Another week dawns, ushering in another full week until the weekend ... What better way to help ease that pain than a brand new Glacial Geek Battle Report?! https://youtu.be/sN2kxbf2qQc This week my Dark Angels take on the Adeptus Mechanicus! The message ended with "return our lost assets." That was how the Adeptus Mechanicus ended a "request" for assistance. The Librarian crumpled up the missive and hand handed it back to the serf who had brought it to him, "What more should we expect from those who sold their souls for machinery?" He walked down the corridor in the Dark Angels Battle Barge towards the quarters of his fellow Epistolary so they could discuss this latest mission. Mars wanted them to drop to this planet and find out what had happened to an Ad Mech force that had stopped responding to communications. Seemed simple enough, but he knew that Mars shared as little as possible with those outside their Cult of the Ommnissiah and anything they said hid layers of secrets. He knew that should they proceed wantonly that the truth behind this "request" would only be discovered when it was too late ... Will the Dark Angels be able to locate and return the lost Adeptus Mechanicus force, or will the secrets of the Ommnissiah prove more deadly than they appear? Watch and find out!

Wow, those AdMech get plenty of shots and they aren't terrible in melee. Definitely a tough army to face. All those Command dice from the Brigade detachment certainly didn't hurt your opponent either. I think some armies will really be able to rock that detachment while others will struggle to fill all the required slots. I've been toying with the idea of making a Dark Angels brigade, but I'm concerned that it dilutes our firepower too much. Those extra CP won't matter if we don't have a chance to hurt something. Anyway, looking forward to seeing more batreps!

Thank you :-D ... Yeah they are pretty brutal! ... I've also been toying with the idea of a DA Brigade ... It would take some considerable work to make happen though!
