Howdy all,

Being in a military area players come and go often. This is great because there is always a new face, and its interesting to see how they play; and this next game is no exception. Kyle recently arrived here and is a highly competitive player, having participated in ATC and other events, and just arriving locally. This will be a great game.... onto the lists

This list os scary, packing 7 lascannons, and a bazillion strength 5 shots. Top it off with a bunch of bodies, and moving fast as hell, its a lot to deal with. The armageddon trait is also very strong against low ap lists, meaning the vehicles will take some work to take down.

My list is a tweek on the version i played against 4 knights, i removed one nurgling base and swapped the top gun on the knight to make it below 2k for legal reasons lol

More to come....

I think nurgle has advantage. IG list seems rather soft unless he's on waaaay different level than I am. Chimeras are expensive for their role(and these ones are armed with multi lasers...Should at least be heavy bolters. Better weapon for cheaper), 3 missile launchers is expensive soft target and never seen much use for valkyeries except for bullgryn delivery(maybe) and not those. All in all IG lists feels very themed and I can imagine will look awesome well painted but...Well I'm expecting nurgle to eat that list alive.

The IG list is extremely glass-cannony, however, with all the -1 to hit it'll be hard to knock them down without decent rolls. Plus being Armageddon they ignore the -1 AP from the PBC's AND Helverins. Top it off with his extremely fast movement, I may have issues getting where I need to and bring them down; not to mention the extremely large rate of fire hes putting down.

It will be a VERY interesting matchup, I'm really looking forward to it!

-1 to hit isn't that bad when you are on BS3+ though. And that's just for fliers. Chimeras don't have it and are expensive pillboxes with crappy multilaser reducing damage output

Eh... this is assuming the Knights live that long. I mean statistically he should be able to drop the Knight on Turn 1 even with RIS on; but this is a dice game. If he can get the knights early he can outrun the PBC's and Spawns!

Fascinating. Can't wait to see how it goes. Obviously, papa will win

Sadly this game got postponed, my oppponent got his weekends mixed up and has weekend duty :( so ill be playing eldar instead, gonna post it up separately
