Another competitive battle report, this time it is FMC daemons against Grant Theft Auto's Seer Council Deldar. BTW, this will be the first time I am running Be'lakor in an experimental build:

Hi,

I just dicovered your thread with all these battle reports in them and I have to say I am enjoying them immensely. I do not often get to play games so to see your reports and get some insights into how games are played has been awesome.
I especially have to commend you on the quality of your battle reports and especially the pictures as it helps bring it all 'alive' for me.
Thanks again Oh and happy new year, may 2014 be a great gaming year for you.

Thanks! It is readers like you who inspire me to write more battle reports. There will be plenty more batreps coming up in 2014. For 2014, I plan on attending more tournaments so you will be seeing more coverage on the tournament scene for the new year.

Cool, I really look forward to it.
The best part, for me, is seeing your thought process, such as the deathstar reports where you are faced with numerous choices (Paladinstar vs Pinkstar comes to mind) and why you made the tactical decisions that you did.

I also like the fact that you are not arrogant in your battle reports or derogatory to others in you reports. You are confident and you giive good reasoning behind what you do.
You also acknowledge the prowess of your opponent and I can see that you use these experiences gained from each game to learn to develop too.
I kinda hope that makes sense.

I am not an experienced gamer and not at tournament/ competitive level, but the tips I can pick up from you really do help.
I run Space Wolves and Grey Knights myself and I am trying to put a good general all comers list together as my regular, opponent has atleast 1500-200 points of each army type in 40K but these 2.

And he hates Space Pups.

Anyhoo Thanks a lot & keep the reports coming.

Ok, I've got a bunch of new stuff out. First of all, I wrote an article about the new Tyranids:

Man this topic is awesome, so many well played games, described in very accesible and clear way (due to very accurate photos). I admire your work. Great job- keep posting. I kope that many crons' reports will come up

Thanks. You're not going to see a whole lot of Necron reports, at least not my competitive Wraithwing necrons, unless I take them to a tournament. They're just too strong for casual play.

However, I will play my Fun-crons every once in a while.

Coming up soon, you will see a special "Aerial Dogfight" match between my Necron Airforce against a friend's Imperial Guards Air Cavalry list. Let the fireworks begin and the airplanes fall. Lol.

Ok, it's been a while since I've updated this thread. I've got a bunch of games out, including my tournament experiences at the LVO GT:
