This tourney seems a lot to write in one post, so I will divide it into 3 (one for each battle I took part in). This is NOT meant to get me more posts, I don't care about post count.
This was a small tourney that took place at my lfgs (hence the thread name). 1000 point armies were allowed. This was the army I used, details can be found in the Army lists topic under the thread "1000 point Orks for possible tourney:"
1 Warboss
1 Big Mek w/ SAG
5 Lootas
20 Sluggas
20 Sluggas
20 Shootas
2 Killa Kanz
1 Deff Dread
I took part in 3 battles, here is the first one.
FIRST BATTLE
Game Mode: Pitched Battle
Victory Conditions: Capture and Control
Opponent's Army: Tyranids
From what I recall, here was his list:
3 Tyranid Warriors
3 Tyranid Warriors
8 Genestealers
1 Lictor
15 Devourgaunts (?)
15 Devourgaunts (He refers to them as that, so I'll stick with it)
Yeah, it was small.
TURN 1, Orks
We roll off for Initiative, Orks stole it. 4 Objectives were set up. I advance all of my Boyz, Kanz, and the Dread. My SAG fired at my opponent's Genestealers and took out 2. My Lootas fired at one Warrior squad and inflicted 2 wounds.
Tyranids
Advances all of his units, and sets up his Genestealers for a charge. One Slugga mob was charged by the 'Stealers, luckily the Warboss was with them. About 5 Boyz and 3 'Stealers were killed.
TURN 2, Orks
Advanced my Boyz, Kanz, and Dread. Dread got a good Run in. Called the WAAAGH!, and all the Ork Boyz followed suit. Shootas captured an Objective. SAG fired at the same Warrior squad that my Lootas fired at. The shot scattered off but killed about 3 Gaunts. Lootas fired at the Warriors again and killed off 1. In the 'Stealer/Warboss assault, 4 more Boyz were killed but the 'Stealers were wiped out. The Warboss and his Boyz consolidated toward an Objective.
Tyranids
Opponent rolls to get the Lictor on the field, and it doesn't show up. Advanced all of his units forward. Now in range for his Devour guns, he began firing on one of my Slugga mobs (the one without the Boss). Killed around 4 Boyz. He fired on the Mob with the 'Boss, and killed about 3 more, with the Orks passing their morale test. The Gaunt swarm who fired at the 'Boss charged the other Slugga mob. Gaunts killed 4 more Boyz while my Boyz killed around 5.
TURN 3, Orks
Advanced all my Sluggas, Kanz, and the Dread. The Shootas stayed back and held the Objective, while the Warboss and his Boyz captured another. The SAG fired at the same Warriors again, getting a strength of about 7. It scattered far, but with the use of an Ammo Runt, it came on target, killing 1 more Warrior. Lootas fired at the other Gaunt swarm, killing 2. The Kanz turned their attention to the other Warrior squad, firing at it and killing 1. The 'Boss fired his Combi-Skorcha at the 1 Warrior, catching another Gaunt in the template. The Warrior came out fine but the Gaunt was killed. The Dread was within assault range of a Gaunt swarm and ignited BOTH of its Skorchas on them, killing around 6. The Dread charged that same Gaunt squad, killing 3 more. The Gaunts weren't packing anything capable of destroying the Dread.
Tyranids
Opponent rolled off to get his Lictor, and succeeded. It came up on target between my Lootas and my Big Mek. The 1 Warrior joined the nearby assault, which ended with 3 more dead Boyz and a wiped out Gaunt swarm. The other Warrior squad joined the assault with the Dread, giving the squad a chance to stop the Dread. The Warriors took out a CC arm and Immobilized the Dread. The Lictor decided to charge the Mek, missing many of it's rolls to-hit and failing all of it's to-wound rolls. The Mek fought back and killed the beast.
Turn 4, Orks
The Mek and the Lootas advanced for they had nothing to shoot at. My Warboss and his Boyz and my Shootas held their Objectives. The Dread failed to hit the Gaunts. The Kanz attempted to join in, but it was a tight squeeze, the was literally no room for them. My free Slugga mob ran back to try grabbing another Objective.
Tyranids
The other Warrior squad failed to do anything against the Dread. There was nothing else they could do.
TURN 5
The game ended, resulting in victory for da Orks! WAAAGH!!
Game Results
Tyranids: Loss, with 0 Captured Objectives
Orks: Win, with 2 Captured Objectives
imo, a crushing victory.
To be continued...
