Thanks to Adepticon only a few people were in store for some 40k. I ended up getting a rematch with the BT from last time.
Dark Eldar
Archon: Djnn blades, ccw, blaster, Drugs Ghostplate, clone field, soultrap, WWP
Succubus: Agoniser
9 blood brides with shardnets Syrin with Agoniser
4 units of 5 warriors with blasters
10 wytches with shardnets, hekatrix with Agonisers
Cronos with both upgrades
BT
EC
Marshal with SS power weapon
2 units of 10 SM with melta and PF Rhino with stormbolters
5 SM with Las/plas
Razorback
Land speeder with Missiles and Multi-melta
Set up was Table quarters and Kill points. He is still going mech, and I opted for a MSU army so killpoints could hurt us both. I got re rolling wounds drugs.
terrain was sparse ( I chose the corners with no buildings) and only a bridge in the middle to use for cover. He gave me first turn (IDK why) and set everything up. I made the worlds softest death star with my unit of 10 wytches my Archon and succubus
Sathion Lounged in his crystal bathing chambers. He seethed and raged clawing at the bottom to the pool until blood smeared the surface. It had cost more than He had been willing to pay for the regeneration. "Mother" was always....generous with the flesh gauntlet. He hated the leering eyes worse then the poking prodding fingers. A part of his soul was preferred to the price the Ancient Flesh crafting hag asked of him. There was still the Real space raid to attend to. He needed that world, and the souls....and the bodies. "Big daddy the Mutant humans are in position" His succubus whispered from the darkness. He still never figured how she always ended up around when something was going on.
"And the one with the Black sword?"
" He is there big daddy, I've already prayed to the Lord of all pimps to insure your victory."
"Good good. Ready the back hand of vengeance, we leave now! Where is Graton?"
" He took the beasts with him on a search for more slaves, he regrets to inform of his absence beloved." Sathion looked up from his drugged filled pool.
"Beloved you called me? You don't love me, your just love my raiding style." He swore he heared muttered curses from the shadows.
Turn one
DE: Archon moved up to the bridge and opened up the WWP
BT: The Bt move back a few inches, keen on using their range advantage. The land speeder blasts the wytches killing 3 and wounding the succubus. Test is passed.
Sathion landed roughly after jumping from the Backhand of Vengeance. The wytches quickly swarmed around him opening up the portal he had dropped and readjusting his clonefield and armor while he laid there stunned. (I dropped the model on the table and broke his arm off.) The humans took that moment of confusion to fire at the tangle of bodies with Sathion being bodily covered by his succubus.
Turn two
DE only one unit of warriors and the cronos comes through. The Cronos moves over the bridge heading torwards the Marshals' Rhino. He'll either have to waste shots on it or have it run amok. The Archon stuns the land speeder and the warriors wreck the marshals' Rhino. The cronos only manages to kill one BT out of the Marshal's unit It gives the Archon's unit FnP. That's good enough for me.
BT: The marshal and his unit move up and the EC and his unit get out The speeder moves up and targets the warriors. all his firepower pours into the cronos, he ends up only being hurt by bolt pistols, but they all wound, and I fail all my saves, he is killed dead, took the heat off of my Archon though. The warriors lose two to the speeder, break on a 12 and run... it's all happening again.
The first unit of warriors came thourh the webway hualing the chained up cronos. Using the bulk of the beast for cover while they burned one of the human tanks down with darkmatter. Sathion cracked his whip extending it impossibly long ans it uncoiled. It collided sharply with the land speeder that had dared to fired at him. a quick jolt and the machine went haywire, spinning lazily through the air. The cronos started it's energy progection beam. As soon as the powerstarted flowing into the dark eldar, the insect like thing banged clanked and fell dead. The Archon's cursing could be heard over the din of battle
Turn 3
DE:
Everything comes in but the Bloodbrides. The warriors that broke regroup and move up. The Archon and Co move up to get some hands on action going on with the Marshal's unit. Warrior units lance the Rhino and Razorback like infected boils, the land speeder has it's missiles ripped off. In CC The Archon wipes out half the Marshals units thanks to rerolls. The succubus gets way past 3rd base on the marshal and takes his head. Rest of the night walkers pile in on the unit and drag them to the ground. I consolidate back onto the bridge but not far enough to escape the EC.
BT: The Archon's unit is lit up by fire. only for wytches remain. a warrior squad loses a member to a random lascannon shot. the EC charges in and calls out my Archon. Only one attack can get though the clone field that's all that is needed as I fail the 6++ and get insta ganked again. The Archon flubbed all of his attacks and all of the other ladies followed his lead resulting in only 4 dead Templars. The succubus died to No retreat wounds.
Darklance fired took it's toll on the BT forcing them on foot. Sathion led the charge into the nearest unit as it stumbled from the burning wreck. Whipping and backhanding he slaughtered the armored marines as they dug themselves out of the rubble. He never saw the marshal raise up behind him, lifting his sword for a killing blow, he didn't hear the succubus slip quietly behind the marine and slit his throat, slowly ripping the head from the still twitching body. When he turned around all he saw was the bloody kiss she planted on him. "Do some damned work for once!" He snapped and stormed off. Then he saw the monster with the black sword. Calling to him, mocking him. "Big daddy, No!" But it was to late. This time He's be the victor, He'd make this human into his man servant. This time-. His thoughts were cut short ass the Champion did the same spin brought up his dark blade the same way, and sliced Sathion down the same side as before. Seeing him fall the wytches instantly scattered, Save one lone figure standing over the fallen Archon. "Next time your mine!' the succubus screamed and she hauled up the mess that was Sathion and fled. "Pimp down?" whispered the sticken Archon.
"Yes love, pimp down." she said sadly. Sathion's eyes glazed over.
"did I get him?"
"You got him good, now rest". This wound was worse than before, all she could do was run faster.
Turn 4.
DE the Blood brides come in the nick of time. The Land speeder is stripped of it's last weapon and stunned. The blood brides charge into the EC's unit and leaves only him alive despite their best efforts to lose me the game. Lucky for me just as many Bt died from No retreat wounds as from CC. A bride goes down to return attacks.
BT. Another warrior is killed by the las cannon. the warriors pass thier test. In combat the EC does his damn best but is dragged down by the wedding gown wearing madwomen. the Consolidate forward.
The Blood brides saw the Succubuss flee past the Portals other side dashing toward the Humonculi din. "He's fallen the battle field is ours!" They scrreched and screamed as they leaped through the portal. The Marines never stood a chance. Poison daggers binding cords and sticky substance were brought to bear as even the Emperor's Champion himself was subdued and hauled back to the wedding din. The warriors of the Foot clan could only watch slack jawed as the women drug off the most valuable slaves on this planet. Non were foolish enough to stay there for very long. A lone Dark eldar remained after the scouring.
"The pieces are all set Mistress. I await your next command." Graton smiled, He would soon have what he most coveted.
Turn 5+ end game. It's mop up time. the land speeder is immobilized turn five and finally taken down turn 6. The blood brides hit the 5 man las/plas unit for the wipe out.
Victory DE:
Man of the Match. Warriors touting Blasters. I really like the MSU blaster squads. they can drop a land raider, have ok anti troop fire, and claim objectives, all for less than 100 points.
Wussy of the day goes to the Archon. 7 attacks and still get punked by the EC. The Djnn blade didn't even get any hits all battle.
Most feared goes to the EC. First time I've killed him in like 10 years, Bastard.
