Table



Objectives( I really need to find or paint some objective markers that show up well in pictures. Would really make it easier for everyone to see.)



Aegis


Grey Knights win the roll off and give first turn the the DA.

DA Deployment


I decide to infiltrate my scouts so I can see where my opponent deploys first. Belial and Libby attach to the DW squad with only 1 TH&SS and go into DW assault along with the other termie squads.
Tacs go next to the objective on the top right of the table from my view and the speeders and Lazorback deploy far enough back to be able to hopefully out range his army.

My opponent deploys all vehicles behind the ageis defence line.Cotaez is with the psyker squad in the chimera. The purifiers combat squad with the 4 psycannons staying behing the aegis and the others in the razorback. The dreadknight deploys agressively with a view to threaten my objective. Storm raven with assasin squad and Inquisitor go into reserve.

I then infiltrate my scouts centrally.






My opponent declines to seize and we're off!!!



TURN 1
Spoiler:


DA
So I have what I think is a cunning plan. I am going to alpha strike his deadknight and get two victory points straight off the bat. My deathwing will all deep strike out of range of his shooting and then walk towards the middle objective whilst hopefully destroying his troops transports and stranding them in the open.

The plan begins well with all deathwing squads landing safely. The landspeeders move to get shots on the dreadknight as does the Lazorback.




Belials squad opens up scoring 1 plasma wound and 4 regular wounds but alas the Dreadknight saves everything. The scouts score 1 rend and 1 wound but again invulnerable and armour saves are made. The lazback also scores a wound but 3+cover is made. Then the rest of my army fires away and manages to score 3 unsaved wounds leaving the Dreadknight with one wound and a very bad temper! .

GK

With nightfighting the GK armour decides to mostly stay still. His razorback with purifiers does decide to move forward and passes its difficult terrain test. His dreadknight decides to shunt forward to try and get first blood by flaming the scouts and does so with ease.



DA-0 GK-1


TURN 2
Spoiler:


DA

I shuffle my deathwing forward to get into range of his armour hoping to try and salvage my plan. The Lazback lines up a shot on the dreadknight and the typhoons also manoever to get shots on the armour.




The lazback opens up on the dreadknight getting past its invuln and kills it. How ever the rest of my shooting (12 krak missiles) fail to damage a single razorback or chimera
Bye bye Mr Dreadknight!


GK

With the help of the comms relay the storm raven turns up to smash some faces. It comes in straight up the middle towards my lazorback and Landspeeder. The purifier razorback again moves forward and into range of my foremost landspeeder (silly silly me)
(I know the dice turn counter says 3 but I had turned it before remembering to take photos!)


The storm raven lights up the lazorback with its multi-melta and the speeder closest my table edge with the twin inked lascannon. The lazorback ends up beind shaken and stunned (lucky me) and the landspeeder is only shaken (very lucky me !) The razorback is unable to penatrate the other speeder


TURN 3

Spoiler:


DA

My termintor train again shuffles forward by not much. I didnt want to get pie plated by Coatez's unit. That would be a STR 8 AP1 large blast template and 3 STR 7 AP2 templates that ignore cover and are twin linked. GULP So I try again to focus fire on his ride and stay out of range.

My snap firing speeder backs up to shoot at the storm raven whilst my other one moves forward to shoot cotaez's ride

Shooting starts off very well indeed! I roll a hit with my snap firing Lazorback. My opponent elects to evade, I then penetrate his armour and he fails his evade cover save. Woohooooo! Sadly I then roll a 1 on the pen chart. I then fire my snap firing landspeeder and again get a hit AND a pen! Sadly this one is saved by evade.

I then open up on Coateaz's ride and yet again fail to pen it with 10 krak missiles.... This is not going well.


GK

His Xenos inquisitor uses prescience on his own squad and cotaez uses both his powers on his own squad. The raven goes into hover mode and moves over to the terminator clump unloading its deadly cargo and pivoting to face the speeders and lazorback at the same time. His razorback again moves forward to threaten my home objective and to possibly get linebreaker. All of his vehicles behind the aegis use this moment to move up and seize objectives and get into range of my terminators.


The storm raven explodes the lazback and the Purifer razorback wrecks the nearest speeder. (Again silly me for leaving it in range)


His assasin squad assaults the nearest deathwing squad with predictable results. He wipes the squad and only looses one crusader.




TURN 4

Spoiler:


DA

Its looking grim but I decide to make my move on the middle objective while also assaulting those pesky assasins with Belial's unit. I should have moved my other deathwing unit unit as support was quite scared of that large pie plate.

Shooting again starts off well with the tac squad killing 5 of the deathcult assasin unit. Belials squad split fire between the storm raven and the assasins doing nothing to the raven but mowing down a few assasins. The rest of my shooting goes into razorbacks but I can only strip a few hullpoints here and there and weapon destroy one heavy bolter.

Belials unit then multi charge the storm raven and whats left of the assasins. The Inquisitor challenges and my librarian steps up.


The assasin unit dies and I imbolise the storm raven. I also lose a termie. I get a 1 for my consolidation and cant spread out very well.

GK

The razorbacks move forward some and so do the purifiers with psycannons that I've all but forgotten about. The purifiers in the razorback move and go flat out towards my objective.

Shooting and coateaz's unit go after Belials squad. After look out sirs the librarian + CML termie die. The lascannon on the storm raven kills the landspeeer in my deployment zone.


TURN 5

Spoiler:

DA

Its at this point I realise my mistake with my full deathwing squad. They are now stuck in no man's land and are unable to get to the middle objective. I decide to give it a go anyways and run them. They only get a 3.Speeder shoots at Cotaez's ride but cant hurt it. Belials squad run into the rocks onto the objective and pray that they can ignore the inevitable barrage of ap1 and 2 weapons heading their way.


GK

The purifiers move up and get out to dakka my tacticals. The psycannon purifiers move up to dakka Belials unit and the last razorback infront of Coteaz's chimera moves up to dakka the final landspeeder.

Shooting starts with me denying the witch on Belial's unit from his psykers str8 ap1 pie plate.. YAY!!!!!!! The happiness is short lived as the plasma cannons put 4 wounds on the squad and I fail 3 3+invulns on Belial to give up warlord. The Psycanonnons fire at the same squad killing one member leaving just the lightning claws guy. The Razorback blows up the final landspeeder. The purifiers threatening my objective kill one member of the tac squad.


We roll for a turn 6 and get it.

At this point we call it, I have no way to defend my home objective and there is no way my lone claws termie will hold the middle objective..

CRUSHING VICTORY TO THE GREY KNIGHTS!!!!

Thanks alot for the game Rain it was great fun and you played it pretty damn good!
