I would just like to preface by saying I didnt intend on writing anything, but it was such a hilarious game that I really wanted to tell it.

My army was:

2 wave serpents, scatter laser and holo fields with 5 man DA squad and one had a farseer with anaris.

Only spell I used all game was fortune, i threw all but 1 dice on it every turn.

their armies consisted of, approximately:

2 10 man assault squads with a melta gun and bomb in each and a priest in one.
10 man tac squad with plasma gun
10 man tac with plasma cannon
10 man tac with nothing
5 termies pwrfist assault cannon
1 captain


Im not sure what mission we got, but we each had an HQ worth 3 points to hold.

He setup, and went first, I got a 4 for seizing.

On his first turn he basically just moved up a bit, got an assault cannon shot on my wave serpent and penned it, I rolled a 3 to turn it into a glance.

My first turn was fairly meh as well, I repositioned out of range of the cannons, and shot an assault squad with both tanks and killed 3 guys.


2nd turn He shot at and charged my wave serpent and glanced it once, both tanks are now down 1 hp.

On my 2nd I flew that tank away and repositioned another one. I snap shot the one that ran away and managed to get 7 wounds with all the twinlinked, i killed 4 more in that squad including the priest. I also dropped one squad of DA and my farseer from the tank that remained close to its starting position. They shot at another unit of incoming assault marines and took out 3.

Turn 3, more moving forward, he decided to go for the less reliable 6" move to get hammer of wrath attacks with both units close to my farseers unit. A lucky plasma shot imobalizes my tank on the far side of the field, the guns however are mostly in range of everything with LOS,He kills one DA with pistol fire and then he declares charging with both ofhis assault squads I overwatch the close ones, and the 7" charge ones didnt make it in so they stood there like idiots. My farseer goes first and kills a marine, dire avengers do nothing. He kills 1 dire avenger. and we tie combat.

On my turn I hopped out the DA from the imobile serpent and run them towards that damn plasma gun that crippled me! moved my other serpent into position to shoot at the same squad and to get away from the incoming terminators that are about to charge my farseers squad and help out the assault marines. I killed the majority of that tactical squad and made them run away.

Turn 4, He moved the remaining unit of assault marines to hit my tank that i ran away from the terminators, hoping his meltabomb would do something, it did not btw he shot at my far unit of DA with his squad on the HQ, and mostly flubbed, he did get 2 though. He assaulted with the terminators, i challenged his captain and he declined. I went first and killed 2 terminators, the DA did nothing, the marines killed 2 of the DA, and the termies did nothing.

On my turn i moved my da on his side towards the HQ and his 3 partial tac squads, stood close enough to the runners to make them keep running. I moved my serpent and tank shocked the marines infront, he death or gloried with a melta bomb attack and died for shooting I shot both serpents into the tac squads on his HQ, killed one and weakened the other, the DA shot thme as well. The combat was hilarious, neither me, nor the other 2 guys managed to get a single hit in combat between 3 units.

Turn 5, he moved his 2 remaining assault troops towards the farseers combat and moved his tac squad up the hill to shoot at my DA on the HQ, his runners ran. Assualt went mostly the same, I took 1 wound from an assault troop and killed a terminator, he declined my challenge again.

I moved my DA within 3 of the HQ and 6 of the runners to keep them running, the serpent moved closer to my HQ and to get better shot ta the tac squads. Again both serpents and the DA shot at the 2 tac squads, hes got maybe 3 or 4 guys left on the HQ at this point. I killed one or two more terminators and finally my farseer caught a power fist wound and rolled a 2 and a 3 for his saves. He consolodated his assault marines up the hill onto my HQ

The game goes on, a roll of 4.

his runners ran off the table, thats it for movement. He shot at my DA but missed everything except for one, which i saved with a 6.

on my turn I moved my now lone DA onto the objective and shot at the last guy of a tac squad,. I moved my serpent onto my HQ and tank shocked his units of assault marines off of it.


The game ended! I controled both HQ and had first blood. I had won! I did not expect to win this game. The farseer tanking all that damage for the whole game was awesome haha, combined withdeath or glory and you got yourself a good game ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/605258/7023789.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/605258/7023789.page GMT
