I think the title says it all. I'll add some details about my Tyranids vs Khorne battle from last night (including a few photos) later on. Anyone else want to report on last night's games. I'd be particularly interested in that game with the Warhound... |

This was a 2,000pts game of tyranids vs Khorne. I managed to fit 40 genestealers into my force, while still having room for lots of other beasties of various sizes. The first picture was taken just after deployment. http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/nn156/k...08/Image050.jpg Opposite me were about 30 Khorne Bezerkers, a lord with a bunch of terminators, and the thing I was most worried about - a pair of defilers. I also knew a Bloodthirster would be appearing at some point. Due to some really good fleet rolls, there were assaults happening in the first turn, but it was my shooting that did most of the early work - destroying a defiler! http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/nn156/k...08/Image059.jpg The Bloodthirster showed up mid-way through the game, but got stuck in combat with a big unit of gaunts - keeping him nice and occupied while the genestealers set about dealing with those marines. We called it a day after 3 turns - and a lot of casualties on both sides - working out it was a tyranid victory by looking at what was left alive (by this point I had killed the chaos lord as well). http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/nn156/k...08/Image060.jpg Very enjoyable game (and I'm not saying that just because of the result!) |

the titan game was rather brief lol by turn 3 dudley had given up as i had kicked the smeg outta his army lol. eventually they managed to destroy the titan and 4 bersekers and a daemon prince (well i actually caught the daemon prince and 2 of the men in my plasma blast gun shot) so i won in the end (by miles) even thought they had 1000pts more than i did lol |

Last night saw my 1,000pts of my Eldar wiped out by Chaos. Avatar (although looking pretty) was useless, and lost 3 wounds in a single round of shooting. The Wraithlord managed to miss just about every shot it took - and it was supposed to be one of the best shots in the army. Then it got turned into a Chaos Spawn. Ouch. (although it probably deserved it after that performance. Dark Reapers did well when they fired - wiped out a squad in 1 turn, as did the Dire Avangers - so it wasn't entirely one-sided. The game was a lot of fun, (I know Jimmy enjoyed it!) and the outcome was not certain until very near the end, but by that point, the strongest of the Chaos units were still alive, and I had nothing left to damage them. It's also made me appreciate my marines a lot more. If I were to play this game again, I'd probably use a Farseer instead, and try to give him stuff to prevent my guys turning into spawn... |

Indeed, there are no powers that can stop psycic powers. Your best bet would be mind war as you can pick out independent characters and hopefully kill the pesky sorcerer before he can get to you I've never used it myself as my whole Eldar is based around shooting so I don't intend to let the enemy get that close to me. *Rhino looks down sight of ranger long rifle |

Jimmy - I think we agreed to call tooday's game a draw, as it was pretty difficult after only 2 turns to see a clear winner / loser - good fun though. Andrew was saying to me after that perhaps smaller scale games - eg 2 players a side might work a bit better / be a bit quicker. Perhaps we should suggest that to the others for next time - it would be easy to have 3 games running on slightly smaller tables. I'll be putting up my thoughts and pics of the game in the 'Apocalypse reports' thread later - hopefully others will do the same. |

Ouch - beaten by Dark Angels last night. I hate the Master of the Ravenwing! Seriously - the amount of firepower he has is unbelievable! (What will he do if they make defensive weapons S4?) Still learning how to best use Drop Pods, but one of them (BS2) manages to gun down a Deathwing Terminator when the rest of my army failed miserably! The loss of my poor sniper scouts on turn 1 - why do people hate those poor guys so much - maybe I need more of them!!! And both my predators gone early on! Glad I didn't bother with the Whirlwinds this time - they're not much use against power armour. |

the master of the raven wing can be on a jet bike, so it has bolters and plas cannon. |
