8 grey hunters

pw, mg, ws, mow, rhino

 

9 grey hunters 135

speeder with multimelta 60

 

speeder with multimelta 60

 

5 longfangs 75

2 plasmacannons, 2 heavybolters 50

razorback las/plas 75

 

my opponent used bloodthirster, Slanesh bullwinkle dude, 20 horrors with changeling, 2 sets of 20 bloodletters, 6 flamers, soulgrinder, 10 dogs with karnak.

 

There were some imperial planetstrike buildings around but still good los on the table. Mission was 3 objectives with dawn of war. I put both objectives on one side of the board. This allowed my scouts to only not be useful on a 1 in 6 since one side of the board had an objective in either deployment zone. I let him go first and he brought down dogs, 1 bloodletter, bloodthrister, and flamers.

 

I had on 2 rhinos of the table 1 with Njal.

 

Highlights of the game.

 

Drop pod down and get 5 wounds from plasma bolter squad that kills bloodthirster on first turn. Used minimal shooting to kill some flamers but were able to charge them with the rhino squads to get magical movement away from bloodletter threat.

 

It took 2 multimeltas and 4 twin las cannons to take out soulgrinder in 1 turn of fire.

 

My opponent did not like the tempests wrath power at all. I only killed 3 horrors from this but it was fun to annoy with it.

 

I used a wolfstandard after whittling down a squad of bloodletters to 10 to knock them down to 8 before I charged. This allowed me to wipe them out. The big winner here was the wolf standard. That thing is nasty. You really get the hits and wounds in when you need it.

 

I brought the other bloodletter squad down to 9 before my wolfscouts came in and got wiped out but also wiping out the letters.

 

The bullwinkle killed the squad that Njal was with in 2 turns but wound up dying in the process.

 

By the fifth turn my opponents army was tabled. I had 2 troop choices left and most of my vehicles.

 

Grey hunter squads are really good. Use wolf standards and mark of wulfen to really lay on the hurt. My favorite part about the standard is when rolling to wound with a powerfist. It is so handy to be able to nearly garrantee a powerfist wound on someone.

 

Anyway, more games tomorrow.
