Brother Chaplain Ryld Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Hail Brethren, I bring news of victory for the Sons of Dorn and Guilliman against the foul traitors of the dark gods. Our victorious brothers, led by Marshall Didier Grimwald, and the honoured Ultramarines led by none other than their Chapter Master Lord Calgar met the forces of chaos on the desert planet of Jondis IV. The traitors had 6 mighty bastions full of Traitor marines, one was sundered by our Firestorm. Several Plague Marines also died under the preliminary attack. We also unleashed the Teleport Barrage, killing 7 Thousand Son marines. Our assault marines, led by Chaplain Von Goad, landed in close to their Bastions, assaulting the Plague Marines defending it and wiping them out to a man. Our brothers were then cut down as a Land Raider full of Possessed marines assaulted them, their power weapons rending our power armour useless. The Traitors were not without surprises of their own. 4 Land Raiders arrived in reserve via our own drop zone, behind our lines. They unloaded their filthy cargo onto our Infantry and support vehicles. If not for the timely intervention of our Assault Terminators and the Ultramarines Terminator Squad, our line would have been over run. I hear by recommend these brave warriors for commendation. Transmition ends. Wow, what a game. It was our first Planetstrike game and we hope to have a few more in the next few weeks. My Assault Terminators did really well. I misjudged my assault, and they fell short of assaulting 6 Bezerkers and a Chaos Lord in Terminator Armour. That squad and 10 Slaaneshi Marines led by Lucius the Eternal assaulted my Terminators (4 claws, 3 hammers), EC, 10 Initiates with CC weapons and my Marshall with Lightning Claws. My hammers took all the power weapon saves, which killed one. I lost a LC terminator to a failed armour save and the EC took one wound. In return I killed all the bezerkers with my LC termies and the EC did 2 wounds on the Khorne lord. My Marshall killed Lucius outright and my Initiates and Hammers killed most of the 10 Slaaneshi marines. The rest failed to stay in combat and although I didn’t catch them, I charged them next turn and finished them off. It was a sweet victory over Chaos. I think if they had taken more troops and less armour we would have more trouble. As it was, being able to deepstrike infantry into the table meant we could capture objectives while they struggled to break through our rear guard to remove our troops from claiming the bastions.

Brother Grius Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Very cool. Sounds like it was a blast. 4 Land Raiders is a little scary. Great job destroying the foul enemies of the Emperor.

Brother Chaplain Ryld Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 Very cool. Sounds like it was a blast. 4 Land Raiders is a little scary. Great job destroying the foul enemies of the Emperor. Cheers, and it was 5 Raiders. One came in from a table edge with Posessed, and 4 came in from our deployment. They smashed my bike and attack bike squad, but my two Tri Las preds immobilised two of them in turn three. We only played four turns unfortunately. Thanks for your report Ryld. Good job! Suffer not the unclean. It was so funny. They were laughing when their 4 raiders entered in the same turn in our drop zone. Then two squads got smashed by my EC, Marshall, assault terminators and Initiates and a big squad of Slaaneshi Terminators got hammered by the Ultra Terminator squad. All they had left was 10 Iron Warriors and some raiders. It wasn't funny after that. ;) Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/187194-planet-strike-report/#findComment-2214614 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Chaplain Ryld Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 You should consider it. The codex is a good one. Personally I think GW does better when it has supplements for it's main games. (Space Hulk, Necromunda, Man O War etc) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/187194-planet-strike-report/#findComment-2216860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
