mughi3 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Me and a friend had decided we had not done an apocalypse game in such a long time. Usually they devolve into huge time consuming affairs because to many players are involved so we decided to do a 1 on 1 3K per side battle. He had his impressive lego eldar vampire flier, 3 falcons, 2 prism, 1 wave serpent eldrad, a farseer, prince uriel and the dire avenger exarch. along with some wraithlords. his asset was webway gate which also counted as one of the 2 ojectives in the game. I ran movie marines 3 sargeants, 1 missile launcher marine, 2 flamer marines and 10 marines with 2 las cannon razorbacks my asset was outflank which i used one razorback and both flamer guys inside it for. between my outflank, super-krak missiles and my S10 AP1 60" range las cannon shots i manage to take out all but one tank. i touched his flier with my rending bolter fire(thing assault cannon with better range) but he made his holofield saves. At the end of the game i was left with 2 sarges, and 3 marines. he still had his flier and an immobilised falcon. he outstripped me on points, but i held his webway gate for a slim victory. the game was massive death and destruction and good humor like apocalypse games hsould be played. i actually forgot to put a few models out so i was several hundred points under but it still turned out to be a fun game. http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc1.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc2.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc3.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc4.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc5.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc6.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc7.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc8.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/epc9.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196229-apocalypse-epicness/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ntin Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 The lego is rather impressive. Is there a newer version of Movie Marines or was it the old rule set?

travh20 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 That is an APOC battle? Looks like a 500 point battle to me. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196229-apocalypse-epicness/#findComment-2338904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 That is an APOC battle? Looks like a 500 point battle to me. Its Movie Marines, thats why. 1 Tac squad of MM = 2k army I believe.

mughi3 Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 The lego is rather impressive. Is there a newer version of Movie Marines or was it the old rule set? I think it is the old one bolters are 36" range assault cannons with rending marines a toughness 6 with 2 wounds and a 3++ save each one is a one man army. each one is the price of 2 1/2 base terminators missile launcher and flamer marines cost more. and the sarge is a land raider for initiative 7, 4 wounds, chainswords (gets 2d6 armor pen and counts as a power weapons that doubles his 5 base attacks) & bolt pistol(regular assault cannon with rending) Its Movie Marines, thats why. 1 Tac squad of MM = 2k army I believe. basically 6 marines, flamer marine, and mmissile marine with a sarge and a razorback is a 1,500 ;point army.

travh20 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 cool, I guess with those rules I could field a 20,000 point force with what I have now. IT would also be a quick way to get into Appoc and not have to buy a bunch of stuff. Is the Movie marines an official Appoc thing or something someone made up? How legit is it to just go into a shop and say i am running movie marines?

How legit is it to just go into a shop and say i am running movie marines? About as legit as anything else since the rules were released in a white dwarf from GW. granted like anything else your player group has to be cool with it. Although it would make it actually feasable to put infantry on the table in a world of superheavy tanks, titans and D weapons.
