mughi3 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 We set up a nice dense urban table this time around. I was once again running my IA10 salimanders seige army list. HQ .MOTF w/PW .bray'arth ashmantle(dang thats a fine looking model, i need to get it http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/SALA...ANTLE_BODY.html ) Troops .dread tallon-X3 ironclads .tac squad (5) w/melta bomb Elite X3 las missile dreads w/EA Heavy .land raider achillies w/seige shield His list was infantry IG, designed as city fighters. after a quick look at his list i had him tweek it a bit because he had spent much of his special and heavy weapons cost on things that would struggle against AV 12+ so i had him add a load of las cannons and meltas His list had straken, a LR demolisher with las/melta sponsons and well, lots and lots of IG. http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/ka72411.jpg We rolled up DOW with a single objective in each deployment zone. It turned out to be a pretty brutal game, with so many troops it was hard for me to resist the temptation to to use all my heavy flamers as it would leave my dreads stuck out in the open. My achhiles parked on my objective he used marbo to try and get it off but a multi melta ended marbos amitions. straken managed to drop one ironclad the others fell to shooting as did one fo my venerable. Bray'arth was pretty much carving a path through his entire force but his storm trooprs saved the day with a risky table edge drop in behind bray'arth managing to kill him with a well placed melta hit. The achillies was reaping a large harvest killing the lions share of his force including chasing no less than 3 units of troops off his objective. in the end he still managed to move a unit from his far flank to my left within capture range and keep them there on the last turn giving us a hard fought but reasonable tie. I lost exactly half my force, he was down a bit more than half, now for some pics http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/kb72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/kc72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/kd72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/ke72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/kf72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/kg72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/kh72411.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/ki72411.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234909-armor-vs-the-horde/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 That was mighty honorable of you to help even the odds with your opponents list, there needs to be more players like you :rolleyes: Nice report as always Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234909-armor-vs-the-horde/#findComment-2836818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mughi3 Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 That was mighty honorable of you to help even the odds with your opponents list, there needs to be more players like you :) Nice report as always I play for fun social activity and i want to see cool stuff on the table. it's a reason why i have given up on playing in tournaments, as they tend to draw the kind of people i would rather not play against. A hard fought game with the outcome in doubt tends to be far more fun than cub stomping or getting stomped in short order.

rpnightsend Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Agreed with basswave. Although, in defense of tournaments, sometimes it is fun to get a real competitive game in once in awhile Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234909-armor-vs-the-horde/#findComment-2864954 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maleficum Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 That was mighty honorable of you to help even the odds with your opponents list, there needs to be more players like you :) Nice report as always I'll add my sentiments and say that I would truly enjoy a game with you, mughi3. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234909-armor-vs-the-horde/#findComment-2874146 Share on other sites More sharing options...
