VAGABOND Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I took part in a tournament up in Perth, Scotland yesterday. I was lucky to get a space as someone pulled out so me and a few guys from Glasgow traveled to Perth early doors yesterday morning. After my recent success with my Deathwing at last months Throne Of Skulls I decided to take them up here. I got the rules pack the following night and had a quick read through it and it said to bring your best army... so I did. I played 3 excellent games against some great players. I don't have battle reports but I've taken plenty of pictures. I tabled all my opponents in Turn 5 and was the only player with 3 wins which mean't I won overall and was almost up for Best Painted Army but my mate won with his Eldar. I was happy to have did so well so I'm a very happy chappy. I won 20quid in gift vouchers so I bought a Codex for my new project... Pictures to follow of yesterdays games will be up tonight.

krewl Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Looking forward to the reports and pictures then, and grats on the convincing win! I also had a tournament last saturday, but in contrast to the other 2 earlier I did a lot worse, I actually even gave up game 3 in after turn 2, it was that bad. The list is fine, but that day the dice just hated me. After T2 I was down to 11 termies, Belial, and next turn I would have lost 2 more squads, the 3 RW bikes, the AB and a speeder. In return I killed one Stormraven... Losing guys left and right to dangerous terrain, lots of dreaded 1's and missing everything but 2 glanced which where coversaved will do that to you.. Still love the wing though, and you can not win all games every tournament :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242593-oops-i-did-it-again/#findComment-2932951 Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAGABOND Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 I've had a look through the pictures and some of them have came out a little :cussty in terms of quality. The games I played were all set and I was the only player to win all 3 games and table all my opponents in less than an hour. Now onto the photos, sorry for the quality of these guys. Still can'r believe i won despite only having 2 hours sleep the night before.. that's dedication. :angry: Game 1: Seize Ground. 5 Objectives. Spearhead Looking at this army at the start of the game I germinally thought this guy was gonna blow me to pieces and man was I right. I lost 12 Terminators by Turn 2 and that was only 2+ was letting me down and I thought it was gonna be all over. Fully Mechanised Marine list with 3 Preds, Rhinos, Razorbacks, Bikes & Speeders. He made a mistake of turboboosting his bikes round my flank and I had a Terminator Squad walk on from Turn 2 and chew they're way through his left flank before being killed. My Command Squad came on and conga lined between 2 objectives. Everytime I fired a Cyclone his tanks were blown apart and things only got worse for him. I had 4 Objectives held and he had near enough nothing left. http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27111121.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27111121.jpg Game 2: Capture and Control. Pitched Battle. Next up was a good mate of mine Graeme who I've played twice before and beaten so he was out for revenge with all Bike Marine list. This the mission I hate because I never know how it's gonna turn out and it's been nicknamed ''The Draw Game'' since it tends to end in a draw... well not today! Graeme put up a good fight and tried to grab the objectives in the last minutes of the game but i wasn't to be. I thoroughly enjoyed this match as we always have a laugh http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27131312.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27140305.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27144919.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27144928.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27142133.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27144946.jpg Game 3: Annihilation. Dawn of War. This was the final game of the day and I was absolutely shattered by this point.Before this game the guy I played was standing with his mate discussing how to take my army down with Murderous Hurricaine and by trying to outshoot me. The guy had a fairly standard Space Wolves list and currently second top player, time to teach this little <_< how the Deathwing roll. I still can't believe he literally fed me units in a Kill Point mission. Not shown in the first pic was the Drop Pod that came in with Grey Hunters.. an 2 easy Kill points. After I dropped in a Deathwing Squad to deal with his 2 Long Fang Squads and their transports the game was over. By turn 4 I was 8 Kill Pints up and he had 1. http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27162050.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27164800.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Ryan-Ess/2011-11-27164827.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i238/Rya...11-27170019.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242593-oops-i-did-it-again/#findComment-2934121 Share on other sites More sharing options...

krewl Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Lol at the song. :P Nice looking Deathwing you have there, they shure look imposing the way that you posed them. Do you have a close up your speeders? I think the Missiles on those looked cool aswell.
