Friendly Holiday Tournament

[AnImA8]

Howdy errbody! This will be the first of (hopefully) many battle reports that I put up here on B&C. I'm going back to my hometown for a week for the holidays and while I'm back I'll be hoping to kick some butt with the new Grey Knights. I've been a 40k player since the end of 3rd, playing mainly Eldar (dabbling in Tau, and SM's here and there.) In 4th I caught glimpse of some amazing looking models (turned out to be the GK Termies) that I had never seen before and quickly fell in love with the Daemonhunters book. In particular I've always loved the elite, "300"-esque feel of the army and I really took to the Way of the Water Warrior style. Now with the release of the new codex I'm back in the game and ready to serve the holy emperor!

 

My friends and I will be playing a tournament at 1850 pts. We've got some new players to the group, and a few of my old 3rd ed buddies. The particular armies I'll be facing will be 2 Ork players (both fairly balanced mix of mech/slogging), a new Tyranids player (fairly fast hormagaunt style with drops and Trygons), a Chaos player (Emperors Children/Dual Lash), and a new Space Wolves player. The best part about this is that while I can expect great games from my long-time 40k buddies, I can't take the new players lightly in any regard since I know them to be EXTREMELY intelligent, tactically-minded people (who I've heard have been really tearing up the local scene.) SO I'm really looking forward to some great games. Hopefully I'll get to play each of these guys, but since I'll realistically only have like half a week, I may not.

 

So here's the list I'll be bringing:

 

Grand Master: /w incinerator, and 3x servo skulls: 195 pts

Librarian: /w sanctuary, the summoning, and teleport homer: 175 pts

 

Strikes (10): /w 2x psycannons, nemesis daemon hammer, and psybolt ammunition: 250 pts

Strikes (10): /w 2x psycannons, nemesis daemon hammer, and psybolt ammunition: 250 pts

 

Storm Raven: /w twin-linked assault cannon, twin-linked multi-melta: 205 pts

Storm Raven: /w twin-linked assault cannon, twin-linked multi-melta: 205 pts

Interceptors (10): /w 2x psycannons, nemesis daemon hammer, and psybolt ammunition: 310 pts

 

Dreadnought: /w heavy flamer, and warp stabilization field: 130 pts

Dreadnought: /w heavy flamer, and warp stabilization field: 130 pts

 

Total Points/Kill Points: 1850/9 pts

Total Models: 22 infantry, 10 jump infantry, 2 skimmers, and 2 walkers

And that's all for now. I'll post the first batrep once it's done in about half a week.

 

Hope you all have happy holidays! :blink:

Not sure why you would report yourself but I thank you anyway. ;)

 

No Orkish nonesense here thank you. Put a rough list up of an opponent as a description in a battle report sure but no more than this.
