mughi3 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 So i have been dying to get a game in....i seem to always be in other games when our BFG players throw down..... my buddy who plays tau has been waiting to give his new and improved FAQ 2010 fleet list a spin. My list was abbaddon planet killer repulsive with extra shield and improved lances styx 2 devs 2 carnages http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/ga30412.jpg his list had a mix of 2 custodian battleships and variants of protectors and emmisaries..with a llone warden filling out the points. http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gb30412.jpg the guys is a tau nut....he recently got these for his 40K army http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gc30412.jpg The battle we rolled up was interestingly (and appropriately) enough-exterminatus. i was the attacker (duh) Being abaddon was in command he was bold and charged in guns blasing. i managed to get 3 shots off with the armageddon gun. the first cleared a path though his ordinance. the second while hitting multiple ships did little damage(bad dice) i took a heavy hit back after this turn nearly crippling the planet killer with a crit 12 roll...fortunately he rolled low for extra damage. the turn 3 combined salvo of my cruisers crossing his T and the backup armageddon gun shot. blew a huge hole in his 2 squadrons who were nice enough to line up for me. the lead flotillas custodian detonated and added to the damage. payback was swift and saw me loose both my heaviest ships however it allowed my cruisers to manuever away and liuttered the area with many blast markers. He then focused on my carnages which allwed my devestations and styx to pummel his fleet to scrap... i toook out his second custodiam and 2 more protectors. .... When the smoke cleared i had the styx and 1 dev at full strength and the other dev crippled. he had a single crippled protector which was running away. the planet killer may not have made it to the planet but the combined fleet decimated the tau resistance i guess chaos has to do the exterminatus the hard way...... http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gd30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/ge30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gf30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gg30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gh30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gi0412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gj30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gk30412.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i112/mughi3/batreps/gl30412.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/248299-lotsa-boom/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
