FusionHS Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Greetings brothers! I bring news of great victories and an overall success of a campain in the "Underground" sector! En route to a smaller sector to wipe out resistance build up since the last time my Crusade(The Heavy Metal Crusade) crusaded there, we received a priority distress signal from the Underground sector, changed direction and speed with great Zeal! My Crusade consisted of: My Emperor's Champion, and we renewed our vow to Accept any Challenge! No matter the odds! Three squads of Sword Brethren terminators armed with 2 CML each with tank hunters. 2 squads of Crusaders(6/3) in rhinos, armed with BP/CCW, Power fist and Meltagun. A third Crusader squad(6/2) armed with a Plasma gun and plasma cannon. Three Land Speeders armed with Typhoons and Multimeltas. (This was a one day, 3 game, 1750 point tournament. Rather small with only 14 players but with great rewards!) A foul stench was in the air the moment we entered orbit of the planet the signal came from. With zealous haste we made planet-fall and headed to the main hive city. upon reaching the city, we found it in ruins and deserted and we set out to explore. ****[GAME 1]**** [The first game was 2 obj, dawn of war, with a special rule that only HQ's counted as scoring, if you only had one HQ, your most elite unite counted as scoring as well] As the sun started to rise to spread with all our forces out in the ruins and found a daemon ward set up on the other side. We moved towards it, when suddenly a mass of warp rifts opened up! Daemons pored from the foul Immaterium! A massive daemon[a soul-grinder] first tried to emerge, but failed as its rift scattered onto a land speeder and then promptly exploded into colourful chaotic fluids! Next a greater daemon[some kind of named char] emerged right begin our Terminator brothers! Another band of bloodletters did the same, right behind another terminator squad heading to setup a command position(my objective) in the ruins. Lastly another bloodletter sqaud come into real space next to their chaos ward. The greater daemon, taking the Sword Brethren by surprise, spit out deadly acid unto them, killing one brother in its wake! [ending the daemon's first turn, I did go first that game, only moving everything onto the board. The daemon player ruled a 2 for his random deployment and thus failed to bring up his preferred half the first turn] Outraged by not only the presence of these unholy creatures but also the lose of a brother the terminators turned and advanced to the evil being, while the crusaders made speed to the Ward to try and close the warp rifts. The greater daemon and his bloodletters were covered in volleys of Holy Bolter and Missile fire. The warp must have messed with the targeting of the land speeder because they missed almost every shot! Though even with the missed, the fire was simple to much. The great beast to hit after hit and eventually relented and was banished back into the Warp! The blood letters suffered the same fate! [This ended my 2nd turn, leaving only a squad of bloodletters on his objective and my crusaders(who popped smokes this turn) halfway across the board.] The forces of chaos was not beaten just yet, as more rifts opened! Two more soul grinders came into being, as well as a herald of the blasted daemon khorne! But the Emperor was with us this day! Because not a single wicked shot from the daemons harmed us! [Ending his 2nd turn with only unites coming onto the board and missing or just failing to do anything with every shot!] My Crusaders moved full speed again and surrounded the daemons guarding the Ward, was were prepared to get out and assault! Terminator brothers also advanced to the ward, keeping a steady rain of fire on the daemons, land speeders fired all of their weapons at the soulgrinders and Plasma, Missile and bolter fire covered the rest. The filthy daemons could not hope to stand in our Holy presence and all fell, for a moment the city was quite. But this was not to last! [My turn 3 ended in me handing all of my opponent's models back to him in the order they came on the board. He made some insane saves, by making 14 saves on the squad of bloodletters on one volley, not losing a single model! but promptly failed the massive amounts of saves headed his way!] The last of the daemons forced then came in from the warp, another great daemon with his mob of bloodletters came in from the warp as another squad of bloodletters came in from behind our lines! They had not a single thing to say as they saw the Black hoard approaching and they then spread out in hope of taking some ground [An uneventful turn of deep striking...] The Templar moped up the remaining daemons and closed the rifts by burning down the Ward, ending this veil incursion into the domain of The Holy Emperor! We had victory this morning! But the day was far from over, and something sinister was making it's approach! ****[End of Game 1**** Before I continue with this Batrep, does anyone find this interesting? Is it easy to read? and would anyone like to hear what happened afterwards? ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/248891-battle-report/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Severarse Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yep, I'm enjoying it too. More pleeze. Just do a quick read through to catch a few errors and it will be grand.
