<OH MIGHTY THREAD, I SUMMON THEE FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE!>

 

This week my Death Company have killed:

 

45 Pink Horror

A blob of 20 Guardsmen

Commisar Yarrik (3 times in one game! >_<)

A Haruspex

A Flying Hive Tyrant.

 

It's been a busy week.

 

DC

 

 

After being reduced to 3 men ( one hammer, one power sword, and a Librarian), the death company charged and killed 3 Deathwing Terminators and one Terminator Armor Inquisitor. Hammer and Librarian survived to kill a Rune Priest before the Wolf Lord slaughtered them.

Today my death company killed:

A 16 man blob of Kroot

A 6 man squad of Fire Warriors

And a Riptide

Initial squad was comprised of 15 jp marines with 3 pf and a powersword.

Only 10 of the marines died in their glorious charge through the xenos ranks.

Game One

 

3 x 5 Death Company

Chaplain

Cassor the Damned

 

Accounted for one squad of Dire Avengers :dry.:

 

Game Two

 

1 x 7 Death Company

1 x 8 Death Company

Astorath

Death Company Dreadnought

 

Accounted for 4 HPs worth of Wave Serpent, one squad of Striking Scorpions, one squad of Dire Avengers and one Farseer.

I played against Iron Hands last night at 1850 and brought 2 x 10 man squads of Death Company with 2 powerfists each, one with Astorath as a tag along.

 

They killed 3 Grav Centurions, 8 THSS Termies (well, the Sang guard guard helped), 8 Tac Marines and a Sergeant w/ Powerfist and 5 scouts. 

 

Astorath was...decent.  Not sure if he was that much better than a stock chaplain but they certainly made their points back!

Had a great narrative game last night and my DC performed well, as they often do.

 

I usually run my DC with a Chaplain and Dante (Rage, rerolling hits and Hit Run to repeat is brutal), they managed to charge a 20 man squad of Necron Warriors, Dante took the challenge from the overlord, and didn't kill him, but the DC wreaked faced and won the combat, and we swept the whole unit to get first blood and slay the warlord.

Today my Death Company killed;

A 10 man Dark Angel tactical marine squad,

An 8 man Dark Angel devastator squad,

And 4 out of a 5 man Dark Angel tactical terminator squad.

 

The Death Company was comprised of 15 marines, all fitted with JP and 3 marines were given PF. All of the Death Company marines fell in battle against the recently-fallen-to-chaos Dark Angels.

I had my first game in my gaming groups Six Up Save League against a Nurgle themed "summoning" army last night.

My Death Company were on an absolute rampage!

 

The loadout was 7 DC with jump packs, one fist and one powersword.

 

Turn 1: They were charged by some Beasts of Nurgle and the Death Company killed the whole lot without taking a wound.

Turn 2: Charged a squad of Nurglings and killed them all, no losses.

Turn 3: Charged a Unit of Plague Bearers that were tying up a Tac squad, Killed them all, no casulaties.

Turn 4: Charged a second unit of Plague Bearers, killed them all. A sould grinder dropped an AP3 blast on them but only killed one marine.

Turn 5: Charged his HQ (I cant remeber what its called, a banner bearer or somthing) and took one casualty.

I finally get to add to this excellent thread!

 

I took 15 DC with jump packs in my game last night, with 2 power fists and an attached chaplain. They charged a unit of nob bikers with an attached painboy and warboss.

 

With 65 + 8 (powerfist) attacks on the charge they killed 4 nobs outright and put a couple of wounds on the characters, and with the second round of combat they finished off all but the warboss, who survived to wipe them out with 2 wounds left.

 

A fitting end!

Spent yesterday playing a huge game at Warhammer World in Nottingham.

My Death Company (1 sword, 1 fist and the 5 pistol/chainswords with a Chaplain) got the charge off against a squad of 10 Khorne Bezerkers and murdered the whole squad in one go. That +1 initative is sooo good!

 

I then got charged by a soulgrinder who killed 5-6 of them. :(

Fortunatly my Powerfist stepped up and punched the Grinder right in the face! >:D

Yesterday the Death Company killed...

nothing. Absolutely nothing.

To be fair, they did soak up 90% of the Grey Knights first turn fire power. Reduced to one guy and a chaplain, the Chaplain decided that his job guiding them to a glorious death was basically done, and left to join an assault squad and later the Sanguinary Guard. The remaining mad man joined in on a combined charge on some Terminators, soaked up a combat squad of Interceptors worth of fire, then died to a daemon hammer.

Did I mention I really miss WS 5? Like, a lot.

Also tabled the Grey Knights, with Draigo, Cotez, and two Librarians, by turn 4. Baal strike force for the win.

A squad of Ork Bikers.

 

The pistol/chainsword guys killed all but the nob. Then my P-fist dude overkiled him and in return he took out the fist and another brother. I need to add a maul or sword.

 

A Chaplain with a Crozius is a massive help in these situations.

I mean, the invun save is great and the ability to let all the DC re-roll hits is awesome, but the concussive Power Maul is the icing on the cake.

Word.

 

I am however so "nervous" about using Mauls/Crozius, since my arch enemy (aka. 'friend') plays Ork Speedfreaks and it just smell a lot like list tailoring :P
