Polythemus Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 "Well met xenith. I was certain that I would be able to overcome you in close combat but it seems that your chapter maintains its storm shields with much veneration. Only an incredible amount of skill by a worthy opponent could best me. I shall return to my duties above Cypra Mundi and report on the developments of that planet." Lucifer how many 3++ saves did he make? seems like it was way above normal...

Xenith Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Well met indeed! You seemed pretty frenzied! Lucifer how many 3++ saves did he make? seems like it was way above normal... Dont forget that veteran sergeants get a +1 modifier to invulnerable saves This is Dwayne's house. EDIT: Are characters splitting their attacks between the weapons they own, like Poly's claw and fist? Or do they have to pick one per combat round, as per 40k rules? Also, is Instant Death in play?

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Actually sgts inv save is in adition to other inv saves, it doesnt improve. Characters split attacks between weapons, instant death is replaced by D2 wounds.

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 The "new challengers" are:Marshall mattias . Vet SGT GuntherCaptain Semper - SGT Khadmielaura_enchanted - *placeholder*Solly - Company Master Titusfaytality - vet sgt MelliusAbellard Tullus - Company Master CassielBrother Arkley - Knight Commander BradenEpher - Brother Librarian Simeon Company Master Cassiel - 155 pts-Artificer Armor-Plasma Pistol-Mace of RedemptionBrother Gideon had served with the Dark Angels for over two hundred of years. In his first mission after being inducted into the scout company, he watched from a distance as Company Master Nuriel was struck down by an Eldar wraith construct. Since that time, he has been witness to the death of no less than 8 Company Master's under which he has served.After the Deathwing assault on the Space Hulk 'Asheron's Scorn', and subsequent death of Master Sandalphon, he took up the name of Cassiel, in reference to his observance of some of the greatest events that have shaped the current brother's of the Dark Angels. Shortly thereafter, he was promoted to Master of the 9th company. Grizzled Sergeant Gunther is a pragmatic warrior, preferring to sight his enemy down the barrel of a gun whenever possible, preventing his opponents from getting within striking range. His decades of experience among the Ravenwing have reinforced this approach; many foes have met their end after engaging Gunther, before momentarily losing track of their wily foe in the melee. The next - and last - thing they usually see is the flare of his trusty plasma pistol...Ravenwing Vet Sgt -15+15Plasma Pistol - 15Progeny of Naaman - 30Shroud of Heroes - 50Artificer Armour -20Power Sword - 15 http://i1287.photobucket.com/albums/a628/matzeke/BE312E35-EB94-47A2-826F-6BD31479D431_zpsoatnfqgs.jpg Khadmiel is a member of the Deathwing and a fanatic hunter of the fallen. The Inner Circle is considering him for elevation to the Chaplain status as his single mindedness in hunting the Fallen is matched with his ability to inspire his fellow warriors to unparalleled feats of courage and occasionally sacrifice... In recognition of his service, the Chapter has presented him with the Mace of Intolerance (Mace of Redemption for the purposes of the Arena), a weapon that can be consecrated to become his Crozius after his scheduled ascendance. For reasons that remain undisclosed from Chapter records he has a deep enmity to Dark Angels 8th Master, Master Caleb.Veteran Sergeant: 15+15=30Storm bolter: 5Conversion field: 15Mace of Redemption: 30Progeny of Gideon: 30Total: 110 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302600-dark-angels-feast-of-blades-x-arena-of-death/page/7/#findComment-3972131 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 VS After the exciting and surprising last match, the assembled crowd were waiting for more displays of fine combat. Scout Sgt Elam in one side, betting on his superior scout armour agility, Vet Sgt Tanhausen on the other side with combat experience and a will to suceed. The two brothers saluted with a fist to the chest in the warrior's way. Tanhausen took the iniative, moving closer to get a shot with his plasma pistol. One accurate shot and it would cripple the Scout Sgt enough to take him out of combat. Squeezing the trigger like so many times before, he saw the ball of plasma speed out but to his surprise, the Scout sgt was already gone from the supposed sopt of impact. Tanhausen followed the shot with a charge of his own, theying to pin down the scout Sgt in place. Elam on the other hand had other plans. He levelled his prized Foe-smiter pattern storm bolter and shot a hail of fire to the oncoming Tanhausen. In the middle of the rush, Tanhausen did not have time to dodge all the bolts, some impacting with his armour and a fatal one right on the vulnerable neck area, causing a gashing wound almost fatal. Tanhausen had only time to grab his neck, trying to block the river of flowing blood before for enough time until an apothecary could reach him. When he tryed to look at his opponent he saw only a ghostly figure hazing away.

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 With 1 wound characters the dangers are more substantial. It was very anti.climatic but I tried to write it up the best I could so it wouldn't be such a let down. Perhaps next Arena you consider a multi wound character? or a Sgt withbionics... ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302600-dark-angels-feast-of-blades-x-arena-of-death/page/7/#findComment-3972215 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanhausen Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 To be honest, as much as I would have liked to win, the main goal was helping the Chaplain meet the 16 submission quota and participating of a DA event :) I didn't give the profile much thought...just grabbed a decently painted model and threw him to the arena to face the lions...we'll have to name him Daniel :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302600-dark-angels-feast-of-blades-x-arena-of-death/page/7/#findComment-3973015 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelVeto Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 No, this is completely unacceptable! you mean to tell us that this event you organized for those members who simply had to take a picture of a model and write up a single short blurb about it after which we just have to sit back and watch you do all the other work in your free time and for no personal compensation is delayed!? oh the humanity!

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 Sorry for the long break. RL caught up to me and after an unexpected and extenuating 11 hours shift at work I had to just chill out on the weekend. This round: VS Company Master Ramiro strode into the Arena seeing his oppoent was already there, waiting for him. A Librarian would prove a tough challenge... Askiel turned to face his opponent, Ramiro a seasnoed warrior.. A company Master at at that. Both Warriors saluted with clenched fists upon chest plate and prepared to fight. As soon as they were cleared to fight, Ramiro took the initiative and charged his opponent, axe in one hand, mace in another. Unfazed, Askiel fired a couple of bolt shots but they only robbed Ramiro's charge of momentum, giving him time to prpare a psychic power. Askiel tried to immolate Ramiro with Spontaneous Combustion but failed to achieve his goal because Ramiro was already gone from the spot. Activating his Force SWord, Askiel charged Ramiro. Faster than the librarian expected, Ramiro's mace was already swinging when Askiel tried his blow and caught a mace right on his midriff, breaking ceremite and a few ribs on the process. Stunned, Askiel had no choice but be on the defensive, parrying the lethal axe of Ramiro. Still stunned, Askiel was forced back for a few second, managing to parry and dodge both axe and mace, unable to unleash an attack of his own. Ramiro sought to win the upper hand and doubled his efforts, but Askiel recovered and was managing to both defend and attacking, pausing only briefly from time to time to activate the force sword. Ramiro was managing to get some blows in as well as Askiel but both warriors were protected by arcane energy fields and not easy to disrupt. In Ramiro's case he had the advantage of aritificier armour so any blow the Iron Halo didn't stop, the armour would. That was until for a fraction of a second, Ramiro saw the figure of Askiel blurr and felt a sharp pain between his ribs, looking down and seeing the Librarian's sword embed in his armour. Ramiro battered his opponent away with a kick and battered his oponent again and again with his mace, but no signs of the force field giving in... When the field finally disappeared it was like the Librarian's cloth robes absorbed the blow magically. Suffer not the witch to live crossed Ramiro's mind while his axe made an arc and when it would seem the librarian would be able to parry the blow, the axe diverted it's predicted rtrajectory and with great finesse embed itself on other side of the Librarian's wounded torso, finishing the fight. "You win, brother" said Askiel coughing blood. "You have an unusual resistance to psykers....." "Thank you brother, you fought well but tricks can't surpass mastery over weapons", Ramiro replied...

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 VS This time two sucessor Chapters would go in a fight. On one side a Veteran Sgt, on the other a seasoned Commander. As seen previously, a vet sgt soemtimes is very resourcefull, so this match was going to be a good one. Guntham steals the Iniative, gets close and fires his plasma pistol, A burning pauldron showing scarred flesh beneath as a result. Despite the wound, Vengen greeted his teeth and advanced, firing his Foe-smiter storm bolter. A hail of fire fell into Guntham but his armour held fast. Vengen dropped his storm bolter, drew his sword and charged Guntham. He was saluted by a plasma shot but this time he was ready and dodged it expertly. His sword flew in an arc and Guntham was expecting to parry it, but a concealed pair of lasers on Vengen's gauntlet blinded Guntham momentarily and he missed his parry. A chunk of armour and shoulder fell to the Arena's floor ending the short fight. Still dazzled by the swift events Guntham grunted a salutation to which Vengen replied: "Till we meet again, brother, next time on the same side taking death to our foes" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302600-dark-angels-feast-of-blades-x-arena-of-death/page/7/#findComment-3979285 Share on other sites More sharing options...
