Xin Ceithan Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Piping in between busy stuff to let you know that GW just previewed a decent model to make a proper mini for Sabaan ;) Motivational protocol are cycling up!

Commissar Molotov Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 I saw it and thought of Sabaan too! I know Nineswords said he would have Greysight charge to try to drag Varvost out. Players will have to let me know who wishes to charge so I can accommodate!

A.T. Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) I've got Atratus's rolls ready, will post up as soon as Tyber has his action to kick off the free charges/attacks. edit - and the post is up. 12 separate rolls, potentially 5 attacks, and i'm fairly sure i've killed at least one of them...

Noctus Cornix Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) Well, it took me about two hours to write the post (and you might see some more edits coming in) so I've missed the psychology. Gargoyles F should flee, you're right (and I will edit accordingly.) That's why I haven't written any narrative - which I will edit in. I will consult with Nineswords in the morning to get Greysight's actions and finish the round. Next turn the Kill-Team needs to make some decisions to try to close down the Genestealers and save Varvost... Sorry, I realize now that the way I said it was kind of needlessly snarky. I apologize for that. That wasn't my intent. Honestly, I actually forgot I had even asked about the synapse stuff and was thinking that the ship would function as one single synapse. I was silently lamenting how we were going to have to kill every single one of these bugs and worried about how beaten up we were going to get...

They are a blasphemy to the Emperor! What is the fate of the Xeno? To be purged! Only Varvost is taking a pasting - he's a big boy, he can take it! Keep swinging and mind-burninating! MR.

Commissar Molotov Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 Updated with map - just need to know who else will take advantage of the furious assault before I start Atratus's actions.

Commissar Molotov Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 Edit: It seems in overlooking the psychology I have neglected that both groups of Gargoyles would provoke attacks of opportunity when fleeing...

Mazer Rackham Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 You're doing beyond yeoman service with all this Mol, don't fret about the little stuff, no one can remember everything! I'll ease up on Bolter Assault this turn though. ;) MR. apologist, Commissar Molotov and Steel Company 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/343329-dw-blackthorn-and-swordhand-ooc-thread/page/204/#findComment-5555556 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar Molotov Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) I anticipate that Solastion will want to charge, and Montesa may perhaps wish to do so as well. It would be possible for Ghent to charge down one of the Gargoyle groups as well before his turn. EDIT: Of course, Montesa may wish to not charge so that he can cast Avenger again. The advantage of getting into combat is to do an All Out Attack twice as part of Solastion's Squad Mode ability.

Commissar Molotov Posted July 6, 2020 Author Share Posted July 6, 2020 Awesome - and the stats in your post were correct! So Mazer, Morovir, Noctus and Slips to go - feel free to post in any order and I will resolve. Genestealers 1 and 2 have been killed by Atratus; Genestealer 3 is in combat with Solastion, with 7 wounds remaining; Genestealer 5 has used its dodge; Genestealer 6 still has its dodge available.

Commissar Molotov Posted July 6, 2020 Author Share Posted July 6, 2020 I managed to miss your post due to our respective posting times. Akkad kills Genestealer 6 very dead. So just Genestealers 3 and 5 alive. The two Gargoyle Hordes are much diminished. You then have the Hormagaunts and Termagants behind you...

A.T. Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) Swift attack and two weapon fighting for Atratus, hence the -10 to hit and the second chainsword he requisitioned - same outcome though. Good to remove a few of the genestealers before they try to remove a few of the Astartes :p Edited July 6, 2020 by A.T.

Noctus Cornix Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 But what about our brothers Greysight and Varvost? We can't just leave them.

Commissar Molotov Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 Certainly Varvost will do 2 All Out Attacks (both with Whirlwind of Death) and Greysight can help out (either with combat or shooting.) Vorr could help out with a frag missile to try to thin the Termagants also. Obviously the choice is yours, but it seems Montesa would be best either charging one of the Genestealers (perhaps the one Solastion is engaged with to free him up for a charge) or flaming one of the hordes to death.

Mazer Rackham Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Genestealer 5 needs culling. Dodge burned, it's asking for the chop. On the Greysight rescue front, Reyner and I can clip some Magnitude off with support fire at range. Forward lads - to victory! The claw is on the other hoof for these xenos! MR.

Steel Company Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I'm in agreement with MR, the genestealers are the greater threat. That's due to the fact they can bypass our armour with a simple two degrees of success on their melee attack roll.
