Space Marine

a warboss as my free one
also a big mek as a secondary hq

Big mek taking anything note worthy?

he only got 2 upgrades
1) 4+ armour
2) the waagh ghazghkull relic Kff which bestows a 4++ to all models within 6" rather than a 5++. they can only use this save against shooting attacks

Ooc: so, everything in your army will have a 4+ save.

all infantry in my army already does have a 4+ armour save
the main reason i took that is because if he's in a transport, he gives that invun to the transport
and i have a battlewagon

Thought as much.

Well, I think it's fair to say that my team is toast.

to be fair, if it's an objectives game, my army is not designed for point holding

They all are heavily armoured.
How aren't they?

because
i have a total of one infantry squad who's not outfitted to get in their transport and head for the enemy at full speed

Ooc: you only have 1 troop choice?

no
i have 2
ard boy squads
in trucks
outfitted for melee

the squad that's staying back is 10 flashgitz

And they can't hold objectives?

they can
but only 1

Why only 1?

cause it's only 1 squad of flashgitz.....
they're my only backline force. if i got to hold objectives, they're the only ones good at it
everything else is designed to be up in my opponent's face as soon as possible (which btw trukks pull of MASTERFULLY)

Good thing my team gets first turn.

aye it is

Still, gonna get wrecked.

we'll see :P
you do gots grey knights
also wat army you doin?

Blood angels.

OH GOD DEATH COMPANY

Yeah.


And lemartes.

And the deathdread.

deathdread? oh death company dred
well
my kans/deff dredd have a target

Death company dreadnought.

And you sure your the one targeting?

we will see my friend
if all else fails, my new converted blitza bomma will do the trick
btw did i ever show you it?

No.

well i've only got a WIP pic so far
i'll upload one of its finished form asap
here's the WIP one

Cool.

glad u like it
still got the troop compartment from the Valkyrie spare
gonnaa use it for a looted tank of some kind

Oh yeah?

yeah
no idea what to give it yet though
i mean looted tanks got a serious downgrade with the update
and not even because their rules are white dwarf exclusive

Heh

They can't be that bad.

well they are as fragile as ever
as easy to kill as a rhino
but
they had one MASSIVE downgrade
no longer do they get a boomgun
they get a kilkannon instead
IE the same, but with the range decreased by about 12" and the strength decreased by 1

In my opinion, ork vehicles should be flimsy but cheap.

aye they are
put it this way
outside of forgeworld rules, only one vehicle has armour higher than eleven, not including walkers
and that's a battlewagon (front armour 14)

however with forgeworld, they get a few vehicles with armour 12

Yeah.

At least we have 1 advantage.

what's that?

That would be telling.

oh joy
*prepares zee bomma*

Ooc: yeah, nothing I do can beat that cheese.

well
testing this army out against a 1700 point guard army (since with my free hq included my army reaches about 1700 points) and...i feel sorry for the guard

with the orks rampaging over their front lines, a special weapon squad with grenade launchers (who were given the order that gives them tank hunter) manage to take 2 hull points off of a deff dredd who just ripped apart a leman russ....the dredd, enraged, charges over and assaults the building. the building blows up. not only does this kill almost everyone inside, including all but 1 of the grenade launcher guardsmen....but it removes the only cover the company command squad, who are holding the objective, had to keep the battlewagon's kilkannon from obliterating them

We're you playing with yourself?

no
got my IG buddy helping me test it out
and honestly it's going well for my guys...ish
mission's the emperor's will IE one objective in each deployment zone
terrain setup was orks on the edge of a ruined city, guard getting a proper defense line, and a shittonne of craters n such inbetween
problem is, while i've caused HEAVY losses to the IG, all my boyz are dead. however my nobs are untouched, mainly due to my warboss getting the waagh ghaz warlord trait that gives him and his squad outflank

ok the IG are being clever here
moved their one remaining vehicle, the chimera, in to provide cover from the kilkannon and block line of site and consolidated their remaining infantry around the objective, and are now just holding the line. master of ordanance killed the deff dredd
however, yarrick has been killed. one on one with the warboss. he's got back up, but then got burned down by overwatch from the warboss. dunno if he's gonna get up again
killa kans are currently slaughtering the few guardsmen who couldn't get away from them and reach the objective in time

DEAD!

Yeah...

Why are you not RPing

WHY

ARE
YOU
NOT
RPING

FOOOLLLSSS

however the Ig forgot one thing
the bomma
it has one bomb left
it flies in from the board edge, having flown off the turn before and drops its bomb
luckily for the guard, while it seriously dents their remaining forces, they still have more than enough left

Ooc: from now on, it's the cheeser

ok...that was pretty cool
the Ig forces, after the bomb and a punishing volly from the grotzookas of the 2 remaining killa kans consist of a chimera, 1 veteran with a plasma gun, 1 platoon commander with power sword and plasma pistol, and 2 ratlings

the chimera dashes forward, ramming one of the 2 killa kans, taking a hull point off. the multi-laser swings around and deals with the other hull point, wrecking the kan

then the veteran and platoon commander open fire with their plasma weapons, and also through good rolls, manage to blow up the other kan

Cool
