I also played Tyler today and beat him. He was using guard, I thought i was going to lose. I also lost to tyranids mainly because I thought the doom of mala'nti had eternal warrior, and my opponent thought so too. So that resulted in me wounding it with a lance, which should have killed it but it didnt...so I didnt have enough lances then to kill the trygon that was in my face.

1500 Battle report DAvsNids

Music


Hello! It's Julian again. (hai julian...) and today i have a battle report for you!!!!

Opponent: Didnt catch his name...I did shake his hand though!
Opponents faction:'NOM NOM NOM NOM NIDS

Opponents list:
Prime with a big gun
2x max warrior squads with deathspitters and one large blast gun
2x 20 man hormie squads...nom nom
10x stealers with the bigdaddy brood lord
3x hive guard
2x Zoies in a spore pod thing...he didnt have the model so we proxied some air as it

My list:
Sammael
Belial
2x cyclone, 3 TH/SS, 1x claw terminator squads
2x 6 man bikers, double melta (other squad had double plas and apothecary) Mbombs and P wep

*note* i forgot some of my models (boo hiss) so had to add some upgrades

We got pitched battle KP...ugh give me some objective missions...pl0x?

*also note im using a mac for this and havent used one before and it deleted my entire post of this before so their may be some inaccuracies (read: laziness)

His deployment

My deployment:

His First turn movement:

He fired his hive guard at my 'Naters on the hill...or near it. It did nothing (this will be a re occurrence)


My movement:

My shooting:

I went for the easy kill point and fired mostly everything at his stealers, knocking em down to 3

*Very tactical thinking part...ACTIVATED* Well my inital plan was to pop the stealers for a point easily. That didnt work...im going to get assaulted next turn oh god i hate my life.

His turn 2 movement:

Yeah im gunna get assaulted ><

His shooting:

it went kind of like: PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW...DOOSH DOOSH DOOSH DOOSH *cue explosions* and when the smoke cleared my termies were like...enjoying the rain. So i took no casualties.

His assault:

He managed to kill...ONE TERMIE. Yes one termie...its like buddha peed on my dice (no offense to anyone?...) The hills were area terrain so i got to strike first, and the genies didnt make it into assault.

My turn 2: movement Consisted of me shuffling around a bit (no pic cause it was minor shuffle duffle.

My shooting, i pew pewed at the warriors and did nothing...i did waste a stealer and put a wound on the brood lord

My assault:

I charged my terminators into the gaunts there. and my Naters punked A TON OF GAUNTS, it was ridiculous. His fearless saves hurt him aswell. he did kill one charging termie thats all.

*tactical assessment..(retarded blathering): HOLY CRAP i took that like a total beast! I should consolidate my battle line and waste the stealers, then procede to shoot the crap out of everything else while denying KP to him.

His turn three movement:

Shuffling...

His shooting: did nothing...i think caused maybe one casualty.

ONE THING THOUGH. His zoies landed by sammael and proceeded to do nothing.

His assault:

He charged the stealers in, they killed one nater then every one of them died but broodie hes down to one wound.

My movement:

No pic sorrz ><. I shuffled a bit. 

Shooting:

I went pew pew on his warriors and killed like 2 from normal saves. And the zoies pod and one zoie

My assault: (note he moved the warriors a bit closer, the pictures kind of got muddled) I charged his warriors closest to teh naters with just lightning claw man and P fister, he did nothing. I punked 3 warriors with P fist. I also killed his other zoie

He then decided to concede as MY TERMINATORS WOULDNT F'ING DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think....they took like a few rounds of shooting from all death spitter equipped warriors, 20 hormies assaulting, a stealer and brood lord. and hive guard shooting them every turn possible.

This game went extremely well for me and i hope you liked the rep, hoping to do vid reps soon.

My opponent was a great guy, except he kept screaming FAIL THE MOTHER F*CKING FNP SAVE GOD DAMMIT! every time i had to make one for my nater lol. There was some little kid their too and his dad kept like glancing nervously at our table ><. The dude was awesome though and took my rolling like a boss. I WILL LEARN YOUR NAME NEXT TIME AWESOME OPPONENT!

Thats all for today, Good games and good days to all you magical fairies of the interwebs!

Razorwing jet fighter! And mini bat rep

Music

Well I guess this is kind of a model review...
This kit went together horribly...for me at least, I didn't pay attention to the guide lines on the engine slots. So when I went to put the top down it was alllll messed up, with some modifications (snip snip snip) it went back together perfectly! I'm thinking of running 3 of them...

The only thing wrong with it is the engines are like facing in weird directions...its hard to notice though!

This one will get magnetised missile racks, ill probably use the monscythe missiles though.

The model is equipped with the splinter cannon upgrade and 2 dark lances.

I also played a 1500 game vs a chaos player on Thursday, it was sieze ground pitched battle. The terrain set up was horrible leaving me with no room to hide anything (1 LOSblocking piece on my side 4 on his) so I deployed my wych raider with a liquifier haemonculi.

Turn one he shot 6 reaper auto cannons, a battle cannon and a bolt of change...and killed the gunner on the raider!

I then preceded to flat out to about 5 inches away from two rhinos full of 1k sons.

Turn 2, he unloaded all available weapons (minus the battlecannon lol) and immobilised the raider.

My turn I got in the drug dealer (siliscus) and his cronies, 1 ravager and the razorwing and the final wych squad. They all flat out except the razorwing which dropped its four monoscythes onto a terminator squad...bringing them to 2. My wyches dis embarked and charged the rhinos popping one and doing everything but wreck to the other.

Turn 3, he shot my wyches and they fell back and did nothing to my other stuff

My turn, haemonculi jumped out of immobilised wych raider, wych raider shot up and disembarked next to some termies. The haemie liquifier shot...and got ap5 on the havocs (the ones that jumped out of the haywired rhino) they loved it and didn't lose any. I killed 2 terminators and they held.

Turn 4 he wrecked my friggen razorwing with a battle cannon... and my raider. He killed the wyches off and immobilised a warrior raider.
My wyches killed his termies

My turn: my haemie found the button and got ap2 and vaporised 3 havocs and they ran like little girls. I blew the cannon of the defiler and my wyches (who killed the naters) flew over infront of a building housing his objective. My ravagers (one of them finally came in with the other warriors) all flew over the right flank towards his objective.

Turn 5: he killed my poor haemie and did nothing else.

My turn: I jumped my wych raider onto his objective, moved onto myobjective, and piled like 500 points onto his last one. I shot everything at the defiler and did nothing.

He's all laughing and such and smack talking me, I asked him to roll to see if it ends...it ends. I promptly tell him I won and his face is like :o lol. Sorry joe if I got anything wrong it was a great game though. Thought I was gunna lose because of the terrain set up!

So far the razorwing is my hero...and its SO SMEXY. I think its got like, a dreadnought 15 terminators, and 10 tac marines and died once.

My record with my (highly proxied) not too optimised dark eldar is:
4,0,0. I think me learning how they work so fast is because of the other armies I've had. Ravenwing, tau (they move around and shoot a lot) and BA razorspam. They all have shooting and pretty fast movement.

Wow longest post so far wewt!

Expect to see some warmahordes soon.

Awesome pod cast

Hey guys just wanted to give a shout out (because I have no real content) to an awesome cast, they are also my favorite because they play techno...

Noobhammer

Introduction

Well Heeelllllllloooooo there im Tyler aka Royalfork in case you didnt pay attention to who posted this. I am a new author on this blog and I suppose ill start with a little about myself, Ive been mini-wargamming for 2 1/2 years,I currently play warhammer 40k(imperila guard and space marines) and fantasy(skaven) and im getting started in warmachine(cygnar).

Necron destroyer (total hipster)

Started off spraying it black then going over it with chaos black, (julian coached me through this entire thing <3) then based it in boaltgun metal. Badab black wash. Let that dry and then slobbered on all the detail (eyes and stuff) then touched it up so it didn't look like a dog painted it with its tounge. As you can see, he's a total hipster and I'm thinking about hetting him a big stereo for his shoulder :P (that's why the arms like that) object source lighting and base done

Excuses, excuses

Well... I'm stuck in indiana for family.. its pretty boring, I did paint a cron lord for storm that has OSL and a star system painted on his globe thing. I'm going to paint the eldar farseer I got too, but man terraria is really really addicting!!!!! I've made absolutely no progress at all on my flesh tearers and my deldar, just painting fun models! I still need to:
Get a terminator squad for the tearers
Get a terminator librarian for the tearers
Get the las/plas turrets for my tearers (might go with the twin linked las)
paint my RAS
Finish my "for fun" sanguinary guard
Finish my angels sanguine space hulk terminators
Finish painting the horrible dreadnought for my flgs
Figure out teamnames and emblems for adepticon team tourney
Make bases for all the tearers
Make up the complete fluff for our team and put it on a word doc
Draw up pictures for our team stuff

Buy ANOTHER FRAKING RAIDER for my deldar
Assemble all my raiders
Buy 2 ravagers
Buy a razorwing
Buy a venom
Convert the trueborn
Convert the drug dealer (duke)
And paint my 40+ infantry and 7 vehicles
Paint the raider bases with dead guardsmen/space wolves (its a fluff thing)
Oh and base them with the snowie urban theme
Make my "lambs to the slaughter" display board
Draw up pictures for deldar list, and come up with deldar fluff
(I'm making a packet with like: KABAL OF THE DENOUNCED) then a picture under it, then next page its my fluff, then last is my list.

Urgh...at least I enjoy doing this hobby, and wiping razor wolves with my list makes me more enthused.
