he said it was 1700 but it looked a bit much,i didnt care i woudl just
take his word on it!
The Eldar rushed towards the ruins.The Blood angels whirlw ind was setup
behind the rhuins and gave hell into the warriors squad,anihilating 9 in
a buring death!The land speeders darted towards the ravager taking it down
with not problems.The raiders gave fire into the speeders but only 1 fell.The
attack bikes surged towards the dark eldar warriors that were left gunning
them down with heavy bolters and bolter rounds.The Incubi and archoan slammed
intot he flank with a tactical squad slaughtered them wholesale!They were
stuck as no one was close to them and they were right on my lines.The talos's
were near my lines and the preditor annihlator and razorbakcs gave hell
into them.The speeder then flew in to finish the job,seconds before a raider
came onto its tail shooting it down!The attack bikes finshed the warriors
and too aim at the jets of a raider,knocking it down!The wytches were lose!The
tactical sqads emptied the rhino's and razorbacks and turned all weapons
towards the wytches!They were blown apart in a hail of bolter fire as the
preditor knocked down another raider!The retinue was close to close combat
whent he death company smashed into the side!They blow was deathly as 4
incubi fell to the ground and the chaplain gutted 3 more!The archon slaughtered
the death company,but not enough as the archon fled as his unit was killed
around him!He obviously didnt flee far enough as he was caught by the death
company.The homs. flew over the death company spraying their goo everywhere!The
brave warriors would not be told what to do and grabbed one homonculus
by his neck and threw him to the ground where he was sliced apart beyond
recognetion!There were but few death company members left adn a chaplain
so i pulled them back to the lines here!The tac squad's all fired towards
the remaing ravager but it was far out of reach!The attack bikes where
hit by the remainging talos and the homoculi!They were slaughtered whole
sale!The dark eldar made a last attempt at the goal!They ran their 30+
warriors at me strait on while the preditor shot down a raider it in turn
was annihilated by a dark lance!The whirl wind claimed 9 more lives as
it slammed its missles into the HUGE on foot mass of dark eldar!The razorbacks
with tac squads loaded up once more.The death company was killed off my
the homonculi,but the chaplain dragged down the last two and hacked the
engiens off them,causing them to spin out of control into the ground.The
chaplain was far from the combat.All he could do was pray he could get
there in time!The dark eldar warriors chased down the blood angel tactical
squads!The combat was ferocious!The Blood Angels managed to kill off 8
but the dark eldar warriors killed 4 int eh combat the withdrew killing
adnother 4 when they shot while being chased!The chaplain was near them
now just as the LAST raider shot hit point black with a dark lance.Annnihilating
him from the planet!The last taloes roared intot he combat and the marines
were all but decimated! the scouts finally made it formt he flank assiting
in the battle for the first time today!The veteran sergant laid hell into
everything around him but no one could stop the crazed machine!The dark
eldar warriors once agan left the combat while firing knocking down another
3 marines while the talos gutted 3 with its massive claws!The scouts slammed
into the back of the warriors killing 11 of their number and no losses
in return.The warriors were trapped and the talos was maniacly killing
stuff as the razorback shot the last raider out pf the sky!
Game Over!
Well i pulled out this one with just over 795 points left!He didnt have
that.
Overall i think the whirl wind really helped me.The tac squads did well
to hold the enemy.They scouts really paid off in this mission.The Pred
wasnt THAT hot,but still killed its points.The Speeders did excellent in
this mission and i will definately keep them.The heavy bolters and attack
bikes i could use to have mroe troops.The death company killed the homonculi
that was good,and a dark eldar squad,which was also good.They DID kill
their points but however werent as powerful as i had imagined!They Incubi
were dealt with fast but the shooty tac squad was wasted points here!The
death company saved me from myself as they roared in and killed off the
incubi in 2 turns causing the archon to flee inwhich case he was caught
and slapped around before killed off with chainswords!The massed bolter
fire WAS effective this game as i annihilated a bunch of wytches.The razorback
did well this game and is a keeper!Overall i think i did ok on an eldar
variant!I held my spot as the tactical squad's combat was AWAY from the
ruins.The death company freed alot of space up for me.Overall in a tourney
im 90% sure i woulda got 19-20 points!
Next time i face the ultra marines!Wish me luck!
