Battle Report Blood Angels VS. Black Legion Choas This is a Cleanse Mission the has 5 turns in it...I played against one of my friends and veteran gamers of our club...today i fought his black legion army ( i had a list with me in my pocket i was thinkin of and visted the club and just happened to tool it at the last second) so i thought what the hell why not...

ON TO THE LISTS.....

Troops: tactical squad with missle launcher % plasma gun ( 8 men) vet serg

Fast attack: 2 land speeders with multi meltas

Heavy Support: Dev's with 2 plasma cannons 1 missle launcher and 1 lascannon

THE BADIES' LIST:

HQ: Lord with Mark of chaos undivided with Twin Lightning claws & jump pack & melta bombs( yippe he was alot of fun)

Elite:Possessed marines ( which happened to roll invulnerable and strength one)

Troops: something like 2 tac squads in rhino's with ccw and bps and 1 6 man with auto cannon and sumthin else...

Fast Attack: Raptors with exalted champ with power sword/plasma pistol melta bombs

Heavy Support: Land Raider


Anyways i dont remeber everything he had but i remeber most of it...... here is how it went...


Choas Turn 1-The evil chaos lord moved the rhinos behind some cover and jetted his 'pakcers strait into some trees(guess he had a few too many buds :) ) and 1 fell as it was grousomely impaled on the trunk of a tree after his rotting jet pack failed him... the landraider moved up with the possessed inside and took aim at a rhino which managed only a glancing hit because of hull down which cause it to not move next turn...


BA turn 1-The chaplain raced his Death company to the nearest batch of trees from the one they were in and move the veterans up into trees and moved the tactical squads forward as well.The land speeders soared ahead and both managed to immoblise it and stun the crew ( yey! ) snesing next turn they would reach the enemy the chaplain readied himself for combat....


Chaos turn 2- the raptors swooped down onto the tress and waited while the other rhino's screamed past...the fools were falling right into a trap the lord had noticed...the possessed departed from the ladnraider and set about on foot for their targets and the auto cannon was in range shaking the land speedwhile botler fire brought the other one crashing into the ground...

BA turn 2- the raging rhinos were emaciated in flames as the previously silent dev's spoke out with hatred and spite..( the didnt rage i just didnt use them because i was planning to have him forget them).. the veterans charged the now dismounted chaos space marines slaughtering them all but 2..while the assualt squad and death company took care of the other imobilized squad killing them all and advancing into the trees....


Chaos Turn 3- frustrated at his loss the lord charged with his raports only to find they were just short of charging distance.The remaining tactical squad downed the last speeder and advanced foward while the now active laindraider destroyed one of the rhinos of the veterans...the possessed were now 1 turn from the BA lines and they were foaming at the mouth just thinking about it...

BA turn 3-instead of wiping them raptors out in HtH and risk losing some of our his own men the humble chaplain gave the order to the dev's to make the execution....all 9 raports inculding their champion was eradicated, but suprisingly the chaos lord survived...bloody but not dead( one wound left)...the dismounted tactical squads trook aim at the chaos space marines tac squad and blew them all apart with massed bolter fire along with melta plasma laser and missle shot(t he over kill was 6 wounds). while the veterans finished thier buisness with the assualt chaos squad..


Chaos turn 4-the lord ran back to his possessed and then moved within charging range of the veterans who calmly but readily awaited the ineviable charge.The laind raider downed 3 death company members as the possessed led byt he lord chagred head long into the veterans killing 6 and taking only 1 kill in return.while the lord gutted 3 for himself.....

BA turn 4- the dev's and tac squad fired holy hell at the laind raider destroying it with flying colors while the death company and assualt squad charged over to help the veterans..

Chaos turn 5- the lord and possessed finished off the last of the veterans and ranstrait into the tactical marines slaughtering 8 and taking no kills in return ( @#%$ that invulnerable save!)...

BA turn 5- the final turn had come...it was now or never.Sensing victory the chaplain charged intot he melee with the death company and assualt squad killing 4 more possessed while the chaplain offered a sacred challnge to the Dark lord . the challenge of a duel...the titans clashed parrying blow after blow...final after suffering a wound himself the chaplain downed the foul chaos obimnation...3 DC and the rest of the assualt marines were killed as the assualt squad finished off the last of the possessed....



OUT COME.....

BLOOD ANGELS VICTORY.


Though at some points rather lop sided im just glad those raports were out of range and that the laindraider was immboilized the first turn.Also my coordinated assualt worked.I hate possessed in HtH the are some mean guys to face when they get close.Even the DC doesnt match thier ferocity in combat.My land Speeders work well( first time i ever fielded 2 but i only really eneded one) my devs sure took care of what ever came thier way ( that missle/lascannon/plasma cannon/plasma cannon combo is a real game winner) and i got very lucky witht he dice early on....



all in all a very fun game for me and my competitor.....hope you enjoyed it..


P.S. i think i won buy like 1,600 VP cause it was around a 1,400 point army he had and i had 2 table quarters so thats 200 more..anyways im not sure...
