Battle Report - Warhammer 40k 3rd ed

 Hello All,

Got the chance yesterday for a game of 40k 3rd edition. A guy a wirk gave me his old 2nd ed Chaos stuff which I have been working away on. Do decided to use that plus a few demonscto make up the points.

Facing the despised Dark Eldar. Due to the we choose the slave raid mission from the battle book. Basically win combats and a few other things to get slave points. But the Dark Archon gets 5x points. 😬

This mission let's you deploy right up to the centerline, but you can't hide in the back! Dark eldar go first unless they roll a 1 and loose the initiative.



I put my terminators in the woods right on the face of the archon and imcubi. My thought is maybe go first and smash them, if not a least this juicy target keeps them way over there! The marines can beat up the chaff.


No trouble smashing them, and shooting up my guys a bit.


Witches assault the prince of demons, while the archon finishes the last terminator. That is allot of slave points for him.


Khorne enthusiasts help out a beat up the witches.


The witches kill my demon, but their leader did to many drugs and died! Remember kids don't do 3 drugs at once. I have been only mostly winning combats so the score is getting close.


Juggernaut arrive and start stomping all of the eldar warriors. Archon and his lads mount up and head over.

Killing time, juggernaughts turn out tough to crack and we mostly draw. The shoots warriors form a nice line, only to get flamered.

Sadly having to much fun now so forgot to take pictures.

When we remembered we rolled for random game length like turn 6 and it ended. I was up 1 point on slaves, but we each lost a hero worth d6. Demon was worth 5, which lady 4, so a hard tie!

Hah excellent game. Really enjoying playing 3rd ed! 

Thanks;

Mike
