Battle Report - Marvel Crisis Protocol

 Hello Folks,

Managed to get a game in with Dunxan yesterday, doing some more Marvel stuff. The models are grear fun to paint so it's easy to add a few guys to keep things fresh.

I painted Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. Added them to my brotherhood of mutants, Duncan had a random assortment of heroes led by black widow, with winter soldier, an arrow guy, a purple lady and vision.

Mission wise we had rules tokens that are traps you can take over and then they guve you points, and res ones you can collect.

Here's the set up, mystique and juggernaughr left, scarlet witch center, quicksilver and toad right. My starting plan is to use my 2 fast guys to get as many points as early as possible.

Here we are end if turn 1. I'm a bit ahead on points so ots working. New idea becomes drive juggernaught into the enemies face and punch some really hard, hopefully they will feel they have to fight. Everyone else get points. So juggernaught charges in gets lucky and KOs vision.

End of turn 2. This plan worked pretty well, winter soldier is doing some good damage on the flanks thou. Duncan has some really bad rolls and first quite down the juggernaught.

End of turn 3, Duncan gets really unlucky with the arrow guy and failed to flip 1 of my blues last turn, but juggernaught gets crazy lucky and flips a very contested 1 he doesn't deserve. Winter soldier and the purple lady also KO scarlet witch making me drop a red token.  But it's not quite enough to stop me from winning.

At the end we realize Duncan was using points values as hp, so vision probably should have stayed up. This would change everything of course, but eh mistakes haolen still a fun game!

Thanks;

Mike

Battle Report - 3rd Ed 40k

 Hello Folks,

First gaming day of the year! Back for some classic 40k, this time we are doing 1000 point lists to practice for an upcoming  tournament.

Rescue:

This mission starts you with only troops, so I get a bunch of guardians. The 4 papers have numbers, one of them is the real 1.

Turn 1 I move up and immedatly find it.

Marines start advancing!

Swooping hawks drop in from reserve grenadeing some marines. Also war walkers hiding behind the building.

Marines get some assault guys. Next turn I get Fuegan who walks in and melts 2 of em.

Marines assault the Hawks, but I get lucky on the exarchs power sword and kill their punchy fist. Also a rhino with command squad arrives.

War walkers promptly kill that, as the avatar and his entourage walk over.

Marines bring in a vindicator!

But the Avatar kills the command squad and that about that. A win for the Eldar.

Game 2: Nightfight

Now we have a night fight, basically capture table quarters, plus night fighting rules. Marines deploy first a drop a vindicator dictator front and center. My plan is for the scorpions to go 1 way, storm guardians the other, avatar comes down the middle.

Sadly for the vindicator Eldar go first again. Fuegan sneaks fwd in his lil woods and destroys the tanks cannon, the walkers then finish it.

Command rhino swings left as the assault Marines head fir storm guardians.

War walkers delete the rhino, pinning the command squad.

Assault Marines and the Chaplin start messing up the storm guardians.

Upside down picture, anyway main point if Fuegan vs Chaplain.

Avatar killing the commanders again.

Fuegan rolls poorly and the chaplain gets him. 

Missing the last couple of pictures, but hawks come in and get killed by the chaplain. But reapers and walkers kill a marine squad the avatar mostly gets another but a plasma guy eventually kills him.

Quarters wise the Eldar are ahead claiming g another victory.

Thanks;

Mike

Not exactly an army but a good start a least? Couple more units and some cav. Fun projects to do during the break anyways.

Thanks;
