Kill Team - Blooded into the Dark

-

After using the Legionaries team in the April event, I wanted to try out a more numerous team so I could experience what it was like to run a more numerous and more fragile team.

In the first mission I was attacking a Phobos team. The marines ended up doing a passable final stand in a room on the edge of the board. 

One of the Marines moved to engage my Sniper, I then increased his APL with the Comms man and used the third action to shoot the Marine


The Second marine raced in and shot my leader in the back. I then moved my sniper onto the objective on the left because that was certain rather than try and take the objective back from a marine. 

There were some other great moments in the game, some very clever smoke obscuring some of the marines, The sacrificial trooper that failed to die to the EMP mine explosion. This denied me a blooded token so the Gods were not interested until turn 3.

With Kill team being such a quick game I got in a second game in the afternoon. This time some Navy Armsmen were trying to stop me.
I have taken control of Objective 3 and there is a gunfight going down the hall past objective 2. There has also been some close range shooting and firefights down the corridor to the right.
The Ogryn is about to take the bait and charge Armsman Tethered Goat. (I've only got 4 more weeks of service before I can retire and go home and marry my childhood sweatheart). The Armsman was dispatched under the mountain of rotting flesh. The Ogryn then absorbed shooting from several models before falling.
The Marksman again had a good game. He took out several models but could not shake off the annoying sensor bot that was trying to run over his foot.

Only a few photos, I forgot my Camera and these are from my phone.

Stargrave 40k - "we just got our asses kicked man"

-

Alan and I went up to the Bring and Buy day at the Kapiti Club in Paraparaumu. We took our Stargrave game. In this case we had followed our leads to an abandoned factory. However when we got there we realised that the factory was far less abandoned than we had hoped. As we approached we could hear the sounds of chanting and the smell of old blood. It certainly didn't sound like Slaaneshi cultists. Here is an overview of the factory mounds of overgrown rubble and broken machinery. At locations around the factory were groups of red robed figures crouched over bits of equipment. They appeared to be trying to unlock the access to an underground silo. Here is the new Inquisition strike team. We have two new commandos and a doctor along with a former heretic that had been reprogrammed into an assault gladiator. The cultists if thats what they are react with the skill and precision normally reserved for military units. Inquisitor Rathbourne smote a cultist with a Grenade launcher with a b...

Kill Team - Genestealers above ground.

Image
I got in against Ben and his Star Striders, The Genestealers had made a lair in some old ruins. The Starstrider crew needed to cross this dangerous area so they could recover a valuable relic. Here are the Genestealers lying in wait for any that enter their territory. I placed once stealer in the open because I knew I could Salk it into cover and threaten the mid board. The Star Strider's motion trackers started going off, but they could not lock down the locations of the Genestealers while they were hiding in the ruins. The Genestealers are scuttling forwards. The Genestealers have flanked around their short side and seized control of the objective point between the Star Striders and their relic One the other side the board the Star Striders are advancing. One of the armsmen got close enough to get an accurate fix on one of the genestealers. This enabled their ship to get the coordinates and a beam strike lanced down out of the heavens. However the lightning reflexes of the Genest...

7TV Vlads Army - the climax - Battle at the Church

-
Image
 The Home Guard have raced back to their headquarters at the Church. (its the only place with a working phone). They have found the vicar and verger inside and have amassed a stock of supplies with which to make maguffins and other unique weapons of war. Just then a dark smokey cloud spreads over the graveyard and long dead hands start erupting from the ground. The Vampires have arrived, and this time they are led in person by Major Shreck. Can the Home Guard drive off the fiends of the night? Here is the church and its surrounding graveyard. (Seriously, who does that?) To the right is the church hall and at the bottom a couple of bomb-damaged houses. There is a war on. Here are the brave defenders taking their positions. The vicar briefly protested as his windows are broken to make firing ports. Alan won initiative for the first time in the campaign. Major Shrek raised the Iron Cross and the horde shambled forwards. Alan also got the effect that meant he could only move once per t...
