Kill Team learning game - battle of the 200ad franchises

-

Chris O'Neil organised an introduction to Kill Team event. There was one day for introductory games and a second day for more competitive games.

I went down to introduce some new players to Kill team and hopefully give them a good time.

The first game was introducing Finubar to Kill Team, he used my Arbites team made up of Judge Dredd models and I used my Scout team made from Rogue Trooper models.





Here are a bunch of guys hiding behind a ruin.

More Souther troopers led by a GI.

Rogue hopped up on the ladder and hosed down the area shooting up some of the Judges hiding behind light cover. Wallace the wobot has covered the central objective making it harder for me to score. Its distracting when a wobot is trying to sell you a slice on Wenslydale cheese.
I built up a nice little firebase on the roof of this building. Some anti sniper fire was exchanged with the Justice Department long gunner. The Scout hunter is ready with 3 APL to swing down off the roof and stab someone.

The scout trooper managed to sneak forward and landed a Stun grenade on the Police Dog. The Missile launcher gunner moved forwards to cover the centre. 
The Castigator charged the Scout trooper and they managed to damage each other. A Subjugator moved up near the scout ready to bring down the force of the Law.

Rogue took some return fire, laid down some more suppressing fire and then dropped back down the ladder. The missile launcher gunner finished off a subjugator with his pistol. The heavy bolter gunner got taken down by the sniper. The Hunter fast roped down, stabbed one of the judges and then shot the subjugator. not bad for an unmodified trooper.
The scout trooper managed to finish off the castigator. I needed to score a critical hit and then have the castigator fail his damaged reduction check. Any other result and the scout would be pasted in one hit. Fortunately this paid off and the Judge slumped to the ground.
The robo dog was taken down and the two scout troopers finished off the judges with supporting fire from the Sniper.
The tracker secured the home objective and the Judges ran out of models. The Judge sniper had a good game taking out three scouts.

It was fun to try out a new team in the new edition.

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.

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

 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 turn.
