The Daemon's Claw

In part two of our battle to defend Pengetera we need to fight off a second wave of Klingons. There are now 9 Klingons with a leader 2 specialists and 6 troopers. I changed the trooper's armament to match the models so 2 have rifles and 4 have pistols. Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam! I'd much rather make someone else die for their cause...
