Bunker Games

Salubri's Deathwing and Ravenwing vs Deadeye's Imperial Guard
2000 pts.
Salubri wins 15 kp vs 2kp

After almost two years the Dark Angels leave the box for a match with the Imperial Guard. All I can say is I rolled the right numbers and Deadeye didn't.

On the other hand it's nice to play with an army that doesn't drop like flies to las guns. lol

George's first ever 40k game and he pulls out a fully painted force of Imperial Fists that puts a lot of players (including yours truly) to shame! Game was close in its early turns, with George drawing first blood with a precise hit from his Dreadnought on one of the Black Legion's CSM squad on Rhino. But the latter turns became difficult for the Imperium where a combination of terrain and numbers overwhelmed the sons of the False Emperor. Hopefully the game proved a learning experience in the right direction for George.

Mission: Annihilation

Game 8: 2000pts- Kuneho(Hive Fleet Conqueror) vs Ryan(Sword of Light)

Battle Bunker Reports: February 17, 2009

Game 1: 1000pts- Hive Fleet Conqueror (kuneho) vs Chaos khorne Demons (kim)
Mission: Annihilation
Deployment: Pitch battle
Result: Kuneho Won. (played on gargantua)

Summary:
i had the first turn but done nothing on my first player turn. The demons appeared to the hive's right flank; bloodthirster, 12 bloodletters, and his blood crushers. First and second turn was uneventful, repositioning of troops, all movement. on the second turn, a fiend and a 2nd bloodletter squad were summoned to the field

on my third turn, my hive tyrant and 3 guard assaulted his blood thirster; 1 genestealer brood on his 1 bloodletter squad; ripper swarms on the other bloodletter squad. I won all combat except for the ripper swarms who lost 6 bases but held the bloodletters to keep them busy; the blood thirster was down to 2 wounds due to implant attack but made 1 wound to the guard; the genestealers caused 14 wounds which kim all failed to save (tough luck for me) and consolidated to difficult terrain.

Kim made his counter attack on his turn; bloodcrushers on the tyrant and guard, fiend on genestealers. my tyrant attacked his blood crushers while the 3 guards attacked the thirster. the guard causes 1 wound and the thirster failed his save reducing him to 1 wound left. the hive tyrant causes 2 wounds and kim failed his saves again, causing 4 wounds due to implant attack, but his crushers made 3 wounds enough to kill my 2 guards before it was sent back to the warp. winning the combat, kim made no retreat rolls which he passed. meanwhile, the genestealers repelled the fiend and consolidated forward. Kim tapped out at the end of his assault phase.

Game 2: 2000pts- Luna Wolves (jessie) vs Imperial Guard (mike)
Mission: seize ground (5 counters)
Deployment: spearhead
Result: jessie won (3-1)

Summary:
first few turns, mike was on the advantage, killing marines from apart. Jessie kept his land raider from the LR vanquisher's sights, moving from ruins to ruins. i cant recall if mike could have won or drawn the game if it ended the fifth turn, but unluckily it went through the 6th that causes mike to lose.

HGR Journal Entry No. 086 - Balian Returns!!!

Me and BattleCaptain went to Galle for an early valentines date, hehehehe, arriving at 11am, set-up the tables and started an early battle....

Game 1: 2000pts- Luna Wolves (BattleCaptain) vs Hive Fleet Conqueror (Kuneho) - Planet 6
Mission: Seize Ground(5 counters)
Deployment: Pitch Battle
Result: Draw (2 counters each)

Summary:
We played for full 7, hard fought turns, with Luna Wolves taking the first turn. He took down 4 carnifexes at the end of the 3rd turn, but the hive fleet continues to advance. A Hive tyrant took down Luna wolves' terminator squad but Hestan and his 6 assault termies took down one of the Tyrant squad.

The Conqueror counter charged with the 2nt tyrant squad and a full genestealer brood, with total of 9 rending wounds and 9 regular wounds, reducing his Assault termies to 1 plus Hestan, who fell back after losing the combat and chased by the ripper swarms and never regrouped. the game ends with with both 2 counters each.


Game 2: 2000pts- Chaos Daemons (Mickie) vs Ultramarines (Deadeye)
Mission: Annihilation
Deployment: Pitch Battle
Result: Mickie Wins! (9-6)

Summary:
As always, the daemons kept pressing the marines in assault, as turn by turn, daemons kept on arriving. The ultramarines stood their ground firing at every daemons that arrived and assauled it for the finish... Marnius Calgar led the marines into battle, but he fell in the hands of the Bloodthirster when he tried to aid one of the marines squad held in close combat.

The daemons continued its rampage, took down the Ultramarines 1 by 1...


Game 3: 1500pts- Dark Angels (Balian) vs Or'es Tash'n (Martie)
Mission: Capture and Control
Deployment: Dawn of War
Result: Balian Victorious! (2-0)

Summary:
The Tau took the first turn deploying only his Crisis team HQ, hidden at the back of one of the ruins, doing much damage as it can on the rushing assault squad. The Or'es Tash'n kroots outflanked the devastator squad and held it off until reinforcments arrived. But the tau resererves came in one by one as the Dark angels killed everything that arrives. Balian is back...

Game 4: 2000pts- Chaos Daemons (Mickie) vs Hive Fleet Conqueror (Kuneho) - Planet 6
Mission: Capture and Control
Deployment: Pitch Battle
Result: Kuneho Wins! (1-0)

Summary:
The daemons went for the first turn, spawning daemons after daemons, trying to devour the Devourer. The Favored Ones entered the field, summoned near the Hive's outpost. Pressed by the daemons attack, the Hive tactically fell back, using its firepower advantage before they make the counter assault. One of the Tyrant squad killed, with implanted attacks, the raging blood thirster before it went down, while the other tyrant squad took down a demon prince but was slained by the rampage of the blood crushers. Tit for tat battle went on. When the summoning stops, the tyranids went for the kill. The genestealers killed a blood crusher squad and moved on to its assault to take the objective secured by the horror squad.

The game ends in the 5th turn....

Game 5: 2000pts- Luna Wolves (BattleCaptain) vs Chaos demons (Mickie)
Mission: Seize Ground(5 counters)
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: BattleCaptain Wins!(Tap out)

Summary:
The Luna Wolves was prepared for a daemon assault as daemonhunters joined them to battle. The Luna Wolves was thirsty for revenge after one of their company fell from last weeks assault. The Luna Wolves was kept in sanctuary and was remained untouched, not even a foul breath of the demons stained the Luna Wolves' battle armor. One by one, the daemons fell, returned back into the warp....

Game 6: 2000pts- Dark Angels (Balian) vs Space Wolves (Henri)
Mission: Capture and Control
Deployment: Pitch Battle
Result: Draw (1-1)

Summary:
Battle tilted from one side to the other.... Henri could have won had the game ended on after the 5th turn, Balian could have won if the game ended after the 6th... fittingly the game ended in a draw after the 7th and final turn.

Game 1: 1500pts- Hive fleet conqueror(kuneho) vs Imperial Guard(freddie yu); planet 6
Mission: seize ground (3 counters)
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: kuneho won (2-1)

Swooping down from the sky, a winged tyrant, flying down towards the guardsmen outpost. A tyrant with 3 guards, 2 broods of genestealers, 2 gunfex, and a heavy gunfex lurked out from the forest, rushing towards their prey. Defending for their lives, the imperial guardsmen shot their weapons towards rushing herd, wounding the tyrant and killing some genestealers. The basilisk fired its cannons and killed a tyrant guard in return.

But the Hive is fast, the winged tyrant caught 2 roughriders and was held in combat. The 2 gunfex fired their bio weapons on the guardsmen, killing as many as they can before they feed on them. The junior officer and his squad together with the commissar prepared for close combat to aid the rough riders. The conscript squad was also commanded to aid the surviving rough riders, but the tyrant was so tough, made the rough riders scream in fear and fell back.

2 Sentinel and 2 squads of heavy flamers tried to outflank the swarming Hive, aiding thier falling guardsmen. But it wasnt enough, as another swarm of genestealers moved from behind, killing whatever they touched. The hive fleet conqueror proved its name again, as they fed the lifeless bodies of the Imperial guard.

Mission: seize ground (4 counters)
Deployment: Spearhead

Invasion

February 1, 2009 – Sunday

Fought on Forge World Aegis 7
2k Game - Ian (Hive fleet Conqueror) vs. Mike (Ultramarines)
Annihilation – Dawn of War
Ian Wins with 9kp against Mike’s 8kp – Close but no dice!

M41.78.01.31 – Preparations
After a near defeat at the hands of Demons, the Patrol was not finished, Librarian Sevein felt a disturbance, and He knew the hive fleet was coming, it was an invasion! He quickly called for reinforcements from Battle Barge Achromatous; Master of the Forge Thestor heeded the call! And 2 Thunderhawks came plunging from the skies to deliver its cargo of 3 Dreadnoughts, 3 Tactical Squads, a Terminator Squad, and Terminator Assault Squad in a Landraider.

M41.78.02.02 – Invasion Begins
Preparations were made hastily; as the hive approached the sky became black with their massive numbers, large monstrous creatures, Librarian Sevein, called them out as they arrived on surface. 5 Carnifex, 2 Hive Tyrants with guards, a brood of Hormogaunts and 2 broods of Genestealers, or was it 3?! It would take the hive another day to reach our location, but we were meeting them head on!

M41.78.02.03
As the dawn came, we bolstered our defenses, said our prayers, and readied ourselves for the trials to come. But within the next minutes, the hive has just taken the initiative! The beast thundered across the field, but with calm and resilience, we focused our efforts on ridding this planet of its foul presence, Epistolary Sevein maneuvered his squad to the right while every battle brother, with the aid of the Venerated Dreadnoughts singled out the larger beast! One by one they fell, plunging to the ground like heavy rocks, with triumphant jubilation for each dead monster; a battle brother would shout his last battle cry! It would not be enough, we had to tactically withdrew, but with each step back we took, we made them pay for it, dearly! We knew this was just the beginning, we called in an additional battle cruiser, this is the prelude to a larger conflict, Chapter Master Marneus Calgar knew this and is prepared to hold nothing back!
