Battle Bunker Results - April 7, 2009...

Attendance: Oberon, Kyuzo, Henri

Game1: Kyuzo(CSM-Black Legion) vs. Henri(Space Wolves)
Mission: 1500pts Capture and Control
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Henri Wins! One contested at Space Wolves Objective to none claiming CSM Objective

The 1500pt list I used:

2 Daemon Princes of Slaanesh with Wings, Lash of Submission
9 Thousand Sons squad with Aspiring Sorceror w/Bolt of Change, Rhino
7 Plague Marines squad with Plasma gun, Lascannon, Plague Champion w/Powerfist, Rhino
10 Chaos Space Marines with 2 Meltaguns, Aspiring Champion w/Powerfist, Rhino
10 Chaos Space Marines with Plasma gun, Lascannon, Aspiring Champion w/Power weapon+meltabomb, Rhino
1 Vindicator

The list Henri used: (Henri, insert list here. :P)

10 Blood Claws with 2Power Fist,1 meltagun on a Rhino 206pts
14 Blood Claws with a Rhino 3 Power Fist,1 Flamer 238pts
10 Grey Hunters with 1Power Fist, 1 power weapon, Plasma gun, bolters on a Rhino 249pts
10 Grey Hunters with 1Power Fist, 1 power weapon, Meltagun gun, bolters on a Rhino 251pts
1 Ven Dread AC+CCW/SB with EA 170pts
1 Dread AC+CCW/SB with EA 130pts
1 Wolf Priest power weapon, wolf tail necklace healing balms 135pts
5 man scouts meltagun, power weapon 96pts

Some highlights would probably be the fact that all of the tanks and vehicles destroyed were all destroyed in spectacular fashion (most rolled a 6 on armor penetration, with CSM and Space Wolf suffering quite a few casualties to "shrapnel"). Imagine mushroom cloud explosions with pieces of CSM Rhino or SW Dreadnought flying left and right. I also found new respect for Thousand Sons and Plague Marines despite their high points cost, enough for me to start painting a couple of these units for gaming. :D

Some relentless hand-to-hand combat from Space Wolf Bloodclaws and the later demise of both Daemon Princes tipped the balance in favor of the Sons of Russ. Kyuzo could only wish for a draw but game randomly ends on the fifth turn, resulting in Henri's first win over Kyuzo in quite a while. Good game Henri. Revenge will come swiftly, my Daemon Princes swear by it. ;)

Gaming ends with a bucket of beer over at Baliwag to cap off a tiring but fulfilling night of 40k gaming. Hoorah.
