The HGR Incursion To The ATC Sector - 1st Wave: Recon ...
Date: June 7, 2009
Incursion Sector: Alabang Town Center
The Roll Call:
HGR - Kyuzo, Deadeye, BattleCaptain, Henri, Grimnir
ATC - Rod, Roe, Paul, Jhei, with special appearances from Patrick Uy, Riza, Randell, Kent, Jim, Mark, and Louie
Incursion Highlights:
It was Sunday the next day and almost like clockwork I was able to round up the few Regulars who are willing to take on this recon mission to the South. We arrived just a little after lunch, just in time to help set up tables out of habit to the surprise of the NG ATC people.
Mission: 1500pts Seize Ground (5 Objectives)
Deployment: Pitched Battle
Result: BattleCaptain Wins! 2-0
The HGR troops got restless so they decided to play some "friendly" games against each other to sharpen up on some tactics. In this game BattleCaptain's Shrike-led Space Marines defeats Grimnir's Imperial Fists 2 objectives to none.
Mission: 1500pts Capture and Control
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Deadeye Wins! 1-0
Rod was the first to arrive among the South players. He was a little shell-shocked at the arrival of the Regulars and pressing him into a game while waiting for this schedule match against Paul. Good thing he was willing to give it a go starting out with Deadeye's Imperial Guard.
Mission: 1000pts Capture and Control
Deployment: Dawn of War
Result: Draw!
I contented myself in going up against Henri's Iron Wolves in an all too familiar scenario against an all too familiar opponent. All too familiar draw was a testament to Henri's improved tactics.
Mission: 1000pts Seize Ground (3 Objectives)
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Roe Wins via Tapout!
Roe's Blood Angels in da haus! Now being the Schemer that I was (Tzeentch guided my hand I guess :P), I thought it was a good idea to set his beautifully painted army against Grimnir's Imperial Fists. Things would've ended quite differently if only the Imperial Fists Terminators came in earlier... well, the pictures speak for themselves. Hehehe...
Mission: 1000pts Seize Ground (4-Objectives)
Deployment: Dawn of War
Result: BattleCaptain Wins! 2-1-1
South players started coming out of the woodwork from thereon in. Jhei arrives and brings out his Tyranids against BattleCaptain's Raven Guard. Some heavy defensive fire and gaps in the HiveFleet's offensive ends in the Space Marines claiming two objectives to the HiveFleet's one with one more objective contested.
Mission: 1500pts Annihilation
Deployment: Pitched Battle
Result: Rod Wins! 8-2
Paul finally arrives just in time for his grudge match against Rod. Watched this game every now and then, with Chaos methodically taking out Ultramarine units while Lashing termies away from the fight. Despite last turn heroics by Marnius Calgar, Rod wins eight killpoints to the Ultramarines' two.
Mission: 1000pts Annihilation
Deployment: Dawn of War
Result: Draw! 5-5
For a 1000pt game this took a little longer than usual, with Roe being outnumbered by reckless IG almost three to one. A hard fought draw was all there is to see when the dust settled.
Mission: 1000pts Seize Ground(3 Objectives)
Deployment: Dawn of War
Result: Henri Wins! Necrons phase out on the 5th turn.
Jhei calls up for another game, this time bringing out Necrons! And with a monolith at 1000pts! Whatda?! This was unexpected card pulled out by the South and before I knew it Henri decided to step up. Somewhere in the middle game a critical sweep of the Necron Lord proved the Necrons' downfall as they slowly reached phaseout numbers at the start of the 5th turn.
All in all I'd say the incursion was a success. Looks like we made new friends and had fun. Guess the South Sector will have trouble sleeping with the knowledge that we'll be coming back... Just a matter of when. ;)

HGR Journal Entry No. 099 - Some HGR Gaming Before The Incursion...
Date: June 6, 2009
Venue: Robinsons Galleria
Roll Call: George, JR, Deadeye, Patrick, Henri, Joshua, Kyuzo with special appearance from Owen
Gaming Highlights:
I went to Galleria to check out the HGR gaming scene as well as throw in something out of the blue for the Regulars to consider. But first, some gaming highlights:
Mission: 700pts Capture and Control
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Joshua Wins!
Heard this was Joshua's first ever recorded win using Eldar.
Mission: 1500pts Annihilation
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Henri Wins!
Got to see the closing rounds of this. JR's getting a better understanding of his army despite the fact he's up against one of the old dogs (pardon the pun Henri) of the game.
Mission: 1000pts Capture and Control
Deployment: Pitched Battle
Result: Ebon Wins!
Good to see Ebon still tries to play the game despite the health problems, with his tactics still being sharp as ever.
Mission: 1000pts Seize Ground
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Ryan Wins!
Mission: 2000pts Seize Ground(3 Objectives)
Deployment: Pitched Battle
Result: Kyuzo Wins! 2-0
It's no mistake, but JR has pushed his army pointage to 2000pts, even if it meant stretching the force organization limits a bit ;) while Kyuzo brought out his all-infantry Black Legion (coz he brought everything he had EXCEPT for the vehicles he was planning to use that day) :P First turn went to the Royal Hawks who brought to bear some serious shooting concentrating much of their sniper and lascannon fire to one Daemon Prince (reducing it to just one wound) as well as an orbital bombardment that reduced one 20-man CSM squad to just 7 models (Ouch...). Obliterators and Chaos Terminators come in on the 3rd Turn in a hope to even up the numbers and contest objectives the Royal Hawks were entrenching themselves. Some well timed Lashes of Submission from the Princes and Doom Siren from the Noise Marines displaced the Royal Hawks from key objectives to seal the win. JR gains a morale victory for killing one Daemon Prince in the process. Talk about dispelling ones demons. ;)
Good Game.
Mission: 1000pts Capture and Control
Deployment: Spearhead
Result: Patrick Wins! 1-0
Mission: 1000pts Seize Ground(3 Objectives)
Deployment: Pitched Battle
Result: Draw!
Henri started his Chaos Space Marine project and playtested his starting list with a good result against Grimnir's Green Tide. More converts to the Dark Side. :D
Session ends 9:00pm.
But a conclusion has yet to be written... ;)

---------------------
After packing up and over dinner I then told the Regulars my intent to visit ATC the next day to check out the 40k gaming action to which quite a number enthusiastically agreed. Some general details were discussed regarding time of deployment, the battlebarge course, some rules of engagement, and logistics before we called it a day. All was in agreement, and the assets for the First Wave has been set. The ATC players will never know what hit them. Hehe...Session ends 9:00pm.
But a conclusion has yet to be written... ;)
