Venue: Robinsons Galleria
Regulars Present: Balian, Salubri, Deadeye, John, Kyuzo, Sigismund, Ebon
Other Players Present: Special appearances from Kuneho, Carl(?) and Owen
Only managed a few games today, with an interesting mix of games:
--------------
Game1 - Salubri(Sword Of Light) vs. Balian(Steel Falcons)2000pts Annihilation, Spearhead (5th Ed Beta)
Salubri Wins!
Killpoint Score: 6-2
--------------
Game2 - Deadeye(Ultramarines) vs. John(Hive Fleet Kraken)2000pts Seek and Destroy Alpha
Draw! After 5 Turns
A more detailed battle report care of Deadeye in The Duel blog entry. This was fun to watch (more like overhear while it was my turn to play on the opposite table), having been able to see two brothers go at each other's necks on the gaming table while they could've easily have done this at home. But like what Deadeye said, securing the Draw in Galleria is sweeter compared to being cut to ribbons at home.
--------------
Game3 - Sigismund(Salamanders) vs. Kyuzo(Black Legion)2000pts Seek and Destroy Gamma
Draw!
Sigis still tinkering with a Salamander list while my newly modeled Daemon Prince took the three Defilers for a walk. With sparse terrain and Salamanders with Las Preds, Razorbacks and Dreadnoughts galore, I'd say my army was made for this list. Lolz. Except for the Defilers, majority of my forces was able to reach Salamander battle lines at one flank and tried to overload the rest of my forces there and try to work out a sweep to the opposite flank. But that FOTA sniping Librarian in the far flank was able to pin one squad to slow down my march. That's the second time that Librarian (once as a Blood Raven, now as a Salamander) screwed up my tactics. Will get that Librarian one of these days. Game ends in a draw.
--------------
Game4 - Ebon(Order of the Clenched Fist) vs. Salubri(Sword Of Light)2000pts Seize Ground (5 Terrain Counters), Dawn Of War (5th Ed Beta)
Draw!
Ebon's first stab at 5th Ed. Hehehe...
Ebon's Quotable Quote: "O ha! May Land Raider ako! ..... Syet." - after finding out he's up against Salubri's Eldar. :P
Game ends in a draw with Salubri and Ebon claiming one terrain counter each. Salubri had a chance to win when he zoomed one of his Falcons to contest Ebon's objective, only to realize he landed close to a six-sided die and not the actual terrain counter which was still out of his reach.

Received word that there might be no gaming tables next Saturday, to give way to a major pre-release tourney. Next gaming session most likely the Saturday after that (July 19).See you guys then.
