Venue: Somewhere in the Quezon City Area
Regulars Present: Midnight, Salubri aka Darth Chuck, Kyuzo, Lord Ravage, Deadeye
Highlights:
--------------
Game1 - Salubri(Craftworld Megil en Mea) vs. Midnight(Space Wolves)2000pts Capture and Control Mission, Dawn of War Deployment
Draw!
It wasn't the Craftworld's day with a slew of bad rolls at some critical points in the game that put them on the defensive while the Space Wolves' armored column made a steady advance towards the Craftworld's home objective.
Shining Spears made the game interesting by moving into close combat at the Space Wolves' home objective with the Dire Avengers and Storm Guardians not far behind in the hopes of claiming enemy objective once its clear.
Game ends in a tactical draw with no troops of either side close enough to claim any objective but the Space Wolves have a slight edge in Victory Points.
... unfortunately for Krieg's pack, the Bloodclaws riding the crusader lost all sense of direction when Regus was rendered unconcious by that Wraithlord's crushing blow. Instead of heading for the Eldar objective, they wasted time going after a bunch of fire dragons.
... Krieg also mistook the SW scouts as a claiming/scoring unit. Di pala troops lang pwede!
... newbie mistake for me, always keep your mind on the objective... as an old man would say, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory :P
--------------
Game2 - Lord Ravage(Peter North's Crimson Scars...:P) vs. Deadeye(Ultramarines)2000pts Capture and Control Mission, Dawn of War Deployment
Draw! 7Turns
With Lord Ravage's arrival with an army whose name is a work in progress that makes Deadeye blush... moving on...
This was a very close affair, with Deadeye making an early control of the center while Lord Ravage outflanking units try to sweep coming from one flank, reminiscent of some epic battle only seen in the movies. Extended turns proved critical in Lord Ravages efforts to successfully eliminate Ultramarines from claiming their home objective or sent them running. Game ends in a tactical draw.

Some Worthy Quotable Quotes from the Regulars (actually Deadeye took most of the credit this session):Deadeye: "I can't see your unit but I can see your eye..." *pointing his laser pointer checking to see if he can shoot*
Lord Ravage: "Don't shoot my eye!"
Deadeye: "Oh no sir! They're poking us from behind!"
Session ends 7:00pm
