I played in the TT this year. This was my first Adepticon. Those things being said I had no idea what to expect. My teammate took Warriors of Chaos for a fluffy mix.
My List
25 Bloodletters Full command Icon of Endless war
25 Bloodletters Full command
Herald of Khorne Armor of Khorne
Herald of Khorne Armor of Khorne (general)
3 Flamers of Tzeentch
Team mates list
Block of WOC marked nurgle with the frenzy banner and additional hand weapon
BLock of Khorne warriors with halberds
level 2 wizard no mark
20 marauders marked khorne
My First game was against Warrios of Chaos and Skaven.
I got off a second turn charge on my opponents warriors marked Tzeentch and won combat making his leadership test a 3.... guess who rolls a three? You guessed correct! Stuck in combat with chaos ogres looking at my flank.... That should NOT have happened. Needless to say that unit of bloodletters died. I did however soften up that unit and kill his general with my first round of combat. My second round saw me kill another 6 warriors but the ogres did me in and left me with only my herald and my standard after the combat rez instability.
Turn 3 bottom, their turn, he kills my herald and my last bloodletter but I managed to kill three more warriors making him have 6 left in the unit.. Not a bad tally reaped! Khorne warriors eat a chaos giant with no mark.
Top of 4 Khorne warriors charge to avenge the fallen BLoodletters and destroy the ogres, my other unit of bloodletters make it into combat with the Abomination after some horrific charge rolls which left my warrior friend solo on the abom. we manage to do 3 wounds to it in one turn but he got off avalanch and his warrios and my bloodletters took too many wounds. He out combat rezed us so we had to make break checks, I was fine my warrior friend ran. No biggie... I can do this! The abom at this point has 4 wounds. Their turn 4 I manage to do another wound to it and at this point my teammate is worried.
Top 5 I charge my flamers into the Abom... horray for I4 flaming attacks! My herald does no wounds as he is I6, and I decided (no brainer here) to do my flamers first. I need 4's by 5's and manage the final wound! He did kill my flamers to the last man at I4 but hey... I still got my swings back... Good job flamers.
After the ogres and the Abom fell we had the game in the bag, it was a matter of sweeping up and the skaven player walked away from the table in disgust.... turn 5.... We got all bonus objectives, and won hands down!
Game two. Blood and Glory
I walk to the table and my opponents are standing there with no miniatures. The younger extends his hand and says " Good game guys, nice win" At this point I dont know what happened and his father explains that they dont have any standards and even before deployment they are at breaking point. We decided to play a friendly game anyway and after they looked at our list they were glad they didnt have to face the armies we had when we were playing for the throat!
We destroyed em anyway..... no battle report needed.
Game three was the finest game of Fantasy I have ever played. My opponents were Alex G. of orc and goblin fame... yeah the best O&G general in the US!
The game was so bloody and cutthroat that I cant recap in in the 10 minutes I have left before work so I'll skip to the end.
Victory point difference 115 points...... Win Alex and Hodge! I didnt want to count the Victory points at the end of the game as it was the most exciting game I have ever played.... These two opponents are by far the greatest sportsmen and people I have met to date in the community outside my gaming group! I cant thank them enough for the game... and I lost!
We finished the tournament 2/1/0 with smiles on our faces... I cant ask for a better Sunday!
