Round 5 Vs Floody (again)
Deployment: Pitched
battle
Primary Objective:
Kill points
Secondary Objective:
Seize ground. One objective in the table centre and one objective
18” from either side.
Wagons ready to roll
The Battle:
Victory over the Guard
put the boyz back on table one. For the third time in four events the
orks were on table one for the last round. The Grey Knights were
still there but they had taken a knock from another Ork Waaagh, so
both sides needed a result.
The Orks got to go
first and opted for the tactical genius that is a straight charge
down the middle. Ghaz opt to stay with the wagons. The Knights
responded by castling in one quadrant with some rifle men forming a
refused flanks, looking for some side shots on the wagons.
Thunderwolf Vs Terminators
Turn one saw the flight
of the Deff Koptas which scout turbo boosted into position. A hail of
rockets and Buzz saw attacks followed resulting in one destroyed
razorback and one immobilised. The wagons began the long drive to
the Grey Knights deployment zone. The Knights countered with
shooting down the Koptas, with one sole survivor opting for a
tactical withdraw. Fire on the wagons destroyed one. A Ven dread was
deployed from a Raven and assaulted a wagon but score any hits.
The wagons rolled
forward. One tried to deff rolla a Ven Dread but had no effect. Then
it dropped its boarding plank and the nob attacked, with even less
effect. Ghaz, the Nobz and two wagons tried to hit a nearby Storm
raven but could not land any blows.
Wraithguard attack
The Knights countered
destroying the last of the fleeing Koptas. Saturated fire destroyed
all the wagons. The wagons were all gone but the boyz were where
they needed to be. Mega Nobz chased down a Strom Raven and destroyed
it. The Mexican boyz opted to assault a Ven Dread to clear it from an
objective. The Pirates boyz secured the middle objective. Ghaz joined
the Wild boyz who opted to Waaagh to get into contact with two
dreads. One of the dreads was destroyed with a klaw attack. Snikrot
made an appearance and kommandoes destroyed two Razorbacks and pinned
a henchman squad in combat.
The Vindicare and more
henchmen had to de-bus and assault the Kommandos to clear them from
the area. The Vindicare was wounded and another squad of henchmen was
destroyed. Ghaz and friends chopped down the second dreadnought and
pushed forward. The knights fired on the Pirates boyz. The nearest
was killed this enabled a second Ven Dread to assault into contest
range of an objective. Ghaz opted to fired on the wounded Vindicare
in the open but predictably missed with everything.
Terminators Vs gaurd (guess who won?)
A Henchman squad
claimed the third open objective. The knights blazed away at the wild
boyz reducing them to two models. The wild boyz opted to hid behind
some wrecks leaving Ghaz to go it alone. Which turned out to mean him
failing to assault an immobilised razorback containing some cowering
henchmen. The Mexicans boyz finally finished of the Ven Dreadnought
to clear an objective. Unfortunately the Pirate boyz could not do the
same.
The game ended with
both sides were tied on kill points and each holding an objective
with a Ven Dreadnought denying the Orks a second.
The Result: 10:10
Lamdraider targets TNI captain
The result put the Orks
into fifth place. The Grey Knights did not get enough for the win
with another Ork army claiming top spot. Not a bad weekend. But it
would be nice to stop the rematches versus the same army or same
player. The relatively low player numbers meant there were a lot of
rematches.
