Copied from Serpent's Lair:

So, I am going to a tournament at the start of november...

I built my 1500p list and proxied a few things. All of the things on the list are out on the 'interwebz' already so I figured I might as well post the list here, without points(WW correct me if I am doing something mistakenly).

Huron Blackheart, aka Alphuron the Randomizer


CSMx10, 2xMelta, 10x ccw, veterans, power sword, gift of mutation, melta bombs, rhino, havoc launcher

CSMx10, 2xMelta, 10x ccw, veterans, power sword, gift of mutation, melta bombs, rhino, havoc launcher

CSMx6, 1xMelta, 1x ccw, 5x bolter->ccw, veterans, MoK, power maul, gift of mutation, combi-melta, rhino (Alphuron goes here)


CSM Bikers x5, 2xPlasma, gift of mutation power sword

Heldrake, baleflamer


Forgefiend(standard dakka)

Havocs x5, 4x Autocannon, veterans



My opponent was a GK list with Mordrak, termies, Coteaz, lots of henchmen(apes, plasma, stormbolters, assasins and crusaders) rhinos and a LR(with crusaders+assassins). Mission was Big Guns Never Tire with 3 objectives and I opted to deploy first(and got to put out objectives first as well, which was nice). Alphuron gave two units infiltrate, and I chose my two standard marine squads who infiltrated with their rhinos. My CSM champions got Hatred, +1Ws and +1 save on their rolls, and my biker got shrouded on his, wich was very fitting! smile.gif


First turn saw little action. A few potshots here and there, my rhinos lost some HPs and so did his(basically ignored his LR until turn 3 I think), my havocs lost three autocannon guys.

Second turn saw my Heldrake enter, vector striking one of mordraks knights into oblivion and flaming another three, who all make their saves unfortunately. Alphuron rolls Forewarning as his psychic power, casts it and exits his rhino. He and his gang decimates Mordraks friends further with melta and boltpistol awesomeness! (They were going to recieve the charge, but at leats they have a 4+ invul, hehe) Mordrak slaughters Alphuron in melee while the rest do nothing. A few pot shots more, my bikers destroy a rhino with plasma(man it was so long ago I played with bikers I have forgotten how fast they are), drake finds a perfect spot and vaporises seven henchmen in one go!

Third turn and Mordrak is victorious. I race towards an objective with my marines along with one of his henchmen units in a rhino. Their rhino is taken out and the Heldrake flames the inhabitants to oblivion. One of my squads exchange fire with a termie squad at max range, it's not going favorably for my csm unit.

Fourth turn my csm unit decides that they don't want to exchange fire with the termies any longer and retreats back into a rhino(one HP is still a functioning rhino, hehe), Mordrak assaults it and wrecks it easily. Heldrake decides to take a chance and hover, trying to flame the last monkeys, but fails. Fortunately the remaining monkey missed with his MM!

Fifth turn, my csm freshly out of the wrecked rhino finds an opportunity to take the last HP off the LR with their meltas. They do so with ease and it explodes, killing three assassins. Some more guys are killed by the last rhino's havoc launcher and the rest is butchered in melee from my csm squad. The remnants of the termie squad go for my marines but fail to reach and Mordrak goes for my remaining havocs that still hold an objective. Mordrak kills the havoc champ and the last havoc says "f*** this Smurf" and flees off the board with a gracious 12" move!

Sixth turn, the remaining two bikes, my half csm squad(still with two meltas) and the heldrake all go for mordrak and manage to wipe him out.


The game ends, and I hold one objective with my racing csm squad, he holds one with his henchmen, both our warlords are dead, but I got first blood! A small victory is still a victory, and somewhere beyond the sensory range of the scattered GK force sits the real Alphuron and plots for his next move...


A few notes. The Forgefiend was shooting his dakka every single turn, and managed to slaughter quite a bit, but got immobilized behind a damn wall. He took three HP of the LR, killed a few termies and Coteaz and a rhino. Honorable mentions to Alphuron's rhino, that after he disembarked, shot its combi-bolter and killed a termie! biggrin.gif Gift of mutation was fun! Got some nice stuff on all four of them, but I didn't succeed in any challenges so I didn't get to roll any more on the chart after that unfortunately...

I'm thinking of taking out a bike and swapping in plasmas instead of meltas for my two 'standard' csm squads and also to give the remaining bikes veterans. That would put me in an awful position considering AV14 though. Without the meltas they would never have killed those assassins, but with plasmas they might have killed a few more termies. Hmm...

Sounds like your Helldrake was your MVP from the batrep. You didn't say anything about the fiend though during the actual report was it more of a support sort of unit?

The FF ended up immobilized next to a building and had a crap LoS during the game, but still managed to inflict three HP on the LR during two turns, take two HP off a rhino in one turn, and decimate his one termie squad including killing coteaz...


[Edit]: Most of the things I don't mention is because I forgot what turn they happened in. Also, some strange rhino-hopping occured, lol. Huron started by disembarking(to face the threat of mordrak) when that rhino had 2 HP left. Squad #1 disembarked when their rhino had 1 HP left, squad #2's rhino exploded and squad #2 embarked in squad #1's rhino and zoomed away for an objective(after the FF got immobilized just out of it's range) while squad #1 hopped into Hurons rhino and shielded themselves against Mordrak's assault...
