Fire Dragons with Exarch
Striking Scorpions with Exarch
2 x Dire Avengers with Exarch

Deployment
The Scouring, Dawn of War, six objectives placed as follows: both 2s were are the short board edge to the left of the BA’s deployment zone, both 3s were on the long board edge that was the BA’s deployment zone, the 4 was quite central and the 1 was in cover near the Eldar board edge. The board itself has three wooded hills that count as mystical forests.
Farseer rolls Eldritch Storm, Guide and Fortune
BA Warlord Trait is a waste of time, Eldar get to re-roll all 1s to hit in the shooting phase once per game.

The BA castle up with the Razorbacks at the forefront and the JDC with Astorath are placed in cover behind them. Both Attack Bikes and the Land Speeder occupy the left flank while the DCD and Pod is in reserve. BA are due to have the first turn.

In response the Eldar deploy their Guardians opposite the Razors and in cover on their board edge. This forest is a Overgrown Spinethorn meaning they get a 2+ save against grenades... Everything else fans out behind that hill that is just in front of their deployment zone. From nearest to farthest (BA persepective): Wraithguard -> Avatar -> Fire Dragons -> DA1 -> Farseer -> -> DA2. The Striking Scorpions infiltrate into hill that is in the BA deployment zone. This hill is an Ironbark forest which meant that they got a 3+ cover save...

Turn one

BA

Five from FDC die to combined fire from the Wraithguard and DA1 while the Scorpions use Battle Focus to be able to pick off one from JDC and the Guardians kill a bike for a bonus VP. Everything else runs to close the gap.

BA deploy behind the ruin with the two Razorbacks and the JDC just behind them. The Librarian rides with the RAS. The Attack Bikes are hiding behind a small piece of terrain the south of the tanks and the DCD is in reserve with the Drop Pod.

http://tbheq2.org/fs.php?id=6bfaa31b8325ba7855e31ab38d46d393

The Eldar deploy a line running north to south of WS1 (containing DA1), WS2 (containing DA2) and the Wraithknight, with the Guardians just in front and a little off centre. The Autarch in placed into reserve and the Rangers infiltrate to a wall beside the LoS blocking terrain.

http://tbheq2.org/fs.php?id=4b26bbfff6080b130291f595bee44090

Warlord traits offer very little with Astorath getting Inspiring Presence (anything within 12” uses his leadership) and the Autarch getting Falcon’s Swiftness (+1 run). No Blood Angel suffers from the Red Thirst this game and the Night Fighting rules are not in play.
With the roll for Seize the Initiative declined, Blood Angels are to go first.

Turn one

BA
~ The Drop Pod lands in the centre of the board to give some cover and the DCD moves behind the large terrain piece. The Tanks, JDC and the bikes advance on the enemy using the Drop Pod for extra cover
~ Everything opens up on the Rangers and as the smoke clears only three have perished. The bikes Turbo Boost up the hill to get into range.

Eldar
~ The Wraithknight advances to the south of the LoS terrain along with the Guardians. WS1 and WS2 strafe north to get into decent firing positions. This triggers the one point objective but it is nothing of note.
~ Shield of Sanguinius works. Both Wave Serpents open up on the tanks and do no damage. Only the Wraithknight can do something of note this turn and takes a wound off the lead Attack Bike.

BA: 0-0 :Eldar

http://tbheq2.org/fs.php?id=45a5ddadc7dd4ffd6e013e123aef27c1

Turn Two

BA
~ The DCD advances on the Guardians while the tanks, JDC and the bikes head towards the Pod.
~ The Plaserback shoots WS1 but causes no damage while the rest of the army tries again to remove the Rangers who, after having Gone to Ground, lose only one of their number.
~ The DCD fails its charge on the Guardians by 1”.

Eldar
~ No Autarch this turn. The Wraithknight again advances while the Guardians retreat toward their board edge and away from the encroaching DCD. Again WS1 strafes while WS2 advances on the BA armour.
~ Shield of Sanguinius again works and the Guardians move onto their board edge. Both Attack Bikes die to the fire of WS1 for 2 VP (First Blood, Fast Attack) while WS2 explodes the Plaserback causing one fatality to the JDC and one to the RAS passengers. Their pinning test it passed. The Wraithknight then opens up on the RAS killing them all and wounding the Librarian once.

BA: 0-2 :Eldar

http://tbheq2.org/fs.php?id=0de2164cfc4fc5b0dbeaeb490bb77343

Turn Three

BA
~ The DCD moves around the LoS terrain towards the Rangers and Eldar tanks while the JDC also advance towards them. The Librarian gets into cover. The Bolterback also advances.
~ The Rangers again Go to Ground and only lose one of their number. The DCD pops smoke and the Bolterback kills three Guardians who turn tail and flee off the board.
~ The DCD again fails its charge, this time of the Rangers but the JDC manage and annihilate them.

Eldar
~ The Autarch deepstrikes in behind the Librarian. DA2 disembark from WS2 into cover. DA1 disembark from WS1 into a nearby wood which turns out to be a Ironbark Forest (3+ cover save). The Wraithknight moves close to the two point objective which is booby trapped.
~ Shield of Sanguinius is successfully cast. Two HPs are removed from the Bolterback and it is Shaken for the next turn. DA2 kill three from JDC and WS2 finishes the job, while the Wraithknight knocks a HP off the DCD. The Autarch misses.
~ The Autarch moves away 9” while the Wraithknight charges the DCD. The impact knocks off another HP before it is wrecked with regular attacks.

BA: 0-2: Eldar

http://tbheq2.org/fs.php?id=227fe30862d1c788848ae3ccf8ea57aa

Turn Four

BA
~ Everything remaining again advances (Linebreaker is active) while Astorath moves towards the Autarch.
~ Astorath knocks a wound off the Autarch and combined bolt fire kills two from DA1. The Librarian then casts Fear of the Darkness causing them to flee 9” towards their board edge.
~ Astorath charges the Autarch and defeats him to claim a secondary objective (Slay the Warlord).

Eldar
~ DA1 fail to regroup and flee from the battlefield. The Wraithknight moves slightly away from Astorath to get a better firing position.
~ Shield of Sanguinius again works but the Wraithknight scores a wound on Asotrath. The Bolterback is wrecked by WS1 and the Librarian Goes to Ground.
~ The Wraithknight charges Asotrath and squishes him for Slay the Warlord.

BA: 2-3 :Eldar

http://tbheq2.org/fs.php?id=36f8cd566cc0ad7f874afeac6f3a3a78

Turn Five

BA
~ With only the FDC and a Drop Pod remaining, and seeing that the Eldar can easily claim any objective, the Blood Angels concede the game.

Blood Angels Vs Eldar – 2000 points

Army Lists

Blood Angels
2000 Light Mech/Hybrid list

Eldar
Avatar of Khaine
Farseer with two Warlocks
2 x Dire Avenger squads, each in a Wave Serpent
Guardian Squad with Scatter Laser platform
2 x Warp Spider squads
Crimson Hunter
2 x Wraithlord
Wraithknight


Deployment
Spoils of War
The map is as per the mission. The board is set up as:
123
456
Where there is a hill on the table edges of board 2 & 5, and a hill on the table edges that split board 1 & 4 and 3 & 6. Hills 1&4 and 3&6 have an Imperial Bastion, whilst there is a Shyshield landing pad in the centre of the board. All three are deactivated. To reach the battlements of the Bastion, one must be in range of the access point, to get on top of the Shyshield, one must approach the legs. There is a broken barricade around the Shyshield and in the remaining spaces, there are some rocks and/or foliage.

Objective 1 is on the battlements of Bastion 1-4, Objective 2 is in the centre of board 5, Objective 3 is on top of the Shyshield and 12” away from Objective 2, Objective 4 is in the centre of board 3, Objective 5 is in the rocks that reside in board 6, while Objective 6 is in the rocks that reside in board 1. These are mysterious objectives.

Mephiston rolls on Biomancy gaining Warp Speed, Enfeeble, Hemorrhage, Smite (and Force)
FLD rolls on Telepathy gaining Hallucinogen, Mental Fortitude, Psychic Shriek (and Force)
Farseer rolls Executioner, Fortune, Guide and Death Mission
Warlocks both roll Enhance/Drain and Conceal/Reveal

Mephiston’s Warlord Trait is Tenacity (Feel No Pain)
The Farseer’s Warlord Trait is Ambush of Blades (Re-roll to wound once per game)

Eldar deploy first along board edge 123 in the following manner from 1-3:
Guardians -> Avatar -> WL1 -> WL2 -> Wave1 -> Wave2-> WK. The Farseer and Warlocks are behind the WLs, whilst the Cimson Hunter and the Warp Spiders are held in reserve. Mysterious objective 6 is discovered by the Guardians to be nothing of note.

The Blood Angels castle up opposite the Avatar as so:
Bolterback -> Land Raider ->Plaserback -> Predator
Whirlwind -> Damocles
Corbulo rides with the Death Company. Mephiston and the FLD are placed inside the Stormraven and are held in reserve, along with the Land Speeder and both Attack Bikes. The Scouts infiltrate out of sight behind Bastion 1-4. The Plaserback discovered mysterious objective 2 to be nothing of note. No Blood Angels fall to the Red Thirst and Eldar have the first turn.

Thanks for reading :)

 

To be honest, I was feeling a little depressed around turn two. A kind of "not again" trail of thought but I stuck at it as I believe I could turn it around. There's always next time ;)

2 x Wraithlord

2 x Warp Spiders

Crimson Hunter - Exarch

Deployment

Mission: Deadlock

Setup: Vanguard Strike

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:

ABC

DEF

In the centre of the board is an inactive Skyshield Landing Pad. At each corner of the board is a hill. Tiles A and F each have an inactive Bastion (denoted Bas5 and Bas6 respectively). Tile C has a ruin and Tile D has some low level terrain. Other than that, there's a smattering of Aegis Line walls dotted about the place. Cover is either 4+ or 5+.

In Tile A, objective five is placed to the south of the Bastion while objectives 3 and 4 are placed to the northwest and southeast of the Sky Shield respectively. Tile C has objective one to the east of the ruin, Tile D has objective two to the south of its main terrain piece and finally, Tile F has objective 6 to the north of its Bastion.

In addition to Force, the Librarian rolls on Divination gaining Foreboding and Scrier’s Gaze to complement Prescience. The Spirit Seer rolled on the Runes of Battle gaining Quicken/Restrain and Protect/Jinx to compliment Conceal/Reveal.

The Librarian’s Warlord Trait was Soulwarden (Adamantium Will), whilst the Avatar’s trait was Ambush of Blades.

Winning the role off, the Eldar deploy first. In a horizontal line running from the long board edge DEF to the short edge CF they deploy as follows: Guardians and Spirit Seer (G-SS) -> Avatar -> WG2 -> Bas6 (which contains the second squad of Guardians on the battlements) -> WG1, with both the Wraithlords in behind them. This triggers Objective 6 to be a Grav-wave Generator. The Warp Spiders and Crimson Hunter start in reserve.

gallery_62972_9890_121010.jpg

Leaving the Stormraven (and it’s Scout cargo) and the Fragioso (in the Lucius Pod) in Reserve, the Blood Angels deploy next. With the majority castling up behind Bas5, just the Predator, Plaserback and Attack Bike take up a flanking position behind an Aegis wall. Finally, the Vindicare is placed in Aegis cover just in front of the BA lines. The Blood Angels are gifted first turn.

The FLD’s Warlord Trait was Soulwarden (Adamantium Will), whilst the Spirit Seer’s trait was Ambush of Blades (once per game re-roll of 1s to wound within 12”).

Winning the role off, the Eldar nominate the Blood Angels to deploy first, who leave the Terminators, Stormraven (and its cargo of Mephiston and the FLD), and the Assault Squad (RAS) (in the Drop Pod) in Reserve. The Predator and Vindicator take their left flank, with the Tactical Squad occupying Objective 5 in the trees. These are screened by the Redeemer. The Bikes are placed next and finally, the Cerberus occupies a good firing lane.

The first Guardian squad (G1) deploy in a wood near the Eldar board edge in Tile B. The first squad of Wraithguard (WG1) deploys inside the first Wave Serpent (WS1) just behind G1, whilst the first squad of Dire Avengers (DA1) deploy adjacent to them inside WS2. The second Guardian squad that contains the Spirit Seer (SS-G2) occupy a wood near Objective 1 and these are backed up by WG2 inside WS3. DA2 deploys in the corner and inside of WS4 while the Wraithknight stands on the hill that straddles Tiles C and F. The Crimson Hunter starts in reserve.

The Blood Angels aren’t challenged for first turn.

Mission: Tactical Escalation

Setup: Dawn of War

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:

ABC

DEF

Running along the border of Tile C and F lies a hill, on top of which is a Skyshield Landing Pad (SLP). In the centre of Tiles B and E is an Imperial Bastion. The rest of the board is covered in patches of forest, rocks and a crashed Aquila Lander. Cover is 5+ with the exception of the SLP and Bastion which are a 4+.

Objective 3 lies in Tile F, on the outskirts of a wood which straddles Tiles E and F. Objective 4 lies on the foot of the SLP that steps into Tile C and Objective 1 sits in the wood which straddles Tiles B and C. Objective 5 sits near some rocks in Tile A while Objective 6 sits on top of Tile E’s Bastion. Finally, Objective 2 sits near the door on Tile B’s Bastion.

In addition to Force, the Librarian rolls on the Divination table getting Forewarning and Foreboding to complement Prescience.

The Chaplain’s Warlord Traits were Master of Ambush (The Chaplain and three units have Infiltrate) and Strategic Genius (+1 to reserves), whilst the Autrach’s trait was Mark of the Incomparable Hunter (Warlord gains Split Fire).

Winning the role off, the Eldar deploy first, who leave the Autrach, Crimson Hunter and both squads of Warp Spiders (AWS denoting that it also contains the Autrach and EWS denoting that it contains an Exarch) in Reserve. Deployed in a line, Tile F has the first Wave Serpent (WS1) and this contains the first squad of Dire Avengers (DA1). The rocks between Tile E and F that has Obj5 contains the first squad of Guardians (G1). The woods that transverse Tiles D and E harbour G2 (and thus, they have Obj1) and to their left in Tile D sits WS2 (which contains DA2).

The Blood Angels deploy their Bike Squadron behind cover in Tile A.

Next, the Blood Angels Infiltrate one squad of Death Company along with the Chaplain (C-DC1) onto the SLP, one squad (DC2) onto the Lander ruins in front of Obj6, the third squad of DC (DC3) on the same flank as the Bikes and the Callidus reveals herself by the Bastion 2 doorway. The only place for the Rangers to Infiltrate is a wood in Tile F.

The Blood Angels Seize the Initiative for first turn!

Mission: Spoils of War

Setup: Dawn of War

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:

ABC

DEF

Running along the border of Tile C and F lies a hill, on top of which is a Skyshield Landing Pad (SLP). In the centre of Tiles B and E is an Imperial Bastion. The rest of the board is covered in patches of forest, rocks and a crashed Aquila Lander. Cover is 5+ with the exception of the SLP and Bastion which are a 4+.

Objectives 1 and 3 lie in Tile B at each internal corner. Objective 5 lies to the right of Objective 3 on the hill and just inside Tile F. Objectives 4 and 6 are in Tile D. 4 is in a wood that straddles Tiles A and D while 6 is out in the open. Finally, Objective 2 sits atop the Bastion in tile E.

In addition to Guide, the Farseer rolls Death Mission, Doom and Fortune. To complement Conceal/Reveal, the Spirit Seer rolls Destructor/Renewer and Empower/Enervate.

Astorath’s Warlord Trait is Soulwarden (Adamantium Will), while the Farseer rolls Falcon’s Switfness (Warlord and unit add +1 to run moves)

Deploying first along the DEF board edge, the Blood Angels set their Bikes on the left flank near to Obj6 (which is a Scatter Field). Next, the first squad of Death Company deploys with Astorath (A-DC1) on the left of the Bastion in Tile E, whilst the second squad (DC2) deploy to its right. The Dreadnought starts in reserve.

For the Eldar, the Howling Banshees take to the field inside the third Wave Serpent (WS3). The deploy near to Obj3 and the Guardians deploy in front of them and inside cover. The Farseer and first squad of Dire Avengers (F-DA1) take to the field inside WS1, and this deploys straddling Tile B and C. WS2 (which contains the Spirit Seer and DA2) deploy behind the hill in Tile C.

Winning the roll off, the first squad of Scouts (S1) deploy on the Aquila Lander and out of line of sight of the Eldar. S2 deploys near Obj5 and in cover of the hillside. The Callidus reveals herself next to the Guardians. Having negated most of the field, the Striking Scorpions deploy behind WS2.

The Blood Angels get the first turn but just before they do, S1 redeploys towards Obj1 and S2 redeploys towards Obj5.

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:




ABC

There are Bastions in Tile A and F, while there is hill in the corner of Tiles C and D. Running along the centre Tiles B and E lays the wreckage of an Aquila Lander and there’s a smattering of Aegis Defence Line walls dotted about. Cover is 5+ with the exception of the ADL and Bastions which are a 4+. You can access the Bastion’s battlements via the door but you can’t embark and the weapons are inactive.

Objective 6 lies to the north of the Bastion in Tile A. On the boarder of Tiles A and B there is a wall which hides Objective 1, whilst Objective 3 is on the wreck that boarders Tiles B and E. Objective 5 is also against a wall, this time on the boarder of Tiles B and C while Objective 4 is to the south of the Bastion in Tile F. Finally, Objective 2 is on a wall between Tiles D and E.

In addition to Guide, the Farseer rolls Eldritch Storm Fortune and Mind War.

The Chaplain rolls for his Warlord Trait on the Flesh Tearers’ table and receives Blood Mad (Feel no Pain), while the Farseer rolls Falcon’s Switfness (Warlord and unit add +3 to run moves).

Deploying first along the DEF board edge, the Blood Angels set up in a line from the middle of Tile E to the Bastion in Tile F in the following order Imperial Knight Paladin (IK) -> Sicaran ->Death Company (DC2) with Chaplain (C-DC2) in Rhino 2 -> Death Company (DC1) with Chaplain (Warlord) (W-DC2) in Rhino 1. The two Drop Pods, their cargo and the Stormraven with DC 3 start in Reserve. Rhino 1 activates Obj4 which is a Grav-wave Generator.

The three Falcons and their Cargo of Dire Avengers (E-DA1, DA2 and DA3) start in Reserve. The three Wave Serpents (WS) deploy to the north west of the board in Tile A. WS1 is in the corner and contains both the Fire Dragons (E-FD) and the Farseer. The other two Wave Serpents each contain a unit of Wraithguard. WS3 activates Obj6 which is a Targeting Relay.

The Scouts deploy out of sight to the south east of the Bastion in Tile A.

The Blood Angels get the first turn but just before they do, the Scouts re-deploy by moving towards the Eldar tanks.

Deployment

Mission: Cleanse and Control

Setup: Dawn of War

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:

ABC

DEF

In the centre of the board is an inactive Skyshield Landing Pad (SLP). At the external corners of A -D is a hill, whilst there is also a hill running between the boarder of A - B and C - F. On the edge of Tile C is a Bastion (B1), while there is a second one on the edge of Tile D (B2). Tile F has a ruin and there is a crashed Imperial Lander (IL) on the A-D hill. Cover is 4+ all round.

Objective 4 is placed north of the SLP in Tile B by a barricade, while Objective 1 is similarly placed to the south of the SLP in Tile E. Objective 5 sits near B1 and Objective 6 sits near Tile F’s ruin. Objective 2 sits in the centre of Tile A and Objective 3 sits amongst the IL wreckage. Mysterious Objectives are in play.

gallery_62972_9890_118672.jpg

In addition to Force, the Furioso Librarian Dreadnought (FLD) rolls on Daemonology: Malefic gaining Incursion and Cursed Earth to complement Summoning. The Farseer rolled on the Runes of Fate table rolling Doom, Fortune and Eldritch Storm to compliment Guide. The Spirit Seer rolled on the Runes of Battle gaining Destructor/Renewer and Protect/Jinx to compliment Conceal/Reveal. The Warlock gained Destructor/Renewer from the Runes of Battle table to pair with Conceal/Reveal.

The FLD’s Warlord Trait was Speed of the Primarch (+1 INT); whilst the Farseer’s trait was Fate’s Messenger (re-roll 1s on saves.).

With the battle being fought during the day and the Eldar player winning the roll off, they decide to deploy first in a long, thin battle line on the DEF side of the board. The first Guardian squad (G1) deploy in Tile F’s ruin on the ground floor, where they are joined by the Warlock and three members of Vaul Wrath who take a floor each. This reveals Objective 6 to be a Grav-wave Generator. The first squad of Wraithguard (WG1) deploys adjacent to them and the second Guardian squad (G2) is next in line, sitting in the centre of Tile E. This reveals Objective 1 to be a Targeting Array. Behind them stands the WK. The Farseer takes up residence within the second squad of Wraithguard (WG2) and the War Walkers are behind them, who are flanking B2. The third squad of Guardians (G3) sits atop B2 and adjacent to them is the third squad of Wraithguard (WG3) who have the Spirit Seer with them. Lastly, the lone Wraithlord takes up the far flank in Tile D and the Vypers sit in Reserve.

Seeing this, the Drop Pod (with RAS cargo) and the Stormraven (with Scouts, Techmarine and FLD) start in Reserve. The Cerberus deploys in the corner of Tile C with the Redeemer next to it (Tactical are inside). Deploying here reveals Objective 4 to be a Skyfire Nexus. In the space behind, the Whirlwind sits out of sight. In Tile B, the Vindicator and Predator sit in cover with the Sicaran behind them. The Bikes are out of sight behind the Bastion.

The Blood Angels fail to Seize the Initiative and the Eldar player kicks off.

Turn One

Eldar

~ The following Tactical Objectives (TO) are drawn: 36 (Claim Objective 6), 42 (Behind Enemy Lines), 61 (Kingslayer)

~ The Wraithlord moves towards the IL which promptly explodes without inflicting any damage. Here it is joined by WG3. The WK moves onto the SLP with WG1 and WG2 not far behind. The WW advance to the SLP’s other flank.

~ Guide is cast on the WK, Fortune on WG2 and Protect and Conceal on WG3.

~ The WK knocks a HP off the Vindicator and shakes it, then takes a further two HPs and a sponson lascannon from the Predator. Then it retreats towards the back of the SLP. The WL advances again and explodes the Predator (First Blood), whilst WG3 move up to Objective 3 (it’s a Bomb). The WWs then unload on the Vindicator and wreck it.

~ TO 36 is turned in for 1 VP.

Blood Angels

~ TOs 21 (Claim Objective 1), 22 (Claim Objective 2) and 64 (Assassinate) are drawn

~ The Drop Pod comes in behind the WW and disgorges the RAS into short range. The Cerberus, Redeemer and Whirlwind all advance along the flank to find better firing positions. The Bikes move towards the SLP whilst the Sicaran reverses away from it.

~ The Bikes can only take 1 wound from the WK due to FnP, the RAS whiff their rolls and only wreck one WW and the Redeemer kills one VW support weapon. The Drop Pod, Cerberus’s heavy bolters and Whirlwind claim half of G2 but they hold firm.

~ TO 22 is discarded.

Eldar: 2-0 :BA

gallery_62972_9890_859670.jpg

Turn Two

Eldar

~ TO 53 (No Prisoners) is drawn

~ The WK advances towards B1 and the Bikes, with WG1 heading onto the SLP. On the other side of the SLP the WW advance towards the Sicaran with WG2 in tow. WG3 move strafe off the IL whilst the WL continues its trek up the flank. G3 climb down from their Bastion and move into range of the RAS.

~ Fortune is cast on WG2, Guide is cast on the WK and Conceal is cast on the VWs.

~ WG1 Battle Focus towards the Redeemer and explode it. The Explosion slays the heavy flamer from the Tactical Squad and then pins the rest of them in place. WG2 Battle Focus towards the bikes but can only vaporise the Sergeant while G3 annihilate the RAS and hop back onto the roof of their Bastion. G2 move away from the Drop Pod to enable WG3 to explode it, but they still lose one of their number. The WK fires both its heavy wraithcannons at the Cerberus causing catastrophic damage and its secondary weapons knock a wound off a nearby Attack Bike. Finally G1 strip a HP from the Whirlwind.

~ The Wraithknight easily dispatches Bikes and consolidates into the BA deployment zone.

~ TO 42 is cashed in for 1 VP while 53 is cashed in for 2 VP.

Blood Angels

~ TO 46 (Dominion) is drawn

~ The Stormraven arrives and makes a beeline towards the Wraithknight while the Whirlwind retreats from the encroaching WG1.

Turn Three

Eldar

~ TOs E11 (Legacy of Sorrow) and 43 (Hold The Line) are drawn

~ The Vypers arrive behind G1, the WK moves back onto the SLP and the rest of the Eldar force shuffle around into better positions.

~ Renewer is cast on the WK, Fortune is cast on WG2 and Guide is cast on G3.

~ Thanks to Wraithsight, WG2 hit and explode the Stormraven. The explosion kills three Scouts, the Techmarine and causes a penetrating hit on the FLD which in turn explodes (Slay the Warlord) 0.o The WK promptly wrecks the Sicaran and the WWs kill the remaining Scouts.

Deployment
Mission: Cleanse and Control
Setup: Vanguard Strike
The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:

ABC

DEF

There are hills on the external corners of tiles C and F, and there is a hill straddling the boundary of tiles A and B. All structures are ruins and follow the BRB rules for them, but the ground floor of a ruin offers no cover save or imposes no movement penalties. Ascending a floor is done via an access point or climbing the edges/through a window, descending is done via an access point of by jumping. There are two five floor ruins in the centre of the board connected with bridges and one in tile E. Tile D has a three floor ruin near its boundary with Tile A and there’s another three floor ruin on hill AB. Tile boundary BC has a two floor ruin and there’s a three floor ruin in the middle of tile C. Finally there’s an Imperial Statue on the tile F hill which affords the same cover save as everything else.
Objective (Obj) 1 is placed on hill AB while Obj2 is placed adjacent to the Imperial Statue. Obj3 is on the ground floor of the central building and Obj4 is on the top floor of tile E’s ruin. Obj5 sits underneath tile D’s ruin and Obj6 sits near to tile C’s ruin. Mysterious Objectives are in play.
In addition to Guide, the Farseer rolls Doom, Mind War and Fortune of the Runes of Fate table. The Warlock Conclave get Destructor/Renewer to compliment Conceal/Reveal of the Runes of Battle table.
The SP’s Warlord Traits were Conqueror of Cities (army has Move Through Cover [Ruins] and Stealth [Ruins]) and Divide and Conquer (-1 opponent Reserve Rolls); whilst the Farseer’s trait was Falcon’s Swiftness (+3 to run rolls).
Deploying first, the Blood Angels set up the ADL between the ruins in tiles D and E, with the quad gun in tile D. Adjacent to this is the Rhino with the Tactical Squad (which have split into Combat Squads) and the Dreadnought on the first floor (Obj5 revealed to be a Skyfire Nexus) The Damocles is behind the large ruin in tile E and the Devastators, SP and Inquisitor take up positions on the top floor of the same ruin next to Obj4 (Grav Wave Generator). The Servo Skulls are stretched across no-mans land with one being by Obj1, one being on the fourth floor of the middle ruin and one being near Obj2.
To counter this, the Eldar army sets up out of site. The first squad of Warp Spiders (WS1) sits being the ruin in tile A. The first squad of Rangers (R1) sets up in ruin BC with the Howling Banshees underneath, second squad of Guardians (G2) to the east and the second squad of Warp Spiders (WS2) behind. Huddled around the next building by Obj6 is the first squad of Guardians (G1), the Farseer and Warlock Council. In front of them is the Fire Dragons and right in the external corner of Tile C is the final squad of Guardians (G3)
The Blood Angels Scouts infiltrate as close to the middle ruin as they can whilst the second squad of Rangers (R2) get themselves out of sight by the Imperial Statue. Both squads of Striking Scorpions but themselves into the BA deployment zone on the boundary of tile EF. The Scouts make their Scout move up to the first floor of the ruin and as dawn approaches, the Blood Angels get the first turn.

Enjoyed the BA v Eldar. Great job. While video is great, I really do like the older style pic-based battle reports as well.

 

Thanks for the response :) So long as it's easy to follow and doesn't put the reader to sleep I'm happy enough...

 

I've actually got another report versus Eldar to put up (I really need to play against something else) that has a slightly better outcome for me in ;)

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:


ABC

DEF

There are hills on the external corners of tiles C and D. All structures are ruins and follow the BRB rules for them, but the ground floor of a ruin offers no cover save or imposes no movement penalties. Ascending a floor is done via an access point or climbing the edges/through a window, descending is done via an access point of by jumping. Tiles A and C each have a ruin in the centre of them and there are two ruins in tile B. Tile D and E each have a ruin that is off-centre to the right, with Tile E also having a fenced off area with some smoking wreckage. Tile F has two ruins: one is in the top left and one in the bottom right. Finally, there’s an Imperial Statue in the centre of the board which affords the same cover save as everything else.
Objective (Obj) 1 is placed on the ruin in tile D while Obj2 is placed adjacent to the Imperial Statue in tile B. Obj3 is on the first floor of the innermost ruin of tile F and Obj4 is in tile B underneath the ruin that is adjacent to tile A. Obj5 sits near the smoking wreckage and Obj6 sits by Tile D’s ruin. Mysterious Objectives are in play.

gallery_62972_9890_913310.jpg

In addition to Guide, the Farseer rolls Eldritch Storm, Fortune and Mind War from the Runes of Fate table. The Warlock Conclave get Enhance/Drain to compliment Conceal/Reveal from the Runes of Battle table.
The DCW’s Warlord Traits were Master of Ambush (Warlord and three units gain Infiltrate) and Divide and Conquer (-1 opponent Reserve Rolls), while the Farseer’s trait was Fate’s Messenger (re-roll saving throws of 1). Death from the Skies content was not in use.
Deploying first, the Blood Angels set up the DCC in line with Obj4 and advance towards it 6” and discovers it (bomb). The DCD starts in the Drop Pod and everything else Infiltrates.
With little to counter, the Eldar player sets up defensively. The Farseer is in the centre of the Eldar deployment zone with the first squad of Windriders (J1) in the innermost ruin of tile F and underneath Obj3 (Scatterfield). The second squad (J2) deploys “south” of this in tile F and the third squad (J3) to the “north” in tile C. The Vypers deploy behind the Farseer and the Crimson Death Formation starts in Reserves.
All Blood Angels Scouts infiltrate as close to J1 as they can and then advance 6” towards the Farseer. The Eversor does the same and remains 6” behind them and near to Obj2 (Skyfire Nexus). The squad of Death Company with the power lance (DCL) deploy on the ruin closest to the enemy in tile B, whilst the squad with the power axe (DCA) deploy on Obj1 (Skyfire Nexus). The DCW and the squad with the power fist (DCF) deploy behind the Imperial Statue and all DC squads use their 6” to get into cover if not already there. Finally, all the Scouts make their Scout move towards the Farseer. There is no night fight and the Blood Angels get the first turn.

Deployment

Mission: Game 2 from the BB11 mission pack - Eternal War: Crusade (four objectives worth three VPs each) and Maelstrom of War: Cleanse and Control

Setup: Vanguard Strike

The board is a Realm of Battle board with six tiles of the order:

ABC

DEF

There are hills on the external corners of tiles A and D. All structures are ruins and follow the BRB rules for them, but the ground floor of a ruin offers no cover save or imposes no movement penalties. Ascending a floor is done via an access point or climbing the edges/through a window, descending is done via an access point of by jumping. Tiles A has a ruin in its bottom right corner near the board to Tile B, D, and E. There is a barricade running down from the hill in the opposite corner. Tile B has a ruin in its centre but near Tile E and one on the boarder between itself and Tile C – which itself has a ruin towards the rightmost side. Tile D has a ruin slightly off-centre, Tile E has w central ruin and wall, whilst Tile F has a fairly central ruin too.

The four Eternal War objectives are placed as follows: by the leftmost wall in Tile A, at the base of Tile B's central ruin, by Tile C's shared ruin and by the wall in Tile E. The six Maelstrom objectives are placed accordingly: #1 by Tile D's ruin, #2 on the boarder of tile C and F by C's ruin, #3 on the hill in tile D, #4 in the centre of Tile A, #5 in the centre of Tile F and #6 is in the centre of Tile B. Mysterious Objectives are not in play.

The Chaplain’s Warlord Traits were Conqueror of Cites (Move Through Cover: Ruins and Stealth: Ruins) and Divide and Conquer (-1 opponent Reserve Rolls), while the Baron’s trait was Master of the Joust (re-roll failed To Hit rolls when charging). Death from the Skies content was not in use.

Deploying first, the Blood Angels set up the Plaserback and Assback in Tile E, and the Sicaran and Scorpius in Tile F. All are in cover. The Stormraven, with the Chaplain and a Scout Squad (S2) start in Reserve .

The Imperial Knights deploy in a line along their table edge in tiles A and B in the order Paladin 2 → Errant → Crusader (Baron) → Paladin 1

The other Scour Squad (S1) infiltrates into the middle of Tile D behind the ruin. The Cullexus infiltrates on the opposite side, just encroaching into Tile F from C. The Scouts then redeploy out of line of sight. There is no night fight and the Blood Angels get the first turn.

Turn One

Blood Angels

~ Tactical Objectives (TO) BA15, 26 (Secure Objective 6) and 56 are drawn

~ The Skyhammer arrives. The five man RAS with the flamers (RASf) drops onto Obj2 whilst the other two five man RAS squads land in exactly the same spot on Obj6 resulting in the first being telefragged... The black Drop Pod carrying the five man Devastator squad with three grav cannons (D1) arrives in the corner and they squad move up behind the wall. The red Drop Pod lands on Obj4 and disgorges its contents of one five man Devastator squad with multi-meltas (D2) and one with grav cannons (D3) towards the nearest Knight. Tanks remain in cover and the Knight's Interceptor fire does nothing

~ D3 takes 3HP off the nearest Paladin, only for D2 to subsequently explode it catastrophically. The Paladin falls on the Errant inflicting greater than the 6HPs required. The Errant explodes and falls off the board. D1 and the Scorpius take 2HP off the Baron
