World Eaters – 2 (T&H, TSNP)
Eldar – 1 (BTS)

After Game Thoughts

- The Eldar would not have received the BTS as there was a mix up in the army. However it was too late in the game before this was realized so it was decided that the Terminators1 were the BTS

- The Eldar should not have allowed the TSNP objective and we take it that Russ suffered from a ‘brain-fart’ to allow this to happen.

- If this was taken to further rounds, the World Eaters could have only hoped for a draw. A win would have only been possible if it came down to points or if the Hellblades came to the party. Eldar still had the numbers and manoeuvrability.  

- Terminators were awesome as usual.

- Need to get the Berserkers into more BtB combats ARGH!!

Did the Eldar player forget about the Avatar?  *laugh*   :heart-break:

Thanks for the report, sad the World Eaters had to take a win due to enemy mistakes as opposed to warrior prowess!

He chose not to use him on turn 3 thinking it would go to a 4th turn

Tell me about it!  Hence I included the after battle thoughts. I think both sides could have continued to give each other grief, yet I believe the Eldar had the upper hand.

Warrior's prowess indeed!  Cheeky git!   :)

Um what was the need of a Dragonship?

It allowed him to Planetfall the Vampires. Without it, he had to fly in, making it susceptible to Interception. Given the 4 squads of Hellblades was probably a good idea.

Also, Russ has a fetish for Planetary Bombardments. Never does anything, but then again, does Russ ever?

Ooooh! Burn!
