The fourth, and final, round for this Raven Guard list and the IG. Me with the Raven Guard again and captPiett with a "Titan Traction" IG list. I setup the terrain again (thanks Bethlehem Resin for the trees and roads!) and Matt choose the sides. He garrisoned the two Sentinel formations, the Storm Troopers and an Infantry company with the latter two on overwatch.

The Marines took this one with Take and Hold, Defend the Flag and possibly They Shall Not Pass (we didn't bother seeing if the Storm Trooper rallied).

The drop wasn't overly devastating but the position it left me in was a real boon (I re-rolled one or two Land Speeder scatters but that was it). I think you can see how good Land Speeders can be when planetfalling from this BatRep. Each one touched down in a support position, was used as support in at least one assault, and got to advance (not double) on enemy units all in the first turn.
