Infantry Companies on the center, with C and E on overwatch.
Reaver is on the road. Shock Troopers are mounted in their Valkyries, on the left side and Rough Riders are on the right side.

Scouts B are on overwatch in some buildings. Whirlwinds are hidden behind a hill. Predators and Scouts A hold the center. And the Warhound is just in front of Shock Troopers. Everything else is in the air.

The detailed game with pictures is on les Figs de Flogus.

Yep. I learnt this lesson with a painful way I won't do this again !

I think the Reaver and Inf.B were intermingled.
Actually, I way only thinking about a shooting action with the Landing Craft. And I hadn't seen any decisive such action.

Another thing to say, Hojyn and me were a bit rusted as we barely played 1 or 2 games in 2009. We both need to relearn all the small nasty tricks

I realise I was wrong with the Supreme Commander.
I didn't noticed that was not like in the others lists, and I put him in a bikes unit. But it changes nothing as I may have put him in one of my Land Raiders.

I would loose by only 2-1 instead of 3-1 (my Land Raiders would have been the BTS objectif instead of the Heavy Tactical).

You don't find that Land Raider Helios is to expensive Hena?

btw nice report to read.

Well, most of my SM armies include armours and airborne elements. The Scions list allows me to combine these both elements.

I have to try the ground Scions army, but that just shows that the armylist can be played differently while keeping its "armour flavor" specificity.
