Another playtest of the RG, this time with Matt taking a ground-pounding RG list that he wanted to try out and me with the IG. I apologize for the picture quality, we setup in the shopping area of the store where the light wasn't as good I needed to use a flash. There also were a couple of instances where I forgot to take a picture.

I setup the terrain and Matt choose the side. The terrain really made this battle interesting. Lots of places to hide and very few decent fire lanes. I garrisoned my two infantry companies in the woods and had two TBolts off board. Matt garrisoned nothing, and had a group of Teleporting Terminators off board.
