Played versus Ryan's half-proxied Raven Guard: Tactical Marines + SC + Hunter 475. R.Guard Assault Scouts + Caestus + Chaplain 450. Terminators + Chaplain 400. Assault Marines + Chaplain 225. Landing Craft 350 (Carrying Terminators and Assault Marines). Sniper Scouts 200. Land Speeders (Multi-Melta) + Tempest 235. Land Speeders (Multi-Melta) + Tempest 235. Warhound 275. Thunderbolts 150. 10 activations 2995 points. Ryan's only just starting his Raven Guard, so the Barracudas were Thunderbolts, the Dreadnoughts were Land Speeders, and the Thunderhawk was a Landing Craft.

End of turn 1. I lost my Landa (And the warband aboard) to a single point of damage > critical hit during turn 1. Doh! Also lost my Stompamob to a clipping Engagement from the Landing Craft, supported by the Cestus formation. The Terminators & Assault Marines were left on the hill and the Landing Craft left the area.

End of turn 3. I almost managed to push the game to a turn 4 by engaging the Warhound with my Commandos in a firefight, but round 1 was a draw and round 2 was won by the Warhound by 1 point. Ryan used his scouting formations to good effect on turn 3 forcing my Gargant to move and try and take BTS rather than contest my own blitz (again that would have pushed the game to turn 4) in an attempt to make the game 2-1. However he still had one unit in the BTS formation alive at the end of the turn. Final result was 2-0 to the Raven Guard.

Overall I found the Raven Guard list very fun to play against, with a noticably different style of play to Codex Marines. Somewhat concerned that it's only worth taking the Cestus upgrade with the scouting assault marine formation (As then they can garrison!). For the Ork list, I've played the EpicUK "Commandos formation" in about 15 games now, and pretty much never have I not wished to have a second formation of Stormboyz instead. If any NetEA lists adopt this formation type I'd recommend starting its basic cost at 125pts, not 150pts. |

On reflection I think Caestusi would also be very good in Terminator formations. They would only have BP2 but a 35cm move 15cm MW4+ and MWFF5+ would be very cool. |

Hmm, I hadn't considered that... mounting Terminators up in two fast transports is actually pretty attractive! |
