Some minor posturing I forgot to get.
Rally Gargant Explodes as Fire consumes it.
Ork win 2 - 1 DTF, TSNP, Vraks BTS.
Minor issue with my list I was 25 over, damn you army builder.
Still early days as Sethanon has nothing as yet to give until he has some more games.
For me:
1. Garrisoning Tank Coy is a very strong unit, it dealt out some serious damage when required. It may be worth more than its current points, however some peer fights are required to validate the thought.
2. Valdors are potent and may require a points bump.
3. Minotaur is very very handy and again may require review but more games required before that is decided.
4. Alpha Legion are a magnet for fire and generally have done nothing in the game. May need to explore better options to make them part of the army. Removing them just make it L&D without the Daemons.
Looking forward to seeing some other games up in here soon, expect my next reimport in a fortnight as we switch to HH next week.
Cheers
