I wanted to give my XI. Imperial tank Regiment a try well parts of it´s 1st and 2nd battalions It should be supported by parts of my Imperial airwing Since we(me&me) played a attack/defense scenario the Tau side gains 8K (2/3rds of attacker´s points) Tau army 8200 points    Ig army 12300 points    Battlefield 2.50m x 1.5m

Setup         Turn 1 The target for the IG troops was to secure the city or most of it. The whole army charged or advanced except for the artillery company entrenched on the hill    Some battlesuits moved into cover while trying to pick up some targets but most of them were out of range. The Ig Aricav supported by 2 ogry det. charged fire warriors and battlesuits   2 units of Lightnings charged 4 Skyrays to take them out the skyrays snaped on them with their missiles and managed to shoot down 1 of each formation    The Tau fire was brutal. hammerheads , battlesuits and Tau SH tanks shoot many of the Ig tanks into pieces sveral stands were killd by the fire warriors defense fire but the CC went well for the Imperium except one lightning fighter lost it´s CC against a skyray  The aircav Co suffer heavy casualties and broke followed by the 2nd Bat. Inf. CO. forcing the whole Co to fall back  Several Battelsuitse get killed in CC. But the battle went well for the Tau until now 2 of 3 Inf Co. were broken the Ig´s tanks suffered nearly 50% losses Then some of the remaining IG flyers concentrate their fire on the mighty Manta which has lost 3 of it´s 4 shields during FF With deadly precision serveral shoots hit the bridge one shoot opend the bridge´s armour and killed all of the crew pilotless the mighty machiene crashed to the ground   The IG artillery sufferd some casualties from Tau gunships and killed 2 in return     The warhound try to bring it´s inferno gun into range

No pics from Turn 2 but the Ig pushed forward to crush the Tau´s right flank which collapsed totally On the Tau left flank the heavily dug in battlesuits and tanks destroyed 7 of 10 IG SH tanks in return the IG ariforce charged more Skyrays and 2 Baracudas which got all killed Turn 3 The Ipmerium starts to secure left flank and middle   Maraudeur destroyers giving haevy fire support   Imperial artillery pounding dug in Tau units  Last defense line do you see the pathfinder sniper?   Aquillas closing in  Last squadron of lightnings very good fighters excellent for Air superiority or DEAD missions    Conclusion: it was a very close victory for the IG and a lot of fun |

Nicely painted army. Good camo, I couldn't tell what much of it was in the 1st pictures it blended in so well. I'm useless at camo, I usually just go for plain adeptus battle grey or similar. Also, were there a lot of non GW tanks in there? I didn't recognise some of them. |

Very impressive, great to see all that armour. Have you considered flocking your artillery emplacement hill? would make it blend in more. |
