Apologies in advance for the picture quality, they aren't up to the usual standard. Turn 1 Squats deploy their Expeditionary detachment who infiltrate the battlefield, gaining a charge move before the action begins. They then win initiative and opt to allow the Chaos player to be the first to activate in the turn. Attachments: File comment: Before the battle begins, the Expeditionary detachment deploys close by to the stranded APC objective. 2013-09-28 12.52.36.jpg [ 1.11 MiB | Viewed 8908 times ] File comment: Bloodletters deploy opposite the Expeditionary detachment, capturing the Ammo Dump objective. 2013-09-28 12.55.06.jpg [ 1.05 MiB | Viewed 8908 times ] File comment: The Ironbreaker Company's Berserkers deploy, looking to capture a statue objective. 2013-09-28 13.00.12.jpg [ 832.34 KiB | Viewed 8908 times ] File comment: But Khorne have other ideas! Rhinos carrying their Berzerkers move into a threatening position - but the infantry cannot leave their transports until the next activation, meaning they are horribly vulnerable! 2013-09-28 13.01.42.jpg [ 980.81 KiB | Viewed 8908 times ]

Continued... Attachments: File comment: Iron Eagles advance on to the board and fire three volleys at each of the Rhinos. Incredibly, only one shot hits, and this deflects off of the Rhino's armour. Big let off for Chaos! 2013-09-28 13.03.54.jpg [ 969.26 KiB | Viewed 8908 times ] File comment: The Iron Eagles then complete their move by flying in behind cover. 2013-09-28 13.05.18.jpg [ 1.04 MiB | Viewed 8908 times ] File comment: Bezerkers are blessed by a Chaos Reward which allows them to move three times their move rate. They pounce upon the Squat Beserkers and look to be in good shape to steal the objective. 2013-09-28 13.07.01.jpg [ 1.1 MiB | Viewed 8908 times ] File comment: Squat Thunderers charge on to the board, taking up position in a building with a good vantage point across the battlefield. 2013-09-28 13.08.29.jpg [ 1 MiB | Viewed 8908 times ]

Continued... Note: There was an error here (4th picture). In a moment of madness I deployed a Leviathan on the right flank along with a Beserker unit. The Beserkers are just out of shot, hidden behind a hill, placed there to provide protection for two of the Goliath Mega-Cannon. Of course, the Beserkers come with the Land Train, so I later placed that model down. This is the reason that you will see the Leviathan described as a Land Train (because to all intents and purposes it is). Attachments: File comment: The final Goliath Mega-Cannon is deployed and has its sights set on the Cannon of Khorne way off in the distance... 2013-09-28 13.48.56.jpg [ 845.72 KiB | Viewed 8895 times ] File comment: ...and they pay the price for sitting so closely together!

(without Michael or Ridgely) 2013-09-28 13.54.27.jpg [ 842.75 KiB | Viewed 8895 times ] File comment: Also in the centre of the board a squadron of Cauldrons of Blood charge into cover behind a building. 2013-09-28 13.56.09.jpg [ 1.01 MiB | Viewed 8895 times ] File comment: The Squats' Land Train enters the fray on the right flank, dropping off some Beserkers to provide protection for the Goliath Mega-Cannon. The Land Train has only one target - a Juggernaught hidden behind the ammo dump. Even with a little cover, there is no escape for the Jugger and it is quickly eliminated. 2013-09-28 14.01.03.jpg [ 1.1 MiB | Viewed 8895 times ]
