NH,

Sounds like a tough, but fun campaign game.

Our group loves to do similar things. I didn't really know if many out there were into campaign games in epic... good to hear that there's others out there doing similar stuff!

Nice to hear some campaign reports (even if it is hidden in another thread!).

A friend and I are playing a campaign at the moment, an Ork Waaggh trying to get to Armgageddon. Its skewed in the orks favour early on as they fight battles to get supplies and technology to make the jumps to Armageddon. However, I've just suffered my first setback wih the orks, being soundly thrashed in a 5K battle vs ultramarines (about the 5th battle of the campaign). The imperial objective is to inflict enough casualties to the ork Waagh that it disperses before reachign Armageddon. I was on about 20K of orks and have now dropped to about 18K.

The rules we are using are on my firends website here:
http://www.jovianstorm.co.nz/wargames/

We are both itchign to get into some really big battles at the moment...

Also back OT, I like the look of the AMTL list so far...( might have to drag out the Lancers

)

When is your game?

I would be interested to see how you got on. I make it only 5 activations in 3,000 points and no infantry/tanks!!
:80:

Does your opponent know he is facing AMTL?

Cheers

James

Just a quick note - anyone playtesting at the minute, can you please submit your details to Battlestats, but also PM or email me the following info, when possible, as I'm doing some stat tracking myself.

If you're not going to submit the report to battlestats, PM me anyway with this info, but tell me you haven't submitted it to BAttlestats and I'll do it meself.

Date of Game
OpForce
Size of Game
AMTL Objectives Achieved
Enemy Objectives Achieved
No. of turns played
Who won on VPs
Winners VP margin

THank you - if you're playing a non-GT game, just let me know who won and what the OpForce was

D,

No tanks? If it were me, one formation of knights and one formation of scouts wouls would be abandoned for some tanks.

Vandaunia,

All titans? Not worried about an activation issue?

Markconz,

ork campaign sounds pretty good. A thrashing at big points games can really hurt... believe, I know too well!

We had a 10K game of black legion assaulting IG and the IG were in a really awkward position in the campaign, we had a very scattered deployment all over the board. The IG made a rush to hole up in one corner then proceeded to blast the _you know what_ out of any black legion that entereed our corner. IG that couldn't make it to the rally point... well, heh... "emporer protects?!"

Both sides suffered heavy losses. However, due to a large impassable mountain and a gigantic forest forcing a lane of fire and passage, IG created a real killing field of fire by the slowed and forced to detour Black Legion.

It was easily the scariest encounter my Steel Legion have encountered!

Well so my Game ... at least

ELDARS
2x Falcons Troops with 2 Firestorm each
1x Storm Serpent
1x Scorpion
Guardian Troop : with Platforms, Farseer, Avatar ?
2x Aspects Troops : 1 Warp Spiders with Exarch / 1 mixed ?Scorpions Dire Avengers with Exarch and Autarch
2x Scouts Troops

first i change my 2 Plasma Blastgun Warhound for a 2 Light Inferno Gun one

a little resume (I'm not really good to make battle report)... and again a lost for the AMTL (a lost for me

)

get a lot of chance this game at the beginning of the game and my opponent few ... but at the end I get not enough activations (my warhound pack and one of my reaver stay broken)

impressions about the AMTL list is pretty good :
great firepower, great polyvalence, and long range weapons.

A warlord with a CLP and 2 Quake Cannon is something wonderfull and I'm seriously think of putting a 3rd one instead of the Barrage Missile ... even I love the look ?my warlord have now.

Light Inferno Cannon is a great weapon it's revealed very efficient in this game (scouts, guardians)

my low activations (5) ?was not so hard to get with ... except when two of my formations don't manage to rally ... the eldars now jump on the objectives ... and :S

if I managed to find new warhounds I wanna try a nearly full WH list with 2 reavers as support ... perhaps one with 2 QC and 1 CLP (and another with 2 tactical 1 support)

I wish too I can try assault titans.

will have an new game against another Eldar player next week ... hope I have learned enough of this game.

Thanks for the report, vaudania - I've got a 3k game this afternoon, which could be against either IG or Eldar. Here's hoping it goes better than my last few games, eh?

I wonder who you use the artillery Warlord (2 quake cannons, 1 barrage missile, landing pad).
When using the barrage missile, do you also use quake cannons in the same turn ?

If using both, you loose Disrupt and macro weapon abilities, and if you don't use quake cannons when you lauch the barrage missile (to use the disrupt ability), you only use half firepower.

So, how using that titan ?

I may not be getting full firepower with it, Flogus, but the Disrupt ability generally gievs me the ability to break or hinder bunched up enemy in the first turn, as a greeting (sus. fire to get Indirect). In later turns, the Qiake Cannon are employed, allowing me to destroy chunks of other units.

Would I be better off without the BML? Probably. In fact, there's a good argument for a Chain/Power Fist or Laser Burner in its place - as the BTS objective, there's a fair chance of i getting assaulted by the enemy.

Looks like another 5k game today, this time against IG - I'm gonna use pretty much the same list I used against the Eldar, but tweaking the weapons ft on the FF Reaver slightly (2 Laser Burners instead of 1 LB & 1 CAP).
