Turn 1 - continued
Strategy roll: Orks ?*DANGIT!*
The Kult of Speed revs up and engages the Venetors, some of the crazed Ork bikers even braving the woods to come to grips with the enemy.
The Orks lose 2 Warbikes and a Buggy, while the Venetors, with heaps of Ork support fire pouring down on them, are wiped out.
The Stompamob *advances* (Dang inexperienced Ork players? that's not how it's done!), blasting into Monolith 2, which is completely destroyed, and Monolith 4, which breaks.
Phalanx 2 emerges from broken Monolith 4 to engage the Kult of Speed? they lose a single Necron Warrior and trash 3 Bikes and 1 Warbuggy. ?Support fire and resolution destroys the 2 Skorchas, 1 Buggy, and 2 Bikes. ?(While reviewing the notes and pictures to do the batrep, I just realized my opponent was actually using a "Big" Kult of Speed, not a "Normal" one? HMMMM!) The victorious Necrons vanish using Monolith 6's Portal to arrive at the Tomb Complex.
The Warbarque ponderously advances and pops up to fire on Blitz Brigade 2, taking out 1 Flakwagon and 1 Gunwagon.
Blitz Brigade 1 *advances* and fires on Monolith 1 with all its might and catching the Warbarque as well! ?The Monolith formation withers away under the massed fire (Man, that painted Monolith 1 is unlucky!) and the Warbarque suffers 1DC damage? and has its Portal shut down!
Blitz Brgade 1 *advances* and fires on the Warbarque, doing another 1DC damage.
Phalanx 1 steps from the Portal in Monolith 2 and engages the intermingled Blitz Brigade 2 and the Stompamob.
The Necron suffer the loss of 1 Immortal (Yeah right!), 1 Warrior, and 1 Pariah (Man those guys are unlucky), but they wipe out the Blitz Brigade and 4 Stompas with a little help from their friends?
"I kan take it!" shouts one of the Stormboyz. (My opponent was momentarily unsure what to do, got out the 30cm ruler, check something, and laughed.) ?The Stormboyz enegage Pylon 2, with a single Stormboy narrowly reaching base contact? and the rest of his mates staying 15.1cm back! ?
All the whacking and banging doesn't produce any obvious results, but the Pylon is shut down via combat resolution? and quiet sobbing can be heard emanating from within?
The Gunzmob drops overwatch and doubles to fire on Pylon 1, doing 1DC as well as breaking the Necron monstrosity.
Monolith 6 doubles after the damaged Stompamob and drops another Stompa.
Phalanx 3 then engages out of Monolith 6 and hits the Stompas hard! ?They lose 2 Warriors, but with the help of *eight* support hits, only the Supa-Stompa, with 2DC left remains for the Orks.
Ready to be obliterated, the Fighta-bommerz dive in? and aren't fired on! ?They bank around to hit the Warbarque? and it crash to the ground, crackling with green lighting which quickly fades to black? (So much for my Strategy Rating 3!)
Monolith 7 doubles towards Blitz Brigade 1 and takes out a Flakwagon.
Phalanx 4 then engages Blitz Brigade 1 and wipes it out without suffering a scratch!
The Warboss yells, "YES, I TOLD YA TA *ADVANCE*", so the Warband does, hammering Phalanx 4 and dropping 3 Warriors, plus the Necron Lord's unit, breaking them!
Monolith 3 advances on the Supa-Stompa and does another 1DC damage?
End of Turn:
The Kult of Speed fails to rally, as does Pylon 1 and Monolith 4 in reserves.
