hey guys,

the setup for the battle on sunday changed a bit. we were planning on doing orks vs gk. but then two of our pals wanted to join. so we ended up playing orks+chaos vs gk+imperial guard. turned out to be a really funny game. since the guard player is still pretty new to 40k we decided to do a simple deathmatch. last man standing wins. and quite a lot of my team was standing when we killed the last terminator
i thought i would be having trouble with tanks but it turned out it wasn't too bad after all. both my meganobs and my tankbustaz got into cc with some tanks and did a great job. my pal's havocs with 4 lascas didn't help at all on the other hand (terrible dice rolling).
i guess it would have been worse if my opponent had known what they were doing. they were shooting the wrong targets and their shooting options weren't actually the best against orks. oh well we had a blast although i had only slept three hours due to a drinking and gaming marathon the night before XD

in order to get my fellow guard player into the game a bit better we decided that our next battle would be 3000p of guard+guard vs tau+gk. i'll be playing my guard with the newbie. can't wait for that game!
my list so far is(rough sketch):
1500p:
command squad+master of o+astropath
2 squads of vets with plasmas and lasca weapon team each
vendetta
devil dog
sentinel with plasma
2 manticore
2 lr executioner

lots of templates and ap1 and ap2.should put on quite some hurt

c ya next time
cheers
simon
