Hey, a moc065 batrep with pics, how's that!
Should I congrats you the draw? No way, it seems to have been a fun game, especially with the 'tone' you wrote the report so to speak, very casual
(and full of typos), I like that.
I won't comment on tactics since you admitted yourself that game wasn't about winning anyway but I can't help to notice that you adopted the Über Council of Doom as a HQ
(shame on fluff!) and that it seems to have worked to and beyond expectations.
Are you playtesting the thing for competitive gaming and is it there to stay?
(I am myself toying with the concept just now, except I won't be using Eldrad: Fluff I say, FLUFF!) Also, the
(cheap) Warwalker squadrons did their 'By the Book' performance admirably, kudos for pulling that one up. On the other hand, shame on the Prisms for their overall poor performance, and like you wrote, I think these would have better been put in reserve along with a Jetbike squad...
Two questions about the Council, first: - Would have it not been safer for the squad to stay in the Serpent? I mean, da Orks were coming at you anyway...
Second: - How some Destructor Warlocks added to the squad would have performed there? Wiping out an entire Doomed mob in a single turn of Happy Roasting must be priceless.
On a finishing note, these Orks looked nice and all and the
Defilers Battle Wagons are interesting. It was also nice to see your
(mostly) marvelously painted army in action.
Do it again!
