Set up was as per the scenario, Mad Doc riding with the Ard boys. The DE set up on the very far edge of the even quarter, and He failed to seize the initiative.
Turn 1
Both ork trucks move 13” the drive by boys cut through terrain, and the big shootas on the trucks missed. There was no combat.
Bottom of 1
1 ravager moves far right, the other just scoots over, the wyches move behind the ravager for cover.
Shooting:
One ravager shoots the truck, the disintegrators failed to pen, but the dark lance got the pen, rolled a 6 for damage, and then a 6 for the ramshackle causing the truck to go krunch, and the Ard Boys stepped out. The witches ran 5” and the other ravager shoots and kills 5 Ard Boys.
Turn 2
The Ard Boys move towards the DE line. The Drive By boys drive towards the objective.
Shooting
The truck big shoota misses, the Ard Boys run 2”
There is no combat.
Bottom of 2
The wyches move towards the objective, and the ravagers spread out more.
Shooting
The 1st ravager shoots and pens the Drive By boys truck, gets a pen and a krunch for ramshackle and the Drive By boys step out. The othe ravager shoots the Ard Boys and kills 2. The wyches run 6.
Turn 3
The Ard Boys continue to march forward to the DE line, the Drive By boys move 3” into difficult terrain by the objective.
Shooting
The Drive By boys open up on the wyches squad, the big shoota again missed, but the rest of the shoota boys caused 3 wounds and two wyches make their feel no pain roll, but the Hami took a wound. The big shoota of the Ard boys hit but failed to penetrate a ravager.
There was no combat.
Bottom of 3
1 ravager moves toward the Drive By boys and the other moves toward the Ard Boys. The wyches change direction and head towards the Ard boys.
Shooting
The two ravagers shoot up the Ard Boys killing them all but Mad Doc who took a wound. The wyches run 1” and so fail their charge on Mad Doc.
There was no combat.
Turn 4
Mad Doc moves towards the wyches, the Drive By boys move in to the cover by the objective.
Shooting.
The drive by boys shoot at wyches, as a side note the big shoota missed again. Causing 5 wounds but with FNP only two of them die. Mad Doc shoots and kills 1 wyche.
Mad Doc assaults the wyches who go first (of course) and cause 1 wound. Mad Doc swings back killing 3 (seems them wyches have a 4+ invuln save) they pass their LD.
Bottom of 4
Both ravagers move towards the Drive By boys. The Hami also moves towards them.
Shooting
The Hami shoots his dark gate hitting 10 and wounding 8 and the orks make all their cover saves.
Both ravagers shoot at the Drive By boys killing 5. They fail their Ld, the boss pole swings but they fail a second time and run away 12”
In combat the wyches finally down Mad Doc and take him prisoner, then consolidate 5 towards the objective.
Turn 5
The Drive By boys rally and have to run, rolling a 6 to get back close to the objective.
Bottom of 5
The wyches and Hami move towards the objective. The ravagers move to get LOS to the Drive By boys.
Shooting
Both ravagers open up and kill off 4 more orks, rather than take a S8 wound on the nob I assigned it to a boy and unfortunately he was the one that had the range to the objective marker, so now the nearest boy was 4” away. The Wyches ran 5 and got right next to the objective.
Since had had the most models by the objective and 1 prisoner, and there was no way two orks were going to survive the attacks from 9 wyches I called the game.
Victory to the DE.
A great game, if only my big shootas could have hit the ravagers and downed at least one it would have been a much closer game. As it was, Hapexamnder was a great sport and very patient while I took notes and pictures. Next week at 750 I am going to take something special for him. Those ravagers will not ravage again. Bwahahahahah…. Snort!
