    Gah, I'm probably out of the running now. Dammit, and I had SOME hopes that the Canoness would be able to get some killin done. If only I'd been able to afford a flamer or two...Maybe ditched the Inferno Pistol from the Canoness, since it doesn't sound like it's done anything useful.

    Woukd flamers be able to wound a 'fex?
    I think the anti 'fex thing was a good idea.

    Dang... that's hysterical. What's the save on a daemonette, just so I know? I had four Veteran Marines left... and they killed eight. So, there were eight attacks for eight hits and eight failed saves. That's insanity... and my one last guy kills the final two. That's the God Emperor looking out for me there.

    I've got to know whether this was just pure dumb luck or if daemonettes have really low saves.

    Hmm... 4+ invulnerable save with re-rolls didn't seem to be enough...

    I have done the next few groups, but don't currently have time to post them. Will do so tomorrow.

    But just 1 point I wanted to address...
    I had four Veteran Marines left... and they killed eight. So, there were eight attacks for eight hits and eight failed saves. That's insanity
    When you killed 8, you were charging. So struck at the same time and had more attacks.
    You did this with a total of 18 attacks. Not 8. And 3 of those were lightning Claws and 3 were Power Weapons. All at S5.
    Just so people don't get the wrong idea and think there was any form of foul play in this...

    Also, Daemonettes have 5+ Invulnerable save

    thanks for the explanation Moo heh. I was wondering wtf was up with that.

    And it's no problems at all. I was just kind of surprised was all. Thanks for the clarification.

    And thanks for the fun

    So I'm confused in the last match did the ravenors win or the Nurgle Lord?

    The second phase of combat saw the remaining raveners eradicated.

    I´m a bit confused about it too. I have same I value, so I should be able to attack him too before being wiped out.

    He's got terminator armor and a manreaper. Thus 2+ save and +D6 hits. The dice were with the Nurgle lord, certainly, but it's well within the realm of possibility.

    You DID attack him.
    It's just failed to do anything. Basically if you fail to cause any rending wounds you will struggle to wound.
    That simply wasn't put in the report, as as there is alot of stuff to write, and it does take a while. So I just must have missed writing it as it wasn't overly important.

    You got a single rend. Which was saved by the 5+ invulernable. The rest that managed to get through... only 2 or 3. As you need 4s to hit and then 5's to wound.
    So it's really not that special.

    Ok, that clears it up. I was just wondering as you didn´t mention about failing to get any rends.

    This kind of competition is where orks really shine. Their racial weaknesses are crap shooting and, when footslogging, being slow to get in the fight. Their strengths are toughness, numbers and CC. What does this competition do? It limits shooting to one round and guarantees, as long as an entry survives the shooting, that they will get into CC. Thus it minimizes the orks weaknesses and maximizes their strengths.

    Plus, the real strength of the orks here is that they are horde entries. You think that Carnifex or Avatar have a lot of wounds and attacks? Well, my 'ard boyz -- one of the smaller horde entries -- have 16 wounds and 31 attacks. 46 on the charge, with I4 if no casualties taken in shooting. Plus choppas. Hurray for choppas. Barring crazy dice shenanigans, an ork squad will win this competition.

    The only entries I'm really worried about are the nurgle lords and the other orks. But my choppas should come in handy against the nurgles and my 'eavy armor should come in handy against the orks. Kinda wish I'd put a PK on my nob, though.

    Edit: Oops, my total attacks are 61. I forgot the extra attack for 2x CCW.

    Wait till you come up on my Plague Marines. Good shooting and you need 6's to wound us...
    Only one of us is going to leave here alive and it ain't gonna be me!

    Indeed, I may lack the PK and a Nob, but I have the ability for 19 str 5 Orks and a power weapon wielding pigdok. Which I suppose is deadly.

    Well I may have the classical ork entry (if thats not somekinda of oxymoron) but don't underesitmate my hidden PK nob and all thoughs choppas. Also I have high hopes for those burnas being so flexible in use.

    But the orks will hate my purgaters. One incinerater is enough to annoy orks, 3 is really cool.

    I don't think anyone is giving the Plague Marines the respect they deserve. But you will learn the error of your ways.

    What I really want is my squad to fight the Nurgle prince.

    So far, I'm pleased with my Death Company's performance. Dying an honourable death in combat is far preferable to the madness of the Red Thirst.

    You and me next, BrianGeneral! That'll be the first matchup between a horde entry and a super-tough nurglenut.

    Dooks: Heh. Actually I'm not confident to beat your guys, but Str6 Manreaper attacks on charge can be nasty to your 7 men.

    Beast: Probably I have a better chance to kill enough of your guys, but may got torn in the process......Pity that I didn't take Wind of Chaos.

    Yes! I get to eat something, *kills Canoness and retinue*. Must eat. So tasty, so delicious, *hears* Noise Marines on their way. *hungry* again, so hungry. Must kill, the hunger, it burns, so hungry! The sound-it moves, it must be food. *So Hungry*

    Slobbers green ichor and roars a challenge at the sky (which I imagine the Noise Marines investigate, as they want a sound sample of the beast as well as it's head if they win)

    Yeah I won a match
    ********
    My beast-Monster is to stupid to say the hive mind shall consume all, instead it says "Rawwrrr!, Rawwrt! rarr, RRRawr!"
    But it agree's with that philosophy in principle. (If it had any principles.)

    Was just thinking, wouldn't it be great to watch a Carnifex killing things on some nature show? A zoo with one would be quite a trip also.
    Even Chaos Space Marines think Kittens are Cute. There are limits to how evil you can be...
