Marvel miniatures BatRep

By
Sam here with a marvel miniatures photo batrep.
This is my first post of this kind so please let me know how you find it. There will be a lot more like it so I hope you enjoy!
This is my 4th Game and Cats second so please leave comments if you notice us do anything out of the ordinary or any advice on what we could do differently.

The board
The game will be played on a 3-3 shipyard board with terrain from TTCombat on the dining room table for now. I need to get hold of a 3-3 mat so that Marvel games are easier in the future.
 
The teams
Xmen vs Xmen. 
Girls (and pool) vs boys (minus wolverine)

Cat's crew consists of 
Jean Grey, Emma Frost, Rogue and Deadpool

 
My crew consists of
Magneto, Cyclops, Collosus and Gambit
 
The mission
We are playing the mission that can be found in the XMen starter set. One team in the centre and another around the outside. The table left plenty of room for deployment.

Deployment
I started in the middle and Cat with a much more mobile force deployed around the outside like this.
 
 
First turn
 
Magneto first
Uses two tokens to move onto a container and then uses blunt instrument to throw a container againdt Rogue and Emma.
Getting a succsessful hit and a Crit, deals 4 damage to Rogue and 3 to Emma due to her failing her agility roll. A good start!
 
Rogue gets up
Decides to hoof emma frost while she is down. Dealing four damage due to the crit to Emma.

Due to pictures closing my app I have had to restrict them.

Cyclops shoots deadpool with focussed beam doing 3 Damage with a crit.

Deadpool uses bang bang twice to take 3 damage off of cyclop.

Gambit uses 52 card pick up to hit deadpool for 3 more damage

Jean grey uses telekenesis to throw a container at collosus for 4 damage

And then uses meat grinder which does 3 damage to emma frost, leaving her at one damage left.

 
Emma gets up, moves towards magneto and decides to throw her him at collosus. But fails to pick him up.
Collosus moves to emma and punches her with osmium punch. Boosting for the extra dice and doing 2 damage killing her.
 
 Jean grey next flies into the frey and uses telekenesis to throw the green container at cyclops. Doing 3 damage to him and one to collosus.
 
Rubbing salt in the wound she then does psycotic illusions againdt cyclops. Dealing a further two damage. Leaving him with four.

Jericho Reach: First Encounters

By
The galaxy was surrounded by the Hive Fleet however those whom arrived by space travel found that the Fleet parted to allow slender corridors for travel into the Jericho galaxy. However the Tyranids did not so much as stir or attack the space craft.  Each army sent their favoured heroes and their chosen acolytes. On the mining planet of Rheelas the Howling Griffons led by Chaplain Titus within his great Dreadnought armour were the first to engage in battle with the Necrons led by Overlord Naile. However both commanders understood it would do no good to exterminate each other. They both strategically retreated to fight another day. If Khorne was watching he would be greatly angered by the lack of bloodshed. Overlord Naile was able to claim the relic weapon known as Void Reaper and within the mining facility found a Tomb World filled by his Laharl Dynasty brothers.  The Howling Griffons were then ambushed by the Thousand Sons led by the Daemon Prince known in Low Gothi...

Worcester Wargames 40K Doubles .

By
It's that time of year again! The Six Up Save lads are painting last mintue details and packing our carry cases in preparation for another one of Worcester Wargames awesome local Tournaments . This years contest comes with a twist; the doubles teams will be paired up at random! From what we are given to understand Andy (the TO) is pairing people up with respective armies (Imperium with Imperium, Orks with Orks etc) but we wont know exactly who our teammates are until the morning of the Tourney. The day will consist of 3 games, one person on each team will be playing Maelstrom objectives and his teammate will be playing for standard objectives on the same board, so it will be an interesting mix up of normal game rules. I'm taking my Redeemer's, but due to lack of time / laziness I'm just taking the exact same list as my Six Up Save League. It's hardley optimised for competitive gameplay, but its fun, fluffy and means I don't have to stress about painting any...

Tarsis 4, hosted by Geno52 and Incom Gaming

Today Sam went to Cheltenham to join in with 19 other people on a narrative 30k campaign day. This post will review the day, show off some of the armies that attended and detail how each game went for The Iron Warriors.  First of all I wish to say what a fantastic day that I had. I drove down with Ben Fletcher who was using his warp cult and allied knights and was prepared for a few games of heresy. What I got was three amazing games with friendly and fun opponents. To top this off there was a fluffy element to the whole event running throughout. With people bringing lists which showed off their legions strengths and not following the standard net list builds that you sometimes see in a 40k event. The event was well thought out and well ran by Tom and Stu. Loyalists vs traitors and a winning team, not individual. Which brought about a sense of comradery. Here is the list that I took. I made a 2000 and 2500 point list and used the latter twice and the former once.   Game one Fo...
