SEIZE!
Tsons Turn 1:
So, the Chaos Gods smile upon me with a seize but decline my preferred wave. Fair trade.
2 units of Bloodletters coming in...
With favorable scatters and Runs, both units of Bloodletters land in his threat zone and my Warlord turboboosts behind his lines.
All 3 units of Tsons move up and fire what they can...killing a few marines.
I capture 2 obj and move to take another 2 obj...so far so good.
Blood Angels Turn 1:
He shoots some Bloodletters before the charges.
He sends 1 unit of Jumpers into each Bloodletter unit.
Astorath's unit wipes his charge (I was hoping 1 Bloodletter would stick) taking 1 obj.
The other charge does stick with 1 Bloodletter.
Tsons Turn 2:
Bloodthirster comes in center, ready to challenge his Reserves.
DP Khorne comes in right flank.
I move Tsons around to get range and take obj, now control 3 obj to his 1 obj.
I whittle the Tac squad to assist the Warlord.
Khorne Warlord charges the remaining Tac squad and wipes them.
The last Bloodletters kills one Jumper and dies.
Blood Angels Turn 2:
His Term/Reclusiarch/Priest unit comes in center.
His Stormraven flies on center and puts a few wounds on Bloodthirster.
No pic.
He moves his Jumper units around and wounds my Warlord.
He kills some Tsons.
Astorath's unit charges the Warlord. Astorath dies in Challenge and then combat sticks.
Tsons turn 3:
Bloodthirster moves near center and Stormraven.
I move the Tsons around.
I move the Khorne DP up to charge the Jumpers.
Tsons shoot and kill some Jumpers.
Tsons shoot but don't wound Terms then charge hoping to stick.
Warlord wipes the remaining Jumpers from Astorath's unit.
Khorne DP wipes the other Jumpers.
Blood Angels turn 3:
So with an empty Stormraven and a Term unit engaged, his turn is quick.
He fires at the Bloodthirster but does nothing.
Tsons survive another round of combat. I love Tzeentch!
No pic.
Tsons turn 4:
Warlord moves to center.
Khorne DP moves to center.
Bloodthirster charges the Term unit, combined with the Tsons wipes the unit.
Game ends with me controlling 2 obj and his lone Stormraven in the center of the board.
He gets First Blood.
I get Slay Warlord and Linbreaker.
WIN 5 to 1
Good start to day. Not as many points as I would like but the tourney is Win/Loss and then points.
Nice report Edge!
