The Result of the First Playtest Game

Well I thought I was going to be playing against my Dad's IG since he prepared an army list for them. Instead he runs his Imperial Fists. I thought I had a good chance of winning still. First Turn he blew up one of my Guardian squad's Wave Serpent so that squad was going to die from everything. Turn 2 almost all my shooting sucked except for my Night Spinner who made one of my dad's termies die. Turn 3 Asurmen and the Dire Avengers jumped out and shot their Avenger catapults killed some more marines. Turn 4 Asurmen and the Dire Avengers shot their catapults again but with bladestorm which adds one more shot for each person but they can't shoot the following turn. 2 Marines are left by the objective. Turn 5 Asurmen and the Dire Avengers assaulted the 2 marines and won combat because of Asurmen. Lets just say I lost by only 1 objective because my dad killed all my Troops. Probably will get in some more practice games this week with them.

First Play Test Game of My Eldar

So tonight my dad and I are going to be heading to Empire Games later tonight. My dad said I can use my assembled Eldar tonight. I am excited that I can play a game with them. I assembled all the guys and my dad assembled the tanks. Right now they are at 1500pts but I hope to expand them to 2000pts. Eldar have a lot of choices for Elites, HQ,and Heavy Support. I'll probably add some more Dire Avengers or add some Striking Scorpions. So my Eldar is all mechanized so lets hope they can survive my dad's IG army.
