I fielded my fledgling Death Guard army against my friend with his Orks today.  This was my first time playing Chaos in Epic and unfortunately the army is a WIP and not fully painted.

2500 points per side.  Death Guard consisted of Mortarion, Plague Tower, 1 unit of Contagions, 1 unit of Land Raiders, 1 unit of Trolls, 1 unit of Minotaurs, Warlord titan (with energy whip, trident, weapon head, weapon tail, Havoc missiles).  

Orks consisted of Snakebite Clan, Speed Freaks Clan, Mekboy Bubba Chukka, Shokk Attack Gunz, Mekboy Gargant, Great Gargant.


The spearhead of the Death Guard!

Orks charge forward and the Warlord releases the dread havoc missiles in one great volley!

A closer look; only 3 Cult of Speed vehicles survived!


Minions of Nurgle move to the ancient artifact at the center of the battlefield:

View from the opposing side as the Minotaurs disgorge from the Plague Tower.


Orks rush in to engage the Minotaurs and Mortarion himself!


This proved to be very bad for the orks as they were completely annihilated between the savage Minotaurs and the Plague Wind of Mortarion.

Massive firepower directed at the tower and primarch resulted in no chaos cards left in hand, which led to a destroyed Plague Tower and dead Mortarion (NO!!!).

The Warlord also engaged the Mekboy Gargant in assault and managed to roll a 3 for close assault!  The result was having his head torn off by the Mekboy!  Inconceivable!  A further view shows the battlefield becoming quite sparse on both sides.

Not much left at the end.  The untimely defeat of the Warlord gave the Orks the minimum score needed to score the win.  I was robbed!

What game system was this? Looks suspiciously like 2nd Edition Epic or NetEpic.  Anyway thanks for the battle report looks like a superb game, very unlucky on the loss, but those Orks never know when to die.

Very close game indeed, nearly every card was broken on both sides.  We play 2nd edition SM/Titan Legions rules.

We may get in another game today and maybe this weekend too!  I'd like to field a few new IG pieces I have.  Holiday extravaganza gaming!

It is pretty hard to beat the Orks in small point games with all their free card options.  I have come to fear the Mekboy Gargant too!  Nice 'rep.

(you should try NetEpic if you like SM2/TL rules :D )

I have the NetEpic rules but my fellow gamer is very reluctant to change from his old ways.

I am very willing to try the netepic rules and maybe someday T can be made to see the light. :D

I've introduced him briefly to The Fog of War and Praetorian rules.  He likes them but for a full conversion, you know how T is!
