I play all day all night just have a break for work
It must be around 30 hours pure gaming until now.....ah uh and of course it´s faster cause I play against myselfe
Movementphase:
The allied forces attacked the Imperial lines with 250 bikes, jetbikes and trikes(stands)
2 COis Squatbikes try to reach the smaller bridge
another 2+ 2 det. try to secure the bigger one followed by Pretoreans and some Inf.
Tau moving in
Kroot forces attack the 1st defense line
Jetbikes swarm out to attack everything they can reach
Wave serpents(just had 3 models painted but own 14 units
) have sent their shockwaves to weak the imperial lines
Phantom Titans giving fire support
Eldar Warhost support the jetbike attack
Fieldmarshall Ulric the lazy one
back to the Tau line bloody CC in the damaged skyscraper between Kroot hunters and Ratling snipers
Jetbikes try to avoid CC aginst SH tanks
Tau hammerheads and Swordfishes giving firesupport
big Squat stuff follows the Trike and bike attack
I placed them in the 1st Turn because they are so slow and can gice the bikes heavy firesupport instead of tanks and inf. which would charge/advance too.
brutal fighting around the big bridge
Artillery emplacement
Next day first fire
Imperial artillery and SH tanks cause many casualities under the Eldar´s ranks
in return several of these weapon platforms got destroyed by Exarch and las cannon fire
Vortex missiles did not manage to destroy the Phantom
but another one got destroyed by Warlord and artillery fire
Viper bikes advance behind the smaller ones to pick up remaining imperial Inf.
The Tau forces smashed aside the few defenders and closed up to the Squats attack on the bridge
while destroying everthing within range
The Squat Pretoreans dealt out heavy blows with imperial SH tanks(mostly Stormblades)
several Tanks got destroyed but one Cyclops too while another one suffered heavy damage
After CC /advance)
The Squat bikes suffered horrible casualities during CC they lost 2/3rds of thier fights against Sentinels, Rugh riders and Tactical Inf.
Of course the IG troops suffered also casulatities but much less than expected
A bridge too far?
The IG lines seem stbile will the allied force find a gap?
The Squats suffered most in Turn 1
While the Tau only had a few losses
and securde all their goals for Turn 1
Eldar and Ig troops fight like angry cats
more a tie here
Points Turn 1:
IG: 83(Eldar 35 Squats 43 Tau 5)
Allied forces: 50
enjoy!
