It seemed to be a ninja list, with a lot of Lictors, Raveners, Genestealers, Mawlocs, and whatnot, led by a Malanthrope. God, was that thing annoying. I decided to field almost everything, since there didn't seem to be much held in reserve. I did, however, keep my commander and a 2 man XV-8 squad in reserve. Again, I get first turn. However, she calls out my Commander for Deathleaper's LD bullshit.
Game starts, and there is a fair bit on the field. My hammerhead starts shotgunning hordes of genestealers, and my tetras feed the markerlight addiction of my XV-9s. Broadsides get a few wounds on the Malanthrope, but its 3++ save helped it. She pops some of my transports, and I figure those guys are done. Most of the army is now close enough to reach out and touch.
Next turn I drop in my other XV-8 squad and my commander in back. the 2 XV-8s try to shoot the Malanthrope but fail to do anything. Commander scores a third wound on the Malanthrope. Again, more shotgunning, and I pop some more genestealers. Broadsides decide to nuke a nearby squad of warriors. Suddenly, there are guys everywhere. Lictors and Raveners in a board where there was a fair bit of cover. The lictors wipe my exposed fire warriors, and the raveners start the trek to my battlesuits. A Mawloc pops up to try and eat my XV-9s, and I lose one. She also moves Deathleaper out of cover after my commander (laughing mahmoud.jpg).
While the raveners are still going toward the broadsides, I let loose with the broadsides and XV-9s and rend the first Mawloc to death. I send my hammerhead against the raveners, but fail to do much because of cover. I send my commander after Deathleaper. Two plasma shots, two wounds. These people don't know me, else they'd know I do some crazy shit sometimes. I charge Deathleaper with my commander.
