| We didn't even get thru turn 3 MVP of the game for team EVIL were Nate's brood of Hormagaunts. They swept thru and dispatched a unit of Fire Wariiors, a Tau Commander, a unit of Broadsides and were about to much some Crisis suits when 6p rolled around. Nate also had his 3 Lictors distract a few units. I think of all his Lictor and Stealer Rending opportunities he came up with just a single 6 His Warriors anf Broodlord retinue were hosed from incoming fire and the Carnifex wandered about doing nothing. They're sooo slow. Chaos managed to wipe out a Stealth Suit team from Chosen firepower. Able to Rapid Fire some Sniper Scouts and bag a Monat suit wondering a little too close. The best for me was my Rhino CombiBolter picking off an Assault Marine. Damn near paid for itself with one lucky shot. Lost 4 Plasma Gunners to overheats. My only losses. The Necron horde lost the big daddy to a lucky glancing Lascannon, but it did its job by porting thru some constructs and spouting Gauss everywhere. The Lord managed to get into it with a Sniper Drone team and Necron Warriors even had a few kills in hand to hand On Turn 3 we had 2 of the counters. One was surrounded by Genestealers next to some fantastic looking trees. Another jumped all over by a Chaos Rhino squad. The remaining two were being contested from the Super Horms and the fourth being targeted by the freshly teleported Chaos Terminators and Chaos Lord. | |

| I had a fun time hovering around, asking questions, and picking on Marc's kid. As much as I wanted the Emperor's finest to come out on top, as a mostly impartial observer I'd have to say that Team Evil were the victors in the battle.
Back in 3ed days, I played a few games against Necrons (when they first came out) and now I remember how much they scare me with that damned ability to stand back up. It seemed like almost no headway was made against them at all.
What strategies exist to whoop Necrons? Do you just have to hit them over and over again until they quit doing that? Do you hit them with certain weapons that smear them into nothing? Give me some Dark Angels answers for Necrons. They must die (and stay dead.)
Marc and I traded my Macragge 'nids for his Macragge Marines, so that's another tac squad I can add to my force. He also very generously gave me four sets of assault marine arms from his bountiful bits box, so I'll be able to get those guys jumping into battle soon.
As soon as I get 1000 points painted, I'll take a break from painting and put together a table, so maybe in the near future I can have some folks over to my house.

| Hey, we could have pulled through, given enough time, lots of luck *cough and a complete third turn*cough. But yeah, the hormogaunts were super-nids and definantly MVP of the entire evil side. Watching Marc roll lots of ones and twos for plasma was really funny. What's better, none of my plasma died. 'Crons are hard to beat when it's just them, a lord, and a monolith (which I give my Predator great thanks for killing). Matt, Ryan, we missed your close combat ability, as the oooonly thing on our side that was able to do much was an assault squad (which got tied up too quickly because of bad decisions) and shield drones from Bruce. My thoughts anyways. | |

| Not fear, just hard to kill a 1,000 pt force that has a bunch of warriors, lord w/ res. orb, and monolith. | |

| yea the game was pretty fun, i think they all are remembering the first turn when 16 warriors got knocked down but only 3 left table. if nathan hadnt dropped my monolith, i would have got through almost untouched.
those gaunts assaulting on the first turn before they even shot was wonderful, and then they just let loose a rampage on the tau.
i didnt even notice marc over heated all that plasma... i remember two guys dying | |

| yea Sadly my tau did nothing to except when my broadsides killed a lictor somehow but the weakest unit I couldnt beat that was sad. The funny part was when my sniper drone hit and(if I remeber right) wounded the nec lord by competle luck | |

| Better than that, your shield drones did more than just about any other unit (barring the broadsides that beat up the lictor with their big guns) | |
