I won the lieutenant roll and chose to keep deployment, the shasvastii deployed staying in cover with two infiltrators being held back. My opponent then chose to have me go first, stripping two orders from my pool in the process. One model each is not in the pictures as they were on the lower level of the white tiled building. The pictures were taken with the starting positions, or close to it, from each turn.
First the Varangian acted impetuously, moving and throwing a smoke grenade at the base of the stairs. I then activated the fireteam, consisting of the Rokot, Patcher, and Mr. Wolff, that was next to a mine, and had them move then dodge. This allowed Wolfgang to dodge into melee with what turned out to be a speculo killer, who failed their ARO. My camouflaged SAS then acted as part of a coordinated order with the bearpode + controller, and the Varangian having the varangian move towards the sandbags at the base of the stairs, the controller moving on the lower level below the fire team, and the bearpode climbing up the side of the stairs. The SAS moved towards the speculo killer with the coordinated order, then activated again to get into melee and made a cc attack, killing it. My kosmosoldat climbed the stairs near the shuttle, and took a shot at the Ikadron cowering behind the barricade, but missed. This triggered an ARO from the Noctifer who was just barely outside 32″. The fireteam moved forward, towards the shipping containers, with the Rokot lieutenant lagging behind. Mr. Wolff moved towards the other camo token, who dodged to move away, then dodged to the other side of the Malignos. The bearpode moved up the stairs some, and that was where my first turn ended.
The first Shasvastii turn had the two taiga creatures move forward, with one dying to the Varangians heavy pistol. The noctifer, seed soldier, ikadron, and something else did a coordinated climb action. This led to Mr. Wolff dodging into the Malignos, and the seed soldier dying to the ARO off of the Kosmosoldat. Whichever model was on the forward right side moved forward and lived through the kosmosoldat shots, but with their second activation, the warcor and kosmosoldat managed to hit and stun / kill the target respectively. The remaining taigha creature moved forward, and was shot by my varangian. The two unknown models are either the caliban or the mentor. Was not sure which was where.
On kosmoflots second turn, the kosmosoldat was able to take out the noctifer, now that they were closer. The SAS and wolfgang ended up chasing the malignos around the generator, with mr. wolff catching and ripping into him on the other side, after the SAS had given up and went to survey a cargo container. Something led to the Ikadron on the right side dodging, which then allowed the kosmosoldat to see it, and take it out with the portable autocannon. At this point, the fireteam moved up and the patcher was able to immobilize the shasvastii that was on the cargo container using the adhesive launcher.
On the shasvastii second turn they went into retreat, but both models failed to make it off the table.
Keep pushing the aliens off our station!
Good job
Succinct battle summary commander, well fought!
Nice job.
Excellent win! Try taking some “eye level” photos during the game and then adding those into the narrative to help bring it alive. Good work!
@Blitchga
Thank you for the advice! This was my first time writing up a report, I will be sure to do that next time
Love to see our boys holding the line!
If you are doing play by play might I suggest some sub headings or point form or even just smaller paragraphs. Might make it easier to follow.
Thanks for doing the report!
Keep up the great work, Ariadna!
