VS
After six months of trying to steal Josh away from square basing he finally he broke down and picked up a beautiful Tyranid army. The goods arrived on Friday and today we put his new models to the test against my attempt at a crazy Dark Saim Hann list.
The game went south very quickly when we realized that I have a ridiculously fast shooty army that is completely capable of staying out of range for 5 turns and Josh ran virtually no shooting. This and a little disagreement over Lash Whips being cumulative or not (The Tyranid FAQ clears it up) made the game a little discouraging. I hope that we see quite a bit more of these crazy bugs in the future as the Inferno rages on.
Notes/Thanks
We had a newcomer visit the Inferno today, thanks go out to Davis for stopping by to roll some Space Marine dice and kick some serious Chaos Space Marine ass. Larry made the lists so one sided that he just threw in the towel without finishing the game.
Harry threatens to give up on his Dark Angels altogether, for straight Space Marines, we shall see.
Special thanks to Josh for bringing over the large selection of exotic imported beer. Some old favorites (Tsing Tao, Sapporo) mixed in with some new Belgian nasties that where promptly dumped down the sink after I cleverly suckered everyone into taking an awful sip.
