SABRE apocalyse battle report- third turn

The third turn of our club’s apocalypse game.  

TURN 3- ATTACKER

Attacker turn 3 overview

With a mighty roar, the Avatar of Khaine launched itself onto the wall, the defending Guardsmen held firm thanks to the rhetoric of the priest amongst them. The rest of the attackers continued to advance, the still mobile skimmers on the left flank advancing toward the objective held by the Death Guard.

TURN 2- ATTACKER

Attacker turn 2 overview.

The attacker’s right flank continued to advance, the Avatar eager to attack the defenders lining the wall. The skimmers on the left flank moved east to counter the rapidly advancing Death Guard forces. The mighty Eldar titan advanced towards the wall, its aim set on the damaged Baneblade. The Lord of Change flew up onto the wall, ready to attack the defenders stationed there.

SABRE apocalypse battle report 11,000 points- Deployment and first turn

This is the first part of the battle report of the apocalypse game for our club’s SABRE event (two day gaming event) was to be 11,000 pts per side. On one side would be the Astra Militarum, Dark Angels and 30K heresy Death Guard vs a combined force of Tau, Eldar and Daemons. Not the fluffiest of match ups, but we work with what we have and I thought this match up would provide a decent game.

They're coming right for us!

Apocalypse!

Gearing up for our club's apocalypse game this weekend. The event will stretch over two days (hopefully!) and will feature 11,000 pts per side. I have a 6000 pts list of Astra Militarum and Dark Angels ready to battle the Xenos threat.
In preparation for the battle, I have been busy constructing and painting a giant wall for the defenders to defend (oddly enough). The main body of the wall is 6 inches wide and stretches to 12 feet long! I have even managed to make a couple of ruined sections to replace the wall if our opponents are able to destroy it.
Plenty of photos and highlights from the battle to follow.
