Well, it was RTT time again at GMI Games & Collectibles, so my gaming group-the Rites of War- got a few guys together and headed down to have some fun! Once we arrived, we knew it wasn't going to be your typical RTT...a lot of great players with great looking Armies showed up! Stefan Viter(Nurgle Beasts), Keith French(Wood Elves), Fred Whitney(Wood Elves), Henry Herz(Khorne Daemonic Legions), Jim (???)(High Elves), Big Quinton(Khorne Beasts)...plus a few locals to the shop...Mike(Lizardmen), Bob(Undivided Chaos Mortals), another Lizardmen Army(forget the guy's name ), an Orcs'n Goblins guy(forget his name too ), a lady with Dwarfs(???) and then us...ROW...me(Undivided Daemonic Legions), Billy(Slaanesh Daemonic Legions), Maxx(Nurgle Mortals/Beasts/Daemons), Alex(Skaven) and finally Brian(Vampire Counts). 16 players in all, and quite a few really good ones! A bit of a higher end turn out for Chaos as well... ...7 Armies worth! Well, time to get on with it! ROUND 1: Messengers I was the pitted against Stefan! He has to be one of the top players on the West Coast, and my only loss with my Undivided Daemonic Legions was to him a few months back at the LA Strategicon's RTT in the finals against his Cult of Slaanesh...tough game...and I was looking for some redemption! Stefan moves most of his Army their full distance, wanting to come to grips with me ASAP, he remembers my Army...I stop all his Magic...My Turn, I back up some, move up other places and let loose with Magic...kill off enough Ungors in his general's unit to cause a Panic Check, he fails and Flees back 11"! Flesh Hounds get charged by Centigors and pop, Bloodcrushers counter charge and catch Fleeing Centigors...Flamers wipe out his Furies...Magic zaps up his Giant some, puts a few wounds on it...Minotaurs of Decay charge front of my Horrors, but they only loose a few models, and pass their Instability test...next turn my Horrors put 1 wound on with Bound spell and 2 during CC, killing off 1 Mino...win CC, break the Minos and pursue, fail to catch them but still get the unit standard...the Minos Flee through a Beast Herd w/Shaman and it fails Panic check and Flees through another Herd, which also fails its Panic check and Flees!...Giant and Nurglings kill off 1 of my Messengers, then Over Run into my Bloodletters...Bloodletters loose no models(make all my 4+ Ward Saves) then chop into the Giant and Nurglings, I win CC, Nurglings pop but Giant holds...my Bloodletters easily chop it down on the following turn of CC...Flamers blasted his Tuskgor Chariot to pieces in 1 round of Shooting w/31 shots...Furies fly around "faking" potential Charges...my Daemon Prince jumps jumps around casting Magic Missles...final turns, his Super Herd w/Beastlord, BSB and a Bray-Shaman charge my Flamers who've blasted away most of the Ungors and Gors the previous turn...I Stand & Shoot, killing off all but the Command models for the Herd...CC is bad for Stefan and he only kills 5 of the 9 Flamers, the 4 left over direct all 8 of their Attacks against the Command models, and kill them off...I loose CC, but manage to pass Instability with a 3!!! My Bloodcrushers counter Charge the Flank hitting the Beastlord, while my Furies hit the Rear...CC I put 2 wounds on the tough Beastlord, kill the Shaman and wound the BSB once...I win and he fails both Break Tests...Bloodcrushers happily pursue and catch them...game is over at this point...only lost 1/2 my Flamers and the Flesh Hounds though Stefan did manage to get 2 of the Messengers off the table edges...I didn't even bother with them...so Massacre in my favor ROUND 2: Treasure Hunt Ended up having to play one of my own gaming group members and long time buddy/rival Billy! He managed to Massacre Keith French in Round 1...the terrain was truly horrid for both of our Armies...way too many roads w/walls and fencing and buildings a woods and a hill...ugh...basically we just moved around and zapped each other up a bit, but is was his Magic that hurt me...damn Slaanesh Spells...got the Frenzy one on my Flamers, and for some dumb reason I pulled them out of the Woods... ...his Keeper of Secrets was a pain, and it's what killed off my Furies, my Flamers and my Flesh Hounds, thoug I did manage to take half of it's wounds down as well...I took out his only Slaaneshii Chariot, more than half of his Mounted Daemonettes and just 1 of his 3 Pleasure Seekers...points in all came up me ahead by less then 100VPs...I should haven't pulled my Flamers out of the Woods and I should've finished off his Mounted Daemonettes and Pleasure Seekers w/Magic...oh well...game ends in a Draw... ROUND 3: Pitched Battle At this point in the Tournament, there's only 2 players that have a 2-0 record...with so many good players there, there was a lot of Draws! I was now pitted against another ROW member and good buddy Maxx... He didn't like some of the terrain in the middle of the board, 3 Chaos Pillars that would basically impede both of our Armies main units from moving around...so we removed them...no big deal...Maxx really didn't want to play against me, and would've preferred to play our other member Billy but the judge had rolled a dice to see who'd play who since we all had the same record/points at that point...Maxx's list is tough, but a bit slow, and not very Magic defensive...I took advantage of this and quickly killed off all his faster units...Bloodcrushers and Flesh Hounds combo charged the Nurglings, popped them, then Bloodcrushers Overran into the Chaos Ogres frontage, while the Flesh Hounds parked an inch away from the large unit of 22 Chosen Warriors of Decay w/Chaos Lord and Chaos Sorcerer...but it was at a 45' angle... ...Maxx didn't want to wheel away from my Flesh Hounds because this would expose his unit's left Flank to them and i'd take it on the next turn...so we took the bait and charged my Flesh Hounds, chopped up a few, and popped them, then Over Ran so he'd get more distance on the board...but it was the wrong direction because most of my Army was to the right...my Horrors had stayed inside a Woods where I could see out and be seen, but it prevented my from being charged by the 2 Chariots of Nurgle...Max didn't want to risk taking D6 S(6) hits on them...my Flamers also hid in this Woods, and blasted away 8 of his 10 Furies in 1 turn of Shooting...he charged in on foot the next Turn but my Flamers killed the 2 remaining Furies in CC...I continued to bait Maxx with my Bloodletters by backing up and to my right, and when he failed 3 Stupidity Tests in a row(Helm of Many Eyes) this just destroyed his chances of of doing anything with the unit...I killed off the 2 Chariots, one with some Magic from my Horrors Lvl 1 Champ which did 3 wounds to it, he then Charged it into my Bloodletters hoping to pin them in CC while his large block of Chosen Warriors changed direction to get there...but I again passed all my 4+ Ward Saves and chopped up the Chariot...the 2nd one died to by Bloodcrushers...while his unit was forced to follow it's Stupidity leader, I blasted it for 3 full Turns of Magic and 1 Turn of Shooting...I finally reduced the unit down to 12 models, 2 of which where his Characters...the game was over, and Maxx was frustrated with me and my list...I gained another Massacre... Over all I earned a total of 91pts in the Tournament which got me 3rd place, while Billy got 95pts for 2nd place...Henry Herz took Overall with 113pts...Stefan got Best Sportsmanship and poor Bob got Best Looking Army...I forget who won Best Army Comp/Fairness list...if only I had finished painting my Daemons!!! If you guys have any questions, or want some break downs of some of the Army Lists from this RTT, just post a reply here. Hope ya'll enjoyed this! |

A very Nice result. Can you post the list that you used? I'm always facinated with the Daemonic Legions, even if a pure Nurgle one isn't that powerful anymore..... (longs for the days of 5th Ed and his spellcasting plaguebearers....) :wub: |

Quite a typical Khrone daemonic legion army, I wonder why it always seems to work so well |

The massed numbers of WS(5), S(5) and Frenzied Attacks tends to worry players...more about intimidation then anything else...as a side note, Henry's List was illegal... :angry: ... |

that is pretty butt tacular BTW but nice list on your part he may have just mixed something up especially with so many units 1 more model here and there and you could end up with the wrong amount. Still sux big time and he should have double checked for a tourney ;) |

Thanks for the positive Replys...but as for "HIM", I have his list...and he didn't just add a model here or there...but underpayed for each of his Bloodletters... His list in the last RTT he played in was also illegal...brought an Aspiring Champion of Khorne, upgraded him to a BSB and used it as his General! I caught this in the finals when he and I played...he at first argued with me that if was completely legal...once I proved him wrong, he said "oh well, let's keep playing"...I then sent in my Chaos Furies on a Flank Charge against his BSB/General and killed him straight out in Close Combat! :rock: ... |
