I was using my usual list, Vince was using is league list plus Ravana, a FW Riptide with 2 large blast guns, ap3 str6, if it hits a bulking model the hit counts as double... nova charged it can fire each gun twice!
Huh... I wrong a whole paragraph that didn't post...?
Lol anyway, basically I went on to say:
I gated forwards turn1 and threw the kitchen sink into the Ovesa, Ravana, Farsight and Buffmander (+4 Missile/Shield Drones and 2 Shield Drones) and when the dust had settled nothing had died... Ravana was on 1 wound and Ovesa had failed 1... using my dice... they betrayed me bad! I did 6 wounds in total.
On average with the Plasma hits on the bomb, I should have done 5 wounds alone :p, I think if the dices had been average I should have caused about 10 wounds, but only scored 6, which meant the bomb hit me at full strength and ripped the bomb a new one, Ravana alone caused 40 str6 ap3 wounds... Ovesa 3 and the missile plus farsight 9... lol luckily my dice where equally hot and at the end of turn1 I had Farsight on 1 wound, 2 double plasma suits, 1 double fusion, Sevrin and gun drones! It was a mess!
But in the end the my bomb beat Vince in combat after killing the Buff Commander, Sevrin Loth killed the lot in about 4 rounds of combat, on turn3 he finished of Ravana and Farsight with 2 hits :p Force Weapon for the win!
But while this was going on, the other Riptide and Battlesuits killed all my troops by turn5, I was relying on the Inquisitor to hold Vinces last troop unit (5 or 6 kroot) in combat, but couldn't roll below a 8 as he fluffed his moral.. if it went onto turn6 I think I could have killed the Kroot with my remaining Skyray and Inquisitor, plus the remnants of the Bomb, Farsight, Loth and Buff Commander. But alas yet again, beaten by the mission!
Well played Vince top game!
Oh and the game ended something like 12-8 or 13/7 to Vince using the Cale scoring :p
