Take and Hold
Here is the Take and Hold Mission we played today. This was supposed to be our tie breaking game for who wins our little campaign but it didn't quite work out that way as I will outline below. So without further ado here is my report:
Turn 1: The Necrons and the Tyranids turn goes uneventful.
The Eldar and Space Marines turn I park my Wave Serpent next to the objective (that Bunker in the picture above) and unload my Dire Avengers. The SM Razorback takes out 6 gaunts.
Turn 2: The Necrons and Tyranids attack and the Monolith kills a Fire Dragon and the Nightbringer takes out a Dire Avenger.
In the Eldar and SM turn my Dark Reapers take out 3 scarab bases while the SM Devestators, Dreadnought and Razorback all take out 12 Gaunts. The Veteran squad takes out a Genestealer.
Turn 3: The Necrons and Tyranids attack and the Destroyers take out the Vyper and the Hive Tyrant kills a SM Devestator. In assualt the Flayed ones (who deepstriked early I just forgot to mention it) take out 3 Dire Avengers. The Lictor kills a SM and Marneus kills a Genestealer.
The Eldar and SM turn my Fire Dragon Exarch takes out a Pariah and the SM Dreadnoughts take out 8 Genestealers. In assault the Harlequin Troupe Master and the Striking Scorpions Exarch each kill a Flayed One and the SM Dreadnought kills a Lictor.
Turn 4: The Necrons and Tyranids turn the Monolith kills 3 Dire Avengers and the Immortals take out a Fire Dragon. In assault the Wraiths kill 7 Harlequins.
In the Eldar and SM turn my Pathfinders take out 2 Scarab bases. The SM Dreadnought takes out the Carnifax, the Land Raider takes out the Hive Tyrant and the Land Speeders take out a full squad of Tyranid Warriors (3).
Turn 5: In the Necrons and Tyranids turn the Destroyers wipe out the Wave Serpent. A spore mine kills a Veteran Marine and the Immortals take out the Wraithlord. In assault the Nightbringer takes out the Striking Scorpions Exarch and the Lictor kills a space marine.
Then in the Eldar and SM turn the Razorback kills a Biovore and the Assault Marines shoot down 6 Hormagaunts. In assault the Nightbringer kills a Striking Scorpion and a Wraith kills a Harlequin. The space marines take out another Lictor.
Turn 6: The Necrons and the Tyranids Heavy Destroyers take out 2 Dire Avengers. In assault the Nightbringer kills 2 Striking Scorpions and the Immortals kill a Swooping Hawk.
On the Eldar and SM turn we decided to end it because we wouldn't have been able to take out the troops they had near the bunker so we called it a tie because we also had troops near the bunker.
So the final verdict was that we called a tie and set up the tie breaker for next week at another Seek and Destroy! Wish me luck.
