BT v Orks. 1500 pts. Capture & Control with DoW.
Oh dear.
I lost and how. My brother-F, seized the initiative. Well that flummoxed me. Zogwart trundled on and squigged my Marshal.... :(
Turn 2.
Lootas mowed down most of a squad and the Vindi lost it's gun. My LC did well against the Killa Kan squadron.
Turn 3.
The Ven dread was immobilised. The Vindi rammed a Buggy and blew it up ~ nice.
Turn 4.
Melee was joined but the horse had already bolted. The game was effectively over. I contested the one Ork held objective but no roll of 1 or 2 to bail me out with a draw.
What did I learn from my shellacking?
A]Never, ever leave ICs exposed, even if you get to force your foe back in deployment. B] Without my Marshal, my Crusaders struggled to kill the Eavy Boyz in droves, which further reduced Fearless casualties.
Other than that just a touch of bad luck really. A] The Vindi losing it's gun even when I had popped smoke on T2 B] The Dread being immobilised ~ just when it was poised to Assault the Warboss + Mob.
My mistakes and a few unlucky rolls let the Orks start strong and simply carry there momentum.
Just one of those days. ;)
