Flames of war - TY - Encounter

The game-year starts with a Flames of war Team Yankee, a rerun of my last TY. It's a soviet t-62 battalion vs a German Leopard 1 company at 50 pts. The battle is an encounter with delayed scattered reserves.


Turn 1
The west german starts the battle. The damage output on the first turn against g.t.g. soviets units are pretty fair. Three tanks and three transports is destroyed. However the soviets hits back, destroying two Leo 1:s.


Turn 2
The germans back off to protect the objective on the left side. Another couple of T-62s is destroyed. The Soviet act aggressive and claim objective with a pair of scout cars. The Tanks follow up the push behind the forest.


Turn 3 
The german Luchs arrive to contest the objective and also bail one scout car. On the right side the germans threaten the soviet objective by advancing. The soviet tanks destroys another Leo 1 and a Luchs, but the objective is now to heavily protected.





Turn 4
The gemans advance further towards the right objective but soviet reinforcement arrives and prevent any capture. The soviet command tank is destroyed by the Leopards.



 Turn 5 
The west germans destroy the last t-62 tank, forcing the soviets to flee as they only have one infantry unit alive in the formation.

Warhammer 40k - (v8) - Big guns never tire


Death Corps of Kreig vs Chaos Iron warriors/Deamons - 1250 pts


The imperium wins the roll-off for stating the battle, but Chaos seize the initiative.


While Chaos advance, the guards hold the line.


The Guard fire line opens up and kills a lot, destroying a squad of bloodletters turn 1.


Obliterators close in on the quad guns.


Very high Charge rolls give the chaos a fighting chance in combat!
  

Two lascannon hits is nothing for a Sorcerer, saving them both on sixes.
  

The Guard commander show how a Sorcerer can be killed in close combat, when lascannons fail to kill. 


The game ends at turn 5 with an imperial victory. A damaged basilisk kills the cultist holding the second Chaos objective preventing a Chaos victory. If the chaos Gods would have offered another turn, the Imperium would probably have been beaten. A very even game!

Death korps (9) 2 objectives, first blood, slay the warlord, 1 Heavy kill
Chaos (7): 1 objective, 3 heavy support destroyed, Line breaker

BunkerHive Necromunda

Necromunda has arrived to the bunker! And four four different fights where played out between eight gangs eager to win the reputation of being the most cruel and viscous masters of the underhive.

So my first ever game of Necromunda was insanely bloody. It was Genestealer Cult "Generation Primus Miners" against the Goliaths. The leader and the champions where all taken out of action and the fact that the Goliaths bottled (fled) before my weak cultist had the time to flee was the only winning factor.

Some photos from the battle seen below:
