For this game I was allowing multiple units to occupy a square with a maximum of 3 units in a square, but this could be less if they didn't fit.
Necron Force |
I am using the Tank on Tank rule variant with some modifications for the SciFi games on a square gridded table. The units are described with (move-armour-range) and special rules.
1 x Monolith (1-12-3) heavy weapon
3 x Immortals (1-9/10-3) with a leader
4 x Warriors (1-8/10-2) with a leader
3 x Destroyers (3-10-2) with blast weapons
1 x Heavy Destroyer (2-10-3) with power weapon
1 x Destroyer Lord (3-10-2) is a Leader
1 x C'tan (1-12-3) Psychic and veteran
The Space Marine force was made up of:
1 x Scouts (1-7/10-2) sniper
2 x Tactical marine sections (1-8/10-2) flamers
2 x Tactical marine sections (1-8/10-2) with leaders
1 x Tactical marine sections (1-8/10-2) blast weapons
1 x Tactical marine sections (1-8/10-3)
1 x Landspeeder (3-11-3) blast weapons
1 x Assault sections (3-8/10-1) with leader
2 x Assault sections (3-8/10-1) flamers
1 x Assault sections (3-8/10-1) power weapon
1 x Whirlwind (2-11-6) heavy weapon
1 x Razorback (2-11-3)
1 x Dreadnoughts (1-11-1) assault and power weapon
1 x Dreadnought (1-11-3) power weapon
Space Marine Force |
Space Marines rush forward while keeping some units in reserve |
First blood going to the destroyers who brought their combined firepower to destroy razorback |
Fast attacking units move up on the flank. |
Necrons prepare to counter the flanking move |
More Necrons converge on the ruins |
Casualties mount on both sides |
Marine reserves move on the flank objective defended by a lone destroyer |
More marines join the battle for the ruins |
A flank objective is captured by marines |
The remaining Necron defence is slowly being eliminated |
Very nifty layout and great improv!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Of all my armies I have invested the most time in the Warhammer 40k collection and terrain. Partly because there are no boundaries as to what you can do.
DeleteGreat stuff!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dale. I have almost completed this particular 6x6 challenge and looking forward to playing Lion Rampant on a square grid.
ReplyDeleteI am also interested in seeing how you do with LR on a grid. Are you considering a large grid (6") or one figure per square?
DeleteIt also looks like you have changed some unit stats on the Sci Fi rules. For example, if you have a Dread with a PW it has an attack of 3, but now you show a Dread with a PW and an AW and it has an attack of 1. Are you going to update the rules to show your thought process on how to rate troops?
For Lion Rampant I have one unit of 12 models on a single base (I like big bases) and I track hits using dice on the base. This way I stick with 6 inch squares. Movement is simplified to foot units 1 square and mounted 2 squares.
DeleteAs for my SciFi variant I plan to update the rules by putting in some example units.
