Bishop(CSM) vs Sweeney Todd(DE+CWE) - 1750

[Sweeney Todd]

I'll kick off shooting with the Exarch firing the quad-gun at the last Rhino. Rolling to hit:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Rerolls for twin-linked:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Much better. So all 4 shots hit, rolling to penetrate:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

I'll reroll that one failure because of Tank Hunter:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

So that Rhino is very definitely dead. I'll roll to see if it explodes, otherwise it's wrecked.

 

[Sweeney Todd]

So R1 is wrecked. And I'll need to see how you disembark NM1 before I decide on the rest of my shooting, which will presumably be this weekend.

 

[Bishop]

I'll try to be on more often then just the weekend.. last week was just ridiculous for me at work Though given the time difference, it'll still be slow.. but slow is better then stopped right.

 

[Bishop]

disembarking... don't think that there's any point in trying to hide them at this point..

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Rhinos don't have front doors, and when a transport is wrecked the passengers disembark within 3'' of an access point, instead of 6''(pg80 of the HCRB, not sure if it's the same with the mini rulebook). So in order to disembark the way you did with NM1, you will have to perform an emergency disembarkation. Is that what you wanted? If it's not, go ahead and alter NM1's position again.

 

[Bishop]

Sorry, I missed that distinction.

 

[Bishop]

Just noticed that the front model was probably still too far...

so, this should be fine now..

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Well, if I wanted to be pedantic I could argue that the side doors of the Rhino do not occupy the entire side, but....nah.

My Razorwing will open up on NM1. Firing 2 dark lances and 2 monoscythe missiles. I'll resolve the lances first:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

:slapface:

Here's the first missile, rolling for deviation:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

I bag 1 Cultist instead of getting any of NM1. Second missile, same spot as before:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Hits only 4 models. Rolling to wound, Cultist on the left:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Ravager 2 will fire at NM1 as well, to try and make up for the dismal failure called a Razorwing. I'll do focus fire on the ones in the open, rolling to hit:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Rolling to wound:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

So far:

1 AP5 wound on the Cultists
4 AP5 wounds on NM1
3 AP2 wounds on NM1, focus fire on the ones with no cover save.

War Walkers will open up on NM1 as well, rolling to hit:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

Prescience:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

12 hits, rolling to wound:

 

[Sweeney Todd]

1 AP5 wound on the Cultists
14 AP5/6 wounds on NM1
3 AP2 wounds on NM1, focus fire on the ones with no cover save.

I'll want to see how the saves go before continuing the shooting phase.

 

[Bishop]

cover save on the cultist..

 

[Bishop]

14 saves on NM1

 

[Bishop]

So, the rearmost NM1 lives (BM)

 

[Bishop]

perhaps a little too much faith in my power armour..
