Hey you puss-ridden sons of so-and so's...

I lost but it was a great game. Here is a batrep with maps and markers for a campiagn my buddy and I are running (alternating between Lunchammer and actual 1k+ games.) Enjoy it if you can and feel free to post questions/comments/I find you tittilating and mildly arousing.

I'm Matt in that Batrep, BTW.

Props to my buddy Joe for the graphics/notekeeping.

BUMP. No feedback on this? Better Nurgle choices? Better deployment? Better tactics?

I think you summed up the problem yourself pretty well...

I need to embrace the Plague Marines for what they are: close firefight specialists. I need to max out with 2 plasma rifles in each squad and use them. Dealing out and weathering fire is what they do best. They need to win games that way.


It's blindingly obvious that you split your army (unintentionally?) into two smaller chunks that were more easily dealt with. Concentrate and combine fire, have units supporting each other.

Great write up though! :)

Thanks for the feedback Mab. Yeah I def. moved my left flank too far forward. I was hoping to flank my right side around the terrrain and shift that left to meet them when the time was right but too much died too soon. I'm trying to learn the delicate art of blocking los with Rhinos when I advance but so far not much success, like here.

I also play IG so I'm trying to count on my Nurgle toughness more and "get out there" instead of camping like IG usually have to do. Such as my over extension here.
