I played three games two on the weekend and one on Tuesday. I don't remember everything but this is the first time I'm doing a battle report so be kind lol.
Game one
Grey knights vs Space wolves 1850
My opponent got to deploy first. He had a 3 or 4 razor backs with units in them, and another with a rune priest. The a unit of wolves and a special character with a thunder hammer and storm shield on a huge wolf(dragon) with a group of 4 other guys on wolves, 2 with hammer and two with normal weapons all with storm shields. Most of his stuff was deployed along the middle with the character right in the middle.
I had a group of 8 terminators, with a banner, falcons, incinerator, 2 hammers and some halberds and some swords on is thawn. A librarian with some buffing offensive powers. 5 terminators, with some 2 hammers, and incinerator, 1 set of falcons and a sword. two dreadnoughts, both with missile launchers, one with a lascannon and the other with assault cannon and psybolt ammo. A 10 man strike squad with mostly halberds other then two, Inquisitor coteaz, 6 acro-flaggelents in a rhino and a vindicare assassin. I deployed the 8 terminators with the librarian in the middle to meet his wolves riders i had them back fare enough that i thought they would not be able to assault so i could counter assault them. I had my dreadnoughts on my left side where he only had one razorback. The other 5 terminators i had near the 8 terminators but to the left, to the far right i had the rhino with my 6 acro-flaggelents with the 10 man strike quad in between. I infiltrated the assassin into a building in his deployment zone but far enough away that i was able to get him right in there.
I try to steal initiative but i am unable, i use coteaz's ability to try and steal again but I'm still unable to. His shooting takes out one dread and stuns the other. He charges my terminators and, after one round of combat my guys break and are over run, his wolves charge my strike squad i kill a few but they hold. I move my 5 termies up and shoot them doing nothing. My one dread uses psychic powers to take off his stunned and shoots but does nothing. I move my rhino up. I shoot a razorback with my turbo penetrator ammo and it wreaks it. I charge his wolfs with my 5 termies and inflict a wound or two but they get killed. I kill the rest of his wolves.
His next turn he immobilizes my rhino, and takes out the other dread. The rest of his shooting including psychic powers go at my assassin and they do nothing. Cover save of +3 saved every time with a tonne of shoots going at him it was crazy. His wolf riders assault my strike squad and they are smashed and run with only Coteaz and one member less then an inch from the edge of the board. I move my acro flaggelant out and regroup my inquisitor and the last member of the strike squad. I shoot at another razor back holding the priest this time and another wreak. I assault with the arco on his wolf riders and I'm killed before i can even attack lol.
He shoots my assassin again still not killing him not going anything. Coteaz and the strike squad member get killed. i call it there cause i have one immobilized rhino and an assassin which he is missing with shooting but the guys from the razor backs i wrecked are closing in. Good game lots of learning on what i like and don't like for Grey knights.
After battle thoughts. I should have had my terminators back farther so he couldn't have charger me. Also i learned i need some defensive powers on my librarian. I should also have shoot his character with the ammo for my vindicare that takes away invul save wargear, and then charged my 5 terminators into him and taken him out hopefully breaking the rest of the group but maybe not. Tell me what you think and i may post the other. Help with tactics would be nice since ard boys is coming up lol
