Sons of Horus Battles

[ohgodsnakes]

More games!

1500 vs Space Wolves.

Two leviathans and two predators were a little scary across the table.





Game was to tight to remember to take photos. At the end of the day, the Sicaran Arcus, Melta Rhinos, and the Xiphon interceptor managed to kill both Leviathans. Victory for the SoH!

A 3k banger VS the World Eaters

Here's the list

A couple red units to test out if I like them. The Falchion will be repainted Sons of Horus Green, since it's only a basecoat of red right now. Xiphon will be remaining red. I love the model enough to paint new ones for SoH. Plus I'm very happy with the paint job on the Blood Raven one.


Jetbikes, tacticals and a rhino facing down a demolisher, rhino, tacticals, praetor (I think), and a hidden leviathan. Uh oh.


Assualt marines and tacticals backing up a Dreadnought



Abadon and his justerean body guard teleport in to help out!


And help they did!



Angron looking down the barrel of the Falchion's Vulcano Cannon.

Had a 3k Game VS Keegan's Salamanders featuring Vulcan!
Again, too exciting to remember to take photos. Here are are the only ones I had.


That is Vulcan and his terminator bodyguard next to the Falchion. The dice beside them is the charge roll... They needed a 3. Picture was taken after the Surge move.


Don't worry, Vulkan got his revenge. Killed the falchion, Abbadon, most of his justerean, a dreadnought and a couple other random things along the way. Finally went down to the Justerean after a Chaplain joined the fight.


Game ended in a tie! It all came down to the attrition secondary, and we matched each other unit for unit.

1750pts vs the White Scars

Here are the highlights!

A Rhino running down some Cataphracti. Ramming is so fun! They passed all their saves, but got scared and ran away!



In the middle of that mess is a White Scars Praetor. How do you think this fight is going to go for him? He's staring down 18 assault marines and a chaplain.



Oopsie, a Praetor sized hole.



The angry mob moves on to the frightened Cataphracti. The Dreadnought blew up though.



Overall a fun game! A little one sided, but much of that can be blamed on Pigeon's TERRIBLE luck with dice this game. Sometimes the winds of the warp are not blowing in your direction. Lot's of 1's and 2's were rolled that day.

I love fighting armies with white schemes it seems!

2000pts, Blood Fued, Search and Destroy deployment (table quarters)

Here is deployment. Tonnes of infantry on the board for this one! I had 52 folks in power armour, and Trevor had over 55 infantry models!



Dreads leading the charge



Dreadnoughts breaking out front to confront the Landraider full of Red Butchers, A PRaetor, and a centurion. Dreads killed them alllll. Do you like Dreads? Play Horus Heresy.



Big ol' squad of assault marines running up the field. 20 with a Chaplain.




The 20 Assault marines ram into 20 tacticals with chain bayonets.



The assault marines really went ham on that squad. Killed 12 or 13 I think? The remaining turned tail and ran.

Awesome battle. I’m loving the marine on marine fights. You can feel the brotherly love lol

A lovely 1500pts match VS Alpha Legion on Saturday. Almost no photos again... Games are too exciting to remember to take any!

Got one shot here of that big ol' assault squad doing big ol' assault squad things to a unit of Lascannon heavy support marines.

[ohgodsnakes]

A couple of shots from the HH event a couple weekends ago.

Vs Raven guard


Assault Squad vs Dark Furies


The folks in the background there are unfortunately dead . The Praetor managed to kill the dread while using tactical marines as fodder.

Went to a cottage weekend with some other families. While the kids were sleeping, got in a 3k game vs Salamanders.


About half way through turn 2. The recon marines and the lascannon team on the opposite side of the board were having a shoot out. That invictor war suit is a leviathan haha.
 
We started the game with 6 rhino chassis. None survived.


Game started at nap time, but a cease fire was called for afternoon activities. Once the kids were back asleep, we finished the fight. Vulkan stand atop the building that the lascannon team once occupied after chasing down Abbadon and his Justarean.



The true casualties are the models the children got to though!

[chrisallen]

Nobody thinks about the real casualties of plastic men war.

Looks like a great time!

Played a 3k game a couple weeks ago and tried to take a photo at the top of each turn and my phone spat out this fun gif.

I like how you can follow the xiphon across the battlefield!

[distractedcarnifex]

Some fantastic armies in this thread! Hoping to see them this coming weekend.

[ohgodsnakes]

Played a 2k game VS Kalen's militia. Over 150 infantry on the table!

Conclusion: Militia seem VERY underpowered. We agreed to do another game of Militia vs Militia, and maybe an Astartes game where the marines get 2k, but Militia get 3k. They seemed that bad.

[kalen]

I think I have some minor ptsd from this battle lol

[ohgodsnakes]

Had a 2k game vs Steve's ultramarines.






Played the Goonhammer mission "Push the Line"
Fun progressive mission that involved three objectives in the center of the battlefield that got pushed towards your opponent's deployment zone if you scored them

Victory for the SoH, with the help of Steve's dice. Lots of 1's rolled for armour saves.
