Dark Angels faced Imperial Fists (or were they Alpha Legion) in Round 4 Nyrcon City. The Dark Angels won the roll to pick Attacker or Defender, and picked Attacker thinking it was the Defender...The Dark Angels were mostly footsloggers while the Fists mostly had transports.
The Dark Angels' first turn shooting was devastating, but by Turn 3 the Fists' killy squads had come out of their Land Raiders. Corswain and his retinue could have broken through with a Contemptor, but that would have meant leaving their foot-bound infantry to their fates. So Corswain dismounted and slew the Fists' Warlord while massed shooting eventually dealt with the Fist's other big elite squad of dudes with shields and power gauntlets.
Win for the Dark Angels, mostly on a great first turn of shooting and one really good set of Terranic Greatsword attacks. Slew the Warlord.
A chill game on a great table! Would really like a rematch with the roles switched! I like these missions - feels like a battle and there are meaningful decisions to be made.

Great game today with Omegon. Dark Angels vs Dark Mechanicum with their Alpha Legion Allied Detachment. Mechanicum brought his Knight Atrapos. Dark Angels brought their Cerberus. Mechanicum attacked and DA defended. Mechanicum seized two objectives in the first turn and launched onto their road to triumph. DA managed to seize two objectives but could not close the gap. Omegon won. Neither player killed a warlord.

Looked like a fun game with lots of big stuff! It was very fun! there were some crazy turns, with my knight very nearly being wiped out in one turn and only managing to shoot once all game. Its great motivation to actually paint up the rest of my boys. Shoutout to my melee automata that only came onto the board turn 3 and did nothing but jog for the entire battle.

3000 pt game today against Kalen's Imperial Fists! The Primarch's were out and it was a nice showing for Dorn who was able to take down Guilliman in combat Ultramarines were on defense in the mission, and the long deployment made it difficult for the Fists to punch through despite a very heroic veteran squad that took down a Preatorian squad, and a Destroyer squad. Ultramarine victory on points but a good game that could have broke either way imgur.com/a/ulZRymx
