Space Wolves 2.4.2 V’s Minervan Tank Legion

 

Well its Friday again and we manage another 5000 point per side game, this time Space Wolves 2.4.2 V’s Minervan Tank Legion.

So a few words from the Space wolves commander………

Greg and I(Britt) had another fun game of Epic Armageddon today. Greg's 5000 points of Minervan Tank Legion vs Space Wolves (commanded by me, but nicely painted up by Greg). Greg sets a nice table top, so we had everything from towering ruins to dense jungle to fight over. And that we did. For four hours the battle raged, with many a cunning plan successful or thwarted and high casualties on both sides (except in the air force. They mainly stayed grounded, or when they did take off, were usually pretty harmless. I'm thinking of transferring mine to the infantry!) Anyway, we both suffered at the hands of Lady Luck, but had a lot of laughs and good times as well.Those IG SHT's  and large Leman Rus units were very tough opponents. While the Marines prevailed, it was a much closer game than the scoreboard would suggest.

Anyways on with the report….
