Summary

Interesting.. Here i was thinking we be going to a fourth turn and well it didn’t happen, since I got in front by a nose. Turn two was even more fun since there was 9 engagements action..love it.

The Sautekh Legion list I took had no portals and it was interesting to try that angle with a necron force..So by the look I will get to for another run soon, since the rematch has been called for..

May the dice roll high for you…

Regards
