Summary
 
Ok that didn’t go well..I put the RENEGADE WARBAND in the Thunder hawks, so that I could do the assaults, but then have a Firebase that could lay down fire…Well it didn't work that way fully..Next time I will swap one of the RENEGADE WARBAND for a RAPTOR CULT and see how that goes.
 
The HARBINGER BOMBER, now that was fun..although was help by steel legion in packing things together.As why and he explain maximum AA coverage for all formation.Yeah i can see his point..
 
Anyway hoping to get another game in soon..
