Holy War on 12th Mar (sunday)

Today the Order of the Southern Cross wage war against the Heretics known as Word Bearers led by Tsui. Both Armies were nearly wiped out. I had squad Yi and Squad Sophia left and 2 immoblised vehicles(squad adeline did well fighting...holding the foe for 2-3 turns) while tsui had a bike unit and some havocs left. but as tsui complete the mission, the game ended in a draw. The Southern Cross had not succeeded in their mission and the forces of the Imperium will expect a major onslaught soon. nevermind that, at the rate attrition is going...chaos will b extinct HA!

Anyway i am quite happy with the performance of my army despite it being a little slow. the main reason why i did not fufill the objective is because tsui took out the fast units rather than the foot sloggers and the rest will do. However he felt that i can do better without the exorcist. that i disagree. although exorcist cost 270 points total and were onli useful in the first few turns...they give me a strategic advantage. the ability to take out power armored infantry and tanks early in the game is something nice. 2 exorcist units and easily neutralise AHX's obliterator squads as proven in the previous battle(not featured here).

I played 40k yesterday because no one brought fantasy stuff, next week i will try my new "budget" DE army(basically budget coz it utilise exisitng models rather than buying 200 bucks more of stuff). if it can do well, i will bring it to tourney. yah $200 worth of minis for a lifespan of one yr plus isn't worth it. plus there r rumors of new de warriors...which i believe
