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
