It’s worth noting that all the games were played on 4×4 boards. From these changes it was much less alpha/early-strike oriented, and much less able to spam camp objectives.
Notably missing are the Librarian, the Sternguard’s Drop Pod, my numerous Landspeeders, and fewer Troops than I usually run even at this point level. Predators x2 w/ Autocannon, Heavy Bolter sponsons.Devastators x5 w/ Vet Sgt, 2x Plasmacannons, 2x Heavy Bolters.Tacticals x10 w/ Rhino, Vet Sgt, Melta Bombs, Meltagun, Missile Laucher.Tacticals x10 w/ Razorback, Vet Sgt, Powerfist, Plasmagun, Missile Launcher.In dropping my usual list(s) down to 1250 points I wound up with one that was built of my standard elements but felt very different overall: More photos are in the Flickr gallery I was able to get at least a few of most of the armies. Orks invading… no, running away from… an Imperial dockyard.
Other tables featured a snowy border checkpoint, ruined mega cathedral, and Imperial loading dock. I myself played in a French village, in a lush greenland canyon, and a parched, corrupted desert. This diversity of nice looking, well playing tables also really demonstrated their excellent terrain collection, especially with a lot of very thematic setups. As always the missions are straight forward and well balanced, with a number of critical details from the book missions adjusted, like setting a fixed and even numbers of objectives where appropriate. All the small but critical stuff a bunch of us have asked for over time, like posted terrain specifications and tournament standings formulas, are all getting done, and notably lacking at other similar venues. I only finished seventh, getting annihilated in the first game by Owen’s Blood Angels, which went on to win, and a closely fought but ultimately crushing loss to Jeremy’s Daemons in the third.īenn and Adam have Redcap’s 40k tournaments super dialed at this point. Colin’s Noise Marines wound up second, Brett’s Orks somewhere in the middle. The majority of armies were loyalist Marines, with a sprinkling of Chaos, Eldar, Tau, and Orks.
Redcap’s December 40k tournament went off well yesterday, ten people attending.
