There comes the first battle of our group in the 6th edition. It was just a first look on the rules and the game flow. We reserved a table at our local hobby shop but sadly I didn't take any pictures (not that you'd want to see half undercoated armies). We took turns playing and got around most of the basic rules. We played around 5 rounds and sticked to shooting. The termie's assault cannon did wonders as did the plasma canon on the Dark Angel side. On the chaos side, the hellbrute sniped out several termies with it's twin-linked lascannon. The heavy bolter almost killed the Dark Angels bikers by itself, being killed in the past round by a lucky bolter shot. Props to the Chaos Lord for taking a whole salvo of terminator fire (including the S6 AP4 heavy 4 assault cannon) and not only surviving it with one wound but also covering the whole chosen squad with his 2+ armor save for no causalities, yeah just because.
No frozen angels on the battlefield this time around as they are still getting unfrozen (wortspiel!) and will not fight before their captain is ready for battle. Also i still have some fanfic to finish and publish before getting into any fights. On another note, I just received my magnets and I undercoated my bases so I'll finish building my tactical squad tomorrow and hopefully finish painting them by the week end.
