WH 40K Battle Report - Orks vs Witch Hunters

February 22 , 2005

1500/1000 points, Mission Recon, alpha Level

A continuation of our weeklyl campaign, Bob and da boyz would outnumber tonight the beleaured Witch Hunters by a full five hundred points!

My fixed list for the campaign...

Warboss Bob [cybork body, eavy armor, bionic bonce, choppa, power klaw)
Sluggas (19 boys with 2 Bigshootaz, one burna, 1 nob with pklaw, shoota, and big gob)
Shoota boys (11 boys with 3 bigshootaz, 1 nob with bigshoota and choppa)
Gretchin (20 grots, 1 slavemaster with bigshoota, choppa, and squighound)
Trukk boyz in da Panzee Luuva (6 boyz witha burna, 1 nob with pklaw and choppa, Da Panzee Luuva has a red paint job, grot riggers, a reinforced ram, and a turbo boosta)
2 Buggies (twin linked rokkits, extra armor, red paint, grot rigger)
3 Killa Kans (extra armor, 2 big shootas, one rokkit.)

As I was allowed the campaign rules to add 500 points, I decided to field some fun things. I added

Big Mek Gooba, with all the toys, 3 mekboyz, an oiler, in da wrecka!
7 warbikes, plus a nob on bike with pklaw.

And he had
stuff :-)

I won the table edge, and he deployed first. I won the roll-off though, and I went first. WAAAAAGH!

Turn 1. We advanced in a solid line, and literally blasted the snot out of the vindicar assasain before he could shoot. He moved up his immolater, and slow roasted two bikes. One kan was stunned by a plasma rifle.

Turn 2. With our numbers, we charged forward! Everyone advanced, and the immolator was immoblized and stunned. The exposed plasma gunner got smoked by big shoota fire, and the bikes charged the pentitent engine, destroying a weapon. In retaliation, a melta gunner destroyed a kan, and two more bikes were killed, the powerklaw nob failing to damage the walker.

Turn 3. Da boyz advanced, highlighted by Gooba and da meks in da wrecka. Between three burnaz and two big shootaz on the wrecka, the entire imquisitor and retinue was wiped out. The Panzee luuva destroyed the immolater in a hail of big shoota fire, and the trukkaz moved up to join the assault against the pentitent engine.

The grots were shredded by lasgun and grenade launcher fire, but toughed it out. Worse yet, his sisters rolled up the side, and unloaded, killing 7 of the shoota boyz, leaving just four and the nob. Luckily they held. The pentitent engine withstood the charging orks, as the burna boy lit it up, cutting off another weapon. While it failed to hurt anyone in return, the charging nob shredded the walker with his klaw, causing an explosion that killed all of the bikers but the nob.

Turn 4: The shoota boyz,slugga boyz, and grots slid over towards the Sisters. A round of fire killed only one sister, and the shootaz assaulted, hoping to tie up the unit until the sluggaz could get there. After the charge, no witch died, but four of the shootaz went down, leaving the nob who rolled a 1 and a 2 for leadership - and he neede two ones! He fled, and was cut down. The sisters consolidated, and in the next round of shooting wiped out the slugga boy squad, killing 16. The remainder fled, and continued to flee off the battlefield. His cannonness assaulted and destroyed the grots as well.

Turn 5: In a rage, Bob charged towards the sisters, with Gooba and the meks following close behind. The kans and rokkits advanced on the remaining stormtroopers, killing all but one in combined fire, forcing the remaining model off the table. Bob charged the sisters, and killed three - in return, they put two wounds on him, but passed their leadership and got stuck in. In his turn the cannonness moved up, and the sisters and bob all failed to wound each other.

Turn 6: Gooba dismounted, and the meks charged in, and with bobs help, killed off all but one sister. Bob cut her down as she fled. The Wrecka tried to ram and smash the rhino, but failed in that attempt.

In a last ditch effort, his cannonness charged in, and killed bob, but it was too little, too late.
