Storm Lords
Space Marines vs. Eldar
Turn 4:
The Devastator Squad opens up fully upon the dark reapers, eliminating the unit. Spinning to face the new threat, the command squad razorback fires at the wave serpent, but cannot penetrate the energy field that protects it. The scouts fire again at the storm guardians, and kill another two in a hail of heavy bolter and sniper fire leaving only three standing.
Tac squad alpha, having secured the artifact, move backwards, away from the advancing Eldar forces.
Elsewhere, the melta gun from tac squad Beta in their rhino wounds the wraithlord, but this victory is to be short lived indeed.
The
near silent hum of the wave serpent's field generator becomes clear to tac squad
Alpha, as the serpent moves across the battlefield at full speed, intent on
stopping the withdrawing marines and reclaiming the artifact.
Next to it, the remaining storm guardians advance despite having been reduced to a third of their original number.
Eager
to come to grips with the enemy, the Wraithlord fires its shoulder mounted shiruken
cannon, immobilizing tac squad Alpha's rhino, the graceful creature than gliding
up to its side, where its power fists rip through the machine, destroying it
for good.
