[7/12 Apoc] Table 1: Tau vs Guard & Skull Bashers

Fighting huge battles with tiny men!

Postby cawshis on Tue Jun 09, 2009 8:04 am


TABLE 1: Tau Colonial Defense Force vs. Joint Skull Bashers and Imperial Guard Kronus Regiment
Planet: Cordack Secundus
Type: Desert Planet
Features: Nomadic low tech human civilization aligned with Tau colonial forces. Low water, desert plains.
Target: Ancient Adeptus Mechanicus System Defense Relay
[CRUSADE GOAL] Seize the blessed command center and reactivate the System Defense Relay!
Imperial forces must have a scoring unit holding the Command Centre and no Tau scoring units contesting it in order to gain a "Crusade" point.

Tau Forces: ~5000 pts, led by Commander Caw'Shis
Crusade Forces: ~4500pts (2300 Guard, 2500 Skull Bashers) Led by Captain Emukt of the Skull Bashers and Field General Jware of the Kronus 8th Regiment.



Notes:
1. Please post your FINAL ARMY List by June 15th for approval. Post the list in THIS thread. I will move it to the reserved post below.

2. Keep in mind that we are playing with 5th edition rules: Only TROOPS are scoring. Winners of this Apocalypse Day will be determined by # of objectives controlled at the end of a pre-determined time limit. You can only capture these objectives with SCORING units...i.e. Troops.

3. Use any formation, but please include the cost in your list and note which formations you are fielding in your published list.

4. Your models MUST be WYSIWYG. If you are using proxy models (from other ranges), please be sure it is clear what they are geared with.

5. Assets will be provided the DAY OF THE GAME. They will be provided per the rules. You will get a small amount of time to pick the asset(s) you want. If there is greater than 250 points between the Xenos and Crusade army lists, we will allow extra asset(s) to even it out. Hopefully, it won't come to that!

6. Falgrim and I reserve the right to ask you to reduce your points if we need to balance the table. We'd rather have an equal number of points on the table than hand out 4 assets to the smaller army!

If you have any questions, let me or falgrim know in the Logistics Thread! Feel free to use this thread to trash talk/strategize or call me names as well...but the main homework right now is to post your FINAL list!

Warning Imperial Research has identified strong links between the Tau and tentacle porn.
Furthermore, subjects who enjoy playing with Tau have shown a marked preference for hentai and ogling little girls in school uniforms!

You human devils stink! We Tau have no noses, and we can still tell.

And to double check - melta and flamers that the IG have are not TL and my guys can't use his reroll for reserves, correct?

Correct.

Though there are no reserve rolls. You pick half your "reserves" to come into play on Turn 2 and the rest come in on turn 3. So the reserve guys aren't really worth taking, jware!

Are the Legion of the Damned in Terminator armor? Also, how the Assault Terminators move - do they have jump packs?

Legion of the Damned have 3+ Invulnerable saves...but they are not in termie armor.

Assault Terminators are like regular termies...they are just equipped with Assault Weapons instead of Storm Bolters. So Lightning Claws or Thunder Hammers+Storm Shields.
