Strength 10

Yesterday I went to a Strength 10 Chapter get together and had a blast!  I got to play on some great terrain, and met some great folks.  Looking forward to the next one.  I brought my Dark Eldar and got in a team game (DE and Necrons vs. Space Marines and Space Wolves) and a 2000 point game against CranberryMuffinMan (Space Marines).  The xenos pulled out a close victory in my team game thanks to the Necrons.  All I can say is my Wyches didn't run off the board as fast as they could have and the Necron Overlord just dominated assaults..  Until that dreadnought charged in.  My 2000 point game against CranberryMuffinMan was a good time!  He ran 2 bike squads with a 10-man Assault Terminator squad, a 10 man squad of tooled-out Vanguard Vets (lots of power weapons and shields!), Khan and Tigerius.  It was a hard-fought battle between 2 very maneuverable opponents.  The DE were eventually able to eliminate the bikes and vanguard vets, so we called it there.  The rest of the game probably would have been spent scooting and shooting the terminators, and I was going to capture one objective for sure.

All in all, it was a good time!  Now it's time to get ready for the Feast of Blades style tournament at Ares Wargames this Sunday (May 6).
