GAMING: Battle with Garrboi at the Bunker on a Friday Night

Was pumped up and excited to finally get to face cranky man garrboi -- of all close to 10 years that I have met him we never had a single game :P.

He surprised me with playing his 4e Plague Marine Friendly List. No worries he did not max it up or anything but he did have a nasty surprise in some of those units.

I had:

Warboss - PK, Heavy Armor
Big Mek - KFF
10 Lootas
8 Tank Bustas
Nob Mob - 6 Nobs in HA- 2 PK 1 Warbanner, 1 PainBoy
   w/ Trukk
Ork Boyz   - 20 with 2 Big Shoota
Ork Boyz  - 20 with 2 Big Shoota
Ork Boyz - 11 w/ Nob Pklaw
   w/ Trukk
Ork Boyz - 10 with Big Shoota
  w/ Trukk
Killa Kanz - 3 with Big shoota
Killa Kanz - 3 with Grot Zooka


What he Had
Chaos Lord with Mark of Nurgle and Man Reaper
7 Chosen w/ Champ Pklaw. flamer Melta
   w/ Rhino
7 Plague Marine with Champ - Klaw, Melta, Flamer
   w/ Rhino
7 Plague Marine with Champ - Klaw, Melta, Flamer
   w/ Rhino
7 Plague Marine with Champ - Klaw, Melta, Flamer
   w/ Rhino
7 Plague Marine with Champ - Klaw, Melta, Flamer
   w/ Rhino
Predator - with Mutated Hull, Twin Lascan, Lascan sponsoons


He had other stuff that I had forgotten what .


GAME PLAY:

He did a refused flank and sent his Rhinos to his Right Flank with his Predator the only thing not moving so that it can take shots at my Grotzooka Kans.  It would finally blow up when it exposed its flank to my Lootas when it was shooting at my Kans on the right flank to support the Death Guard that was there.


He had disembarked his Marines from there Rhinos and proceeded to double tap there bolters and flamer my boyz but there were enough boyz for them to remain fearless. 2 squad of boyz jumped on one unit of  Death Guard while my Nob squad with Warboss jumped up and down on another squad.


Garrboi finally understood what I meant when I said I just had to roll buckets of dice with this army. Literally.


We just kept throwing units on the right flank. He had killed the 2 units of boyz on the left but then my Nobz wiped out one plague marine squad before it got jumped by the Chaos Lord and the Chosen. He managed to kill my Warboss but then the rest of the nobz wiped out him and his squad. This is where Garr conceded the game.

Wacky Moments.
 - Tank Bustas blow up the rhino.. making it explode with a 6 inch kill radius.. killing a bunch of boyz
 - Rhino Rams Trukk.. blows it up exploding and taking out more orks (this is turning into a pattern)

It was good quick game. Got to finish painting all of them :P
