As I mentioned in my two previous posts, I had the opportunity to play in a 2K
tournament on Sunday. My first round was a lucky, but convincing win against an
SW list, while my second round was solid victory over a Newcron army. My list was:
Draigo
Paladins (5) with DH x2, Halberd x2,
Pyscannon x2, and Banner
GKSS (5) with Pyscannon and Pysback with SL
GKSS
(5) with Pyscannon and Pysback with SL
GKSS (5) with Pyscannon and Pysback
with SL
GKSS (5) with Pyscannon and Pysback with SL
Venerable
Rifleman
Rifleman Dread
Stormraven with TLMM and TLPC and SL
Dread
Calgar with Teleporter
The tournament itself was a three-round tournament
with each of the three deployments. The objectives for each round were the same:
three sieze ground objectives, two capture and control objectives, and KPs.
Winning an objective was worth 10 points, draws were worth 5, and losses 0 for a
max of 30 points per round. I didn't get army lists from my opponents so I am
going from memory.
Round 3
Deployment: Spearhead
So I rolled into the third round with 60 points and was paired off with a Space Marine player who had also received 60 points from his previous rounds. I don't think either of the next two people had 40 points, and I think I had a sizeable VP lead, so I just needed to force a draw to win the Tournament. However, when I saw his list, I knew I was facing an uphill battle:
Vulkan
Tactical Squad with PF, MG, MM, and DP
Tactical Squad with PW, Flamer, MM, and Rhino
Tactical Squad with PW, Flamer, ML, and Rhino
Scout Squad (10) with Snipers and Cloaks
Ironclad with DP
