We chose attack on all fronts, thin their ranks, and we wernt sure about the third one, so took the mission secondary.
We all forgot CP regen, so no harm, no fowl there. AdMech and Khorne prespent for deepstrike and some other thing that didnt actually matter. Khorne was a throne, 6 hounds, 1 hound character, 20 deepstriking bloodletters. AdMech was 2 knights, 2x5 infantry, and a tech priest of some description. Tau I am not totally familiar with but flying commander mech, markerlight guy, 3x5 breachers, big walking rocket mech with 2 drones, 10 Kroot. I took Flayed Skull Archon (Djinn Blade/Blast Pistol), 2x5 Kabal with BP and B'er, Raider with Dissi, Razorwing with DL and cannon. Point 4 was in tree cover in their deployment. Point 3 is their closest and behind boxes from our point of view. Point 2 was our closest and was behind some boxes from their point of view.
The point in our deployment zone was in tree cover, and is point 1.
Secondary is to action a troop unit and score if they still hold it at the start of the next round. 4 points, one in each deployment zone, close to each deployment zone.
We played the forward advance mission or something like that.
These guys are really close friends and we all laugh about it and help each other out. I beat the Khorne player in 8th, when he fielded a Thousand Son army. I am salty about my 2000 pt loss in 9th due to the shear rate of fire of bloody robots when locked down in melee, but eh, I am not a great player.
I have lost to Tau and AdMech before in 8th, and AdMech in 9th, and I dont really mind the 8th losses at all.
Across from us was my AdMech friend (also his second game) and the khorne player (also first game). This was my second game of 9th, and the first for my Tau game partner. If one team, probably the team which goes second, gets pushed off a point, or has a point contested, and the other team is able not quite pushed off their point, thats it. Scoring primary VPs at the top of each players round. They were more shocked than we were, and it left a really bitter feeling in everyones mouths. Because rather than my opponents being close enough to catch us, they were actually 30 points ahead, and had been for ages. Top of turn 5, we thought we would quickly compare VPs to see if it mattered if the last surviving remnants of the khorne bloodletter bomb succeeded in their charge vs my kabalites, or if I and my ally were too far ahead. I played a really fun 1000 point game with 3 others, where we teamed up in two teams of 500 points.
