Adeptus_Mechanicus vs tyranid battle report

The other day was able to play a great game of 40k using my tyrannids vs my friends Adeptus_Mechanicus army . It was the first time id ever seen them in action . The army is super elite and puts out a ton of damaging fire power at long ranges . The mission we rolled up was the relic . I moved up the center under withering weapon fire . He really put a hurt on my army . Thanks to lots of monsterous creatures and great dice rolling I was able to keep the fight up . Game went for the full random 7 turns finally pulling off a victory with line breaker , first blood and capturing the relic . By no means was the Adeptus_Mechanicus any easy army to fight . Very impressed with them . Till next time enjoy the pics

Flames of war Vietnam battle !

The other day . My friend and I played some flames of war veitnam . Love the setting and always enjoy playing it . I used an American infantry company vs his NVA infantry company . I deployed in the center for this " ambush mission " and had to take two objectives . Quickly I was surrounded and attacked . I constantly moved my forces aggressively trying to break through . No matter what the NVA stayed dug in and held there own . I assaulted in with a armored cav squadron of three Sheridan tanks and 113s . Horrible mistake RPGs began shooting everywhere destroying the whole squad to my horror . Then my advance continued to slowed down as two enemy companies just showered me with rifle and RPGs . A platoon of t54 showed up two my rear , lucky a cobra helichopter kept them busy . In the end I lost to a determined enemy . Great game and worth trying out for any one that's a fan of flames of war and interested in the period . Next up I'm working on terrain and minatures for the Nam brown water navy supplement coming out . Every one till next time , stay safe and happy gaming !!!

Warhammer 40k and more 40k !

Ive been building and painting like a mad man . All types of minatures for all types ofdifferent game systems . But as for gaming I've been playing a lot of 40k . A good friend of mine has started a campaign for the sheild of Baal leviathan setting , for 40k . The story takes place in  a imperial sector over run with a giant hive fleet of tyranids . In the campaign there's blood angel space marines which we easily switched to my buddy joes crimson fist and imperial guard . My other friend bob also brought his grey knights into the fray . So we played to battles . First was a 3000 point game on a jungle plant where a civilian colony had been over run by Xenos . The battle was costly to the grey knights , but they were able to  squeeze out a victory . Next battle was a 5000 battle in a city . The imperial guard of the Astra militaruim rushed to secure a space port as a living tide of aliens assault through . Them to were able to hold long on enough to secure victory . But many lives were lost to attacking tyrannids . Great games , a lot of fun . The new leviathan campaign books are beautiful . With great stories and missions worth picking up . Till next blog post enjoy these pics . Also stop by my YouTube channel Matt Rendar for little hobby updates . Till next time happy gaming ...
