RS Imperial Special Weapons Dalek vs Morvellans


Rogue Stars players- you see all these power armoured super-armed heavies.  Do they ignore the points limits?

Power armour is essentially a small vehicle.  As such, it's a magnet for every weapon going--.





What again, I hear you cry?  Where is the famed diversity?  the unusual figures plucked from obscurity to mince wincingly upon the stage?  You can fork right orf for a start.  Normal service will be resumed.

I have a plan fermenting that will blossom into a cacophony of evil plotting.

But first, the comfy chair!


5 Morvellan constructs plus plasma rifle = 215. (Again)

The Game.  This time Tony took the Morvellans and got the initiative.


I sneak on - leader first, Tony!


I take the initiative and build forward.


It's coming through the pass-.


Hull down, but head mounted weapon usable.


Don't get in front arc-.



Working around the flank..


Daleks advance and destroy! Daleks advance and destroy! Daleks advance and destroy!


No.2.


Plasma weapon gets in close!


Supported!


Hit!


Support, a bit late--.


Morvellan goes for cover while plasma gunner tries to finish the HW.


Getting a bit heated here-.


Plasma gunner is shot down.


Cover helps the Morvellan survive and win.


The Black Top is flanked and destroyed!



Last Dalek standing--.  That was fast and brutal!


The HW took a LOT of punishment mostly resulted in pins!


Game 2 Usual swapsies.



Interesting V deployment.  I go for a line.



First contact, plasma gunner is on point.


HW advances on the front and breaks my line.




The HW is well positioned and my plasma gunner is in a world of hurt.



HW lays down a hail of fire, takes out second in line.




Hunting the HW- a lucky hit!  It was well placed to cheese all my forces.




Plasma gunner wins!


Now the Morvellans can move up.


Plasma gunner goes down to a long shot.


3 vs 2.


The Black Top does a flank run and comes up behind--.



Now the odds are better.


The outflanker is outflanked-.




D (again) recovers enough to get up-


That takes the pressure off C who exterminates-.


A very, very narrow Dalek win.  I think I've got these spot-on.  Very happy with these series of games.  I hope you've enjoyed them.  More, bigger and better proper campaign later.

And now for something completely different.
