Played a modified version of my 750 point list. Was looking for more armour penetration as the last 750pt game ended badly as I couldn't pop his SMurfs.
Warboss - Eavy armour, cybork body, slugga, choppa
Trukkboys x9 - burna; nob - power klaw, choppa; trukk - red paint, rokkit
Slugga Boyz x20 - rokkits x3; nob - power klaw, choppa
Slugga Boyz x20 - rokkits x3; nob - power klaw, choppa
Killa Kan - rokkit
He ran:
Falcon tank
Eldritch(?)
Some sort of retinue with the eldritch
2 units of guardians
as my opponent was just returning to 40k we chose to play an old school "cleanse" mission for victory points. not the 4th edition version with board quarters and such (perhaps i would have come out better if we had).
Turn 1 - attached my warboss to my trukkboy mob in the trukk. I ran the trukk behind what i had hoped was some good cover marched the boyz forward. the kan screening a unit of boyz (my rokkit boyz poking around from the sides of the kan.
he jumped his tank around cover and popped my trukk. (this would put the monkey in my strategic wrench). i made all my saves on my boyz and my warboss.
Fast forward, i made both of his guardian squads flee off the board, but not without taking numerous shooting casualties. his falcon took many hits and stunned his cred for about 1/2 the game, but could not penetrate it.
Conclusion: i needed to get into cc faster. i should have moved my boyz behind the killer kan further left and screened my trukk behind them from the falcon, this way i would have been able to overrun his gun line sooner and avoid more shooting casualties.
