Today saw a pitched battle between Marshall (IG) and Jim (SM) in an annihilation battle at ~1700 points. The battle took place at Time warp comics and the terrain was the big and small hills and some ruined buildings.
It started out with troops making maneuvers for the best positions to do the most damage on both sides. Jim's side went first and since the range wasn't quite there they mainly moved up. During Marshall's turn he was able to land some hits and cause casualties to the marines with some of his long range attacks. In this game Jim was able to keep his land raider and dreadnought going past the first turn and Librarian Sobel also managed to stay out of trouble for awhile. Once in the center of the board both sides inflicted heavy damage to each other with Marshall knocking out Jim's Land raider as well as most of his command squad, tactical and an assault squad. Jim was able to destroy numerous units of infantry as well as a punisher tank and the main armament of one of the Chimera variants (can't remember the name and don't have the codex in front of me). By the end of the battle it looked like the IG had won the day but when kill points were counted it came out to a DRAW!
It was a good battle and everyone had fun.
