Breaking All The Rules - Nomads Vs CHA

by Zamiel » June 17th, 2015, 6:19 am

Last week I rocked my new and hardly very well prepared at all Caledonian Highlander Army out against Nomads. Breaking all of my rules about using painted models for my gaming.

300 points. Supremacy as written in the N3 rulebook.

I know it's not accurate, but it's pretty close to what I was up against.

I won the Liuetenant roll off and chose to take second turn, the Nomads took their table edge and bade me deploy first.

Setup:
Image
Iguana and Alguacil - although she looks a lot like a Moderator.
Image
A bunch of other stuff.

Image
McMurrough and a pack of Cameronians.Image
Wallace, Galwegian link, Isobel McGregor, and some Camo markers.

Turn One:
The Zero on the guard tower picked out a Galwegian to Target, and the whole link responded with a burst of fire. Even pistols carry are a threat when they're wielded by a five man link. Between them, the Galwegians, Wallace and Isobel managed to splash the Zero. Unfortunately, the actual target of the FO lost his Face to Face roll. Maybe I should have chosen Dodge...
Image
Hearing the distinctive rumble of a missile launching, the Galwegians scattered. Again the poor sap who'd been Targeted failed his FtF roll. The Galwegians spread out as much as they could, Wallace dove forward, out of the missile's blast zone, but into LoF of the Iguana, which peppered him with bullets.
The Nomads continued killing off my exposed troopers, and my dice continued to spite me with almost every roll.
We made a mess of the Console hacking for the scenario, thinking hackers could use their ZoC.

My Active turn saw the Cameronians try pushing forward and lobbing smoke grenades... with a modified PH of 19 due to how close I was dropping the smoke, I should have launghed this in. Instead I couldn't roll above 8, and the Nomads kept shooting the grenades out of my poor wee doggies' hands.
My Cateran's tried their damnedest to do something useful, but the dice were against me at every turn.
By the Guard Tower, a winter camo'd SAS poked his head around the corner and unleashed a Chain Rifle at the Custodier, only to be taken out by enemy fire...

Over in the forest on my left, Uxia McNiell slunk forward, selected AP rounds and emptied a couple of blasts into the Iguana.

Turn Two:
The dust and Tag components settled, Uxia claimed a kill, only to be rudely interrupted by a cutting retort from the Iguana Operator. Something to the effect of "Burst 4, Bee-yotch!" Caught up in the gloating, McNiell was a moment too late taking cover again, and was taken out of action.

The Wildcat tried to drop in behind my Cateran, intending to take him out and Secure my HVT. Even with hackers on the ground feeding him up to the second guidance data he landed off target, in sight of the Cateran, whose yell or "Pull!" as he swung the rifle to bear brough out the competitive side of my last remaining SAS. Between them they dealt with the Hellcat handily.

The remaining Galwegians, Cameronians, and Caterans were whittled down by Nomad firepower, and soon enough all I had left alive on the battlefield was a lone SAS in the forest. Definitely in Retreat, and with the hour getting on for far too late, we left off there and packed up.
