====Angry Necrons vs Angry CSM==== *CAD: Destroyer Lord w. Warscythe (Warlord) in 5 Canoptek Wraiths. 20 Necron Warriors w. Monolith. 10 Necron Warriors w. Night Scythe. 3 Canoptek Scarabs. 3 Canoptek Scarabs. 3 Canoptek Spyders. 1 C´tan Shard of the Deceiver (250 pts). 1 Transcendent C´tan (Knight-like LoW 400 pts) *Wordbearers CAD: Dark Apostle (Warlord) in 20 Chaos Space Marines with close combat weapons 2 plasma guns. Dark Apostle in 20 CSMs w. CC weapons 2 plasma guns. 20 CSMs w. CC weapons 2 plasma guns. 35 Cultists with 2 flamers. 2 Forgefiends both w. 3 ectoplasm cannons. 1 Maulerfiend. *'''Deployment:''' One of the two CSM units with a Dark Apostle got mark of Khorne and 2+ Sv, the other got mark of Khorne and +1 WS and I. Remaining CSM unit got mark of Slaanesh. Cultists got mark of Nurgle. I deployed my army 18" away from his because my units had infiltrate. *'''Turn 1:''' Transcendent C´tan killed 27 MoN Cultists. Rest of my army shot a couple of CSMs and moved closer. My opponent did one wound to my Trans C´tan, killed a very small amount of Warriors and killed a single Wraith. *'''Turn 2:''' Transcendent C´tan exploded his Maulerfiend. Warriors killed some more 2+ Sv CSMs. Wraiths and Destroyer Lord assaulted his 2+ Sv CSMs, killed a bunch and took a little damage in return. 9 Scarabs (6 of which had been produced by Spyders) killed one of his Forgefiends, spyders and the last 3 Scarabs destroyed his other Forgefiend. CSMs with MoS assaulted the 20 Necron Warrior a few of the Necron Warriors died. His remaining cultists killed my 8/9 of my swarms in the big unit. *'''Turn 3:''' Transcendent C´tan did a wound to himself in the shooting phase and assaulted his second unit of CSMs w. MoK and Apostle. Having no real way to damage my C´tan in close combat and only 3 marines engaged with my Destroyer Lord before combat and my Spyders assaulting one of the CSM units. In close combat of my turn he surrendered. *'''Conclusion:''' The CSM list wasn´t capable of abusing the C´tan weakness, they still weren´t too powerful, I was very lucky to destroy so many of his cultists turn 1. The maulerfiend was kind of expected, it should have gotten away since it would have lost close combat as well. The deceiver did very little because it´s so slow and even with Infiltrate it only did shooting, at which point I might as well have brought more ranged units instead. I think both new C´tan types are fun and fairly balanced taking into account I was fairly lucky with the Trans C´tan. Word Bearers tactics seemed pretty cool, about on par with what SMs get with their tactics I think. The Apostles didn´t achieve much with their blessings, but 2+ Sv on 20 models would have been a killer against any army but the Angry Necrons. I think they are worth it against certain armies, but certainly not Angry Necrons. Forgefiends weren´t very effective, but I didn´t bring a lot of models this game and had a huge deployment zone which allowed me to spread out to the point where he could get no more than 3 hits/cannon. Infiltrate certainly also limited their ability to lay down firepower on my Warriors.
