View Full Version : Christmas 40K Aod Final Round
Dark Lord Foamy
26th November 2011, 19:21
Yes it’s that time of your when the religious celebrate different things, the businesses try to drain more money out of you and people go and cut down trees to stick in their lounge for 2 weeks before discarding them afterwards.
So time for the annual Christmas AOD and we’re going for a 40k themed one again as well *looks at the forum name* would be a bit silly having a bloodbowl themed one as that would just be bloodbowl.
So onto the arena rules
For this arena each player makes a entry consisting of 600pts of models however you can only use 400 pts of them at a time which you will have 24 hours to do so after each fight has been announced.
For the fighting part of the arena all of your men are lined up in a rank 6” away from your opponent whose entry is also lined up in a rank. Casualties are removed with the cheapest being first and then the most expensive last.
You both then shoot at each other at the same time and then as long as both of you have some models left it goes into assault where it follows standard initiative order. For things like furious charge that activate when assaulting both players gain this on the first round of assault but not in future rounds. If at the end of the assault both players have men left it goes back to shooting and then keeps on going until one player remains.
Once only one player remains or you both manage to kill each other at the same time in shooting or in assault both players are awarded points equal to the cost of the opponents force they destroyed.
For template, small blast and large blast weapons they get 1 hit, 3 hits and 5 hits on the enemy rank though the blasts can scatter so be careful with them as we have seen a Vindicator blow itself up before
For the entries there are no restrictions bar they must be 600pts, be from the latest codex, contain at least 5 models and no forge world allowed either.
Now as this is Christmas there is a present for the winner
*Summons a minion to bring over the present*
What’s in it? Well I’m not saying but if you are hoping for a Necron Monolith, Tyranid Carnifex, Blood Angel Stormraven or Ork Battle Wagon then you’ll probably be disappointed. However if you are hoping for Necron Immortals, Tyranid Warrior Brood, Death Company Squad or Ork Nobz then you’ll probably enjoy it.

Standard AOD rules for them need to have 10 marine for the free weapons, 1 big shoota for every 10 ork boyz etc.

Since we can only use 400 of the allowed 600 points, the extra 200 is for swapping out between matches, right? Also, you mentioned we get however many points we kill, do we get to add more points to what we had before or how does that work? Also, do our losses get replaced after each match or do we keep going with what we have making replacements with the points we get?

Question 1- Yes the 200pts is swapped out between rounds if you want.
Question 2- That is simply your score from how many of the other players entries you destroy and the points are added each round until the end.
Question 3- Your entry stays the same and any killed are automatically restored at the end of the round.

You have a codex don't you man? Pick a random assortment of units from a codex, throw em in, so long as they total no more than 600pts and comprise of 5 or more models.... I mean, i always enter for a laugh and to try out some funny combinations from random codexes (coughs psyker storm)

That should be 5. My head is really not with it.

7th December 2011, 05:26
Don't you just hate it when your internet browser crashes after hitting submit on a post? Yeah annoying thing to happen in the first round but thankfully I still had the 1st post in my clipboard so knew what casulties had been done
Fight 1
Pox vs Pyro
Pyro's shooting gunned down the acolytes in the first round while Pox did sod all. Assault the wraiths were reduced to ld2 by the grenades and cut down 3 crusaders only for the entire necron force to then be wiped out with the wraiths phase shifeters making only 1 save however the dreadknight caused one of the barges to explode and catch pox's entry and killed the last crusader, the five assasins and the purifier. Whoops.
Pox got 380pts
Pyro got 204pts 119 of those were from the explosion.
Fight 2
SGS vs mephiston_2k
SGS couldn't make a armour save for pretty much the entire round losing all of this marines bar the icon bearer from shooting killing only one assault marine in return. But the prince and terms made up for it killing all the BA bar the pred in the 1st round of combat though the priest did bring down the icon bearer marine. The pred got the chainfist termy in round 2 before the prince smashed it into bits.
SGS got 395pts
Mephiston got 190pts
Fight 3
Mali vs McTicTac
Mali's shooting started off well with the tesla cannons slaying all the acolytes however everything else promptly missed or failed to wound though MC Tic Tac's shooting just bounced off the crons. Sadly the necrons never saw past the assault phase as a combined hammerhand and might of titan from the libby saw the death cult assassins wipe out all of the necrons before they even knew what hit them... only for one of the barges to explode and kill 6 of the death cult assassins. Note to other players be wary of the barges when they go boom.
MCTictac got 400pts
Mali got 114pts
Fight 4
Orky vs Doohicky
The kannons fired and got the death company and one dread... sadly the other dread got into combat with it's talons and cut down every last grot bar the 2 that got gunned down.
Doohicky got 400pts
The orks got 225pts
Fight 5
Loner vs Scythes
The scripts performed extremly well the sternguard managed to bring down 10 of them however the scripts gunned down 4 of the sternguards allowing the veterans with lasguns to finish them off and the melta guns to cut down 2 terms. The 3 remaining terms cursed their I as they were drowned by mass guardsmen attacks.
Loner got 400pts
Scythes got 40pts
Fight 6
Sneggy vs Cames
The fire dragons had a lot of fun in store for the sisters and managed to melt the crusaders, flags and 4 repentias in their first volley and then they beat the crap out of the survivors in combat. Poor Cames.
Sneggy got 344pts
Cames got 0pts
End of round 1
So interesting results so far though poor scythes and cames. Oh well lets see if the next round changes their fortunes.
Round 2
Fight 1
Loner vs Sneggy
Fight 2
Pox vs MC Tic Tac
Fight 3
Cames vs Doohicky
Fight 4
Pyro vs the orks
Fight 5
Mali vs Mephiston
Fight 6
SGS vs Scythes
So make changes if you need to bar Sneggy and the orks for obvious reasons.

And their was me thinking Might of Titan only affected Mr libby. (does it not say the libby's strength increases to 10? not the unit?) so the henchmen won't benefit from it. Same thing for quickening, might of ancients, activating force weapon etc (with IC having to activate their force weapons seperatly from the unit.) It is all quite specific. Or we might as well have DOOM who regains wounds by blasting his foes give that ability to the unit and have ten wound stealers running around!

So time for round 2 where more blood is split and some lucky players entrails will be used as tinsle around the main entrance.
Fight 1
Loner vs Sneggy
The fire dragons started of well by promptly frying 15 of the conscripts but the guard returned fire and managed to cut down 10 of the dragons with their shooting. Combat proved that even with a armour save the scripts wern't very durable with the dragons beating the crap out of 12 of them however the fire dragons wern't able to brag long before the guard beat the crap out of 7 of them. Finally the guard brought down the rest of the dragons though they did fry the remaining scripts.
Sneggy gets 120pts
Loner gets 400pts
Fight 2
Pox vs MC Tic Tac
After both inquistiors stopped yelling Heretic at each other after about 15 minutes the forces engaged with despite his larger numbers Tic Tac managing to gun down 2 of Pox's acolytes who managed to gun down 5 of Tic Tac's in return. The psycho grenades are clearly from the same stock pile as both reduced the units ld to 2 though thankfully the powers were used first though the Libby stuffed using quicksilver he did get might off and despite the libby's hood the Purifier got off his cleansing flame and 13 of the acolytes were chargrilled. For the combat proper it sadly went very badly for McTicTac who slew all of Pox's acolytes but the assassins cursed the storm shields the crusaders wielded and Pox's assassins cut down all bar the libby who bravely fought on crushing 1 crusader before taking the dreadnoughts fist straight to the face.
Pox gets 397pts
MCtictac gets 55pts
Fight 3
Cames vs Doohicky
Shooting
The lone squishy model in Doohicky's force got very barbequed by the pentient engines and the crusaders held firm against the BA shooting with thier shields taking all of the damage. Combat the dreads charged in splatting the crusaders and the confessor however their attacks reduced to 4 they only managed to shake one of the pentients who strucks back however they only managed to wreck one dread due to some very poor to hit rolls. However despite the 2 melta guns and more attacks from the dreads the pentient held in till they could strike again and promptly tore off all the weapons on one of the remaining dreads. The undamaged dread was not pleased with this and melted one of the pentients in the shooting and tore another one apart in CC. The last pentient however continued to fight and finished off the damaged dread and caused the final one to explode.
Doohicky got 295pts
Cames got 395pts
Fight 4
Pyro vs the orks
The kannons lined up and opened fire and the lone wraith... didn't even survive the first shell. One of the annilation barges got the shit shaken out of it and then cursed being open-topped when the last shell penetrated it's shielding and wrecked it. Still the stalker's heat ray melted 2 of the guns and the barges scored 16 hits with their tesla destructors putting 11 of the guns out of commision and the gauss cannons chalking up another 2. Combat saw the stalker destroy 3 more guns and in the 2nd round of shooting the guns failed to dent the final barge and it and the stalker promptly finished them off.
Pyro gets 400pts
Orks get 130pts
Fight 5
Mali vs Mephiston
The poor scarabs were dealt with quickly with the assault marines dealing with one swarm and the last one being incinerated by the heavy flamers on the baal. The tanks assault cannons promptly fired and cut down both lords and Anrayr was wounded by the priests meltagun. However the baal then promptly fired upon the assault marines and cut down 3 with Anrayr whistling to himself as his arrow pierced the head of another marine and one of the lords also got back up having only suffered minimal damage from the assault cannons. The priest was a bit peeved with this though and using his lightning claw promptly tore through the lord but was then promptly cut down by Anrayr who also sliced through last assault marine and the razorback with his warscythe. The Baal fired everything and the necron lord and despite reducing him to 1 wound it was not and Anrayr promptly destroyed it with his scythe in the next CC phase.
Mali gets 400pts
Mephiston gets 210pts
Fight 6
SGS vs Scythes
The sternguard had a much better showing this time gunning down all 6 of the the normal chaos marines with the only casualty they suffered being from a melta gun shot. The chaos forces promptly got revenge in cc cutting down all of the stern guard but failed to dent the storm shields off the assault terms who cursed Tzeentch as while they finished off the marines with no issue the terms failed to give way. Shooting did nothing but the prince and terms cut down 2 of the assault terms in combat but sadly Tzeentch had turned his back for a second and when he turned out the 2 chaos terms had been splatted by the hammers. 5 rounds of combat then went by between the 3 remaining assault terms and the prince however despite suffering 2 wounds the prince emerged the victor mainly due to warp time.
SGS gets 400pts
Scythes gets 260pts
So some mixed results with the grey knight fight coming down the wrong power failing and the right power going off in the end.
Anyway round 3
Fight 1
Scythes vs Doohicky
Fight 2
SGS vs Mali
Fight 3
Pox vs Orks
Fight 4
Mctictac vs Pyro

Mephiston vs Sneggy

see if the deamonhost does something interesting now Nurgle is in ascendency. Purfyer do his good ol purifying flame whilst Dreadknight is not going to waste any powers on the little grots but rely on his big strong armour to see the day through. Now to see if not ALL the squishy stuff gets killed by Kannons on the way in.

Fight 1
Scythes vs Doohicky
The blood angels charged in first the dreads guns unable to get past the terms shields so the combat would be decided in combat. The dreads struck first and gutted 4 of the terminators the terms struck back and splatted the death company however the terms thunder hammers only manage to stun and shake one of the dreads. The dreads proceeded to continue cutting down the terms until none were left with the only major damaged being one dread was very shaken and missing an arm.
Scythes gets 20pts
Doohicky gets 400pts
Fight 2
SGS vs Mali
The necrons strode forward the annilation barge letting loose with everything it had though all it did was cause lightning to jump between the 5 chaos marine for a few seconds. The marines returned fire the basic marines gunning down 1 swarm and the terms gunning down the other. However the necron lord with the phase shifter proved to be a annoying bugger and kept phasing as the prince, terms and marines tried to hit him. The lord and Anrayr laughed this and struck with their warscythes... only to get them stuck in the terms icon of Tzeentch. Deciding to go back to shooting each other for the moment the barge once again did the same thing and the lord just phased again. The prince failed to hit the lord again however the lord was then tackled by one of the marines and the other 4 then joined in on stomping repeatedly to stop him phasing out again. Anrayr took advantage of this and cut down 2 of the marines but stopped and turned when he saw the barge being cut in half by the chain fist wielding termy. Seeing he was out numbered Anrayr fired his arrow decapitating a marine and cutting down the last with his scythe before the being decapitated by the chain fist term.
SGS got 375pts
Mali got 75pts
Fight 3
Pox vs Orks
The kannons switch to frag rounds which blow away the acolytes and 3 of the crusaders though 2 of the kannons crew are cut down by their return volley. In combat most of the grots were incinerated by the purifier who went a bit overboard and his own head caught fire taking him out as well. The assassins promptly finished off the kannons crew.
Pox gets 400pts
Orks get 114pts
Fight 4
Mctictac vs Pyro
The stalker promptly melts two of the acolytes to mush and the return fire brought down 1 wraith. The grenades made the wraiths a bit scared of the acolytes but the wraiths coils allowed them to easily cut down 10 acolytes and the stalker stepping on another and it seems the wraiths have found the on switch for their shifters as only 2 were cut down by the grey knights return attacks. The stalker proceeded to melt more acolytes and the rest were cut down by the wraiths and it in combat however the remaining wraiths were cut down. The stalker continued to fight bringing down a assassin however blessed with might the assassins promptly sliced the power generator of the stalker causing it to detonate catching a assassin in the blast.
MCtictac gets 375pts

Fight 1

The necrons brought back the barges again which promptly proved their usefulness cutting down the marines and termies in one volley. The marines return volley managed to wound a wraith but not kill it and the poor prince was promptly strangled to death in CC before he could do a thing.
Pyro gets 400pts
SGS gets 0pts
Fight 2
Mephiston vs Cames
The crusaders once again proved that they don't how to use their storm fields not even surving the assault cannon volley from the tanks while the confessor was roasted. The pentients were bit a scared of the meltagun from the priest but it only managed to cause of their legs to sieze up and the pentients returned the favor by frying a assault marine and then completely tearing the blood angels apart in cc and causing both tanks to explode.
Cames gets 400pts
Mephiston gets 125pts
Fight 3
Pox vs Scythes
The sternguard came charging back into the arena to show the termies how it's done and promptly gunned down every last acolyte and suffered no casualties from the return shooting. Sadly however the inquistors psycho grenades caused the marines to start doubting each other though it didn't matter for the sternguard who were quickly gutted by the assassins the termies behind to fight amongst each other with only 2 resisting the affects but sadly both of them got splatted by the other termies. The death cult promptly finished the other 3 off the next phase.
Scythes gets 40pts
Pox gets 400pts
Fight 4
Doohicky vs TicTac
The blood angels charged forth gunning down 7 of the acotlyes looking forward to tearing the others apart... only to be taken out by the super powered Death Cult assassins. Sadly for poor Tic Tac however all 3 of the dreads exploded blowing away the acolytes as well as 4 of the assassins.
Tic Tac gets 395pts
Doohicky gets 148pts
Fight 5

some really interesting fights in this next round!
Fight 1: Doohicky vs Mephiston
BA's vs BA's! eek though my money is on Doohickey for this one.
Fight 2 Pox vs Sneggy
Strangely enough the first list I constructed was a fire dragon/farseer with guide combo but I figured it would struggle against hordes (like loners guardsmen!) hmmm maximum amount of crusaders needed for this one *hands out extra battery packs for their storm shields*
as for the fight take out the Inquisitor so he can have a cup o tea, and chuck in the purifier, crusader and daemonhost - and all is good.
Fight 3 Pyro vs Mali
Robot on Robot action! nearly nothing has WBB though which kinda surprised me, have no idea who will walk away less frazzled in this match up!
Fight 4 SGS vs Orks
Poor orkies, they won't know what hits them with all that 2+ armour!
Fight 5 Loner vs Tic Tac
Now this one has really caught my eye, it is like a heavyweight championship and Tic Tac is about the only person I can think of who has the numbers to really compete with loner on that front (though wondering if should lend him my purifyer...) Not sure who will win but it WILL be bloody indeed! and might be the biggest challenge loner has faced yet.
Fight 6 Scythes vs Cames
you know what this one is also a good close fight, might be in slight favour of Scythes with his storm shields, but then again...

Doohickys blood angels charged forward gunning down all of the assault marines while the priest wasn't looking however Mephistons Blood Angels easily cut down the death company and the combi-melta on the priest wrecked the first dread. The last Furioso got it's revenge tearing the priest in half. The dread then proceeded to immobilise the razorback with it's meltagun before tearing apart in combat however the Baal then immobilised the dread with it's assault cannons but sadly this caught the dreads attention and it reduced the Baal to molten slag.
Doohicky gets 400pts
Mephiston gets 225pts

Mali's crons charged forth though the scarabs were quickly blasted away by the barge and the lords were promptly eaten by the wraiths with Anrayn being wounded but the lord struck buck only for a wraith to phase out of the way of the blows and Anrayn to find himself facing the barges destructor which promptly zapped him.

SGS vs Orks
The kannons open fire blowing away the marines and the chain saw termy while the bolter rounds bounce off the kannons armour bar the one unlucky grot who take it to the face.

be funny if loner loses to the kannons and all their blast funs but kinda doubt it, in fact not even sure i can stand up to those huge amount of numbers myself *starts to doubt his teeny tiny force a bit.* Just glad Chenkov is not kicking around with his ratling sniper buddies - about the last things I want to see are snipers ruining my dreadknights day!

The sisters charged the grey knights line the pentients reducing the acolytes to ash while the knights return fire brings down a crusader. As the 2 forces met the assassins managed to cut down one crusader however the last crusader faces off against both the dread knight and dreadnought but using his shield deflects the blows from both of the machines though he is then cut down by pox's crusaders along with the confessor. Sadly despite his effforts the pentients only manage to get 1 crusader and while the purifier only stuns a engine which is ignored the pentients don't survive the dreadnought and Dread knights next attacks though one explodes catching 2 crusaders in the blast.
Cames gets 53pts
Pox gets 380pts
Fight 2
Mali vs Doohicky
The blood angels charge forth their bolter shells cutting down a swarm while another is reduced to nothing by a dreads melta. Anrakyr lets loose with his arrow however the shot misses and goes through the arena wall, through the game section, through the fantasy section and impales a unlucky ultramarine in the general 40k section... that's the only problem with missing with something that has infinite range. However before the lords can make a comment the dreads pounce on them and promptly tear all 3 lords apart with their talons.
Doohicky gets 375pts
Mali gets 0pts
Fight 3
Mephiston vs Pyro
The blood angels surged forward the wraith not able to survive the volley of shots and flames being thrown at it though it survived enough to prevent the blood angels from being able to target the barges. Said barges promptly opened fire cutting down 3 of the blood angels while the triarch finished the last 2 assualt marines off and stepped on the priest in CC. However the necrons didn't a chance to celebrate as the baal preds assault cannons let loose and thanks to their rending ammo wrecked both of the barges which had just finished off the razorback. Sadly for the pred it's end soon came when a blast from the Stalkers heat ray cut it neatly in 2 pieces.

The guardsmen returned fire but most of the shots bounced off the kannons armour though 4 of the crew were killed and the meltas took care of 3 kannons. 15 of the grots crew were killed by the guardsmen in combat though they did get 4 of them back.

The grenades from the inquisitor also cause the guard to start laughing at the whole situation allowing the assasins to cut down the infatry platoon and a veteran squad while the purifier and inquised finished off 3 more.

The blood angels charged forward gunning down 4 of the acolytes whose return fire just bounced off the death company and the dread deciding to melt someone in the crowd. The two furioso's tore the acolytes apart in a flurry of blood taking a rather large amount of time on the one with the Doohicky mask on, the crusaders who forgot to their shields on (not one save) and the death cult assassins who had just finished with the death company. The dread and dreadknight teamed up on one dread immobilising it and ripping off the arm with the melta gun on it however the other dread was a bit peeved with this and melted the grey knight dread to molten slag and tore the knight apart with it's claws... though unfortunately for the BA dreads as the dreadknight fell to the ground it's hammer arm swung and took them both out.

Well looks like I'm well and truly out of the running for this. Maybe I'll be able to teach Loner's Vets a lesson in how to lose for once though!
Same again please.
I would offer you a chance, though I still might be able to win, so I won't make it easy for you. :P

Fight 1
Orks vs Scythes
The kannons let loose with their kannons and did the same amount of damage to the terms as if they had just hit them with a rolled up newspaper. The grots in CC didn't fair much better and terms just stepped on 15 of them in response. The second volley proved 100% more effective getting 1 terminator though another 12 grots went squish. The grots improved again getting 2 terminators and losing another 6. Finally... the grots were finished off.
Scythes gets 400pts
Orks get 120pts
Fight 2
Cames vs Tic Tac
Well cames managed to burn 3 acolytes to a crisp... that's all he did before the knights got into combat and tore him apart but it's something.
Cames gets 12pts
Tic Tac gets 385pts
Fight 3
Pox vs Mephiston
The acolytes charged forth... only to be promptly gunned down... the crusaders charged forth deflected every single assault cannon shot from the two tanks. The death cult assassins charged forth and killed all the squishy angels. The Dread and Dreadknight charged forth and tore the vehicles in half though the pred did explode and take out the crusaders.
Pox gets 400pts
Mephiston gets 70pts
Fight 4

The barges let loose on the eldar frying 14 of them... the dragons then promptly reduced all the crons to molten slag though one of the barges did explode taking 3 more dragons with it.

Mali gets 272pts

The barges were able to kill 10 of the scripts but sadly the wraiths were lasgunned to death and both barges went boom with one catching the guard and taking out anothyer 16 scripts.
Pyro gets 104pts
Loner gets 360pts
Fight 6
SGS vs Doohicky
The chaos marines open fire and do jack shit the blood angels open fire and do jack shit. The prince eats all of the death company, the furioso's eat the normal chaos marines and one of the furioso's loses his melta arm to the chain fist term. The prince shakes the hell out of the damage dread while the dreads curse the icon of tzeentch while the chain fist term also shakes the damaged dread. Sadly the chain fist term forgot about the other dread and takes a melta gun to the face. The prince finishes off the damage dread by tearing it's other arm off and smashing it with it while the oher furioso finishes off the last 2 terms. The prince immobilises the last dread and stuns it before causes one more blow causing it to explode though the dreads get a bit of revenge as the prince is blinded as bit of shrapnel goes into his right eye.
SGS gets 350pts
Doohicky gets 255pts

Loner vs Doohicky
For some reason I figured this had already been done. Now this should be interesting indeed considering what Mr Doohickey did to me.
time to re-think when it comes to SGS though.

Fight 1
Orks vs Mali
The barges surged forward and brought down 7 of the ork kannons but sadly the necrons did not survive the first volley from the orks kannons.
The orks get 390pts
Mali gets 140pts
Fight 2
Mephiston vs Scythes
The blood angels let loose with everything they had on the terms with their fire power cutting 3 of them down. However in CC their attacks bounced off the terminators armour and their thunder hammers quickly splatted the marines and stunned the hell out of the razorback. The predator let loose another volley cutting down another term but this was not enough to cause both tanks to be destroyed though the resulting fireballs from the 2 exploding vehicles did catch another term.
Scythes gets 400pts
Mephiston gets 200pts
Fight 3
Sneggy vs Tic Tac
The fire dragons let loose and manage to fry 17 of the acolytes whose return fire got 7 of the dragons in return. Meanwhile the libby *BOOM* whose head just exploded failed to get off quickening but did get off might of the ancients and while the dragons finished off the acolytes they themselves were gutted by the death cult.
Sneggy gets 292pts
MCTictac gets 400pts
Fight 4
Loner vs Doohicky
The guardsmen let loose with everything they had but sadly the death company soaked up all their fire bar 1 melta shot which simply shaked one of the dreads. Ohh the screams that followed were not pleasant as only 5 of the veterans remained when the dreads were finished. The vets and dreads fired with 4 veterans being cutdown but the dreads taking all 5 of the melta hits with 2 downing the first the last vet celebrated his victory... right until he heard the cough and saw the last dread was immobilised, shaken and missing his left arm but still had a claw left and was in CC range. The veteran scream like a little girl as he was given the dread tornado wedgie.
Doohicky gets 395pts
Loner gets 225pts
Fight 5
Pox vs SGS
Shooting chaos 10 acolytes Pox 0
Combat the grenades all Pox to auto hit the marines who are promptly shreaded by the death cult assassins bar the prince who gets fisted by a dread knight. Pity he's not a Slaanesh worshipper really might have enjoyed it.
Pox gets 390pts
SGS gets 40pts
Fight 6
Pyro vs Cames
The barges fire and splat all the squishy not pentient engine sisters though one wraith is chargrilled by the engines. Sadly 2 of the engines fine being open topped has it's downsides when they are wrecked by the wraiths though the last gets a wraith before being blasted to pieces by the barges the next shooting phase.

*gives Doohickey a beer* that was epic! nigh on 60 models killed in combat from 2 models - well done!
right now to put the full force of the Radical Inquisitor Poxious against Mali and his evil robot men to see if we can get a clean sweep this year, and then start plotting the next AoD shenanigans. (don't think will use GK's again, got some other ideas want to try.)

Fight 1
Pox vs Mali
The barges slowly took aim at Pox's forces and let loose the acolytes, daemonhost, servitors and 1 of the crusaders being torn apart by their tesla and gauss weapons with the return fire damaging a swarm but not enough to stop it. However in combat the most dreaded thing Pox feared appeared... HIS AOD CURSE causing both the purifier and dreadknight to fail to use their powers. The assassins struck and managed to get the swarms and one of the lords however the last lord refused to drop surviving everything Pox threw at him and when the lord struck back 2 of the crusaders dropped. Things went worse for Pox as the next round saw the remaining crusaders, assassins and purifier go splat. The dreadknight tried his best to deal with the last lord but his phase shifter held strong and continued to do so for 3 rounds of combat until the barges finally brought down the grey knight machine.
Mali gets 393pts
Pox gets 120pts
Fight 2
Pyro vs Doohicky
Pyro's barges have a bit of trouble with the company and only manage to gun down 2 of them and the wraiths shifters are clearly malfunctioning as 3 of them are gunned down. The last wraith proceeds to do nothing while the dreads tear it apart and shake one of the barges. The last barge puts up a brave defence but accomplishes nothing and both barges are then wrecked by the dreads meltas.
Pyro gets 40pts
Doohicky gets 360pts
Fight 3
SGS vs Loner
The chaos forces raced forward their bolters gunning down 8 of the conscripts however the guard return fire left the daemon prince as the only thing standing and he only managed to squish 4 scripts before getting butted to death by lasguns.
SGS gets 48pts
Loner gets 390pts
FIght 4

Well the blood angels got 8 of the kannons. They then got blown up but still.

MCtictac's death cult assassins slice the terms into ribbons... bar the one who got shot by a acolyte.
MCtictac gets 400pts
Scythes gets 0pts
Fight 6
Sneggy vs Cames
The fire dragons first volley quickly roasted the not vehicle sisters however they soaked up all the melta fire leaving the engines free to roast 3 dragons. However in combat the dragons still proved a threat destroying 2 of the engines though one did explode taking 6 dragons with it and the other engine brought down 2 more dragons. Sadly the engine only managed to fry one more dragon before being wrecked.
Cames gets 176pts
Sneggy gets 385pts

So with his 9 victories, 1 draw and 1 loss that 1 loss I think defintely had the influence of the dice gods Pox is the winner. As promised there is a prize so Pox let me know your e-mail address via PM and I'll send you the 25 pound Games Workshop gift voucher.
As for the next AOD it will start next year and is one of my twist AOD's and if your not sure what they are basically I reveal 50% of the rules for sign ups but once sign ups are in I reveal the other 50% and you then have to make a entry with those new rules added and this one should be interesting.

30th December 2011, 09:54
Haha. That went better than expected. My entry really wasnt any good at all. Still it did manage to bring the winner his one and only loss which is cool. Defo need to come up with a better entry next time. Grats to you poxy. Spend the voucher well. :D

30th December 2011, 18:25
my word! seems that not only did the famous Pox AOD curse strike but the dice gods also kicked me in the nadgers and stole my wallet.
I would like to thank Doohickey for without his help i could not have won, and now i need to sacrifice some goats and/or conscripts to the dice gods to appease their wrath for the next AoD.
voucher could well get me the new chaos termies been dreaming of to act as Typhus' bodyguard.
