Can a Brotha get a Six??

After a long time away from hanging out with friends and playing games I actually came out today to play a game of 40K! I hadn't been up to it after a recent doubles tourney in September left me a bit bleh. Getting sick and other life stuff added to it. I have to credit my "come back" lol, to my man Mike from:

Psybilliah's 2 cents

Mike had been calling me up asking what I was up to, when I was going to play some 40K and all that. Not just him though, lots of friends. Anyway I just had no interest. Mike called me and said he had a gift for me. Naturally me being a brother and always suspicious of "the man";-) , I was a little apprehensive of what the gift was. Mike comes by my house the other night and presents me with this:

My own custom dice!!! Yeah! I'm playing now! I was really excited even though I am still not 100% and coughing up phlegm, I was determined to put these to use this weekend

. So I am playing COD MOW2 with another bud named Greg. I told him on ventrillo that I'd meet him at the GW store for a game. We always have fun games. I have never lost to Greg but he has been getting close. The last game was a draw and he beat a friend of mine who I think is better than me.

Quick battle rep follows.

Woodland Rangers (Sallies) Vs. Blood Angels


Mission: 3 Objectives, Dawn of !@#&*@^# War

Greg deployed 2 markers near one side and I one. He got to go first. I deployed nothing instead chose to walk everything on. Here is Greg on his turn 1. The Polish hit-man ready for anything!

Bring it!!!

Vindicators oh my!

 

I'm unstoppable!

Rangers take some casualties

Oh wait did those Melta guns kill those Vindies?

Mephiston Vs. Land Raider?

(blurry) Termies Vs Mephiston Lol?

Death Company and Blood Talon Dread Vs Termies = :(

Marcus Silvanus (Vulcan) takes care of the DC!

Need to get that dread dead...

Guarding the Objective. BA=2 WR=0

Need to get there to contest/steal objective. A brotha needs a 6!

Game ends on turn 5. Final Scrum!

Bad difficult terrain roll to assault them there caused me only to be contested. :( At this point Greg has my only objective contested and he has one solid as seen above. I was hoping for a six for the diff terrain roll but I got a 2!!! There was a "crater" where a dread used to be so we knew I had to cross it to get to the guys. Not shown in pictures.

BA wins 1-0 on objectives. Congrats to Greg!  I immobilized both my Land raiders this game too. I may have to invest in a dozer blade or something! My new dice did roll very well. I didn't have to twin-link too much during the game. I was satisfied with the performance. I actually had fun. A lot of my friends came out and it was a blast getting to go out again and play some games!
