Campaign Battle - Crimson Fists vs Drukhari

As promised I'm sharing narrative battle report of my latest Campaign battle against a force of Drukhari.

The fights in sector A01 have intensified. 
The Crimson Fists Scout Squad saw the approaching Drukhari transporters.


Captain Jose-Arcadio Morelas decided that the best defense is offense, so he ordered the Scouts to attack immediately, while picking up available troops in a hurry. As soon as the Space Marines reached the battlefield, Capitan Morelas ordered an orbital bombardment. 


Although it only slowed the Dark Eldar vehicles, it allowed Crimson Fists to assume advantageous possitions before starting an assault. 




Drukhari's transports quickly located the position of imperial Scouts and rushed to them using the cover of nearby buildings. Unfortunately, the Hellblasters' unit predicted their path and used a breach in the building to fire from their plasma incinerators.



The ambush was successful, however, the transports managed to release the crew just before crashing. The Scout squad knew they were goners but they did not give up, and they were able to send one last report - Lelith Hesperax is on the battlefield! 


As soon as the report reached the main forces of the Crimson Fists, they moved to the enemy positions with redoubled determination. It did not take long before the commander of enemy forces died.


Remnants of Drukhari's army tried to use their advantage in melee combat, but it was not enough to defeat the Space Marines. The enemies of the Empire fell to one, and Captain Jose-Arcadio Morelas returned to base to inform his master Pedro Kantor about his next victory for the Emperor's glory.


Some tech details:

  • 750 points per side
  • Mission: MAXIMUM ATTRITION (Eternal War)
  • Result: 19VP Crimson Fists - 4VP Drukhari

Yeah I know, unpainted minis, unpainted terrain... Working on it ;)

  1. "Master Pedro Kantor" sounds like some mustard advertisment slogan. Lol xD

    1. And yet, I thought people would find Jose-Arcadio Morelas (Kiler-ów 2-óch anyone?) funnier 😛
