Damocles Crusade Campaign Battle 3

Clashing Battalions

Mission Source:     Chapter Approved 2019

Mission:                  Eternal War - Crusade

Points:                    1000 points

Armies:                   Imperial Fists / Tau Empire 

Following the severe beating the Tau took in the last battle, they have broken contact and withdrawn deeper into the city. The Imperial Fists are forced to send out smaller patrols to try to find and fix the Tau in place, so they can be crushed.

For this game, there was a restriction that both sides could only use a Battalion detachment.

Armies:                   Imperial Fists / Imperial Knights

Today we have a match that I have, quite frankly, been dreading. Imperial Knights are...simply one of those armies that, if you haven't built your army accordingly, Knights can just roll over you and you are never "in the game".

Knights going first usually results in a Knights win, because the sheer volume of killing power they can throw out on turn one is insurmountable. Usually that leaves the opponent in the position of trying to play the mission, and survive as long as possible.

That's the position the Imperial Fists are assuming they will be in from the get-go.

Having managed to fight their way through the initial Tau resistance, the Imperial Fists continue their dogged advance. Shadowsun is still opposing them, and has received additional troops to replace the losses after the last battle.
