I will be able to bring Kill Team as promised (tempestus aquilons and angels of death) in addition to 2000pts of Orks for 40k.
Unfortunately, the space requirements of bringing more than one Gargantuan Squiggoth mean I won't have as much terrain as I normally do. I'm sure it will work out.

I have overlooked your post about Kill Team. Then, I would bring my GSC (with 2000pts list for 40K and Wyrmblade Kill Team) and Gellerpox Infected to befriend myself with current versions for both games.

I can bring a box of Go-Mo terrain for you to rummage through. Got to get that board good n orky! Gargantuan Squiggoth...man, I always wanted to add a brachiosaurus to my Diggachick dino-armada.

@asch - Sounds great!

@Konrad - I hope it isn't too much trouble. Thanks!

Thanks for another great day all!

Morning game against Al was fun and a good lesson in respecting the Custodes' firepower and playing cautiously. Can't guarantee I actually learned that lesson of course

Spearhead in the afternoon was fun, though the lesson for my Skaven is that the Ironjawz have poor luck-fortune, yes-yes. Having played both Spearheads for the rats I definitely think the older one (Stormvermin and a mortal wound cannon) is stronger than the Skaventide one, but Dave had some bad luck trying to kill off the Clawlord and that ended up swinging more VP than I think the rat really deserved.

Still, good time all around! Excited to see two Dino-Squiggoths on the table down the other end of the room too!

See you folks for the next one

Thank you to everyone but in particular Konrad for lending me the fantastic orky fort and Asch for putting up with my nonsense all day!

In retrospect, we should have played kill team first and 40k in the afternoon. Those genestealer cultists just don't stop coming!

Thank YOU for playing tow different games with me.
I agree to your reflection. As I am not used to GSC nor 10th ed., the morning game turned out pretty slow. Perhaps I should consider putting something titan-killing into my list. Next time, I would try Broodbrothers Auxilia list with some AM tanks ( Baneblade, maybe).

Definitely good fun! (And apologies to Al if I got a little salty at a point or two during our game ). I think the lesson for me is "Ironjawz are weak against mortal wounds" as much as anything, although making more of my armor saves certainly would have been nice. The low speed wasn't nearly as much of a problem as I thought it'd be, as being able to shout at some orcs and get an extra 6" of move every round ends up being quite a lot of ground covered. Definitely a much more straightforward army to use than my Hedonites, where I've definitely forgotten to use my army ability in the heat of the moment more than a few times.

Took a while to upload. Waaaaagh-raaaarh! We ought to get in some Go-Mo one of these days. Your Tyrano-Orks vs the DinoDiggaz vs TRUKKOSAURUS!!! Which Jurassic titan will rule the desert?
