Warhammer 40k Battle Report: Death Guard vs Blood Angels
In this Warhammer 40k Battle Report we see the match up everyone has been asking us for The Blood Angels vs The Death Guard.
In this epic battle report Joe will be showing off the disgustingly resilient Death Guard. We go through the army, its rules, Stratagems and abilities.
Steve will be running the Sons of Baal, in the hope to out manoeuvre the slow Heretic Astartes.
For this Warhammer 40k 9th edition battle report we will be using 2000 point strike force armies along with the missions from Games Workshop Grand Tournament 2020 mission pack.
The mission for this battle report is Retrieval mission.
A 6 objective Mission, with a Hold 1, Hold 2 stipulation.
In this Warhammer 40,000 battle report we talk through the Adeptus Astartes Blood Angels army and the secondary objectives that work well for them.
We also go through the Deathguard army list and their new secondary objectives.
We show you the armies, the mission, the deployment, turn by turn analysis and with the end of the turn and game round-up.
If you are looking for a new competitive Deathguard army using the rules from their 9th edition codex, but also themed to their narrative play style then you will love this list.
Same for the Blood Angels list is very competitive and also incorporates a great theme.
