Warhammer 40k Battle Report: Drukhari vs Adeptus Mechanicus

Uncategorized May 31, 2021

In this Warhammer 40k Battle Report we see the new Adeptus Mechanicus vs Drukhari.

 

For this Warhammer 40k live stream Battle report, as requested by you. We have the new Adeptus mechanicus, 9th Edition Codex vs the current meta boogy man, The Drukhari.......

Steve will be taking over control of the new Admech, wanting to put an end to the Dark Eldar's rain of terror. 

Joe will be running the dark kin. Hoping to show that they are still the cool new hotness.

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 PRIORITY TARGET.

A 5 objective Mission, with a Hold 1, Hold 2 stipulation.

 

In this Warhammer 40,000 battle report we talk through the Mechanicus army and the secondary objectives that work well for them.

We also go through the Drukhari 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 admech army using the rules from their new 9th edition codex, but also themed to their narrative play style then you will love this list.

Same for the Aeldari list is very competitive and also incorporates a great theme.
