Warhammer 40k Battle Report: Imperial Knights vs Dark Angels

In this Warhammer 40k Battle Report we see the dignified household of the Imperial Knights fighting the ever secretive Dark Angels.

This epic battle report Joe will be running the Dark Angels an update version of his DA list, which he will be hoping to take to tournaments in the future.

VT Coach Arron is bringing the updated knight list, from what he used on the stream vs Stephens Chaos knights.

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 The Scouring.

A 6 objective Mission, with a Hold 2, Hold 3 stipulation.

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

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