Warhammer 40k Battle Report: NEW Drukhari vs Ultramarines

Warhammer 40k Battle Report: Ultramarines vs Drukhari

 

In this Warhammer 40k Battle Report we see the Regent of Terra Roboute Guilliman and his Ultramarines, Fighting the new and improved Dark Kin, The Drukhari.

 

This epic battle report  Joe will be showcasing the new Drukhari Codex in all its glory. We go through the army, its new rules, Stratagems and abilities.

 

All will not be so easy though as Stephen with his Space Marines will be doing his very best to bring the Dark Eldar to its knees. 

 

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 Vital Intelligence.

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

 

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

We also go through the new 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 Drukhari 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 Ultramarines list is very competitive and also incorporates a great theme.
