Decapitation Strike
January 2019·pp. 120–141
THE SHORT VERSION
Innes Wilson’s Imperial Knights, Blood Angels and Guardsmen face Liam O’Shea’s three-way Aeldari alliance in a Chapter Approved Maelstrom mission. The players tailor their objective decks and use deployment, movement and stratagem counters to disrupt one another. Liam destroys the Castellan early and uses numerous fast units to keep scoring despite losses.
The players call the game after four rounds with Liam ahead thirteen points to nine. Their discussion emphasises the Skyweavers’ anti-vehicle contribution, protecting key characters and choosing targets that enable a plan. A source note warns that the game predates the September rules updates, so some of its combinations already changed before publication.
