W40k 9th - Patrol Battle Report - The Irritating Pups

 Played a Patrol (600pts) 9th initiation game at Molotow, a cool little FLG in Hong Kong.

Dark Angels vs Howling Beast (Space Wolf Successor).
A group of unruly young Howling Beast decided to tickle the serious Dark Angels. Will Space Marines in old armor have a chance against Dark Angels with the most best and most up-to-date equipment of the Imperium? Here is their story...


On the moon of Redizded, the space wolves successor chapter "Howling Beast" decided to take on Dark Angels stationed there.

Dark Angels readied a small strike force. Chapelain, Primaris, Bikers and Terminators.

Howling Beast brought in many wolf guards. A terminator Chaplain, a Wolf Guard Terminator Team, Bloodclaws with their Wolf Guard Terminator Pack Leader and Grey Hunters with their Wolf Guard Terminator Pack Leader

the Howling Beast deployed in 2 halves. Blood Claws with the Chaplain and Grey Hunters with the Terminators.

The Howling Beast are (very) lucky in their shots.

On the other side, the Chaplain is charging motos, surviving the bullets, plasma and meltas. Loki is with them. The Chaplain shows the example to the BloodClaws. Melee it should be!

Dark Angels focused on objectives while the young pups seems to be focused on fighting only
The Howling Beast taunted the DA. Enough was enough. The DA to teach respect to the little jerks.

The DA Chaplain and the Terminators charged, showing how it is done to the so-called space wolves successor
But. against all odds, the Howling Beast managed to survive the storms, resulting in an unusual turn of events.

To add salt on the wound, the Grey Hunter finished the terminators.

By the end of turn 3, the DA had 4 Primaris left, and by turn 4, the Howling Beast scored and scored, bored as their was no enemy to defeat.

Summary:
I have been very lucky with the dice and lost almost no units to fire. While my shots were true and got the upper hands in the melee. Good fun.

    1. I found a good group of casual/competitive players. It revived my love of 40k.
