Ork Campaign Game Three

A return to Ilkestaaan at the Ilko Gaming Hut.
After the previous game Waaagh Ginganutz had chosen to Probe. Steve loves a good probing. Waaagh Gruzzkup, on the back foot, chose reinforcements and thus the battle would be Roving Patrol.
The table was set up the same as in the previous battle. We placed the objectives, set up and had at it.

Waaagh Ballruum had bought the Battlewagon


The Ginganutz lads ran toward the ruins


Gruzzkupp had trukked up some of his ladz


And bought Klankenstein


Unfortunately Ginganutz had the tools to deal with a Dredd



Ginganutz had the first turn and pushed up, but didn't manage their usual devastating firing.

Ballruum then revved the Battlewagon and headed towards the Bad Moons.
Ginganutz took a dim view of this


And prepared to meet it with a storm of fire.


Meanwhile Gruzzkup got his Nobz out and occupied the buildings in the centre


While his ladz held da jungle


It all then got  bit vehicular. Da Ballruum Battlewagon floored da gas and rammed the Buggery Buggy.

While Gruzzkup's Dirty Trukkers did a drive by on the Bad Moonz.


The Buggery Buggy proved vastly superior to the Battlewagon. Not for the first time we all looked at the points value of this brand new Ork kit.


Da Drive By Trukkerz hosed the ruins clean.


The thing a Buggery Buggy is less good at dealing with is ladz.


The Ballruum footsloggerz began a push toward the ruins.


Gruzzkupp's boys remained in the bushes.


But the Dirty Trukkerz got a bit over excited and raced into the Bad Moon deployment zone in search of victory points.


Their trukk inevitably bit da dust and the ladz got duffed up.




Ginganutz himself decided to help out the Buggery Buggy.


And proved quite handy.



At this point Waross Ballruum suddenly shifted his focus. His ladz poured into the middle of the ruins.



And fell upon Gruzzkupp's 'Magnificent' Seven Nobz.


Te result was inevitable. Gruzzkupp's boyz were no match for the Ballruum numbers and they were wiped out, leaving Ballruum in command of the objective - and the game!

So Ballruum triumphed, Gruzzkupp came second and Ginganutz fell to defeat.
Fortunately Steve hardly mentioned at all throughout the game over and over and over again that he was fighting two armies and it wasn't fair, waah, waah, waah!

Ballruum claimed a Ginganutz territory and Gruzzkupp managed to claim a second from the beleaguered Bad Moons.

Ballruum chose to Advance and Ginganutz hit back with a Flank - so the next game will be Spoils of War - how thrilling.
