40k Battle Report - 500 point Combat Patrol Tournament

The local GW store held a combat patrol tournament this week end, the rules are simple:

No named characters

Nothing with a 2+ Armour save

Nothing with more then 2 Wounds

Nothing with more then 33 Armour value all round

At least one troop choice

So I decided to enter and bring some Daemons to the party.  I got the rules wrong and thought you had to bring one HQ and one Troop choice, so I would have liked to bring 3 Flamers instead of my Herald of Khorne but oh well.

Here is the list I brought:

8 Bloodletters

8 Bloodletters

3 Bloodcrushers w/ Fury of Khorne and Instrument of Chaos

Herlad of Khorne /w Iron hide, Unholy Strength

I did not get any pictures for this because the games were fast and there was so much going on.

My preferred wave is:

8 Bloodletters

3 Bloodcrushers w/ Fury of Khorne and Instrument of Chaos

Second Wave: 

8 Bloodletters

Herlad of Khorne /w Iron hide, Unholy Strength

Competition to Beat all 4 Fantasy Greater Daemons 1 on 1

So the competition was simple, 1 on 1 against all 4 greater daemons to win. Little did I know they were using the storms of magic book for their stats. If you are not aware of storms of magic greater daemons they all have at least, strength 7 toughness 7, 7 wounds and at least (I think) 7 attacks, plus extras.

If you defeated a daemon, you became the champion of that god and received a card that let you bolster the stats of the character that slain the daemon in the next fantasy tourney. The prize was a blister that GW no longer makes. I won by using Skulltaker (yes I know cheesy but I was the only one who killed them all)

Here are some pictures and my prize: 

Nurgle was the first to feel my wraith

Next came Tzeentch

Finally took down the Bloodthirster and then Keeper of Secrets

Squig chasing a Goblin chasing a Squig

Painted version of my prize: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?prodId=prod20013a

Overall it was a really fun day, they also had a massive apoc game which lasted all day, I took part in a bit of it and the pictures/battle report are in my next post.

Thanks
