what's up hive! Played a 2v2 game last Saturday and had some crazy luck with my haywire rolls turn one! just wanted to share with the hive.
Me and a Chaos player took on marines and Astra Militarum! 1500 a person so 3k each side. rolled big guns never tire, and we got first turn.
I ran the standard x2 flyrant with electro and x2 crones along with the rest of my army. after exchanging list the marine player was running 2 thunder fire cannons and an imperial knight!! The AM player had the hq of three tanks with plasma ( not to sure what there called) So we deiced to be deploy aggressive and put all our flyers right on the deployment line for an straight forward assault!
He deployed the knight right in the middle of big piece of area terrain on the right side of the field, and both thunder fire right behind him. The AM tanks were placed beside the knight but closer to the middle of the board.
They didn't steal so all our flyers took off! flyrants flew to the middle of the board, right in between tanks and knight. Crones flew straight at the knight. I cast onslaught on both of my flyrants so they got a little deeper down the board. the plan was to shoot crones at knight, make him pick his front shield, then shoot his rear or side with flyrants. So the crones shoot, hit all 4 shots, rolled the dice for haywire chart....all four of them were 6's!! he failed 2 of the 4 saves. rolled for pin chart....2 more 6's!!! Boom goes knight with first shoots of first turn!!! he blew up...rolled onto his thunder fire....and Boom lost both cannons to the D blast!! 4 vps right away was amazing! with him gone my flyrants clearly had a new target. so they turned there attention to the tanks, was able to hit all 3 tanks with first electro template, 2 with the other. rolled five dice on the haywire chart....No lie five more 6's!!! it was glorious!! after all the shooting i killed the entire tank squad as well!!! it will never happen again but what an amazing run with haywire first turn!! 9 haywire pins in a row!! Go nids go nids go!!!
