Last night we played our first two(!) games of Grimdark Future Firefight; an excuse to finally bring out those old 40K miniatures. It must have been at least a decade since we gamed with these! (plus some new additions, like my Rogue Trader Mentor Legion force).
First game was between my Death Guard (aka Havoc Brothers Plague Disciples) and Voivod's Blood Axe Orks (aka Orc Marauders), which ended badly for the sickness; those Boys were entirely too jammy with their rolls and my own abysmal dicing certainly did not help
Second game was Necrons (aka Robot Legions) versus Mentor Legion (aka Battle Brothers), which saw victory being ripped out of my cold metallic hands at the very end of the last turn
No new model syndrome for the Mentor Legion apparently...
Each game played out in about an hour or so; extremely quick! the system is a very simplified Kill team, with just enough flavour to fit the different armies. We played with the basic rules, but I'm now curious about the full rule set, which might add some more flavour.
This was a lot of fun
Sadly no pictures of the first bout, but here are a few of the second game:
