Hi,
Last Friday, I played with Oll a new part of 40k, V2. The fight set the imperial guard vs a cult Genestealer in an urban district.

I have made a AAR on my site(in french) with photos.

The fights were relentless.
Here is my army in the beginning of part (Miss landspeeder on the photo)

And here, it is at the end of part.

Nice battle you had there. The Leman Russ used was a converted toy tank?

Leman Russ? If you mean the light blue thing at the top right it's an old-style Predator.

Hi, I am the Imperial guard player.

Yes the Leman Russ seen in the AAR (not above) is a toy conversion :

I use a lot of alternative miniatures for my army that you can see here :

The game was a lot of fun and mutual destruction.

Thanks for the reply, hehe. I saw that you used the Warzone figures for your IG but couldn't identify the Leman Russ. Where did you buy it?

And congratulations to both of you for gaming with a mix of figures from different lines and great scenario. If only I had all those ONI zombies

I am really happy to have all these zombies. I bought oni army box for 33 dollars only.

Ogryns is also very nice... Beautiful but dead

I've really been looking, but I just can't find the "Leman Russ" in the first set of pictures! Where did you hide it?!

...moments later...

Found the link to the rest of the report... and there it was!

The tank was a spare unit. It is not deployed in the beginning of part.

Nice battle report! I always enjoy seeing people playing 2nd edition 40k, particularly when they're using things that don't exist in the modern game (Genestealer Cults!). I forwarded this on to my local mailing list of 2nd edition gamers, and they all really enjoyed it -- none of us read French, but we had fun trying to work out what was going on!

Did you Gate Genestealers? That was a popular move!

Hi,
Thank you for your comments. It is very pleasant.

Some photos of the leaders of my cult.

Particularly like the first one - great pose!

Those cult leaders are great. Are the first and the last old GW figures? Don't remember seeing them before, like all the others.

The base of the first one looks like an Ilyad base to me, guess it's one of their minis
