Well not so many off us again but plenty going on
Will and Al had large stuff on the table and seemed to be having a whale of a time (Sorry)
Loads of Tanks and loads of Hungry 'Nids.

and Welcome to Sean - Thanks for popping in!

Handed off Phil's Buildings and Received some more, this time some Norse huts.

Justin's Opponent Marcus couldn't make it so I stepped up at the last minute for just short of 1000 points of Disposable heroes.
British Paras v Panzergrenadiers.

It was a little bit of a baptism by fire, while I hadn't played DH for a while Justin was returning after a bigger break. The advantage of a larger game for My PzGr is when you split the squads down to half units you double the amount of activation you get.
which makes fire and maneouver easier. the down side is you only have 5 men to a unit which is the trade off weakness you have to suffer.
Although fielding a full platoon does give you access to 6 LMG I backed this up with an HMG, Mortar, Recon unit (which gave me another LMG),Command and Panzerschrek Team with the entire platoon equipped with Panzerfaust
Justin fielded a standard Para Platoon (Elite) supported by Sniper team, Tetrarch and a Sherman (hence my reason for so much AT)
and also hoping that Justin would focus more on the Panzerschrek.
That being said the fog of war (Dice) can make up for that and getting a few early pins dropped Justin's initiative (Elite 11 down to 9 and then 8) enough to get me to win the Initiative roll for most of the game.

I fielded Panzerschrek (lost to a good shot from Justin's Sherman) and proceeded to pound the daylights out of it with Panzerfaust BUT missed 6 in a row Finally got it though!

The table pre-deployment Justin took the top of the table and I managed to get an LMG in one of the buildings and start the turn by pinning one of his units between the trees at the top right getting line of sight to half his unit.
Although we started late we managed to resolve the conflict with me taking one of my Objectives at the road as it exits the top right of the table, Justin conceded that any other movement from the small wood at the far right would result in some serious shooting from behind the walls to the right from 3 units moving to intercept him
But as usual with Justin always a good Game! and his Paras look really good on the table. I got so in to the game that I forgot to take any further pics Sorry!
