Back on the first weekend in September, I attended the Tempus Fugitives’ Damocles Gulf Crusade with the PCRC, hosted at Warhammer World. I’ve attended similar events before, and this time I was playing on the Imperial team using my Deathwing army, helping to defend the Cadian Gate from Abaddon’s 13th Black Crusade.
I haven’t mentioned it until now, as I was waiting for Graham to put the finishing touches to the video of the weekend, which can be seen here.
The Imperial teams didn’t do so well in the end. We were only just able to stall the Chaos advance with a last stand on Cadia, with Eldar assistance. So the forces of Chaos couldn’t claim a total victory, but they came pretty damn close!
My win/loss record for the weekend’s five games was as follows:
1000 points doubles vs. Night Lords Chaos Marines – Win
1500 points vs. Death Guard Chaos Marines – Loss
3000 points Apocalypse vs. Dark Mechanicus – Loss
1500 points vs. World Eaters Chaos Marines – Draw
3000 points Apocalypse doubles vs. Thousand Sons Chaos Marines – Loss
So one win, one draws and a three losses – not by best performance, but I still had a great time as all my opponents were pleasant and fun to play against.
All in all it was a fun weekend, and we hope to return for the next event – The Great Crusade in May 2009, when I plan to revive my Orks.
