Warhammer 40,000 9th Edition / Command Manual Scenarios

[celticgriffon]

I haven't played much W40k over the years.  My first boxed set was 2nd edition.  I only played a handful of games during that era.  I somewhat preferred the grandeur of Epic instead.

When the Battle of Macragge came out I played a little and recently I also played a few games of 8th edition.

My 11 year old son has taken a liking to Death Guard and we decided we will play through the Missions in the Command Manual.

Unfortunately, it took 29 hrs to upload this 15 min clip to youtube. 

But here is our battle report for Mission 1: First Contact.

Thanks for watching!

Mission 2: Against the Swarm has now been uploaded.

I think the Space Marine Captain may have been able to fire his pistol in the shooting phase even though he was in hth..  If anyone knows the correct rules please feel free to comment. Cheers!
