I've always had an aversion to the boys in blue and this is probably why I chose Minotaur marines.
My opponent was new to the game having only started in November last year and had brought a nice army of the units he liked.
Calgar with 5 terminators bodyguard I'm an outflanking land raider (warlord trait) a scout squad, a deep striking terminator assaukt squad, a devastator squad, 2 tactical squads, one on a drop pod and a land speeder squadron.
I have to say my opponents strategic acumen was not all that great as to be expected from the level of his experience.
My sternguard ripped through the land speeder squadron and then the static tactical squad. My vanguard vets were my heroes of this game took out the scouts, the devastators and the drop podding tactical squad to deny my enemy lime breaker.
My enemies finest moment came when I tried to repeat my success against Fuegan by charging Calgar with my 2 tactical squads thinking I could take him down through weight of numbers. Despite having only 2 wounds left as I charged he hung on for three turns whittling down my 18 marines down to 4. If the game had gone on any longer I would have been wiped out.
Result: crushing victory
