RGC2005's Daily Grind - WarHammer 40, TTS ITC Battle

RGC2005's Daily Grind - WarHammer 40, TTS ITC Battle

Warhammer 40k 2000 point ITC Match

Orks (Bad Moons) suffer from a lack of indirect fire and my own lack of experience. This is a chunk of the 6 hour battle. My opponent lost his patience with me. Poor Ork opponents have to deal with over 100 models and the first turn is a major drag. Slogging thru a metric ton of Orks Grots and Boyz can get old really quick. 
Next time I am going to try not Turtling  in the midfielf and waiting longer to bring in my TankBustas.
Never Retreat, Never Surrender.
