Battle Gallery for
August 2008: APOCALYPSE!
I think this was roughly 15,000 points per side. A massive undertaking.
Things did not go smoothly but we did (hopefully) learn from our mistakes.

| The garage, a day before. I set up the terrain the day before to save time the day of the show. Here's the base structure at 6' x 12'. |  |
The terrain about half way through. It's tough to figure out what will make a balanced board at this size. |  |
| View from the "Back 40". Marshlands leading to flat, prairie with small ruins leading to a small imperium base, complete with power generators. |  |
The next mornging, sun shining, birds singing - the garage awaits the carnage. |  |
| The combined Ork force. |  |
A smattering of the proxy critters for Tyranids and Chaos. |  |
| Forces of the Imperium awaiting deployment. |  |
Orks and Imperial Guard deploy a garrison force of long range weapons to defend the city side of the table. The "spider" is proxy for a Hierophant (which worked very well) and the Rancor is a Titan (Warhound) proxy. |  |
| Choas filth amasses at the edges of teh swamp for cover, waiting thier turn to rush into battle. |  |
Many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, gaunts swamp the city sector, striking fear and incertainty into the ork and hoomie forces. |  |
| The view down the "main street" of town. It doesn't look good with only a Chimera and two lootas left. Those things look BIG! |  |
One turn and 7 hours later.... All forces hav efinally deployed! Yay! Ork Fighta bombas scour the landscape, repeatedly removing tons of gaunts, but they keep coming back! |  |
| Lotst of Ork Tanks deploy to harass the Gargantuan creatures from the rear. |  |
Orks fill up the rest of the deployment zones, ready to surround the enemy and crush'em. We'll never find out though as this is the last turn. |  |
