Grimdark Future: Firefight Battle Report (Human Defence Force Vs Dark Elf Raiders 250 points) S1E4

Commander Kruits comeback!? Episode 4 in the narrative campaign “Clash on Crapus 4”, where a supposedly abandoned planet suddenly attracts the attention of several different forces and races.
Commander Kruit and his squad of Human Defence Force soldiers are on the run. They recently faced a superior enemy in the dreaded Robot Lord, and barely managed to escape with only one casualty. Check out that battle in episode 1 of the Clash on Crapus 4 campaign.
They’re now moving towards a pickup zone and the only passage is through an old pumping station. It’s a perfect place for an ambush, so they approach carefully.
The Dark Elf Elite warrior Dhoros and his party of Raiders have recently followed the High Elven noble Shakarth, who they know is on a secret mission on Crapus 4. When Shakarth clashed with a clan of orcs, Dhoros decided to hide in a nearby pumping station. Now a scout has returned with news of someone approaching.

That looked like a lot of fun and the narrative just added so much atmosphere to the game. Great job and looking forward to more!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much.. I’m glad you enjoyed it.. :-) There will definitely be more soon

[@SpannSr1970]

Excellent video!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much👍

I like that Dhoros is a 3rd edition Kabalite. I've been painting a fair few of those the last few months, so I'd recognize the sculpt anywhere. While the newer Kabalites are undoubtedly better models, I've grown to appreciate the older ones.

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

I often feel the same way.. I appreciate both the new and great looking models as well as the charm of the older ones.. thanks for watching 👍

Can I ask you where you got the cardboard tokens from? I have the pdf for the tokens but yours look like they are cardstock or better. Nice video btw, keep up the good work.

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much.. The tokens I use are “original” tokens from the Core Space board game, so you’re right about the quality..

[@VapidZero]

What a comeback.

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Yeah.. unexpected! Thanks for watching
