We had our semi-regular game of Sunday night Kill Team tonight, my Intercession squad versus a four-man team of Adeptus Custodes versus the brand-new Night Lords squad! The final score was 3-2-0 Night Lords/Intercession/Custodes, but we ended up calling shortly after the start of the third turn because there were only three objective markers and I couldn't physically move fast enough to contest the two that the Night Lords had. In retrospect we should have put some more objectives down, but the mission we chose had three objective markers on it but with different rules that we decided were too complicated, so we just did a standard "capture the point" type of thing. Play of the match goes to my leader Sister Sarine, she fired a supercharged plasma pistol shot into one of the Custodes and rolled two 6s, a 2, and 1. I'd taken the strategic ploy that lets you reroll an attack dice if you're shooting at something within 6" so rerolled the 1 for that and scored another 6, then spent a command point and rerolled the 2 and got ANOTHER 6! That SHOULD have been game over for the enemy operative but annoyingly he'd taken a strategic ploy that takes crit damage down to normal damage, and so even though he was only rolling one defence dice because of the AP2 plasma pistol shot, it was still a 2+ save and so he survived on only 3 wounds. ::fistshake::
