Ulthwé Battle Dark Angels for Leningrad (1/5)

A Diplomacy Miniatures Campaign Battle (Spring 1935): Battle of Leningrad,
Eldar (ChrisE, Dave, Tim) represent Britain, Space Marines (Stu, Joe) are Turkey.

Featuring the miniatures of Keir

The battle saw the Eldar with a 1692 Pts Ulthwé Army moving against a Space Marine 1702 Pts Dark Angels Army. The pictures following show some highlights from the game. You can click the preceeding links for a detailled composition of each side.

Wraithlord follows an Eldar squad up the road toward the game objective, a bridge across a river.

Some Space Marines in a wood covering the bridge.

A fire base brilliantly placed by Tim. This heavy support squad of Dark Reapers simply shredded many of the Space Marines as they tried to advance. The next picture shows the commanding arc of fire this position held.

A bigger view. The Wraithlord can be seen in the distance and the Marines in the wood can be seen to the right. To the far left you can see the Dark Reaper fire base on the cut above the road. The Space Marines had a Dark Angels squad on the hill to the right in the foreground, just out of the picture. These were wiped out in a couple of short turns by the fire base as well as by fire from the large Eldar squad topping the rise in the foreground.
