Warhammer 40k Battle Report: Genestealer Cult vs Chaos Space Marines

Uncategorized Jun 14, 2021

In this Warhammer 40k Battle Report we see the Genestealer Cult vs Emperors Children.

Once again Jake is on and fielding one of Steves armies. This time it's the Emperors Children.

Against him and his reign of fire, Joe brings his Genestealer Cult. An army thats not performing great at the moment, but he hopes to get the job done.

For this Warhammer 40k 9th edition battle report we will be using 2000 point strike force armies along with the missions from the NEW Games Workshop Grand Tournament 2021 mission pack.

The mission for this battle report is SCORCHED EARTH.

A 6 objective Mission, with a Hold 1, Hold 2 stipulation.

In this Warhammer 40,000 battle report we talk through the Chaos Space Marines army and the secondary objectives that work well for them.

We also go through the GSC army list and their new secondary objectives.

We show you the armies, the mission, the deployment, turn by turn analysis and with the end of the turn and game round-up.

If you are looking for a new competitive chaos marine army using the rules from their 8th edition codex and Faith and Fury, but also themed to their narrative play style then you will love this list.

Same for the Genestealer Cult list, it is very competitive and also incorporates a great theme.
