Librarian Brother Arthur the Red commanded a 1499 points Succesors (The Storm Crows?) force against Tigurius' Ultramarines, in a Contact Is Lost scenario. Fairly open terrain, lots of good shootsy bits. The best investment was the Scouts - sniper scouts did fairly well in dicing, but the Assault Scouts held their own against some Veteran Assault Marines. The Vindicator is really the hero, having taken out a squad of Centurions and a Tactical Squad in two separate, earth-shattering shots.
My 5 man squad of tacticals communed with objective 1 (a classic Khorne Bloodletter that I gave Roy a while back) almost the whole game until turn 4 when they got into fisticuffs with some Terminators in from the warp.
Many good dicing moments for me, Roy got the shaft a couple times, some heroic assaults and fighting phases, a decent challenge.
An afternoon well spent, and we talked about gaming tables and campaign rules.
