Yeah.. Got my ass handed to me (I'm the marines)...
I have some idea what I did wrong... I deployed too thin, I dropped my pod too far out, I should have infiltrated instead of outflanking with my scouts, and I shouldn't have deep-struck so close to that obstacle (ended up mishaping and getting my terminators sent to the far corner), and should have put the whirlwind behind the hill and used indirect barrage.
Well, I only started buying stuff a month ago. Give it time.
And the more dakka was my first game; my marines vs. two 30x boyz squads, 9 canz, and a captain which annoyingly gave them all cover/invuln saves. Lost that one too, but that time I had completely forgotten I had krak grenades and melta bombs :|
None of the special ones, if that's what you're asking. Just regular space marines. I'm using a custom color scheme; similar to Brazen Claws but with a few changes. The blue is a bit darker, the helmet is all blue (for most troops), and the symbol(s) (once I get them painted on) will be various trigrams. (Different ones for different types of troop; HQ are Heaven, Heavy are Fire, etc.)
If that sounds familiar, there's a reason for that ;)
