First thing is that this is only my fourth game coming back from the first rule set. I’m a competitive 40k player so I pick up wargames pretty fast and this was me VS another newer player.

Pre-game.
I win the initial roll and deploy first and go first. I set up my rodok Haris so they can get into a decent position where they can either be defensive or grab an objective. My datruzi and spread out in the center to make use of their impetuous orders and smoke. My two suryats and character are set up wide right to flank.i held my raktorak back and deployed the ikadron back as my datatracker. My opponent playing vanilla deployed his heavy infantry to intercept my heavy infantry, his camo markers on top of a tall tower in the corner and his ninja hidden deployed near the center objective. For reserves I deploy my raktorak so I can form a five man core with the datruzi turn one and he deploys another camo marker to cover my rodoks.

Turn one.
My daturazi move up and lay down as much smoke as possible generating one aro but the shot failed. My opponent used a command point to short me two orders from group two so I spent their orders getting into a position where I could use the heavy rocket launcher to take out some pot shots. I then used the rest of my orders to form my core of daturazi with the raktorak and toss a crap load of grenades killing a heavy infantry and wounding another. I used the objectives twice on the daturazi generating nothing of note.

My opponent had a pretty bad turn to say the least. He started by failing a combat drop and dispersing into LOF of my HRL suryat, ending with some pretty yu Jing fireworks. He then reveals his camo markers to snipe my missile launcher rodok and after three orders he finally knocked him unconscious. This was the only loss I took all game. He then used a couple orders to MO e his heavy infantry to try and get to a better position but I was able to ARO with a chain rifle and he failed his armor roll, knocking him unconscious.

Turn two.
My opponent left his light infantry exposed to the right flank and my my suryats. I used group two and after my five orders I was able to light his forces on fire with my heavy rocket launcher while taking minimal AROs. After suffering LOL and killing his datatracker in one shot my opponent deferred the game to me.

Closing.
Form the first roll I had control of the game, my opponent came u prepared but still wanted a game and since this campaign had just begun he wanted to participate. I, having far more experience with war games and rules interactions, was able to end it quickly with the help of his poor rolls.
