Space Wolves: The Fierce-eye’s Finest (Krom Dragongaze, the Fierce-eye’s Wolf Guard, Hengist Ironaxe’s Grey Hunters and Egil Redfist’s Blood Claws).

Ork: Grukk’s Rippin’ Krew (Grukk Face-rippa, Skrak’s Skull-Nobz, Rustgob’s Runts and Krumpa’s Killa Kans).

In Gofftown, the Space Wolves and Orks will settle the score once and for all. Each side scores 1 Victory Point for each enemy unit they kill, with a bonus D3 points if they can kill the enemy leader in a duel with their own.

The game started with Adam’s Space Wolves advancing cautiously onto the battlefield, with not a single Ork in sight. Andy had chosen to use the special rule given to Grukk’s Rippin’ Krew, keeping all of his models in reserve for a Tellyporta Attack. When it came, the Orks hit like thunder, Andy’s greenskins descending as one. Grukk and his Nobz landed right in between Krom Dragongaze and the Blood Claws and Hengist Ironaxe’s Grey Hunters, and the Killa Kans and Grots arrived mere inches behind him. In a blazing salvo the Orks opened fire, shootas, grot blastas and heavy weapons from the Killa Kans battering the Blood Claws, but only managing a single kill.

If Grukk’s arrival had been shocking, the Space Wolf counter attack was more so, as the Wolf Guard strode towards Grukk and his Skull-Nobz, blasting them with their bolters. Two Nobz were blown apart in grisly explosions, the veteran Space Wolves strafing the Orks with practised ease. Inspired by their accuracy, the Blood Claws and Grey Hunters joined in the shooting, plasma gun shots and frag grenade blasts slaughtering the last three Nobz and leaving Grukk all alone. With a howl the Blood Claws charged, Egil Redfist and Krom himself leading the pack. Defiant, Grukk gestured a crude challenge to Krom that the Wolf Lord readily accepted. As glittering frost axe and power klaw struck both mighty Champions fell, leaving the Blood Claws stood over the prone forms of Krom and Grukk.

Adam and Andy were both euphoric at the outcome – Adam had just ripped the beating heart out of Andy’s army by killing the Ork Warboss, but Grukk had taken the mighty Space Wolf Lord kicking and screaming down with him. Even better for Andy, when the players rolled their D3 for the bonus Victory Points, he scored 2 to Adam’s 1. The fight wasn’t over yet.

Bereft of their leader, the remaining Greenskins surged into the fight, determined to tip the tide of the battle in their favour with one last effort. The Killa Kans attacked the Grey Hunters, gunning one down with their grotzooka before slicing three more apart with their buzzing kan klaws. Only the pack leader, Hengist, remained. Bellowing his hate at the xenos-filth as he hacked apart a Kan with his power axe before realising that discretion was the better part of valour, Hengist fell back, outpacing the Killa Kans for long enough for the Blood Claws to despatch Rustgob’s Runts in a welter of bloodshed and rush to his aid.
