Battle 4 Tav VS Grey Knights

Battle 4 
Tau vs Grey Knights


On my fourth battle I was introduced to the save everything wonderful Grey Knights who came in and slaughtered me! hahah it was a pretty horrific. Before we deployed or started the game he warned me about his 30 inch shunt and when I deployed I put my pathfinders in distance for them to get run up on and then flamed to their deaths. On a crazy turn of events during that turn he didn't roll for dangerous terrain tests and we rolled for it and he ended up loosing his flamer in the process which saved me a bunch of pathfinders. But that didn't slow the knights down. They came in and assaulted everything in their path even my Ethereal but it didn't matter everything was killed before I got to windle down his Terminator's and Paladin's. I was able to slay the warlord the Dreadkinght but That was about it. Overall a huge learning game for me and how powerful the Grey Knight army is. Until next time Knights of Cheddar I'll get you back!
