Sharing my Captain and his story!

Took this lowely squad, led my new captain to a game vs orcs last week. You ever heard of new model syndrome? Well this was the opposite! (Shameless post warning)

In my turn 2 my opponent used Da Jump to get 20 boyz, a weirdboy and a warboss close to my home obj with rapid ingress. After peppering the orks with 5 hellblasters Mr. Captain over here, who was making his way towards the center, turned around and rolled a 12 on the charge to come back and defend his land! The intercessors cleared up some boyz before the Captain, with the imperiums sword, used Final Hour to kill 1 boy, a nob, the weirdboy, and the warboss in a single activation!

The warboss wasn't done though and clapped back with fight on death, killing off the bodyguard unit and landing a wound on the Captain.

In my opponents next turn another warboss, leading a damaged unit containing 2 boyz and a nob, who was leaving a corner objective to go center board decided to turn toward my lone Captain and fire his Gobshot Thunderbuss! Bringing the Captain down to 1 wound remaining!

Loyal and courageous, sword raised high my Captain put himself in assault doctrine the next turn and ran along the long end of the board to charge the xeno scum! The imperiums sword brought down killed off the unit, but alas Brute Bosses detachment activates fight on death for the warboss and he takes my beautiful captain down with him.

In total my Captain leading 5 assault intercessors killed roughly 480 points worth of orks and prevented the warboss with da gobshot thunderboss from engaging at the center objectives. He also scored assassination, no prisoners and a grivious blow in that first fight activation.

The game ended with tableing my opponent with 3 models left standing (terminators). I won 72-69.

I'm still thriving off of the high this match gave me a week later.
