6th Edition and Allies

Well I have been pondering the potential for Allies over the last few days just to see what I can have along side my Ultramarines.

'Ultramarines vs. Necrons - 5th July 2012' and my verdict on 6th so far

Well I headed on over to Hulls Angels for a game of 6th Edition against Skaltar and his Necrons on the 5th. (late posting the report as I have been away for the last week).
First off I'd like to say thanks to Skal for the game, really enjoyed it, and look forward to another game once I have chance to changes things up a little bit.

I learnt a lot about what bits in my current build don't work any more and which do. Well at least against the Crons. Will take what I learnt, and have some games against other armies and work towards a new build. Already got some plans for that.
