Default space wolf first battles

Sorry these aren’t very good as there my first battles and reports any advice on how to write them better please tell.

Today I have 3 battles to report on.
1 was a 3 vs. 2 uneven points
1 was a massive assassination game 4 vs. 4
1 was a proper points one 2 vs. 2

Battle 1

Rune Priest Skigor looked at the battlefield as the necron forces rose. Hating the thought of having to ally with tau. He knew he must though for the necron forces brought the night bringer to battle. Rune priest Skigor and his squad of bloodclaws charged forwards with venerable dreadnaught Alk giving them support. Shooting from the venerable dreadnaught and the tau forces only managed to down 2 flayed ones who got back up. As the flayed one charged the bloodclaws they stood firm. They lost a few of their number but eventually killing the whole squad. As the rest of the army fired upon the necrons killing 17 necrons with the combined help of the scouts killing 1 destroyer. The next turn the scouts were obliterated .The necron forces retaliated the nightbringer charged a unit of greyhunters how stood firm and got slaughtered. A gauss fire destroyed the dreadnaught assault cannon. The bloodclaws were suffering terrible losses with loosing about 8 from the blood claw pack and the greyhunters all wiped out but 1 power fist. The 2 remaining rhinos moved in front of the remaining necrons turning to the side to block there line of fire. The venerable dreadnaught, runeprist skigor, the 1 bloodclaw power fist and the 2 normal bloodclaws and the remaining grey hunter charged the night bringer. The night bringer destroyed the venerable dreadnaught. But Dreadnaught Alk would not go without a fight in his explosion he manages to take 1 wound of the c’tan. Rune priest Skigor attacked causing 1 wound on the c’tan. Then it came down to the 2 power fists. The blood claw outraged at the loss of his brother smacked the c’tan so hard causing 2 wounds I think (he cause at least 1) Leaving the c’tan with 1 wound. The next turn both rhinos were destroyed the remaining men were killed by the c’tans fear gaze or something. The tau forces were wiped out during the game and then were moped up by remaining necrons.

Man of the match
The power fist blood claw. This has now been named the necron killer. Causing the most wounds of the whole army was amazing.

Battle 2

Ok this was a big match of assignation we had to destroy the enemies hive tyrant they had to destroy this tau leader. It was 1 squad each. I had a venerable dreadnaught, another space wolf player had a grey hunter pack (awesome showing of true grit) with a rune priest. We also had some kasakins, 2 sentinels, 1 Lemun Russ and lots of tau also some terminators. They had a land raider, hive tyrant, carnafex, 3 warriors, about 6 bikes, some genestealers, and an insane amount of chaos warriors.

If we killed there hive tyrant he would release some physic power that destroyed the entire enemy. If are leader died we ran away or something.

First turn of shouting. My venerable dreadnaught walked forward firing his assault cannon causing 1 wound of a tyranid warrior that’s all he did this match. Sentinels took a wound of hive tyrant. Lemun Russ killed some chaos warriors. Broadside or battle suit fired at the land raider crusader destroying it on first shot of game. The terminators killed the genestealers. Next turn landraider comes back somehow. Then they shot and fought some stuff killed battlesuits and some terminators, and the weapons of the sentinels. Then it came to our turn. Broad side readied itself shot its blast right through the head of the hive tyrant.

We won shortest game ever played I think.

Man of the match: Had to be tau broad side winning us the game.

3rd battle
The only proper game with points. Me and other space wolf guy vs. tau and blood angels.

This will be a quick recount as there weren’t any big combats.

This was a kill all game.

As the space wolves surged forward. Under fire from the enemy. Only 4 bloodclaws died. The grey hunters rapid fired through a broken door killing the stealth suit team. The predator annihlator took out the battlesuits before it could do anything. Next turn the enemy surged forward into combat with black rage only 2 bloodclaws died from enemy fire. As one grey hunter squad basically got cut up by an assault squad. While the other bloodclaws and grey hunters were in basically even in losses. The bloodclaws surged into combat with the assault squad to help there brothers out. Wiping out the enemy but with only 6 bloodclaws left. Which got destroyed the next turn by a unit of normal marines. As the enemy marines got cut up on the other side. Leaving only 1 fire squad, tau battle suits, and another squad of normal marines. About 2 of the 3 bloodclaws packs were dead (from ally mine are all dead already) and some greyhunters, rune priest and wolf priest left and predator. The battlesuits killed them selves while trying to fly through difficult terrain. As the other squad got killed by the remaining bloodclaws and greyhunters. The annihilator took out one of the heavy support squads as they had to move due to black rage. Then the remaining 2 got killed by bolt pistols the next turn.

Some good dice rolls in this battle. Opponent getting 3,4,5,6 for his black rage. Rolling double 5 for the bloodclaws cover save against there 2 instant death attacks.

So in all
1 loss (first game)
2 wins

This bloodclaws has learned some thing these games. Never underestimate power fists in bloodclaws and having a tank draws enemy fire easily. Also I think one blood claw that wounded a necron god should get a promotion.


If you want to know anymore just post and ill answer anything u want to know about the matches (more detail)

So tell me what u think. Here is my army list only changes were in 1 game the tanks didn’t have any guys in them and there were 11 bloodclaws.

1000 pt list

Rune priest Skigor 109 pts
Bolt pistol, frostaxe, wolf pelt, krak grenade, wolf tail talisman, Auspex

Venerable Drednaught Alk 170 pts
Assault cannon, heavy flamer, extra armour

Elite
4 wolf scouts pack fang 112 pts
Melta gun, plasma pistol, Melta bombs, 2 power weapons

Troops

9 boodclaws Pack Claw 211 pts
Flamer, power fist, power weapon
Transport rhino: extra armour, smoke launchers, search light


10 grey hunters Pack Alrick 272 pts
Melta, power fist, power weapon, 9 bolters and ccw
Transport rhino: extra armour, smoke launchers

7 grey hunters pack Igor 126 pts

A few changes will make to the list in future swap it so bloodclaws have 2 power fists and grey hunters have 2 power swords or just 1.
