Bryan: After reading over the mission rules, I knew this game was going to be a difficult one. I had to race Inquisitor Severus over into contact with the Cube just to have a chance at stopping the Daemon from emerging. Assuming he survived that run through a hail of bolter fire, Severus had to engage the Lieutenant AND his Retinue in hand-to-hand to escape the bolters (hiding behind the Cube probably wouldn't fly at that point with the Plague Marines flanking me at speed). Hopefully, I could kill the Lieutenant before the Plague Marines joined the assault or Severus would soon become a Daemonhost. For my Guardsmen, I was going to move them into position to get the best fields of fire so they could try to offer some cover for Severus's advance. I was also going to use one squad of Guardsmen as a "meat shield" to soak up some of the fire aimed at the Retinue. Once I found out about Jake's Infiltrators, I was worried that my plan would be for naught...I hoped my Stormtroopers could handle them. Time to blast that Cube!
