Battle At The Bridge - Mortwald

 

Points: 2000.

Deployment and Mission: Dawn Of War / Chilling Rain.

Primary Objective: Take And Hold.

Detachment: Anvil Siege Force.

Opponents Detachment: Fellhammer Siege Host.


The Rift Wardens fortified a skyway bridge which connected Imperial held territory with a transit station controlled by the Iron Warriors. To do this, they had to destroy a portion of the bridge and barricade it with heavy weapons at the other end. The space marines took their position at an elevated point. The Iron Warriors decided not to storm the bridge and began using their daemon engines instead, before finally deciding to try and cross at another location.

During the night, a company of legionnaires crossed the bridge and were soon joined by a force of Nurgle daemons. During the night the Iron Warriors attacked en mass. The Rift Wardens lacked enough ammunition and after hours of fighting, were forced to regroup several streets back from the bridge.
