Resistance of Nova Sparta

Day 2 dawns and here is my Resistance force.

Yesterday was not quite as planned, started off with a close loss, followed by a total destruction, and pulled it back with a draw. Two battles today the first is a bunker assult. I am hoping after having words with Simon of Hawk that I don't get a 4th battle against a UCM army.

Thanks, needed to play more to the objectives rather than the kill, but they became unobtainable rather fast

I was @commodorerob‘s last opponent and it was Resistance vs. Resistance. We had similar lists except that I am Allied (with the Warlord Retinue, plus 2 Zhukov’s and a Drill) whereas Rob is Feral (with Cyclones and a Barrel Bomber). It was a very close game in the end with me sneaking the only actual VP’s by managing to drive an objective off the board in their Battle Bus in Turn 3.
