This was our first game of Battlefleet Gothic using Vassal. I will say it works very well. I'll also say that Necrons are completely overpowered.

Apulo's Necrons

Nox's Eldar

No pretty pictures or blow-by-blow but let's just say the Necrons reduced the Eldar to burning hulks in two turns. I think if we ever run a BFG tournament, Necrons will be disallowed.

In BFG your not supposed to have equal teams in some gametypes anyway. Quite a lot of BFG games have triple or double points on one side, those games Necrons and Nids are balanced for

We discovered the other problem. I used the Eldar located in the Battlefleet Gothic Rulebook, whereas in the wake of the Tau, Tyranids and Necrons coming out a new form of the Eldar Fleet has been released called Move, Move, Shoot, which changes the way the Eldar work and would have prevented some of the carnage that happened in the game we played.

Ah, that would explain some things. Also being able to turn quickly is very nice for Eldar

I could see how other fleets would carve the Necrons up. I think the oldschool Eldar are just sitting ducks for Lightning Arcs.

I have watched and had done on to me, the carnage of the necron fleet. only with the fire power of three Emperor class battleships did I defeat a necron fleet. after losing half my cruiser screen.
