In all, a great game.  I thought I was done for when the Orcas took out the Jaegers after they, themsellves, put a hurting on the LI and the ACG.  Fortunately, the Sniper managed to take out two of thos ugly little humpers, the mortar finally got into it after Big Bob was down and took out the rest of the HI, and the dragoons were able to sling enough lead to get the Capitolists to turn tail and run.

Jeff managed to get my Leader (the Jaeger Kaptain) early on, but I was able to minimize losses and wound up with over half of my forces still on the board at the end.

So Capitol won? Congratulations.
Who was the Leader of Capitol?

I would assume that the Infantry Colonel was Capitol commander, where the Jaeger Kaptain was Bauhaus' (they are both at the top of their respective lists).

Great battle report btw dmcgee ;o)

Capitolian Leader was the Infantry Colonel, however, killing my "commander" did not give Dodge the edge in points.  Normally, this would be an addition to the tourney point system, and seeing's as how I had almost half my forces left, there's no way Dodger outscored me.

Ah, you play with Victory Points. We play scenarios with a specific target. If you fullfill the target you win the game.
It doesn't matter how many models you have lost. So games become aggressive and fast.

I don't want to "correct" the Capitol Force, I just like to build forces for scenarios.
So here is what I would have fielded:
2x Squad Hvy. Inf. with Sniper
1x Squad Assault Marines with HMG and Hero.
1x Squad Wailing Banshees with Hero
2x Orca Mk III and 1x Orca MkV with AP
1x Colonel (Leader)
1x Big Bob

I would try to outlflank the enemy with the Wailings to get a shot on the opposing leader.
The Snipers always shot the leader, if they are able to.
The Orcas and Assaults are your protection shield for your leader.
Just my idea.

dmcgee1 great report and nice pictures   :)  of the game in progress. 

Did the level 3 desert come into play much during the game?  You mentioned the hussar mortor team sucoming to the heat any other effects that had a effect on the outcome at all?
