so I've defeated the "Road to Hades" mission but I had to do it with 12 dreadnoughts ( 8 standard & 4 of the hellfire variety), 4 squads of standard Terminators, a sternguard squad, a command squad, 2 scout squads and 3 groups of landspeeders, so now i have to conduct the next mission " Eumendies Defense" with a similar force,...any tips?? or do you think i should start the campaign over with a more balanced force?? Courage and Honour!

Well, my dreads carried the field, with 3 river crossings consisting each of 2 avenues , each crossing was held by 2 standard dreads with a hellfire in suppoprt and the huge hole in my eastern perimeter was held by 3 dreads, 3 terminators and the standard armored marines. The Orks threw unit after unit against my thin blue line but it held....damn, dreads can take a lot of punishment.

Here's the map:

On the Eumendies Defense, did you get the Blood Angels reinforcements? Those guys saved my life when I was playing that mission.

Its the secret objective of the first mission, save them there and they'll show up on that small city to the east of this mission.

On the 2nd turn of the first Ultramarines mission, you get a message from a Ultramarine (brother Artulo I think) saying that the Blood Angels are requesting help. What you need to do is make sure the victory hex the Blood Angels have remains in their control and that they survive.

If you do that, on this scenario (the river defense) you will get a message from the same Ultramarine saying that the Blood Angels wish to repay you for your help and they'll appear on the small city to the northeast of the map just in time to block the Orks attacking that flank.
