I played IG my last game.

Annihilation was the mission type.

Deployment was Dawn of War.

I crushed a Space Wolves player.

I have been playing IG for a quarter of a year.

I have been playing Warhammer 40k for about six years now.

Annihilation. I think. <.< If there were objectives, we both sort of ignored them in favour of beating the stuffing out of each other.

Not sure. Dawn of War, I think.

That is a peril of relying on self-reporting. And my data pool isn't large enough (yet) for random sampling, but I think that people have been relatively frank about reporting. For instance, in this population (BoLS) there has been a reported 10 losses here versus 13 wins and five draws. As far as ratios go, I'd say that's not too slanted. We'll see how it goes with further data.
