Chaos Turn 1
Thanks to night-fighting everything was out of range.
Dark Eldar turn 1
Both Talos moved and ran towards the middle.
The Scourge advanced towards the Predators with the Reavers boosting and spreading across to give the scourge and the Talos some cover.
The other Reaver squad did the same on the other side to give the other Talos a cover save from the forgefiend(Not that they needed it as the plasma is only 24 inch range).
Both raiders stayed where they were shifting slightly for a jink save.
Chaos turn 2
The Khorne Terminators and Chaos Lord appeared via deep strike and then wiffed their shooting at the raider only doing one glance. I made two jink saves.
The Forgefiend killed two Reavers with its autocannons, strength 8 autos, a small segment of the Cultists also fired at the Reavers but failed to wound with any.
The Khorne Beserkers advanced cautiously towards the middle almost temped to risk a charge on the Reavers, but thanks to the proximity of the ominous Talos decided against it.
The Predators opened up at the Reavers but only killed one.
Dark Eldar turn 2
The Grots and Succy Disembarked and liquified the Terminators getting ap 2, roasting two, the reavers opened up and killed all the Remaining Terminators leaving the exposed Chaos lord on two wounds. The Wyches and Grots with the Succy then charged the lone chaos lord, i refused the challenge and only just managed to take his last wound. Both units consolidating. With the Reavers using their 2d6 assault move to get behind cover.
The Reavers advanced and heat lanced the Predator, all three penetrating and exploding it several times over, and then withdrew using their 2d6 assault move away from the Khorne Beserkers behind the tower.
The Scourge hit 4 times did 4 glances but thanks to my placement of the Reavers he saved two with the cover save.
Chaos Turn 3
Reeling from his over ambitious loss of his Chaos Lord and Terminators, the Khorne Beserkers ran away from the Talos, and the Predator moved out of the Reavers melta range.
The Forgefiend exploded the raider.
Dark Eldar Turn 3
Both Reaver squads cut sick and bladevaned the cultists only 7 of the 30 remained, and they failed their moral test and fled.
The Scourge took the last hull point off the Pred.
The Talos advanced with one running and the other one liquifying 3 Khorne Beserkers but at only ap 4 it failed to even singe their toe hairs.
The Warriors and Wyches both advanced to their respective objectives.
The Raider picked up the Grots and sped over to the action next to the Scourge.
Chaos turn 4
Running out of options the chaos player decided it was time to be bold.
The Forgefiend advanced on the Reavers and fired at them, the plasma getting hot and stripping a hull point, before failing to make the 5 inch charge despite fleet.
The Khorne Beserkers continued to retreat from the Talos, scared out of their minds.
The other Khorne unit moved across the board and tried to charge the Reaver unit however they failed the charge.
The cultists rallied and fired into the Reavers killing one.
Dark Eldar turn 4
The Reaver squad moved behind the Forgefiend and made swift work of it, exploding it then used their 2d6 assault move to get behind cover.
Both Talos advanced on the Khorne squad with one of them running, one of the Talos liquified 5 marines, it was ap 3 but could only wound twice despite rerolls. The talos then promptly failed its 7 inch charge.
The Grots disembarked with the Succy and moved in position to assault the Khorne Beserkers, the Reavers and Scourge shot at the Khorne Beserkers, killing all but 3, with the Grots and Reavers assaulting and killing them all. Both units consolidating.
Chaos turn 5
The Khorne Beserker unit assaulted the Grots doing 4 wounds, killing one, with the Succy and Khorne Champion challenge resulting in no wounds. Much to the chaos players dismay the Grots and Succy fled but thanks to I8 the Grots leapt clear with an amazing display of acrobatics with barrel rolls and back flips.
Dark Eldar turn 5
The Reavers shot and charged the remaining cultists and wiped them.
The Talos, Reavers and Scourge made short work of the remaining Khorne Beserkers, as my Talos finally manager to get their target..
