This one was ugly. 1750 pts.
Orks: 2 battelwagons each with boyz/nob (1 also with mad doc grotsnik), trukk with super-duper nob squad and warboss, 3 killa kans, and snikrot and his lads
marines: 3 tac. squads, 2 scout squads, 1 dreadnaught w/drop pod, libarian with terminators deepstrikingm 3 landspeeders.

capture and control, dawn of war deployement.

I deploy first. warboss and nob/trukk deployed in the middle of the table behind a big building; 20 boyz on table edge waiting for battlewagon to drive on. He deploys two scout squads 18" away from trukk nobs (why???).
He seizes initiative.

Turn 1
marines: snipers shoot at trukk to no avail. other marines walk on.
orks: kans walk on and run. battlewagon drives on 12" and boyz/grotsnik jump out and kill 1 sniper squad. trukk drives 12" and nobs/boss kill other squad. poor deployment choice for marine player.

Turn 2
marines: dreadnought arrives via drop pod right next to landraider/grotsnik mob. shoots at nob squad. most everything else shoots at nob/warobss. two nobs die.
orks: snikrot arrives...ouch. walks on behind tac. squad holding objective. 2-3 marines die from burnas and then 4 more in the ensuing assault. He fails LD and flees off the table edge. Kans drop a landspeeder. landraider rams dreadnought without effect.

Turn 3
marines: librarian and terminators fail to arrive. dreadnought wrecks 1 landraider. grotsnik and his boyz pile out--won't be good for dreadnought. skimmers and other shooting kill 2 more nobs. orks pass LD check.
orks: nob/boss squad and kommandos waagh and wipe another tac. squad in the assault phase. kans run. grotsnik and his boyz wreck dreadnought.

Turn 4
marines: librarians and terminators arrive. he drops them between kommandos and warboss/nobs (why?). termies kill 8 or so kommandos with shooting but they make their ld check.
orks: ork player offers rule change. if the marines change to chaos marines, they will get +2 to all rolls for the remainder of the game and be allowed to put 500 pts. back on the table. marine player declines offer.
orks slay termies, kans kill 3 marines in remaining tac. squad with grotzookas. Marine player concedes

lessons learned:
poor tactics with scout-snipers. i made similar mistakes with deff koptas in deployment in the past. it hurts.
i wanted a test of my battlewagon list and didn't get it. In this rout they did fine. I wonder though....

Well, you did well... ( was that a pun?) your opponent did NOT do well. There's not much more to say about it. With infiltrators, you need to be perfect at deploying, but you don't infiltrate, so unless you're going to be forwarding these posts to your opponent, there's not much reason for me to say such things.

Was ramming with the LR the only way to get your guys close to it? If so, then that was a very smart move, if not... then I think it was a mistake.

I like how you tried to convert the guy to chaos... that was funny
