Necrons vs Chaos marines, mostly Khorne with a Lash prince in the mix. Not a whole report, mostly a slide show, but a few of what I view as the key moments.
First turn I get six hits and six wounds with Heavy Destroyers on his Prince. He makes six 5++ saves. Normal Destroyers shoot at him, and he fails five out of ten 3+ saves.
I keep my guys back around ~13 inches away from his Berserkers, outside their max charge range. His Lesser Demons summon in, a full 6" forward from the unit, and after wrapping two circles of demons around the first, they're now less than 6" from me. It was a painful lesson for my first time seeing Lesser Demons. He gets charges off on a unit of Heavy Destroyers, Destroyers, and Warriors.
Same time he's getting his charges in, his Oblits Deep Strike, and fire three Lascannon shots at my Monolith. One hit, one pen, ka-BOOM!
Oh, and the pictures are at no particular intervals. Just when enough guys moved or died to make a decently different shot.

Can't say as I've ever had a post take ~20 minutes to upload... Can't say as I've ever abused the attachment option to this extent before either though.

Destroyers. I've also got a full five man painted, and two full three man Heavy Destroyers painted who are done in the same style. It's nice now that you mention it that the unpainted ones are framed so prominently in those shots.

I'll admit, that is one of my favorite pics in the series. My friend's favorite too. He quite literally laughed out loud when he saw it. My other favorite is where you can see him holding the heavy flamer template over a unit of Necrons that were Trying to veil away from stuff.
