4 Deffkoptas

His army list:
HQ:
Pedro Kanto
Master of the forge w/ power weapon and 2 tech servitors

Elites:
5 Stern guard

Troops:
10 Tactical squad
10 Tactical squad

Heavy support:
Dreadnought w/ multi melta
Dreadnought w/ multi melta
Dreadnought w/ assault cannon

It was Dawn of War and the battle was Take and Hold.

Turn 1
The space marine forces entered from his side of the board because of the rules that we were playing. The tactical squads positioned near the centre of the battle field opened fire down upon my orks killing two boyz and wounding a noob. Then pedro kanto used his bolter to shoot at my warboss but he only wounded him once.
My turn 1
The rest of my ork forces came onto the board and positioned themselves just near the edge of the board. The orks nearest to the tactical squads charged but were too far away to get into close combat. The nobz and warboss did the same. So instead they stood there and shot killing two space marines. Then the warboss shot with his blasta at pedero kanto but to no avail. The deffkoptas, that had just came onto the board, shot their missiles at the drednoughts immobilising one and making sure another couldn't shoot during the next turn.

Turn 2
At the start my friend rolled to see if the Servitors fixed the immobilised drednought with a three plus. He rolled the dice and it was a 3, so the dreadnought came back and moved towards the main battle with the other dreadnoughts. The tactical squads near the middle of the field charged my orkz. The 5-man squad charged one of my boyz squads and the other squad charged into my mob of 10 noobz and a warboss. His dreadnoughts then fired upon my deffkoptas but didn't kill any. In the combat phase pedero kanto charged my noobz squad of 5 with warboss. The nobz got first attack and wounded pedero kanto once. Then pedero kanto killed my warboss. In the other combat with the 10 noobz the space marines got first attack wounding the noobz twice. Then the nobz fought back with their choppas and killed 5 space marines.

My Turn 2
I moved my boyz closer to the combat but they couldn't reach there in one turn. I moved my deffkoptas into the corners of the board where the dreadnoughts couldn’t shoot at them but they could shoot at the dreadnoughts. They shot at the dreadnoughts and immobilised one. My squad of boyz, not in combat, shot at the stern guard and killed one. The nobz in close combat with pedero kanto had first attack. He fell to the noobz choppas, the noobz then consolidated two inches. The squad of space marines in combat with my other noobz scored two wounds but killed none of the noobz. The nobz then killed the remaining space marines and went backwards to recapture the objective they were holding before. My boyz wiped out the rest of the other tactical squad.

Turn 3
He moved his two dreadnoughts which reached my boyz. My boyz couldn’t do anything to the dreadnoughts so they had to stand there and die unless they ran away.
His sternguard shot down my only remaining warboss leaving the orks leaderless.
He couldn’t revive his dreadnought seeing as his servitors were in combat with my nobz. The dreadnoughts, in close combat with my orks, wiped out five of them but there was still 13 left. My nobz killed all his mechs and then he charged me with his sternguard who then killed all of my remaining nobz.

My turn 3
I tried shooting my deffkoptas at his immobilised dreadnought but they didn’t do anything. The other squad of deffkoptas that I had shot at the remaining sternguard and killed three of them leaving only one left. There was nothing my boyz could do about the dreadnoughts, they just killed five more of my boyz. I then rolled a leadership test for my boyz which they failed and ran away only to be chased down by the dreadnoughts.

Turn 4
He moved his dreadnoughts closer to my only remaining squad of boyz. Then from point blank range they totally whipped them leaving on 8 left. The dreadnoughts then charged them and killed them all. The dreadnoughts consolidated towards my noobz.

My turn 4
The battle was looking bad for me then. I shot the deffkoptas at the dreadnoughts trying to kill them before they could charge my nobz but was unsuccessful. The nobz shot at the remaining sternguard but didn’t kill him.


Turn 5
As you would have thought the dreadnoughts charged the nobz and killed them all. The remaining tactical squad also shot at and killed 2 of my deffkoptas.

My turn 5
I got my deffkoptas to make a mad dash to the objectives to try and draw the game.

Turn 6
The dreadnoughts shot at the deffkoptas and wiped out a whole squad but I still could draw the game.

My turn 6
The last deffkopta squad reached an objective and at that point I thought I might have drawn the game but then we rolled for an extra turn and unfortunately for me the roll was successful.

Turn 7
The dreadnought shot at my deffkoptas and killed three leaving only two left. Then the last sternguard was killed leaving the last one for the Tactical marines to take out.


Score: Space marines: 1
Orks: 0
Stupid Sternguard being scoring units.
Victory to the Space Marines

Can you convert any powerclaws? They would be really useful for your Ork Boyz nobs and give you Dread insurance.
