Recon mission in game two of a tournament.  The board as it is read from my perspective, from left to right. 

Terrain:

Two hills opposite each other in deployment zones on far left.  A level 3 building (12"x12") just on his side of the middle.  A large rocky hill just on my side of center and just on the right side of center.  A small rocky hill opposite that is in his deployment zone and a large rocky hill in his far right deployment zone.

Deployment of Templars(from left to right):

Predator Annhilator obscured by rocky hill on my left followed by 2 squads of terminators on the hill.  14-man crusader squad with attached chaplain behind the building.  Cusader, with squad and EC, to my right of the building.  Dread on small rocky hill, vindicator next to that and Predator Destructor next to that.

Deployment of Big Bugs (from left to right):

6 stealer on side of rocky hill opposite the annhilator.  Two 6-man stealer squads on right side of rocky hill opposite building.  Barbed strangler carnie next, CC elite carnie next, walking tyrant and guard next, CC elite carnie next,  6-man squad of stealers behind him.  Dakka fex next to carnie with flying tyrant behind him.  2 venom cannon carnies in rocky hill and 6 stealer on far right side in the open.

Recap:

His annhilator and both termie squads are facing off again 3 stealer squads and the tail end of a carnie line.  The walking crusader squad is poised to go into the building, which splits the battle field in 2.  On the right side is a full crusader, dread, vindy, and destructor. 

Bugs are mostly near the center, but just to the right of the building, which is about 10"-12" away (it's angled)

Bugs go first

6 Stealers in front of annhilator turn around and run behind rocky hill and towards the center of the line.  All bugs in the middle advance to the top right corner (NE on a compass).  Stealer just reach the cover of the building with a fleet move.  Tyrant jumps in front of carnie line in front of the vehicles and the far right stealer squad makes it to the base of the large rocky hill with a fleet move.

Venom cannon glancing 6's the crusader.  Dread is stunned.  Flying tyrant kills 4 of the squad which disembarks with devourers and torrents of fire the fist out of there.

Templars move up to the flying tyrant who is literally 2" from a line of 6 carnies and the walking tyrant.  The annhilator and termies move forward to try and see around the building.  Pred whiffs and termies only kill 2 stealer who made it into the building.  Lots of shots on the flying tyrant put one wound on him.  Vindy scatters and kills 4 stealers behind the carnie line.  Templars assault the tyrant who implant attacks the EC and kills him. 

Bugs continue to move around the right side of the building.  A shot immobilises the vindy.  A good fleet roll gets 3 stealers into the destructor, but whiff in CC.  The 4 stealers in the building move out and assault some termies and kill 2 with no return deaths.  Stealers on my right move over the rocky hill and towards the 2 termie squads.  Everyone else in the middle jumps the squad around the flying tyrant and d6 nicely to get extra movement when the unit is wiped out. 

Templars move the dread off the small rocky hill and shoot, then assault a CC fex.  Fex takes 3 wounds and whiffs in the return attacks.  Vindy misses.  Destructor shoots up the stealer squad that assault it and the 2 stealers left run.  Unengaged termie squad whipes out the stealers coming over the rocky hill.  Annhilator shoots a carnie behind the building, but it saves.  14-man walking crusader squad moves through the building and assaults the barbed fex which had wandered in the building.  Fex dies and the unit consolidates into the building.  Stealers are beaten in CC with the termies and they run towards the tyrants.

Dakka fex reaches the immobilised vindy and blows it up. 5 left over stealers jump the dread in CC with the fex and blow it up.  Both tyrants and another CC fex turn to the 14 templars in the building.  7 die from shooting and they charge into the TMC's.  Flying tyrant joins the fun and only 3 templars are left.  Chappy dies to a fex attack.  One venom cannon fex backs up past the building and shoots the annhilator and immobilises it.  The other venom fex moves closer to the destructor and stuns it in shooting.

Termies shoot the venom fex that shot the annhilator and kill it with 4 rends.  Annhilator gets a shot off against the fex who took 3 wounds againt the dread and kills the fex.  The 3 templars in the building die to the TMC's who all consolidate closer to the termies.

4 Stealers and a CC fex move out to assault the 2 termie squads.  Flying tyrant moves to assault the annhilator and blows it up.  Stealer kill the last 2 termies from one squad and fex only kills one termie in fresh squad.  Venom cannon fex kills destructor in CC.

Templar termies put more wounds on CC fex in HtH.

Bugs swarm into the enemy deployment zone.  Stealers join the CC fex against the last termies and whipe them out as the termies kill the fex as he kills them.
