Really enjoyable battle report. As you said, I could easily see this game having gone the other way but sometimes it does fall down to the luck of the die. I feel it was a really good match up and both sides played well, though my favored side definitely won. Remembering the drop pod early on could have been devastating to the Dark Eldar too, it's always a shame when an oversight potentially changes the direction of a game.

It could have had the space marine player not declared that the dp and iron clad were coming in separately. If it were me I would have dropped the IC in such a way it would be able to get 2-3 raiders with the heavy flamer. Then spotlight the one you are aiming at. Have the thunder fire throw its 4 s6 templates right into the cluster of vehicles targeting the spotted one. It could have been very very different.
