To celebrate the release of planetstrike a few months ago our store ran a planetstrike tournament. They only had one bastion and one interceptor guns between about six boards and wouldn't let us use strategems so could have been better. As mentioned earlier it was a few months ago so is a little hazy so sorry if it's not very descriptive but here it is.

My List

Librarian
Plasma Pistol
Epostilary

Inquisitor lord
Boltgun, Power Weapon, Artificer Armour, Psycannon Bolts, Frag and Krak Grenades and Targetters
2 Ocolytes with Artificer Armour
2 Gun Servitors with Heavy Bolters
2 Mystics
1 familiar

Tactical Squad
+ 5
Flamer
Missile Launcher

Tactical Squad
+ 5
Melta Gun
Missile Launcher
Plasma Pistol

Whirlwind
Storm Bolter
Hunter Killer Missile

Vindicator
Hunter Killer Missile
Extra Armour
Dozer Blade

Game 1 vs. Chaos Space Marines with me defending

His List

Abbadon

1 Greater Daemon

3 Termie Champions

7 Pluage Marines with one Melta Gun

7 Pluage Marines with one Flamer

1 Chaos Spawn

Deployment

Terrain Spread around with the missile combat squads in a ruin with a good vantage point. Whirlwind went next to them. Melta Combat Squad + Librarian go near one objective with flamer combat squad and vindicator on the edge of the board. Inquisitor within range of entire army for mystics.

Firestorm kills one familiar, two marines and nothing else due to bad scatter.

Turn 1 (him)

Everything deep strikes and then fails to kill anything and is out of assault range (one terminator dies and Abbadon is wounded).

Turn 1 (me)

He loses 2 or 3 pluage marines to librarian and combat squads.
Spawn Dies to Gun Servitors Heavy Bolter Fire.
Loses almost all of a squad of pluage marines to vindicator fire.
Loses 2 more marines in assault to one tactical marine lost and the librarian wounded.

Turn 2 (him)

Abbadon moves closer. He and his pal kill the mystics of the retinue from shooting
Greater Daemon Comes out of a terminator champion and heads towards the centre objective.
Pluage Marines Head towards the vindicator. They then blow it's demolisher cannon off. They then stop it from shooting.
Remaining Pluage Marines in the assault with Librarian die for no return casualties so the wounded librarian and sergeant go to try to stop the greater Daemon.

Turn 2 (me)

Librarian moves towards greater daemon along with both combat squads. All the combat squads and the whirlwid shoots and do 2 wounds to it.
Vindicator tank shocks the pluage marines and squishes the last man (the sergeant).
Inquisitor and co. shoot at abbadon but fail to do anything so hope he's out of charge range.

Turn 3 - 6

Abbadon rips trough the inquisitors retinue and the inquisitor and goes for my tactical squads. Split up to take down more after i use combat tactics to fall back, regroup and and shoot at their assailant's promptly failing (the only reason they weren't already dead was abbadon wounded himself.
The greater Daemon killed everything I sent at me.

Turn 7 (me)

Vindicator tank shocks the greater daemon of the objective (out of 3'') but couldn't get him to do death or glory.
Whirlwind tank shocks abbadon and the termie but neither death or glory.

He wins 1 objective to none.

Game 2 vs. Daemmons with daemons defending

His List

Epidemus

Kugath

4 squads of pluagebearers (cant remember numbers) with the largest having epidemus some icons and a few instruments

squad of bloodletters with icon

Nurgle Daemon Prince with iron hide, breath and the other upgrades didn't take part in the battle.

we did use strategems so he had minefield and i had darken the skies

Deployment

He placed one piece of terrain in the middle as an objective.

Firestorm = 4 craters around the board

turn 1 (me)

Everything scatters but no mishaps.
Vindicator trundles on behind the inquisitor.

Turn 1 (him)

Due to very bad rolling the 3 pluagebearer squads without epidemus and the bloodletters come down and lose half the bloodletters and abot a third of the pluagebearers to mystics + vindicator.
No shooting and doesn't run as it would activate the minefield.

Turn 2 (me)

Whirlwind comes on. Librarian moves up with flamer combat squad to send one squad of pluagebearers back to the warp. Other combat squads kill of the pluagebearer squad threatening them and vind and inquisitor reduce the last one to three men. Whirlwind kills bloodletters to the icon bearer.

Turn 2 (him)

Everything else comes down (with epididemus scattering into move and shoot range of the vindi but out of mystics range). Daemon Brince and Kugath are wounded and the last bloodletter is killed by the blast dedicated to Kugath. Pluagebearers run for the inquisitor and Kugath kills the flamer squad (leaving the librarian alone but out of charge range of kugath. Pluagebearers charge and then realise that they are having to get past 2 + saves so I win combat by one (this combat continues until turn 4).

Turn 3 (me)

Whirlwind shoots at kugath failing to do anything.
Vindi kills a number of epidemus's squad
Tactical squads somehow manage to kill the daemon prince to my great surprise.
Librarian who hase been really anoying to them (null zone) heads for centre.

Turn 3 (him)

Epidemus is almost at the centre and so is kugath who kills 3 mirines at range from a missile squad.

Turn 4 (me)

Vind heads for the centre looking for a way to capture it without getting killed but only move 6'' and reduce ku'gath to two wounds and Epidemus to one wound and 4 pluagebearers. Librarian Kills another one after moving right onto the objective.

Turn 4 (him)

Epidemus and Kugath slaughter the hated Librarian and consolidate to get cover but block the objective. The inquisitor is finally free without any losses (artificer armour FTW).

Turn 5 (me)

My army focuses fire on epidemus and co reducing them to epidemus and one more man and the inquisitor charges and hopes he isn't cut down as he is now holding the objective. No one dies (stupid 3 + feel no pain).

Turn 5 (him)

Kugath joins in and kills the mystics and familliar and epidemus kills an ocolyte while no casualties are dealt in return but his ability allaws him to hold (but he's now killed 20 so if the game goes on I'm probably doomed).

Roll and it comes up as a two (pheew).

Two close games and I had great fun. I was the only one who had an army list ready so we had to wait an hour so we ran out of time so they canceled the last game and didn't declare a winner.

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
