Four mission objectives,
DoW deployment.
Battle field (set up by
GW employee): The
DA fortress was placed in the centre - see below.
Turn 1: Michael deployed to one side of the fortress, Vindicators in front, Rhinos behind,
all Dreads on the sides; three in the centre (incl.) Bjorn and one on the flank.
There was no shooting as I deployed nothing.
My army entered the scene... shooting went bad.
In
turn 2, Bjorn ordered the Dreads to take on the approaching Rhinos but only two were able to target them.
They failed.
The
DP's commanded the
EC army to approach the enemy. The two Rhinos on the flank moved at full speed, while the Rhino in the centre get cover from the fortress.
The Obliterators opened fire and destroyed one Vindicator and immobilizing another.
In
turn 3, Bjorn commanded the
GH unit at the flank to disembark and take on the closest enemy Rhino.
Obviously, the
GH got confused by the smoke-launching Rhino and so their meltas bounced off.
Bjorn decided not to advance towards the enemy. The shooting killed one (or two) Obliterators.
The Emperor's Children army advanced, the Termies entered the Fortress and were now rather close to the Dreads including Bjorn itself.
The
NM unit whose Rhino was shot by
GH's disembarked. One
DP lashed the
GH unit in front of the
NM's so that their shooting with the doom siren killed 4 of these nordic warriors. Then the
NM unit charged winning combat.
At the same time, another
GH unit approaching the centre was lashed by the 2nd
DP.
This unit was obviously misled and they seemed to flee from the battlefield.
The Obliterators made short work with the 2nd Vindicator and a shooty Dread in the centre.
In
turn 4, Bjorn ordered the
GH unit with plasma guns to help out their fellows in
cc.
However, the
NM unit held their ground.
The
DP commanded the
NM Rhino squad to disembark and help out their fellows in
cc.
These guys charged and the situation for the
GH's got grim.
In the centre, one
DP lashed the
GH unit into charging range.
These poor warriors got charged by the
DP and the Termies.
The
GH's managed to kill the
DP, but the Termies made short work with them.
Moreover, the other
DP charged the Vindicator in the centre destroying it.
In
turn 5, Bjorn and his fellow Dread charged the
DP (that popped the Vindicator).
The
DP got almost knocked down with one wound left.
The
GH's in the melee with the
NM's got killed finally,
and both decimated
NM units moved towards the objective.
The Termies charged into the melee with the
DP and Dreads and finally the power fists took Bjorn and his fellow down.
At the end of the battle, the Space Wolves lost all but one Rhino,
while the
NM army was rather intact, loosing 2
DP's, 2 Obliterators, a few
NM's and Termies.
Death to the followers of the false Emperor! 
"THOUGH I FACE THE SHADOWS OF THE WARP, I SHALL FEAR NO EVIL, I SHALL FEAR NO FOE!FOR I HAVE MOAR DAKKA THAN YOU, BITCHES!"
