Turn 1
He moves around a bit, misses with Krak missile and starcannons out of range
I shoot his viper with my pred and it makes cover
Land raider wounds avatar

Turn 2
He moves around a lot – vipers bounce off side of my razorback, wraithlord stuns razorback, Krak missile misses my land raider
My rhino moves forward for 1st time and immobilises itself on terrain
I heavy flamer his guardian jetbikers figuring they AV5 and wound 5 however they AV3 so kill 2 (remaining 3 fail leadership and jetbike off the board)
Pred stuns a viper
Land raider takes another wound from avatar, it has 2 left

Turn 3
He does heaps more moving but still keeping everying in back right in cover in the back corner – none of it threatens me.
ML into my land raider bounces off
Wraithlord shoots into my rhino takes storm bolter
Viper on my right takes a heavy flamer
Brightlance immobilises same speeder

I move very little
Land raider shoots his avatar again taking him to 1 wound, uses POMS to fire heavy bolters at farseer who now running by himself and takes 2 of 3 wounds off, Razorback heavybolter brasses up farseer again and wipes him out. Ouch.
Immobilised speeder hits viper with MM and explodes it
Predator weapons bounce off wraithlord

Turn 4
He keeps all his infantry to my back right in cover – its no threat to me – banshees, scorpions, dcannons – all ignored
Moves whats on my left a bit
Shoots KRak at my speeder but nothing, wraithlord weapons miss

I move forward
Landraider 12, vindi razorback both 6, speeders, rhino 12 – troops dismount from rhino
I finish the wraithguard and avatar and brass up a heap of guardians to my left

Turn 5
22 guardian shots and singing spear get launched at my speeder I left as a target to occupy this troops choice – all bounce off
He does little I brass up most things
My rhino with troops on one objective, razorback on a second, his guardians on a third.

We go to turn 6
Dcannons fire for first time at speeder getting 1 glance which is cover saved
Lance at razorback and misses
Singing spear misses land raider, assaults land raider gets a hit and glances to stun
