Turn 1 Chaos Hero phase: Both chaos sorcerer lords attempted to summon daemons (bloodletters and another daemon prince); but both failed. General placed inspiring presence on the blood reavers.

Turn 2 Stormcast movement phase: Retributors deploy to reinforce the stormcast cavalry. Lord castleant and gryph hound arrive in the rear to assassinate a chaos sorcerer lord.

Turn 2 Stormcast missile phase: Scyon the Blood Splattered is eliminated by focused missile fire.

Turn 2 Stormcast charge phase: Retributors fail their charge. Lord Castleant rolls a 9 to charge into the chaos sorcerer lord.

Game called on account of time. We declare it a tie, although if the game went on the forces of stormcast were going to suffer now that it was no longer a ranged combat game and is now a melee game.
