Arks , cryptek and spider occupied 2-d and 3d floor of a ruin with a point inside. Nightbringer went alongside destroyers and transcendent ctan placed close to the arks behind scarabs. Dreads spread across the front, scouts occupied the ruins near flags.
Dreads got first turn, moved forward, killed scarabs, 1 destroyer and inflicted 6 wounds to transcendent ctan. Scored a point and needed to take a point secured by the arks away from them.
Destroyer got back up. Transcendent ctan moved forward, nightbringer and destroyers shifted towards the point a bit. One ark inflicted 16 wounds to an ironclad one-shotting it. The rest of the shooting and ctan powers killed a couple scouts and brought another ironclad down to 3 wounds and a contemptor down to 4. Transcendent ctan charged the wounded ironclad but t8 saved it and return attacks finished the ctan off. It exploded dealing 3 mortal wounds to a nearby contemptor and 1 to an ironclad.
Ironclad moved towards ctan, the rest of the dreads moved forward once again, techmarine fixed 3 wounds to a 4-wound contemptor. Shooting killed 2 destroyers and inflicted 8 wounds to an ark.
One destroyer got back up, the ark healed 5 wounds. Ctan moved towards the half-dead ironclad, destroyers jumped to a second level of a nearby ruin. By that time mighty dreads have amassed a victory point advantage and had scouts about to score another d3 points for holding the flag for 2 consecutive turns, so some shooting had to be dedicated at them. Necron shooting inflicted a wound to a liutenant, killed one contemptor and luckilly, one scout survived destroyer shooting thanks to fnp and as necron position wasn't strong enough to reliably score many points, they had to shoot a doomsday ark at a single scout. That saved another dread but marines didn't score a d3 point objective. On the other hand, arks were pretty safe from dreads on their high floors of ruins. Nightbringer decided to finish the half-dead ironclad off but t8 saved it yet again. It inflicted 4 wounds to a nightbringer.
Marines had 2 contemptors, an ironclad, 2 wittled down scout squads and characters left. They decided to score as many points as possible before going down. So, one dread moved towards the ruin with a spider, cryptek and 2 arks another one moved towards the nightbringer fighting an ironclad, jumppack characters moved inside a ruin to charge the cryptec, spider and an arc. Shooting barely managed to kill all 3 destroyers. Captain charged a cryptek, killed it and conaolidated towards an ark. Liutenant charged a spider, wiffed all his attacks and got killed with return attacks. One contemptor didn't make it to combat because he had to walk around the ruin and another one helped the ironclad to finish a nightbringer off. Nightbringer exploded and inflicted a couple wounds to a contemptor, ironclad got saved by fnp.
Arc fell back from a captain and shot him to bits, another arc shot 4 wounds away from a techmarine and 6 wounds from a contemptor leaving just one. Spider decided to finish off the contemptor, charged in, inflicted a wound but it got saved by fnp and contemptor tore the spider apart.
Techmarine and scouts fell back, ironclad hid inside a ruin, contemptors remained stationary to shoot at arcs but didn't do much.
If you ever play with "that guy" remember this :
"there may be times when you are not sure exactly how to resolve a situation that has come up during play. When this happens, have a quick chat with your opponent and apply the solution that makes the most sense to both of you (or seems the most fun!), If no single solution presents itself, you and your opponent should roll off, and whoever rolls the highest gets to choose what happens." BRB pg 180
