The scenario played is "the relic". To win any player must have an infantry unit capture the Relic by moving into contact with it. The winner is the one who has a unit holding the relic at the end of the game.






Turn 1
The Drukhari takes the first turn. The wyches on foot advance close to the relic. Focused fire from five disintegrators and five shuriken cannons only reduce the Defiler by five wounds.

The Defiler regains a wound plus another two with the help of the Warpsmith. Obliterators deep strike. The Chaos take down both one raider and the ravager to one wound remaining and also killing a few wyches. The Defiler assaults the Wyches making reaching the Relic more difficult. 







Turn 2
The Harlequins now shoot and charge the Havocs killing all but two of them. The obliterators are reduced by one in number. Lelith and the wyches charge the berzerkers, killing a massive seven of their number!

The terminators destroy the Ravager while the warpsmith destroy the Raider with Machine curse. Bloodletters assault both Harlequin and Wyches, failing to kill more than a couple of the evasive Aeldari.










Turn 3
Lelith slay the Warpsmith in hand to hand combat and the combined force of skyweavers, warroirs and the Death jester kill the Obliterators in melee. Harlequins are causing casualties on the Bloddletters while saving most of the incoming damage.

The terminators advance and charge the wyches, but the defiler and the terminators struggle to kill the dodgy whyches. The Archon fails it shadow field save, now making him vulnerable for further damage.




Turn 4
The Harlequins kills the first unit of Bloodletters and continue their melee feast by assaulting the other unit of Bloodletters. The Archon is killed in Melee.

The terminators now kill the wyches and consolidate to secure the relic. The deamon prince inflict three wounds to Leilith.




Turn 5
After murdering the last bloodletters the Harlequin Charge the Defiler, inflicting 6 wounds to it with Harlequins kiss.

The deamon prince activate the last two chaos command points to strike before Lelith and killing her. 




Battered and on the brink to destruction, the remaining chaos forces secure the relic and teleport back to the Flagship!

Turn 1
The Aeldari win the roll for taking first turn. After shooting is conducted, four blood letters is killed and the rhino lost half it's wounds. The Iron warrior terminators deep strike to encircle the eldar and the other chaos units advance. In shooting two dark reapers  and a few guardians are killed. 





Turn 2
The Aeldari kills off the blood letters and most of the terminators in the shooting phase. The Vindicator goes down to a fusion pistol equipped harlequin riding its flying transport. In assault, the Solitare assault the Chaos lord. Chaos respond by charging guardians on both sides, with terminators and daemon prince respectively.






Turn 3
The last terminators are killed in shooting. Chaos in turn kill the sole surviving dark reaper exarch. The deamon prince is charged by the harlequin and brutally killed. The Lord and the Soliate is still fighting on, both well protected by their thick armour or illusional field.


Turn 4
The Eldar now advance and inflict some damage on the Hell blades as well as killing a handful of marines. The Solitare kills the chaos lord but is in turn shot to death by one of the Hell blade fighters. The other Hell blade takes three wounds off Yvraine.





Turn 5 
The eldar cleans up the table, destroying the Rhino and both Hell blades in their 5th turn. At the end of Chaos turn 5 only two space marines are still alive. We roll to see if there is a 6th turn, but the die ends up a "2" and the game ends, just preventing the Chaos from being utterly exterminated.
