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.
