Turn 2
Chaos

The Plaquebearer charges the Seargeant of Squad 2, who is paralized with fear caused by the horrific deamon.

2 member of Squad Occassus take a position with a better field of fire. The third trooper shoots frag rocket at the HQ Squad, killing the Standard Bearer.

Squad Depravare shoots at the HQ Squad. One soldier bites dust, but the other members remain steady

Vetustor fires his plasma gun through a window, but misses.

Squad Indefessio Concertatio holds its position.

The Plaque Bearer launches a strike with its vicious sword at a member of Squad 2, cutting his body. Then he moves on toward the flamer.

This turn, the Space Wolves arrive! A cheer goes up from the few remaining members of squad 2 who see the welcome sight of the grey armours. Shortly thereafter the cheer is taken up from the other remaining Guardsmen.

The Predator moves onto the hill towards Squad Occassus as does the Rhino. Out of the Rhino a Blood Claw Pack emerges as well a Iron Priest. Eager to get into close combat with Squad Occassus the driver of the Rhino drives to quick, because of the high vehicle speed 2 of the Marines die when they leave the tank.

A group of five scouts moves around the wood to reinforce the Imperial Guard Platoon.

The Predator trains it's right sponson heavy bolter on the members of Squad Occassus but the weapon jams two rounds in the chamber.

The left sponson heavy bolter engages Squad Depravare with a deadly hail of fire killing two.

The dual linked Lasgun in the turret attacks the Cybot. The laser beams rip of the arm and cause an explosion in the hull. That explosion causes the Cybots engine to explode crippling the ancient machine. The encased Chaos Marine is still able to operate the left arm and it's weapons.

The flame thrower operator again fires his weapon and engulfes the Plaguebearer in flames but again the Deamon takes no harm.

The bolter of the Rhino kills a Rocket Launcher operator.
