The Grey Knights player (Leonard) won the roll off and deployed (standard pitched battle, 4 objectives). He deployed one Strike Squad inside the Stormraven along with the Dreadnought, one strike squad deployed on left field behind cover, the Paladins, Librarian and Grand Master all deployed behind the ruins of the building in the above picture. 

The objectives where placed in the four corners of the map

I deployed my footslooging squad into the Fortress of Redemption, then a Ravager and Dissie Ravager next to each other in cover, Vect's transport behind a ruin, Reavers where place don the left side of the field, both mounted Kabalite squads where placed on the right, the wyches on the left and the trueborn squad in their venom in the middle. 

I seize initiative. 


Drug roll gives me Hypex.


Turn One (DE)


Wyches and a squad of Warriors Flat Out up left field, Wyches stop behind cover, the Warrior's Raider is out in the open.  Reavers all Turbo boost like a tidal wave of drug crazed bikers. Vect's Raider Flat Outs! far right, landing behind a rock about 20 inches away from the paladin squad. The Remaining Warrior Squad and Trueborn zip down center-field. 


One Dark Lance Ravager targets the Stormraven, blowing it up, and a the second DL ravager immobilizes the Dreadnought. 

Turn One (GK) 


Everyone stays put, the Dreadnought blows up a DL Ravager, killing two of the foot kabalites in the explosion. The Paladins shoot and kill 4 reavers, while a Strike Squad blows up the far left Kabalite Raider.  


Turn Two (DE) 
A reaver squad flies over a Strike Squad, killing one. Wyches hop out of their raider, and run. The far left kabalite squad begins hoofing it back to my table edge, as the second mounted Warrior squad and Trueborn park in front of the Paladins behind cover. Vect stays where he is to act as a fire magnet. The wyches assault, killing one Grey Knight.
Sniper checking things out 

Turn Two (GK) 
The not tied up Strike Squad opens fire and kills 3 reavers. The Paladin's shoot down the remaining Warrior squad's raider, none are pinned, and I place the warriors so that they receive cover from its wreckage. The Dreadnought casts Fortitude and immobilizes a Dark Lance ravager. 

Turn Three(DE)
Vect's raider flies around some more, to try and draw fire the following turn. The now empty wyches' raider flies over to the downed Warriors, and the embark. The Remaining Reavers blow up the Dreandought with the last remaining Heat Lance, the Dissie Ravager wipes out the not in CC strike squad, while the Wyches fight the remaining Strike Squad to a standstill.

Turn Three (GK)
Really short turn, the Paladins shoot down Vect's raider and 2 Incubi die, and the Strike Squad is killed by the wyches, who consolidate into the objective.


Turn Four (DE)
The now mounted Kabalite Warriors zoom back to the bottom right objective, giving me three out of four.

Turn Four (GK)
Paladins blow up the Venom and kill all the trueborn.

This is effectively the end of the game, there's two more turns where nothing really happens. The paladins move into the open to try and reach the wyches, but can't. 

Game ends with me in control of 3 objectives, while the Grey Knights where down to some paladins, and had no objectives.
