Just thought I'd transfer this thread over here...
Well, I was able to snap a couple of photos before my batteries died of the games on Saturday.
Three rounds of 3000 points each and it was a lot of fun!

My second game was *also* against Necrons... this time it was admutt's custom built force!
admutt's Necron War Horde - 3000 points
Tomb Complex
Phalanx #1 1 Wraith
Phalanx #2
Phalanx #3
Venators
Eques #1 3 Destroyers 3 Heavy Destroyers
Eques #2 3 Destroyers 3 Heavy Destroyers
Monolith #1 3 Obelisks
Monolith #2 3 Obelisks
Monolith #3 3 Obelisks
Monolith #4 3 Obelisks
Pylon #1
Pylon #2
The C'tan took great revenge on the Hive Mind this time, and at the end of turn 3 it was: Tyranids 2 (Blitz, T-n-H) vs Necron 3 (Blitz, BTS, T-n-H).
I only managed to get those 2 Victory Points using my only good luck of the game... the 4 Lesser Nodes claiming the various Necron Objectives actually won some assaults against savaged Phalanxes and the wins broke the Monolith formation that was contesting them! *laugh* A really great and tense game.
Of course, my camera died part way through the fight so I've only got these two snaps:

My third game was against BloodnGuts's fallen (and falling!) Marines of the Black Legion.
BnG and I are good friends and we've had lots of battles against each other, and it's the simple truth that I've won most of them. Knowing this, my girlfriend, the illustrious D-Girl, made him promise to kick my butt to keep my ego down! *laugh*
BloodnGuts's Black Legion of Armoured Might - 3000 points
Chosen Space Marines 1 - Khorne 1 Chaos Warlord 5 Chosen 1 Obliterator 6 Dreadclaws
Chosen Space Marines 2 - Khorne 1 Chaos Lord 6 Chosen 6 Dreadclaws
Black Legion Retinue - Khorne 1 Chaos Lord 8 Chaos Marines 8 Dreadclaws
Raptor Cult - Khorne 1 Chaos Lord 6 Raptors
Bike Company - Khorne 1 Chaos Lord 8 Bikes
Armoured Company - Khorne 1 Land Raider 5 Predators
Swiftdeath Interceptor - Khorne 3 Swiftdeaths
Ravager Titan 1 - Khorne
Devastation Class Cruiser - Khorne
Well, he kept his promise, though the fight was tough! The game went to tie-breaker after turn 4 with a tie of Tyranids 2 (DTF, TSNP) vs Black Legion 2 (BTS, DTF). (He could have won the game 3-2 with "TSNP" as I'd only gotten a single Hormagaunt onto his side of the board.. but his Swiftwinds failed to come on the board as the last activation of the game!) The tie-breaker was Tyranids 1210 vs Black Legion 2040.
Sorry I don't have any photos!
