So I had another game against dptdexys and his nurgle black legion

I said I wanted to try out fortification heavy and went with the following list:

Scouts
Scouts
Devs with assault centurion
Devs with assault centurion
Tacticals with bastion, assault centurion, supreme commander
Thunderfires
Thunderfires
Vindicators with hunter
Thunderbolts
Thunderbolts
minefields + bunkers
minefields + bunkers
minefields + bunkers

Image
Setup, I tried to surround the objectives in my half with minefields, replaced the blitz with the bastion, and put both thunderfire batteries on overwatch

turn 1

Image
I put both sets of devs on overwatch, dave put hellblades on CAP

Image
I put tacticals and garrisoned scouts on overwatch, Dave doubles feral drawing the overwatch shots from the thunderfires and devs, it loses its shields and kills a couple of devs

Image
Tbolts attempt to shoot warhound, get CAP-ed and suffer 3 hits, they jink and one saves

Image
chosen double up and put a blast marker on thunderfires, also putting them in their ZoC

Image
tbolts attempt to intercept hellblades, they miss with all 4 shots :(

Image
Havocs double up and place a BM on thunderfires

Image
Scouts double up and put a BM on havocs

Image
Feral #2 draws out the thunderfires and devs overwatch, losing shields and taking 2 BMs, it hits the devs but only takes out the single rhino

Image
Vindicators single up and hit warhound, they do 1 point of damage and it breaks

Image
Retinue doubles up and puts a BM on thunderfires

Image
second retinue singles and engages thunderfires, wiping them out

End of turn, all aircraft flyoff without incident, most stuff rallies and removes most blast markers, feral #2 rallies

Turn 2

Image

both terminators teleport in, left hand one takes a single BM

Marines win initiative, right hand devs elect to engage terminators before they can summon daemons and engage the intermingled devs and vindicators, they fight one round of combat, kill a terminator but the blast markers mean they draw the rolloff, terminators then get into combat and have their macro attacks....
Image
devs die....

Image
broken terminators hide in the bunkers :\

Image
Left hand devs retain and engage terminators... it does not go well.... a single broken rhino survives

Image
retinue engages vindicators and wipes them out

Image
Terminators summon daemons and give thunderfires a spanking

Image
Scouts sustain fire and manage to plug the sorcerer and a stand of havocs

Image
Tbolt tries to ground attack and fails (abysmal pic and lighting at the venue)

Image
Feral whoops the scouts and breaks them

Image
Tbolt breaks havocs, hellblades intercept and shoot one down

Image
Scouts double up and shoot at the terminators in an attempt to wipe them out

That's where I stopped taking pics, I was down to a single broken rhino, 2 broken thunderfires, 2 stands of scouts, and a tactical formation on my blitz, there was nothing I could do to stop Dave claiming a 3-0 win with T&H, DTF and TSNP

Thoughts and discussion here
