Long story short, it ended 0-0 on the last (failed) activation and there were some particularly strange dice on both sides - for example the plagueship failed to come in on the first turn even with an SC re-roll and my six Chaos Spawn (3+ armour) rolled twos for Every. Single. Bleeping. Save.

Although the Plagueship missed the juicy target of the Engines of Vaul who deployed exactly on the centre of my planned barrage by failing to activate, rolling 18 on 9+3d3 for the Plague Zombies that appeared after the barrage did help make up for it...

There's nothing quite like rolling all sixes at the right moment, is there? =-P

Thanks for the report!

Doh, 6+3d6 Zombies, so not quite such high odds.

I forgot to add any notes on deployment.

My BTS Retinue with the Contagion Engines garrisoned in the middle of my side, with the Retinue plus SC garrisoning far forwards on the left flank. The Walker formation (which was actually three Desecrators and a Defiler to make it closer to WYSIWYG) garrisoned off my Blitz objective. The two Retinues went of overwatch but in hindsight the Walkers should have instead of the BTS. With the spaceship and zombies off-table this left a measly four formations to deploy normally.

Richard kept the Vypers and two Wraithguard formations for the webway and had both sets of Rangers garrison across the middle front of his table half.
