Right, before I was so rudely interrupted by a horrid gall bladder, I got a battle in the other day. It was a victory points battle againts my old nemesis. It was random lenght, which turned out to be 4, no objective really. I got hammered until my last turn. Before this, I lost my DP which failed me miserably again, and some Death Guard got picked off by sniper fire, and my Slaanesh Raptors got wiped out (although this was my fault, they were designed to pick off weakened opponets caught in the open, but I was desperate and sent them on a suicide charge against the DA Command Squad. (They killed one). However, my Defiler lived to my last turn, hit the Command Squad with a Battle Cannon round, and completely destroyed them. Then my 5 man anti-tank Raptors jumped over some terrain, fired 2 meltas at a Land Raider, and it exploded, not scathing my Raptors, but killing 6 of a 10 man DA tac squad! That was the gist of it, I ended up winning, only because the Chaos powers blessed my dice in the last turn. I'll add more details when I can, it was one of my favorite battles.
