Image
 Deployment: In this scenario the white scars are launching a 'grand assault' and must capture the three buildings on the enemies half of the board. Concentrating on their left the white scars have three squads of bikers, each with a flamer and heavy bolter attack bike, and led by the captain. Screening their right and center are three land speeders, two with multi melta and heavy flamers and one with heavy bolter and assault cannon. The eldar defenders have put black guardians and the seer council in the tanks on the left, black guardians and the wraithlord in the factory in the center, with the avatar and warp spiders in the alley between.

On the other flank Henry catches Pte Cooke unawares and puts a pistol round through his arm. The Catterick Garrison's Bren carrier rolls onto the battlefield, but the crew are forced to 'button up' As bullets from Tim's scoped rifle whizz by, missing them by inches.
