This player had the most amazing painted/converted army that I had ever seen. I seriously dropped my jaws when I first saw them. I'll ask at some point if he has got pictures of them online.
His army was basically a Death Guard army, lots of plague marines, plaguebearers and a amazing converted daemon prince.
This was the second game on the same city terrain board, and I think it was to my advantage. As both of our armies were mechanized, but I had the multimelta speeders to speed forward and disable his rhinos.
I was able to steal the initiative and started to move my army into position, covering the rhinos with my land raider. Took some pot shots but did more or less nothing. His vindicator did however manage to immobilize my land raider on turn 1 again. This is the draw back of using only 1 land raider, its a high str weapon magnet.
My land speeders flew straight towards his rhino trying to flank me, and wrecked it and killed several plague marines on the next turn. There was another rhino approaching on the same flank, but he managed to destroy both multimeltas on the speeders. But by flying away those flanking rhinos and their plague marines failed to do anything for the entire game.
On the other side of the table things weren't going as well, I did manage to kill a plaguebearer squad, but his plague marines and daemon prince assaulted my tactical marines and killing them after several rounds of combat.
His dreadnought went berserk and assaulted the land raider and wrecking it. The assault terminators destroyed it and then continued to destroy the vindicator.
It was really starting to look bad on the side with the daemon prince, but I was lucky and the game ended at turn 5.
Endgame:
4kp (Rhino, Vindicator, Dreadnought, Plaguebearers) to me, 2kp(Tactical Squad, Land Raider) to him.
Minor Victory
