Round 1
Nothing but movement

Round 2

1b)Next the remaining 2 AE tossed their grenades at Valguard and managed one wound but no dammage to the surrounding models.

2a-b)The Deathstalkers missed their chance to finish off the AE allowing them to take aim at Raelin and cause one wound.

3a-b)from atop the ramparts Syvarris took aim and knocked off another of the AE all the while DW9K moved closer to the east gate.


Round 3
1a-b)Initiative to the attackers, but the AE failed to cause any further dammage to Raelin before Syvarris took the last man down.

2a-3b)DW9K, the Gladiadatrons, and Blastatrons moved further into position as Syvarris waited for any to come within range.


Round 4
1a)Initiative to the attackers. DW9K gets within range of the east gate and inflicts one wound.

1b)The Deathstalkers, Raelin, and Valguard all exit the main gate to intercept the Gladiadatrons and Blastatrons.



2a-3b)The Blastatrons miss their attempt at the Deathstalkers and the east gate withstands another onslaught from DW9K.

1b)The Deathstalkers retaliate and kill one Gladiadatron.

1b) Taking advantage the Deathstalkers take down the last Gladiadatron.

2a-3b) DW9K inflicts another wound (now 5) to the east gate, with a triple skull role from the Deathstalkers taking down another Blastatron.


Round 7
1a-b)Init to the attackers. Blastatrons continue their futile shooting at the Deathstalkers, but this time the DSs miss as well.
