Custodian assault

 

The imperials land on Albitern after defeating the orbiting chaos fleet by the slightest margin and get to work purging the planet from the taint of chaos. With the hives in the hands of the heretics the invasion is spearheaded by the Legio Custodes and the knight of house cervaria
Thanks to their superior biology the praetorians of Terra endure a punishing fusillade in the first turn
Charging then into the foe covered by the crusader knight and the sagittarum squad
Next turn the bulk of the ten thousand appears behind enemy lines, unleashing a storm of mastercrafted bolter fire thanks to the salvus ka'tah
A venerable land raider also joins the fight, zeroing into the enemy knight and bringing it down with devastating lascannon fire
Adding up to the slaughter the cervaria crusader melts an unfortunate chaos dreadnought
It is then time for the custodians to charge and do what they know best
And killing for good the resurrected vextrix engine

It is then that the chaos reserves appear belatedly on the battlefield
And when one custodes terminator is killed by the argiber's overwhelming firepower
The golden guard is not put off by such loss, and in the third turn the custodians launch a series of charges that see the chaos slaves all but wiped out

Decimated by the bikes
The terminators are finally slaughtered by Achilles-Diomedes
With most of his army destroyed the chaos player concedes the game, winning the custodes 64 to 10
