The Great Bray-Shaman drew Caress of Laniph, Spirit Leech,
Fate of Bjuna, and the Purple Sun of Xereus.
The Slaanesh sorceror received Acquiescence and Cacophonic Choir
and the Nurgle Demon Prince Stream of Corruption and Fleshly Abundance.

forward. The Demon Prince gifted the Slaanesh sorceror with Fleshly
Abundance and sighed in pleasure as Nurgle blessed his bloated body
with yet another disgusting disease, but then frowned as the spell vanished
from his mind.

At least the Lore Attribute kicked in and nothing worse happened).
The spells of the Slaanesh sorceror were all thwarted by the Bray-Shaman.

not quite so eager).

The Jabberslythe charged the Chaos Hounds who promptly fled, losing
two of their number to the precipitous rocks, but the monster was able to
redirect into one of the Chaos Chariots. Two groups of Ungor Raiders
couldn't resist charging the Chaos Sorceror but were both out of range.
The Great Bray-Shaman tried to cast Spirit Leech on the Chimera but
The Great Bray-Shaman tried to cast Spirit Leech on the Chimera but
was foiled by the Chaos Sorceror. In retaliation the Shaman inflicted the
Caress of Laniph onto the Sorceror but a servant of Slaanesh is above all
earthly pleasures and the spell was shrugged off, leaving the Shaman with
not enough power to summon the Purple Sun of Xereus.
The Jabberslythe's aura of madness and its more mundane attacks severely
damaged the chariot but its crew fought on and managed to wound the beast.
Both sides prepared for another round of combat.
With the exception of the Chaos Hounds (who continued to run) and
the Chimera (who took up a position behind the suddenly nervous

the Chimera (who took up a position behind the suddenly nervous
Bestigor) the entire Chaos army charged, all reaching their targets.
Wild shots from the Ungor glanced off tough hide and armour plating

but otherwise had no effect on the onrushing Chaos worshippers.
The duel between the two sorcerors continued as the Bray-Shaman
The duel between the two sorcerors continued as the Bray-Shaman
was forced to use a dispel scroll to prevent the Cacophonic Choir
disrupting his army.

roasting 9 beastmen in horrible fashion.

revenge in death as its acid blood badly damaged its killer.

and the Demon Prince slaughtered the Ungor in moments and pressed on
towards the Bestigor.

Wild horns brayed as the Beastmen began their counter-attack.

Turn 2 - Beastmen
The remaining Chariot crashed into the Sorceror and the Bestigor
surged forward to attack the two monstrous forms in front of them
while the Ungor Raiders attacked from the side. The Dragon Ogre
Shoggoth fled rather than face the heavy axes of the Beastmen on his
own but the Demon Prince held, with the evil grin on his face making
the Bestigor wonder if the attack was a good idea....
The winds of magic only allowed the Bray Shaman to attempt the Caress
The winds of magic only allowed the Bray Shaman to attempt the Caress
of Laniph once again and this time the Sorceror had to resort to a dispel
scroll to negate the spell.

The Demon Prince hacked apart five Bestigor and crushed four more
under his monstrous limbs and the weapons of the Beastmen could not
touch him (my opponent needed sixes to hit). The Bestigor only remained
in combat due to their superior numbers but the Ungor immediately fled
from the seemingly invincible Demon.
The Chaos Sorceror absorbed the impact of the chariot and the attacks
The Chaos Sorceror absorbed the impact of the chariot and the attacks
of its crew on his heavy armour and chopped down 3 Ungor. The survivors
also fled beyond the Chimera.

to give the deathblow to the faltering Beastmen, charging into the fleeing
Ungor and the embattled Bestigor.
The attacks of the Demon Prince and the impact of the chariot completely
The attacks of the Demon Prince and the impact of the chariot completely
wiped out the Bestigor but the Wargor and the Bray-Shaman managed to
destroy the onrushing chariot. Even so, the beastman had lost the combat
and the Demon Prince gleefully bit the head off the Beastman Battle
Standard Bearer before bounding after the fleeing Shaman.
The other chariot mowed down the fleeing Ungor while the Sorceror
The other chariot mowed down the fleeing Ungor while the Sorceror
and the last Beastman chariot remained locked in combat, neither able
to wound the other.
Turn 3 - Beastmen
The Great Shaman pulled himself together and shouted to his
Ungor underlings who also stopped their flight.
Determined to sell his life dearly, he drew deeply on the powerfully
blowing winds of magic and cast Spirit Leech and Laniph's Caress
on the Demon Prince in quick succession, but the infernal monster
shrugged off the dark magic and only laughed mockingly at him.

Summoning the inner reserves of his soul, he called forth an unstoppable
Purple Sun of Xereus which rolled menacingly over the battlefield.
The Demon Prince avoided the sun with contemptuous ease, but the
chariot and the Dragon Ogre Shoggoth were not so agile and were
instantly turned to crystal!

Turn 4 - Warriors of Chaos
The Demon Prince charged the Shaman who turned and fled
but was cut down by the leering demon.
The Chimera flew directly at the Tuskgor chariot and ripped
it apart with its beak and claws, causing the nearby Ungor to
flee in panic off the table.
The last Chaos chariot (on one wound) crashed into the Ungor
Raiders, killing all but one with its impact and the crews' attacks.
Closing his eyes and expecting nothing but a horrible death, the
last Ungor stuck his sword out and tried to make himself as small
as possible. He heard a crunch and some screams, and opening
his eyes saw to his delight that his blade had severed the yoke,
causing the chariot to fall apart and killing all its crew!

The last remaining Ungor charged the Demon Prince but his luck ran
out as the diabolic form almost negligently removed his head from his
shoulders.

The Warriors of Chaos were the masters of the field!
Not much to say about this one. The Nurgle Demon Prince is an
absolute beast and could probably have won the battle all on his own.
I was a little unlucky in losing the chariots and really unlucky to lose the
Shoggoth (I had been saving 6 dispel dice for the Purple Sun and my
opponent went and rolled a miscast AND I couldn't pass an Initiative
Test on a 1-4). Otherwise, everyone performed as expected and the
Beastmen were sent packing back to their forests but with their honour
intact, having destroyed all the chariots as well as killing the Shoggoth.
