The game went to points at the end of the 4th. Marines had 1187.5 and bugs 1005. I don't remember anything being broken so all that was from destroyed or reduce to below half formations.

Not yet no. I have two more I'm trying to get to but a Windows machine isn't cooperating right now.

This game was against me, so I'll add my two cents about the Corsair list. -This was a strange game for dice on both sides. We could seem to be hitting averages, instead taking turns rolling hot or cold. Lead to some interesting shooting and engagement results. IE: Trygons getting into CC with Havocs and bouncing off them or Chaos Marines winning a clipping engagement until the actual dice roll. - The drop didn't feel as hard as other drop lists, both loyalist and chaos, can deliver. With two drop pods and the OB to avoid, I didn't feel as trapped as when playing Black Legion or Ravenguard. - I liked the lesser demons in the list. They did a good job soaking hits to keep the Marines alive. - Dave is a cagey Cad. - The Warband made for a hell of a BTS to chip away at. Doublely so since it never crossed the mid table. So hunting it down and trying to pick all the off the table became and exercise in futility. - I enjoyed the feel of the army, but it didn't quite feel that it could deliver a full punch. It felt like it required a lot of chipping away at the enemy. That also could be coming from playing against Nids and trying to avoid direct combat and the nature of the NetEA list. That may also be the nature of the Corsairs also. If the chance comes up, I'd like to try playing against them again with a different army to try and clarify this thought. - Great work and best of luck down the stretch!
