TURN
TWO- Dark Eldar: Word
had reached the front of the Eldar deception, and the
fast-moving Ravager and Scourges were the first to return
to the tower. The Dark Eldar unleashed a maelstrom of
destruction the likes of which the Eldar had not seen in
centuries. It would be a day long remembered in the
history of both proud races.

TURN TWO- Eldar: With a rousing cry of "We're gonna need some new FBI guys," the Eldar reinforcements arrive in the form of the Wraithlord and the Jetbikes. The Eldar had been forced to hold them in reserve as their engines were too loud to approach without detection, but the kid gloves were off now and the Farseer was ready for action. First, the Distortion Cannon fired an incredibly accurate blast onto the skiff behind the hill. Where once sailed a proud skiff full of Dark Eldar Warriors, there now stood only a warped crater and a stream of smoke. Only three passengers survived to make it to the safety of the trees... but the Jetbikes were on their way.
The Avatar himself assaulted the Scourges, focusing his fury on the Sybarite with his Poison Blades. The Sybarite was slain, but not before his blades had done their work, wounding the Avatar severely. (The Avatar dimly recalled days when poison could not hurt him...)
The Dire Avengers had watched three of their brothers fall to the other Raider squad, and their Dark Reaper backup was gone. The scatter laser also failed to perform, so the Dire Avengers stepped in to fill the role of heavy support. Leveling their shuriken catapults at the engines of the skiff, they sent it crashing to the ground. The Farseer and his Masque of Harlequin Warlocks moved in to clean up the passengers as they came screaming from the burning wreck. Their fates were already sealed, and they would see no mercy from the Farseer.
