Saim-Hann and Blood Angels Vs. Dark Angels & Necrons

Teaming up once again with the Blood Angels the Saim-Hann warhost moved against Fallen Dark Angels and their Necron conspiritors. Our side deployed behind cover with our opponents also matching except for a tactical squad taking the top of a tower and Dark Angels scouts infiltrating to the far end of the board. We took first turn and passed it to the other side as they pretty much continued to hold behind cover with the scouts firing off some ineffective heavy bolter shots.
Taking out turn the plan was to advance the Blood Angels assault squads as far and as fast as possible while my vypers provide supporting fire. My jetbikes would be held back to claim objectives if needed, and my farseer would use the usual guide/mindwar, with the falcon plugging any holes. Target priority was all the Nercons to get them to phase out so we could turn both our armies agasint the Dark Angels.
Our opponent's second turn saw a lot of shooting taking down some of the advancing Blood Angels and one of my Vypers as a large squad of Necron warriors used veil if darkness with their lord scattering a bit back from their intended mark leaving them out in the open.
Continuing the advance the Blood Angels prepared to assault the Necron group led by the lord as my vypers moved across to shoot them. Took down a few with star cannon fire as my farseer used mindwar to drop the Necron lord. My falcon fired on a group of three heavy destroyers taking down two. During our assault phase the first groups of the Blood Angels crashed into the ranks of the Necrons and Dark Angels along with a five man death company hitting a second large Necron squad. Losses were heavy on the Necron and 'Angels side from the assault as the Dark Angels not locked in assault fired on my Vypers stunning two as the assault concluded with the Nercons phasing out.
Taking our next turn the combined forces of the Blood Angels and Saim-Hann swung around as lit up the few remaining Dark Angels downing half a dozen with star cannon and bolt pistol shots. Moving my farseer into position to mindwar Ezekiel the Dark Angel librarian called out a challenge to let him die honorably in the assault. Understanding the ways of honor my farseer allowed the Blood Angels to surge forward, engage, and cut down Ezekiel for a complete victory on turn 5.

Turn 5.... nice.
I like the closeup shots that highlight certain scenes. They just tell more of the story for me than the overall shots.
