I went over to a friends and we ended up playing 3 games. Because time wasn't an issue, we played 3000 points, by far the biggest games I've ever played. Whenever we play, it's always a complete bloodbath where we're lucky to still have a couple of units left at the end and today was no exception.
My list

The Sanguinor
Librarian
Furioso Dread
Drop pod Sternguard with 9 Combimeltas and a Heavy Flamer
4 x Scout squads with snipers, missiles and camo cloaks
Death Company - 11 marines with 2 power weapons, power fist and thunder hammer + Land Raider Crusader
Death Company Dread
Landspeeder (twin multimelta
2 Baal Predators
3 x Stormravens
My friend was playing chaos, he took Abaddon, Kharn, Terminators, noise marines, plague marines, Berserkers, a defiler, 3 Obliterators, A vindicator, 2 Landraiders (dedicated transports).
Game 1 was 5 objectives, pitched battle. He started well, killing a Stormraven, my landspeeder and a couple of scouts on the first turn. Then the Death Egg (sorry, but this is my name for a Sternpod) landed and flashfried his Obliterators and a landraider. They all died to his Khorne Lord (he swapped him out for Kharn in games 2 and 3) but they did their job. It ended with me killing his objective holding noise marines with the Sanguinor and then getting him into the Berserkers who were holding the central objective, meaning that I won 2 to 1
Game 2 was 2 Objectives, spearhead. Again, the Death Egg performed wonders, killing a Landraider and immobilising the Defiler. They all died to Abaddon this time, but since he was walking, I wasn't too unhappy. This game ended with me chasng his 5 remaining Plague Marines into their building while sitting outside it with 2 Stormravens and the Landraider with the Death Company getting ever nearer. Luckily for my opponent, he rolled a 3 to see if we got turn 7.
Game 3 was Dawn of War, kill points.
I shall give you 3 guesses as to what the Sternguard killed and what happened to them.
Well, a Landraider certainly died, along with the Vindicator. Then Kharn emerged from the smoking wreck of his favourite ride and killed them all with a bit of help from his bodyguard (although he killed one of them) Abaddon killed the Sanguinor after every thing in the Chaos army had shot at him (Game one gave my opponent a new found terror in the BA codex) and reduced him to a wound before shooting 4 Lascannons, 5 Meltas and a pair of Melta bombs at the Landraider, failing to even glance at each and every turn. I was amazed by this, but not about to question it. Abaddon then died under a massive spam of Death Company. Rain stopped play on this one, but it was only a matter of time before annihilation of the heretics.
All in all, the Sternguard, Landraider and the gunships were my standout units. They killed a lot of stuff dead. My Landspeeder... dear me, how much fire and how much priority did my friend place on killing it ? So very much for an 80 point unit. I think I'll take 3 next time.
