*In the list section (as well as the rest of the game), Dalton has an extra unit of Lychguard - These shouldn't have been in the list, and puts them 140pts over. Fortunately they didn't have much of an effect on the game, and had they not been present the Destroyers and Overlord nearby would have achieved the same effect (screening and objective-holding). Nonetheless, our apologies for the error, and Dalton wants to say he's very very sorry (that some of the fleshy meatbags survived)!
