This is what i was up against:

 

Deamon Prince

Defiler

2x 9 Thousand sons marines with sorcerer in Rhino

9 Terminators

9 Chaos Spawns

 

We played Capture and Control and Dawn of Was setup.

 

Dawn of war hurt my Long Fangs but i elected to give him first turn because of objectives.

 

He deployed both his troops and his Deamon Prince, 1 on his Base and DP and the other on the other side of the table across for my base.

 

I deployed my 5 man squad and Razorback on my base and a Rhino with 10 grey hunters and 1 Rune Priest on the middle of my table quarter.

This was my first big mistake, I should have kept all my squads off the table.

 

First turn he moves his troop and DP towards my base and shoots me to pieces with his AP3 bolters and his DP immobilizes my Razorback. He moves on his Defiler and shoots a shot at my rhino and misses and holds his termies and Spawn in reserve.

 

Now I move on my other units and shoots at his troops at my base with grey hunters that has just moved on and the rune priest with JotWW. DP makes the initiative test but 4 out of 5 marines fail theirs !! good lineup of the power maxed out my damage there :blink:

 

I left my Long fangs out in the open and 1 unit gets pie plated and looses all but 2 las cannons, he moves forward with other squad.

 

I decimate his troops and he has 2 left, grey hunters shoots at DP and rune priest shoots and charges DP, and survives and manage to hold him up. I move 1 Rhino up towards his base , Rune priest and LF shoots and does no damage to targets.

 

He gets in terminator squad in front of his base to hold off my rhino and spawns in front of my base.

He shoots down my other Long Fang squad but Rune Priest survives. DP kills my Rune Priest.

 

I take out the DP and rest of his troops and spawn by turn 5 and he manages to fire off so many combi plasma shots from Terminators and AP3 bolters after wrecking my rhino, so match end in a draw.

 

I made a couple of big mistakes in the game so i am pretty pleased with how the game went considering Dawn of War deployment.

For what i understand you had too much forces deployed at the begining! AFAIK Troop squad and its transport counts as 2 troops.
