Aeldari Turn 3:

Heretic Astartes Turn 4:
I reposition the last squad of Cultists, they kill a Witch but fail the charge. On the other side of the battlefield I kill Eldrad and a Grotesque.

Aeldari Turn 4:
Another squad of Havocs goes down and a Helbrute is wounded. Witches assault and kill all the Cultists.

Heretic Astartes Turn 5:

Aeldari Turn 5:
They kill the last squad of Havocs.

Heretic Astartes Turn 6:
Abaddon kills the warlord. Helbrutes and Warpsmith kill one Grotesque and wound another.

Aeldari Turn 6:
Prisms kill Abaddon. Grotesque and the last character kill the Warpsmith.

Heretic Astartes Turn 7:
One Chaos Lord denies an objective. The rest of my guys kill the last Grotesque.

Aeldari Turn 7:
The Chaos Lord dies along a Helbrute.

Game ends with a score of  Aeldari 20 - 0 Heretic Astartes.
I knew I cannot win this game because I was out ranged by the Fire Prisms, deployment type didn't help either. Still we laughed all game and we had a good time.
