Points: Harlequins (750) vs Tyranids (750+100)
Mission: Tunnels
Planet: Okassis
Without their Starweavers, the Harlequins were slow off the mark and allowed the Tyranids to steal the initiative, and then failed their first assault. However, they used the tunnels to their advantage, keeping out of range and line of sight and the Tyranids were not able to bring their weapons to bear upon their foe. With a mixture of Shuriken Cannon Fire from their jetbikes and their Kiss slicing through tough hide, the Harlequins secured the middle ground. But the swarm kept coming and eventually the Warlord brought his unit to the Harlequin position.
The Farseers had set the Harlequins on this path and had chosen the strand of fate that most favoured the outnumbered Harlequins. The Warlord inexplicably missed his mark and seemed powerless to resist the Herlequin blades, sharpened by fate.
The Tyranid Warlord fell and with him his monstrous unit and the Harlequins set about destroying the Hive.
Final Score: Harlequin 7 (Slay the Warlord, First Blood, Primary Objectives x5) Tyranids 0
For the Harvest!

Yes a good battle enjoyed it all except the in-depth descriptions of what your bugs were doing to my Harlies... "This one is firing maggots all over them that turn corrosive, this one fires beetles that burrow into the skin..." I hate bugs!
