Deployment: Hammer and Anvil
Night Fight




The Eliminators faced three small but deadly Tyranid broods of Warriors.
The Space Marines draw the Tyranids into their firing range and started reducing their number.  
The Tyranids had to weather the fire to hold the middle objectives.

Utilizing the mobility of the Scion paratroopers the Eliminators captured a vital end objective, the defending Tyranids were not able to charge the distance required so these brave scions held on for an additional turn.

Space marines continued their gun line attack on the Tyranids on the centre objectives, managing to contest on their left flank with the assistance of fire power from their snipers. More Scion paratroops arrived but scattered too much to be able to capture an objective this turn. The Tyranids doggedly held onto the centre ground and their rear defenders were able to descended on the scions, clearing them from the objective (scoring first blood).

The combined fire power of the Tactical Marines and Snipers were able to wipe out the Tyranids from one objective and continues to weaken the remaining centre Tyranids. The backfield Tyranids moved in for the kill on the remaining Scion paratroopers.

In the final turn the Tactical Marines held both centre objectives having kill the Tyranid Warriors there. The remaining Scions were killed just after they had reach the other backfield objective.
