Hello Folks,
Time for another 3rd ed 40k battle Report! This time we have Tyranids vs Imperial Guard, and the mission is meat grinder.
Tyranids are attacking so their troops units get to come back, however they must completely kill the guardsmen to win.
Here's the set up, 65 guardsnen deoyed to defend the emperors territory. Many claws and sharp jawbones ready to eat em.
Tornados advance, not much shooting but get a few guys.
Guards shoot back wounding the hive tyrant, and killing all but 1 ravener and von Ryan's leapers.
Fast tyranids able to get i to combat, but the ws4 drugged up Jordan somethings are annoyingly sticky.
Guard shoot em up, bringing the tyrant to 1 wound, but a plasma gunner blows himself up.
Second wave incoming. A heroic senior officer held out against hormagaunts, only to have a carnifex tap on his shoulder.
Guard in the rocks fight off the last ravener.
Game ends after turn I think 6, only half a dozen guardsmwn cowering in a rock wating for thr carnifex to kill them
But they are there so Guard win!
Very fun game, but came out quite close. I thought it would be more 1 sides. Shows what I know!
Next games day at Fandom, is Jan 10th.
Thanks;
Mike
