Tyranids VS Space Wolves 42

By
Published:
254 Views

Description

The Hive Tyrant shoots two of the three remaining Space Wolves hidding behind the Tyranid structure with his stranglethorn cannon.
The last one gets shoot by an Exocrine.

The remaining Exocrine has no more targets to speak of and thus fires at the nearest Drop Pod, damaging it (1 HP left).

The game ends after Tyranid turn 7.

There are no more Space Wolves left on the table.
Just a destroyed Rhino, a damaged Rhino (1 HP left), a destroyed Dop Pod, a damaged Drop Pod (1 HP left) and one Drop Pod that actually remained intact.


*************************************

Victory points are calculated as follows (tournament mission rules).
Both player start with 15 each.
The difference in points is added to the player having more and subtracted from the score of the other one.

The Tyranids get the primary objective (holding more quarters of the table / 3 to 0) + 6 victory points.
They als claim the relic (secondary objective) + 5 victory points.
As for the tertiary objective, they killed the enemy warlord, which usually gives + 1 victory point.
However, thanks to the Tyranid Warlord trait table the Tyranid Warlod gains + 2 additional victory points for every enemy special character he kills in a challenge. And he did kill the Wolf Lord in a challenge. So, that´s another + 3 victory points for the Tyranids altogether.

The final result is 29 to 1 in favor of the Tyranids.
(15 / +6 / +5 / +3)        (15 / -6 / -5 / -3)


************************************

Mike did all he could to put up a good fight.
In the end the Tyranids simply got lucky.
If it weren´t for the three failed 3++ saves for his Wolf Lord the whole game would have turned out different.
But at this point the outcome was decided.
It was just a question of how much of a superiority the Tyranids would manage to gain.

I hope you enjoyed this battlereport.

Good stuff. I thought Jaws would give you more trouble but you took care of that problem quick.

Miss the Mycetic spores yet?
