Turn 1
No teleports.
Strategy Roll: Black Legion
The Banelord growls as it looses two Havoc Missiles at the distant Attack Swarm 1. The Sustained fire destroys two Dactylis, severely inhibiting the Tyranid artillery.
Assault Swarm 2 marches forward, taking cover in the thick jungle.
The Raptors then double forward into the scrub on the large hill, near the strange crystals.
The Nexus Swarm senses the approaching prey and also marches forward, climbing the hill and scurrying about the unusual rock formations.
The insane pilots of the Swiftdeaths dive out of the alien sun to strafe the Nexus Swarm, tagging two Termagants.
Assault Swarm 1 marches forward to claim the bridge the Carnifex have been perching on.
The Land Raider then advance on the Nexus Swarm, accurate fire cutting down 1 Malefactor, 1 Haruspex, 1 Gargoyle and 1 Ravener.
Trying to accomplish its biological imperative, Attack Swarm1 sustains fire, only a single Dactylis is able to fire, targeting Retinue 2 and placing 2 Blast markers.
The Warlord leads Retinue 1 on a double and they mount up to fire on the Nexus Swarm taking out 1 Ravener and 1 Termgant.
Attack Swarm 2 then double forward off the bridge and into the swamp, firing on Retinue 1 for a single Blast marker.
Retinue 2 drops overwatch and advances to fire on the Nexus swarm: 2 Raveners and an unlucky Tyranid Warrior go down… over a third of the Black Legion army has spent a turn firing at the Nexus, and it only has 5 Blast markers!
End of Turn:
All formations rally.
Nexus Swarm spawns 1 Gargoyle and loses 1 Gargoyle out of Synapse range.
Assault Swarm 1 spawns 1 Ravener, 1 Gargoyle, and 1 Termagant.
Assault Swarm 2 spawns 2 Raveners.
Attack Swarm 1 gets its 2 Dactylis back. (YAY!)
