Points: 3000.
Deployment: Spearhead.
Primary Objective: Random Objectives Deck.
The first classes took place as the sun arose over the horizon, and giant Tyranid beasts stormed the central position of the Imperial lines, while smaller organisms crawled or flew over the northern and southern positions. The Rift Wardens were the first Imperial forces to engage the enemy. The space marines initially put up a solid resistance along the front, but lacked coordination between different Imperial factions. Imperial tanks and artillery fire inflicted casualties among the smaller hordes. The Tyranids in general suffered heavy fire as they attempted to breach the walls. Artillery beasts took a toll upon the defenders and within a couple hours, the Tyranids had broken through the central defences. The Rift Wardens split up their forces and relocated squads to help isolate and destroy numerous gaunts and genestealers. However, as the day crept forward, the battle was effectively over, having turned fully in the favour of the Tyranids. By midday, the Tyranids had reached the Imperial command bunkers, unhindered by the various minefields and automated turrets.
