About playing, building and painting Tyranids in Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 - a science-fiction miniature wargame. Tyranids are like the bugs in "Starship Troopers" with various big monsters and a lot of little buggers ...

Chaosdaemons repelled
Deployment: pitched battle
Gave the Daemons the first round and deployed all units except the warriors with BS+LW. I wanted them as counter in case some Daemons would come near my objective.
Daemons had bad luck when their gods decided to hold the first wave back and send the second one in.
Daemons came in into assault range, got shot by Hive Guards, Zoantrophes and Warriors and finished off by the rest of the swarm.
Tyranids lost the Trygon, the Gargoyles, the Genestealers (shot by Hirrors), the Ravenors.
Trygon spawned 11 Gants in round 1 with doubles ...
Daemons conceded after top of round 5 with only one unit of Horrors left and the swarm closing in.
