Welcome to another amazing Long War battle report, today Juice’s Tyranids are going to attempt to wipe out Riley’s Space Marines in a custom Narrative game!
Juice has a whole horde of Tyranids bearing down on Riley’s custom Imperial Fists successor chapter. In our scenario today Riley’s marines need to hold out long enough activate a beacon before the tide of Tyranids sweeps them away. To setup this awesome custom battle, Juice is bringing 4x the number of points that Riley gets!
He’s got Mawlocs, Dimachaerons, Flying Hive Tyrants, you name it! The Hive Mind is throwing everything it’s got at Riley’s intrepid band of Imperial defenders!
To counter the overwhelming points difference, Riley is using some experimental custom rules we at The Long War have been toying with for a while now! First up is our custom Dreadnought rules, for this game Riley’s Venerable Dreadnought is going to be a monstrous creature with T7 and a 2+ save!
Backing up this venerable badass is the custom imperial defense Network, made up of a group of Imperial Bastions, each Bastion is equipped with a 2-shot, S8 AP3 Skyfire/Interceptor turret! And just for kicks, if two or more Bastions shoot at the same target, they get twin-linked!
Will the valiant Space Marines stand up to the ravening Tyranid horde long enough to get their beacon active? Find out in this exciting Long War Battle Report!
