The nids almost had it 2-0 in the third but the HQ rallied and denied them TSNP. It went to points in the 4th with IG winning 2010 to 963. We played this on the new Realm of Battleboard that the Whiz got. Pretty nice once you cover all the skull piles. Matt's Commissar Baneblade had a problem with the rocky outcroppings though...

Start of Game Bye-bye Harridan. A Swarm doubles up. The Tbolts take out a Biovore. A Swarm doubles up. The other group of TBolts chickens out. A Swarm doubles up. The Vultures advance and take out two Stealers. The Biovores lay a BM on the Rough Riders. The Marauders take out two Gaunts. A Swarm marches up the left flank. The Rough Riders marshal. The Genestealers double. The Baneblades double and break them. A Swarm marches up. The HQ marches to the woods. The BTS marches up. The Mech Coy doubles. The Exocrines double and lay a BM on the HQ. The infantry remain on overwatch. A Swarm doubles up. The Trygons surface. The Lictors appear. |

Turn 2 The HQ engages the BTS. Four for four. The BTS looses by one and falls back. The last Deathstrike takes out a Trygon DC. A Swarm advances on the Vultures. Another engages them. They all go down. Tbolts breaks the Lictors. The Rough Riders screen the HQ. The Biovores break them and back they go. The Marauders come in and take out absolutely nothing. The Exocrine double and take out a Hydra and a Chimera. The Trygons attempt to retain and fail, they move. The Tbolts take out a gaunt and hack down a Malfactor. A Swarm doubles up the right flank. The Bandebaldes engage the Exocrine (one fails its dangerous terrain test going over the rocks, and crits! ![]() One Exocrine runs away. A Swarm doubles up and lays a BM on the HQ. The Mech Coy doubles on the Swarm on the right and takes out a Gaunt. A Swarm doubles up and lays a BM on the Mech Coy. The infantry double and a Sniper takes out a Warrior. A Swarm prepares to eat some guardsmen. |

Turn 3 The Baneblades engage the Swarm in cover, the IG win but another Baneblade crits! The Warriors make it out alive. The HQ doubles and gives the Exocrine. A swarm advances and lays a BM on the Mech Coy. The other swarm enages them. Ack, six to three IG. The rest are hacked down. The infantry mange to take out another Warrior, the swarm goes to 3+. The Biovores attempt to sustain, fail and lay a BM on the HQ. The Marauders lay a BM on the BTS. The 3+ Swarm attempts to double and moves. The Tbolts lay a BM on the Genestealers. The BTS absorbs the 3+ Swarm. The other Tbolts break the stealers. The Trygons engage the HQ which pulls the BTS in. Seven to five, nids. The HQ still pulls it off, and the BTS flees synapse-less. The Mech coy marshals and takes out some brood. The Lictors double. The Deathstrikes fail to activate and regroup. A swarm doubles and breaks the HQ. A Swarm doubles back to grab the Blitz. |

The HQ marshals so we go to turn 4. The bugs try a last ditch assault on the Mech Coy. Four to one (it didn't go so well). The Swarm is hacked down. The Exocrine doubles and lays a BM on the HQ. The Baneblade advances and breaks the Lictors. The Biovores fail to sustain again and lay a BM on the HQ. The Marauders fail to come in. The Trygons engage the Baneblade. They loose one with 2DC, take another DC in damage and then loose the assault. The TBolts straffe the BTS. The HQ marshals. A Swarm doubles on the infantry. The other retains and engages. Four to three IG (none of my support hit). The Warriors flee. The Tbolts get BTS. A swarm goes on overwatch. The infantry engages the Swarm after the Mech Coy doubles and takes out a warrior and some brood. It dies to a bug. End of Game |

Ouch! Carnage. Any further conclusions on the gaunty horde type of list? |

With just plain synapse swarms going to points is always going to be rough, loose one warrior and you're already at half-strength or less. I'm still not convinced lists like this are auto-winners, 2-3 more tests and we'll see. |

I think the harridan horde is the one that needs testing, as that seems to be the direction most people are swinging with v10. |

Seems they are consistent in going to four turns and VPs. And whether they win or lose via VPs could be pre-determined by the method of VP calculation possibly? A lot of failed nid assaults in this game - was it all down to bad dice? |

The Trygon assault on the BTS and Baneblade, as well as the synapse swarm assault on the Mech Coy definitely were. Didn't make too many 5+ saves. |
