THE SCREAMING FOREST

The Imperial Guardsmen of the 203rd Catachan Regiment, under the command of Colonel Skree, were ordered to protect Satys’ jungles. Although initially successful, the increasing numbers of Tyranid invaders quickly began to overwhelm the regiment, which was forced to fall back to the command bunker controlled by Captain Norensis and the Space Marines of the Aurora Chapter. Though there was sanctuary to be found within the small compound, Norensis realised that the inevitable swarm, when it manifested, would surround them. So it was that they began to carve a path towards the cities, where they could join the larger force defending the manufactorums.

THE ARMIES

Choose armies as described in the Fighting a Battle section of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. One player must choose a primary detachment from Codex: Tyranids, and should include either a Lictor Forest Brood and/or Deathleaper’s Assassin Brood. The other player must choose a primary detachment from Codex: Space Marines, and can take an allied detachment from Codex: Imperial Guard.

THE BATTLEFIELD

Use the deployment map included with this mission. Then, set up terrain as described on page 120 of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook.

The players then roll-off. The winner of the roll-off can decide which of the short table edges will be the Space Marine table edge. All other table edges are the Tyranid table edges.

DEPLOYMENT

Players should first roll for Warlord Traits (pg 111 of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook).

The Space Marine player deploys first, anywhere in the half of the table that is opposite to the Space Marine table edge, and which is more than 12" from any of the Tyranid table edges (see deployment map). No Space Marine units can be placed in Reserve.

The Tyranid player deploys second. Tyranid models can be deployed anywhere that is within 3" of a Tyranid table edge.
