MISSION 2: STORM OF BLOOD

With their Captain trapped beneath the crushing weight of an ecclesiarchal statue, and their minds reeling from a deadly psychic assault, Terminator Squad Alphaeus could only watch in disgust as vile alien shapes approached through the ruins of the outer courtyard. Genestealers, drools of phlegm hanging from their fangs, crept across broken masonry towards the prone form of their Captain, while further away one of the trio of Tyranid Warriors levelled the barrel of a huge alien cannon at them. The shot from the Tyranid’s gun exploded within their ranks, showering their armour in corrosive ichor but failing to kill any of the doughty Space Marines.

Although the situation for the Terminators looked bleak, help was at hand as the roaring of jet engines signalled the arrival of the Death Company, who plummeted to the battlefield, their jump packs leaving fiery trails through the murky sky. With bolt pistols blazing they landed within striking distance of the Phodian Hive Warriors. They were joined moments later by the hulking silhouette of Cassor, a massive Death Company Dreadnought that barrelled through nearby buildings, smashing walls apart in its haste to join the action. Together these new arrivals poured fire into the Tyranid Warriors, blasting chunks of chitin from the aliens in a welter of blood, but not felling any.

MISSION 2

Forces: Squad Alphaeus, Squad Raphen and Cassor the Damned versus the Phodian Hive Warriors, the Beast of Phodia and the Children of Cryptus.

In this mission the Blood Angels player must hold the centre of the battlefield (where Karlaen lies injured) against Genestealers, Tyranid Warriors and even a lumbering Carnifex. Against such odds victory seems impossible, except that help is at hand – Brother Raphen leads the Death Company and the indomitable form of Cassor the Damned to the rescue.

The game is won by the side which controls the centre of the battlefield. Although in our game it was closely contested, in the end the Blood Angels held the objective by the narrowest of margins.
