That is actually carnifex dung.

The whole reason we even had this match was due to that very fact.
A carnifex went potty on that gameboard and left a little green present.
And the Blood Angels being the neat-freaks that they are, went mad after realizing a carnifex just took a dump on their sacred grounds and sent their cleaning crew.
Unfortunately they did not realize that Tyranids are like animals and as we all know animals mark their territories in such ways. So that a whole crew of genestealers were in charge of guarding the carnifex dung as this was now a historic tyranid landmark upon the lands.
And well you know how the rest of the story went.


Carnifex dung. I'm going to make a campaign based upon this premise. Great report and I've sure learned a lot about how to pair genestealers with a lictor. Excellent job!

Tired of reading new rulebooks... Just wanting to play.

Yes that is the GW NY store.

and luckily we have no absurd 'painted only' or 'primed only' rules for playing. That would really suck, it's like forcing people to do things your way and your way only. Games should be decided by the players for the most part. If the opponent is cool with it, let them play. It's more fun that way.

Akaiyou, do you go to the GW near NYU? My friend is planning on going to college down there and he said there was a GW that was within walking distance of his campus. Is this the one you play at?

Im not a big fan of stealers and i have never seen a list like this in action, but seeing this has changed my mind of stealers and they look cool in a slab of killyness.

Great battle report!!

Great report - I have to admit, I feel the lure of the hive mind every time I see a stealer shock list.

Great reports Akaiyou! Hopefully when the new space hulk comes out their will be enough Stealers in the box so that I can field one of these uber-Stealer forces. May even need to get two boxes. However, I sure don't need any more terminators

All painted and pushing 60,000 points combined.
