Live tweets of the game

http://twitgoo.com/2bpgmr gk eldar and tau deployed

http://twitgoo.com/2bph14 ig and nids deployed

http://twitgoo.com/2bphde what the f psyrifle dread

http://twitgoo.com/2bphm9 first turn for gk, eldar and tau sees only one destroyed chimera

http://twitgoo.com/2bphtj ig and nids move up towards the center objective

http://twitgoo.com/2bpjk5 shooting sees the banshees and phoenix lord, a tau devilfish, and a falcon grav tank in ruins

http://twitgoo.com/2bpk4o gk, eldar and tau shooting does little besides a few immobilized results and crew shaken

http://twitgoo.com/2bpmau stealers pile in on the banshees, the executioner puts 2 wounds on the dreadknight and some minor vehicle damage

http://twitgoo.com/2bpmvd Tyrannofex is there

http://twitgoo.com/2bpmwk now he isnt

http://twitgoo.com/2bpn3n the center is a bit clearer after several deaths on the nids and the hammerheads take out a valkyre

http://twitgoo.com/2bpn9y the gaunts are tenuously holding their objective

http://twitgoo.com/2bpni0 the rangers are trying their best to hold out against 2 manticores and an executioner

http://twitgoo.com/2bpnuw The fire warriors may not be able to hold their rear objective for much longer

http://twitgoo.com/2bpo37 the dreadknight says hello in their rear objective

http://twitgoo.com/2bppvn the vendetta deep strikes to finish off the dk while the paladins move in on the objective in the nid home base

http://twitgoo.com/2bpq3s the ig takes down the dreadknight

http://twitgoo.com/2bpqma the seer council tries to contest their rear objective from genestealers and ig

http://twitgoo.com/2bpqn6 paladins own the tyranids rear objective and stare down the ig guns

http://twitgoo.com/2bpr7m a single dire avenger owns the central objective against the firepower of the igs entire army

The Dire avenger didn't manage to hold out and we lost the only objective we had, which was the center, and the IG contested the objective my paladins held on the last turn. They owned our rear objective and we owned none, so we lost :(

Camera is bad, but very easy to upload pictures, I don't know if twitter provides enough detail though to tell what is really going on. Had a good time doing it, though.

Being constructive:
1. Blurry pix or too far from the action
2. Why not just have them here on Dakka?

Agree, next time I do a batrep I'll use my camera and write on here instead of twitter.
