So, just finished up a VERY long battle against my long time friend. He just got some more tyranid models, so we decided to do a very long 8,000 vs 8,000 point battle. It took nearly 12 hours I think to finish. We did the game at friend's place so we could set up some camera's to record the whole thing.

WARNING: There is over 11 HOURS of footage since we filmed almost everything. The computer did blue screen out toward the end, but we got the end and did a quick recap in part 4. I would highly suggest watching when either painting or assembling, since there is a lot to get through, and we aren't talking all the time.

You have been warned!

Anyway, links below:

I'll try to post my army list tomorrow (when I can think again). If possible I may be able to get the Tyranid list written down.

Oh, and I took the advice from the poll I posted on here about a week ago

The board we were on was 12 feet by 4 feet.

Below are a couple pics I nabbed real quick since the webcam doesn't show my side of the board very well:
