Hive Tyrant: Adrenal Glands, Monstrous Rending Claws, Toxin Sacs, Two Devourers with Brainleech Worms, Wings
Dawn of war deployment (long sides of the table) I put pretty much everything but neurothrope, biovores, hive guard and termagants in DS reserve. Termagants as screen, biovores in cover and hive guard hidden behind a building. Hounds, crushers and cannons were pretty spread out across the . Khorne put all bloodletters, skarbrand and bloodmaster in DS reserve, it cost him 9 CPs I think. Khorne got turn +1 on the roll and won the rollof. I probably would have given him first turn anyways.
Turn 1 Khorne: He ds 4 bloodletter squads killed most of my termsgants and piled into the hive guard. Scored quite alot of points from the start, got alot of board control.
Turn 1 Kronos: I DS all my units, GS came up in my deployment from nodes, i cleaned up my deployment zone and took out a cannon.
Turn 2 Khorne: He DS 2 more BL units and skarbrand, failed a few charges, killed a tyrant, killed som rippers and scored some more points
Turn 2 Kronos: I started gaining board control with flyrants, GS and spore mines (he couldn't deal with them, no shooting) and cleaned up more BL and killed another cannon and a unit of Bloodcrushers, just spamming those 14 CPs on everything i could. Still low on points. I got Skarbrand this round so i got Slay the warlord.
Turn 3 Khorne: He DS his last 20 BL, but couldn't really hurt my flyrants and couldnt reach my biovores and hive guard. This is where it started noticably to go south with Khorne.
Turn 3 Kronos: Ended the turn with just a few Khorne units on the board. Started to pick up on points now. Pretty close points wise.
Turn 4 Khorne: All he had left was some crushers and hounds, ran of to a corner to try and last a round or two more.
Turn 4 Kronos: I tabled him and we called it. It would have resulted in 7-10 in my favor.
Victory Tyranids. By tabling (7-10)

I made fun of him for that. Not really the way of Khorne.
I think he would have done better if he "went all out". He was through my screen turn 1. If he had more in my face turn one i wouldnt have been able to clear them all away. He also had some crushers sitting on an objective he didn't even have a card for, for 2 rounds.
