*NEW CODEX* Tyranids vs Custodes: Warhammer 40k Battle Report!!!

*NEW CODEX* Tyranids vs Custodes: Warhammer 40k Battle Report!!!

Stephen will be commanding the new codex Tyranids and Chris will be running Custodes.

Our VT battle reports bring a blend of entertainment and education. So if you are looking for an interactive Warhammer 40k coaching game, this will be perfect for you.

For this Warhammer 40k 9th edition battle report we will be using 2000 point strike force armies along with the Games Workshop Warzone Nachmund: Grand Tournament mission pack.

The mission for this battle report will be death and zeal.

In this Warhammer 40,000 battle report, we talk through the new codex Tyranids and Custodes army lists and the secondary objectives that work well for them.

We show you the armies, the mission, the deployment, turn by turn analysis, and the end of the turn and game coaching round-up.
