Deployment: Pitch Battle
Terrain: Hills

Two days have passed, after Hestan and his salamanders cleared the island for tyranid infestation, it was Sicarius and his Clenched fist moved in and was ordered to secure it. Weeks have passed, but yet no signs of the Conqueror fleet.

Without warning, Huge, lumbering Carnifexes and Hive Tyrants Sprung out under the dead land. hormogaunts leaped out of lurking and rushed towards the nearest prey. The Clenched Fist stood ground, firing lascannon and plasma rounds to the behemoths; landspeeder Tornadoes moved to the flanks trying to take out the genestealers. Sicarius together with his Terminator squad killed every hormogaunt in their way.

The Conqueror was known to be fast and deadly, as Sicarius' sight was covered by 3 huge monsters, that completely annihilates his Terminators squad. Left alone, Sicarius fought for his life. A dreadnought tried to aid, but it was the dreadnought that fell in the scythes of the Hive tyrant. The inevitable happens, as Sicarius was heavily wounded by the swipe of one of the Carnifex. Sicarius fell to his knees, slowly, darkness consumed him. The hive tyrant was about to devour Sicarius' wounded flesh, but a squad of marines diverted its attention, and enraged with anger, took down the tyrant. One of the Rhino Squad successfully salvaged the wounded body of Sicarius away from the behemoths and escaped out of the island.

The fleet was unstoppable, destroying and consuming everything in its path. Albeit outnumbered, it still seemed to be a stalemate for they recovered the almost dead body of Sicarius.

Result: Draw!!!
