THIS IS NOT A TOURNAMENT. YOU WILL GET MORE

OUT OF THE WEEKEND IF YOU ENJOY THE

EXPERIENCE RATHER THAN FOCUS ON THE OUTCOME

OF YOUR GAMES. TRY AND PLAY WITH YOUR

OPPONENT RATHER THAN AGAINST THEM.

The Tyrannic War campaign presents hobbyistswith an opportunity to play in a different style than

they may be used to. Tempus Fugitives narrative

campaigns are about trying out new ideas and

contributing to an adventure. In fact the story is

almost as important as the actual games themselves

and players should be prepared to get into the mindset

of the army they have brought to battle with. If you

and your opponent have a great game, the actual

outcome of the battle becomes far less important.Once more (with feeling), you are playing with your

opponent not against them.

The team running the event is there to help describe

the campaign story as it unfolds and they will work out

what impact your games have upon it. Most

importantly they are there to ensure everybody has a

great time. Rememberits only toy soldiers!

Games will be driven by the narrative of the campaign.

This means that during the course of the event variousgames may appear quite challenging when viewed

from the usual gaming perspective. In any war

commanders have to deal with what might appear

unfair or unbalanced situations, using cunning and skill

to prevail against overwhelming odds, and the same

may be true for you. However, whatever the scenario

or battlefield conditions, your game and your story will

always count in the big scheme of things; the Tempus

Fugitives will always try to make sure that you are not

asked to play a game you simply can't win before any

dice are cast. There will always be critically important

mission objectives that you will need to strive to

achieve. Your force may meet annihilation in the face

of an enemy with vastly superior numbers or power,

but trying to hold the line in the face of such odds is

what legends are all about.

As this is a team event, even if you lose your individual

battle your Taskforce or faction may still do well

overall; don't worry about 'winning', just think about

having a good time. It is our hope that we can repay

some small part of the kindness that the gamingcommunity has shown us over the years and organise

a top notch event that everyone can enjoy. Have fun, and dont be afraid to ask any questions!

Tyrannic War pits Taskforces in a campaign setduring the Second Tyrannic War. Each Taskforce is

themed to a particular faction and each faction is

pitted against Taskforces belonging to one of a number

of factions available over the weekend. The factions

involved are detailed at the end of this pack. Each

Taskforce will have their own agendas, strengths and

weaknesses. Before the first game on Saturday you will

be asked to gather at one of the Taskforce muster

points and nominate a Taskforce Commander and a

deputy. It is important that these two individuals are

people of fortitude and are prepared for all of the

challenges the roles present.

THE TASKFORCE COMMANDER (AND DEPUTY)

The role of the Taskforce Commander is of crucial

importance to the team and it is the Commander's

responsibility at the start of each round to not only

make sure that each of their players has an opponent

but also to choose which is to undertake a special

mission. Additionally, throughout the campaign there

will be additional information and decisions that will

need to be taken on behalf of the Taskforce. Although

a good Commander will listen to their Taskforce and

discuss their decisions fully, it is ultimately the

Taskforce Commander who decides on what STRATEGY

to take. Their deputy may have to take over from a

commander should something unfortunate happen.

campaign pointsYour campaign points determine the outcome of the

campaign. Players earn Campaign Points depending on

how they perform in each round. Players earn 3

Campaign Points for a Win, 1 for a Draw and nothing if

you Lose. As your games finish you must report theresult (Win, Lose or Draw) to the stage along with your

opponent. You cannot give your results in without your

opponent present.paintingAll models MUST be painted and representative of the

appropriate type of troop. You cannot use a model

that does not meet these criteria. If you are planning a

conversion that you think may need clarification please

contact us before the event. You cannot represent

units with models that are smaller than the Games

Workshop equivalent. Because we believe that due

credit should go to players that have painted their own

armies, only players who have painted their armies

themselves may be eligible for the coveted award of

Best Army. We ask all participants to be honest if

shortlisted. A number of armies will be shortlisted on

the Saturday and then will be voted on by the players

during the Sunday lunch break. The winner will be

announced at the end of the weekend.

Painting is a key part of the hobby. If you do not paint

your models for the weekend to at least a basic

standard (undercoated, three colours and based), thenmodels which are painted to at least a basic standard

will be filled with an indignant hatred for your lack of

effort or poor time management. Painted units that

are engaged in combat with unpainted models or

those not painted to at least a basic standard count

as having the Hatred special rule.

strategyAt the beginning of each round, the Taskforce must

study the signs and portents to decide on a Strategy to

use for the round. Each Strategy can only be used once

over the weekend and is represented by the relevant

Strategy recorded by the Taskforce Commander. Asyou must decide your Strategy before you play your

games each round you have to rely on your judgement

as to its outcome. Choose carefully as picking Death or

Glory makes your draws worthless, while Giving No

Quarter squanders any bonus from winning.

Y Death or Glory: This strategy awards 4 CampaignPoints for a Win but nothing if you draw or lose.

Y Feint: At the end of the round, count this strategyas either Death or Glory or Give No Quarter.

Y Give No Quarter: This strategy awards 3Campaign Points for each Win or Draw but

nothing if you lose.

Y Accurate Intel: This strategy allows the Taskforceto Seize the Initiative on a 3+

Y Rapid Response: This strategy allows a single Eliteor Fast Attack choice to Outflank or Deep Strike.

Y Enfilading Fire: This strategy enables players tolower their opponents cover save by -1 at the

start of a turn.

By early 990.M41, Hive Fleet Kraken had already sunk

its tendrils into the galaxy, isolating many Imperial

worlds before any astropathic warnings could be sent.

Hive Fleet Behemoth had previously been fought as a

wave that had advanced across the galaxy as a single

organism, but Kraken was actually a series of smaller,

separate Tyranid Hive Fleets that moved to attack

many human-settled planets simultaneously. This not

only increased the difficulty for the Imperium's

defenders in opposing the Hive Fleet, but also

increased the area of the Hive Mind's psychic Shadowin the Warp tenfold. Almost overnight, an entire

Imperial sector was silenced from Terra, isolated from

Astropaths' messages of warning by the potent power

of the Hive Mind. Only several months after Hive Fleet

Kraken's onslaught had already begun did the first few

survivors' accounts of the attacks begin to reach the

wider Imperium due to the terrible turbulence in the

Warp. Whole planets had been wiped out by the

Tyranids in only a few hours and the Imperium of Man

once more faced an unimaginable threat.

The Ichar IV Rebellion

But before the true threat revealed itself, the

Imperium had first faced uprisings on its Eastern Fringe

that served as the prelude to the main Tyranid threat.

One such rebellion occurred on a Hive World named

Ichar IV. Ichar IV was vital to the operation of the

Eastern Fringe as its huge manufactorums formed the

centre and lynch pin of one of the few densely

populated Imperial sectors in the widespread Ultima

Segmentum. The entire planet had been seized from

the control of the Imperium by a religious

fundamentalist group named the Brotherhood. Years

before, the Brotherhood had captured the hearts and

minds of the population of the planet by preaching the

return of the Emperor in physical form and promising

better times to come. This is the sort of promise that

was sought by the workers of the Icharran

manufactorums because they lived lives with no

power, hope of betterment or freedom. The

Brotherhood quickly set up missions and chapels

throughout the poor regions of the planet. The

Ecclesiarchy closely monitored the Brotherhood for

any signs of corruption or heresy, but none could be

found. Eventually, permission was sought and granted

for the construction of a Brotherhood cathedral in

Lomas, the biggest city on Ichar IV. Shortly after the

completion of the Brotherhood's cathedral the trouble

began; the Brotherhood refused to pay its tithes to the

Planetary Governor and would not allow its members

to be inducted into Ichar IV's Planetary Defence Force.

Brotherhood Preachers whipped the Icharran

population into a frenzy, prophesying that the

Emperor would return in the flesh soon. Brotherhood

militias began to roam the streets, punishing anyone

they deemed to be "unbelievers" rather than actual

criminals.

Events accelerated when rioting broke out during a

mass demonstration outside of the great cathedral in

Lomas. Arbitrators of the Adeptus Arbites moved in

with Power Mauls and Suppression Shields to put

down the rioters forcefully, but were fired upon from

the cathedral by Brotherhood militia. The Arbitrators

returned fire and killed several of the Brotherhood's

militia members. This only enraged the mob further

and they surged forwards several times, eventually

forcing the Arbitrators to fall back, especially as

another, larger mob had just arrived to support them.

Rioting then spread across the planet and most of the

forces of the Arbites were forced back. When the

Planetary Defence Force was called in to restore order,

most members of the force rebelled and joined the

ranks of the Brotherhood. Eventually, news of the

assassination of the Planetary Governor reached the

public and vicious fighting broke out in all of the hivecities of the planet. Within hours, tanks decorated with

the revolutionary banners of the Brotherhood were

seen driving down roads in cities, pushing the Arbites

back. With the dawn, news of the assassination of the

Imperial governor and most of his ministers had

spread over the entire planet, and the Brotherhood

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

8/37

quickly seized control of several broadcasting stations,

announcing the establishment of their new theocratic

state in the name of the returning God-Emperor.

The Arbites still held control of the majority of the

Icharran countryside and the Arbites fortress thatguarded the centre of Lomas. Most of the cities had

been captured by the Brotherhood, denying the

Arbites vital resources. Inquisitor Agmar of the Ordo

Xenos arrived twenty-seven days after the rebellion

began, on the same day that the Arbites fortress in

Lomas was overrun by Brotherhood forces. Most of

the Judges in the fortress escaped, moving to take

control of the four main power stations of the city.

Inquisitor Agmar saw this as much more of an

organised rebellion than a sporadic outburst of

popular religious feeling. He called for the support of

the Ultramarines Chapter of Astartes to help the forces

of the Imperium retake the planet. While the

remaining Imperial forces waited for the arrival of the

Ultramarines, they bombarded the rebel cities and

pushed back vicious assaults by Brotherhood militia

battalions. Repeated attempts to reach the power

stations of Lomas failed and, six days after Agmar

arrived, the Arbites detonated several Melta Bombs,

completely destroying the generators.

Now the war transformed into a long, grinding

campaign of urban combat with casualties spiraling

upwards daily. Every doorway could possess a booby

trap and there were Brotherhood snipers in place all

over the renegade-held cities. Entire Imperial Guard

patrols that remained loyal to the Imperium

disappeared without trace in the chaotic maelstrom.

The rebellion promised to be a long one as the

Brotherhood held the armouries of the Imperial Guard

Regiments assigned to the planet and had the support

of the majority of the Icharran population to draw on

to become soldiers in its militia. Inquisitor Agmar led

several small forces of Imperial Guardsmen and

Arbitrators into Lomas to uncover the true nature of

the Brotherhood. He was slowly piecing together the

story when, in a chance raid, he slew a Neophyte ofthe Brotherhood and saw what manner of xenos

creature was actually leading the revolt - Genestealers!

Agmar sent an astropathic message confirming his

fears of another Tyranid invasion to the Inquisition and

awaited the arrival of the Ultramarines.

The Genestealer Infestation

Thirty-nine days after the Icharran rebellion began, the

Ultramarines' Battle Barge Octavius entered orbit

above Ichar IV and deployed its Drop Pods. The

planetary defences were largely inactive due to the

damage to the power generators of Lomas and as suchthe Space Marines' landing casualties were light. The

Space Marines secured the Imperial Guard's armouries

and the Imperial Governor's palace and fought off

several poorly organised counterattacks, causing

massive casualties among the Brotherhood's forces.

Outside, the remaining Imperial Guard forces launched

coordinated attacks to link up with the Ultramarines,

using their Leman Russ main battle tanks as moving

strongpoints and slowly, inevitably, the Brotherhood's

lines bent back.

More than 20 Veteran Space Marines in TerminatorArmour from the Ultramarines' elite 1st Company

teleported into the great Brotherhood cathedral in

Lomas and destroyed the cathedral's defenders after

Agmar sent a message to the Octavius via spy satellite.

More guards appeared from side doors and a storm of

lasbeams and autoshells ripped out, massacring many

of the Brotherhood guards, but not before several of

the Terminators were dragged down. The Terminators'

single Heavy Flamer proved to be invaluable, its flames

incinerating the unprotected assaulting forces. Yet

some of the Brotherhood Neophytes were striking out

with inhuman speed and terrible claws, indicating their

xenos heritage.

The Terminators then spread out and searched for the

myriad of secret passages that they presumed existed

beneath the Brotherhood cathedral. They soon found

one under the altar, and the altar was quickly

removed. As they moved down into the crypt, they

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

9/37

heard the clattering of claws on stone. As the

creatures jumped into the lights of the Ultramarines,

they were identified as Genestealers. This showed the

Inquisitor's belief that there was a Genestealer coven

at the heart of the Brotherhood's revolution to be

correct. The battle began and raged for a long time.Hundreds of Genestealers died, piling up one on top of

each other. Eventually, the horde's numbers were

spent in their attack. Several Ultramarine Terminators

had been killed as their armour was torn open by the

inhumanly sharp claws of the Genestealers. The

remainder of the Astartes moved further into the crypt

without encountering more of the creatures. Deep

beneath the city of Lomas they found a huge cavern

where the huge and bloated great grandfather of the

brood, the powerful Genestealer Patriarch, sat. As the

Terminators approached, another horde of

Genestealers intent on protecting the alien master

attacked the Terminators from out of nowhere. Storm

Bolters rang out, resulting in pure carnage. The

company Librarian fought his way to the dais but the

Patriarch used its psychic powers to attack the Space

Marine psyker. A surge from the Astartes' psychic

hood broke the spell and the Librarian forced his body

out of the real world for an instant and then he

reappeared, teleported onto the dais. The creature

lashed out and blood and sparks flew from the

Librarian, but the Patriarch easily parried the return

blow.

The Librarian called on his Battle-Brothers for

assistance and the dais was swept with Bolter fire.

Some shells pierced the Power Armour of the Librarian

but the Patriarch was also wounded. The Librarian

used this opportunity to strike with his Force Axe, the

Librarian's own psychic power behind the blow

allowing the weapon to tear through the tough hide of

the Patriarch. The Patriarch was dead, suddenly

leaving the brood and the entire revolution leaderless.

The revolution felt the death of its leader and lost its

impetus and cohesion. The remaining Terminators

slew the rest of the Genestealers and the battles

above slowly stopped as the revolutionaries could onlyretrench themselves and no longer act in a fully

coordinated manner without the Patriarch's subtle

psychic guidance over the cult. Small groups of

Brotherhood Acolytes and Neophytes held their

positions in bunkers and towers but were soon

destroyed by the tanks and heavy fighting vehicles of

the Imperial Guard.

Ichar IV was back under the control of the Imperium

and all remnants of the Genestealer Cult - the

Genestealers, their hybrids, infected humans, cultmembers and traitors - was ruthlessly wiped out.

Inquisitor Agmar, leading the Ultramarines,

methodically purged the planet, which eventually

returned to normal. There were still questions that

remained unanswered. One was the fate of the human

leader of the Brotherhood, as his body was never

found. The second was that the planet's Astropaths

had reported a shift in the Warp, distant still, but the

oldest of the Astropaths had sensed the psychic call of

the Genestealer Patriarch radiating out into space and

felt the change in the Warp. He had sensed something

vast and shadowy, a monstrous entity which hadturned its attention towards Ichar IV - Hive Fleet

Kraken.

The Kraken Comes

The horror stories that attended Hive Fleet Kraken's

coming to Imperial space were numerous. Among the

many tragedies of this time were the following:

In the Miral System, Imperial Guard Regiments and the

Space Marines of the Scythes of the Emperor Chapter

held out against the Tyranids of Hive Fleet Kraken who

had overrun the lush jungles and plantations of MiralPrime. The Imperial forces retreated to a huge mesa

called the Giant's Coffin where they defended against

the vicious hordes of xenos that infested the dense

jungles below. The flora of Miral itself had become

mutated since the first Mycetic Spores of Hive Fleet

Kraken had fallen on the world and eventually only

constant defoliation with Flamers prevented the

Tyranid spore-infected creepers from engulfing the

Giant's Coffin.

A Rogue Trader brought rumours of the feral world of

Larnarno to the Imperium's heart, a planet that had

come to be ruled by the Celebrants of Nihilism, a

heretical doomsday cult whose adherents had taken

care to match their prophecies with the dire events of

the times. When elements of Hive Fleet Kraken arrived

at Larnarno, nearly 75% of the planet's population had

calmly marched towards the Tyranid bio-ships to be

consumed by their new "gods." The Rogue Trader also

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

10/37

brought a tale from the giant asteroid-monastery of

Salem, which told how the monks had chosen to

poison both themselves and their carefully

terraformed ecosystem rather than allow all to be

consumed by the Great Devourer.

Another dedicated Imperial merchant captain helped

evacuate millions of Imperial citizens from the mining

worlds of the Devlan System before it was consumed.

Devlan's extensive system of Novastorm space stations

held the Hive Fleet at bay long enough for a fleet of

giant ore freighters to escape into the Warp. A

company of Space Marines of the Lamenters Chapter

held off the attacks of the Tyranid Warriors until the

last starship had been loaded, though the SpaceMarines in the end sacrificed their own lives so that

many more might live.

Even those who fled successfully found little respite

from the horror. One of the giant ore freighters fleeing

Devlan arrived at the world of Adr's Hope ominously

dark and silent. Those investigating the ship's

automated landing discovered that within lay a blood-

drenched abattoir where thousands of refugees--men,

women and children--had been mercilessly butchered

by a Tyranid organism that had breached the starship's

quarantine even as it fled. Only three weeks later Adr's

Hope itself was a blood-soaked ruin of a world - the

Great Devourer had claimed even more victims.

Seen on a galactic scale, Hive Fleet Kraken was

attacking across a front that covered thousands of light

years. Some worlds were bypassed, isolated by the

Hive Fleet's Shadow in the Warp or attacked

unexpectedly, making a cohesive Imperial defence

almost impossible to mount. The Imperium was forced

to concentrate its forces on the most strategically

important Forge Worlds and Hive Worlds, while it

evacuated or simply abandoned to their horrific fate

many others. Still, there were some bright moments

for the Imperium. Several Space Marine Chapters

dedicated their forces to saving worlds the wider

armies of the Imperial Guard had abandoned. Some,

such as the Lamenters and the Scythes of the Emperor,

found their once proud Chapters reduced to a few

scattered remains as the price of their valour, while

the Knights of Eternity Chapter is presumed to have

been completely obliterated. Others carried the battle

to the Tyranids as only the Space Marines can, striking

at isolated tendrils of the Kraken, boarding Hive Ships

and blowing them apart from the inside. Yet, no

matter the efforts of the Imperium, the Tyranids weretoo numerous and drove ever deeper into the galaxy,

towards the Imperium of Man heart.

The Battle of Ichar IV

Fortunately for humanity, Hive Fleet Kraken did not

remain divided into separate tendrils indefinitely and

eventually began to coalesce into a single, massive

swarm on Ichar IV, the Hive World whose large

Genestealer infestation had been the initial harbinger

of the Kraken's arrival in the Milky Way Galaxy. As the

Tyranids approached the planet, thousands ofGenestealers suddenly burst from the underhives in

support of the invading xenos, giving the lie to claims

that the infestation had been entirely purged years

earlier. Defence perimeters were completely overrun,

Imperial Guardsmen slain by the thousands. In the

terrible confusion, an ever larger number of Tyranid

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

11/37

organisms made planetfall -- not only the Termagants

and Gargoyles that had composed the vanguard of the

prior assaults, but the truly monstrous Carnifexes and

Tyrannofexes as well. Worse still, gigantic Hierodule

and Hierophant Bio-Titans stalked across the surface of

the beleagured world. The Tyranids had unleashed on

Ichar IV every terrible organic weapon in their arsenal.

Despite all this, Ichar IV was not yet lost to humanity.

Forewarned of Tyranid interest in the world by the

previous Genestealer infestation, the Imperium was

able to mount a more solid counter-defence in the

Ichar System than in the other areas of the Eastern

Fringes under assault by Hive Fleet Kraken.

The Ultramarines inflicted crushing losses on the

Tyranid armada in space above the planet and in the

claustrophobic corridors of the towering Icharran hive

cities. Space Marine Veterans of the First Tyrannic War

made planetfall and scoured Ichar IV's hives in a series

of close-quarter battles that lasted for close to a full

Terran year. By employing the same tactics that had

proved successful in defeating Hive Fleet Behemoth in

Ultramar two centuries earlier, Marneus Calgar rallied

the Imperial defenders of Ichar IV and cast the

Tyranids from that planet forevermore. But as always,

victory against the Tyranids had come at a terrible

price - Ichar IV was reduced to a smoking charnel

house of death and destruction, a world and its people

sacrificed so that the Imperium of Man might endure

yet another storm.

The Battle for the Iyanden Craftworld

The first warning the Eldar of Craftworld Iyanden had

of the danger posed by the Tyranids of Hive Fleet

Kraken was brought in 992.M41 - a Tyranid Hive Fleet

of immense proportions was heading towards Iyanden

Craftworld. Already over a dozen Imperial planets hadbeen consumed by the Tyranids' advance and,

although the human Imperium was mounting furious

counter-attacks where possible, it would be months

until a major Imperial taskforce could be fully

mobilised to deal with the threat. By the time the

Imperial frontier was stabilised, the Eldar of Iyanden

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

12/37

knew that their precious Craftworld would have been

overrun.

Farseer Kelmon, political leader and spiritual head of

the Craftworld, called together the Eldar of Iyanden

and warned them of the impending Tyranid assault.

The debate by the people of Iyanden on the action to

take against Hive Fleet Kraken's approach was heated

and prolonged. The more conservative elements of the

Craftworld argued for a policy of isolation, shielding

the Craftworld behind a powerful psychic shield in an

attempt to avoid all contact with the Tyranids. The

more aggressive elements wanted to attack the

Tyranids immediately, dispatching the fleet to destroy

the Tyranids before they reached the Craftworld. Both

courses of action were problematic, however, because

they took no account of the sheer size of the Tyranid

Hive Fleet. It took a powerful speech from the Ranger

Irilith, who had seen the Hive Fleet at first hand and

understood the terrible threat that it represented, to

sway the assembled Eldar. For over an hour she drove

home to all present that it would take the combined

efforts of every Eldar on Iyanden to have any chance of

turning back the Tyranids. Even then they might not

succeed in defeating the alien menace. A hush fell on

the Hall as Irilith finished her speech. No more needed

to be said, for all the Eldar present now realised the

sheer enormity of the task ahead. Farseer Kelmon rose

and ordered that the Eldar prepare the defences of

lyanden Craftworld. All elements of the fleet would be

recalled, and every single Eldar must take on the

Warrior Aspect of Warlock, Guardian or Aspect

Warrior, for the first time in E ldar history since the Fall.

The entire Craftworld would be fortified, for there

could be no doubt that the Tyranids would breach

their outer defences and land on the immense

worldship. Help must be requested from the other

Eldar Craftworlds. The Avatar, the embodied spirit of

the Craftworlds War God Khaela Mensha Khaine, mustbe awakened to take part in the battle. And, most

terrible of all, all of the Craftworlds ancient Spirit

Stones must be plucked from their resting places and

implanted in cybernetic exoskeletons to battle as

Ghost Warriors. As many Imperial scholars know, when

an Eldar dies their spirit is released into a gem known

as a Spirit Stone, which is grafted into the very

structure of their Craftworld to preserve the dead

Eldars consciousness and prevent it from migratinginto the Warp where it will be devoured by the Chaos

God Slaanesh. Thus, each Craftworld is actually a living,

intelligent being which preserves a little of the once

great Eldar civilisation. By risking the destruction of the

Craftworlds Spirit Stones, Kelmon risked the

destruction of lyandens culture, racial memory and

literally the souls of its people. It was a grave chance to

take, but Kelmon knew that the Ghost Warriors could

make the difference between victory and defeat in the

struggle that was coming.

The first Tyranid Hive Swarms attacked Iyanden just

twenty days later. By then the Craftworld had already

been isolated for over a week by the Hive Mind's

Shadow in the Warp which made it extremely difficult

for the other Eldar Craftworlds to send help through

the Webway or psychically communicate with their

brethren. Apart from a few scattered units that made

it through, Iyanden ultimately fought the Tyranids on

its own. Nonetheless, the first Tyranid waves were

dealt with easily and efficiently by the Eldar fleet. The

Eldars spacecraft were faster, more manoeuvrable

and had longer-ranged weapons than their opponents.

In battle after battle, the Eldar spacecraft destroyed

the lumbering, biomechanical Tyranid Hive Ships while

only suffering minimal casualties themselves. For a

while it looked as if the Eldar fleet might be able to

hold off the Tyranids on its own, as wave after wave of

Tyranids were wiped out. But Farseer Kelmon was not

convinced. Already the ability of the Craftworlds

Wraithbone forges to replace destroyed Eldar

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

13/37

spacecraft was being far outstripped by the casualties

being suffered in the deep space battles that raged

around the Craftworld. The Eldar fleet was being

ground down in a massive battle of attrition; a battle

that only the Tyranids, with their vastly superior

numbers, could hope to win. As if to confirm Kelmonsworst fears, the next Tyranid wave attack was massive,

very nearly twice the size of any that had hit the

Craftworld so far. The Eldar fleet suffered terrible

casualties in its attempt to hold the Tyranids off, and

for the first time was unable to stop them from landing

on the Craftworld itself. Although the landing was

wiped out before any serious damage was done to

Iyanden's defences, the Eldar fleet as a large-scale

fighting force had ceased to exist. Still there was hope,

especially if the wave had represented the Tyranid

Hive Fleet's main assault force. The Eldar's morale was

raised even more as the next Tyranid wave turned out

to be tiny in comparison to what had come earlier.

Although the weakened Eldar fleet couldnt keep all of

the swarms away from the Craftworld, the landings

that were made were easily isolated and destroyed.

For a short while it seemed that the Eldar had

weathered the terrible storm of Hive Fleet Kraken.

Then Iyanden was hit by two huge Tyranid attacks in

rapid succession. The pitiful remnants of the Eldar fleet

opposed the Hive Swarms as best they could, but were

ultimately swept aside by a tide of living alien

spacecraft. Iyanden was all but engulfed as horde after

horde of Tyranid Warriors, Genestealers, Gaunts and

Carnifexes were disgorged onto the Craftworld's

surface and interior. Huge battles erupted all over

Iyanden, the fighting bitter and close-ranged with

enemy forces often only separated by the width of a

corridor of Wraithbone wall, as the Eldar desperately

attempted to beat off the alien invaders. Often they

succeeded, but the Fortress of Tears, the Shrine of

Asuryan and, most terrible of all, the ancient Forests of

Silence, repositories of the flora and fauna of the lost

Eldar homeworlds on Iyanden, all fell to the Tyranid

hordes. The Eldar furiously counter-attacked, the

raging figure of the Avatar of Khaine leading theCraftworlds Aspect Warriors, Guardians and

Wraithguard and Wraithlord Ghost Warriors in a

berserk orgy of destruction which recaptured the

Forests of Silence from the Tyranids. It is said that the

Eldar Warriors wept tears of rage and sorrow to see

the damage inflicted on the ancient forest domes of

their Craftworld. Slowly the Eldar managed to turn the

tide on the Tyranids and gain the upper hand, forcing

them back onto the defensive. And then another huge

Tyranid wave arrived, the third in succession, and the

largest yet. As swarm after swarm flickered into

existence on the Eldars scanners, Kelmon knew that,

barring a miracle, Iyanden Craftworld was doomed.

Over 50 standard years before the Tyranid assault,

High Admiral Yriel, an Autarch, had led the Iyanden

Fleet. Although he was considered one of the greatest

Eldar naval tacticians to have ever lived, his character

was flawed by the sin of pride. When Iyanden had

been threatened by a Chaos space fleet raiding out of

the Eye of Terror, Yriel had led the Eldar fleet on a pre-

emptive attack on the Chaos fleets flagship, leaving

the Iyanden Craftworld unprotected. He only returnedjust in time to stop a suicide attack by a small flotilla o f

Chaos raider ships, who nonetheless managed to

damage the Craftworld. Expecting to be feted and

honoured for his victory, Yriel was deeply angered

when he was called upon to defend his course of

action. Claiming that his record should speak for itself,

Yriel refused to enter into the debate, leaving his old

friend Farseer Kelmon no choice but to elect a new

High Admiral in his place. Bitter with rage, Yriel had

vowed that he would never set foot on Iyanden again.

He and a small band of followers left the Craftworld to

pursue the Path of the Outcast and formed an Eldar

Corsair company known as the Eldritch Raiders that

became the single most powerful Eldar pirate force

operating in the galaxy. Yet, when he heard of Hive

Fleet Kraken's assault on Iyanden, Prince Yriel did his

best to ignore the terrible peril that threatened his old

Craftworld. But proud though he was, righteously

angry though he remained, Yriel could not leave

lyanden's people to their fate in this, their darkest

hour. Battling his way through the Tyranids psychic

blockade, Yriel swept to the aid of his people and

arrived just in time. Like a thunderbolt from the blue

Yriel and his large Eldar raider fleet smashed into the

swarm of Tyranid vessels. He was quickly joined by the

few remaining craft of lyandens fleet, and together

the combined Eldar space fleets tore the swarms of

Hive Fleet Kraken apart. Two more waves of Tyranid

Hive Swarms from the Kraken attacked the Craftworld,

only to meet the same fate. Not a single Tyranid bio-

ship reached the Craftworld, though the cost to Yriel's

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

14/37

Eldritch Raiders was dear. Bloodied but unbowed, the

Raiders prepared to sell their lives to the last in order

to turn back the next wave of Tyranids. On the bridges

of the Craftworld and of the circling Eldar starships,

vigilant eyes watched the scanners, waiting for the first

tell-tale blip that would indicate the direction of the

next assault. Minutes passed, then hours, and with a

growing sense of wonder the Eldar realised that no

more Tyranid Swarms were coming the assault was

over. Hive Fleet Kraken had been dispersed; its

coherence had been destroyed!

But on Iyanden Craftworld the war raged on

The Tyranid hordes that had been fighting a tenacious

rearguard action awaiting the aid of the rest of the

Hive Fleet now turned like cornered rats and hurled

themselves at the Eldar. Caught by surprise, the Eldar

staggered back, desperately trying to hold in the face

of the suicidal Tyranid onslaught. The Fortress of the

Red Moon fell to a surprise attack, and for a moment it

seemed that with victory within their grasp the Eldar

would yet be defeated. But, for the second time, Yriel

led his Eldritch Raiders to the rescue of the Craftworld.

Disembarking from their orbiting spacecraft, the

Raiders joined with the battered defenders of Iyanden

Craftworld and, yard by yard, step by step, forced the

Tyranids back. A final wild charge led by the Tyranid

Hive Tyrant was annihilated by the combined efforts of

the Avatar of Khaine, Prince Yriel and the Ghost

Warriors, and then in a series of vicious one-sided

battles the last of the Tyranids were hunted down and

destroyed. The Tyranid attack on Iyanden Craftworldwas over. The Tyranids had been defeated.

But the victory was a hollow one. Though the Eldar had

repulsed the invaders, the cost was enormous. Their

once proud Craftworld stood in ruins, and four-fifths of

the inhabitants were dead or lay dying in its shattered

halls. Amongst their number lay Farseer Kelmon,

surrounded by the bodies of a dozen Tyranid

Zoanthropes whose wretched heads bore the marks of

psychic fire. Iyandens mighty space fleet wa s a pitiful

shadow of its former self; the blasted remains of its

majestic spacecraft and their brave crews hanging

silent and weightless in space. But all this could be

rebuilt, maybe not for hundreds of generations, but

one day in the distant future. What was lost forever

were the souls of the Eldar whose Spirit Stones had

been destroyed in the battle against the Tyranids. The

massive destruction wrought upon the people and the

Ghost Warriors of Iyanden dealt that Craftworld -- and

the entire Eldar species -- a blow from which its culture

could never fully recover.

The Imperium barely had time to breathe following the

end of the Second Tyrannic War before it learned that

both Hive Fleets Behemoth and Kraken had been little

more than reconnaissance forces for the true threat to

the very existence of humanity -- the arrival of Hive

Fleet Leviathan in 997.M41.

7/27/2019 2TW Pack

The Tyranids are an extragalactic alien race, whose sole purpose is the

consumption of all forms of genetic and biological material in order to evolve and

reproduce. Tyranid technology is based entirely on biological engineering. Every

function is carried out by living, engineered creatures, each of which collectively

forms the Hive Fleet, directed by a single Hive Mind.

By early 990.M41, Hive Fleet Kraken had sunk its tendrils into the galaxy, isolating

many Imperial worlds before any astropathic warnings could be sent. Hive Fleet

Behemoth had fought in a single wave that had advanced across the galaxy as a

single organism, but the Kraken was actually a series of smaller, separate Tyranid

Hive Fleets that moved to attack many human-settled planets simultaneously. This

not only increased the difficulty for the Imperium's defenders in opposing the Hive

Fleet, but also increased the area of the Hive Mind's psychic Shadow in the Warptenfold. Almost overnight, an entire Imperial sector was silenced from Terra,

isolated from Astropaths' messages of warning by the potent power of the Hive

Mind. Only several months after Hive Fleet Kraken's onslaught had already begun

did the first few survivors' accounts of the attacks begin to reach the wider

Imperium due to the terrible turbulence in the Warp. Whole planets had been

wiped out by the Tyranids in only a few hours and the Imperium of Man once more

faced an unimaginable threat.

When choosing an army to fight for the Tyranids the most recent edition of the army Codex will be used. If you have any further questions regarding army selection, please contact the

event organisers before the weekend and check the forums at www.tempusfugitives.co.uk. The published Codex used in this campaign for the Tyranids is: Codex Tyranids. All

supplementary rules to your Codex can be found in this pack.

There is a different army structure and several units which are a feature of the armies of the Tyranids during the Tyrannic War campaign. They are detailed on the

following pages and are considered fully usable for this narrative campaign weekend. However, they are not to be considered official in any way outside of the

Tyrannic War narrative campaign weekend.

COVEN REMNANT During the Second Tyrannic War, many Tyranid armies represent a force that was once a Genestealer Coven that has since been reabsorbed into the Hive Fleet.Players wishing to do so may include Genestealer Coven as an Allied Detachment in a Tyranid army.

A NOTE ON FLYERS The Hive Mind has fashioned a unique solution to deal with enemy forces who have a reliance on high-speed aircraft. Gargoyles, like all Tyranid creatures, are merely tools toachieve an end. Often, Imperial pilots are faced with the Hive Mind compelling Gargoyle Broods to fly directly into the aircrafts engines and cockpit. Although this strike instantly kill s many of the Gargoyles,

it causes horrendous damage to the craft.Bird-Strike: At the start of any turn when an enemy flyer has been deployed, the Tyranid player may choose to fly a single Gargoyle brood in play of at least ten models into the deployed unit. This causes

3d6 unsavable wounds on the Gargoyle Brood and causes d3 glancing hits on the flyer or fast skimmer. The unit may benefit from a cover save as normal for Jinking. Once this attack has occurred, the Flyer

may complete its move as normal (provided it is still in the air). Should the Gargoyle Brood be destroyed it is worth Victory Points as normal. Surviving Gargoyles are placed into reserve and are deployed

next turn as normal.

Nothing filled the defenders of Dumansca with a greater

a Tankerfex just before unleashing its incendiary attack. A

specialised form of burrowing Carnifex, the Tankerfex hasgiven over much of its body to the storage of vast reservoirs

of bio-acid which it sprays in devastating gouts covering a

wide area and causing horrific burns to all encompassed.

Fortunately, this evolution appears to be in its early stages as

a well-placed shot to the engorged acid sacs causes them to

rupture, slaying he beast outright. After the disastrous

liquidation of B Platoon, the Imperial defenders learned not

to exploit this weakness while the creature was engaged in

TYRANID SUB-FACTION: GENESTEALER COVENA Genestealer Coven is a community of Genestealers, Genestealer-hybrids, as well as the

completely human convert-hosts, infected victims and genetic relatives known as Brood

Brothers, existing within another society. Such a cult forms if a Genestealer infects membersof another species with its genotype. The resultant changes in the genome of the host cause

a fanatical loyalty to the Genestealers as well as a drastic change to their reproduction

system; their firstborn children will be Hybrids, a grotesque mixture of the host's race and

Genestealers. These hybrids infect further victims, and the infection spreads exponentially.

Fourth generation hybrids produce Purestrain Genestealers, and the cycle starts once again.

This brood of Purestrains, hybrids and Brood Brothers is held together by strong psychic and

genetic bonds, and assembles around the original Genestealer which becomes the

Patriarch.

Because this community is often hidden behind the facade of a religion or political

movement, it is called a Genestealer Coven or Cult by the Imperium.

Genestealers are effectively the heralds of Tyranid invasion, because the psychic power of

the Patriarch shines like a beacon in the Warp and is perceived by the Hive Fleets of the

Tyranids. As the coven's power grows over the world, the beacon becomes stronger,

signalling to the Tyranids the location of a biologically rich world. By the time the Hive Fleets

arrive, the world may already be completely in the hands of the Genestealer cult, or torn

apart by civil war between the cult and the remaining free society, or at least weakened and

rife with traitors. However, after the planet comes to the Hive Fleet's notice, the destiny of

the cult is sealed, because all surviving members are absorbed like the rest of the planet.

BROODFATHERS OF THE COVENThe Genestealer Coven is selected using the latest edition of Codex Imperial Guard and

CodexTyranidswith the latest FAQ from Games Workshops website. Please contact us atthe Tempus Fugitives if you do not understand this point. A Genestealer Coven may include

The Imperium remains the galactic empire under which the majority of

humanity is united. The founder and ruler of the Imperium is the god-like

Emperor, the most powerful human psychic to date. Founding the Imperium

ten thousand years ago, he continues, at least nominally, to lead it.

The Imperium is the largest and most powerful political entity in the galaxy,

consisting of at least a million worlds, which are dispersed across most of the

galaxy. Consequently, an Imperial planet might be separated from its closest

neighbour by hundreds or thousands of light years. As a stellar empire, the size

of the Imperium cannot be measured in terms of continuous territory, but only

in the number of planetary systems in its control.

When choosing an army to fight for the Imperium, you must use one of the

Codexes detailed below. In all cases the most recent edition of the army Codexwill be used. These are the only armies permitted in this Faction during the

weekend. If you have any further questions regarding army selection, please

contact the event organisers before the weekend and check the forums at

www.tempusfugitives.co.uk.

The published Codices used in this campaign for the Imperium are: Codex Blood

Angels, Codex Black Templars, Codex Dark Angels, Codex Imperial Guard, Codex

Grey Knights, Codex Space Marines and Codex Space Wolves. Furthermore the

Cult Mechanicus Codex found on the Tempus Fugitives website is used. All

supplementary rules to your Codex can be found in this pack with the exception

of the Vanguard Siege Assault army list for Space Marines which can be found in

Imperial Armour Volume 10. Allied detachments may be chosen from any of

the above Codexes.

There are several units which may be taken by this faction during the Tyrannic War campaign. They are detailed on the following pages and are considered fully usable for this

narrative campaign weekend. However, they are not to be considered official in any way outside of the Tyrannic War narrative campaign weekend. Where a unit is restricted to

one sub-faction, it is clearly indicated in the unit entry.

abilities. Units with the Deathwatch special rule count as scoring.

Deathwatch Blackshields: On occasion an astartes will present themselves to a Watch station with no markings on their armour to indicate their Chapter of

origin. It is traditional to induct these warriors and ask no questions of their past. As Blackshields their life is now forever dedicated to the Deathwatch. Since the

Badab War a large number of warriors have presented themselves to Watch Librarian Shaidan, perhaps sensing a kindred spirit. As a result, if you include Watch

Librarian Shaidan in your army, you may include an additional Deathwatch squad. These additional marines should bear no Chapter markings.

The work of the Deathwatch requires many diverse skills and abilities. It is an unusual situation that the Deathwatch faces

where the heroism and superhuman abilities of the Astartes are insufficient to overcome it. That said it is an arrogant Watch

Captain who does not at least consider the assistance of the Ordo Xenos and their plethora of human and alien followers.

Deathwatch Stormraven 4 12 12 12

Usually found in service to the Blood Angels Chapter, it was Watch Captain Zedrenael, who brought the first Stormraven into the

service of the Deathwatch. So exceptional was the performance of these craft that Watch Commanders across the Segmentum soon

acquired a limited number for wider use. With Deathwatch crew, sometimes the only assistance a Watch Keep can provide is a lone

Stormraven gunship. Usually it is more than enough.

Assault Ramp: Units disembarking from a Stormraven may assault on the same turn it lands. You cannot assault after deep striking.

Ceramite Shielding: In order to resist the heat of atmospheric entry a Stormraven has thick ceramite shielding. Melta Bombs and

weapons with the Melta special rule never roll an extra dice for armour penetration against a Stormraven.

SCYTHES OF THE EMPEROR CHAPTER MASTER THORCYRA HQ UNIT 210 POINTS

SCYTHES OF THE EMPEROR CAPTAIN THRACIUS THRACIAN HQ UNIT 200 POINTSAN ARMY USING CODEX SPACE MARINES MAY INCLUDE EITHER OF THESE CHARACTERS. YOU MAY INCLUDE BOTH CAPTAIN THRACIAN AND CHAPTER MASTERTHORCYRA BUT IF YOU DO SO ONLY THORCYRA CARRIES THE EMPERORS SCYTHE AND THRACIAN INSTEAD IS EQUIPPED WITH A RELIC BLADE.

Among the planets overwhelmed by the locust-tide of Tyranid hive fleet Kraken was the chapter's homeworld Sotha. Eve n for a well-defended Chapter p lanet, there was

little hope against such vast numbers and relentless hunger, and in the end the Chapter brethren were killed in the last stand on the planet. All brethren were presumed

destroyed, but a small number had escaped in order to preserve their chapter and gene-seed.

Sotha, along with so many other planets in the inexorable advance of the Kraken, was reduced to the state of an asteroid by the Tyranid swarms. Two hundred Marines

broke through the Tyranid assault. With much of the region overwhelmed by the Tyranids, there was nowhere to escape. The last of the Scythes eventually landed on the

death world of Miral. Somewhere on the surface of this planet, a huge rocky outcrop called the Giant's Coffin rose from the jungle. The surviving forces of the Scythes

prepared to make this their final stronghold. The Giant's Coffin was a tremendous natural citadel whose steep cliffs would sl ow the invaders and the r ocky promontories

would provide excellent firing positions for heavy weapons. Although the defences of the Scythes were strong they were still overwhelmed. Chapter Master Thorcyra met

his end on Miral and the Scythes were forced to withdraw under the command of Captain Thracian.

Options: Thorcyra is a Chapter Master and as such you may include an Honour Guard if your army

has him present. Thracian is a Captain and may take a Command Squad.

Chapter Tactics: Pragmatic and determined, if you include Thracius Thracian and/or Chapter Master

Thorcyra then all units in your army exchange the Combat Tactics special rule for the Preferred Enemy

(Tyranids) special rule. If more than one character in your army has the Chapter Tactics special rule

you must choose which will apply.

Last Stand of Thorcyra: An army that includes Chaptaer Master Thorcyra may take Sternguard

Veterans Squads and Terminator Squads as Troop choices. However any unit taken as such loses the

Deep Strike special rule if they have them and may not select a Drop Pod as a dedicated transport.

Emperors Scythe: In his last official act, Master Thorcyra passed this weapon to Captain Thracian of

the Third Company, the only Captain of the Chapter still alive. Rather than using their own Attack

value, a model using the Emperors Scythe may, if they wish, i nstead make a number of attacks equal

to the number of enemy models in base contact will t hem.

In the time leading up to the cataclysm the Eldar refer to as the Fall, not all

the Eldar that remained on the homeworlds fell into the lure of Slaanesh.

Many remained, struggling to turn their species from its doomed path.

Unable to do so, several of the greatest Seers caught glimpses of the

darkness to come, and undertook a titanic effort to save their people. For

each Eldar homeworld a gigantic ship was created, sung from Wraithbone

and so massive to be nearly a planetoid itself. The last uncorrupted people

from each world were loaded onto these ships, along with works of art,

plant life and animals, all that could be saved. In these Craftworlds (as they

came be known) the final Eldar Exodus began, and only barely in time. The

psychic shockwave caught some of the Craftworlds and destroyed them,

while others were pulled into orbit around what became the Eye of Terror.

The rest drift through the galaxy, their exact number uncertain, as contact

became difficult and intermittent.

The Eldar are an aloof and unpredictable presence in the galaxy. They attack
