Got the Tyranid Mod for Dark Crusade, decided to play against the Imperial Guard on easy with super high resources. I begin, am doing well, holding my corner well enough. I blitz out with a swarm to capture the center relic, so I can build a Capillary tower in the center of the map and put morale debuffs on EVERYONE. I capture it, send two swarms of hormagaunts and a squad of warriors after a basilisk that's annoying me.
I look away from the center for two seconds, literally, and a MASSIVE armored column blows right through me. They didn't even stop to attack, they just drive-by'd EVERYTHING in the center of the map all at once. My jaw drops, then I look at the requisition counter, the only resource the Tyranids use.
35000. You wanna fuck with me? You want some of this huh? SPAM THE GAUNTS! SPAM ALL THE GAUNTS! AND CARNIFEXS AND WARRIORS AND SPORE MINES AND FUCKING EVERYTHING! SWARM THEM!
This is going well, I push the armored column out of my base, step by step, hundreds of gaunts dying for each tank, when I hear this, "Five minutes until Take and Hold Victory."
No. Goddamn you, you cheating bastard computer. No. More. Gaunts. Damn it.
I break the enemies forces apart, swarming over them like ants on scorpions. I swarm past them, fighting my way toward their base. With thirty seconds left, I finally find it. Not nearly enough time to bust down their command center. So instead I swarmed their units. I may lose this day, but I'm taking all these bastards with me.
Funnest skirmish I have ever played.
