The Deployment:
I set all my units in one place, around Abaddon.
My adversary had his Ripper Swarms, Raveners and a squad of Termagantsin reserves.

Tyranids Turn 1:
Termagants emerge from the ground along the Raveners and took out a squad of Havocs and a squad of Cultists. Genestealers killed another squad of Cultists, but I manages to kill a lot of them in overwatch.

Chaos Space Marines Turn 1:
I used pistols to kill the remaining Genestealers. Helbrutes killed some Genestealers from the second squad. Havocs kills a bunch of Termagants and inflicted some wounds on the Exocrine.

Tyranids Turn 2:
Termagants take down a Chaos Lord. Exocrine kills a Helbrute. Genestealers again have a lot of casualties in overwatch, but they take out another squad of Havocs.

Chaos Space Marines Turn 2:
Pistols kill the Genestealers. Abaddon kills a Broodlord. Havocs kill a lot of Termagaunts, the Exocrine and the second Broodlord.

Tyranids Turn 3:
I lose some Havocs and Abaddon takes 3 wounds.

Chaos Space Marines Tunr 3:
I kill the Raveners, the last of the Termagaunts and the Carnifexs.

The store closed so we left. Game ended in Tyranid victory. Tyranids 7-4 Chaos Space Marines.
