    Move from your dropzone to the first Relay Beacon, a defense perimeter guarded by Imperial Guardsmen.
  2. 2
    Administer the Bio-Toxin to the first Capillary Vein by right-clicking it.
  3. 3
    Defend your position from a large swarm of Tyranids, using cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) and eliminating Tyranid leaders like the Warrior, Ravener, and Zoanthrope with Cyrus' [HIGH-POWERED SHOTS].
  4. 4
    Dispatch the approaching Carnifex with [CLUSTER MINES].
  5. 5
    Regroup your squad to attack nearby Brood Nests marked as red dots on your map.

    Proceed to the next Capillary Vein and capture the second Relay Beacon.

    Your other two squads will join you to defend this second perimeter.
  8. 8
    Deliver the Bio-Toxin to the second Capillary Vein and prepare for another swarm attack.

    Use the same tactics, staying close as a squad group to avoid being kited by Tyranid grunts.

    Place a "Teleport Homer on the Hill" by capturing the third Relay Beacon.
  11. 11
    Destroy scattered Brood Nests marked by red dots on your radar (your minimap with nearby blips and threats marked) map (minimap (the small circular map in the bottom-left corner of your screen)).

    Capture the third Relay Beacon; Space Marine platoons and Commander Angelos will arrive.
  13. 13
    Proceed to the final target location for the ultimate showdown.
  14. 14
    Fight the HIVE TYRANT ALPHA (179100 HP). Use Cyrus in [INFILTRATE] to deploy [LOCATOR BEACONS] and plant [CLUSTER MINES]. Have Tarkus use [TAUNT] and [TACTICAL ADVANCE]. Focus fire with [FOCUS FIRE], [BATTLE CRY], [MERCILESS STRIKE], and [ASSAULT CANNON BARRAGE]. Use [STIMULANT KITS] equipped on Tarkus to constantly revive everyone.
  15. 15
    The fight should conclude in under 2 minutes.
