- Intro text^[1]

Xenos Hunt is an Astra Militarum combat simulator, that is used to train Guardsmen on how to fight Tyranids.^[1]

Description

It features a round of combat that has three levels of difficulty, consisting of easy, intermediate and hard. Once a round begins, the Guardsmen have unlimited ammo to destroy twenty Tyranids, with some tougher ones requiring to be shot in sensitive areas in order to be killed. The Guardsmen will score points for not only killing the Tyranids, but also for the amount of time it takes them to do so. The shorter the time, the more points the Guardsmen will earn for their score. Any Guardsman that earns a perfect score of eight hundred points, will be given a re-assignment.^[1]
