Ok. Well, if you want to get into a proper assault with your Tyrants/guard/troops/ravenors then I would probably suggest getting rid of the gaunts and maybe the hormogaunts and replacing them with fast moving stealers. Better in H2H, better able to back up the ravenors and tyrants against anything solid, and able to smack up any high initiative troops out there (eldar/dark eldar) as well as I4 troops. Also, at that point you can either turn both Zoanthropes into AT as nodes aren't really needed, or get rid of them and put something else in. Up to you though. If you want to shoot with some counter assault, then stick with your list. But then the ravenors and Tyrants and Nids are kind of the most overweighted counter assault force i've ever seen.

Thanks for the advice lords2001... I think i'll stick with the gaunts... hormagaunts for tying up opponents through fast assault... and termagaunts for meatshields and just plain numbers... thanks for the advice though...
