Heres my 1k point list I'll be using this week. Only tweaks I thnk I should have made was a ninjafex instead of 3x CC warriors. But I was worried about synapse. Spinefist instead of fleshborers was the second debate. Looking back I should have taken 1 more model per hormagaunt squad and got rid of the fleshborers I guess. I wanted those guys squatting on objectives to maybe get a chance to shoot and kill some guys.

Only the Zoanthrope can get inside a bunker or do anything to a Monolith/LRCraziness.
That is going to be annoying.

One of the worst issues to 'Nids with rend at best is +9 now is the NEED for MC.

shrug

Although I am new I am figure out some things fast so I redesigned your list with some changes. Just a noobie look from advice i have been given.

[i]Total Point: 999[i]
10 Less Models then yours but 3 new heavy hitters and better troops from what I have been told, the extra Zoan will help keep the gaunts in Synapse if you match then behind them. Just a thought. Not a lot of shooting but gets you into CC fairly quick with the Termigaunts sitting on objectives.
