What do you want in the new nid codex?

**BrookM**

This is news and rumours, not wish-listing.

**Fishboy**

Either way I would like to see useful gargoyles. Every fluff story has the flying guys as the first wave but damn if they are not useless in the game heh.

**George Spiggott**

Lots of arbitrary decisions.

**Nurglitch**

Rules for changing terrain, like Barbed Stranglers producing difficult and dangerous terrain, or immobilizing vehicles they hit, or something.

Without Number on everything.

**forrestfire**

I want useful biovores and raveners. Also, I like the idea of terrain-altering weapons.

**LunaHound**

I want:

Lictor to ignore armor saves

if praying mantis can cut human skin
then scything talon that size for sure can ignore armor.

**deffskullz**

I want less emphasis on fex spam but still have carni's with there uses
Lictors should be a little stronger
Gaunts more empasis and ability to form a combat role
gargoyles need some power
biovores should be more powerful and have uses
thats prty much it

**Oshunai**

More anti-tank weapons. Like fixing my beloved venom cannon!

From the title of the thread, itseems that wish-listing is implied. I want my Trygon! I know they're making a plastic one, and it better not be for Apocalypse!

I had a pet praying mantis in high school, and as hard as it tried, it never cut me. Perhaps it's smart for a bug and realized where all those crickets came from. Best pet I ever had. For four months...

**Bascilica**

I want Old One Eye and The Red Terror re-instated because they're such amazing models.

And, for the sake of it, some form of myconetic bombardment
