Hi all, as in topic what do you think of this 1000p mini-list for a 3 obj. 4 Players game?
Maybe, but we will decide just a moment before the begin, we will play 2 vs 2.


QG - Tyrant - paroxism - leech ess. - sword and whip - stranglethorn cannon - 190
EL - 2x Hive Guards - 100
TR - 10x Termagants - 50
TR - Tervigon - Catalyst - Adrenal Glands - Toxin sacs - Scyt. talons - 200
TR - 10x Termagants - 50
TR - Tervigon - Catalyst - Adrenal Glands - Toxin sacs - Scyt. talons - 200
HV - Trygon - Adrenal Glands - 210

1000p


Unfortunately the combo "Hive Commander" on the Tyrant + "Mycetic Spores for the Tervigons" isn't easy to take with only 1000p.

Do you know what army you will be teamed up with?

I would suggest maybe some more Ranged stuff to kill vehicles. Maybe replace the Trygon with a squad of Zoans?

I would like to see how this list plays. I am afraid to run a nid army with so few models haha.

i was going to suggest hive commander and sporing your entire army but .. as you pointed out hard to do at 1000 pts not sure i have mixed feelings about this list as a da player i love the idea of squishy bugs .. though they're not so squishy anymore . ok back on topic i would try to find the 90pts and field the doom

I will face for sure:

Salamanders with:
- Vulkan
- 1x Terminator sq.
- 1x 5 Scouts on Land Speeder Storm with Teleport Homer
- 2x Tactical sq. each one on a Rhino

Witch Hunters
- 2x "Tactical" each one on a Rhino
- 1x "whirlwind"
- 1x EL choice (the little sq with 6x flamers)

The third I don't know.. maybe Chaos SM with a Vindicator, Abadon and 5 Terminators + 2x 10 marines on Rhinos with Chaos banners.

Otherwise Orks, 2x 30 boys, no Nob, 1 Kopta, one cannon (simil Vindicator) on battle fortress.

Anyway not a lot of Fast Attack and mostly 24" ranged weapons.


Dropping the Scyt. Talons on the Tervigones and the Trygon I will can spend 180+40 for 3 Zoanth. in a spore but aren't they too much delicate and maybe not so better in comparison with a T6 - W6?
Versus mostly Rhinos and tacticals?

if your facing orks definately go with the doom of malanthai his attack goes off every shooting phase (even your opponents ) and orks are not know for there leadership rolling it on 3d6 gaurnteed to fail and keep him at 10 wounds which gives your opponents a choice kill the doom and ignore everything else or try to kill everything else while steadly losing models

So what about these changements:

QG - Tyrant - parox - leech ess. - wings - TL Devourers - 260
EL - 2x Hive Guards
EL - Doom of Malan'Tai
EL - 1x Zoanthrope
TR - 10x Termagants - 50
TR - Tervigon - Catalyst - Adrenal Glands - Toxin sacs - 195
TR - 10x Termagants - 50
TR - Tervigon - Catalyst - Adrenal Glands - Toxin sacs - 195

Please can you explaine me a little bit clearer how does it work the Doom's ability?
Ok for the 24" shot but one thing isn't clear to me.

The first turn he shot at ST4 and immediately we should counth 3W losts.
After, by calculating the eventual victims he maded we re-gain wounds? 'Til the 10 limin?
Does it work this way?

And another thing.. what does it mean that his "Leech Ess." similar ability work also in the enemy shooting turn?

looks pretty good to me just remember the doom gets wounds back for each wound he causes not just the special power of his

I like the new list a lot! let us know how the game goes.

As for how doom works, i will get back to you on that when i get home and have the codex infront of me
