You can never have enough dreads

Go my 400 tyranid guants! attempt to penetrate thata rmour with sticks and stones!


I would be interested how you would use your tyranids against this army. One strategy might be to assault the counting units (the two 5 men scout squads) and eliminate them. This should be no problem for 400 pts of gaunts. Or am I wrong? Even with both units have a 3+ cover save holding ruins (one with camo cloacks, the other scout squad having the benefit of a fortified position by the motf).

That would leave me with having to annihilate every single of your units in the agreed number of turns. That would hardly be possible if there is cover (how sensitive are tyranids to wittled down "squad" sizes, do they just run away? Or does it all depend on the synapse creatures?)

Cheers,
Martin

I used to collect WarZone and Void minis but have sold them off after my first look at the Black Reach box.

Update: the master of the forge is finished. What cannot be seen in the pictures is a second servo skull attached to his backpack.

That MoF conversion is really bizarre.. but in a really cool way. What's the plan for painting him?

Cheers! Plans on painting him is a) like the dread colour test on page 1, or b) like his infantry, white with brown washes.

Although I will post my painting progress also, I do have to warn that I am no painting god. But I might learn the odd thing or two.

Gotta say I am especially impressed with the dual autocannon dread, nice cheap conversion.

Hey folks! There's reason to revive this thread:

After basing and priming the army I did not make it to finish them. My two boys keep me too busy.
So I put them up on eBay!

Have a look:
