Bah I would rather stomp face with the list I normally run.

Prime for under 2k
Tyrant for over 2k

2 2x Hive guard
2x Zoanthropes in Pod

20 Termagants with Devourers
1 Tervigon
2 5x Genestealers with scything talons and toxic sacs
5 Warriors with Deathspitters
Maybe more Devgants. . . If I have points later on

1 Ruppter-fex
1 Mawloc

It is a simple list with many variants to it and very adaptive. It hurts when i can not kill Marines because of their save I have to whittle them down which is not hard with the numpres I pop out.

This would get hit in a few diffrent comp scores which to me is annoying. . .

@Wildstyle and Lysenis

I have been talking to a lot of bug players and they all say pretty strongly different things. The only consistent is:

Tervigons=at least 1
Hive Guard=at least 3
Zoenthrope=at least 1

Everything else, particularly HQ, is pretty wildly different. I think it is interesting. A missile wolf list, is a missile wolf list with only minor differences.

IG varies a lot in my experience which is the nice thing about a deep codex. But essentially they do the same things.

I am really looking forward to getting the rest of my bugs together and giving the army a spin. It will be a nice change of pace form my other armies which mostly shoot and only assault secondarily or with a handful of units.

From my experience, there are several ways to succeed with Nids. You'll win a lot, but find certain builds unbeatable for you.

Hit up my blog sometime it's all Nid stuff cuz that's all I play.

I will do that, thanks for the tip.

Which lists do you find difficult to overcome? I would imagine missile spam wolves would be one of the toughest match ups for a lot of Nid builds.

Well, they are one of the toughest match ups for any list, really.

Yeah chumbalaya is a local friend and I can't beat his 18 missile list yet.

Ghaz + 3 DR BW's and kff is very tough also.

Those are the only builds that I lose to consistantly, comp or no comp.
