Hey everyone, playing in a team tournament tomorrow. My team mate is playing orks, essentially speed freak style with squad of loots. I don't know all the details to his list. It's 1250/player. We decided to set up an army that would hopefully leave one of us at full strength in their lines. He is running trukks and hoping to be down there by turn two and I'm walking MC's across to act like the bigger hammer & anvil so to speak. as I have it I'm about 5 points over so I need some help. Thanks!

Swarmlord - 280
2 x Tyrand Guard w/Lashwhips - 130

3x Hive Guard - 150

10x Guants - 50

Tervigon - 185
Catalyst, Toxin Sacs

Trygon Prime - 250
Adrenal glands

Trygon - 210
w/Adrenal glands

This brings me out to 1255. There isn't anything that I feel like I can give up and not hurt me so I'm trying to kind of minimize losses. I don't want to change from the swarmlord as I feel like he will be a good counter to a lot of the close combat madness that the marine chapeters can put out. My first thought was getting rid of the trygon prime upgrade; however, I like have that extra synapse unit. What is everyone's opinion as to what I should do?

I'm not against a list overhaul, but I feel like this list and my team mate's has a lot of synergy. FWIW, I know my team mate has 2 units of trukk boyz and one unit of nobz and a boss as well as a squad of lootas. He's a good player so he has the Power claws on the nobz and the nob squad is tricked out appropriately I'm sure.

Thanks
