We all have them. That one model that seems to grab the entire table's firepower. What is your personal bullet magnet in standard and apoc?

Deathstar units or Obliterators. And any MC that closes the distance too fast. Since I run a MC heavy Nid list most of the time, EVERYTHING tends to be a bullet magnet. However they tend to pick off one at a time.

Shadowsword.
It gets so many terminators with thunderhammers on it that sometimes I wish I could rig it to self destruct and take out the whole deathwing at once. Also with the ammount of long range fire levelled at it, it gets so many gun shaken results it often goes entire games without firing it's main gun.
Other than that it is usually the trio of demolishers I like to field.

Trygon. When you place the model on the field, your opponent just gapes in horror at the size of the model.
I heard two tables over when I put it down:
"HOLY ****"
"Wha...That thing is huge!
"They playing Apoc?"
"No, that thing is in the new 'Nids codex..."

Mattieu~~~~ It's not that eldar are bad, it's that they require a lot of intergration between units. Also, that doesnt prove anything other than GW has a huge hard-on for marines, and, given the option between making a xeno the best psykers or making a marine the best psyker, they will 9 times out of 10 choose the marine.

When I play Eldar it's the Avatar. Not surprisingly that's the main reason he is even in the list. So if he's drawing fire and distracting, he's done his job.

Because, no offense, they're still just bastardized Valkyries. One of the better conversions I've seen to be sure, though.
Anyway, my bullet magnet is my Land Raider Redeemer that transports Ragnar Blackmane, a Wolf Priest, and 9 Blood Claws.
