Hey people, any good Tyranid army lists or units you can't live without?
Just started with the'Nid battleforce, any suggestions or tips?

Units you can't live without? Hive Guard are usually a must.

Trygons be on the list of "gak you should always bring" too.

I would say Tervigons and Genestealers are good units you should run almost all of the time. The Termagants you spawn are awesome for sitting on an objective with their mommy, and Genestealers' ability to outflank and the fact they have rending and can auto-wound with TS, get furious charge with AG, or get both if you can find the points makes them an awesome troops choice.

**MechaEmperor7000**

Genestealers are good if you run em in large blocks and outflank with them. Moreso if you have other troops (such as Termagants) to draw them towards a table edge. Nothing is as painful as 20 Genestealers popping right beside you and getting the charge.

Cheers guys, looks like I'll be busy painting for the rest of the month!
