As the topic says I'm thinking of building a tyranid army. I want it to be pretty troop heavy, and with capabilities to take out, or at least stun enemy armour. Any suggestion for a solid allcomers 1500 points list to build an army around?

Troop heavy and anti-tank. Can't go wrong with a mix of hive guard, tervigon and gants, genestealers as your core. Start there and then develop your style.

I really like this build, what do the great internet think of it?

That's a no from me. 2 tervigons without catalyst, CC carnifex without a spore, no hive guard or zoanthropes for ranged AV.

How'd you fix it?

drop the dakkafexes, add catalyst to the two tervis that dont have it, split one of the screamer broods into two, add a spore to each of the individual screamers, add hive guard until you're out of points.
