So my LGS is having another call to arms, this one being 1250 points of any army. I've opted to go with Tyranids as I've recently come into possession of a fairly large army of them. This list is not necessarily to be competitive, but to be a supplement to my existing troops. Unlike the last army build like this, the list does need to be legal. Here is what it is so far:
Parasite of Mortrex
160 pts.
3 x Hive Guard
150 pts.
7x Genestealers (Toxin Sacs + Adrenal Glands)
140 pts.
7x Genestealers (Toxin Sacs + Adrenal Glands)
140 pts.
3x Raveners (Deathspitters)
120 pts.
1x Trygon Prime (Adrenal Glands + Regeneration)
275 pts.
1x Trygon Prime (Regeneration)
265 pts.
The uneven Trygon load outs was to even out points.
The deadline for this build is Jan. 13.

But there is no more stirring sight in war than the charge of massed cavalry."

It's an army speed build with one model having no GW production model. There will be much painting and some modeling. Just giving some background if that's alright with you.

You should request it to be moved to p&m blogs...
Any ideas on how you are going to make the Parasite of Mortrex?

Probably going to base it off of a gargoyle, considering it has wings/is jump infantry. Add some pointy bits to make it special, some rippers at the bottom for fluff support. It's not going to be anything too crazy.

I'd base it off a Warrior instead of a Gargoyle... Like a bigger Shrike or something.

I suppose, but cost is an issue. Warriors don't come with wings and gargoyles already do...

*sigh* I don't know why I start these, I never have time to finish. I suppose I'll still post the results when I get around to finishing them.
