No new models, as I would like to make something work out of what I have.
If I am going to buy any new models, I guess it will be the new plasmagun guy.
I think the new flyers look terrible, as I see ADL with the quadgun alot, and expect it to die FAST!

Plan is to push forward with everything, but keeping the Tervigon and the Biovores as long back as possible while still providing synapse. With psy.power the terv will get a 24" Synapse, which can help when the Tyrants start dying.

I hope that I can put enough pressure on my opponent to leave the tervigon, but expect all synapse creatures to be targets.

Plan is to walk Gaunts, followd by carnifex and venomthropes upwards while flying with my tyrants and hopefully early start to rain sporemines and mawlock on annoying shooters in opponents backfield.


What do you think?

Looks pretty good except:

Consider dropping Regen, and giving him Miasma Cannon. Also consider dropping the Norn Crown for a Zoanthrope.

Yes, I was, but then again , most lists will take out a single Zoanthrope quite easy. I was hoping to let the regen make the Tervigon hopefully last another turn.
By buying him up to 24" synapse, I hoped to be able to hide him behind LOS blocking terrain or at least in a defensive position in the backfield. Without it forces me at least additional 6" forward when my Tyrants start to fall.
But the Miasma Cannon might be more useful than the regen, as I guess my oponent should prioritize taken him out in one round anyway.

Why no ADL or at least a bunker with barricades?

Your Heavy Support has 3 good choices but not duel threat redundancy or complimentary units. Everything does different things and moves at different speeds.

Which is sort of the theme of the army. I'd try to figure out whether you want to go down his throat straight away or walk up the board. Then take units that do that.

Maybe drop the second guant squad and take a warrior squad. You only have the tervigon for synapse as the tyrants will be likely flying in the enemies face. They can concentrate on the Tervigon and pop her and and kill most gaunts and then the venomthropes don't have synapse. What about 2 venothropes in 1 squad and then taking a zoanthrope for more synapse just mo
