Messing with Epic roster I came up with this based on some insight provided by members of Dakka and BATREPs. General all comers list is the idea. I know it has its weaknesses but doesn't every list depending on what army and make up your opponent unpacks? I think 'nid Warriors are going to end up being pretty helpful. To bad their not T5...

You need a bastion to hide the Venomthrope inside, also I prefer to have a Tervi for backfield synapse and scoring instead of the warriors, but that is a personal preference.

Also you went overboard with the warriors, they (like Tervigons) are to give synapse and scoring. They aren't front line fighters.

Also 2k is bad for nids unless you use dataslates or go for double FOC, 1 FOC with that amount of points is just to restrictive for an army that lacks allies.
