Unit of 3 Biovores = 120 Tyrannofex = 175 Exocrine = 170 2 units of 2 Zoanthropes = 200 Unit of 2 Hive Guard = 110 Unit of 30 Termagants = 120 Tervigon w/Elect.G = 205 Reg.Flyrant w/Stranle.C & T.L.Devs & Hive Com. & Elect.G = 290 Unit of 22 Hormagaunts = 110 This list consists with some of the models I've got at the moment. This list is designed for a 1500 point tournament my gaming group is doing. I'm playing against Space Wolves first but if I'm able to beat them. My next opponent could be either Daemons / Tyranids / Orks / Tau / Necrons / Space.Marines. How do people feel this list would fair against other armies in the tournament. Please give some feedback. No Formations Allowed.

I don't see a Warrior Brood, if you have one of those, with Cannon...you can use the "Living Artillery" formation. You'l probably be happier if you stick with 2x Brain Leeches on both Tyrants, but that's not a major thing. I don't know why you have it priced at 290 though...I count Tyrant+Wings+ Stranglethorn+ Brain Leeches, add Hive Commander...I get 260.. Is there an extra Regen on there? If there is, drop it, and add a second Hive to the Tyranofex, having two templates is a major upgrade for 10 points. While I like Zoeys, and tolerate Hive Guard, if you have Venos, they might make a better buy for that third slot... If you can swing it a unit of Toxic Hormagaunts can be a nasty surprise to a wide range of foes...

Good luck, and good hunting!

Thanks very much for the comment. Should've said before but forgot to. We're not allowing Formations as some armies can't take any so wouldn't be fair. Only have the one Flyrant so don't know why you said something about a second one. Aha. Toxic-Hormagaunts become expensive quick so I'm thinking of either using them for an Objective Holder or a Tar-Pit Unit. Depending on what army I'm against. I'd Outflank the Tervigon or Termagants accordingly. I've got some Venomthropes but think their is enough stuff in the list to either provide at-least a 5+ Cover Save or the units Armour/Invulnerable save is good enough as it is. The Flyrant should be pretty damn distracting also. The Zoanthropes are there for more Psychic dice to cast & deny with while providing good Synapse & shooting incredibly strong powers.

... this is just plan nonsense! Would this be imperial armies who can all ally with each other? Formations are our ally, don't let people bully down the Nids with this sort of thing.

I would drop the regen and the stranglethorn from the tyrant. I would also drop the hive guard for some venoms. That shrouded can be invaluable for nids.

I'm hearing you about the Venomthropes but I'm in need of some anti-vehicle units. The Regen is also their to keep the Warlord more survivable. Could you imagine him with that and It Will Not Die from the Personal Warlord Trait. XD
