Just wanted your opinions on this list that I'm taking to a tournament real soon

Hive Crone

Total Formation = 845

Total army = 1500

Only real concern is the one Crone, so would have to play carefully, no way I can fit in points without neglecting certain models. Thoughts?

I think this list beats my 2k nid list to be honest, it looks very very good to me...
Tell us how you fare at your tournament will you

Haha Flyrants are great if you're not taking Skyblight take double CAD

Looks very nice! Not much room to swithch things around...The only place you can "save" points is dropping the Malanthrope for a Veno. And I don't think that is a worthwhile change. You'd just end up taking a Zoey to get more Synapse anyway.

I'd like to hear how this does, so if you get a chance, please post some results.

Yeah,would probably drop the Rippers for barebones Termagants which need babysitting, would miss additional 2 WC but I have no-one to effectively make use of it really...Malanthrope too good anyway

I'll try and get a batrep, can't promise though as my camera's are pretty bad and people seem to like pictures or videos
