Carnifex TLD + tyrannocyte 225

Bastion 75 + void shield 25

Could it work ? Having 6 FMC with so much flamers would be awsome. Moreover, drop poding carnifex should make a great diversion or be very annoying by holding an objective. Im open to your suggestions.

Looks pretty good! It is real light on Objective Secured, . But many current lists run that way. Good luck, and good hunting.

Pretty scary for anyone without much Skyfire! It seems to me that with all the shooting-gallery type lists out there, Nids really have to field a target denial list - whether by having everything in the air, or in pods, or deep-striking / out-flanking in other ways. I'm going for a more mixed approach myself but I would love to hear how this fares.

At some point, you might also consider Mawlocs - you could fit a bunch of them in, and add a comms relay to your Bastion to help them arrive on-time. It seems like that lone podding 'Fex is going to be murdered on arrival for sure, and Mawlocs might last a bit longer (and you've already got so many TL-devourers in the list with the Flyrants). Alternatively you could lose a Flyrant and the Zoanthrope to fit in two of them, if you were willing to go with 3 Flyrants.
