Hello, I am considering about tyranid shrieke conversion (3 models) and I am having trouble how to arm them. Their mission is to provide fast moving synapse. Wings I convert from gargoyles. As their basic weapons are talons and devourer, I could replace talons with wings and upgrade devourers into deathspitters. Maybe also one having bio cannon. What do you think about these?

Flesh hooks and rending claws are all they really need, though you could add adrenal and/or toxin if you want close combat (for me this is it as there save is...not good) or leave the stock guns and leave off the hooks adrenals and toxins. For me i always have rending as you never know what they could be upagainst and it doesnt leave them entierly unarmed against av11 plus.

Devs for shooty ones.. Lash whip/bonesword for CC ones..

But that is current ruleset, and advice may change in the next month

I wouldn't arm them until 8th comes out and you see what options they end up with.
