Hello Dakka,
I was toying around with a list the other day so i thought I'd post it here.

Brigade Detachment

HQ

Swarmlord
Tervigon
Flying Hive Tyrant w/ adrenal glands and scything talons

Troops

10 Termagaunts
10 Termagaunts
10 Termagaunts
19 Genstealers /w andrenal glands
20 Genstealers /w andrenal glands
20 Genstealers

Elite

3 Tyrant Guard
Lictor
Lictor

Fast Attack

Mucolid Spore
Mucolid Spore
Mucolid Spore

Heavy Support

Trygon

Total Points 1997

So the plan with this list is to whack your opponents face turn 1.
The Tyrant will catalyst himself and fly screeching across the board at the enemy general, the Adrenal Gland Genestealers will ride their giant worms into battle and hog all the command points as they fail their turn 1 charges.
The Swarmlord will trek halfway across the board use his Hive Commander ability to ensure one Genstealer unit gets into combat. Meanwhile the Lictors will threaten any back-line artillery units later in the game but not actually do much.

Please give me feedback and improvements on this list or tell me what I did wrong as this is my first time posting here.

Random factoid: Genestealers cannot take Adrenal Glands; Toxin Sacs only. This should free up some points for you to play with.

Whoops

Yep, I suggest boosting the size of the Termagant Broods, the Terv can Replenish loses, but you can't replenish if the unit is wiped out. so maybe x15, or x20 to aid durability.

Better play larger terma units if you plan to play a tervigon 20-30 works fine

The wording on the tervigon replenishing is not favourable. You can replenish up to 10 that were killed. If the unit only took, say, 6 losses so far, you only get 6 back. A complete waste.

How is it a complete waste? You do not have to pay for Reinforcement Points if you are only replenishing lost models in a unit. Unless an enemy is dedicating a lot of firepower to eliminating a Termagant unit, then the Tervigon will always be able to replenish up to 10 per turn. If your enemy is focussing that much firepower to try to wipe a 120 point brood of 30 Termagants, then he's not pointing that firepower at something that is actually threatening... which is pretty much win-win for you.

Also, a Tervigon + 30 Termagants is a amazing objective holder; even more so if there's a Venomthrope hiding nearby and out of sight. You can also cast Catalyst on them. It's still an objective-based game, for the most part. They do a great job at holding objectives.

The termagants in three units is a very bad decision I know but I was going for the detachment (six troops)

Edit: I cant count >_>

if i can suggest you something... change lictors with deathleaper, take out 1 trygon and if want use fast support, use raveners instead of spores , or add 3 more hive guards.
