Hi guys got a tournament coming up next month taking Nids just want some C&C on my list

Hive Fleet Kronos

Flyrant w aderinal glands, scything talons
Flyrant w aderinal glands, scything talons
Broodlord

15 genestealers

15 genestealers

3 hive Guard
3 hive Guard
3 hive Guard

2 tyrannofex W rupture canons

Plan is to have the stealers and brood move up and avoid getting blasted with the hive Guard and big guns whittle down Flyrants are anti tank and hopefully the gun line will just sit back and wipe out most things with the re rolling ones

I'd take a unit of 6 hive guard to try to take advantage of the shoot twice stratagem. Not crazy on your flyrant load out. I'd take MRC which are free and not too much worse than the talons and add 2 devourers so you have some shooting and some CC. Kronos is good for your shooting but if you can use kraken on your stealers you are in their face turn 1 with relative ease.

Agree, take one unit of 6 HG. You need a malanthrope for the shooty part. Definitely agree you need kraken for the amount of genesealers you have. Might wnat to go splite fleet.

Kronos is bad for that list, your only shooty units are the 2 Tyrannofexes (unless hive guard have some awesome shooting I'm not aware of?). With those 45 Genestealers and choppy Flyrants I'd definitely take Kraken.

Thanks for the replies guys, not sure the formation Vanguard I think is still 3 elite slots so move the Hive Guard tyrannofex and a HQ to that under Kronos and use Kraken for everything else

If you don't know hive guard have ranged weapons (and arguably the best ranged unit in the codex) maybe best not to comment ...

Kronos should work just fine, But you should trim enough to add shooting to the Tyrants. You'd combine decent shooting with the ability to totally gank enemy psychers.

The will of the hive is always the same: HUNGER
