The thing is, it fits their release pattern thus far. It's fairly certain that we'll get something in December, and all signs point toward it being Nids. Not to mention the Christmas angle - I know that pretty much everyone who is getting me a Christmas present will get me Tyranids if there's a release in December!

Everything just fits! Only problem for me is that if I don't sell off my old un-used armies, I won't be able to get any Tyranids until mid-January at the absolute earliest (buying a PS4+games). Being in Australia just doubles the issue lol.
I'll make sure to get the codex on release day, but other than that, all those (probable) lovely new models will have to wait for me :(

In all 6 years of 40k, I have never known GW to release a new army in December. Equal favour to all armies to boost Xmas sales.

Normally I 'd agree but this years release pattern has been widely different - so many army books/codex one after each other, an army getting 2 months of consecutive releases [dark elves]- plus the normal "equal favour" releases are already up on the GW website- the painting/scenery/army bundles. If the normal release stuff is already released what are they going to do in December then?

"I want Tyranids to be everything they are now but better in every way. I want point drops on every unit, better stats and more options, I also want more units because Tyranids don't already have some very viable builds. Tyranids also need Super Fleet where they roll 4D6 and pick the highest 3, and reroll all 1s and 2s. Carnifexes must now also be good in combat, because they don't already destroy stuff in range with Twin Linked Devourers. On top of this, I want new models for everything, a Genestealer supplement and models for those too, in fact, Tyranids should be able to completely own marines in assault as well, despite the fact they're super-soldiers and cost a lot more points."

That is hardly fair. It is well known that Nids are in quite a predicament at the moment, and that, among other things, Carnifexes are overpriced. Yes, there will always be overzealous wishlisting, but they are in dire need of improvement. Are Tyranid players not allowed to want their armies to, you know, actually be viable? The Tau got a huge improvement, but we're supposed to just be content with overpricing, removal of options, and getting shot down before getting into combat?

The Tau were good enough before their new codex, an easy transition into 6th without the reduction of pts on every other unit would have been fine in my opinion. Tyranids are not below par, I've gone up against them enough times to know this. I'm not trying to say that this is every Tyranid player (the above was sarcasm, you know where I'm coming from..), but after a simple skim of this thread all I can see is ridiculous wishlisting. 'Tyranids need to go faster' Is fleet not enough? 'Tyranids need a Genestealer Cult' Do they really? 'Pyrovores suck' Don't use them then. It's the same as Vanguard Veterans, there's always that one overcosted unit, just don't use it. And yes, Carnifexes may be a bit overcosted but that doesn't stop them from being viable at shooting, whack them in cover and have them take shots at aircraft or light tanks and you'll see that they're not as bad as you try and make out they are. Tyranid armies are more than viable, there are a lot of different ways to play them which split into three main categories: Nidzilla, endless swarm or one I like to call 'psychic rape'. They're pretty self-explanatory. And, yes you may get shot down before getting into combat if you're a fool and play without cover, or if you happen to pick the wrong sort of army format, for example Nidzilla vs Plasma Spam Dark Angels, there's no way you're getting out of it and it's bad luck. But if you happened to play an endless swarm against that army you'd win hands down.
Please tell me you can see where I'm coming from.

Well... Endless Swarm isn't viable anymore as an army build. And when you say Nidzilla and Psychis Rape, its the same army... Because our only good MCs are Tervigons, Flyrants and the Swarmlord. Which are all good Psykers. Basically, Nids have one build that's good, which is Psychic Monster Mash with a few Elites thrown in. Having one list becomes predictable. Most of the arguments here don't want THAT much, just viable Close Combat as a replacement for Psychic Stupidity. And lets just say, Space Marines don't cost "way more points" than Genestealers. They're the same cost, except the Marine has way better gear. But we all want decent CC, good speed to get there, and we'll accept subpar shooting as a result.

Endless Swarm isn't viable anymore why exactly..? Orks seem to do this quite well, as do Imperial Guard (I know you will argue that there's transports and blah but you have far superior numbers). There's nothing wrong with the Tyrannofex, Carnifex etc. in regards to Nidzilla, and by Psychic Rape I mean Zoanthropes, HT/SL, Tervigons etc. etc. And, IIRC Genestealers have Outflank and Rending Claws... By the way, you already have decent CC, better speed than almost every army in the game on foot and awesome short-ranged shooting.

Wow, seriously? Nothing wrong with the T-fex and the Carnifex? ORKS DO NOT DO WELL DAMNIT, they are probably the worst army out there, MAYBE sisters of battle are a little worse, but just maybe.

Have you EVER played a proper game of 6th edition? As in, against good players?

HOWEVER bad your arguments and reasoning are you do make a good point. Nids are not inferior to many other armies. I have placed well with them in tournaments and have beaten both Tau and Eldar several times. Why? Because I play the 10-ish units that we can play, Flyrants, Swarmlord, Doom, Zoanthropes, Ymgarls, Hive Guard, Tervigons, Termagaunts, Gargoyles Trygons and Biovores. And some of those (ymgarls, swarmlord and flyrants) are way overpriced for what they do. We have a codex with about 30 different units, 10-ish of which are playable. This is sad and will hopefully change, I would like to use my 10 carnifexes, my harpy, my 120 hormagaunts but I can't because they suck donkey balls in 6th edition.

Insulting the person doesn't make your argument any stronger -_- And, Orks aren't bad, I've seen people win against much "better" armies with Orks.
And yes, I do play 6th Edition with people at my FLGS thank you very much, and while I may not be a tournament player I know that Tyranids can win.
And, basically your argument is: If you play the units that aren't playable you lose.
Really.
You think??
And I am aware the the Tyranid Codex was messed up quite a lot with a lot of things very overcosted for what they do but I just think that people are wishlisting a lot of ridiculous things, if they were to have everything that everyone wanted they'd be a super army. Either:
Cost them down
Give them more speed
Give them better units
You can't have everything.

I'll admit it's generalisation but it's not misinterpretation. Essentially what people want is a fast-moving foot-slog army with loads of infantry supported by cheap, indestructible MCs with psychic power out the wazoo and that's just BS.

No one is arguing to make them a super army. People are raising improvements they personally think would help things, likely influenced by which models they own and want to use in future. Literally nobody in this thread has said "all Tyranids should be faster, cheaper and better", with the exception of your sarcastic jibe.

You have sifted through the thread and combined everybody's opinion into one, and now you're claiming it's too much as if everyone who posted ideas automatically agrees with everyone else. I'm aware of the irony of all Tyranid players being part of some hive mind with a single opinion, but it may shock you to learn that this isn't the case.

While your obviously trolling, you just listed what every army "wants". How about Tau... Fast moving jump suits... check... Indestructible MCs.... Riptide.. check... Eldar... Fast moving run shoot run... check... MC... Wraithknight. check... Sounds like you hate every army..

Well it is. You are making the claim that all players want this, which isn't true. I'm fairly sure people just want a decent army.

Also, I don't even know why I'm replying to you since it was obvious from the start that you are trolling.

GW do want money but have a bloody odd way of going about it. For example, I was considering getting back into WHFB, which would have meant starting from scratch. Having seen the recent price hikes i've started two new WM/H factions instead. Why? Because PP are moving units from metal to plastic and significantly dropping the cost...not raising unit number requirements and upping core unit costs at the same time.

I digress.

I have been playing Nids since the beginning of Second edition so spare models aren't a problem for me but having said that i don't want to see things getting cheaper and even more hordey.

What I want is for Nids to start being deadly in CC again. Tyranids need to better. Check.

Yes, Hormagaunts need to be faster across the table again but they also need to go back to WS4 so that they don't take as many casualties in CC. Faster? Check. Better? Check.

People need to have a reason to fear Genestealers in assault. Carnifexes actually need to be difficult to take down like they were in 2nd Edition. I'd like Lictors to stop being glorified homing beacons and actually something capable of tearing up a unit or two of backline troops in hand to hand by itself. Better? Check. Tougher? Check.

I want Nids to be as deadly to a Marine in assault as that Marine is to the Genestealer at range. Better? Check. But I doubt that will happen because too many Marine players will sulk. This would come as a painful shock to many Marine players (who still pout when non-Marines finally manage to win out in CC after three or four rounds of assault).

As to the fact we have had one image then nothing. I still think that was to do with Prodos launchign their AvP KS.

But I really hope that this comes out December, I think the new kit on pg1 looks good same flavour as the rest of the army. Hopefully the new codex has lots of new background stuff just saying :p

@Da krimson barun
I'm interested in seeing whats in the new white dwarf! Hopefully you get that info up as soon as you get it i'm sure you will!

If there is a new tyrannid release I wonder if there will be a new giant model like riptide/wraith knight---sorry if I missed something refering to this earlier haha

**Eldercaveman**

I was at Warhammer World yesterday, and had a chance to venture into the miniatures hall, (which if you have never been to, you really should make the journey. Kind of felt like a GW Mecca) and their was only a hand full of the Tyranid models on display, the majority had been taken away for 'campaign or photographing, and could appear In an issue of White Dwarf soon'(paraphrased). This could mean something, it might not. But it's a thing.

Also there is the most incredible Nids vs Space Wolves diorama.
