Just updating my old lists to go to a few tournaments with. Not sold on the neurothrope yet but still think it's worth a try. Gave stabby mcstab the tyrant regen because with the ablative wound durability of it, it makes sense. Basically a minimal deployment list. Thought about losing the crone for a cc prime to sit with the gaunt blob but I don't know how that will play out, what are everyone's thoughts?

Looks interesting. I think the Regen, and Lash/Bone might be extra points that you can spend on other things....You already have LOS Gargoyles by the bushel... I am worried about the Pods sporting Stranglers because you could scatter onto your self. For the Devilgaunts that could be a disaster.

I would still put a Thorax Hive on Mcstabby, as it is still usefull on a CC Tyrant. I'm not sure what to spend the extra points on...but a Tunneling Ripper Swarm is cheap, and almost always useful.
