Any specific combo you had in mind? My advice though is for one of the armies to be totally self sufficient, like a knight, and to have them be fast moving. Don't get caught near eachother for tooo long, or let deploying far away from eachother cripple you. I had great success with a Nid/Knight army in late 6th edition that I dropped due to CTA bans. But, it's very fun and potent as I can easily keep flyrants clear of the knight.

Dark angels and tyrinids?

Tell me more.

Did you have a horde of nids or just flyrant spam with that knight?

need tactics for this list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/687408.page

Freakshow lists can do it. A Conclave of the Burning One can mesh well with a Dark Eldar/Eldar list. Similarly, the Tyranids have some nifty Ld shenanigans of their own to add to the mix.

Edit: Slaanesh daemons! Their psychic powers are great at taking advantage of the Ld penalties in a Freakshow, and their mobility reduces the CtA limitations a bit.
