This is the list I plan on running in my stores end of year tournement. Any ideas or suggestions to make it better? Any suggestions are welcome.

Hi!

My suggestion is to make two or even three blobs of genestealers and change the Hive Mind to Kraken. Genestealers is soooo much better with the strategems and to almost always have a 5-6'' on the advance-roll.

Maybe to Flyrants is a bit much, maybe drop one for more genestealers and another Neurothrope. Make one big blob of the termagaunts and add one more ripper? They are amazing for grabbing objectivs.

Do you have any Biovores? The most OP unit in the game, maybe tied with Hive Guards I would make a Vanguard or Spearhead-det for Kronos, just for the extra commandpoint.

Looks like a fun list! Behemoth is plenty good for tunneling Broods, the only "flaw" is no Hive Guard, but you have the Exocrenes, so you should be "OK".

Good luck! And good hunting!

As of now I only own 30 genestealers and have no hive guard or biovores yet. Should I just drop the Hormagaunts for two squads of 15 genestealers in the trygons?

genestealer all day every day

Because you're Behemoth the Hormies are just fine, burst out, lock up, and you have a Strat that rolls Mortals on 6's when charging(2+ for a Monsterous) thats a good 3 -6 MW with a full size Brood

But, you might want to get more Stealers down the line.

yeah. Biovores are amazing. Its frustrating they are 40 dollars per 33 point model. like. wtf

Glad I got mine back in 3rd ed for 15 a piece

At the tournament we went 2-1 and placed 3rd. The list worked like a dream and our matchups weren't too bad.

Game 1: Dark eldar
In this game it all came down to turn one and my alpha strike did it's work and everything made it's charge. Tabled him on turn 3.

Game 2: Chaos
This matchup went poorly. He had 3 40 man squads of cultists and my hormagaunts failed thier charge and it went downhill from there.

Game 3: Space Marines
This matchup was a little tough but we ended up tabling him on turn 4. The genestealers and trygons were the all stars and killed most of his tanks.

In the end I was happy with the outcome but some things need to be changed. For example I'm pulling out a tyrant and replacing him with a nurothrope and genestealers. Also dropping an exocrine for 6 hive guard. Thank you to everyone for helping me with the list!
