I'm a former 4th Ed NidZilla player. I saw the damage they could do ONCE
they got to their objective. But, I used Genestealers, which was a mistake.
I needed something proactive vs reactive. My new NidZilla.

HQ: 730
2x1 Hive Tyrant: 2x Devours + Commander (one designated unit can flank)
2x3 Guard

TROOP: 560
4x28 Hormaguants

HEAVY: 1200
2x3 Carnifex: 2x Devours
1x2 Carnifex: 2x Devours

Formation: Double Pincer or Deny Flank depending on how the dice roll. The
basic principle is to tie up the enemy so they stop shooting my HQ. Then my
HQ shoots them.

H> X <H
H.ZZZ.H

Conclusion: The weakest link is the HQ. If he goes down the whole army goes
down. But, had the dex been well made like Tau, my primary army, I wouldn't be
having such a hard time making a decent list. Poor Nids. >
