Here's a 2000 nidzilla list I've created using the new tyranid codex. The strat of this list is to huddle the mc around the venomthrope and behind the termaguants to ensure a 3+ cover. So termaguants will circle around the mc and venoms as a meat shield. FMC will come in as a relief force to help take out some infantry and try to pin as many units as possible with the stranglethorn cannons. I've play tested this list out and am currently undefeated with this list. What do you guys think about this list and what would you do with this list

No troops. Can't see how you win an objective mission except on slay the warlord etc. In a tournament setting where these secondaries count for less your only option is to table the opposition which is not always easy.

Forgot to mention that in my flgs, we usual play just purge the alien. So my list is set for that type of play.

Well you have 4 HS and you're only allowed 3. No troops is an issue and playing just Purge the Alien is not really playing 40k.

You seem to love Stranglethorne cannons but they aren't great. HVC at least gives some AT and Devourers are still the best bet on most MCs.

20 Termagants will not make a very strong meatshield.

Hive Crones are significantly better than Harpies.

The Venomthropes work best with an ADL that way you get 2+ cover and the ADL can't be shoot off by light firepower like the Termagants can be.
