The plan is to place the Bastion centrally in front of my deployment zone to allow the venomthrope to hide inside and grant a larger shrouded bubble. Combining the shrouded save with area terrain and gaunt cover should provide most of my force with a 3+ cover save, making my force pretty resilient in the center of the table. Quad gun also helps against reserves. Flyrants will run interference taking rear shots at vehicles and eventually troops with their TL Dev. They can also fire off maledictions at targets of opportunity. Mawlocs will hit any infantry in the open or anything with big guns. Carnifexes fire HVC at light or medium vehicles, just hoping to suppress one a turn. Once anything comes close they use the TL Dev as well. Zoanthropes and Tervigon can roll any powers (except the nova) and use it effectively in this list.

Very impressive! I haven't been active here for a few months so I'm not sure if this is a popular new list or strategy for nids, but the venomthrope-bastion combo sounds very powerful. I suggest taking a scalpel squad or MC that can deal great amounts of damage to a single squad so that if your opponent has something with ignores cover like a heldrake that you can quickly eliminate it.
