I wanted to try mixing some good close combat units with some good shooting. This list is by no means competitive but is rather meant to have really high threat saturation as Tyranids usually do haha. Let me know what you guys think

So the Swarmlord (hoping the swarmlord will draw a lot of fire) and carnifexes will rush up the board while the trygon will be deep striking. The Kronos spearhead will sit back and shoot as they do and their flyrant will go where he’s needed. Hopefully my opponent will have a hard time focussing anything down because everything is very deadly.
