You won't need the extra shots on horde armies, as you have the combat power to gank them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/212957/309543.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/212957/309543.page GMT
I think your genestealer squads are a bit big, it only takes about 3-4 of them getting into CC to make your opponent wish they hadn't. I run 2x squads of 8 in my nidzilla list and they tend to do more damage than anything on the board.

Also, unless you really like warriors (I'm personally not a fan, so take this with a grain of salt) I'd move your dakkafexes into the elite slots and put some more big guns onto the fexes in the HS slots. If you do want to keep the warriors for the more hordey effect, I'd drop the dakkafexes for some VC fexes like Lords said. It is kind of cool and themey that you have so many warriors, but remember that toughness 4 and a 4+ save only get you so far - even with 2 wounds.

Another option for increased AT power is a couple more Zoanthropes, but they are a bit expensive for a 24" lascannon.

Anyways, hope this helps. Glad to see another Tyranid player not playing with that flyrant mumbo jumbo.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/212957/309596.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/212957/309596.page GMT
I think Reinforced Chiton (+1 W) is probably the closest to a must have, so could throw that in....

Thanks,
