Troops:
Whatever you have points left over for, usually genestealers or Without Number gaunts

Although this was a 4th ed bully list, it really isn't as terrifying in 5th. One main reason is all their guns are short to mid range and you can simply out shoot them at distance.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513124.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513124.page GMT Re:Can somebody take me through what a "Godzilla" Nid list is?
The elite carnis, at least two of them I arm with stranglers, they are good at keeping tanks from at the very least shooting you until you get there to crush them, ntm that stealers are not bad eather at getting rid of RA10 vehicles too when they pop in from the flanks. They heavy carnis I give venom cannons and stranglers too as well as the cheap free extra woound. believe me, seeing all those multi wound monstrous creatures on the board sometimes gives you the edge in intimidation alone.

Here is what I run and have had some luck with too

HQ: Tyrant w/two guards tyrant has bs, str, and implant attack ( I like to get him towards commanders and such to try and kill them) mostly run him to get close for action ( I dont have a winged tyrant so I make due with the walking variety).
Elite: 2x1 Carnis with stranglers
Elite: 1x1 Dakkafex
Elite: 3 warriors, 1 w/ venom cannon and 2 with death spitters.
Troops: 4x8 Stealers with scuttlers and feeder tendrils
Troops: 1x8 Spineguants, without number
Heavy: 3x1 Carnis with Venom Cannon and Barbed Stranglers, extra wound, increased save modifier, increased BS

I run the tyrant straight at em letting the guards absorb the hits, if they survive until combat, all the better for me. carnis dont sit back, they move forward and shoot and try their best to get into combat witih vehicles, if lots of troops move about shooting them up with pie plates. warriors hang back providing synpase for the guants who sit on a home base objective, if the get wiped out, more show up :-) stealers are just mean and nasty, and since they hit the flanks and come in reserve, enemy never knows what to expect and when. htey hit hard, believe me.

my thoughts anyhow.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513183.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513183.page GMT Can somebody take me through what a "Godzilla" Nid list is?

Problem is they make most Elite Fexes too expensive.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513483.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513483.page GMT Can somebody take me through what a "Godzilla" Nid list is?

OP
Note that what is described before is "Nidzilla".

"Godzilla", or even geekier, "Gojira" usually refers to a army pattern that makes use of monstrous creatures and tough creatures in general. Which most of the time means Nidzilla.

It may also include "elfzilla" (which includes the vatar, wraithlords and wraithguard) and sometimes even some demon lists (bloodcrushers and bloodthirsters).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513855.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/513855.page GMT Can somebody take me through what a "Godzilla" Nid list is?

If you have a pile of power fists it isn't hard to beat. We Tyranids don't really get Invulnerable saves, so we can't overcome getting Fisted.

Also, other than HTH, Tyranids have only 1 way to overcome Marine armor, and that is bio-acid mines on Biovores.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/514030.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226852/514030.page GMT Re:Can somebody take me through what a "Godzilla" Nid list is?
Flying Dakka Tyrant
Stomping Tyrant with Venom cannon Scything talons and biomorphs I can afford.
Lictors x3
2x Dakkafex (2x twin-linked Devourers, enhanced senses)
2x (Genestealers x8)
2x (Gaunts withoutnumber x 8)
2x (Hormagaunts x16)
3x Zoanthropes (synapse, warp blast)
1x Sniperfex (enhanced Senses, Venom Cannon, Barbed Strangler)
1x Hopped up crazy Carny - Angelfex (Scything talonsx2, Adrenal Glands, Spine Banks, Mace Tail, Reinforced Chitin, Extended Carapace, Bonded Exoskeleton, Tusked)

This list requires special attention to win games, as the objective holding units are so small.
When I win objective games it's usually through holding one objective and contesting the others with lictors, carnies or flyrant.

I suddenly have an uncontrollable urge to paint all the powerfists on my Nurgle squads Brown.
