Tyranids? Tyranids. wrote:Most people say that lictors arn't worth it. Why?

Probably because they're a 3 wound T4 model that is meant for close combat but can't assault the turn it arrives from reserves.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2918909.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2918909.page GMT Tyranid Army Help For a beginner

They operate independently.

I think you're getting confused with the 4th edition Lictor rules. In the current edition there is nothing that says they are able to operate independantly.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2919959.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2919959.page GMT Tyranid Army Help For a beginner
He can't really be killed and you can use him too get your Carnifexs anyway.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2920052.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2920052.page GMT Re:Tyranid Army Help For a beginner
Flyrat is only BS3, so I would go for the devourers instead.

Elites? Give those zoeys a spore too. I would then go 2*2 hive guard for the other 2 elite slots - you do need some reliable anti-armour. Single lictors at 2,000 points won't get to see the next turn after arriving on the board.

Stealers I would give them toxin sacs. Not sure on the hormogaunts as well - too similar. Prefer a tervigon and termies in this slot.

Trygon should have AG.

If you have the points get a prime and attach him to the hive gaurd.

I added up this list a second time and this time with a calculator. It's 1,915 not counting the brood of 20 hermagaunts or the 2 Lictors. I think I will have to raise the points to 2,500. lol.
I guess this means making a new-ish list. I'll get on that.

I can't speak for Tau, Necrons or Eldar, but I belive just about everything in the Chaos and Wolves codex has more than 3 initiative, so the battering ram ability wont mean much against them, get some extra attacks instead.

Have to echo ruminator when it comes to the stealers and hormagants, toxin sac is great on these. I would consider dropping the termagant pod, since that bomb is most effective with 20 gants.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2941170.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2941170.page GMT Tyranid Army Help For a beginner What about Warriors? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2953941.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/375050/2953941.page GMT
