http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net DE with my Nids, His list is going to be

3 Haemonculus with Hex rifles, venom blades and stinger pistols
4 groups of 5 warriors, 4 with splinter Rifles, 1 with blaster, all on venoms with 2 splinter Cannons
3 groups of 4 Trueborn with 4 blasters in venoms with cannons, led by the 3 Haemonculus so they get FNP
3 groups of 5 Scourges, 3 with shard Carbines, 2 with Blasters
3 ravagers

He will deploy everything and he never moves more then 6 inches (wants to make sure his guys on transports can shoot) That's how he always plays anyways

I was thinking of a null deployment list, something like:
4 groups of Devilgaunts in pods
2 groups of 3 hive guard, walking on
1 DoM in pod ( our local game house rule says doom affects troops in open top vehicles)
Was also thinking of a flyrant with hive commander DS'ing in. I still have a lot of points to play with.
I could use any advice on this one. His list looks really brutal on paper and I need to come up with a good counter.

Thanks

You're fortunate he isn't playing aggressive (as he should be moving forward to get all his Blasters / Splinter Rifles into range). Putting a Haemonculus with each Trueborn unit is a complete waste. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/386344/3131847.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/386344/3131847.page GMT
It's worth noting that Venom and heavy venom cannons are actually quite useful. Lots of Open top vehicles so you're not going to have the minus modifier.

I don't think starting in reserves is the best bet as you run a very real risk of being taken apart as your forces arrive in dribs and drabs.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/386344/3131850.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/386344/3131850.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/386344/3131940.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/386344/3131940.page GMT
