Spoiler:

It's fairly simple...but here's what you have. Reliable long ranged TL S9 blasts on the Harpies which are also winged MCs. The 3 squads of 2 Zoans are sure to ruin somebody's day with the 2 available firing modes. And then once vehicles are open...Biovores...S4 AP4 large blast pinning barrages which place spore mines on the board if they happen to miss. Then the list retains solidarity with 2 Tervigons and 60 gants. Tervigons have both Catalyst and Onslaught (lets you run and shoot in the same turn)

I might start building this list for tournaments...tournaments because it's an easy list to play, its faster to play, and it looks all around fairly solid.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3366657.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3366657.page GMT Tyranids...simplifying my tournament play. hvcs.

Despite my concerns, I really want a list like this to do well, and would really like to hear how you get on with it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3368867.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3368867.page GMT Re:Tyranids...simplifying my tournament play. IB - lurk there is a danger of them just sitting in cover until the synapse bubble catches them up. I think you are better off with a gargoyle screen, 2 harpies and a flyrant as the HQ.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3373509.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3373509.page GMT Tyranids...simplifying my tournament play. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3373892.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3373892.page GMT Tyranids...simplifying my tournament play. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3373988.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3373988.page GMT Tyranids...simplifying my tournament play.

If you want units to just tramp along at 6" then take raveners and not harpies. The point of paying the price for wings is there movement speed and ability to outflank.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3376643.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3376643.page GMT Tyranids...simplifying my tournament play.

I don't think you need Onslaught since nobody's in a rush with this list, and I think a flyrant is begging to be included. The flyrant just opens up so many options for you. The harpies provide him cover and can operate on a much larger leash, you gain access to the best psychic power in the game, and you'll never have to worry about deathstar units getting too close to your CC inept firebase with acid blood and the lash whip. He's perfect!

Spoiler:

All I did was remove 2 zoanthropes, 20 termagants, and both Onslaughts to add a flyrant with acid blood and gave scything talons to the now scoring tervigon. Yeah? I like the symmetry of it all]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3471260.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/399561/3471260.page GMT
