Did I mention that his Long Fangs cost a fraction of your warriors?

If I opened up turn 1 of any game, by thinning the number of troop models my opponent has on the board by 28%, I'd be elated. That's just his heavy support!

There's a reason people avoid warriors. T4 models, with multiple wounds and a save 3+ or worse, might as well have 1 wound.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279003.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279003.page GMT 2K 'Nid Warrior List
Cottonjaw wrote:The real problem is that the bulk of your army is tied into just 20 T4 models with weak saves and no eternal warrior. Even with venomthrope cover saves, a space wolf list with 3 squads of missilefangs (pretty damn popular) is going to kill 5.556 (avg) Warriors on turn 1. That's 27.8% of your troops.

But this is a warrior list, so there's nothing much i can do there, this is for semi competitive games, and i can always put one wound at a time on the prime to absorb some firepower so a whole guy doesn't die, and also by the way, what is he going to do about my trygon and hive guard coming at him?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279017.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279017.page GMT 2K 'Nid Warrior List DoM rapes Long Wangs, hate that guy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279040.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279040.page GMT 2K 'Nid Warrior List http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279487.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4279487.page GMT 2K 'Nid Warrior List However, as stated before, Space Wolves will probably ruin your day. As will, I'd imagine, Mech Guard, and GK.

I'd probably downgrade those Trygons from Primes to just regular Trygons and get rid of the Venomthropes (I love the model, and tried to find a way to use them well, but they're a pretty poor elite choice, in comparison with Zoans, Ymgarls, Doom of Malan'Tai and of course, Hive Guard)

If you drop the Venoms and have 3 units of 2 Hive Guard for your Elite slot and downgrade those trygons, you can afford a 3rd Trygon. With 3 of those charging at your enemy, his STR 8+ shots might find that they have other priorities to deal with.

Good luck, however you run it anyway. Let us know how they do.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4280511.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4280511.page GMT 2K 'Nid Warrior List SW, DE and Guard front, As an experienced GK Player, I hate to see Warrior units, GK's (Bar the autocannon spam) simply do not have enough S8 firepower to deal with them, yes they have force weapons but getting them off on 3d6 is incredibly hard work and those Lash whips will render Halberds useless. I agree though a simple Brotherhood Banner would ruin my day, but again those are on termie units only.

Thanks for the advice.

What about Zoanthropes, would they be good to help me pop a LR or something, I will update my list tomorrow ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4280561.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/449520/4280561.page GMT
