I tend to run lash whip/bonesword, and 1 pair of brainleech devourers. Lash whip is fantastic for giving you the first hits, and S6 TL is great.

I run a deathstar build, so 3 tyrant guard, and normally an attached prime. (in 2000 pts games)


Also instead of scything talons, consider old adversary (which I also run on him) which can be a superb force multiplier.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4356611.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4356611.page GMT Walking Hive Tyrant builds http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4356693.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4356693.page GMT Re:Walking Hive Tyrant builds ST actually come in handy or would you rather just be taking a HVC or another set of BL worms?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359105.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359105.page GMT Re:Walking Hive Tyrant builds

ST gives rerolls against vehicles, OA doesn't.

I prefer OA because ST seems like a waste sometimes...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359201.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359201.page GMT Re:Walking Hive Tyrant builds
For my Tyrant I typically use Lash whip/bonesword and brainleech devourers, armoured shell, regeneration, adrenal glands for just a little bit more anti-vehicle punch, old adversary, and three bonesword tyrant guards. I do however, wish I could get invulnerable saves for my Tyrant and Guard and a 2+ save for the Guard, even if I had to pay points for it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359550.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359550.page GMT Walking Hive Tyrant builds TL-Devourers.

Ideally you slap him with at least 1 Hive Guard so soak up missles and get the unit cover. You can also take one(or both) of Armoured Shell/Regeration, but they're a bit pricey.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359587.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4359587.page GMT Re:Walking Hive Tyrant builds

They don't really, but you're also not spending any more points on your Tyrant by keeping them. I don't tend to take guns on the Tyrant since I'll probably be casting Paroxysm or Leech Essence anyway.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4360835.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/453172/4360835.page GMT Re:Walking Hive Tyrant builds

Paraox and leech.
2x TG

Tervi - cat

Thats what i run, but it becomes quite a point sink to keep him alive. i think 3 guards to too much, even AS can be overkill with 2 gaurds. its only really for the most deadly weapons, and i only really use him as support, never my main force, just shooting from the back and soaking wounds.
Personally though i drop him altogether, get a prime, or use that tervi for HQ, and invest in multiple trygons. i love em.
