genesteallers will infaltrait to tie up his units allowing the tervigon to make some babies. the trygons and doom will deep strike were need be. tell me what you think and how I can improve.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4373213.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4373213.page GMT 1500pt tyranid army TS especially vs MEQ.

I would also consider making one of your trygons a prime to offer some synaps and SitW. Maybe only run two trygons (one prime) with AG. Bump up your stealers to 7 or 8.

Hive guard are great, doom is fun and tervigon is great. Although consider giving him AG too in order to help the spawn.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4373745.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4373745.page GMT 1500pt tyranid army
I really like the idea of running 3 Trygons with regen at this points value, mostly because I think it'd be so unexpected and intimidating, but I'd probably end up dropping one of them and using it's points to put a unit of Termagants and a Tervigon as troops for some reliable objective scoring. That's really up to you though, as I'd like to see how 3 Trygons perform at 1500 points.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4375059.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4375059.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army TS against MEQ for the 4+ to wound, even though S 4 to T 4 I need 4+ to wound anyway. so if there was a diffrent reason i'd love to here it, oh maybe you ment ST not TS for Sycthing talons which would be a good idea. maybe I will take only 2*genestealers*7 with scything talons and keep the trygons and there regen. this is like a test run for regen I have never used it before so it should be interesting. thanks for the help keep it coming.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4375340.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4375340.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army
Scything talons allows you to reroll 1s on the hit roll, but toxin sacs gives you more bang for your buck.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4375969.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4375969.page GMT 1500pt tyranid army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4377355.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4377355.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army

I left the sycthing talons for the extra attack, added 3 more steallers per unit bringing them up to 8. I took out a trygon and there regen to put in a prime. what do you think are the scything talons worth the extra 16 pts per unit or would a extra stealer be better?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378173.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378173.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378480.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378480.page GMT 1500pt tyranid army ST.

Has everything you need to hold objectives (3 Troops and a tervi that makes more troops) and be killy (Genestealers kill... its what they do. lol and Hive Guard, Trigons, Doom) so I dont see why you can't pull some good games out of this list.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378593.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378593.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army

wouldn't the ST give each stealer an extra attack since it would be a secound CCW or do the RC count as 2 CCW granting them an extra attack anyway. If the ladder than I agree one more stealer is better then ST. I had ST on them for the extra attacks not the rerolls that was just iceing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378805.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4378805.page GMT 1500pt tyranid army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4387938.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4387938.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army

Page 33 of your codex - Tyranids never gain an extra attack for multiple CCW.
The Scything Talon reroll isn't usually worth it on Stealers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4387947.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/454146/4387947.page GMT Re:1500pt tyranid army

If I had set up differently I might have won but for the most part it was all dice rolls after he took out my stealers, and he had a lot of dice rolls. the trygons took forever to kill but there were just too much attacking them at once. the doom held his own till he rolled his 8 leadership 3 turns in a row. the steallers did miricals like sweeping a group of beastmasters and putting so much fear in him he decided to never even assult them after turn 2 ever agian. the void bomber took care of the last of the geanstealers.
