5 tyranid warriors, deathspitters, barbed strangler.
6 tyranid warriors, lash whip and boneswords.

Tervigon

25 hormogaunts

Carnifex, t. devourer

The idea is to have the hormogaunts as a meatshield, with the venomthrope just behind for a 5 up cover save for more survivability then the army will slowly advance as a small fire base splitting up when needed in certain areas, is it worth swapping the tervigons psychic power for prescience on the biomancy table, any advice on this list would be really appreciated as i am quite new to 40k]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5100764.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5100764.page GMT warrior list 1500 pts http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5100774.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5100774.page GMT Re:warrior list 1500 pts

A Warrior list has some cool potential. However they have two downfalls that I see. First, they are susceptible to instant death from a variety of weaponry. Can't do much about that - it's an inherent flaw. Second, they can be outranged rather easily as they possess (more or less) the same weapon as your Termagaunts. Problem two does have a solution though, Mycetic Spores! The only way Warriors will realistically work in a semi-competitive game is by vast mobility of the drop pods.

So my suggestion would be this; drop the gaunt squad to 10 with Fleshborers, use them and the Tervigon for scoring on your side and possibly midfield. Shrikes are a solid choice, if you could have another squad of them it'd be preferable. Drop the Hormagaunts entirely they help no one. Use newly acquired points to put all Warriors and hopefully the Carnifex into Mycetic Spores. This'll at least put a huge wound pool and cover on your opponents side of the board and give your Warriors an opportunity to lay waste to what they land next to. I approve of having a melee group of them.

Good luck.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5101475.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5101475.page GMT Re:warrior list 1500 pts

Only issue with podding them is that you then waste the Primes as you still can't put Primes in a spore with Warriors.

Q: If a Tyranid unit takes a Mycetic Spore, can an Independent
Character join the brood before deployment (and hence deep strike in
with the brood)? (p54)
A: No.

SO Pod the Fex and the Bonesword to get them down field fast. Use the Primes as missile/Las shields for the rest of the brood. Take codex powers so you are sure to get Catalyst for the FNP.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5102175.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5102175.page GMT warrior list 1500 pts
if your going or some footsloggin warriors make them real shooty with deathspitters and venom cannons then back them up with a podding doom or 2-3 zoanthroapes to draw the fire of the tanks and use some venomthroapes to at least give your warriors a save if they get battle cannoned]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5102758.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/495947/5102758.page GMT
