Will this work and or be fun. I know I have little anti-flyer and range anti armor. But on paper it seems to be good at objectives.

1000 points as follows to start.
HQ:
Tervigon : crushing claws, toxin sacs, implant, catalyst = 225

TROOPS
10x Termagants = 50
10x Termagants = 50
Tervigon : scything, toxin sacs, implant, catalyst = 205
Tervigon : scything, toxin sacs, implant, catalyst = 205

HEAVY:
Tyranofex : stinger salvo and fleshborer hive = 260

As points go up I would add Hive guard next 4-6of them with the impaler cannons. I just really want to paint and use a tyrnofex with a fleshborer hive,]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631128.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631128.page GMT Might Start Tynranids 1000 points HQ Tervigon out and swap it for a Flyrant with TL Devourers, for anti-flyer, considering the new flyer meta ;3]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631141.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631141.page GMT Might Start Tynranids 1000 points

I can't believe how hind-sighted this post is. Not only are flyers easy as hell to deal with (re:ignore them), but all you did was jump straight to what's trendy and "SUPER MEGA PRO META" for Tyranids. I hate people like you.

Anyways,your list seems to be very horde-centric, so why not push the theme a bit harder. Venomthropes contribute quite a bit to survivability for the Gaunts as well as are super cheap. Gargoyles get in an opponent's face real quick and are awesome for creating an obscuring screen for the rest of your dudes. I'd strongly recommend against the Tyrannofex, only because you're paying Land Raider cost for a BS3 S10 AP4 gun. Not only does that only hit 50% of the time, but even Jimmy the Ultramarine gets an armour save. Consider taking a blob of Ymgarls to make a mess of things in your opponent's deployment, or even Zoanthropes to have some REALLY strong AT as well as additional Synapse. A small squad of Warriors with Deathspitters is a pretty good direction, too.

You've got the foundation for a very strong "I just keep going forward until I hit combat" army, so compliment it by making it harder for opponents to stop the Tervigons and Gaunts dead in their tracks.

Good luck!

Also, I'm an idiot. I thought you were taking the Impaler Cannon.

Still, Assault 20 isn't as good as it seems when an entire quarter of your list is that one crutch.

Also also (clearly I forgot to even READ your post), if you're dead set on using a model because you like it, just use it. You'll make it work ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631213.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631213.page GMT Re:Might Start Tynranids 1000 points http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631244.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631244.page GMT Might Start Tynranids 1000 points

I'm only trying to factor in things that might be important.. If you think about it, it's a horde-centric army, so if they go up against a Valkyrie-heavy list (large blasts ignoring armour saves) then you really are done for because you CAN'T DEAL WITH THEM. Also, Hive Tyrants aren't a bad choice for a HQ anyway, and I've seen TL Devourers wreck Leman Russes..]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/527806/5631269.page GMT
