We are on month two of an escalation league (750 pts.) and I'm trying to come up with a final list. At this points level there are a couple of adjustments to consider:

1) No flyers (until 1250 pts)
2) FOC requirements dictate 1 HQ and 1 troops choice are mandatory.
3) The table is 4 x 4 (6 x 4 at 1000 pts.)

I am considering a couple lists. We have around 16 players participating, so I need an all comers list, but I'm most worried about our two tau players. I know one will be fielding a riptide and that is giving me fits.

Here are the two lists I'm considering:

List 1:

HQ: Tervigon 185 pts
Toxin Sacs + extra power

HQ: Tervigon 175 pts
+ extra power

Troops: Tervigon 175 pts
+ extra power

Troops: 10 Termagant Brood, 50 pts

Elite: 7 Ymgarl Genestealer Brood, 161 pts

The idea is obviously to saturate the board in disposable gants and overwhelm to opponents.

List 2:

HQ: 1 Hive Tyrant, 225 pts
TL Devourer w/Brainleech Worms x2
Old Adversary

: 1 Tyrant Guard, 60 pts

HQ: T1 Tyranid Prime, 105 pts
Lash Whip & Bonesword
Regeneration

Troops: 16 Termagant Brood, 80 pts

Troops: 16 Termagant Brood, 80 pts

Troops: 10 Termagant Brood, 50 pts

Elite: 3 Hive Guard Brood, 150 pts

Total: 750

Mini-deathstar. Keep everything in the preferred enemy bubble.

List 3:

HQ: 1 Tervigon, 185 pts
Toxin Sacs + Extra power

HQ: 1 Tervigon, 175 pts
+ Extra power

Troops: 10 Termagant Brood, 50 pts

Heavy Support: 1 Mawloc, 170 pts

Heavy Support: 1 Mawloc, 170 pts

Total Cost: 750

4 T6, 6W monsterous creatures. 2 Mawlocs can reach out and touch some gun lines.

Please leave your preference and justification. Also, If you have a good idea for a list, please feel free.

Thanks!

I really don't see the value of a foot tyrant, with no AS, nor guard. Twin devs are great on winged tyrants, but on a walking tyrant? In my op I mentioned that I expect gun-lines and am particularly worried about tau (mobile, shooty). I have to disagree, I don't think a foot tyrant is a good choice. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567011/6320357.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567011/6320357.page GMT Three 750 Tyranid lists for escalation league Hq instead and spawn even more, might be pritty boring to play but strong.

Or take a prime and 2 Biovores/Hiveguard.

Can't run flyers until 1250 as per league restriction.


Give that buddy a 2+ then and run at the enemy full force...I'd even drop the guns on him and just go full murderface on those gunlines.

And it's only a 4x4?

If this guy gets the fleet biomancy power he would own the board.
