				<title>New Tyranids, 1500 points</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ With the new codex out, now's the time to have a look at my long neglected Tyranids. While i don't like many of the changes i've seen, i've still managed to get together a list that i somewhat like and will only need to buy a couple of extra models for. I don't usually face flyers in my meta, so i made this list with that in mind. <br /> <br /> <u><b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b></u><br /> <br /> <b>Hive Tyrant - 235 points</b><br /> x2 Scything talons, toxin sacs, regen, shreddershard neetles, indescribable horror, prehensile pincer<br /> <br /> <b>Tyrant guard x3 - 159 points</b><br /> Toxin sacs<br /> <br /> <u><b>Troops</b></u><br /> <br /> <b>Termagants x30 - 120 points</b><br /> <br /> <b>Tervigon - 250 points</b><br /> Regen, miasma cannon<br /> <br /> <u><b>Elites </b></u><br /> <br /> <b>Zoanthrope x2 - 100 points</b><br /> <br /> <b>Zoanthrope x2 - 100 points</b><br /> <br /> <b>Venomthrope x3 - 135 points</b><br /> <br /> <u><b>Heavy Support</b></u><br /> <br /> <b>Exocrine - 200 points</b><br /> Regen<br /> <br /> <b>Exocrine - 200 points</b><br /> Regen<br /> <br /> Total points - 1499<br /> <br /> The idea is to use the big unit of gants as a screen for the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(154);'>HT</span>/<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(536);'>TG</span>, giving them, depending on where they're shot from, a cover save. While the the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(154);'>HT</span>/<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(536);'>TG</span>, exocrines and tervigon stay around the venomthropes for shrouded. The venoms themselves will be staying close behind the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(154);'>HT</span>/<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(536);'>TG</span> with an exocrine on each flank and the tervigon at the rear, so any unit shooting at them will have to get through a 3+ cover save (intervening models + shrouded). The zoans not needing shrouded will go where needed, starting out on the outer flanks of the main group. <br /> <br /> Giving the tervigon the miasma cannon for fire support is useful as it gives it a role outside of just spawning more gants. While having four psyker units (with 5 rolls on the power list) will give a good chance of getting the much improved catalyst for feel no pain.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ WOuld not call it a much imporved catalyst as it is now random for what had been a stock power. Potenially decent nidzilla except against Tau/Taudar. The VT's will be almost useless in many cases.<br /> ]]></description>
