They noticeably left out Elites of any kinda. I was thinking of getting Zoanthropes for the extra Synapse. What do you all recommend?

Thanks

I know Venomthropes have Shrouded, but do they give other units nearby Shrouded as well?

The only problem with the venomthrope I see in this case is that your hormagaunts and gargoyles will potentially race outside its area of effect.

Also, if you do start leaning towards a venomthrope, strongly consider a malanthrope. Most weapons won't insta-gib a malanthrope, plus the malanthrope provides that Synapse you were looking for.

Double Ninja'd: Yes; venomthropes/malanthropes handing out synapse to other units is the whole point of the bugger. Otherwise, they'd just be overcosted poisonous guys. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140213.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140213.page GMT Which Tyranid Elites should I get?

Yup.

I'd scratch build a Malanthrope if anything, FW one is a little pricy. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140218.page GMT Re:Which Tyranid Elites should I get? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140261.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140261.page GMT Which Tyranid Elites should I get? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140344.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/664652/8140344.page GMT
