				<title>[500] - Tyranids - need help</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I want to play nids and want a grocery list to buy so I don't break the bank getting all of the sets and squads to choose from. Can Someone help me set up a small 500pt list that can pack a punch or frustrate my opponent in any which way? This would serve as a casual list to have fun with in small skirmishes. I've been doing some research and this seems to be a good general list:<br /> <br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span> <br /> Flying Hive tyrant (about 160pts)<br /> <br /> Elite <br /> 1xZoanthrope (120)<br /> 2x Hive Guard (96)<br /> <br /> Troops <br /> 30 termagants - 20 Devourers 10 fleshborers (130)<br /> <br /> Also, what would the Hive Fleet attribute be for this kind of play style? Hydra maybe for its stratagem and warlord trait? ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ This is bad. You have 1 legal detachements and the zoanthrope and hive guard will give you -2 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(707);'>CP</span>. Unfinished units are also hard to get.<br /> <br /> For a good allround character I would recomend the flying hive tyrant. <br /> <br /> A neuronthrope as second <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span> (for synapse) or warriors. Some termagaunts as troops. Perhaps a ripper swarm. Should be quite good.<br /> <br /> The flying hive tyrant will be really anoying at 500 points. Take 24 shots and instictiv killer warlord trait. Or 12 shots and rending claws.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Buy 2 Boxes of Zoanthropes, Make 2 Neurothropes and run a Unit of 4 Zoanthropes, then buy 30 termagaunts and run them 20 Devours and 10 fleshborers. You can buy these on ebay and other sites for around $1 per model.   That's 500 points has a bit of a buffer and a D3+D3 Super smite rerolling ones.  <br /> <br /> Don't run a Tervigon in a 500 point list even casual.  It amounts to half of your points and if your opponent runs some heavy weapons you can crush the Tervigon which will cost you <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(24);'>D6</span> termagants and probably no synapse with leadership 5 units.  ]]></description>

You'll be advancing to get to him so you'll be shooting at BS5 for your Termies and BS4 on your Carnifi.

				<description><![CDATA[ I don't think anybody has mentioned deep striking carnifexes? If you are talking about my comment I am talking about the hive tyrant, with wings on the side. If you take insticntiv hunter (I think it is called) as the warlord trait choose one unit and re-roll to hit vs it. 24 shots, re-rolling to hit at BS3+ that drops down should eliminate a unit at 500 point. Now they have less armies to take out 12 wounds, or he starts shooting next turn as well.]]></description>

				<title>[500] - Tyranids - need help</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ In a 500 point list, a Flyrant is probably too expensive given that it has no special protection due to it's number of wounds.<br /> <br /> Personally, I would go with a Neurothrope with either Dominion or Onslaught, 2 squads of 18 Hormogants, 1 squad of 3 Hive Guard with Impaler Cannons and finally a Mawlock.<br /> <br /> The Neurothrope gives you a cheap synapse character that can only be targetted by snipers but can also use it's psychic powers to extend synapse / allow gaunts to advance & charge / Smite.<br /> <br /> The Hormagants are what you have came to expect - a fast moving sea that you want to smash into your opponents lines<br /> <br /> The Hive guard are where your real hitting power exists.  They can stay out of <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(85);'>LOS</span> making them virtually untouchable and between them unleash 6, Strength 8, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(6);'>AP</span>-2 D3 damage shots at a 36" range without the need for <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(85);'>LOS</span>.  In such a small game - that's a game changer.<br /> <br /> Finally the Mawloc.  I like Mawlocs for several reasons.<br /> * They look good!<br /> * They can pop up virtually anywhere (That's a nice cluster of tanks I can tie up in combat)<br /> * Because they can pop up an inch away, your opponent will need to compress his deployment when screening units from assault than they would have against something that must deploy outside of 9".  This makes your opponent less manoeuvrable in Maelstrom and easier to tie up in the assault round later.<br /> * They cannot charge when they arrive, but considering the above point, your opponent will focus a lot of fire on them to stop you tying up their heaviest shooting units (and therefore not shooting your 'gants)<br /> * They have T6, 12 wounds and a 3+ save.  In smaller games such as 500 points - they can probably take the entire round of shooting!<br /> * They cause mortal wounds when they pop up<br /> * They can go back underground and grab late-game objectives<br /> * It has a good anti tank weapon and a large number of anti-infantry attacks (please note however that Mawlocs are more of a tactical choice - they are not as good at killing stuff as they are tying them up in assault)<br /> * They are only 104 points!<br /> ]]></description>
