Neo Tervi

[Kwodd]

Tervigons took a hit from the bat but it looks like they might hold up. What does The Hive think?

[nameless]

Still pretty good.

Assuming AG and TS hit UNITS within 6" as before, that'll be the build. You can get those claws off now.

[mobugs]

I haven't seen it myself in the photo's but someone in the rumors thread mentioned they lost the AG/TS extending along with the ability to move once spawned. They got hit by the bat HARD

The new tervigon is 35 points more, need 30 termagant to be a troop, limited to only one psychic power, and no biomancy (and only 1/6 chance of getting FNP), no more giving buff to spawned termagants, wich cannot charge anymore the turn they are pooped, but still die to the explosion of mama.

Yeah, a pretty hard nerf....the biggest nerf of the codex if you ask me.

Yep, that is huge. Wow. I'm not sure what to do with troops anymore.

That being the case they're pretty close to what they should be. Which would be fine if everything else was also.

No. Before the Terv was strong, but no where near OP.

Now it *may* be worth taking.... But only barely.

Will run 2, hopefully both HQ (if we can ally with ourselves, if not, I'll pay the gant tax on one). Slap on the infinite spawn upgrade, and sit them backfield all game. Much different then my current list of moving them up all with Catalyst and having 2 Trygons, A DoM in a pod, and Zoans in a pod making target priority a huge pain for my opponent.

Now I think they'll just be there to make objective holders, which is a real shame. Tervigons were my favorite part, and focus, of my 5th ed codex...plus I spent 130 hours in total painting up 3 of them (not including snipping, glueing, cleaning, and priming them )


Oh well, adapt and change. More points to put in Carnifexes, which I sorely missed current / soon to be last codex.

jaysic: The Infinite Spawn upgrade was a lie.

[bodiless]

Has anyone actually confirmed the nerfs to the spawn rules? No passing along upgrades and no assault on the turn spawned? It seems awfully late in the day for people to be noticing such a big hit - has anyone seen a scan of their page?

[gigasnail]

at first, it looked pretty decent still. it got price bumped, but CC are trash so wouldn't be taking them anyway so that'd be only a 10ish point net price increase for the way i ran them.

then we lost biomancy, lost multiple powers, and lost the buff bubble.

i won't say they're paperweight status, but the one i have unassembled will likely stay that way.
