what should i get next

[pittmanar]

I am new to tyranids and have only basic troops. I will be play mostly against space marines, chaos demons, and sisters of battle. the SOB is mostly tanks and i do not have anything to take this on but should consider something that can be used against different types of armies. I want to get another unit but i am not sure which way to go next. Any advice would be appreciated. I have the following:

1 flyrant
2 carnifexes
15 warriors
15 gene
40 term
30 horm
5 ripper swarms

One more flyrant. Then a crone and a Living Artillery Node (= buy 3 biovores and an Exocrine)

Always good to have at least Zoan and Venom as well.

Flyrants are good against anything and against SoB flyers are gold.

[pittmanar]

what about a harpy i think they could function as good anti-tank or anti-infantry based on loadout and can work with the flyrant. just running through ideas

I think the crone is way better and you have a good unit against Stormravens and other flyers.

Anyway, magnetize the heads and weapon so you can switch betmween the two (and wings for transport).

Well Harridan and Hierophant are down to 80$ in China..

Our flying monsterous creatures are currently our best units. So first, definitely 1 more Flying Hive Tyrant with Devourers. Then second, two Crones. After that tailor to taste and local meta - consider Tervigons (durable objective holders), Biovores (large blast, long range) Exocrines (AP2), more Termagants (cheap objective holders, bubble wrap, tarpit units). HAVE FUN !!!

You need to get yourself some venomthropes. Providing 2+ and 3+ cover saves to your nids its one of the must have units in the codex now.
