I still have 100 points to spend, obviously. I'm tempted to give my Flyrants and Tyrannofex all Regeneration and call it a day. Vehicles are rare in my group, aside from the innumerable drop pods, so I'm shying away from EGrubs for the time being. Regen has never really done much, other than a random wound here and there but it's tempting nevertheless. Another idea is to drop a Biovore and grab a second Dakkafex with the remaining points.

The Biovores would hang out with the Zoan to shell infantry and mobs and harass elsewhere. I want try keeping my Melyrant with the Venom and Termagants until Melvin can get into a good Assault, while the Dakkaflyrant does his thing where needed. The Warriors would provide Synapse support for the Carnifex(es) and Tyrannofex, and they provide some LOS cover.

Any thoughts? Additional model wise, I have three total Carnifexes, a Mawloc/Trygon, a Hive Crone, Genestealers/Broodlord, and a few more Warriors and Venomthropes.

If you don't fancy e grubs, Shreddershard is great for clearing models out of terrain and scaring off assaults.

Also 5 points to make the Flyrant ST into Rending claws will mean you can penetrate AV12 drop pods all the time.

Cool list I like the mele flyrant! Used mine once only and is really fun he kicks ass!
I would be tempted to go for another carnifex with twin linked devourers, but for fun or gamble try mawloc with it's terror from deep. I do find mawloc can be 100% brilliant or really useless lol!
Regeneration is expensive for just one chance at one wound coming back. On your warlord it might be worth it. I put it on my mele flyrant once but is a well expensive model then!! Got two wounds back in a game after killing 20 marines so....

Mawlocs are really nice against invisible units. Which sadly I've been seeing more and more lately. I'm leaning towards running two of them now in my lists as a response to angry invisible centurions. They might gel nice with your CC Flyrant.

[jimmyp]

how do they get invisible centurions? sounds mad. two mawlocs would be well fun to use!

[Osedaxx]

Oh it is madness. Just a lucky Telepathy SM Libby upgraded for the extra ML or hell, Tigarius for extra hurt. I know the flavour of the month is to put them in SW drop pods, but invis are equally as popular in my area.

The great thing about the Mawloc is that it doesn't roll to hit, so invis is useless against it. Dead Centurions and such. Two Mawlocs is full of lols.

[jimmyp]

cool i will have to look out for that! yeah i love my mawloc my oppenents hate it alot if it hits, once took out all of my friends terminators lol

[Yautja]

100p free I'd spend on...
Grubs on x2 HT & Tfex = 30p
AG on Fex = 15p
BS on a Warrior = 10p
Regeneration on Warlord = 30p
More Guants with the rest?

[blucord]

Cool list, seems like it could be really fun to play...maybe keep both biovores...you may need them

[rroach]

This would be my first time rolling out the Bivores. Half of my local group plays a variant of Space Marines, so I'll have a lot of fun blasting at them from across the board. Hah.
