I am going to an apoc game first weekend of November. It will be something like 25-30k on every side. Imperials vs Xenos. For game purposes the Tyranid will be on the side of the Xenos, BUT it will be treated as desperate ally. The tyranid force will also deploy completely seperate from the Xenos forces, and should the Imperials get tabled the Tyranid forces will have to keep fighting against the Xenos instead.
The game plan is that there is a significant necron artefact in the middle of the table (12' x 6'). Imperials have 5 technicians/characters that must manage to enter the "underground complex" where the artefact is. Each technician that reaches the artefact gains 15 VP for the imperials. Each one the Xenos destroy gains 15 VP's for the Xenos. Also VP's are gained if you lock (or not) the technicians in hth by the end of the game. Plus VP's for warlord kills, Gargantuan/super heavy destroys etc etc etc. If the Imperials win, all their side wins. All the xenos have bonus secret agenta onjectives to determine which xenos among them wins. All reserves come in without a dice on turn 1.
Because the point is to gather as many points as able, ALL my units will have every upgrade (adrenal, toxin, regen, acid blood, flesh hooks, tail attacks, pincers, bio plasmas, thorax weapons, you name it - hive guard with adrenal yay!) I will also make use of many normal formations:
1. Manufactorum genestealers (5x5)
2. Living Artillery (3 x warr, 1 exo, 1x3 biovores)
3. Endless swarm (3x25 horma, 3x 30 terma (14 devourers), 3 warriors)
4. Tyrant node (HT, miasma cannon, stranglethorn, norn crown, 3 doges have lw+BS and a venomthrope)
5. Subterranean Swarm (Trygon Prime, trygon, mawloc, 3 units of 3 raveners with deathspitters and rending)
6. Synaptic Swarm (Tyranid Prime,(maw claws, lw+bs), 3 warriors deathspitters, 3 warriors deathspitters, 5 warriors(3 boneswords, 2 rending, second scything))
Additional Units:
Hierophant Bio titan
ALL the upgrades
Flyrant, 2 x Devourers
Flyrant, 2 x Devourers
Flyrant, Reaper, Ymgarl factor
The Swarmlord
Tervigon, crushing claws, cluster spines
6 x Ripper swarms, deep strike, spine fists
6 x Ripper swarms, deep strike, spine fists
30 x Gargoyles
2 x Carnifex, devourers
2 x Carnifex, Crushing claws
Tyrranofex, Acid spray
I think that's all. Amounts to almost 11k points. 220 gribbles, 15 monstrous creatures plus the titan. I think it's gonna be fun.
