1K Nids for 3 Round Tournament

[almostmercury]

So, I've got a 1k LGS event in February and I started with this:

Flyrant (MRC, 2x devs, AG, Wings, -1 to hit, WL)
Neurothrope

Rippers x3
Termagants x 18
Genestealers x20 (5 Acid Maws)

3 Hive Guard

Carnifex x2 (2x devs, HVC, spores, ES)


The HVC is a massive let down, and I don't really need more Devs. So I dropped went to:


Flyrant (MRC, 2x devs, AG, Wings, -1 to hit, WL)
Neurothrope
OOE

Rippers x3
Termagaunts x16
Genestealers x17 (4 Maws)

Hive Guard x5


Now, I posted in the tactics thread that I don't know if OOE is good or cute, but so far it has been excellent. OOE never feels like it's doing much for turn 1 or 2, but then it deletes anything that isn't a blob, but even then it's more of a waste of talents as opposed to ineffective.

I can't believe I didn't ever delete plague marines with Hive Guard before last night. I always felt like I was struggling to kill T8 things (especially with FnPs)... but then they seriously clean up elite models.

I was playing against Death Guard using:

Plaguecaster
Lord (Daemon Prince in 2nd game)

3 Plague Marine units
Grenade Putrfier dude.
2x Plague Crawler

The first game also had a blight crawler, but that was swapped out pretty fast.

I would drop OOE and the Neurothrope and pick a Broodlord, then Take 6 Hiveguard and some more stealers. And the Hive Tyrant needs TS!

TS is nice, hardly necessary.

How many stealers are you talking about?
