Hey everyone, I got some more information on the upcoming tournament at my LGS. They are doing no mercy at 1500 so I am updating my list and looking for feedback. I know there will be a SM heavy weapon spam, grey knights, death guard with Morty, and some bloodAngel's, plus anyone else who decides to show up. Let me know how I can improve
++ Battalion Detachment +5CP (Tyranids) [87 PL, 1500pts] ++
+ HQ +
Broodlord [8 PL, 115pts]: Power: The Horror
The Swarmlord [15 PL, 250pts]: Power: Catalyst, Power: Onslaught
+ Troops +
Genestealers [16 PL, 240pts]: 5x Acid Maw, 20x Scything Talons . 20x Genestealer: 20x Rending Claws
Genestealers [16 PL, 240pts]: 5x Acid Maw, 20x Scything Talons . 20x Genestealer: 20x Rending Claws
Termagants [9 PL, 224pts] . 26x Termagant (Devourer): 26x Devourer . 4x Termagant (Fleshborer)
+ Elites +
Hive Guard [13 PL, 240pts] . Hive Guard: Impaler Cannon . Hive Guard: Impaler Cannon . Hive Guard: Impaler Cannon . Hive Guard: Impaler Cannon . Hive Guard: Impaler Cannon
+ Heavy Support +
Trygon Prime [10 PL, 191pts]: 3. Tenacious Survivor, 3x Massive Scything Talons, Adrenal Glands, Biostatic Rattle, Chameleonic Mutation, Toxin Sacs, Warlord
++ Total: [87 PL, 1500pts] ++
The hive fleet would be kraken to move the stealers very quickly. The gaunts would drop down with the trygon. I think I may need some more anti tank though. I tried for bigger squads so I won't have so many available points. Thanks for reading!

Looks good but why not to make one single unit of hive guard? To max up singleminded anhilation? That's what I updated it to be after trying a full unit. I dig it, thanks

Hive Guard need Synapse, maybe tyranid Prime? Also a screen of termagants would be useful for them. Trygon + Warriors are not worth their points. You could take a flyrant instead. The trygon is there to deliver a pack of genestealers. The warriors are to babysit the hive guard.

List looks good. One change comes in mind though. Give onslaught and catalyst to swarmlord. Always, always onslaught and catalyst to swarmy. Onslaught because you most definetly need to advance at some piint and your opponent wants him dead so catalyst most definetly. I'll try it! So he just keeps buffing himself?

I have most of the tyranid range except for drone and harpies. Thanks for reading! Currently I am very melee heavy and I'm debating adding more gun bugs or maybe a trygon to help deliver the little guys.

Hey everyone, I'm back after a long time away from the game. Looking for help expanding from 1500 to a 2K list, my local game store runs that for tournaments. This is what i have so far
--Kronos Battalion-- Flyrant- 213 (2 Dev, MRC, AG+TS) 1 Neurothrope- 70 6 Hive guard- 288 (Impaler cannons) 3 Biovores- 150 3X3 rippers- 99
--(Leviathan or Kraken)? Battalion-- Flyrant- 213 (2 Dev, MRC, AG+TS) Flyrant- 213 (2 Dev, MRC, AG+TS) 1 Neurothrope- 70 3X10 Gaunts-120
--Total 1436--
As its written the Neurothropes babysit the smaller bugs for their respective hive fleets, Flyrants push forward and harass. If the second battalion goes Kraken I'll give a flyrant the Chameleonic skin, if i go leviathan i'll put the Maw claws on one. I feel like the list needs a bit more punch but I'm not 100% sure how to apply the pressure. I considered doing a trygon bomb with some devil gaunts, or running extra dakka fex. I am also up to switching a Neuro for a malanthrope, but not sure which one lol. Thanks for reading!

We did 20K Xenos Vs 20K Space marines. We wanted to literally play warhammer 40k

As someone who writes lists before even finding opponents the thing I don't like is:
ME: "Want to play a game?" THEM: "Depends, what army are you running?" ME: "Tyranids why?" THEM: "Okay, I'm going to add tons of flamers and missiles, let me write a list then we'll play."
At that point I'm pretty much like forget it. My conversations now go as follows:
ME: "Want to play a game?" THEM: "Depends, what army are you running?" ME: "Okay never mind. Have a good one."

Now he's considering a fortress of redemption. Thoughts? I am considering cutting grubs from one flyrant and adding a malanthrope. Thoughts?
