6th Edition frenzy, 2 1750pt lists

[DarkGuard]

That's a fantastic post hyv3mynd, not much I can say extra to that.

fragile, I didn't mean to insult it, if it works for you then great. But at the moment I'd rather the extra Hive Guard etc, and not pin that strategy around a random power. So bit of personal preference there.

NIB. Iron Arm is on the Swarmlord. Making him d3 Tougher, T7-9. You now have a unit with T7-9 (swarmlord), T6, and T5. By rule you use majority or lacking a majority the highest.. (7-9). This unit casting IA every turn will at least be T7 or better.

Good point, hadn't thought about that.

DG, no insult was taken . Just pointing out that a Prime has versatility over a Guard who really just eats wounds for the SL and dies. If you get that power on SL you can still use that same trick when your first Guard dies. IA is just simply a neat way to make your SL survive better. There was nothing like the look on my opponents face when he hit with a Lascannon and 3 missiles and didnt do 1 wound on them (albeit bad rolling too)

That does sound like a laugh, not for your opponent though! I'll keep it in mind, sounds nasty, but for now I'll stick with the Tyrant Guard and extra Hive Guard
