A warrior main army list?

[ravengoescaw]

Note: I am not afraid to model. Some one in the tervigon-less tread mentioned parasite. I am thinking of takeing a warrior and makeing one for this army.

Parasite... So many points... So little reward... It hurts *holds chest*

Only iron arm grants EW and iron arm only affects the psyker.

Endurance is FnP, IWND and relentless.

PoM does have some value now, giving 2+ LOS to shrikes, for spreading S<8 around.

[coredump]

Still not worth it. It costs the same as 3-4 Shrikes, and can't absorb S8 like the Prime can.

I can't see 4 shrike+PoM being more resilient than 7 shrikes

160 points for a model that gets IDd by Kraks, PFs, etc? I'll pass. Other T4 models at this price tend to have invulnerable saves or something.

[Jabberwocky]

He can absorb bolter/plasma overwatch though and share wounds around the unit, letting you take 5 or so more wounds before losing a model.

I wouldn't run him because of the cost I'm just saying he has more value in the unit than he did in 5e.

Why don't you try my list and replace a Tervigon with some more Warriors? I do not know how but I would try to put in a unit of Gargoyles with AGs as well.

What you should do in every case: change the weapons of your miniatures to useful combinations (mostly TL Devourers).

[ravengoescaw]

I can try that ecept for the death spitters. I only have two deathspitter bits. So I think I will run them with devourers.

[depletor [H5ed]]

This is a bad idea ... The S5 allows to damage most vehicles at least from the side. I think they are essential. I am trying to think of a good way to build some from bits that are easily available.

[wisdomseyes1]

It's funny because the parasite is cost based on ripper swarms being 10 points...and probably "wings are 60 points"

...

Bet the author thought it was fairly priced...

[rpricew]

Oh if the Parasite was only T5... then he would be almost awesome!

[undeadfilth]

Convert some shrikes, they make my nipples hard:/

Parasite's more of a Gargoyle leader than anything, to keep them all synapsed up. He does nothing for warriors or their winged bretheren.

Except abusing wound allocation through 2+ LOS, like I just said

That and crunching walkers before they mince shrikes. Still not worth the cost though. Even compared to gargs, you could just have another brood of 20 and let a unit die horribly and still be better off in most cases.
