500 pt list - How would you play it?

[Sanguineus]

Tyranid Prime
~Deathspitter, LW+BS, Regen

Tyranid Warriors x3
~Deathspitter
~Pair Boneswords

Termagant Brood x14

Termagant Brood x10
~Devourers


Hormagaunt Brood x14

I basically have the Battleforce, box of warriors, and a box of 8 termies, 8 hormies. So Full force: 5 warriors and prime, 24 Hormagaunts, 24 Termagants, 8 Stealers.

I have played 2 games of 40k both against myself (Dark Angels from newbie box) just to learn the rules. I'm hoping to start busting my nids out for some small games until I get these 500 points painted and can expand to some big beasts.

So if the list is what I have put together above how would you play it? My thoughts when I put it together was to move up as quickly as possible while still shooting and have the 14 regular termies cover the hormagaunts. Other than that, pew pew then Boneswords.

Edit: yes also 3-4 ripper swarms

Don't forget the Rippers that come with the Battleforce and on all the sprues! They can be pretty awesome!

Ahh yes - I can't forget about the ripper swarms. I believe I have 4 of them if people would suggest adding those to the list somewhere. I seem to remember hearing/thinking they weren't worth it.

Anyone have any suggestions on the above list and how to play it? We are doing a 500 point newbie day coming up just to practice and get some games in.

Do I screen the warriors and prime? Do I screen the devourer gants?

Regular Termagants-closest to enemy
Devilgants-right behind termagants
Then Warriors and Prime.
