Best Troop Choice

[hivefleetcthulu]

Hey guys, I've got a Few questions.
1.Why do genestealers suck this edition?
2.If they suck so bad, then would termagant be the alternative for their shooting?
3.Can anyone explain adrenal gland and toxin sac better than the codex?
4.What is the best combo for the hive tyrant?
5.Are carnifex a viable MC this edition, or should I stick with trygon prime?

-Thanks for the comments if you leave some. I'm a newer player and love the NIDZ, so I came to the place where we all love the NIDZ.

None of the questions reference the title?

People don't like Genestealers because of many 6th ed changes. See the thread about them in the general board. In short, rapid fire bolters got better and overwatch let them shoot even more often.

Termagants have always been popular, especially with a Tervigon or 2 supporting them.

Adrenal glands give +1 str on the charge. Pretty simple. Toxin sacs give you the poison (4+) rule. Check out the rule book.

The most popular Tyrant now is with 2 sets of twin linked devourers with brainleech worms. Then either wings or an armoured shell and guard.

I'd rank carnifex and Trygon Prime about the same, depending on how you use and support them.

Actually the first two Questions reference the title Bub. Well thanks for the information.
By support do you mean like a gargoyle screen or what?

He meant with Tervigons supporting them. As for Carnifexen the only "viable" build is dual TL Devourers. CC Carnifex are way overpriced.
