Hey Hive. How would you arrange these fellas into lists? Looking specifically for 1k, but if you have suggestions for different point values, I would love to hear them.

I'm facing Orks and IG at the moment, but my BIG opponent is a Necron guy.

Looking forward to your thoughts.

You have a few options really.

Personally I'd be taking the flyrant, Swarmlord, outflanked devilgants, warriors in the rear and either hormies or stealers for forward assaulters.

Depending on upgrades, try and fit in the zoan and/or DoM.

== HQ ==
Hive Tyrant (1) - Scything Talons, Twin-Linked Devourer - Brainleech Worms, Wings, Paroxysm, Leech Essence = 245 pts.

== Elites ==
Zoanthrope Brood (110 pts.)
Zoanthrope (1) = 60 pts.
Mycetic Spore (1) - Twin-Linked Deathspitter = 50 pts.
The Doom Of Malan'tai Brood (140 pts.)
The Doom Of Malan'tai (1) = 90 pts.
Mycetic Spore (1) - Twin-Linked Deathspitter = 50 pts.

== Troops ==
Hormagaunt Brood (23) - Toxin Sacs = 184 pts.
Tyranid Warrior Brood (6) - Devourer, Scything Talons = 180 pts.
Termagant Brood (28) - Fleshborer = 140 pts.

== Total ==
999 pts.

Straight up take psychic shriek and whatever else you scrounge up from telepathy on that lone zoanthrope and drop those two infantry melters as close as you can get them to the heart of whatever is on foot. Meanwhile move the flyrant around to wherever he's needed. String the warriors along in a max distance line for synapse and hang in there. Orks will hate it, any IG foolish enough to be on foot will regret it. I don't know how it will hold up to necron at 1k.

That's the best I could come up with

[Ragged Warrior]

That's great, swarmy

My flyrant is glued with TL BL Devs, but that is the only alteration I'll make. (I'll find the points for it somehow.) I am working on getting some new models, but this will suit me super well for the time being.

I appreciate the tactical advice too.

I'll get some bat reps up soon and let you know how it goes.

Don't forget the Rippers! If you got all of those on sprue, you should have quit a few bases worth

If you need 4 rippers per base, then I only have enough for 2.

[blindmage]

I use 3 per base on mine.

^ Ripper Swarms have 3 wounds so 3 Rippers makes sense to me.

[Ragged Warrior]

Well, that makes life easier. Thanks, guys!
