Upcoming 1850 tournament list

[roxor08]

Hey guys, I'm having a problem shaving my 2k list down for an upcoming tournament.

Currently it's:

HQ
Flyrant w/1 set BL-devs, Hive commander
Flyrant w/1 set BL-devs, Old Adversary

Elite
3 Hive guard

Troops
10 Devilgants in mycetic spore
10 Devilgants in mycetic spore
Tervigon w/TS, Stinger Salvo, and all three psychic powers
Tervigon w/TS, Stinger Salvo, and all three psychic powers

Fast Attack
15 Gargoyles

Heavy Support
Trygon
Trygon
3 Biovores

Total: 2000 Points.

I'm trying to build an all comers list (and I feel that my current list achieves this) I'd like to maintain it's target saturation, but removing 150 points is hard (and the easy answer would be Hive guard, but I don't have much anti-mech...)

Advise would be greatly appreciated!

It would be nice if you could Post the list values overall.

But yeah the list actually looks good, I don't know but it looks like you need a big more anti tank to aid th HG.

I mena the list looks good I can see your units chopping things up but you chopping something out of the list might not go well. I'd say kill one flyrant use the spare points on some more troops ( non Dev dsing ones) just to even your scoreing out.

But yeah my 2 cents.

I edited it with your suggestion Deadlink.

As far as anti tank, what do you think about podding a brood of Zoans?

Thanks for the feedback!

I'd sooner drop a Trygon than a Tyrant. Then you can add another Hiveguard and split the unit.

You could keep all of the non devilgant elements in your list by dropping the spores and devourer upgrades, leaving room to throw a couple more devourers on your flyrants. Alternatively, you could try to trim out extra points/powers by getting rid of old adversary which I think is a rather worthless upgrade in this list unless you are flying up to support those devil gaunts in which case I would go for a bigger squad anyway. Otherwise he is basically giving himself scything talons for 25 points.

My suggestion for 150 points out of the list with as few changes as possible would be(roughly): removing old aversary, removing the spore from one squad of 10 gants and dropping the devs, dropping one biovore as I find it much easier to hide 2 than 3 without a huge impact on output.

That keeps the vast majority of the elements in your list by just trimming a few extra upgrades. It lets you keep a gant sqaud hidden on an objective so you can spawn towards your enemy rather than towards your own objective. It keeps the presence of spore delivered devourers as well as the presence of biovores (I love those guys!).

Personally, I run my tervs with just 2 psychic powers. I roll with my flyrant(s)/broodlord first and see what I get. If I get an extra FnP node from endurance, I may roll the tervigon to see what comes up. If I have 2 tervigons I will usually roll one even if I don't just because endurance is better, but leave one if I don't get it for a catalyst back up. I save a few points this way to fill out other squads. I also like the toxin sacs on the tervigons because it makes the lackluster assault skills of the tervigon a little better, especially when smashing against characters, or hitting t5 and below stuff.
