How would these guys preform?

Hey guys,
Deadlink97 here.

So I made this list. It will be my first 6th edition list, and I hope to learn the rules wiht it. It is a simple 500 points but it incorporates a lot of units,psykers ect. so i should have a good grasp on the rules after several games. But anyways the list is a little bit less niddy in the sense it has less numbers for more geraed up troops. But in short I hope It can run a mock of other armies as i believe the units here wil be much stronger than the guys other 500pts lists would bring.

Basically the tyrant runs around like crazy and takes out everthing good on the other team. The warriors and gaunts walk up take out a lot of enemy units with their dev's and maybe camp a central objective. But the general plan is to blow the opponents units off the table.

== HQ ==
Hive Tyrant (1) - Twin-Linked Devourer - Brainleech Worms, Twin-Linked Devourer - Brainleech Worms, Regeneration, Wings, The Horror, Leech Essence = 280 pts.

== Troops ==
Tyranid Warrior Brood (3) - Devourer, Pair Of Boneswords = 120 pts.
Termagant Brood (10) - Devourer = 100 pts.

== Total ==
500 pts.

would this list get over run or could it handel the armies that will out number it ( personally I think I can get away with this list at 500pts but I'm not too sure)?

Investing half your points in a leader can be quite risky... However, a flyrant tends to be very consistent. The only problem I can see is the vulnerability of your troops. If you're playing an objective game then having 100 points invested in 10 models with 6+ saves and T3 seems a bit much and the warriors are prone to instant death from missiles etc. Why not have 20 termagaunts instead of 10 devils?

I'd definitely take a vanilla Tervigon. Get rid of the extra powers on the Flyrant (unnecessary at this level), get rid of the warriors, find a couple of extra points, add a Tervigon. I've played 500pt games where I have ended up with over a thousand points worth of free Termagants.

You got 200 termagants? The maximum number of tervigons you can get in a 500pt game is 3 (and that's without force organisation). The most you can spawn without running out is 14. So 3x14=42. It would take 5 turns of constantly getting 14 termagants on all three of your Tervigons in a non-standard game to do that...

Seems legit

Sorry, poor wording on my part. I meant I managed to reach 1000 points with free Termagants, so had a little over 500pts worth spawned. I had one Terv as HQ and one as a Troops, spawned beween fifteen and twenty-five a turn between them for all seven turns. They didn't poof out the whole game. I ran out of gaunt models and had to use pennies.

Holy mother of salmons... I love those moments when tervigons live up to their value
