Hello everyone!
So, while in search of a second army to start I have been lured in by the will of the Hive Mind. However, being that I haven't played Nids before I was hoping to pick the brain of some more experienced players.
So, here is my first real take on an 1849 pt list.
Hive Tyrant
- whip / bonesword
- twinlinked devourer w/BL
- toxic sacs
- biomancy powers (x2)
Hive Guard Brood (x2)
- 2 guard
Ymgarl Genestealer Brood
- 8 Genestealers
Termagant Brood (x2)
- 20 gants
Tervigon (x2)
- Toxic Sac
- Both Additional Psychic Powers (x2)**Not sure if I should stick with the standard, or roll 6th ed powers for this**
Tyranid Warrior Brood
- 3 warriors
- barbed strangler
Mawloc (x3)
Basically the gants and the tervigon march up the board with the warriors. Growing the brood. Tyrant shoots down fliers then can focus on targets of opportunity. Genestealers and mawlocs pop up in the enemy army causing serious issues and the guard are there to pop rides.
Just not sure what to do with the tervigon powers. I like the standard but I feel like there is alot of use in the rulebook for them...
Dominion- Not really needed since I have three synapse creatures in the group.
Catalyst- Can be replaced with Endurance (if I am lucky enough)
I do like catalyst though....if only we could mix and match...
Thank in advance for all the help!
