The Pipanids

[pipsickness]

Thought I'd drop in what I have so far in the hive fleet and see if anyone has any suggestions as to what to get next!

1 Swarmlord
1 Hive Tyrant
1 Flyrant
1 Tervigon
3 Zoanthropes
1 Venomthrope
1 Lictor
18 warriors
6 Ravenors
40 Genestealers
2 Broodlords
60 Hormagaunts
90 Termagants
12 gargoyles
6 Carnifex
1 Trygon
1 Biovore

8 Gargoyles and another Tervigon.

It opens up some other list combos for you like Gargoyles leading Hormagaunts and double Tervigon troops...

Looking at your list, I see things that reminded me of my own, 18 warriors and 6 Carnifices... Oh those were the days!! How they collect dust and scare away critters off of the shelves...

I know what you mean. A lot of them just sit there looking aggresive. I don't think I've ever used more then 2 'fexs in one game.

The other thing of note about the Pipanids is that they are pretty much exclusively close combat (biovore notwithstanding)

It's all about the stabby stabby for me.

Before you go buying new models, take advantage of what you got. I would convert some of the Warriors into a Prime, a Tyrant Guard or two and some Shrikes. After that, a Biovore or two, some Pods and Gargoyles.

Another tervigon.Id consider working on a mycetic spore conversion i feel like they work very well in many game types to deliver the fexen to the heart of the battle but it seems you have a very strong swarm built up so conversions and painting would be a good idea. Good luck in your gaming in the future.

1 zoanthrope, another to convert in to the doom, a Tervigon, and another box of gargoyles. Otherwise you're pretty well set.

Regarding the prime I have some of the first warrior models brand new in the box so I was thinking of using these to convert a Prime and Parasite. I think the wasp look will work really well for a parasite and i'm thinking maybe also for a prime but i'm not 100% sure what i'm doing yet!
