Hey there everyone.
Got a tournament coming up and I need some help deciding between two list options.
I played at a tournament recently and got I strongly disagree handed to me... but mainly because my models didn't arrive in the post so I couldn't run what I wanted to run.
They are now on their way and I'm looking at getting some vengeance!
I've read all through infornography's 6th Ed tactica and I've been playing bugs in tournaments here in NZ since this codex came out so I'm very practiced with them, so really this is just a call out for opinions.
My meta consists of Eldar (sigh), Necrons, Blood Angels and Chaos mainly. Plus there is a Tau + Eldar list with a Fire Dragon quad gun that I desperately want to turn into the kinda paste that kids eat at kindergarten.
Right so...
List 1:
HQ
1x Hive Tyrant with Armoured Shell, 2x Twin Linked Devourers, Old Adversary, 2x Biomancy Powers
1x Tyrant Guard with Lash Whip
1x Hive Tyrant with 2x Twin Linked Devourers, Wings, 2x Biomancy Powers
ELITES
3x Hive Guard
1x Doom of Malantai in Mycetic Spore
TROOPS
10x Termagants with Devourers
10x Termagants
10x Termagants
1x Tervigon with Scything Talons, Cluster Spines, Adrenal Glands, Toxin Sacs, Dominion, Catalyst and Onslaught or 3x Biomancy Powers
1x Tervigon with Scything Talons, Cluster Spines, Adrenal Glands, Toxin Sacs, Dominion, Catalyst and Onslaught or 3x Biomancy Powers
1x Tervigon with Cluster Spines, Dominion or 1x Biomancy Power (this one was just to sit back, score and just be a regular pain in the butt)
HEAVY SUPPORT
1x Biovore
1x Biovore
1750 exactly!!
OR...
List 2:
HQ
1x Hive Tyrant with Armoured Shell, 2x Twin Linked Devourers, Old Adversary, 2x Biomancy Powers
1x Tyrant Guard with Lash Whip
1x Hive Tyrant with 2x Twin Linked Devourers, Wings, 2x Biomancy Powers
ELITES
2x Hive Guard
2x Hive Guard
1x Doom of Malantai in Mycetic Spore
TROOPS
14x Termagants with Devourers
10x Termagants
10x Termagants
1x Tervigon with Scything Talons, Cluster Spines, Adrenal Glands, Toxin Sacs, Dominion, Catalyst and Onslaught or 3x Biomancy Powers
1x Tervigon with Scything Talons, Cluster Spines, Adrenal Glands, Toxin Sacs, Dominion, Catalyst and Onslaught or 3x Biomancy Powers
HEAVY SUPPORT
1x Biovore
1x Biovore
1x Biovore
1725... (I'm happy to play with the size of the Devourer armed Termagant squad to lose points - so suggestions for the last few points would be welcome too)
Not too different but more targets with redundancy built into list two. However losing a Tervigon on this list would hurt a lot, but it has more options for damage output with the third Biovore and second Hive Guard squad.
I'm not interested in loosing my walking Tyrant. He is awesome and rarely dies, plus I love the buffs he gives the rest of my army
Anyway opinions as to which list you guys think I should run would be greatly appreciated! Thank you
