Fast Attack list?

[shinra1988]

Hey All!!

I was wanting to make a fast attack tyranid list for fun.

Wondering if anyone could help/give ideas/suggestions for a good synergy list on this one.

Something that can rush across the table and hurt people's feelings.

I usually play 1850 pt games.

This is what I've got so far.

HQ:

Hive Tyrant - Wings / 2x TL BL Devourers / Old Adversary - 285pts.

Hive Tyrant - Wings / 2X TL BL Devourers / Old Adversary/ Hive Commander 310pts

Troops:

20x Devilgants + pod 240 pts.

20x Termagants Vanilla - 100 pts

Tervigon / extra power / tox / adren/ claws - 220 pts

Tervigon / extra power / tox / adren/ claws - 220 pts


Elites:

Ymgarl x 8 - 184 pts (I think?)

Doom of Malantai/ pod -130 pts

Fast Attack:

Gargoyles/tox x 23 - 161pts

Total: 1850 on the dot.

What do you guys think?

I like to have my flyrants running around gunning at the enemy, while staying close enough to any close combat / shooting to provide preferred enemy to a squad or two of gaunts.

Cheers

seems like a good list but its not really fast attack as you only have 3 units like that. (mabye consider shrikes?? or ravs?)

Seems like a highly mobile fun list to play. Id love to try it out myself, but don't have the models yet. How have your games gone with it so far?

I have 9 raveners and 9 warriors (which could proxy as shrikes)

I would have to drop the tervies though, is that okay?

I've never played a game without them. I almost feel that I NEED them to win games.

How about - 2 tervigons - 1 devilgant (450 pts)

1 unit shrikes (4) + Lash whip bonesword = 200

1 Unit Shrikes (5) + Lash whip bonesword = 250

or

- 1 gant (5 pts) - 2 tervigons (440) - 1 devilgant (10) = 455

9 raveners with rending claws (315)

and another unit of 20 gargoyles with tox (140

and the list plays quite well. Gargs fly in and tie up units while the rest of my army catches up, and tox + preferred enemy tends to work quite well against most anything. haha

I just want to add more fast attack options to it! Let me know what you think.
