How do you deal with DG vehicles infantry+ ksons (please do not swear)?

Played a warm up match today for GT next week. 3 plague burst crawlers 2 bloat drones DP typhus and 40+ poxwalkers/ksons aruman 30 tzaangors and some rubmewrong marines. I have played this guy several times and I have yet to make it past turn 3 without it being ultra lopsided I have been playing with a harli/DE/craftworld hybrid and 5++ with 5+++ is just over the top on T7 T8 what do you do with this without seriously gimping your horde killing ability ?

I still haven't found the huge hype over the Burst Crawlers myself. I used one in my first DG game and I found it rather underwhelming. I think the general consensus is to use it as movable LOS blockers, but I don't think it is big enough for that. It almost has Land Raider stats, but it is closer in size to anything with a rhino chassis. Plus it has 4+ BS? Damage it enough for 1 bracket, now its BS 5+ unless it moves.

You're just using one is the problem.

This exactly 1 can be focused 3 on the other hand + bloat drones . They are some of the best base sitters so not moving. And if you get close enough for them to advance into you with flamers at S7 . 5 quin bikes with haywire canons manage to kill one after putting 7 MW on it charged it with zephyrglaives dealing another 2 to it. It fell back and I strat to shoot again after it fell back killed it then the bikes got savaged by a bloat drone that was 24" away at the start of his player turn. DG seige engines are tough

And they are only 140 pts of disgusting

Bloat Drones go down pretty easily with Hive Guards. Just played a game last night against DG and his Bloat Drones were dead by T2. The Plageburst Crawler thingy proved to be more of a pain as it hid out of LOS.

Nids need to simply ignore those things. Kill the rest of the army first. We don't reliably kill them. They can't win a game if they only have 3 of those left.
