Screw the biovore. You have enough tools in there.

I got smoked bad by marines. Don't bother taking bikers anymore!

That’s really disappointing to hear. Did they do much at all?

Bikes did nothing in 3 games.

Game 1 against space wolves I left a space for wulfen to charge my hqs t1. Oops. But the guy was also denying my psychic powers on a 4+ (with a strat he couldn't use).

Game 2 double stormtalon (i think) ironhands with thunder fire cannons. This list nearly tabled me in 2 turns. I quit before T3. Thunder fire cannons halved the movement of both my bikes. They never made it halfway up the board. Too much AP they never got a save. My gants were all dead T2.

Game 3 I beat Raven Guard. He killed all my bikes and gants. Again to much AP. I killed most of his character's with psychic barrage.

I dropped day 2. Got tired of playing marines.
