Hi all
it's my first post here.
next month I have a league game (only 1500 pts army allowed) but I'm not sure what to bring on the table or what would give me a winning chance.
The game is vs Orcs (a veteran player)
I have a collection but mostly basic troops, lots of termagaunts (120+) , 60 hormagauns, around 100 genestealers, 3 zoanothropes, 3 tyranid warriors, sporemines, broodlord, hive tyrant, swarmlord, tyrranofex, gargoyles 10, 1 biovore, 1 deathleaper.
Next to that, I have bought some carnifex - but still have to get them in order.
I made some lists on Battlescrib, but at the moment my 3de one would be the one I would use.
