Jormundaggar idea

[wormlord666]

Lately i have been trying the Kraken/kronor dimachereon netlist by Sherman/mcdouggal and it is fun. I loose a lot, but I`ll learn I hope.

But I`d like to get some other styles working. Is there any hope for a slow moving swarm of ressilient bugs?


Jormundaggar battalion

walkrant with venomcanon and deathspitter
tyranid prime



rippers
30 devourgaunts
29 termagaunts
9 warriors (lashwhip) enhanced resistance

maleceptor
5 tyrant guards (enhanced resistance)
3 venomthropes

3 carnifexes (venomc and deathspt/devourer)
exocrine



exo and dev gaunts can be i reserves and come in for jorm special spell to kick in.
warriors and guards provide a solid center block with good armour (jormundaggar and enhanced resistance), -1 from venomthropes, -1 str. from malanthrope.

Fexes and provide solid shooting and canhopefully live a while with-1, cover and malanthrope.

Is there any hope for this or will it just be a list trying to be deathguard but lesss good at it?

I would say it could work but probbly needs less big gribbly units and more walking monsters.

Could consider more cannons to soften bigger threats and more tyrants to both justify the tyrant gaurd and give them the some free claws to allow for some counter charge... guess it depends on what you typically face off against

If you want to go that route you should look into barbed hierodules. There was one with 3 barbed hierodules that did well a few weeks back. 1+ save, 5++ from dermic symbiosis, -1 to hit, -1S on a T8 chassi and possibly catalyst makes them quite tanky. Carnifex and tyrant guard would be your weakest units in that list.
