Saw that a 'nid player went 4-2 at the LSO. YOHB? Curious to hear how it went and what you faced.

There is a bit of a breakdown of the list and the different matchups on Frontline gaming (apologies if you've already seen it):

Thanks. At least we see what his opponents were, but the list analysis is pretty superficial.

Yeah, no surprise there, double dima and a bunch of our other regularly taken units. I kinda wish there was a surprise hidden in that list but alas, nope. Without more information about those sisters lists or the admech one or how well they each did in the competition, just knowing the faction doesn't mean much I'm afraid.

Im personally fond of double charging things like characters and their blob, so that I can get the most out of the d6 mortal wound ability. And since S3 units have a big problem beating str 7 on a die roll 5+ because you have to beat his base strength, things like sisters and admech in melee would suffer greatly due to that. anything not getting bad touched get shot into hard probably then rinse repeat with bully swarmy beating up any infiltrators

my best guess^
