Admittedly, the more I look, less optimistic I get.
Thanks for the slaps of realism, you guys are the best.

We are no longer as killy because we can't field as much units while secondaries became even harder to score. #sadChitteringNoises

We all knew a nerf was coming.

What supriced me is that the tyranids secondaries did not get a boost, because they where real bad. Tyranids was a great army with bad secondaries (opposed of Necrons.)

The warrior bone swords makes sence, nobody had any reason to take scything tallons. I think they accidentally increased the barbed stranger instead of the venom cannon.

What anoys me is that the overrun stratagem was made the flying hive tyrant good. Now it just dies after the charge. The accumulated 9th edition point increases will make him to expensive I think. A bit bad they got double nerfed for leviathan.

On Zoanthropes you now pay for the synaptic imperative and not just the smite shield battery.

But silver lining: Hive guards with impalor cannon actually went down 5 points, because the weapon is free. Sorry everybody who ran them with the electro gun.

Did anybody ever take the Tyranid seconderies? I never saw it.

Can the Hierophant in AoO Detachment now take adaptive Physiologies? Thinking Dermic Symbiosis or Synaptic Enhancement should be sweet once i add it to my 150 + Tervigon and Zoans list!

Sadly it specifically notes that TITANTIC units cannot take physiologies. I dream of getting my Harridan back out in at least a semi-competitive setting.

Ok yeah u r right...but it can now get affected by hive fleet adaptations like leviathan or jormungandr right? 

[N.I.B.]

I've been out of the loop for a good while - I can't take more than 1 Hive Tyrant in my army? Or is it per detachment?
And can someone explain Arks of Omen: "Restriction - all units must be from the same Faction (and that Faction cannot be TYRANIDS etc)". So nids can't play Arks?
Where are the previous nerfs to Leviathan et al? They aren't included in the FAQ document.
Territorial Instinct - has it been nerfed or was it always a requirement of 10+ wounds to count as 5 models?

So, anything left in the codex or has GW finally managed to strangle all fun? Behemoth Screamer-Killers, Warriors with rending claws and Devourers?

1. You can have one HT per detachment. With AoO you can have two in AoO detachment paying 1CP for the luxury.
2. You cannot mix Hive Tendril and GSC units (both have Tyranid keyword)
3. The Leviathan nerf is still there.
4. TC always needed 10+ wounds to count as 5 models.
5. Yeah the fun is quite gone... unless you call having more and more restrictions and less and less options fun...

Edit: call me retarded but where are previous changes to stratagems like EtP or the one that allowed Mal extra casts? They're not in the current dataslate...

[piersonsmuppet]

The ETP and PotHM changes were errata.

[N.I.B.]

Can't find the Leviathan nerf that removed Transnid from non-monsters.
Nids currently sit at a 53,56% win rate, looks like GW went completely overboard with these nerfs. Yeah I was consider a game of 40K tonight, but can't find the inspiration.

Its the 4th bullet point of the balance dataslate

Too slow. Edit.

Well… my list for LVO is blown.

I’m just unhealthy enough to kind of be looking forward to building a new one.

LVO is using 2022 pts/data slate rules.

Thanks. I just looked, and they put that out on 1/5/2023, and I missed it. You saved me a lot of trouble. I appreciate it.
