just using the high toughness creatures to overpower the enemy, the army creates a lot of creature such as the tervigons creating termagaunts, the parasite creating rippers, and very rarely the harpy creating spore mines.

C&C welcome

Seems like this army would hit pretty hard...in terms of pure kill power you're set.

The only "worry" you might want to consider is scoring. If I played this list my first targets would be the 20 Termagaunts and the Tervigons. Once those were gone (not that hard to kill) you'd be unable to win 66% of the games 40k has to offer.

I'd consider something for holding points, shooty warriors for example...

ok gone with a change getting rid of some units such as the harpy which is just going to get shot down along with the parasite ( i know i could put him with some harpies but they aren't that great) and he is only T4 so can easily be taken out. I also got rid of the swarm lord and got a regular hive tyrant instead, giving him some guard which should protect him (if he is a independent character and joins the unit, hopefully the FAQ will agree when it comes out.) The doom is also pretty good and cheap so thought i would add him.

Personally, I don't like 2 Tervigons, diminishing returns. So in dropping the second Tervigon...
+240 points

90 Biovore Brood
2 Biovores

130 Warrior Brood
4 Warriors, Barbed Strangler

15 points to give the Tyrant Guard Lash Whips. That way, almost everyone fighting the Tyrant's unit will be Initiative 1.

use the last five points however see fit-- scything talons to the Tervigon, or another gaunt...

These adjustments will add some serious firepower, and enhance what you have.
