I would have to say that Chaos Space Marines would have great success with the following.
Havoc Squad with 4 Autocannons 2 shots of S7 AP4 goodness per Autocannon :)
If you take 3 squads of...
It sounds like you've got a handle on the situation. If it was me though I would just bury him with bodies. All of his single shot tank killers would be reduced to taking out a single man per turn...

I'm tired of finding knowledge. It's time for a kegger!
If the vehicle moves flat out passengers can't disembark.
You can always disembark from a vehicle before the vehicle moves as long as there is no special rule (none that I'm aware of, but better...
I have two major hopes for the Necron update.
Necrons=Tough army to take down. Its fluffy in that they are supposed to keep coming at you and the only way to reliably take them down is through...
Everyone has the right to dislike the composition of an opponent's army, but the only army you have any say in how it is made is your own.
It's kind of like the playing against unpainted models...
I highly suggest bringing the Destroyer pain.
Destroyers- They bring the hurt to all targets. 3 shots at S6 means you'll wound any T4 or below infantry on a 2+ and the Gauss rule means that you...
Welcome to the forum. :)
Tau in our gaming group do quite well. One player who uses them exclusively often tables opponents by Turn 4 or so. He uses a lot of Railguns and missiles and just buries armies under massive...
Carnifexes are more fragile now that they can be insta killed, but they are even better in CC now. If you give them Adrenal Glands and Frag Spines they get 5 I4 S10 hits on the charge with re-rolls...
1st-Orks
2nd-Not sure
3rd-Tau, mixed force with a Hammerhead and a lot of battlesuits.
I placed fourth in the tournament and was pretty happy with my first Hard Boyz showing. I was playing Chaos...
I like to use Hive Commander on my Tyrant to let my Hormaguants outflank.
It keeps my Hormaguants safe from several turns of shooting and I can either jump on targets of opportunity or reinforce...
I'm probably exposing myself to be riddled by flaming posts, but here I go. :D
Magna Grapple is like the vehicle version of Lash of Submission. Nasty when used on you, but they are part of the...
I don't like to stop a game early myself. I'm the type of person who likes to have a soft pile of fallen foes to land on. I might be tabled, but I don't consider it a complete loss if I can take at...
I play Tyranids and what I usually do is swamp them with my numbers.
I have a moat of little critters around my expensive stuff forcing the suits to stick with killing little stuff which is a...
Demon Prince attaching the torso to the legs. I'm still struggling to get it attached good enough to be able to support the heavy upper body which of course leans forward causing a natural stress...
Turn 5 Marines
Movement- Sternguard Vet Squad #1 who are trapped in the corner advance towards the Carni Brood staring at them. Whirlwind #2 moves 1 inch to prevent auto hits from an assault. The...
Turn 4 Marines
Movement- Tactical Squad #1 moves close to Carni Brood #1 to make sure everyone is in rapid fire range. Chapter Master and his Vanguard Vets move up close to the Hormagaunts....
Turn 3 Marines
Reserves- Chapter Master with Vanguard Veterans carrying Storm Shields come on.
Movement- Chapter Master with Vanguard Vets move to within 6 inches of my Deathleaper ready to take...
Turn 2 Marines
No reserves come on.
Movement- Ironclad Dreadnought moves up to get ready to hit the Carnis before they hit the footslogging Marines nearby. Everything else stays in place.

Map was standard size with 2 ruins on each side with a large tower in the middle.
My Plan of Attack: Keep my Carnifexes and Hive Tyrant within 6 of Venomthropes to recieve +5 cover save even in...

To answer your question papa smurf: Normal Hive Tyrants can only use one psychic shooting attack a turn. Only the Swarmlord can use two psychic shooting attacks. :(
I have to say that Paroxysm is...
Tyranid troops do have a tough time assaulting into cover.
If you're trying to use the basic type of gaunt then you're going to have to have some support.
One good support would be to have a...
