I feel like the titled question and the poll answers are extremely different.

I put together a decent sized Tyranid army, a year into the 6th edition BRB. I enjoyed playing at my local game store...

This happened far long ago with Legion of the Damned. We make a single sergeant our warlord if we run them as primary detachment and they are all Elites. So no objective secured or anything.

Agreed.

While I do agree, the primary issue I have, is we have several units, that are not viable, they were not worth taking in 5th ed, they still aren't. GW didn't fix the main issues Tyranids had, and I...

I understand the dilemma, and while some will say that's not cool and junk. Let's be honest, the new tyranid codex sucks, it sucks completely. There's no hidden treasure, there's just going to be...

Regardless of gaining the +1 attack, they are fail talons now. Regardless of smaller creatures using them, for hormagants they are not fail talons, but for monstrous creatures, they are utterly...

This is a rather misleading thread name. However, it still is pretty meh, as these fliers are so ridiculously vulnerable in the first place. You could save the enfeeble for something stronger, and...

We do already have some issues that are not clear, and probably will be FAQ'd pretty quick, and will most likely just nerf our army more, I doubt they will ever be for our benefit. Such as the Tyrant...

Well, 5th ed fluff stated a Harpy was akin to a winged trygon, and we all know the trygon is legless, it just slithers around at high speeds. I haven't bothered reading 6th ed fluff yet, as with how...

The +1 attack is added after the stat-line, so a genestealer should then get 3 attacks, 4 on the charge. Also, two pairs of rending claws gives +1 attack, so you do not need to ever buy scything...

Let's add in:

Nerf the deep-striking. ( No more Myscetic Spore. ) - Check
Nerf the now random psychic table. - Check
Nerf HQ units. ( Hive Tyrant no longer able to take +2 armor. ) - Check...

Trygon Primes may take Bio-Artefacts as well.

Use that tactic freely till we receive a copy/paste FAQ of the last one saying the same thing as before.

Edit: And if this was not the intended purpose for the rule, then it truly shows how lazy...

Scything talons was the biggest hit to me, as most of my army was based around these re-roll weapons of doom! I feel like I wasted magnets into my scything talons now. I would usually run a Hive...

It is written the same as 5th edition pretty much, but 5th had an FAQ stating that once a Hive Tyrant/Swarmlord joins a unit of tyrant guard, he can not leave for any reason. However, do note that...

We've even seemed to have lost our Armored Shell for Hive Tyrants, so the Tyrannofex seems to be our only armor 2, unless I am not remembering some other MC with a 2+.


Edit: I wonder what...

Losing BRB psychic powers is definitely what's hurting us the most. With Iron arm, at least we could get EW, even if you roll just a +1. Now it seems to be there's no way to protect from force...

I've been trying to look on the bright side of things as well, but looking at the 3 pictures posted by the OP, shattered all of that. I feel like GW is taking our concerns, and ignoring them. We'll...

We also have no clue what the stat lines are on Hive Tyrants, Carnifexes, nearly anything in the book. What's going to make them more survivable on the board, some of these things pointed out sounds...

Just to point out, it's not 100% guarantee you get catalyst each game, since we probably have to roll for it.

Honestly, this just seems like a way to make Tyranids even less unique, so far with...

Regen sounds like IWND, but with a 4+, Tyranids are losing everything that sets them apart, and by far being made worse in my opinion. I'll read the whole book, play a few games, but my tyranids...

Wow, this is pretty aweful so far. Blinding Venom on a 6+? A single attack? Why? That's the most self-defeating bio-morph ever. And Regen got worse?? One roll? Hell, I'd take the old regen over that...

I honestly plan to just judge it myself once I read the codex. Whoever has the codex probably is messing with us, not giving us accurate information, and possible misinterpreting the rules, which...

That's good to know. According to the white dwarf description of the Psychic cards, we still have access to the BRB powers.

Well, we already do have Psychic Scream in our current edition, so it shouldn't be any more complicated than it already is, which it isn't. The only way I see it being slightly complicated is if we...
