Actually the Gaunts will run towards the nearest Synapse creature. And since that would always be in their deployment zone it's not a big deal. And if all of my Synapse has been wiped out, then it...

Thanks for the feedback.

I was thinking the Psychic Scream would stack the effectiveness of both Shadow in the Warp and The Horror. Not to mention almost guaranteeing breaks when my Tyrant only...

Heya all,

There is a tournament coming up in October that I am going to take my Tyranids to. I don't have alot of experience at 2K and can't find a way to spend my last 150 points.

And one...

I think all of the replies thus far are re-iterating the same point.

So long as your army has an ability to survive the magic phase, you can ditch your wizards. You either need to have surefire...

And that is most likely what is going to happen. When GW spends the money to make new plastic models, they make sure people want them. And Greatswords. But that was only once...

High Elves are a combo army and better than Empire at everything.

Since he goes heavy shooting it means you have to deal with that so your precious, precious elves have a chance to get across the...

SIGH

I thought my horde army bug was satisfied with 40K. So in addition to having 150+ Tyranids I NOW have to paint 200+ rats to make an awesome Moulder army.

Why does GW love my money so?

Yes.

The only uniform upgrades for Guard are flesh hooks and implant attack. Those are all or nothing's but the switch to lash whips is your choice.

I would concur with your assessment. When Shadow in the Warp first came out for Tyranids the conclusion was that it cancelled out Runes of Witnessing and the Farseer had to pass an unmodified psychic...

That was supposed to be the Shadow in the Warp ability. Problem is that it doesn't effect anything unless you also spam a Psychic Choir.

But it's not necessarily to do with Fast Attack. Battleforces have been changed to provide a couple of nominal troops choices and the new shiny. It started with the Eldar which was comprised almost...

+1 for truth.

And if they're making a plastic Trygon I can't imagine them NOT making plastic Raveners.

Seriously, 'Nid Fast Attack is so $$ restrictive you hardly ever see more than 1 or 2...

Hordes. All kinds of hordes. Nothing is more fun than when your opponent goes all out to kill the 128 Gaunts running at him. Only to lose the game because they're worthless. SO satisfying.

Oh I am too.

Having played Tyranids into my 3rd game edition and the upcoming codex being the 4th Tyranid ruleset since I started (3rd ed BBB, 3rd Ed Codex, current, upcoming) I am giddy.

Each...

Couldn't disagree more. Did this edition change the lists and tactics that work? Sure. Are 'Nids not competitive? Hell no.

The only rules change that 5th edition introduced which limited army...

I was more curious about how 12 Necron models aren't phased out turn 1 before reserves rolls can be rolled.

I mean seriously, doesn't anyone take heavy weapons in the 'Ard Boyz league?

Meh. I'm okay with assaulting tanks. Especially now that skimmers aren't ALWAYS hit on a 6+. AND if Bio-Plasma changes to either an AP1 hit (liked that idea) or became similar to melta bombs, I could...

Seconded.

Our local WoC player takes 4 min sized squads. Turn 1 they march into every table quarter and he leaves them there. Always a nuissance to have your success turn into victory because he...

How many points?

Because I think you need at least 1 cannon with all those pistoliers.

So if it is sub 2K, then I would say take 1 cannon and two units of 10 pistoliers.

If it's over, you...

Buy as many leadership enhancing things as possible.

Ogres are a tough army because the loss of a single model is usually enough to force a panic check. AND on top of that the Ld is pretty low....

Another brood of 32 Termagaunts. My goal is to run a tournament legal 1850 point army with 192 of them. So far I have 96 painted.

What model is that?

The banner is too small to be the LE Standard Bearer from the army box.

It looks like a Waywatcher converted to be holding the Eternal Guard banner.

Really?

Warriors are just too small. You have to build a TIGHT list or you run the risk of getting overrun. It doesn't matter that you're guys are hugely powerful if they get hit in both flanks....

You would be surprised at how quickly they add up though.

If you're playing a list with Gaunts in it you need at least 4 boxes (32 of each variety) which is 4 bases. Then your 3 boxes of Warriors...

Look as BuFFo said, the book can only get worse.

Either that or they'll overpower it and EVERYONE will play it.

I like being the only Dark Eldar player in my area. The hardest games I've ever...
