Play them as Tyranids. Tyranids have a tremendous variety of 40mm based units that could suit your fancy.

The Great Polyp could be a Tyranid Prime.
The Master Polyp could be the Doom of Malantai....

Yes. Psychic hoods work against the psychic powers of Hive Tyrants, Tervigons, Broodlords, Zoanthropes, the Swarmlord, and the Doom of Malantai.

Run a Daemonhunters army with the occasional Guardsman allies.

Personally, I like the Chapterhouse ones because they actually look alien. Plus, I'm biased because Navarro is my hero when it comes to sculpting.

Considering how early the 'new' Trygon existed prior to actually being released in plastic, it wouldn't be too surprising to see resin versions of the Stormraven in the Codex.

I'm surprised that after so much debate and after so much argument, people still don't understand that Spirit Leech isn't targeted, isn't shooting, and isn't psychic.

Either way, if you take the...

Only Space Eolves were a shock. I still don't think it fits their fluff.

Either way, some armies such as Imperial Guard and Orks have psyhics, but they're not amazing. The codex reflects this....

I wonder how this works regarding skimmers. Does one save dodge the whole slew?

This doesn't affect me too much as my armies either have all-fast or no vehicles, and the prevalence of DethRollas...

I really wonder if any of the people whining about the Heirophant have actually played with/against one or even seen one in real life.

"When a unit embarks, it is removed from the table and placed aside making a note or otherwise marking that the unit is being transported."



"When a unit embarks, it is removed from the table...

Taking a RAW approach.

It says that units deep striking into a ruined building always end up on the ground floor (p95). Thus, you can only arrive on the ground floor. Again, using the rules for...

RAI has no basis here.

You can argue that Spore Mines are mindless bubbles of explodeyness that cannot move 6" in the movement phase.
You can argue that Spore Mines are living and thus the Hive...

Aren't the Blood Angels supposed to be Renaissance-like? Ultramarines are the Roman-influenced Marines and they don't have any six-pack chestplates with nipples showing.

Standardization is good. As long as someone of even mild authority steps up and makes a ruling it is much better than a group of people arguing on the internet.

That is against Tau doctrine and mindset. The only reason they would sacrifice a drone is to protect a Tau life. Otherwise, all their AI is not expendable. Any excuse to throw suicide drones in would...

Curiously, even the previous 4thEd codex was worded as to not explicitly disallowing normal 6" movement.

Aye. Buying online usually nets you 20%-30% off MSRP for new products. I also hear that in Australia, prices for many entertainment items are more expensive.
Either way, buying online is indeed the...

Anarchy Online pulled off the SciFi MMORPG-with-guns concept rather okay. I wonder what sort of gimmick 40k online will have.

If old claims hold true, this will actually be a MMORPG and not the MMOFPS that some are guessing.

Why does every thread on BOLS get derailed into a conversation about Sisters of Battle?

To be fair, Eldar and Tau have a significant following and still haven't had a codex yet.

Assuming Necrosis's information is correct and Blood Angels, Black Templar, Dark Eldar, Grek Knights, and...

Warhounds obv

2 Wounds minimum is really hating on New Tyranids.

If you're proposing a league full of small squads of common and elite soldiers duking it out, it seems unfair to exclude Tyranid Warriors,...

What parts are they?

To be fair, GW.com has, on several instances, shown 'conversions' of Space Marine squads consisting of heads and backpacks from rather expensive kits and even special characters.

Regardless, that...

In 4th edition, they barely added anything to Codecies that got revisions.
Eldar simply got an Autarch (Super Exarch) which is barely used.
Tyranids simply got a Broodlord (Super Genestealer) which...
