I am looking for some practical advice. I keep wavering back and forth on how to equip some Tyranid Warriors. Do I go with dual boneswords or bonesword/lashwhip?
I will be slicing the talons off to replace with my final decision. The warriors in question also have rending claws. While I like the reducing base-to-base contact to initiative 1, I play horde style with my Nids. The 5 pt savings/ model for dual boneswords adds up and that means more models. The chance to cause instant death on 3D6 (on the rare occurrence that the Warriors come into contact with a multi-wound model) is a nice incentive.
I am sitting on the fence. I have talked to others at the local GW. I have tried both layouts. I am still undecided. What's your thoughts?
