A Tyranid Heavy support choice?

[Sonikgav]

Couple of problems with that.

A. Trygon Prime isn't Heavy Support.
B. Trygon Prime isn't Heavy Support.

I know these are technically the same problem but it's such a big one I figured I'd mention it twice.

Trygon PRIME?

Portable synapse?

I Ikea the prime. In 5th I say prime away. In 6th I am leaning towards the Mawlock. Although the prime would help with synapse.

Trygon prime is not heavy support?

I think one of us is mixing up the Tyranid prime and the Trygon Prime....could be me.

[Sonikgav]

I've not got my dex to hand right now but I thought the Trygon Prime had been moved to HQ?

Hey I'm fully capable of being wrong, I just wanted to quote Red Dwarf.

= Heavy Support
= HQ

[Sonikgav]

Yeah, got home, checked my Dex, i was wrong.

Either way im not gonna use it. Id need to squeeze another 60 points out of my list to fit one in and although the extra Synapse would help ive already got 2x2 Zoanthropes, a Flyrant and a Tervigon (Basically spread out, almost Diamond formation with the Tervigon at the Back, Flyrant at the front) and besides the Ld 10 guys like Deathleaper and the Genestealers that dont need it, i only have 5 units that really depend on Synapse coverage, 2 of which (Mawloc and Crone) start some of their turns off the board anyway so less rolls.

For my Heavy Support I'll be fielding:

1 Mawloc
1 Excocrine
3x Biovore

[Sonikgav]

For my Heavy Support I'll be fielding:

1 Mawloc
1 Excocrine
3x Biovore

I think thats pretty much whats im gonna be going with.
