ok, so i borrowed the nids codex from my cousin and decided to make a 1000 pt. list. its a bit different than i normally would go.
hive tyrant, Hive commander, leech essence, paroxysm, regeneration-215
------
3 warriors, rending claws(no scything talons) 105
2x30 hormagaunts, scything talons, 180
24 termagaunts, flesh bores, 120
-----
carnifex, scything talons, 160/mycetic spore,40.
total:1000
the reason i decided to do this was to expect the opponent not having the ability to deal with 84 gaunts, 30 of them outflanking, a tyrant rampaging along with them, and a deep-striking carnifex to take care of the vehicles or other tough things. the tyrant is pretty durable with regeneration and leech, seeing as he can steal wounds that he didnt make back with regen. and the bone sword will take out all but the hardest HQ, and even then they will have a hard time dealing with him. the warriors are there for a synapse bubble/replacement if anything should happen to the tyrant. they are also some amazing troop, with 3 wounds each!

1. I would take 2 power blobs + straken to counter this. If you'll drown the field with troops so will i
ReplyDelete2. If your cousin actually plays with those nids still i have 8 brand new unassembled gargoyles and 2 built and painted gargoyles to sell to him
see, you need to do a post on guard tactics or lists like i do.
ReplyDeletethis is also my first hoard list so i would have little idea on how to make a proper one. thats my big worry, i hoard/hoard battle and one against someone who has more experience with using them. need more templates or shooting attacks to deal with another hoard. might work out a updated list after a while.
