So after a long time spent lost in the warp and returning and attempting to learn very different set of rules til i last played ive decided to shake off nids as my primary learning army(with ba as my artistic practice army and iron warriors as a work on til new codex drops) id a pretty good rep with my nids playing when i last played and there's been a few changes since. ive a rough temporary list which ill ink in another post. still very undecided which hive fleet and what direction to go with warlord traits and psychic powers etc. iirc when i last played no one unit mattered too much in play it was more about presenting too many options and trying to time everything to hit at once and panic my opponent... so when i do get it working right much would have been running cover and deep striking. not sure how well such will work with all these d weapons and multi wound models etc but sure is all about the learning curve for now. anyway piccys before i get a list in too army shot(not all pictured was mostly aiming for my list atm trygon prime and rear zoanthropes zoanthrope and my old doom model converted biovore from tyrant guard parasite of morthrax conversion warriors my old faithful flyrant a hybrid broodlord lictor model ++ Battalion Detachment 0CP (Tyranids) [80 PL, 11CP, 1,478pts] ++ + Configuration + Battle Size [12CP]: 3.
