Tyranid Unit of the Week 10th Ed Lictor, Neurolictor and Deathleaper

[Brother Nathan]

++Lictor, Neurolictor and Deathleaper++

 

 

thought it best to group these 3 together. how do you rate them. how have they done. re they stealthy enough? 

 

• To compliment a list, or to build a list around? Will the beta rules affect your list(s)? And at what points restrictions?
• What size unit? Will you be running multiple units?
• What Enhancements, Hyper Adaptations and Stratagems do you prefer and how much does it depend on the above choices?
• Are you buffing this unit? If so, how

The Lictor has taken a big hit from he index losing its invuln. The neurolictor looks quite tasty for disruption and being quite tough with the 4++, however could do with being synapse.  Normal lictor is a bit mre killy, but unlikely to survive any real engagement. 

 

For backfield disruption I'd probably go with the neuro. 

 

Not used deathleaper yet, however he seems just like a regular lictor +1.

whilst i agree, the lictor and its sheniagans  have ability to disrupt out but yea no inv really hurts it...  each really has a place in nids and are all priced to move.  so far my death leaper has gotten focused out each game mind...

[Brother Nathan]

ran a deathleaper and lictor on sat... both got focused out again... literally got removed straight away.
