Anyways, i am too negative right now about 40k (had been playing since 2edition, you can guess how invested i had been on this game), so i will quit posting in this blogpost to shit on 40k, apologize for any inconvenience because i can bet some of you are still having a lot of fun with it, and the more power to you. I will just answer build specific or tactics if you have any doubt, i already wrote up answers to your questions in the first page Cheers. | ||

That said in the bay area we still see some other races placing highly and doing ok. The game is NOT balanced of course.. and various editions piss of X player with X race but I think it is "close" enough that I can as a Tyranid player go into this and think that with good knowledge and execution I can be fine (also a lot of luck!). Going to have fun  Excited about the new codex because the rumors are a lot of buffs for Tyranids (better anti air, some buffs to the big bugs like invul saves and tyranid specific warlord traits/psyonic powers). | ||

Hey guys! I commissioned www.frontlinegaming.org to paint my Tyranids army and it is nearly complete. Hi. Not a good timing, since they release a new codex in January 2014 and your army list may become not competitive or even downright illegal If I was you I wouldn't worry much about the questions you asked until I see the new codex. Hell, I already stopped theorycrafting for my Imperial Guard even if they get rereleased only in April.Not sure why you call 6ed bad, I like almost every change they made, with the exception of totally random charge range. Overwatch? Awesome. Better balanced vehicles? Awesome, got tired of meltavets already. Flyers? Ummm... they are OK I guess... Missions? Good, with an exception of relic, I hate that one. Removing models closest to the fire source? Awesome! What don't you like about 6th? | ||

I have all the models 3-4x over and then 30-40 each of terma/horma and genestealers. Thanks for your concern though! | ||

But yeah, with the new Codex in a couple months it's a bit iffy altogether, meta might shift soon anyway | ||

In my first two play test games they didn't come in at impactful times and one of the instances they did damn near nothing haha. Cool in theory I guess! my list dropped 1 tervigon/ymgarls and instead put in a trygon prime and 20 hormagants I also dropped 1 flyrant and I am trying out a Swarmlord The Swarmlord is kick ass, only unit in the game that can one shot Dragowing haha Also, TL really needs an official Warhammer/Wargaming thread. | ||

Also, TL really needs an official Warhammer/Wargaming thread. Something similar to LoL forums | ||

Used to play this game religiously when I was a teen, then stopped after finding starcraft. Was never competitive because you need a complete army list to compete, and the important stuff all cost too much $$ for a teenager. | ||
