| Quote (Chroma @ 01 Nov. 2005 (14:30)) | | One thing I do think should be changed is that all Tyranid bio-tanks should have walker as they aren't going to throw a track or get hung up on terrain like a non-organic vehicle. ?Thoughts? |
Sounds sensible.
Great batrep by the way Chroma. Almost too much to take in reading on screen but having browsed through a printed copy of thtead and re-reading your summarty of commentary I found it very absorbing and well written.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers
James

You keep talking like that and I may just write another one! *laugh*
Hoping to line up a Marine and an Eldar opponent for the Nids in the next couple of days.

Thanks for the tip!
I think I may focus on slightly more shooty; as well, I'll try to remember my Termagants and test them at CC6+/FF5+! As well, the suggestion of a larger Zoanthrope brood intrigues me. I've got six and I've just been using 2-3 as anti-air support in various broods... but 4 or so together with some other stuff might be nasty!
