Yay!  A Tyranid win!  *laugh*  Thanks for posting this, Hena!

So, your and your opponent's thoughts?

It looks like the Tyranid Warriors were pretty well shredded, although it looks like that was mainly due to artillery and such rather than suffering from LV status.

Though it did take four turns to do it... *laugh*

cool bat rep, best representation of the whole "hoard of nasty bity scratchy things" that = tyranids. I can just picture the IG blasting futilely at the approaching horde, only to be overrun and torn limb from limb!

Sounds like Tyranids played perfectly to their strengths - how do you think IG could have improved their strategy?

Hey, first win with them since... umm, last year? :)

Warriors were toasted because I didn't save with them ( 7 hits to warriors, 6 dead). Otherwise IG packed good punch against them because many weapons have possibility to change between ap/at.

Hena rolled few critical 1s at activations and that helped a bit. (but ig with blast markers fail activations 1/3, so it is accepted that few will fail.

Princess was great on flank, there was almost no change of harm coming. It is also best way to keep bts save. Harridans are so great, they are everything other nid units lack. Fast, shooty, CC & FF are average, OK save, wings, 4dc and damn cheap. Best unit in the list IMO. I think we should try a real spam list with those to see how effective it is.

Raveners are still best common brood by far. we were using that gaunts half casualties in assaults are rounded up. That engourages taking raveners even more. Gaunts are bit expensive I think.
