I just got a whole bunch of my old 'Nids infantry painted and therefore ready to be sacrificed for the unstoppable advance of the hive mind... Yet I somehow lack the experience to tell if the list I made up would work at all. The whole thing is limited by the models I've got. I tend to dislike proxying (heck, I even refuse to play with any unpainted miniatures) and Epic 'Nids sprues seem to cost a fortune, so I'll need to get along with what I've got.

I made up a small list - while the amount of common broods is already at max, I've got lots of metal minis unpainted, so any advice concerning that part of the army would be welcome.

2 Gargoyle Flocks 200
2 Hormagaunt Clusters 100
5 Termagaunt Clusters 375

1 Trygon Cluster (2 Trygons) 200
1 Assault Spawn Cluster (2 'Pexes) 175
1 Bio-Artillery Cluster (4 'Vores) 150
1 Zoantrophe Cluster 100

1 Hive Group 475 (BTS)
1 Attack Group (1 Hive Tyrant) 100
2 Assault Groups 300

2 Lictor Swarm (3 Lictors each) 300
1 Genestealer Swarm (9 'Stealers) 225

As I have zero experience playing 'Nids and merely inconsiderable more experience playing Epic (as finding some players and organizing myself some spare time is usually harder than anticipated and I'm usually quite happy with painting a mini every month or so ) the whole list is mainly based on what I thought looked cool and therefore was supposed to get painted first. It's a 2700 points list which I had in mind as a standard size... If I'm not mistaken the list has 7 activations - which is probably due to the lots of points focused on the Dom. I'm even unsure how to assign the broods to the synapses  . As I said before: Any advice would be welcome.
