One very good comment about the nexus swarm was found in the french boards. Is the +25 point too little for the +2 to spawning. Mainly as the unit is worth taking even if one expects the Tyrant to die (eg buy only infantry brood as meat shield). Sure there is then 1 less synapse critter but the if the spawning still remains at the d3+2 level it would be well worth that 25 extra points. Perhaps more so that one could think to take only Nexus groups?
Would it be too hard to add note to Nexus group
"If the Hive Tyrant dies from Nexus group, the spawn value is lowered to 1d3"
I think that note should be there.
Do you think the Nexus Group should be a 0-1 formation?
I always believed the Dominatrix should be that way as well! *laugh*
Personally, I think the spawning level should be based on the number of Synapse creatures left, so that a single Tyranid Warrior survior would spawn less than the full three.
What about "For every Synapse creature casualty from a Synapse Group, reduce spawning points by 1"?
