Hi, I am new around here. I started playing Epic Scale when I was in my early teens with Adeptus Titanicus. I gave up shortly after Epic 40k came out due to RL and a dirth of people to play with and money. I found Net epic and was re-inspired to play again now that my sons are getting into the over 10 age range and my new fiancee has expressed interest in playing. So enough intro.
Coming back I still have all of my figs, which amount to a very large Imperial Guard, Marine and Titan force, and a small ork force. I am trying to start a Tyranid Army but the eBay prices on the OOP armies are enough to cause me coronary issues. After doing a good bit of reading around this board, I have poured over every working site in the Proxy thread and have come up with the following as a planned Proxy list based on Netepic 4.1 / Space Marine 2nd Ed.

Path=59_68the Red ?? mean I haven;t a clue what to proxy in or convert, aside form that I do not have my heart set on any fig as any proxy, so suggestions are needed and welcome. Also I am looking for a relatively inexpensive source of Tyranid-y Bits for conversions too.
Sorry for the Book, and Thanks in Advance
