Right, pretty soon when i get some more money, and i've finished painting my necrons, i'm going to start collecting a Tyranid army.
I'm going to make this army a real fluff army, as in i'm gonna get alot of unique looking models and customise them, and have a really special list. I want it to have a cool custom theme basically, not any of that bog standard swarm stuff most people have. Here's the list i've come up with, as i always find creating a list is the best way to start of your army collecting -
10 x Ripper Swarm w/ winged + Adrenal Glands (+1WS). Toxin Sacks (+1S) = 250 Points
3 x Ravener w/ Scything Talons = 114
1 x Winged Hive Tyrant w/ Toxin Sacks, Acid Maw, Toxic Miasma, Extended Carapace, Rending Claws, Sycthing Talons.
= 180
3 x Warriors w/ Winged, Scything Talons, Rending Claws, Toxin Sacks, Adrenal Glands, Extended Carapace = 138
8 x Genestealers = 128
7 x Genestealers = 112
7 x Genestealers = 112
1 x Broodlord w/ Toxin Sacs + Extended Carapace + Feeder Tendrils = 93
5 x Genestealers w/ Scything Talons, Toxin Sacks, Extended Carapace, Feeder Tendrils = 145
1 x Carnifex w/ Crushing Claws, Tusked, Scything Talons, Extended Carapace,
Adrenal Glands, Acid Maw, Reinforced Chitin, Regenerate, Toxic Miasma = 216
The fluff behind this list is that, as you can see, there is not a single unit which needs Synapse. I have no gaunts in my list, which is rare amoung any tyranid player. It's also a cool themed list because you have so many different attacks. You have winged rippers (rarely seen) and a large amount of Genestealers barreling down the middle, getting to the enemy as fast as possible. Then, to draw attention slightly away from the open genestealers, is a massive Carnifex with all the upgrades i could give him to keep in the points limit. This guy will be a beast to take down, and hopefully soak up alot of bullets. Then, whilst the enemy is focused on all that coming down the middle, you have a Broodlord Infilftrating with 5 pumped-up genestealers near the flank, a Winged hive tyrnat with winged CC warriors all coming down another flank, and then last but not least, Raveners deep striking behind them. Even if the list proves to not be that effective, i just love the concept behind it.
This is one hormagaunt i borrowed of Jamie, to show you how the paint scheme is going to look -
Gonna say they came from a Jungle world which had been nuked by the Imperium, to explain the green-ness and the fact that they have small numbers unlike most Tyranid Fleets.
And also, for the hive tyrant, i plan on buying this model -

And for my carnifex, i plan on really customising him, but mostly i want him to have the Claws that this model has -

You can buy them seperatly so i plan on doing that.
I'll keep you updated how this comes along over the next.. 4 months or so.
