I'm not convinced about Tyranids at low points values, but the advantage of this list is that it's pretty much built so all I'd need is painting time.

Obviously doesnt have the redundancy of a man sized list, but if needs must ;)
ReplyDeleteoverall, i think it should work, you may have trouble with land raiders but i'm guessing you knew that but at least you know which is the scissors to this paper list and can plan accordingly
@ Mike - 1 Land Raider I can deal with, however Land Raider Spam is going to be an issue but I've beaten those lists with no Melta before now on more than 1 occasion.
ReplyDeletePlayhammer beats Theoryhammer and Superior Tactics trump both ;-)
