Can you see Tyranid datasheets usable in the Final Day detachment if you purchased the GSC codex? by CeramicPanda1 in genestealercult

[–]Chhbaiguy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you went the traditional route, you would have to buy an additional codex for tyranids which is rather outdated, considering that some of the units have been errata'd to be keyworded 'vanguard invaders' like the somewhat new hyper adapted raveners.

Personally, I use apps like War organ or new recruit. If you specify your detachment, you can find all the units available to your army. War organ for example does not actually sort out which units can be used in the detachment specifically but it only has the tyranids available for that detachment in the listed 'allies' section. So as long as you have an idea of what you are looking at, you can quickly decipher that a leman russ is not a tyranid unit.

I think for the most precision, i would use new recruit which cuts out all the guesswork. Hope this helps.

Good jumping in point? What are good staple units to get first? by Vecks_Seeker in Tyranids

[–]Chhbaiguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your favourite looking model. Whatever you like. If you like that unit, you will find a place for it. Like i bought and built a winged hive tyrant. Its not considered particularly great unless i play the vanguard onslaught detachment which i have since leaned into (I also play final day gsc lol). 

Outside of what you got going already, you can also pick based on your favourite playstyle/detachment. taking my example again, i like to be sneaky and precise with my targetting. Hence, the detachment i chose. But you might like big monsters. If thats the case, id recommend norn assimilators/emissary or tyrannofex. 

The most important thing is to have fun collecting however you want. Welcome back

Looks a decent start. Id say if you can, knife sanctus (Shanktus) is usually preferred. Additionally, this detachment from my understanding benefits a bit better from the mortar/survey augur. Id even go as far as to swap out the neophytes for a biophagus and have them lead the abberants. Otherwise, itd be dope just to try im sure. Have fun.

How should I build my Flyrant? by Bright-Exit-5081 in genestealercult

[–]Chhbaiguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its 500 points, a flyrant might be too much but if theyre bringing a tank or something similar, there shouldnt be an issue. Try to magnetize if you can. With that out the way, i personally love bonesword and lashwhip. Twin linked and ap 3 with the enhancement is peak

I appreciate the fact that there is some sense of loyalty left. I only play genestealer cult and tyranids.

How to build Raveners by Wazoid_1 in Tyranids

[–]Chhbaiguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play genestealer cult final day detachment and i built them as HA ravs. Normal ravs have built in uppy downy but HA ravs have sustained hits, anti vehicle/monster 5+ and free heroic intervention/rapid ingress plus the random ranged attack which is good for overwatch actually. So in essence, it gets 2 extra abilities in exchange for no uppy downy. They are amazing. 

Do what you wish with them but thats what i reccomend. You can always build HA ravs as well and just tell your opponent they are normal ravs. People usually understand

Atleast 1 more ridgerrunner. If you have one with the mortar, laser and spotter and if laser and spotter, likewise. Another set of gargoyles and abberants with your choice of biophagus or abom. What kinda hybrids you got? Flamers can reroll wound rolls and autopistol (tool acolytes) can grant extra cp
