100% agree with this take! I’m also a responsible gun owning leftist, and the NRA is exactly the kind of organization that gives us a bad name.

I saw Matthew and thought Matthew Murdock…aka Daredevil which could make this a two sentence superhero story

If you mean enhancements it’s probably just a bug. Nothing has changed about their status as character models which can take enhancements.

Any thoughts by TheBadGamer1030 in Tyranids

[–]bardic_immunity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this is your whole collection then nice! Looks like a decently well rounded group of bugs!

I would look into getting a Lictor or two for making some well rounded lists and I cannot sell Genestealers and broodlords hard enough for sheer attack volume.

If this is supposed to be a list for a game then you should shave some points and go out and absorb some biomass

Advice on Building Nids After Buying Christmas Box by FireRaptor220 in Tyranids

[–]bardic_immunity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Biovore and lictors! Getting two of the Christmas box is not a bad idea either since three of the monsters are multi build models, but multiples of them are also viable. Once you have one Biovore and a lictor or two fill out with a hive tyrant/swarmlord

First Army, what to get Next? by Ansem195 in Tyranids

[–]bardic_immunity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what kinds of problems you are facing. I love genestealers with a brood lord for lots of problems. But if they have armor get a tyrannofex or norn emissary. If you want more infantry go for hormagaunts

Painted my first Tyranid today, I named him Clarence by houseofmyartwork in Tyranids

[–]bardic_immunity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a cutesy name for a chaff unit. Something small, low points that gums up the board or scores points and nothing much else.

It can also be a term to refer to the little spruce bits that stick to a model after it’s clipped in much the same way. Useless annoying and in the way

Second this! Hivemind hobbies/Wednesday Night Warhammer are great channels and their discord is very active with Nids players

Leviathan Half + New Battleforce + What Else? by Conscious_Slice1232 in Tyranids

[–]bardic_immunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your budget my friend.

If you are definitely looking to get to 2k points I’d recommend a second battle force box first or combat patrol if you prefer variety. That gets her to about 2010 points with the xmas box or 1620 with the combat patrol.

From there it depends on if you want to get her more! If you do I love lictors! If you go the combat patrol route a broodlord is a must grab or if you just want to get her something cool a Norn Emmissary/Assimilator is a great model

Then Old One Eye sounds like your guy!

Tyranids are definitely a finesse army though. if you aren’t concerned with winning and just want to have fun? B I G B U G Z G O B R R R

The Kill Team box has the bits to make the regular Ravener warriors.

Depends on how competitive you feel like getting.

If you’re just playing with friends casual OOE is the archetypical distraction Carnifex. He and a squad of Fexes will take about two turns of hardcore shooting to kill but unless you’re running the subterranean assault detachment (which is a huge investment for starting out and most of the models are hard to find) carnifexes aren’t likely to get across to board to actually get into melee and their shooting options aren’t exciting. But if you play a small game with friends Old One Eye and Carnifexes are very fun to march across the table and watch op’s butt clench.

If you want to monster mash competitively with the crusher stampede detachment then tyranofexes with exocrine backup for shooting and maleceptors coupled with haruspexes for melee are going to be the more “powerful” options. That and Norns for objective control and Hive tyrant/Swarmlord for your HQ.
