I've heard some people say this codex doesn't have a lot of staying power, particularly since the armies that came after it have some really nasty Nid killers.
Carnifex's can be in units of one to three, with adrenal glands and frag spines you assault into cover and strike at the same time as marines with reroll ro hit if you take two sets of scything talons. Plus you can cast Feel No Pain on the whole unit if you take a Tervigon.
Venomthropes rock! You just have to keep it directly behind a monstrous creature so people cant draw line of sight.
ive played like 100 games since new codex and ive won like 1 of them,
this new codex takes the fun out of playing, might aswell change the name to "sitting ducks" the only elites u should use are ymgarls, and as troops genestealers its like a minor version of a deathwing army, then spam spore mines to minimise their table edge. trygon prime is allright.
its true that they dumbed down the standard carnifex, but i still reserve my place to whine when a realy cool model becomes a shelf peice and dust collector, sad they lost rending claws.
when are you actually gonna put up unit reviews called talking about tyranids. none of your vids actually say talking about tyranids, just unit review whatever.
i don't like the fluff in the codex and some units are pretty shit *cough* pyrovorewtf*cough* but i like it overall. its balanced and its a nice change from the old codex where you could only run nidzilla or pure swarm. imo
@Daroko333 turn them into tervigons, or cut there legs/tails off and give em scything talons. then go ahead and put dirt around it so it looks like its burrowing or something, watch aux's vid with the newer trygons he has.
I must say, I've played against nids twice now, one draw, and one loss, technically the draw I had just about won, but due to a couple of errors we had a gentleman's agreement (which I initiated incidentally) that we'd call it a draw. TBH I don't think it's quite as broken as ppl first thought, okay the instant death rule is gone, but hey come on, that rule is so broken anyway, and most of what it affects can't be ID'd anyhow, (Hive Tyrants et al.).
God damnit, the codex has some great stuff, but overall its a disappointment.
CRUDdace (lol), copied a lot of stuff from other codices. Carnifexes suck now because of this. 9 Carnifexes would of been nice if Guard didn't have 9 of their Carnifex equivalents (tanks), but they do it better. In fact, they do it so significantly better that Carnifexes are considered a bad choice.
And the Tyranid drop pods.... are such marine knock offs. I mean, they are great and all, but that just annoys me.
one of the things i missed reading the dex the first time, but have come to realize is somtimes a big deal , is the lack of flesh hooks , whenever i ran with stealers or homagaunts i always gave them flesh hooks, since they cant have them anymore , charging an enemy in cover can be a painfull experience
@warpfyre Plus when I was reading it it felt like I was reading a Necron Codex or something. Half the biomorphs are gone--I liked it better when each had their OWN page.
In all honesty, I agree with how the Tyranids have changed and such, but a lot of people may have different views on excepting it; basically. I mean, the Old Codex was a nice book, I'll admit, but for what things could do they did overprice such.
My stuff is still my old Nid stuff and I still feel like my old army, because it's what I expect to find fun out of and how it works.
Well, that's my opinion on how things work. I will continue to watch your vids are they continue.
@Darforl If you want to comment on someones video maybe you should watch it to the end dumbass... He brings up valid points and conclusions in the other half of the video.
@Lerbrandt I am sure he does, and there is no need to call me an dumbass for trying to give a guy some constructive criticism. As I was just trying to help out with a constructive comment. Take care man, and for you own sake try to not get angry with people for no apparent reason, its not healthy for you.
@Darforl Constructive criticism?? "A little to much whining in this video" is NOT constructive, it is just a statement that he can not use at all, look it up you twat. First of, you fail to grasp the point of my reply; It is not that you are a dumbass, it is that you comment on something you have no full understanding of (not wacthing the end of the video) and secondly, I HAVE an apparent reason to get angry, and that is when people speak their mind without much thought or knowledge.
BAAAAAAHH WAAAAAAAAAAHHHH I have to change play style
BAAAAAAHH WAAAAAAAAHHH I can't immediately spot the new power build
BWAAAAAAHHHHH!!
Seriously. We have a new codex, it's different from the old, it allows a multitude of viable synergy builds, but your Carnifec's aren't overpowered anymore. Deal with it.
@Kuspetaren The problem was the blatant cashgrabing that this dex' represented. It radically altered the worth of mainstay units from the previous one in an attempt to force sales.
the other think that kills me about the new dex is you need a lot of Termagaunt.... And a termagaunt box set is like 30$ in my country.... And currently i only have 8.... And i have 1 useless, illegal fex on my army....
So, i think IG might be more 4 me because i like shooting A LOT.... And the cadian shock troops set isn't too expensive in my country.... it's 22$...
Sorry, can you be more specific? When did who have what? There's a S10 AP1 weapon in all of those codexes though the Space Marines and DH have the Orbital Bombardment (S10 AP1 Ordinance 1 Large Blast). Just look through the books and you'll find it all.
i haven't got my copy yet, but thanks to mr internet i have read the codex. i really have to agree with everything Auxelli0n said. pretty much all of the new unites are just some kind of ranged unite and the trygon. the mawloc is cool and all, but just like the trygon, it cant break big tanks. the trygon and mawloc are only st6 so is the vehicle has rear armor 13 your fucked. i hope if we complain enough they'll errata. and do we have models yet for all the new stuff even?
Trygons and Mawlocs are Monstrous Creatures, so they get S+ 2D6 against vehicles. They can kick over tanks just as easily as a hive tyrant or (almost as easily as) a carnifex. Also, considering the way they enter play, it might be easier for them to actually get there. Trygon Prime is definitely one of the most powerful units in the codex, and it makes sense, as Aux said, GW wants to sell lots of them!
@Auxelli0n ok im not a nid player but from what i heard is that the new fex isnt all that great but the tyrant is better... feel free to correct me on this
make new vids about useing the new nids im really counfused and i think many are so it would be very helpful if you make a new talking about tyranids with the new codex
I think that some of the options in the new codex are better than the 4th ed, but i think that they could have kept the carnifexes as beast solo units rather than weaken them and brood them up...
i really have to agree with you aux they have made a lot of changes. the only thing that you are going to need to do is pick the units that are the most use full. and just try and ignore the fact that they screwed up the codex
I'm not even sure what you just said but all Monstrous Creature means is it's attacks ignore armor, it is relentless, and it has move through cover. THAT'S IT. Being a Tyranid now does not change that. Welcome to Instant Death vulnerability, like they should have. It's okay, it's not a big loss for the big things, just the "large" based creatures.
I wasnt too happy at first bc i (like everyone else) played nidzilla...but now i think im gona play swarm wich seems fun so i think im happy with the codex
i love the phil kelly play style, but i am happy that with the new codex allows for real originality, but they are just not gonna work. i would say that 3 trigons will be the competetive lists. 3 trigons and a shit load of gaunts. i would say people should use 6 drop pod gaunt squads, 3 trigons, 2 drop pod hive tyrants with the anti tank ven cannon, and a load of zoanthropes. i read through and was thinking, okay, i need to get ready to fight that army. i hate the new codex as a nids player.
Carni's got punked. They wanted everyone that had 5 carni's to buy 5 tevrigons. easy buck?
Im hearing a lot of love on death leapers and spore corralling. also gargoyles are now cool. Swarm lords are ok. idk i like the codex as an opponent. its funneri know thats not a word) to play against
lol, im happy i started up marines and not nids for the holiday. lols, im winning every game with the marines. i only lost one game, and it was to nids, and he had a load of proxied tervigons, 5 to be exact, which is the max, and he put them in cover and had zoans and just kept on having his guys crap out gaunts. it was bases and he contested, while i only got one turn of movement. lol, thats what you gotta do to win i guess
no man, the trygon prime has an assault 12 gun, the ability to open up s tunnel for your guys to come in from, and then there are the drop pods. other than that, nothing really looks too good. i would only take a hive tyrant for lack of better HQ, though a swarmlord seems okay, he cant have tyrant guards.
I don't own the codex yet, but I have read it. I'll have to agree with you on this one Aux, I don't particularly care for this new one, but it IS our 5th Edition Codex and we're either going to have to accept and adapt, like the Tyranids, or quit...and who wants to be a quitter? Not I, sir. :-P I'm still going to try to run my Carnifexes as they are and see what happens. I wish the new custom monsters had their own model kits though. :-\ Good first review though. See you on the hive.
So you'd rather play with this? No, I'd have 4th ed over this one ANY DAY! In fact I might just use 4th ed and tell anyone who doesn't like it to go complain to Cruddace for ruining 'Nids.
I have to bow down to the person with more expirence, but I've always made my gaming practices based around the denounced and unconventional. I really dont know how to take this whole denouncement of carnifexes, along with the crippled but now potentially more potent hormagaunts. I personally still like this codex, if only because of cheaper gaunts, and being a swarm player, that's my primary focus. Still, I am not sold on some of the new units.
THANK! my god thats the same why i felt! about gw trying to sale trygons, i didnt even bother buying the codex my heart sunk when i saw how much fexs were.
I find that it may be kinda week but the synergy of the army works ok. I beat down space wolves without really having to try in a 2,000 points game. The raveners rock in my opinion with 4 attacks each and 5 each on the charge. That with a bunch of trygons and hive tyrands... maybe some hormogaunts... I rocked them in close combat and laughed at jaws. Give it a shot and try different unit combos. You'll prolly learn to like it if you can get over the death of the carnifex.
i was half expecting tyranids to be the new overpowered space wolves but im glad to see it has its downfalls however im not happy to see the carnifex go down i really doubt many players will use them over like you said trygons been a necron and nid player myself i think its about time the necrons and dark eldar got a tad of attention from GW !
Genarally, I think the new codex makes running a sucessful swarm more easily, Im gonna run the classic warriors,stealers,gaunts, carnifex and tyrants :), Lookin forward for the new Talkin about tyranids :)
Yeah 4th gen was the best this one was crap I stopped collecting tyranids when this gen came out

And... made it more expensive...

yeh but it gets 2 extra attacks and bio plasma is a kickass ranged attack but mostly i agree with u

I find that it may be kinda week but the synergy of the army works ok. I beat down space wolves without really having to try in a 2,000 points game. The raveners rock in my opinion with 4 attacks each and 5 each on the charge. That with a bunch of trygons and hive tyrands... maybe some hormogaunts... I rocked them in close combat and laughed at jaws. Give it a shot and try different unit combos. You'll prolly learn to like it if you can get over the death of the carnifex.

Raveners do that in the old codex... and were still bad...
Auxelli0n 2 years ago
Yeah but now they seem to be more durable. I am finding them to be surprisingly effective against anything except large groups of orks,

i was half expecting tyranids to be the new overpowered space wolves but im glad to see it has its downfalls however im not happy to see the carnifex go down i really doubt many players will use them over like you said trygons been a necron and nid player myself i think its about time the necrons and dark eldar got a tad of attention from GW !
