new tyranid codex brainstorm -first impressions

the new codex is out, just some thought on it
some extra things i didnt throw in there till do to time

biovores- mines are good large blasts. but only one option of mines now which even though the 0-1 restriction is gone for biovores the mines could be alittle more flexible when it comes to options

trygon - allows units to come out of the tunnel it creates : ) .. pretty awsome

mawloc- looks awsome and is great for targeting objectives if the enemies on it cause it has that strength 6 ap 2 large blast when it arrives : )

there are some really good psychic powers.

venomthropes allows a 5+ cover save to broods around it which isnt nessassary but allows them to stick around longer( nice little option)

yes sorry ur right. i did catch myself after posting it, but good catch. i like hive gaurd they are good and have great guns, strength 8 i believe. ive always loved the tyrant gaurd, they always looked cool and are pretty beastly themselves. : )

@jboweruk but it lost the semplicity and the immediaty of the 4ed (I dont have 6 carnifex... only a Vos and a normal one and a lot of troops, so i think also in the 4 ed)... sorry but i still dislike it ... and the most baddest thing are the models that they dont exist...

@hivemind99999 I disagree, try having 40 Stealers coming at you from the short edge and chewing your troops to bits. I've done it... And had it done to me. You only don't like it because it isn't a cheeseburger with double extra strong cheddar on top to kill all before them. You have to think about how you use the 'nids now that's all. They are a good army, and a lot of good stuff came back.

dude you said tyrant guard are elites? you're thinking hive guard they can shoot over terrain, which is sick. Tyrant guard havent changed though, you take them with a tyrant or swarmlord.
