Here's hoping they get their "flying" units fixed up a bit. I know that Skyblight was king of the codex for a long time, but Gargoyles, Harpies, and Hive Crones are pretty much benched for the time being and I'd love to put all my winged critters on the table again.

TKIY posted:Now if only they can hit on better than a 4+. Reading it again, I now think that Living Battering Ram adds +1 on to hit rolls in the Fight phase in the turn it charges. The Spore Cysts rule also looks like it has a reference to a 'Shrouding Spores' rule on a different page. That implies Venomthropes work on monsters now. xtothez fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Oct 27, 2017 |

PierreTheMime posted:Let's hope that Enhanced Senses comes back. Can't wait to actually have some biomorph options other than Adrenal Glands and Toxin Sacs. Hitting on a 3+ in range would make the heavy bio-cannons worth it, especially if you can stack it with the -1 to be hit back.

Count me up as nervously excited for whatever the new 'Nid book holds in store for us. The Index is nice, if a bit dull, and lets me feel some level of hope for the upcoming release but I still can't shake the sinking feeling that they'll gently caress up something. I'm currently painting a new Tyrannofex I bought from my local gaming store and it'd totally suck if they increased points costs at random again like in the 5th or 6th ed books.

My Tyranid friend based his army entirely off a sort of "mid-zilla" theme so he has tons of shrikes and a flying hive tyrant and a sprinkling of Old One Eye in a drop pod for extra spiciness He's really hoping that warriors/shrikes are gonna be good in the codex

 Current progress on my nurgle bois. Man they look like poo poo with this lighting, I can assure you the colors look good in person. I'll get some natural light photos with them later How should I base these guys? Not sure how I'll do the eyes and inside of the mouths yet either.

I think more biomorphs is a great start. Tyranids as a crazy modular army is where they should be, and even if this is Fex exclusive I'm happy to at least see it pop up.

I think the Carnifex is the most modular kit followed by the Tyrants and Warriors. If those three models get some if that customizability back, that would be great. Having said that they need to fix a lot of units from the index.

Which units need the most changes? I know the current Tyranid meta seems to be tons of Genestealer hordes, but that's all I'm really aware of. I can't help but wonder if, with 3 troop options existing in the form of both Gant types and Warriors, Stealers themselves might get bumped to Elite or something.

I just assembled the new Start Collecting Eldar box and wow! These models are amazing! The wraithblades with swords are awesome. After loving up and mixing up all the legs/waists when it turns out they're meant to stay together, I said gently caress it and did what I could with the chaos. The result was five unique and awesome stances that makes the entire squad look like elite martial artists in the middle of a sword kata. The Wraithlord is also a phenomenal kit, there are so many cool ways to build the thing. Since I'm going to go for a long-overgrown Eldar statues look for my guys, I did the Wraithlord in the most passive arms-by-sides stance I could and the thing looks gorgeous. It's just got a serenity to it which seems all the more powerful knowing I could have assembled it in another kung fu pose. Just from the vibe of how all those models looked assembled I instantly came up with the lore for the army; they're an Eldar martial arts temple hidden in a rainforest. The Wraithblades are the martial artists proper who are sincerely happy to teach anyone who comes near them their secret combat techniques (via practical demonstration), the Wraithguard with D-Scythes are the janitorial staff for the temple who wander around with their cosmic death-dealing megabrooms atomizing dust/animals/trespassers etc. For sure I'm going to pick up another two boxes; three start collecting boxes, another unit of Wraithguard, and two wave serpents gets me a sick 2000 point army.
