"Game over, man. Gave over!"

You thought Giger's aliens were nasty? Can you imagine how those hapless marines might have felt if they'd been facing down a Tyranid horde instead? The word "hysteria" comes to mind. ;)


As Minotaur's Parasite of Mortrex nears completion, I thought I'd play around with creating an army list featuring him. Note the gargoyle brood that is designed to act as a screening unit.


But it also features a prime and a warrior brood. Why? Just because. :) Warriors are my favorite bugs. I like their looks and versatility. They're expensive points-wise, but I think they're worth it. So try this army list on for size, fellow 'nid fans:



== HQ ==
The Parasite of Mortrex (1) = 160 pts.
Tyranid Prime (1) - Lash Whip And Bonesword, Scything Talons = 95 pts.


== Elites ==
Hive Guard Brood (3) = 150 pts.


== Troops ==
Hormagaunt Brood (17) = 102 pts.
Hormagaunt Brood (17) = 102 pts.
Broodlord Brood (318 pts.)
   Broodlord (1) - Toxin Sacs = 63 pts.
   Genestealer (15) - Toxin Sacs = 255 pts.
Tyranid Warrior Brood (5) - Rending Claws, Scything Talons, AG, Toxin Sacs = 200 pts.


== Fast Attack ==
Gargoyle Brood (18) = 108 pts.


== Heavy Support ==
Tyrannofex (1) - Rupture Cannon, Stinger Salvo, Thorax Swarm - Electroshock Grubs = 265 pts.


== Total ==
1500 pts.


Everlasting kudos to Mike Bergsma for his wonderful (and free) Tyranid Army Creator! :)
