This was really helpful. Made me join the channel! I am new to Tyranids and your content is already impacting my play. Thanks.

Perfect watch before i get my shit rocked by some Tau

Thanks for the great content you put out it has helped me build my list, always wanted a nid force and have now settled on a list i like that fits 3 Norm Emissary's

And everyone should probably windmill slam 3 haruspex into every army

11:17 anyone who sees this take a look at this deployment, how much room do models have coming in from board edge on this deployment, then compare it to all the other deployments. It made me release, put as much stuff as you can into reserves on this one! Then just put models on board to claim realestate!! It blew my mind! It works so well!

10:04 so meny units i want to use but they just get clear in 1 round if shooting so easily. Only thing we got are acouple of big bugs, and even then they have to get close leaving your opponent with first shot.

I come from Battletech where you have at most 12 Models on the board at a time. So seeing an army that runs off of 10x that many easily, alongside a variety of gameplay makes me incredibly interested.

Cool vid. Any recommendations as to doing this with armies that lack dedicated "chaff" units? I'm starting to get into 40k with an Iron Hands army. How do you make decisions as to what you want to move block with when your army is more elite?

The HT is one of the best support models in the game. both of its auras provide such great bonuses! I love em Also i prefere mine with talons over the v.cannon. I my opion the v.cannon just is not even a gun worth firing most of the time, meanwhile the extra attacks are turning the HT into a better counter charger and a more usefull endgame threat

I haven't played since like 3rd edition but looking at the datasheets the big monsters look way more durable now. I remember my carnifex and hive tyrant just getting shredded by lasguns because the saves were 4+ with 5+ invuln

the discord link in the description is labeled invalid for me ?

Love these tactics videos, I started a nid army recently and these have been very useful in improving my strategy

4th and 5th ed it was ripper swarms

I played 3rd and 4th edition. I really liked playing a swarm army, and the hive node mutations made it more reliable. It was fun to play, even though my win record was about 50/50. After 4th, they just went too much into relying on monstrous creatures. That combined with a gaming group too skewed towards competitive players made me give up the game

I love my bugs. I think it has the most versatile list of units both in terms of different models and rules. You can run 10 lone ops, 9 Infiltrate, and 7 fights first in one army. OR giant monsters, or swarm, or deep strikers. The only major weakness is that we have very few leader-unit combos.

I really like the way you explain your gameplay, great video!

Hey have you guys done a crusade video about tyranids yet? I'm really curious to see how things change in your listbuilding and playstyle for Crusade. Also, would love to hear how you handle 1000, or 3000 point games on Nids, since most of your videos cover 2000 points.

Hey man! Really informative video, I think one thing that would be nice is if there were arrows put onto slides for indicating which direction a unit plans to move, like for example the carnifexes I imagine plan to push that bottom edge but just to be 100% clear on what your intentions with that unit is. Love the content man keep its up!

please more of those videos! im a beginner and still need to learn all the tricks with tyranids

I very much appriciated this video. As a Tyranid player than currently often faces other Tyranids, getting the weaknesses layed out like this is helpful, especially because i m playing Necrons tomorrow vs Crusher Stampede.

I have not felt like Tnids are squishy at all. They've been very hard to kill for me

Another great Tyranids tactical walkthrough!

I wish with just how random sitw is it did more, like if a unit failed sitw and only sitw they get -1 to hit or -1 to advance and charge, something

Tyranids have a lot of strengths. They're like Terrans, in that they're an army of heavily specialized units that all have to do the job they were made for if you want to get anywhere. Most of the units in the army are making saves 1-2 points off of where they should be, so you need to be playing both aggressively and also incredibly safely. If you mess up and lose your lictors/genestealers in turns 1-2 without effectively blocking and trading up, you're *really* in the soup... This is the army that needs to discover how sticky objectives work the most desperately lol

I do double-melee on my tyrant because I can’t be trusted to let him peek safely lol

When using SITW and figuring out target priority for the Smothering shadow strat from synapticnexus, who decides order of battle-shock for units or is it treated as happening at the same time and pick target after all rolls?

Whoop whoop!

This format is great. Really like the cross analysis with Thousand Sons. Great use of the map to show position. Like the win conditions on primary. If you ever run out of Tyranid content could do some Dark Angles, Death Guard, Thousand Sons, or World Eaters. Seems like you guys have plenty of armies across the team for Wednesday Night.

thanks for the game ! pushing me back into 40k with tyranids haha

Hi guys just started into the hobby currently working on a bug army. The content is very helpful to learning the different units and how to use them. Watch every live stream on a Thursday. If possible could you maybe do a video or guide me to where I can properly learn terminology for games and how the work in games?

Good lord, Ahriman is a tenacious bastard! Making like 10 saves in a row, when all of them are a real threat of killing him straight up. Harrowing to watch lmao

Big guns lets monsters shoot "non-big gun" units they're in engagement with, so the tyrannofex could have hit the guy hacking away at his hind legs with the spine banks. It wouldn't have let the Maleceptor shoot the terminators punching him though, since you can't fire blast weapons into combats where you have units involved lol

Every time I see someone recommend Genestealers over Lictors I have to remind myself that they're not *wrong*, just misguided. The dollar to points on the bastards, though, definitely excuses choosing something else as your vanguard critter lol

If we're looking at all the 100-300pts threats at ranged, I honestly think 6 hive guard should have been considered. Their guns are fantastic at plowing into their preferred targets, and their overwatch threat levels are tremendous

VRLs with the new heroic intervention shenanigans are great to trap on objectives for destruction and counter scoring

Question for my fellow hive node: how many gargoyle flocks do you recommend for an invasion fleet? I'm current two 10 mans, one starting on board and one 10 man in deep strike. But I kinda really want to run a full 6 man Zoanthrope block, and that 85 points would get me to that 100 points, and I also want to get a 3 man of Raveners too. For context my list has a ground tyrant, same as yours, a Neurotyrant+3 Zoanthropes, 2x10 gargoyle flocks, OOE+1 Carnifex, rupture tyrannofex, lictor, Broodlord and a 10 man genestealers, 2x Maleceptors, Deathleaper, Biovore, And An Exocrine

Me here owning three of every unit almost and still watching this lol. Ps eBay has saved me a lot of money

First step learn to print an army lol. But seriously play what is fun

Super dope! Building some harlequins while I catch up on this one. Cheers fellows!

Impossible to follow if your only listening 🙄 and neuroloctor reactive battle shock is difficult to get off, I think a bit overrated

For the 1k crusade games I've been playing I usually keep two 10-man term units with devourers orbiting him, for 40 shots of STR4 lethals helping to bodyguard him. Basically every turn of the game he's regrowing termagants with the free Command Point on my turn lol Naturally he has the FNP Enhancement stapled to him, and in 5 more XP he'll actually have Lone OP from a crusade relic, which is hilarious

Thanks so much for these videos! I just started really getting excited about what my tyrant can do recently, just the other day I charged him on turn 3 to help save my Norn Emissary from the Avatar of Kaine on center. I was scared to risk him like that but it paid off! Anyway, I think I will be excited to jump in on that list reviewing action...

Been playing Nids for a few months and finally got enough big bugs to try Crusher out. I haven’t been this excited for a while. I think Crusher will fit my playstyle the best of all Detachments.

Fisrt awesome vid!You got me confuze a bit here with the use of the free cp, "use it(agressively)in your turn ,don't use it in your turn you don't get it back"? I was also woundering about the will of the hive mind and strats like invisible hunter in vanguard. It says: up to two va guard units.... does both units needs to be in the 12" aura to work. ex 2 mawlocs if I just have one in the aura, the strat trigger and I can pick-up another vanguard unit thats not in the aura?thx

Since you were going all out like this you could've at least shown us numbers for all of the Tyrannofex data sheets, also you kinda ommited it has a second gun.

Running 3 mawloks because why not
