I'm finally getting around to publishing pictures of my Tyranid army. I really love the way this army turned out. The models look like some kind of vicious bugs from a desert planet, ready to devour their foes. I've had a couple of chances to play with the army in tournaments and both times I enjoyed the way the army plays out, although I have had some misgivings regarding the lack of invulnerable saves in close combat and the disadvantage the Fearless rule. I'll have to vent about this another time.
I recently played Eldar against this Tyranid army (in Ty's hands) and it wasn't pleasant. Ty is a master with Tyranids and he composed a force that made quick work of me (2 Tervigons, 3x2 Hive Guard, 2x7 Genestealers, 6 Raveners, and 2 Trygons = 1500 pts). I was basically dead after two turns. I made some strategic mistakes, placing my war walkers in advanced positions, but I wanted to experiment.
In other 40K news, I'm spending a little more free time painting additional models. And I should have new stuff (and other eldar models) to show soon. Stay tuned!
