Looking at these posts makes me want to cry.  It is going to be an interesting battle to see how the new Bugs fit into the overall scheme.  Warriors with flesh hooks and boneswords look like a viable assault unit.  The T4 4+ SV still makes me sad, but with a few big bugs scattered around the warriors should be able to make combat.

Interesting.  I will have to try this and see what comes of it.

Frag spines and AG sound like a good combo for Fexs. 

I like the idea of a brood of screamer killers with fleet... that could actually be a very substantial threat.

But... Toxin Sacs let you hurt the high toughness models.  If it is on gargoyles, since blinding venom is what they currently have, If you have 15 gargoyles charging, you would get 1.25 wounds thru with straight poison.  With this new blinding venom, if you use it, you would do .21 wounds.  Initial knee jerk reaction is that it's not worth it.

I am going to assume if you give AG to a Hgaunt, the fleets wont stack into something nifty.  Would be nice though.  Not sure why you would use blinding venom though... seems like a small reward for the risk taken.  If regen is truly on a 4+ again... that could be pretty mean.  I wish it was Saturday...

If the rumors are true, http://natfka.blogspot.com/2014/01/someone-with-tyranid-codex.html , it seems that hope is all that remains. Looking more like a kick to the nutz rather then a decent update.  Here is to hoping our book is more balanced then the train wreck it looks like.

After looking at the new Old One Eye, I am kind of sad that they didn't just re-use his existing model.  I feel that anyone that wants to play him should feel the pain and agony of putting together that model.  The tyrant guard models seemed to haven taken alot of fire from the Tau and managed their saves, so I wonder if they have a better save now... but that is probably wish listing.

Red Terror wasn't too bad in my opinion.  I just had to cut away part of his base to make his body fit correctly.  I have yet to paint him, so maybe now I will have reason to.

It was fine by my standards. Not sure if it was just the devise you were using to record the video, but the tall and narrow format was slightly annoying.

Ya know, when I was at Guardian earlier today they had an Old One Eye NIB (white box). $41.25 and they have their 30% off sale ...

 

Just saying.

May God have mercy on the soul of who ever puts that thing together.
