Guest Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Daemon FMCs are around 300 points. Of course they're better than FMCs are are close to half the cost. Since 4-5 FMCs for Daemons are 1100-1500 points there isn't anything left after you deal with those. The 5 Tyranid FMCs are coming in at about 900 points, and then there's 3-5 other T6 4-6W MCs and another 60-100 infantry models to deal with. These really are 2 different builds. Apples/Oranges Just to add, the tyranids do have access to the questionable escalation Harridan. On paper, it does look pretty mean, even if somewhat less impressive on paper than the other units in escalation. -Pax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AscentStudios Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Pax, FWIW, Escalation is so widely lambasted (from what I'm hearing from players and the interwebz) that I don't know it's really worth considering as an extension of any codex. I may be butthurt about the new bug codex, but far more folks are butthurt about superheavy anything in regular games of 40k :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashneeb Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Well, I haven't done it since they updated them for sixth. They were ultra-dumb in fifth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
