GSC + Nids


PumpkinHead

Recommended Posts

I am spit balling here and don't have much experience in the competitive world for 8th edition. I am looking for feedback and thoughts. I took the twisted helix because it helps in all rounds of the game where as 4AE only helps with the first round of charges. I get rerolls to charge for the GSC so an 8 inch charge with the clamivous with rerolls makes like 62 %chance. I was kind of thinking first round the Nids genestealers can do their sling shot thing and if opportunity is there, GSC first turn charge, or hold them back for a solid 2nd round of charges as well. I have some ok shooting to try and clear chaf. Let me know what I am missing or need to be aware of. Yes I know the swarmlord will stick out like a sore thumb and if I can't hide him well he will die first thing, but I have to give it a shot.
