I have 2 changes for unending swarm in my wishlist for december dataslate: 1) Give a leader to homagants so we can actually use the fairly good enhancements we have on unending swarm on our endless multitude models.... Maybe the Winged tyranid Prime can take that role? 2) A tweak the effect of Tervigon "Spawn Termagant" rule... something like "In your Command phase, you can select one friendly termagants. If that unit is within 6" of this model, return up to D3+3 destroyed models to that unit. If the selected Termagant unit is destroyed, return that unit to reserves containing d3+3 models. A termagans unit cannot be selected for this ability more than once per phase." or something like that to keep to some extent the "unending" part of the swarm. You can even allow those termagants to arrive from reserves at 6" from the Tervigon if you want to keep it accurate with the models lore.
33:52 you shouldnt be able to overwatch a failed charge roll. You can only ise the overwatch strat against a successful charge. You have to roll the charge first then the opponent decides to shoot at the start or the end of the charge move
Again same mistake; once the maleceptor died the eight bound could not have piled into the warriors. Surprised that such a basic rule was mistaken on two critical occasions.
I am a bit of a newb and want to start tyranids. All models look coold. Especially the monsters. Where should I start besides the starter box? Anyone able to recommend a list to aim for?
the following appear as a core in basicly any list at the moment: 1 neurotyrant, 1 hive tyrant (on foot), 2 maleceptors, 1 exocrine, 1 tyrannofex with rupture cannon, 1 biovore, 2 lictors, 1 neurolictor. + 10 hormagants/gargoyles. You can fit those in any detachment so i think those are good starters to get :)
The Tyranid half of the Leviathan box is a nice foundation. It'll take some time to get a full army together for any specific list, so I'd recommend starting with collecting the models you like the look of.
May or may not be watching this at work rn
Angron was not eligible to activate, as he didn't charge.
Did fight phase change? Before you could only pile in if you charged or are engaged.
Wait angron was not eligeable to pile in, he did not charge

Can't you already do number 1 as prime can lead gargoyles which are endless multitude?
I didn't see the blood roll at the beginning.
Is Calvin running the Rhino+MOE+Zerker combo??? Scandalous.
That is my favorite combo with 2 units of 5 berzerkers and 2 MOEs inside 1 rhino

What in God's name were those sixes! I never get that many in a row ever!!!

Big swing and key moment with Angron cheating and killing Swarmlord.
Both of my armies!

Probably start with Combat Patrol or any of the new recent boxes they've brought out.
