Nope sorry Heretic. I live many hours away from there.
Also, it is either a hand flamer or one of those melta pistol niether of witch you can actually use anymore. I think for game purpose he would have a twohanded flamer and a power axe. So he wouldn't get the extra attack for dual wielding.

tiki_boyX2 Isis47470 Hi every one Merry Christmass and Happy Holidays ! Hope every ones holiday was good for them. 3nodding Good to see new faces around here, welcome to the Guild FLCL ! I am a tyranids player my self. Being you say you have a Brood lord get your self a whole mess of Genestealers....mwahaha those are so nasty. If you have one carifex get another, evry one just loves the bug-zillas on the field. Plus they act like bomb magnets letting your genestealers clean up the rest of the crunchys on the field. Gaunts are ok but they meant to die, they really only are good for locking your enemy in CC while the rest of your bugs get into possistion. Kinda like Tau gundrones, dump them infront of the expensive units. wink I Beg to Disagree that Horma Gaunts are just Fodder and for Tying up Assaults. I've Seen them do many a nasty things when coming In very large Numbers. Same with Gundrones, If a Group of them is taken as a Deepstriking unit you can Deepstrike them behind something Like a Devastators Squad Or some other Kind of Annoying Squad like that, and Have them unload their Carbine, Because once they take that single Casualty that unit Can get pinned. But then again, that's all just me. mrgreen Yay! Im getting internet this weekend I'll be back to normal posting very soon. cool While I do have Tyranids, I also Play Tau. Marines of corse being my first and favorite army. I didn't say they where fodder... I said they are meant to die. Flamers, heavy bolters, bolters on rapidfire or any thing with a template makes short work of them... while in a large group they are effective against lightly armored troops and serve well as target priority buffers. Unless your enemy is fighting with a lot of tanks, normal troops have to get past the gaunts before they get to the big bugs. The same tactic works with gundrones. Although the sheer mass of units at full size tends to turn them into bomb magnets. @ FLCL: What do you mean about the sprues and infestation markers ? Are you talking about the Battle For Macragge or the battle box ? Because the Macragge bugs are nothing like the actual battle box bugs.

Well yes, lots of tanks would make very short work of them along with flamers...then again I suppose it also depnds on our strategy out look possibly, being an Eldar player I'm used to using very conservative tactics and precision attacks and assaults...and well I suppose 'nids just don't work in quite that same way. and since I'm posting I found this cool pic. mrgreen http://coolminiornot.com/index/whatc/SF/whatm/GW/id/140888

I have a new warped concept! I made a new titan! Its a tau titan, with weapons equal in size to those mounted on the warhound model. guess what the rail guns got? two sets of blast and long ranged to top it off, and theres three barrels on each arm to spew 3 ordanace templets of Str10 AP 1 death to two units a turn. then theres 4 mega gatling long ranged missile pods.
It ends up at a mere 1485 pts.

my question is, What am I supposed to do with them?
Are they for terrain or do they serve a purpose?

sekchi-toguchi FLCLfan89 my question is, What am I supposed to do with them? Are they for terrain or do they serve a purpose? GW normaly doesnt put terrain in a normal box set Hmm I agree. I have gotten those sprues on the Battle for Macragge but not in the normal box set. I beilieve they are use for special missions.
