NightPredator11 thing about the godzilla army, can be mobbed easly, i am going to have a godzilla army with 5 fexs, 1 tyrant, and everything else good, this is the whole army list: HQ: 1 hive tyrant 1 broodlord Elites: 3 carnifex Troops: 1 termagaunt squad 1 hormagaunt squad 1 ripper squad 3 genestealer squads Fast Attack: 3 winged warrior squads Heavy Support: 2 carnifex 1 zoanthrope squad that is my army, i mostly win, and well. it cost 1000$, god my army cost alot. Hard to judge how well this army is doing when I have no clue what points value this army is and what you've kitted out your Carnies or Zoanthropes...or...anything in this list with.

No, not really. The thing is they're Monstrous Creatures with 4 wounds basic. With upgrades they can have T7, a 2+ save, 5 wounds and the ability to regenerate. The Nids can take 6 of them because if a 'fex is under 115 it's an Elites choice rather than a Heavy. People flip out about having to face these kitted out monstrosities, but if you drop a fex to under 115, it's only CC oriented, and not nearly as scary. Plus, as MC's, they can only move 6" and charge 6", so it's pretty rare for them to get into CC unless you're on a small board or choose to assault them.

I know, but It wouldn't be as noticeable without WS BS S etc. around it. I thought INT would be more easy to understand and I was afraid of spelling it wrong. : P

Well... as a race, the tyranids are a kind, intelligent, peace-loving race, much like the tau in many respects. They have extremely advanced technology. NOT!
Nids are awesome! I love the way GW has redone them... And I played em BEFORE they did! Wow! Now I can just imagine the impure Space Marines being cleansed by the Hive... ... but alas, I no longer have nids anymore... no, I'm stuck with eldar... but still! I love the way the gaunts are so cheap... so they're just cannon-fodder for the enemy by the time the Carnifex gets there... and I like the way they redid the Carnifex as well. Then the Rippers are really good too... they DON'T DIE!!!! which is cool... My praise is unending for tyranids, so I'm gonna stop here and let someone else take over about biovores.

I especially like rippers, so I say more power to ya... but let's seee... you never said the points... are you looking to go to 2150? or is that more.... I'm not a very good eyeballer when it comes to points.
