I removed the ripper swarms, Zoanthrope and Carnifex from my first post because there can’t be used in combat patrols

What I should have said is this is all the nid stuff I have what combat patrols list can I make from it

Combat patrols is 40K in 40 mins
any help will be good

In small points games, numbers is the key. I would get 5 warriors (3 warriors will die too quickly, and leave you with no synapse creatures) and then spend the rest on guants, gargoyles and stealers.

As mentioned, you need more warriors than just the 3 since they provide all your synapse. Drop some upgrades from the genestealers and put at least one more warrior in the brood, preferably more.
