Topic: 1500 pt. Nid List, First Game

[Mr.BoneSaw]

Well, I'm ready for my first game with my Nids. My first game is against Necrons and is more of a warm up game for a multi-player game I will be playing soon. I hope to keep my Nids more cc oriented as I have a IG and Marines army, so I want my nids to focus on slicing and dicing for the most part.

Well, I don't know if you have enough models to do it, but lose the upgrades to the genestealers and make them squads of 10. HT looks alright, but usually sniperants aren't the greatest. I don't think you need EC on the broodlord, but keep it on his retinue which should be buffed up to 8 genestealers. Also you can drop acid maw and toxin sacs from the stealers. Warriors look okay, even though I'm not a big fan of CC warriors.

The list should perform reasonably as is, but will do better if you can change it. I don't know how your opponent will be using his Necrons, but his destroyer will be high-priority targets as well as a monolith.
