I agree with Pert...60 Gaunts (that's how many attacks in a charge...120 base? do you have that many dice?) would definately hurt...OUCH!!!! but it depends on how they are armed, your playing style, and how you intend to use them on the battle field...I have seen many a well balanced nid army fail as the tactics behind them weren't played out on the table...and even at a full head on assault, rather than a flank attack...keep em in cover till you get near assault range and pounce so you minimize casualties from heavy fire support...this is one wicked way to eat an opponent up in close combat...and Lictors can infiltrate can they not?...very nasty against the rear of a support squad...oh that is so evil...I Like it!
