Default Re: What to do if you're facing anti nids?

sadly chaos your list seems very balanced all around. i ran a swarm nid army for a few years and the trick is to live with the losses you will get in combat. my list in the battle was designed to be an all around functional list that i can you is real battles on the table. a real anti-nids list would be a imp guard army tooled to the extreme with autoguns and mortars. the firing line would be insane. but the way your list is set up you make your opponent choose between all the great targets you give him. nobody can kill 100+ nids in one turn. the carnifexs are big and nasty, both dangerous shooting and in cc. the flytyrant will shred whatever it flys into as well. and the brood lord is a sneaky bastard period. hormagaunts and genestealers are both a threat, and you have tooled out your troop choices with nothing but. the only problem i see in are battle is the fact that i'm gonna make you charge me in cover. and without flesh hooks i go first. can a 16 squad of hormagaunts survive a turn of shooting then a round of combat before they get to lay there claws in.

basically i wouldn't change a thing in your list. i like it. its a very functional list against any army.
