i've had a number people who have seriously frowned upon such a ploy simply because it's a bit one-sided! any other unit or such that comes within 1" of an enemy model when deep striking simply dies... spore mines take stuff with them however!!!

basically it's the age old, 'but why can't i have something similar to balance your precision-guided living bombs?!'

i simply look at it as, 'well, this will teach you not to bunch up so much when fighting tyranids now won't it?!!'

cheers!
