Default Nidzilla?

Hi just about to start assembling my Godzilla army and had a few questions, what is the link between the rippers and the carnifex, or do people just choose it for its gamiong ability, also in my army what would be better and fit in better, a carnifex, or a broodlord with steelers.

Rippers are the Precursor to all Tyranid organisms. The Ripper seems to be the closest to the "original" Tyranid organism as we can find. Every single 'Nid has evolved from this as it's humble begining. In short, a 'Fex is just a giant, modified Ripper (as is everything else)

the rippers (with leaping, no expects it) are a great way to tie up shootie squads so your big nastys can get where they need to go. do watch out for power fist as rippers do not get the instant death immunity and it kills bases. as for your other question i would go with the broodlord and geans to ad some numbers and spread the enemys fire.
thhe infiltrate is also a nice bonus to get behind fortifications. and for my last bit o info never, ever underestimate the inportance of flesh hooks, nothing creeps and opponent out like a carni crawling up the impassable cliff they thought they were safe on
