2K Tyranids

So it looks like 2K is now the new norm for competitive 40K here in these parts. Certainly some armies get a lot more bang for the buck at 2K like Space Marines over Eldar @ 2K but what are you going to do? The key here is not just having a 1750 list and adding on some more models and upgrades to bring it to 2K- might as well just play 1750 in terms of being efficient. 2K needs to be designed from the ground up.


I’ve got my 2K list done and ready, all the models acquired and soon to be painted, WIP pictures enclosed. Somewhat different then my 1750 list for those interested- here is what is included:

== HQ ==
Tervigon (1) - Stinger Salvo, Toxin Sacs, Cat = 185 pts.
Tervigon (1) - Stinger Salvo, Toxin Sacs, Cat = 185 pts.
== Elites ==
Hive Guard Brood (3) = 150 pts.
Venomthrope Brood (3) = 165 pts.
The Doom Of Malan'tai Brood (150 pts.)
The Doom Of Malan'tai (1) = 90 pts.
Mycetic Spore (1) - Venom Cannon = 60 pts.
== Troops ==
Tervigon (1) - Stinger Salvo, Toxin Sacs, Cat = 185 pts.
Tervigon (1) - Stinger Salvo, Toxin Sacs, Cat = 185 pts.
Termagant Brood (11) - Fleshborer = 55 pts.
Termagant Brood (10) - Fleshborer = 50 pts.
== Fast Attack ==
Spore Mine Brood (3) = 30 pts.
Spore Mine Brood (3) = 30 pts.
== Heavy Support ==
Trygon (1) - AG, Instinctive Behaviour - Feed = 210 pts.
Trygon (1) - AG, Instinctive Behaviour - Feed = 210 pts.
Trygon (1) - AG, Instinctive Behaviour - Feed = 210 pts.

DOM could be swapped from some Y-stealers in terms of its use, and the spore mines actually are key in the list and not just another Fritz spore mine obsession. More on that in the next post…
