As for the resident Tyranid Manager, even he uses a now unloved Nid, being the Mighty Carnifex which appears to be Col.Strakenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06873058921054998269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123071460913314072.post-59908679004548770782010-12-23T10:01:02.822+00:002010-12-23T10:01:02.822+00:00As a regular user of a Kustom Force Field big Mek,...As a regular user of a Kustom Force Field big Mek, I love the Venomthropes. Yeah, it's only a 5+ cover, but like you say, the big creatures aren't going to get a cover save most of the time. Either they will be shot at, or they'll be out of view completely. Stopping such a shot 1/3 of the time can be mega handy.<br /><br />As for the Tyrannofex, I love the idea of them.
