6th Ed Tyranid Codex Initial Thoughts - An Explanation...




I have to say that ever since I heard that Tyranids were going to be redone and I have been super excited to get back into 40k after an almost 8 month break.  I kept thinking how we were finally going to get a book that fixes all the obvious and glaring issues with our current Codex and hopefully bring us back into the fold of relevance (seriously, tournaments see more SISTERS players then Nid ones sometimes lol). I had been ravenously following all the rumors, talking to friends who are “in the know” and everything was pointing towards a great book. Huge point drops for almost everything, “Apex Biomorphs” with some awesome effects, rumors of a Troop Transport bug, fixed Trygon tunnel and a Data Slate that focuses on Genestealers and Lictors. Everything sounded awesome.
