BFG:R Tyranid Committee
« on: March 29, 2013, 07:37:19 AM »
I was wondering if I could ask permission from the BFG community that is working on BFGR if I could strike up a Tyranids list committee to work on them. I have been working so far with Bessemer on things and there has been some good work done on the Tyranid list a little while back. We will come up with a list, post it when it's done for discussion and vote approval.

The big question here is who has experience working with this fleet?
I don't make the rules, I just think them up and write them down.

Had some playtesting sessions, with some more to come. This is why more people are Needed! Banging out rules is one thing, but practical application trumps theory.

Do you have any experience with 'Nids in BFG, revised or otherwise?

Ive played with and against them before but not extensivly. Lacking a fleet to play with Im not sure Id be much help. Of course if anyone wants to do some testing I can usually find some time for an internet game.

Andrew, you have been the most helpful so far in this whole Tyranid revising endeavor, Bessemer as well.  I would like to make this committee like the Bakka/Corribra one: we come together as a committee to revise the list the best we can, we post the list online for questions, pointers, suggestions, and then we bring it to the whole community to vote. Sound like a good way to do it?

Unfortunatly due to legal complications I cannot say that you can use the battle report generator tool (Vassal) to play Games Workshop games. So I wont.

There are nid players, just not currently active. Why not looking at the painting section and try to find someone with a nid fleet?
