Since the dark early days of 1999, I've played tyranids sincethat summer.. It has always been my dream to field a very small elite army, that wasn't considered nidzilla since the 4th edition dex.

2k even.

I hope you all like. It has 4 troop choices.. easy to kill, 2 mc's, and 2 tank killers.. I think it'll be fun to play, although not very competitive. I chose the deathspitters on the spores.. so i can kill transports a bit easier, or hope. I hope to pop the transports.. then shoot them with my warriors, which is why i have the deathspitters.

C&C welcome. I don't like the little guys at all now, so don't suggest them. for 2.5k I'll probably take another trygon prime with adrenal glands, and 2 squads of 20 guys in pods probably.

I know you're calling this an elite list but... 2 trygons? That's kinda cheesy, dude. Yeah it's 'elite' but there is a difference between elite and just plan lame. Maybe a Mawloc and a trygon... but even that is pushing it.
Side note: Ignore this if you play against peeps running equally as ridiculous lists.. i.e. 2 land raiders...

I only want to run it, because I believe in the rule of 2's. That's all.

Revised 2k.

so almost half my points in troops, not bad.

I just hope my lictors come in and survive haha. If they don't they're kind of null. Everything deepstrikes, and my stealers outflank. The broodlord is for a bit of extra punch. 2k even. I put the deathspitters on my alpha for a bit of more dakka.

I was going to originally run a tyrant, with hive command and 2 tyrant guard.. but well, they're slow and will probably die early on.

I agree 100%, two is always better then one, especially with trygons. Double your chances at getting one into combat and you force your opponent to choose what unit to sacrifice to the remaining trygon because odds are they cant kill both in one turn :) and if they try they will probably fail and you will then have two trygons to mess then up with. Which is still better then one. Nice list to by the way, but drop the spore on the stealers and give them a Brood lord and outflank instead with them
