ELITES
2x Zoanthrope Brood
Malanthrope
TROOPS
30x Termagaunts
Tervigon
FAST ATTACK
Harpy
Hive Crone
Dimacheron
HEAVY SUPPORT
Mawlok (formerly a carnifex)
Exocrine
Trygon
1750 points, Eight monstrous creatures I admit I was giggling a bit making this list.
Edited to squeeze in more MC madness

What's a Dimacheron? Forgeworld jigger?
Does that make 4 FMC's? I wouldn't call that silly at all! What out for my lootas though :-) S7 AP4 10-30 shots :-P Harpies don't like that.

It is the big creature from FW. Has a fair number of interesting attacks with different profiles. Frontline did a review when the FW book dropped. Falls under the almost good enough to be competitive. I think the only big issue is that it is a little slow and doesn't have an invul save. Blenders stuff up good though.

Re: Ben's utterly insane Tyranid Highlanders
He messed up the leaping thing, I'm fairly certain. A Dimacheron may Leap in the move or assault phase, and when doing so, ignore terrain. So, if you are in cover I can still get my full 2D6 charge range, with rerolls from fleet. Here's the rules for the big guy on my googledrive:

I really really like this guy and am almost positive he will wreck face.

Re: Ben's utterly insane Tyranid Highlanders
After reading the actual rule it does seem pretty amazing. Lots of ID attacks and stuff. Nasty!

I'm having to wrack my brain to think if I can even field anything that could handle a circus like that. So many vectors I have to worry about: Mark and his ObjSec, this Kaiju Invasion...

Yeah, that's a ton of MCs... And I am in same boat as to how I am going to handle that...
It's very scary thought, and that .gif quite accurately describes it haha
