Stand ins

hello im not sure how much you guys know about the new nid dex but the standard gaunt is now the one with the fleshborer. Almost all of the gaunts i own (other then the hormagaunts) are built with spine fists. Is it ok with you guys if i use the the gaunts as if they all have fleshborers? i would REALLY rather not tear apart over 70 gaunts to put on new arms

When I first read that Fleshborers are the new standard.... the first thing I thought of was your painted tyranid army. lol. Then I realized how many pissed off Tyranid players there are going to be... nice one, GW.

Personally I don't care.


Codex: Tyranids, 6th edition. All gaunts come with Devourers standard.

randy I don't even know what a spine fist or a fleshborer looks like so you could pretty much tell me whatever you want and I'll probably believe it

"Fleshborers are strength 10 ap1 lance, melta, rending, twin-linked, assault 20 at 72"... it's in the damn codex dude"

Yeah Randy it will be fine. The new dex gave me many disappointment and then some great new peices. But I read the dex and no without number for the termagaunts. Can't wait to try a game with the new dex.

yeah, when dealing with anything non-imperial, I'm 99% of the time taking my opponents word for what everything is anyways.. I don't know the difference between what most weapons look like unless I use'em. I got no problem with standins.

I dont know the differnce between the different bio bits anyway

The main thing is for the important stuff to be properly represented.

I don't see that as a problem, no. Spinefists and fleshborers could make sense to shoot the same thing. As long as it was the same for all guns, it would be cool.
