Re: Tyranid Warriors can retreat and reinforce and are generally more mobile
[quote name="FABIO"][quote name="Ethan Steele"]Whereas when your Carnifex gets dinged he's dinged forever unless you waddle him back to base to slowly regen up (or bring a Zoanthrope) Tyranid Warrior basic weapons are also power weapons so they wipe the floor with other heavy infantry, you don't have to get the adrenal glands unless you need them for soft countering some vehicles. Basically they add some muscle and hitpoints to your hordes early on, so the answer to "why would I build them" is pretty much "same reason you would before" unless you only built them for the synapse (you suck if you did that)[/quote] Massed termagaunts with venom cannon synapse were pretty nasty! See? Basic tyranid warriors have power weapons! I never would have known that! It's a game within a game figuring all this stuff out! So soft countering vehicles is the only reason to pay an extra 200 resources? That...doesn't seem worth it. Especially when venom cannon warriors are available as a hard counter at the same tier. I'm not sure if it's basic whining or not but the boards' consensus is [/quote]
