Hive Tyrant: Once at level 8, turn on his shield and build the 3 Hive Guards and send him in.
They are worth using as “filler” for your army and do hurt things when upgraded.Īttack: Upgrade all warriors with melee, set to assault, and march them inīloodlord: Once at level 8, build the 8 Genstealer command squad and set Lictors to autobuild Hivemind: Drop those Hormagaunts once the 3rd of 3 techs is researched for all Gaunts. That might be less if you didn’t get a slag pit on your map. Like over +200 by the time you’re headed to tier 2. Upgrade Gaunts, Lictors and Genestealers as much as can be done at this tierĪs a note: by the time this is happening, you can hit 680R in a few seconds because you’re intake will be pretty insane. Once all the upgrades are done, recruit both command units, and build 2x Warrior squads, fully reenforceīuy the first increased economic intake technology If not, start into upgrading every Chimney one time I make these a priority if they happen to be around. Once tier 1 is done, you can go find a slag pit if you have one, and harvest the huge requisition bonus they give. I will typically be capping and building Spore Chimneys into this phase. Phase 2 – Preparing The Swarm (2:30 – 4:00) HQ: research tier 1, and grab the first Genestealer adaptation tech Do this until you have 5 or so points captured and posts built Once the builders get done doing their thing, you will have some dead-time here where your Rippers are waiting for the Genestealers to cap the points so they can build Spore Chimneys on them. Hivemind: 2x Genestealers, each set to cap 1/2 the forward portion of the map, nearest first HQ: recruit another builder to build whichever barracks didn’t get built in the previous step Phase 1 – Establish The Hive (0:00 – 2:00)īuilder set to reenforce to full squad size, and build either barracks It’s key to understanding how nasty the Tyranids can be. The Hivemind is eternal, and since it uses it’s own special resource (power), is largely independent of the build order, but nevertheless important. It’s like having an invisible Farseer at my disposal who can never die. It pains me to say it, but the Tyranids have helped me tremendously in my Micro-Managing abilities with the Hivemind.
