I've made a final decision on my Tyranid list...
I warn you in advance it is not particularly optimised. It's more an optimised core with some stuff I want to convert tacked on top.
The Mawloc/Trygon model I have is just begging to be turned into a Swarmlord. Which still leaves me with my standard Hive Tyrant model to use later should I get fed up with my 400+ point 'Death-Star' unit never reaching combat.
On a side note it's not (imho) possible to do a cool looking Tervigon conversion on a 60mm base, so it looks like I'm going to have to acquire a couple of those big oval bases that the aforementioned Mawloc/Trygon comes with.
So with the rationalisations out of the way, here's the list.

As usual any constructive criticism will be gratefully received, if possibly (in this case) ignored and filed away for when I get all competitive again ;-)
