5 Competitive Units For The Synaptic Nexus Detachment! | Warhammer 40k 10th Edition

[@TheSixMachine]

What are you top 5 Units for the Synaptic Nexus Detachment for the Tyranids, have the changes in the latest Dataslate brought the Nids upto a good place?!

[@jonathanfootitt5773]

Zoanthropes being lead by a Neurotyrant are a monster unit. They can shoot in melee!

[@hezzab3669]

Some other units for synaptic nexus to think about. Genestealers w/ Broodlord is now a synaptic unit so some strats help. Hormagants love the imperatives and now come with strength 4 flavour Norn emessary loves the rules buffs in general, strats make it more flexible. Screamer killers and neurolictors for their battleshock and strats.

[@TheSixMachine]

All good shouts! I love stealers and they nearly replaced the Warriors in this list, and Hormagaunts and Screamer Killers especially work great with the new changes too!

[@91elpiris]

@@TheSixMachine I think especifically in Synaptic warriors are better because they get so much more out of imperatives (GS already hit on 2s and have a 5+ invuln), and spread synapse wider. GS are probably better in invasion and vanguard because they have no innate sustained hits and are better at alpha striking.

I've been having a blast with Synaptic Nexus in Pariah Nexus, a lot came together to make this playstyle fantastic right now

[@humantwist-offcap9514]

Hot take: melee warriors are overhyped. Broodlord plus 10 genestealers is way more violent. Broodlord is a synapse creature now too.

[@TheSixMachine]

Oh I absolutely agree on Genestealers with a Broodlord being fantastic too I really did want to include them, I think both have a place and I'll be honest I haven't done a full run down on mathhammer with 10 stealers and a broodlord vs 6 warriors and a prime, but I think both can definitely earn their keep. I just personally prefer to look of Warriors to stealers so maybe I'm a bit biased! :D

[@DMDuncan37]

Thanks 👍 Top 5 videos for each detachment planned ?

[@TheSixMachine]

Yep that's the plan! Going through each of the various Detachments and picking out 5 (or maybe 6 now...!) Units that I think work well in them! :)

[@CaptainWwowW]

Thoughts on the Tervigon in Synaptic Nexus? Seems slept on, no one mentions her in a list but she's S13 with claws, and a beefy target for Stratagems

[@moviemaniacproducts]

In what rules update did they change the Hive Tyrant's 0 CP stratagem to -1 CP? I cannot find it anywhere.

[@Swornvulkan]

It's on the official website for rules changes :) any army which had a unit that allowed for a free strat is now -1 cp to strats. So 1cp strats are still free but it prevents players from abusing the rule and getting 2cp strats for free

[@TheSixMachine]

Thanks! :)

[@diabrog]

Feels like a missed opertunity to have the Six Machines top six.... Mine are defiantly nurotyrant with zoanthropes, hive tyrants, maliceptors, and parysite of mortrex.

[@TheSixMachine]

I... actually hate that I never thought of that before haha, that may well be the new title of these videos from now on xD

[@diabrog]

@@TheSixMachine well I look forward to them either way haha

[@jorkbartoschkozlowski9097]

Swarmlord? Parasite? Tervigon? Tfex plus IW? More complete plz.

[@jbutfc]

With the name the six machine you’ve missed a trick not having a top 6 units

[@TheSixMachine]

Haha I really did, might have to change up the future videos to be a top 6 rather than a top 5! :D
