The white blood cells can't do their jobs if the are so slow and trip over their own feet all the time.

If your opponent has a break away unit, you may be hard pressed to get it if you can't shoot it down, as you might have to redirect your army.<br /><br />Foodie, you've got the idea. Smaller independent cells work well. I always try and make my lists to operate in half at least. Genestealers really are white blood cells.TheGraveMindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02202256201375802641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-68926011710286579102011-03-28T16:11:20.020-04:002011-03-28T16:11:20.020-04:00Om nom nom... tasty imperium...
You speak the tru...Om nom nom... tasty imperium...<br /><br />You speak the truth, brood brother. In this latest book especially, Nids developed a huge sense of necessary Synergy. <br /><br />To expand on this idea, I tend to run multiple smaller cells, all with different jobs. I have a more defensive cell, an aggressive cell, and a 2nd aggressive cell (on wings for speed). Then I have a few white blood cells thrown in to fight any infections that pop up (Lictors, Genestealers, and other independent units).<br /><br />Even with this slightly different take, the army is still made up of cells that perform their job to make the organism as a whole work.<br /><br />Wee.Anonymous Foodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14362829012549159278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-45833895325613200062011-03-28T13:38:36.188-04:002011-03-28T13:38:36.188-04:00This is a really great example, Gravemind.

I'm just now learning some of these concepts and this helps reinforce it.<br /><br />It's funny how people think; I was talking with buddy, and I said the Bugs are a very interconnected army to play.<br /><br />But he cites that as a weakness. I'm not sure I agree at all.<br /><br />I'm with you on this one - BrentBrenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07426628265866457542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-13436953517181451832011-03-28T12:21:20.140-04:002011-03-28T12:21:20.140-04:00Oh, tyranid orgaNIsm.
