Been having some luck with this combination lately, as it brings the Hierodule nearer to being the "Tyranid Knight" its point cost implies it to be.
I stack it with Catalyst for a 3+/5++/5+++, and -1 to hit from a nearby malanthrope. Onslaught + Hive Commander = 36" move & a 3D6* charge, so it's almost always guaranteed to charge on T1. If nothing else it's the ultimate DISTRACTIONCARNIFEX, being obscenely fast and tanky. Also Imperial Fists can't do shit to it because it's not a VEHICLE.
What I find annoying though is its random damage output.
What do you think about it? It gets a 5+ invulnerable save from turn 1 and wounds don't hurt him as much with degrading ws and attacks.
They use hippo-dermic needles.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
I’m interested to hear how the Harridan is doing in crusher stampede lists, I imagine pretty well with the -1 damage and 5++. Has anyone been using it?
Despite the army wide 5++ now, I’m curious if people are still considering the dermic symbiosis adaptation to protect its stat line? Part of me thinks it’s probably not worth it and it’s a good opportunity to spread the resources around the army a bit more.
Slightly concerning how good a rail gun target it is. It’s pretty much guaranteed to die turn 1 against Tau, even if (by some miracle) it doesn’t, it’s going to die far too quickly to make back its 700 points.
They’re on standbi

Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
Nothing, he was gladiator.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.

Working on 2000 point Nid army and just wanted some words of advice on my list. It’s my first time playing and making the army.
Also I’m considering swapping the broodlord for swarmlord and taking either hive guard, zoans, or the trygon prime out for it.
