Space Marines and tyranids in the warhammer boardgame?
At the moment my friend has a tyranid army and I just have the basic assault on black reach one. I prefer to use the space marine army but before I start getting more space marine units, are the space marines any good against tyranids? If so, what are some strategies I could use. If they are bad against tyranids, what army is actually good against them?
I feel it depends on your friend. If he just makes a nid army then ya the space marines can be extremely effective, but if he builds his army to fight marines you are in trouble. What I recommend for fighting nids is to get a lot of assault marines and devastators. Also put heavy weapons in your tactical squads, break them into combat squads, and have the a team with the heavy weapon and a team with a flamer and sargent. then you basically form two groups your shooty group that will stay in them back and give support and your punchy group that will charge the nids last second or just take the charge. I recommend putting your assault marines behind the main line and have them jump were they are needed most. Terminators and sternguard veterans are also really good since they are decent in close combat and are great at shooting.
