What should Tyranids use against aircraft?

[CanadianGaurd]

Do the 'nids even stand a chance against imperial aircraft?

[Piccolo]

Well the first issue is, are any of your opponents going to spend the money to pay for some FW aircraft?

[CanadianGaurd]

Lol, I AM the opponent and I have spent the money on aircraft yes. I was just curious because a friend of mine uses Tyranids.

[Ardias]

Nids got some flyers, look on FW, i don't its very good though.

[The Collector]

It sounded like CanadianGuard was asking about some sort of Tyranid air defense weapon against Imperial aircraft.

[Hive Custodian]

Using only the standard Codex, Tyranids are helpless against Flyers. The Flyers can appear anywhere they wish and simply out-range Tyranid shooting weapons.

[Piccolo]

the best defense nids have vs flyers is that their enemy now has that many fewer points to spend on ground troops.

[Somebody]

The nids have gargoyles but they are pretty weak. Maybe the Zoanthropes with their phsycic powers?

I would say a Carnifex with 2 Venom Cannons should do it if any... Else... Simply ignore it, and eat up the less amount of enemies on the ground.... and in scenarios, well, flyers cant claim objektivs unless they have landing options....
