For those of your whom I practice with you are abundantly clear of what my lists are this year, why I am playing them and even how I play them. For the rest of you here is the three lists I am playing with this tournament season and what tournaments I plan on bringing them to. Feel free to ask questions and if you still don't get it; don't be shy play a game with me! I'm always looking for practice.
1850 Tyranids (NOVA Open, NOVA Invitational)
Swarmlord w/ tyrant guard
Tervigon- 3 powers, crushing claws, adrenal glands
8 ymgaryls
Doom w/ pod
Deathleaper
10 termagants

20 Gargoyles- toxin sacs

The idea behind my Tyranid is not so much to kill stuff so much as it is to be rock solid, have very limited bad matchups and be extremely good at winning games even if it isn't ever by much. To me it is extremely solid for the NOVA format so it seems like a no brainer to take it there.

3 warwalkers w/ 2 bright lances

Although spammier than what I usually like to take; this army actually have a lot of diversity and alot of different tools. Deceptively durable to all forms of shooting and the fastest army I have ever seens lends alot of unique opportunity. If need be I can literally hide for 4 turns against most armies and it actually has a scary amount of firepower when I decide that something absolutely has to die. I don't know what to expect at Da Boyz including terrain so as an army that literally makes its own terrain, its a solid choice.

1850 Space Marines w GK Allies (just farting around)
Librarian
10 Scouts- sniper rifles

Landspeeder Storm
Landspeeder Storm
Storm Raven-w/ las cannon, multi melta
Storm Raven w/ assault cannon, multi melta, hurricane bolters
Storm Raven w/ assault cannon, multi melta, hurricane bolters
Inquisitor w/ psyker level 1, power armor
5 Strike Knights w/ psycannon
Storm Raven w/ heavy bolter, assault cannon, hurricane bolters, psy bolts
I don't know WTF I was thinking here to be honest. I make TONS of lists everyday and for some reason this struck a chord as good to me. Alot of utility and through play testing I have grown to absolutely love landspeeder storms. The scouts can all combat squad meaning that especially with camo cloaks it is extremely difficult to table the army and the troops are many times more durable than the standard space marine.With psychic communion getting the ravens on is super easy and if there is not much anti air, I can load the ravens up with scouts. My love for this list is how useless it looks until you really either think about, play with it, or play against it. Than you have one of those Ooooohhhhh moments.
