Road to NOVA: Ron's Tyranid Paintapocalypse

Hey Guys,

Ron here again with another underwhelming painting report.  I've got 3 weeks on the nose to get everything in order.  It's not going to be a pretty finish, but I'll limp across the line with a 3 color minimum model or two.

Flying Monstrous Creatures - What do we do with them?

What's up everyone? After thinking about my first 4 games of 7th Edition, what the prevailing armies are, and after Evan's post on some early tournament data, I realized that the Flying Monstrous Creatures have become one of the stronger aspects of the armies. Yet, they aren't invincible, they can be harmed, but what are the options for doing this? How do we attack them, try to ground them, and what can we do to bring the pain?

Now most of the tactics for bringing down the FMCs will be relegated to the Nids, but I feel that the tactics can be applied to the Demons as well. Actual flyers though are still a different beast that can have similar tactics applied to but still need a bit of finesse.
