Sorry, I think you've missed the point of the game mode.
We are discussing the Synapse mode, which are special in that way that the players will fight alongside AI Tyranid troopers, and special in that aspect that there are NOT equal nr. of players on both teams.
5 vs. 1 means that the teams will autobalance so there are about 5 times as many players on the marine team as the Tyrannid team.
If you want a 1 vs. 1 balance, see the other game modes. I think it's the Tree of life and the Genestealer Cult settings.

But the marines are only outnumbering in terms of players.
There will be about 2 times as many Tyranid units in the game as there are Space Marines, so SM will feel outnumbered, not 'Nids.

And wolf, you'll only be outnumbered by AI gaunts, right, but you'll still have the huge nasties to worry about :twisted: |

The problem is that a Synapse creature can easily match 2 marines.
And if they have AI Gaunts too, SM are going to be wasted, unless there are a lot few players on the 'Nids side.

A possible compromise in order to give the number of tyranids without overwhelming the marines was to nurf the Tyranids to approximately half their codex costs. This makes 1 Tyranid warrior roughly the equal of 1 marine.

plus even if the nids arnt made weaker, it makes the marines work together to win, which is what id like to see

I agree, it's probably the best solution to weaken the synapse creatures a bit, especially the warriors (as they should be the cheap, basic synapse units) Just an additional idea: The 'Nid species available should depend on the number of MARINE players. So if there's an equal number of SM and 'Nids, the SM would face only warriors. Then if 20 marines faced 3 'Nid players, they would all be carnifexes with lots of minions. That would be a cool feature to balance the teams WITHIN THE ROUND instead of waiting to round end before autoteam balance. |
