Brood Nest: 100 red for something that takes almost a minute to build, only reinforces gaunt squads, one at a time, at a price, without being able to be a retreat point for the gaunts on top of being easier to hit than a carnifex, and unable to take more than 2 or 3 hits of anything you'd ever want to hit it with.
*Meanwhile for relic's babies, we get*
A Drop Pod that not only reinforces instantly, and reinforces for free (which the Brood Nest was NERFED TO OBLIVION FOR) it doesn't require a build time, can even be used to disrupt enemies instead (or both if the situation is right, which is even more absurd) and to top it all off in many cases can't even be hit by melee! This is all still failing to mention that instead of fragile little gaunt squads that would need something like this, we're talking about the hardest to kill infantry in the game, which reinforcements mean many times more to! Talk about adding insult to injury.
Wasn't the debate against the Brood Nest that it was being used for base attacks too effectively, or something along those lines, relic? Well correct me if I'm wrong, but that sounds just like something the Drop Pod can do when your Space Marines are about to be forced back. There many different comparisons between the Drop Pod and Brood Nest you can make, each being more insulting to Tyranid players than the last.
I'd be happy if you just let the Brood Nest have 1 single thing that you took away from it back. I'd even say that it would be different yet equal to the Drop Pod if you did (like every single Space Marine player, a.k.a "Everyone But Me Including Relic" is more than happy to say about it right now, ha ha >_>) but the patch has since completely crippled the Brood Nest Global, making it virtually useless to anyone but the best.
