GAMES WORKSHOP 99120106042" Tyranid Hive Tyrant/The Swarmlord Plastic Kit

Product Information

Use this Stratagem at the start of the Morale phase. Select one enemy unit (excluding VEHICLE units) within Engagement Range of a LASH WHIP or TOXIC LASHES unit from your army. Until the end of the phase: Assault weapons fire so rapidly or indiscriminately that they can be shot from the hip as warriors dash forwards into combat. Use this Stratagem in any phase, when a < HIVE FLEET> BEHEMOTH GORGON HYDRA JORMUNGANDR KRAKEN KRONOS LEVIATHAN HIVE TYRANT model from your army is destroyed by an enemy unit. Until the end of the battle: Though they are formidable fighters in their own right, it is the Tyranid Warriors’ role as the synaptic lynchpins of the swarm that makes them truly deadly. Tyranid Warriors are psychic resonators for the unwavering will of the Hive Mind and some of the more common conduits used to exert control over the less receptive creatures of the hive fleets. As such, Tyranid Warriors form a vital link in the Tyranid swarm, acting as relays and amplifiers through which Hive Tyrants issue their commands. So crucial is this role to a hive fleet’s efforts to defeat a prey world’s defenders that each Hive Tyrant is invariably accompanied by several broods of Tyranid Warriors cultured from its very own flesh – the better to enhance the psychic link throughout the swarm. This is not to imply that Tyranid Warriors are merely drones, for each is instinctively capable of assessing local

To manifest the psychic power, you must first pass a Psychic test. The opposing player can then select one of their PSYKER units that is within 24" of the PSYKER unit attempting to manifest the power and attempt to deny that power before its effects are resolved by passing a Deny the Witch test. If that MONSTER model has the HORNED CHITIN keyword, on a 2-4, that enemy unit suffers 3 mortal wounds; on a 5+, that enemy unit suffers D3+3 mortal wounds.

Hive Fleet Adaptations: Rather than take one of the ‘big 6’ Hive Fleets, choose two rules from this section to make your own. I’ve chosen Prey-sight (seen above – Ed.) and Metamorphic Regrowth, which lets all models in your army heal a wound at the start of your turn! Each time a model in that unit (excluding TITANIC models) would lose a wound, roll one D6: on a 5+, that wound is not lost. Through its synaptic conduits, the Hive Mind reaches out to infuse the organisms under its control, invigorating their metabolisms with such unnatural vitality that they can ignore the most grievous of wounds. Malediction: Paroxysm has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one enemy unit within Synaptic Link range of this PSYKER or one enemy unit within 18" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase: A shadow is looming over Warhammer-Community.com, and the chittering can only mean one thing – the Tyranids are on their way. Teeming hordes of fanged horrors will soon descend, and alongside their spores, claws, and biological weapons, they’re bringing a brand new codex with them.

When you select a PSYKER unit to manifest psychic powers, you select one psychic power that unit knows and attempt to manifest it. With the exception of Smite, you cannot attempt to manifest the same psychic power more than once in the same battle round, even with different PSYKER units. The same PSYKER unit cannot attempt to manifest Smite more than once during the same battle round.Stratagems: The 16 new Stratagems often focus on specific units and monsters, so my Haruspex is definitely going to benefit from Feeding the Hunger (re-roll hits!) and my Exocrine is going to love Symbiotic Devastation – it counts as not having moved in the shooting phase, which means it can redeploy and still benefit from +1 to hit rolls and shooting twice! Blessing: Catalyst has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one friendly < HIVE FLEET> BEHEMOTH GORGON HYDRA JORMUNGANDR KRAKEN KRONOS LEVIATHAN unit within Synaptic Link range of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase: Models in that unit do not suffer the penalty to hit rolls incurred for firing Heavy weapons in the same turn that their unit has moved. Tyrant Guard are the Hivemind's solution to the adaptive tactics of this Galaxy's prey after too many synapse beasts were lost to sniper fire as hostile food would target the big ones in the swarm Created as a mass of muscle and armoured chitn Hiveguard are sightless beasts slaved to the will of their attendant charge, usually a Hive Tyrant, putting themselves between incoming fire and the precious Synapse node. This plastic kit contains 102 components with which to make either 3 Hive Guard or 3 Tyrant Guard.

Tyranid Warrior ( Shrike) • Ravener • Genestealer • Gaunt ( Termagant • Hormagaunt • Barbgaunt • Neurogaunt) • Ripper ( Sky-Slasher)Those are some fantastic tips from three people who know a thing or two about Tyranids. In each case, they’ve discovered loads of new ways to customise your army in Psychic Awakening: Blood of Baal. Models in that unit do not suffer the penalty to hit rolls incurred for firing Assault weapons in the same turn that their unit has Advanced.
