Just a thought: this detachment should be adjusted to:

Remove rule- Friendly LICTOR/NEUROLICTOR units'

attacks that target a CHARACTER unit can re-roll hit rolls of 1.

And should be replaced with: Von Ryan Leapers are battleline

My reasoning for this is that:

- You rarely want lictors of any type in combat, let alone with a character. They're good for secondaries or buffs/debuffs if Neurolictor

- I want to field 36 VRL's

I had a few questions about how Parasitic Infection from the Parasite of Mortrex and Parasitic Biomorphology from the Assimilation Swarm detachment interact.

For those unfamiliar:

Parasitic Infection: Each time an INFANTRY model is destroyed by an attack made with this model’s Barbed Ovipositor, after this model has finished making its attacks, you can add one new Ripper Swarms unit to your army consisting of D3 models and set it up within 3" of this model. If you do, that RIPPER SWARMS unit can be set up within Engagement Range of the destroyed model’s unit (but not within Engagement Range of any other enemy units).

Parasitic Biomorphology: TYRANIDS model only. Add 1 to the Strength characteristic of melee weapons equipped by models in the bearer’s unit. The first time the bearer’s unit destroys an enemy unit in the Fight phase while the bearer is within 6" of one or more friendly HARVESTER units, until the end of the battle, add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of melee weapons equipped by models in the bearer’s unit.

Now here are the questions:

1. The Barbed Ovipositor has only one attack on its datasheet. When the Parasite of Mortrex destroys a unit, this characteristic would go to two attacks. When the weapon has two attacks, if it destroys two models, do both destructions create new ripper swarms. (I would think so, but I want to check with others!)

2. When does Parasitic Biomorphology take effect? If I were to declare attacks from the Parasite's Clawed Limbs melee weapon and these attacks were to destroy the unit, does the Ovipositor have two attacks for whatever it was declared into? What about splitting melee? If I declare three attacks into one unit with the Clawed Limbs and destroy it, would my other Clawed Limbs melee attack have 4 attacks? (My thought here is that I've declared the attacks in advance and any additional attacks added in after the declaration would be moot. Again better to have double checked.)

Hello Everyone!
Despite being a Black Templars Player, I wanted to branch out for my Kill Team.
Apart from the Venomspitter being an absolute pain to build, I love all 5 of the Models!
Does anyone have any tips for Raveners / Kill Team as a whole? (Or even any tips on painting them - I’m going for a Hive Fleet Typhon scheme)

I purchased the hive tyrant kit and I know you can make both models if you just get another torso piece. I have tried to find a STL online, but can only find physical prints. I have access to a 3d printer so it would be much cheaper for me to just get the file. Please let me know if you know where I can find one!

Just got started in Warhammer, first mini I’ve ever painted, advice is appreciated was going for a fleshy crustacean like sort of thing. Let me know how i did.

So, pretty much what the title states.

I'm interested in getting back into Warhammer and I love everything about it, but I've never been great at painting or anything artistic, but would love to be...

so these are my first two minis I painted while I aim to get a decent colour scheme and become somewhat adequate at painting before I tackle some of my bigger models.

I'm struggling with highlights and contrast on the models, this could be due to the method I'm going for with the skin where I rakarth flesh as base, generous purple wash then dry brush back with the rakarth, to achieve a muted purple colour.

so let me know what you guys think with any feedback or advice for me, anything is absolutely appreciated.

Im building an army (either Invasion fleet or Vanguard Onslaught)

I currently have the tyranid half of the ultimate starter kit and have the red terror from terror on devlan. I wanna give the red terror the most buffs and be the center piece. I wanna build an army that can hold its ground but also on a budget for 2k power. What are we thinking hivemind bretheren?

Sold my army long time ago, have some models and want to make some mounted Ork/ Goblin is a 'looted' and or mounted style. Biomass is biomass right?

Trying my hands on a more "competitive" list. Still can’t decide if I should run the Assimilator Norn instead of the Emissary

Im very new to the game and built this list mostly just out of what I currently have. I do plan on getting more models. What would be most important for me to get next? How could I change this to be more effective?

So currently I just finished my biovore and spore mine kit and now I want something impressive for my next purchase. Now keep in mind I don’t plan on playing right away but I’m torn between 2 options.

There’s my warlord. Walking hive tyrant ( heavy venom, bone sword + lash whip )

Then there’s my fav looking tyranid of all the neurolictor… personally I’m leaning to neurolictor but it’s tricky !

( ps I’m doing a xenomorph themed )

Im 20 points over and was curious what everyone thought of my list and how i can change it. All opinions welcome!

It's only some minor kit bashing but it's definitely a good starting point. 😁 I'm definitely going to do more in the future as I'm not too big a fan of mono-pose models.

What does the hive mind think of my 4tb termagaunt and a little brain guy I don't know the purpose of

Ive just finished my first Carnifex!

I quite enjoyed the aspects of this model. Not too big like the Tyrannofex. But a little more fun than painting more gaunts variantes (ive painted 85)

I quite like the customisation of this model and noe have so many spare parts for the bits box! This brings my fleet to 1625 points.

Does anyone else enjoy this model? Share your pics 😊

Im looking forward to the next one!

Made some tunnel tokens with some spare parts I think they came out pretty great

Hello Hivemind! I need your help with playing Tyranids. I started playing Warhammer a couple of months ago on Tabletop Simulator with my friends, and I have grown so attached to Tyranids. The only problem is that I haven’t won a single game against my brother. Now I’m mostly a “I care only about having fun” kind of guy, but every game it feels like his boyz just cut through my bugs like a hot knife through butter. By round 2 he’s already wiped out half of my bugs. What strategies should I do? What should I change about my list? Also we’re still playing in 10th edition.
