Thank you! and the general rule with Games Workshop is why do it right when we can do a shitty job and they will buy it anyway?

the first game I ever used this guy in he started 6" away from Kroot and I have never failed to use him since... unless I'm playing chaos, fucking LD 10 across the board.

I can see modelling an exact replica would be difficult indeed. Still looking for someone who came close.

Then its user was an idiot. You stick it in a Mycetic Spore, Deep Strike it in the midst of the enemy's lines, and then suck the life outta anything in range. 3D6 leadership test, lose a wound for every point you go over the Ld, no armor or cover allowed. That's at the beginning of the Nid's shooting phase. Then it can take those wounds it sucked up into it's own Wound count, and then blast it back out in a large blast weapon, Strength = Wound Count, AP:1.

Oh yeah, it works in the beginning of the opponent's shooting phase too. 90 points? Kill 5 Marines and it makes up for cost!

Super sweet. Mind if I post this on Tyranid message boards to inspire minions of the hive?

That is most agreeable. What message boards out of curiosity? I may start visiting them myself.

Well I was probably just going to do The Tyranid Hive at thetyranidhive.proboards28.com and leave it at that since these things tend to go viral to all the rest.

Warpshadow.com is another specifically Tyranid one and warseer.com is another big one.

Awesome, I like some of the other concepts posted as well. I can't wait to see some actual models of the Doom of Malan'tai.
