==== Unit Changes ==== The following changes apply: '''Tyranid Prime''' β 85pts. Have the same profile, Special Rules, and options as in Codex Tyranids, plus the following options: * May gain Secondary Organs for 21pts * May gain a Bonded Exoskeleton for 15pts * May gain a Reinforced Carapace for 27pts * May gain a Voltage Field for 23pts * May gain Regeneration for 29pts '''Tyrant Guard Brood''' β have the same profile, Special Rules, and options as in Codex Tyranids, plus the following options: * All models in the unit may: ** gain Secondary Organs for 20pts/model ** gain Hopfoot for 20pts/model * One model may purchase the Alpha Bioform upgrade for 10pts '''Tyranid Warrior Brood''' β have the same profile, Special Rules, and options as in Codex Tyranids, plus the following options: * All models in the unit may: ** gain Secondary Organs for 11pts/model ** gain a Bonded Exoskeleton for 8pts/model ** gain a Reinforced Carapace for 14pts/model ** gain a Voltage Field for 12pts/model ** gain Regeneration for 15pts/model <div class="toccolours"> ''The cost of each upgrade is extremely deliberate, any one upgrade is great and they just get better as theyβre combined, but buying all of them, while creating an extremely fearsome unit, will cost as much (or more) as just buying three times as many. What this does is give you options to play the way you want to play. If you want super-elite troops, you can have that, if you want survivability to battle cannons (or even just heavy flamers, kthx), you can have that. Heck, half the problems with Synapse (and therefore Instinctive Behavior) across the whole army is the result of the extreme inflexibility of traditional Tyranid Warriors. These are [[Your_dudes|your dudes]], after all, and Tyranid Warriors especially should be the core of most Tyranid forces, not just another overcosted borderline-joke unit in a long list of overcosted borderline-joke units.'' </div> '''Termagant Brood''' β 90pts for 20 Termagants. May add up to 30 additional Termagants for 3pts/model. One model may purchase the Alpha Bioform upgrade for 5pts. All other options from Codex Tyranids remain unchanged. Note: The Scuttling Swarm special rule should be read to require broods of at least 30 Termagants, but otherwise remains unchanged. '''Hormgaunt Brood''' β 105pts for 20 Hormgaunts. May add up to 30 additional Hormgaunts for 4pts/model. One model may purchase the Alpha Bioform upgrade for 10pts. All other options from Codex Tyranids remain unchanged.

'''Lictor Brood''' β Immediately before deployment, each Lictor in the Brood may be separated from the rest of the Brood and operate independently, counting as separate units for all rules purposes. All other options from Codex Tyranids remain unchanged. '''Zoanthrope Brood''' β Zoanthrope Broods containing a Neurothrope may gain the Vortex of Doom psychic power from the Daemonology (Sanctic) psychic discipline, for 59pts, instead of generating an additional power from the Powers of the Hive Mind discipline. The Vortex of Doom psychic power acquired by this unit in this way, counts as a Powers of the Hive Mind psychic power and not a Daemonology (Sanctic) power in all respects. This power is lost if the Neurothrope is removed. All other options from Codex Tyranids remain unchanged.
