I reckon that carnis should have their toughness raised to about 8 OR get fleet. I think they may be a little overpowered otherwise, unless of course the points goes up for those upgrades. Inwhich case i could manage.

Elephants are more of an endurance animal, they aren't made to chase down those dodgy bushes and trees. They can keep going for hundreds of miles though.

What I would like to see, in terms of A.T., is viable bio-acid spore mine broods. Say, 10pt per mine, 1-3 mines per brood, 1-3 broods per slot on the Force Org chart. Mines would be S6, Ap3 small blasts that roll 2d6 for armour penetration. The concept of liveing bombs just seems a bit more natural that organic A.T. guns.

Nope. They were troops, 22 points each, and their CC attacks ignored armor saves. Page 191 if you want to look it up.

Elephants are also more renowned to not truly "run" or "gallop" which has been a mystery to Scientists, they make 25 mph on the same gait they use for walking.

Now a killer space Dino who is literally bred for combat with talons, I would think the Hive Mind would solve the "speed" issue.

Im not a fan of the new codex cover...
