Is there a limit to the number of non-weapon biothingies you can give a Carnifex?

Nope, unless it states if you take "A" you cant have "B".

300+point carnis ftw!


For another ~2months.

lol

You can take pretty much any ones you want.
You just cant take both types of tail weapons.

Godfexes=Scary as hell!!


but its oh so satisfying when you take them down.

No but you can't have two head biomorphs or two bios.

You can have as many "head biomorphs"(assuming you mean regen/bioplasma/implant attack, et al, that are shown on the head) as you can pay for/model. It is "back biomorphs" (spore cysts/spinebanks/thornback) and tails that are restricted.
And 1 set of crushing claws.

Yeah there is a limit but you can still easily deck them out at well over 200 points. AHHH dakkafexes!

You can deck them out at over 300 points.

You still have to keep them in synapse range though if your near force weapons or skull taker (instant death for a fex sucks big time)

Kirsanth pointed out what i missed (the back upgrades as such and claws)

Other than whats been said though, feel free to make a 300 point godfex

The most expensive Carnifex possible is 342 points.

I'd reccomend against making a three hundred point Godfex. Godfexen are easy to kill with Plasma weaponry and waste alot of points on upgrades they'll never use.

Oh yeah i forgot they can go up over 300!!! wow! I remember I once took one out by charging it with a full squad of berzerkers, priceless

I have to agree, the walking Beetle of Death is nice in theory and to look at, but when actually put on the battlefield....it doesn't fair as well as the fluff might make it sound. >_< sad truth.

Cheers!

But hey! hopefully they will maybe make them a tad cheaper in the new codex!!

IronfrontAlex: I can only hope. I would love to field cheaper beefed out Fex's so I can swarm more, hehe.


Cheers!

Well not cheaper BEEFED out ones of course, probably like screamer killer types... But i HEARD just HEARD that they might lower the statline a tad? i usually ignore those rumors kinda like the rumor on 5th ed eldar wraithlors being T7 ahah

Yes, they are usually silly, but I LOVE throwing them against a new player and watching them go "It's HOW many points!?!?!?! And you have THREE?!?!?!"

NO NO NO FAIR!!



Nid Zilla isn't fun at the opposite side of the table...

9 bs4 Las cannon equivalents make carnies go bye bye.

I wouldn't worry folks. In a month's time you'll have a whole new set of options (Read: Fewer options and less flavour) to play with.
