Hey all, I've got a Tyranid question for you. Here's the situation, I deep strike a Mawloc and miss the enemies troops and cause a mishap. I roll a 2 or 3 and the enemy gets to choose a new location. Can my opponent choose to have it place over my own units since that placement could cause another mishap? The BRB says that the opponent may place the unit in a valid formation without scattering. Terror from the deep says "... If after scattering the Mawloc is over a unit...". To me it sounds like you can't. Any and all thoughts on the subject are appreciated. Thank you.

No, as you are not deep striking, but being placed. You cannot cause a mishap from that result.

Nosferatu is correct, the Mawloc has already been deep struck so the opponent has missed the timing to use Terror from the Deep.
