I've not picked up the xeno codex and am waiting on the Tyranid codex to come out this month. I wanted to see if you guys could tell me if the current codex has the option of buying spore mines as a unit slot. The reason I am am asking is because I would like to start working on converting spore mines from Green Stuff.

Apparently there is a stratagem that lets you poop free spore mines onto the battlefield before the battle.

Darn, I was hoping to convert up a truck load of the mines for my army.

He didn't really answer your question.

Yes, in the index you can buy units of spore mines.

Also, biovores and harpys and sporecysts produce them.

Also, we have a strategem coming that allows you to spawn and infiltrate deploy them before the game begins (details unknown on this part).

What is the unit size, and total cost of the unit. hopefully this is correct, love to convert up some spore mines.

Starts at 3 can be taken up to 6. Not allowed to post point costs here. Should be easy enough to find with some digging. But point costs now mean nothing. Also unit size. A codex is coming and it could all change.

That's good news for me then, love converting and really trying to find ways to add some xtra to the nid army. currently there is not that much in the form of converting.
