http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/15.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net I am new to warhammer 40k and need something cleared up for me. I noticed that there is a small asterisk next to the different head biomorph enhancements. It says that you can only take one head, which is obvious, but I have a few problems and was wondering if there was some errata about it. First there is no asterisk next to implant attack, so doesnt that mean you could for example have a feeder tendrils head that would also have the implant attack head on the same model? I am not sure if this was a typo oversight, and therefore you cannot have both, or if there is the possibility that even though you only see one biomorph enhancement you can have two. Second I want feeder tendrils and flesh hooks on my genestealers, but the asterisk says I can only take one. This does not make sense to me since other tyranid units have chest flesh hooks (example warriors). I was wondering if I can take the feeder tendril heads, and the chest flesh hooks. I am hoping that they have a errata either way that you can have two biomorph head enhancements, or that you can have one head and chest flesh hooks. Please help me out! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593087.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593087.page GMT One more question I just thought of. If there is not errata, then what would you reccomend? Flesh hooks so I can assault into units that are hiding in cover and not take the initiative penalty, or feeder tendrils so I can re-roll misses? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593106.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593106.page GMT GW doesn't write FAQ's that totally contradict what they wrote in the rules. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593112.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593112.page GMT
Genestealers, at 16 points per model, are already pricey before you start slapping upgrades on them. Consider running them with Scuttlers only and letting their High initiative/high WS rending attacks handle the business of turning the enemy into sushi. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593121.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593121.page GMT FAQ on the topic. It seems the intention was to restrict Tendrils/Flesh Hooks to only 1 for Genestealers. The way most people get around that is by putting Tendrils on the Broodlord, thus giving the whole squad the benefit. This only works for 1 squad, but maybe keep a Lictor close by, or stay near something else with Feeder Tendrils to pick up the bonus.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593137.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593137.page GMT
Flesh hooks would also be a pretty good deal, if it weren't for the fact that tendrils are usually better overall and you can't take both (outside of a BL and retinue).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593551.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/593551.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/594176.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/594176.page GMT
scuttlers is rly good just even for the scout move, let alone the outflanking, and like before feeder tendrils are probably the best 1 pt upgrade ever (u forgot to mension the 2" confering, yay carnifex's with prefered enemy!!!) ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/597059.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/231986/597059.page GMT
