If no DoG, and the tank goes past, nothing happens. If the tank stops on the Mypod, then the mypod gets moved out of the way, just like any other model.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1407787.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1407787.page GMT Tank shock a Tyranid pod...what happens? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1407810.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1407810.page GMT Tank shock a Tyranid pod...what happens?

Yes it is. You may want to re-read the section on Tank Shocking...the model being tank shocked (assuming it passes its Morale test, which Fearless pods automatically do) is only moved if the Tank will actually end its move over the model, otherwise the tank moves right through the model.

Of course in 'reality' what this rule represents is that the model being tank shocked simply moves out of the way of the tank and back into the same position after the tank passes by. While it doesn't make much sense at all for a pod, that's what the rules are!

Exactly. Look on page 68. The orks that failed their DoG didn't even have to move out of the way. The tank moved right through them and tank shocked the gretchin behind them, which had to move because they failed their Ld test.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1407832.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1407832.page GMT Tank shock a Tyranid pod...what happens?

Wow, seriously? As Yakface pointed out, It IS in the rules. Please read them before posting.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1408226.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1408226.page GMT Tank shock a Tyranid pod...what happens?

Although tyranid codex page 54 says :"A mycetic spore cannot move for any reason once it has entered the battle"

Moving it out of the way if tankshock ends on top of it would break that rule?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1408311.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1408311.page GMT Tank shock a Tyranid pod...what happens?

No. Tank Shock states that the unit is MOVED out the way. This is not the same as the Pod itself Moving.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1408315.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284035/1408315.page GMT
