Tyraniden im Januar
-
Nun liebe Kinder, gebt fein acht.
Ich hab euch etwas mitgebracht:
Von faeit 212ZitatAlles anzeigenThere has been a lot of talk from Endobai over on Warseer, and right now I will say that his information is the best by far that we have seen. We will see a lot of new information I am sure over the next 24 hours, as the dam just wants to break.
via Endobai on Warseer
I had to find the Tyranid codex and more important had to work for a couple of hours, too addicted to things such was food,
and shelter to ignore this need. I am no Tyranid player so I wanted to have the codex in sight not to make any mistakes people will in turn mistake for something else.It is still too early to say too much - hardly enjoyable to be in the spotlight shining like the Astronomican for the Hive Fleets...
I can only say maybe 20% of what I know for now. Soon images should start appearing in the web so it will be possible to comment on some of them.Warriors.
In my opinion definetely the centerpiece of the release. Much like the Tactical squad for the Marine codex they are something every Tyranid player - new or veteran - will have to buy.
The box includes all or almost all weapon options the Warrior entry in the current (still the current) codex has + something really nice. Still don't expect all your wishes to come true. Remember it is no more than three infantry sprues in the box.The unit's cost.
It depends on the cost of wargear and what special rules give them - namely what Synapse Creature gives them in the new codex. Right now I can see no meaningful point decrease. Still troops though.Tervigon.
Still troops, but comes with 'the Gaunt tax' to occupy the slot. Gaunts are cheaper so it helps a little.Much depends on the new psychic powers the Tyranids get because it remains a psycher with randomly generated powers so unlike some psychers in the new tyranid codex.
The Big Bug.
It is big, but not that big. Remember that the Wraithknight and Eldar models in general are smooth and do not have so many limbs, vents, horns, bio-guns etc so making something as large as the Eldar fellow would create something really, really expensive - definetely in titan price range. The big bug is thankfully cheaper.The creature is taken from the Epic 40k, but the difference in size is not so ridiculously... pronounced, but it is large enough.
Ohh and the instinctive behaviour list is expanded - with entirely new modes some creatures will take when separated from the Hive Mind.
Tyrant Guard too got something new, a weapon upgrade they will find really useful.
The poster below was spot on. The Warriors are a new set, the last one was from 2001 so it is as with the Tacticals who got reinvented, multi-optional new sprues. Cool, useful, but they are not super-killy. Can easily be made the core of the army and have access to very many weapon options so good value for money too.
Psychic powers.
I doubt they will remove the access, so far nothing suggests it.
I can safely say something more.
All those sets allow construction of another unit, also the Haruspex which can be assembled as... another creature from Epic 40k.Hive Guards got another weapon option which can be seen on the leaked image.
The weapon is electricity based. No doubt inspired by Teslas, but I have no idea if it works in a similar way.Tyrant Guards are very lovely. My most favourite models in the release combining what is the best in the 3rd and 4th metal models.
Several weapon options just like with the warriors.I think that they got those new 50 mm bases. I was mistaken in the past with the SM Centurions so forgive me if I commit another once again.
Haruspex is damn ugly so you will recognise it immediatelly, but its 'twin' is actually really nice looking MC.
Harpy's 'brother' is not called Eridne/however it was called in those rumours.
Hormagaunts
Cheaper and faster. Think of Slaaneshi Daemons.Lictors
Of course nothing speaks like autonomous, scout, vanguard creature like a model which after landing realises how alone it is, how scary the world is and that everyone wants to kill it - so I hope it regains at least its autonomy. Rather safe bet in my opinion.Rippers
If I see it right got more expensive, but are no longer suicidal.Releases
Dual sets (one, lets say, is half-dual), so four MCs including three new beasties.
There are also other boxes, but re-packs/army sets.
No clamshell. -

ZitatAlles anzeigenExpansion on this stuff;
As mentioned earlier, Gargoyles are not Troops, and Commissar Merces said so in a later post.
1) Synapse apparently DOES give Eternal Warrior = HOLY SH*T.
2) Zoanthropes coming with Psychic Scream and Warp Blast means they must be ML2 base.
3) Brain Leech Devourers not being S6 (I assume S5 then) makes sense, sadly.
4) Warriors and Genestealers increasing a lot in points doesn't fit with earlier rumours, hopefully it is wrong.
5) So the large blast shot from the Exocrine is D3 shots....which makes sense.
6) Haruspex having a 'magna grapple' makes sense, and is simply AWESOME.
7) Still have BRB powers - I didn't believe it, but even if BL Devourers drop to S5, the Flying Hive Tyrant managed to get better (ML2 Biomancy, not just two powers for one use per turn) mostly because of the big points drop. -

Warrior kits come with 3 models, one of which can be upgraded to a Tyranid Prime. The Tryanid Prime parts include a new chestpiece, flared shoulders, and a new head. The box also comes with all the options you can take, meaning everything is included.Lash whips, boneswords, sything talons, and rending claws to outfit all three models, with bioweaponry like spinefists, devourers, and deathspitters. One model per brood can take heavier weapons that are included in the kit, such as the barbed strangler and venom cannon.
Options include toxin sacs, flesh hooks, adrenal glands
Warriors are now BS5
ZitatAlles anzeigenEndobai responses are bold italics
1. Synapse gives eternal warrior
Not proven yet.
Seems a good deduction considering the price of the Warriors which remains more or less unchanged, but so far I have no solid confirmation.
2. Gargoyles are troops.
Cannot confirm that. FOC changes via HQs are possible, but right now just a speculation.
3. Trygons (primes), Carnifex, Hive Tyrant, Tyrannofex, Venomthropes have significant point decreases
True. Values are posted elsewhere, cannot tell if all are accurate, but in general there is a point decrease.
4. Zoanthropes come with Psychic Scream, and warp blast as standard
Nothing supporting this. I said some creatures are assigned specific powers and in this case it is a prime candidate, but right now I cannot say a definitive yes.
5. Brain leach devourers no longer strength 6
6. The Crone has a massive vector strike
Don't remember, but both are quite likely.
7. Tervigon, Warriors, gene stealers have significant price increases
Warriors and Genes stay the same, upgrades are either cheaper or more expensive, but the basic cost is identical.
Tervigon is more expensive, by about a nude Warrior cost.
8. No Doom, Parasite, Spore pod.
Cannot say for sure, but no confirmation they are and no traces of their presence I could find.
9. The big cannon bug has two different firing modes, one being a D3 Large Blast and one being multiple high strength, low AP shooting attacks.
Have no idea why it is supposedly D3. One concentated large blast with Ap2 and S7 or six lesser shots (six barrels).
BTW
Interesting bit. The gun is the brain of the creature, the grinning imbecile below is just the muscle useful to allow the brain to calculate all those things it likes and no doubt design subtle works of surreal art from the splattered remains of the enemy. Think Master-Blaster from 'Mad Max 3'.
10. Hungry eyes bug has the ability to magna grapple vehicles and enemy troops.
Nice, but pure speculation so far.
Psychic powers
Primaris: Dominion, blessing, +6" synapse range for the caster
Don't remember.
Catalyst - FnP for caster and unit, and another unit in 12"
True.
the Horror - Broodlord have this power
True.
5. Psychic Scream - 1 charge, nova 6", each target takes 2d6+2 minus its Ld wounds without covers and armors
6. Warp Blast - 2charges, witchfire, unchanged
Don't remember.
Will have access to BRB powers.
No reason to disprove it now or earlier. -

ZitatOK, next set of collated info:

Zitat von harrytownOk so some more rumors I heard/found on the site I got all the pics from. First the Haruspex is not a transport just a cool looking assault monster. Next the reason there are multiple spore mine appearances is apparently the Harpy has different kind of spore mines it can drop. One is poisoned on is ignore cover etc. I would assume this would translate to the biovore as well.

leider ganz ganz miese Qualität.
Keine Ahnung, wie oft GW dieses offensichtlich runtergerenderte und dann geleakte Bild verfremdet hat: -

Rumors have it that this box set will sell for $170USD and £105 and will contain 95 models. Of course you see the other rumored releases for Tyranids by following this link. http://natfka.blogspot.com/201…s-red-terror-returns.html
So what will be in this massive box set of 95 models, lets check in on the latest rumor bits and take a look at a box combined box set that sounds like it will save you a few bucks over buying the kits individually.
Please remember that these are rumors, and always require a little salt.

Zitat von by Learn2EelBy the by people, a person on Dakka Dakka who is very reliable and claims to have seen the codex a month ago - and I believe him because of his track record (he confirmed parts from the Ogre Kingdoms book before anyone else did) - had this to say about the Crone and Harpy;
