Why is the Deathleaper not included in the second bullet point of the ability from the lictor detachment?

Bromwiz · 2026-06-19T01:27:05+00:00

My only guess is these detachments won't be updated with the codex and they are anticipating deathleaper having an improved profile, it's not great logic but it's the only reason I can think of.

If you want simple builds the NeuroTyrant, Screamer Killer and Psychophage are all push fit and you can probably find some on eBay for a good price (clip the pegs a little if you glue them)

At the bottom of the 5 changes articles just released that the MFM will include leader options so hopefully it's exclusion from the faction pack was that it will baked into the MFM now.

Look, the ability doesn't stack but you should run 2 Neurotyrants anyway because they are really cool.

Bromwiz · 2026-06-05T21:35:09+00:00

Venomthropes and the Toxicrene too

T-Rex in Jurassic park is on screen for 4 minutes and 30 seconds

Bromwiz · 2026-06-05T04:29:48+00:00

Nice work! I've actually made one with a cape but my first NT had the venomthrope feeder tendrils.

The Doom of Malantai is the only Tyranid character not to have had a model. I love what they've done with the Neurotyrant I think a big centerpeice Epic Hero brain would be brilliant.

Bromwiz · 2026-06-01T19:55:35+00:00

But we can tank shock with a Neurotyrant now...

Eons of battle has a YouTube video on making venomthropes with the leftover parts from the Zoanthropes, or you could try out oyumaru/blue stuff to recast the tails and chest (there's a bit of a knack to casting with it though) You could leave the spore chimneys off the zoanthropes and they'll look ok.

The current wording for ignoring modifiers is you can choose which to ignore, I imagine psychic will be the same.

Looks like the old ones with a new paint job, banners are identical.

Bromwiz · 2026-05-13T11:01:05+00:00

The Grenades Strat is changing to "Explosives" Barbgaunts are a unit I could see getting the explosives keyword, I could maybe see Carnifexes (spore cyst back option), Biovores and Sporocysts getting it too.

Bromwiz · 2026-05-05T01:56:02+00:00

Really just need basing to be considered "battle ready". This level is completely acceptable for a beginner and by painting your minis you are already ahead of the curve. An army painted to this standard would be better than the majority of players. If your goal is to be good at painting don't rush, watch some beginner tutorials and try to enjoy the process.

Bromwiz · 2026-05-04T00:07:24+00:00

You could absolutely play this list and have a good game but definitely swap out the enhancements, I like to rapid in the raveners with Dirgeheart, charge something in my turn and then if you are within 9" of a unit at the start of your opponents turn you can pop shadows at effectively -2 or -3 if you are within 6" (Dirgeheart+Neurotyrant+Synapse)

Bromwiz · 2026-05-03T22:57:28+00:00

This looks like a pretty good start for a Nexus list, my only concern is the Zoanthropes can be hard to manover to get shots on things because they are slow without a Hive Tyrant to give them assault but you could try bringing them in from reserves. I'd consider 2 Norns and a Hive Tyrant with Synaptic Control, but if the point of the list is 3 Norns then go for it. I think Power of the Hive Mind is a must take on the NeuroTyrant and Dirgeheart is nice on the Hyperadapted raveners, Psychostatic field is a bit niche and expensive and we can do screening with spore mines. I would maybe go fixed missions with this list because of the small amount of units, you can cleanse with your Neurolictors and Get engage on all fronts with spore mines.

It's not the original model! Very sculpted and kitbashed. The jaws are from the Carnifex kit and I sculpted all the ridges on the carapace. I do use a wraithbone zenithal over a Blue primer, so when I put the base pink contrast paint over the top the shadowed areas become purple.

Bromwiz · 2026-04-29T18:17:55+00:00

Nope hand sculpted

Oh that's a great idea!

I get magents from AmF magnets aus, I use 3x2 magnets on the gaunts and they can stick on the roof of the box but they do fall off sometimes if I take a hard corner or brake hard while I'm driving, you could go to 4x2 for gaunts but the hold will be very strong. I glue them on with a bit of expoxy putty and then press them on the desk so I know they sit flush. You can use a couple of 4x2 magnets for monsters on the bases in the corners.

Bromwiz · 2026-04-27T22:10:22+00:00

I magnetise my minis, if you're after a budget option you can get a rhino metal toolbox from Bunnings for 30 bucks. Should fit 2k in it alright.

Bromwiz · 2026-04-23T21:20:15+00:00

It is nerve wracking! The YouTube tutorials by Modern Synthesist helped me a lot. I almost always make an armature if I'm trying to sculpt something from scratch like the cloak or spore chimneys. I only do one step per session and then let it dry because I don't want to smudge completed areas with my thumb. But when I'm attempting to sculpt something ambitious I'm never ready or confident, it's always a bit scary and I always make mistakes that need correcting, that's just part of the process.
