Screamer killers come stock with вЂњbio plasmic screamвЂќ which is 0 points, 12вЂі assault 6(not sure on the number), S7 ap-1, 1damage. the 2 pairs of monstrous scything talons for carnifexes are 15 pts, 1 pair is 14 pts. 1.)

Neurothrope is now HQ, a character and no longer part of a zoanthrope unit. no idea if monstrous rending claws are still a thing. didnt manage to see the pointage or the wargear options. hiveguard are either the same or has an inconsequential decrease in points.

HereвЂ™s a bunch of random (please do not swear) *cant remember the name* target unit within 36вЂі of the psyker essentially gains synapse (thereвЂ™s a whole big ass block of text here talking about exceptions and what not) Paroxysm WC5, target enemy unit within 12вЂі of the psyker fights last. If the value is higher than the enemy psykerвЂ™s leadership, the enemy psyker loses 1 spell at random if the target is a psyker, also roll 2d6.
