Tyranid Gothic expansion – more escorts!
As you saw earlier, I helped two people at AFK get into Battlefleet Gothic. Talk of a campaign was had, but there were not really enough people to make it work.
I considered at this time to use my Tyranid fleet. However, when breaking down the points, I didn’t really have enough to do a full campaign list.
So I did what I do.
I went overboard.
Six Kraken with torpedoes. These are Warrior bodies, Mawloc fangs on the side, two Gaunt Adrenal Glands for the rear thruster, and flesh hooks for the torpedoes.
Five more Kraken with Massive Claws. I have several of these already, this brings the total to 11. The front is a Hive Guard Spike Rifle, the back is a Devourer, and the armor vanes are Genestealer armor plates cut in half.
A similar build, Kraken with Feeder Tentacles. These are Spore Mines cut off the base with Flesh Hook tips covering up the cut ends. The top is cut off with clippers and stuck onto a Venom Cannon with more Genestealer armor on the sides.
Again, I’ve made these before, but now I have more. Vanguard with Feeder Tentacles. Hive Crone Tentaclid with Fleshborers on the bottom as thrusters.
I made these a while ago, but hadn’t shared the pics. The fighters (left) are venom glands with a flesh hook tip as the rear thruster. The Assault Boat (right) is the top of a Ripper, with the top of a Spinefist in the rear and two venom glands at the front. Both are supported with the stalks of Flesh Hooks leftover from clipping the tips. Remember, NEVER THROW ANYTHING AWAY! You never know when it could come in handy.
Next: Legion Imperialis Astartes Infantry, the fourth box which will give me full formations of the support stands!
