Editing Codex - Q'Orl: /tg/'s 9th Edition (section)

====Swarmhood Specific====
*'''{{W40kKeyword|Afelhuk}} - The Swarmling Goad:''' ''A spine ridge made up of thousands of tiny tendrils, capable of stretching to a hundred times their length. The bearer controls these tentacles with a minuscule amount of will, whereupon they lash out to strike a nearby Q'Orl hivelings. Against any of species, this would feel like a tiny flick from a child, but each tentacle contains the precise genetic receptors to cause untold agony to a Q'Orl. This combined with the fact that the tentacles can lash out hundreds of times a minute, allows a single (very sadistic noble) to goad a swarm into a desperate frenzy, in an attempt to outrun the agony.''
::Friendly {{W40kKeyword|Afelhuk}} {{W40kKeyword|Infantry}} units within 6" of this unit add 1" to their movement, advance and charge distances. Such units may also charge after advancing, but once the charge has been resolved those units suffer D3 mortal wounds each.

*'''{{W40kKeyword|Alakyrr}} - The Whispering Blade:''' ''A failed (or you might say successful) experiment by a Hive Technologist, who wished to bind their consciousness to a blade of a metal chitin hybrid. However, when the Technologist began to binding procedure something went terribly wrong, and all that was later found by their assistants was the Technologists charred, and blackened corpse. The blade they had been experimenting on, however, was found in its cradle, unharmed, the light glinting off its organic and inorganic surface like a blinking eye, or like a mouth, pulsating in a never-ending scream.'' 
::This Relic replaces a single weapon the bearer was originally equipped and has the following profile:
::{| class=wikitable
|- valign=top
! Weapon !! Range !! Type !! S !! AP !! D !! Abilities 
|-
|'''The Whispering Blade''' || Melee || Melee || +2 || -3 || 3 || Each time the bearer of this relic fights it must make D3 addition attacks using this weapon profile. Failed hit rolls of 1 inflict a mortal wound on the bearer.

*'''{{W40kKeyword|Gook}} - Translocation Reality Flipper:''' ''An item which even the Q'Orl don't truly understand, and only the Gook are aggressive enough to use. The device takes the bearer and swaps their location in time and space with another unit that holds the corresponding beacon. Imperial observers who have seen the device in action believed that it might be a form of warp technology, which has sections of the Imperium terrified of an impending Q'Orl invasion. In reality, the device has more uncommon which Eldar Webway technology, by punching a very unstable and short distance tunnel through reality and then dragging the paired becomes through opposite ends. It's too dangerous even as a last-ditch escape device, but the violence and devastation caused by its use makes it excellent at defeating a foe by simple shock and awe.''
::When setting up your army, select another friendly {{W40kKeyword|Gook}} unit to possess the corresponding beacon for this Relic. During any phase, the bearer of this Relic may activate its beacon. Remove the bearer from the battlefield and the friendly unit which carries the corresponding beacon. Then redeploy the bearer of this Relic in the position of the other friendly unit and visa versa. If either unit was within 1" of an enemy unit then its corresponding unit must also be placed within 1" of that enemy unit as well. Both units then suffer D3 mortal wounds, but may then either make a full round of shooting attacks as if it was the shooting phase, declare a charge as if it was the charge phase, or make a full round of melee attacks.

*'''{{W40kKeyword|Loqiit}} - Queen's Aegis:''' ''Half Adamantium shield, half extra limb, the Queen's Aegis is not only a potent defensive item but a symbol of the might of the Q'Orl and their Queen's all-encompassing power. The shield glitters, like a setting sun, and effect created by its built-in refractor field and the army of Q'Orl who constantly polish it, using a special cream of nanobots who reposition the shield's surface atoms, ensuring its integrity. The extra limb which carries the shield is a cybernetic which is grown into the bearer's flesh, a process that only the strongest (and most fanatically devoted) Q'Orl can endure. The end result is a Queen's champion who can survive even the wrath of a primarch in combat.'' 
::The bearer adds 1 to all their saving throws. In addition, all enemy units within 12" subtract 2 from their Leadership characteristic.

*'''{{W40kKeyword|Simmiehu}} - Ordnance of the Scuttling Gods:''' ''An Ordnance Aimer used in a long series of battles for succession amongst the Q'Orl. Whenever a new Nobel would acquire the weapon they would use it to slay all their rivals, only to be later killed by a coalition of the survivors, whereupon the weapon would fall into a new set of hands. It is said that this weapon alone has killed more Q'Orl nobles than the entirety of the Imperiums space marine chapters combined, but despite its gruesome history no Q'Orl can quite bring themselves to destroy it.''
::This Relic replaces a '''Semi-automatic Ordnance Aimer''' and has the following profile:
::{| class=wikitable
|- valign=top
! Weapon !! Range !! Type !! S !! AP !! D !! Abilities 
|-
|'''Ordnance of the Scuttling Gods''' || 36" || Rapid Fire 3 || 8 || -3 || D3 || -
