'''UNIT TYPE:'''

'''Infantry'''

'''UNIT COMPOSITION:'''

'''1 Malanthrope'''...''x pts''

'''WARGEAR:''' 
*'''Grasping Tail:''' At the beginning of the fight subphase, before any blows are struck, the Malanthrope may issue a challenge even though it does not have the character type. Roll a D6. On a result of 4+ the enemy model nominated to fight the Malanthrope in enveloped in the beasts grasping tail and has its attacks reduced by half (rounded down), initiative reduced to one for the duration of the challenge and may not refuse the challenge. If the result is 3 or less then it counts as if a challenge wasn't issued at all. In an enemy character declares a Glorious Intervention to replace the model fighting the Malanthrope then all effects of this rule are negated and the intervening character suffers no penalties.
*'''Regeneration'''
*'''Toxic Miasma'''

'''SPECIAL RULES:'''
*'''Fleet'''
*'''Move Through Cover'''
*'''Shadow in the Warp'''
*'''Poisoned (2+)'''
*'''Prey Adaption:''' If a Malanthrope brood is involved in any close combat that results in an enemy unit or units being destroyed in combat, it may not perform a sweeping advance but instead remains to feed on the dead. From the end of that phase onwards all friendly Tyranid units within gain the Preferred Enemy (all units from the same codex as the enemy unit) special rule while they remain within Synapse range of the Malanthrope brood - note that this includes the Malanthrope brood too.
