<br style="clear: both; height: 0px;" />

'''Special Rules:'''
*'''Instinctive Behaviour (Feed)'''
*'''Fearless'''
*'''Swarms'''
*'''Eternal Warrior'''
*'''Consume:''' During the Shooting phase a unit with at least three bases with this rule may opt to devour an organic terrain piece (forests, bushes, swamps, etc) it touches. If it chooses to do so, you may move models in the unit to any point wholly within that piece of terrain before removing it from the field. This counts as Run move for all intents and purposes.
*'''Surge:''' In close combat, every model with this special rule can exchange all of its normal Attacks to make a single surge attack, which uses the following profile:
:{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="left"
! Range 
! S 
! AP 
! Type 
|-  
| -
| 1 
| - 
| Melee, Haywire, Jammed!
|-
|}<br style="clear: both; height: 0px;" />
::'''Jammed!:''' When performing a surge attack, models with this rule must roll to hit in close combat even if they hit automatically. For each to-hit result of 1 or 2, the unit, which performed surge attack, suffers a randomly allocated wound with no saves of any kind allowed. This wound cannot be allocated on the model without the Surge special rule.

'''Options:'''

*May include up to six additional Ripper Swarms - 13 pts/base

<br style="clear: both; height: 0px;" />
'''Special Rules:'''
*Deep Strike
*Fearless
*Shrouded
*Massive Floating Bomb: Each Mucolid Spore uses the Floating Death and Living Bomb rules that apply to Spore Mines. All references to Spore Mines and Spore Mine Clusters in these special rules apply to Mucolid Spores also, except that the hits inflicted when a Mucolid Spore explodes are Strength 8 AP3 rather than Strength 4 AP4.
*Skyblast: Mucolid Spore Clusters are allowed to assault Zooming Flyers or Swooping Monstrous Flying Creatures. If they do so successfully then they will explode as described in the Floating Death special rule, hitting the target automatically, with Strength and AP as described above. Hits on Zooming Flyers are always resolved against the target model’s side armour.
'''Options:'''
*May include up to two additional Mucolid Spore Mines - 15 pts./model
