==Titanic== Here the most powerful and biggest weapons the Tyranids have are described, used by the biggest and baddest of nasties. ===Bio-Cannon=== [[File:Biocannon.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Bio-Cannon]] The biggest motherfucking gun alive on land (Both figuratively and literally). The Bio-Cannon is a Tyranid Biomorph. Equipped on titan-sized creatures such as the [[Hierophant]] and [[Harridan]], the Bio-Cannon works like a giant Deathspitter; that is that it spews forth a hail of highly venomous and corrosive maggot organisms. But these maggots are ECKS BAWKS HUEG to make it a threat to superheavies. These organisms like their smaller cousins, explode on impact, splattering a rain of bio-acid and poison that can melt through nearly any material in a matter of seconds. Of course how this affects esoteric shit like [[Void shield|Void Shields]] is unknown (Maybe it eats through Void Shields?). On crunch, the Bio-Cannons comes in two since the Hierophant naturally twin-links these; they are S10 (which can double for the price of taking D3 mortal wounds, like tau units overcharging), AP-2, 2D6 damage (doubled against buildings and other TITANIC units). Its a shame it is the only Titan-grade Tyranid weapon though. ===Bio-Torpedo=== [[File:Nid_Torpedo.JPG|200px|right|thumb|Bio-Torpedo]] Otherwise known as the Tyranid Torpedo. These things are living, breathing Torpedoes used by Bio-Ships to break open the hulls and shatter the shields of enemy vessels. Unlike most races torpedoes which has limited tracking and maneuvrability, Bio-Torpedoes could do twist and turns that no ordinary torpedoes could replicate. They are packed full of bio-plasma to fuck shit up. It should be noted that Bio-Torpedoes look very similar to the [[Ether-Swimming Brood]]. On [[Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II]], these living weapons are just regular torpedoes, [[Derp|despite the fluff.]] Launch several of them at close range for a truly lethal torpedo-giant claw combo and [[Rape|watch the ensuing spectacle.]] <gallery> Bio-Torpedo_launched.JPG </gallery> ===Seed Spore=== [[File:Nid_Seed_Spore.JPG|200px|right|thumb|Seed Spore]] If the Bio-Torpedoes are the Nids answer to regular torpedoes than the Seed Spore is the Nids answer to Melta Torpedoes. Seed Spores function the same as Bio-Torpedoes, however, the catch is that rather being filled to the brim with fuel that creates bio-plasma, the Seed Spore is packed with pyro-acid spores that blankets a large area in a toxic cloud. On [[Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II]], these living weapons are your area-denial weapon. The clouds being spawned from a Seed Spore covers a good range and any ship within the cloud takes hull damage rather than shield damage. ===Bio-Plasma Battery=== ''See main article here: [[Bio-Plasma Battery]]'' ===Pyro-Acid Battery=== [[File:Pyro-Acid_Battery_2.JPG|200px|right|thumb|Pyro-Acid Battery]] The [[Dick|giant phallic weapons]] found only on Bio-Ships. Essentially the Tyranids version of a [[Exterminatus|Macro-Weapon mixed in with a Flamer/Chem-thrower.]] Pyro-acid Batteries are a kind of Weapons Battery used on Tyranid Bio-ships. Launching toxins and pyro-acids, these gigantic Biomorphs can cause considerable damage on impact to enemy ships. Moreover, after impact, they unleash hordes of smaller Tyranid creatures into the ship, and these often prove more deadly than the weapon itself. On [[Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II]], these things can be found on either the mouth or portside of a Bio-Ship. Most often than not, these things are the most [[Dakka]] weapons of a Hive Fleet, able to dish out an enormous amount of acidic fire and criticals while also ignoring shields, in contrast to slower firing weapons like the Drool Cannon for example. [[Orks]] [[Shitstorm|shit themselves a new one]] when face against these things, [[Necrons]] however...not so much. The weapon comes in two forms like the [[Bio-Plasma Battery]]. There is the much larger Discharge Artillery which is mounted on the front hull of the ship. That gives it longer range at the expanse of fire rate. Then these are the batteries which are mounted on the starboard and port of the vessel. They have greater firepower at the expanse of range. <gallery> Image:Pyro-Acid_Battery.JPG </gallery>
