Editing Warhammer 40,000/Xenos in 30k (section)

==== Bioqueen ====
:''At the centre of any colony or hive sits the queen, and in large-scale planetary lifeforms that dominate their ecosystem, they are frequently not pure breeders but super-intelligent administrators, directing and marshaling the individual members with, cold, regimented precision. This alien logistical ability translates directly into strategic insight and sometimes even to tactical acumen, and in cases where they themselves possess powerful or deadly bodies, they can boost their efficiency as commanders further by accompanying their forces to the warzone.''

'''UNIT TYPE'''

The Bioqueen is Monstrous Creature (Character)

'''UNIT COMPOSITION'''

Bioqueen

'''WARGEAR''':

* Two pairs of Scything Talons

'''SPECIAL RULES''':

* Psyker (Mastery Level 2)
* Shadow in the Warp
* Synapse Creature
* Race Mother
* Brain Bug

'''Race Mother'''

:''Even where there is a wide biological difference between individual specialists across dozens or maybe hundreds of generations, their genetic history traces them back to one dynasty of life forms, the heart of the planet-sized bionetwork, where every other family member are their eyes, ears, and limbs.''

Equivalent to Master of the Legion. May not take more than one model with this special rule for every 1,000 points in the army. When a model with this rule is the Warlord, they may roll twice on their chosen Warlord Traits chart (re-rolling any doubled result) and select which of the two results they wish to use; and a single brood of Tyrant Guard can be selected as a retinue as part of the same choice on the Force Organisation Chart – models in any such unit can choose to accept and issue Challenges as if they were characters.

'''Brain Bug'''

:''The most intelligent lifeforms in hive societies are critical nodes in the effective functioning of their highly coordinated societies, and their loss — while survivable — impairs their efficiency until a new leader can be raised.''

The Price Of Failure secondary objective applies to the Bioqueen as if it was a Lords of War selection. As the Bioqueen has less than 9 wounds as standard, this means that the death of a single Bioqueen will only surrender a single additional victory point in most cases.

'''PSYKER''':

The Bioqueen generates its psychic powers from the Powers of the Hive Mind, Biomancy, Pyromancy, Telepathy and Telekinesis disciplines.

'''OPTIONS''':

* May take items from the Monstrous Bio-cannons, Melee Bio-weapons, Biomorphs, and Tyranid Bio-artefacts lists.
* May take Flesh Hooks for 5pts, or items from the Thorax Biomorphs list.
* May take any of the following upgrades:
** Indescribable Horror 10pts
** Old Adversary 15pts
** Hive Commander 20pts
** Alien Cunning 25pts
** Swarm Leader 30pts
** Planetary Overlord 20pts
** Psyker (Mastery Level 3) 30pts
** Wings 35pts
** Psychic Nexus 40pts
* May take up to two of the following Tail biomorphs:
** Prehensile Pincer 10pts
** Toxinspike 10pts
** Thresher Scythe 10pts
** Bone Mace 15pts

''This entry basically makes the Swarmlord customizable to a similar degree to a Hive Tyrant. In fact, no, really it’s just a Hive Tyrant with the equivalent of Master of the Legion and a couple of extra options and buffs, which is what a Swarmlord '''should''' be. Brain Bug discourages you from taking two, but does not prohibit it outright.''
