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

=== Bug Planet ===
:''Unlike the Tyranid scourge nearly ten thousand years later, the bio-beast armies that the Legions faced were not invaders adapting as they arrived, but instead were natives that were already perfectly integrated within their ecosystem over thousands if not millions of years.''

Operating in much the same manner as a Space Marine Legion Rite of War, fielding a detachment as a Bug Planet detachment has certain restrictions as well as benefits, and affects how the army is selected, as well as adding additional special rules which do not apply to a standard Tyranid army.

'''Effects''':

* '''Without Number'''

:''With thousands of lesser creatures for every apex predator, some battles can go on for days as massive swarms gather to gain victory by attrition if nothing else.''

:Termagant Broods may pay an additional 50pts, and, when the unit has been destroyed, an identical unit be may placed into Ongoing Reserves.

* '''Stratoformers'''

:''While many species of xenos display significant adaptation to their environment (whether this is engineered or evolutionary), some are also known, like humans, to adapt their environment to suit their biology. In extreme cases, this capability is seen evident on a wide scale, changing the land or the atmosphere to make not just the native life but the entire world a weapon against invasion.''

Operating in much the same manner as a Space Marine Legion Rite of War, fielding a detachment as a Stratoformers detachment has certain restrictions as well as benefits, and affects how the army is selected, as well as adding additional special rules which do not apply to a standard Tyranid army.

'''Effects''':

** The opposing force suffers a +1 or -1 penalty to their score to determine who chooses who deploys first, who has the First Turn, and/or for Scout Redeployment where this is relevant to the mission being played, chosen by the Tyranid player.
** The opposing force suffers a +1 or -1 penalty to bring units in from Reserves (including Deep Strike Reserves and Ongoing Reserves) where this is relevant to the mission being played, chosen by the Tyranid player. This has no effect where the no roll is made or it is automatically successful.
** The opposing force suffers a +1 or -1 penalty to rolls on the Deep Strike Mishap table, chosen by the Tyranid player.
** The opposing force suffers a +1 or -1 penalty to rolls for Outflank, chosen by the Tyranid player.
** Each game turn, the first time any model in an opposing force tries to make use of any special rule or benefit conferred by the possession of any Nunci-vox, they must roll a D6 – if they roll a 1-3 then the Nuncio-vox possessed by this model is inoperative for this turn. Roll separately for each Nuncio-vox possessed by each different model at the time their individual rules are invoked.
** Drop Pod units (of any kind) with the Inertial Guidance System special rule lose the benefit of that special rule. Instead, if their final position would result in a Deep Strike Mishap, they may re-roll their scatter result in an attempt to avoid a Deep Strike Mishap (but may not re-roll a scatter result which does not result in a Deep Strike Mishap).
** All models in this detachment gain a 4+ cover save against shots from Bombardment, Focused Bombardment, or Orbital Bombardment weapons.

'''Limitations''':

* This detachment must take one additional Compulsory Troops choice in addition to that normally required by the Force Organisation Chart.
* This detachment may not have more Elites and HQ selections in total than they have Troops selections in the detachment.
* Compulsory Troops choices for this detachment must be made of Termagant units.
* Each Termagant Brood must purchase a Ripper Swarm as part of the same selection on the Force Organisation Chart. Each Gargoyle Brood must purchase a Sky-Slasher Swarm as part of the same selection on the Force Organisation Chart. These additional units must purchase a minimum of two extra bases for each full ten additional models that are purchased for their corresponding unit. For example, a Termagant Brood containing 30 models requires the purchase of a Ripper Swarm comprising at least six bases.
