Editing Carnifex (section)

===Screamer-Killer===
[[File:ScreamerKiller.png|300px|thumb|right|Giving the good old classic a modern touch.]]
A melee-focused 'fex, equipped with only two pairs of talons with no other armaments to its name. It's named the Screamer-Killer thanks to its unique [[Bio-Plasma|Bio-Plasmic Scream]], which is what happens when it vomits out superheated plasma onto a crowd. Screamer-Killers are said to be the largest and most infamous species of Carnifex.

While prior editions didn't really see it differentiated much from other fexes aside from maybe a slightly different head, 10th Edition decided to take great strides to make it unique by making its four [[Tyranid_Bio-Weapons#Screamer-Killer Talons|new talons into monstrous crab legs]] and its head taking an appearance that's more akin to the original oldschool Carnifex. Yes, by all accounts, GW managed to somehow make the goofy-ass early Carnifex design, [[awesome|genuinely badass]].

On the tabletop, in 10th Edition, the Screamer-Killer is a genuine melee-monster. Whilst it is comparatively sluggish at just Movement 8", its stats means that not even MEQs can survive long in this living meat blender. T9, 10 Wounds, LD8+, SV2+ makes this a tough bastard to take down. Its weapons has [[Rape|''ten fucking attacks'', strikes on a 3+, with each hit dealing S10, AP-2, and D3.]] Even assuming that only a third of them hit, you are still looking at an average of ''9 wounds'' per turn. And that is not getting into its Bio-Plasmic Scream which is a decent MEQ remover in its own right. [[Swarmlord]] eat your heart out, because you are getting some spicy competition.
