			*'''Vardenghast Terror:''' A Winged Prime. "Lost" the squad benefit, but that was wasted anyways. Instead, it can fight after dying on a 4+, making for a pseudo-''Deadly Demise''.
			*'''Psychophage:''' Has the advantages on eating up a weakened enemy, but lost the FNP aura.
			*'''Termagants:''' Come with Fleshborers for high-powered shooting. Can be split into two squads of 10, allowing for more coverage.
			*'''Barbgaunts:''' You get five of them to slow down the enemy while your Leapers can run them down.
			*'''Von Ryan's Leapers:''' Your main melee force. Expect to spam Heroic Intervention a LOT to protect your gaunts.

	*'''Neurotyrant:''' The big psychic monstrosity from the reveal trailer, attended by two smaller floating brains. Not only does it have a power that forces anyone suffering from the Shadow of the Warp to take -1 from their Battleshock tests, it also has the ability to give two friendly units within 12" the ability to always count as if they were under Synapse, making it incredibly useful for any Neurogaunts that aren't in their retinue.		*'''Neurotyrant:''' The big psychic monstrosity from the reveal trailer, attended by two smaller floating brains.

	**Any unit it joins (of which can only be Neurogaunts or Tyrant Guard) gains +1 to hit and +1 to wound if the enemy is battle-shocked. Neurogaunts won't be doing much of either with only S3 AP- claws, but it might mean a bit more when you think about the Tyrant Guard...		**Any unit it joins (of which can only be Neurogaunts or Tyrant Guard) gains +1 to hit and +1 to wound if the enemy is battle-shocked. Neurogaunts won't be doing much of either with only S3 AP- claws, but it might mean a bit more when you think about the Tyrant Guard...
	*'''Parasite of Mortrex:''' Another ''Lone Operative'' with ''Deep Strike'' and ''Stealth'' so they can arrive wherever you need them to rush the enemy. While their melee attacks are plenty decent, the real feature is that single ovipositor strike, a devastating S3 AP-2 D3 hit with ''Anti-Infantry 2+'' to guarantee that anyone it kills spits out d3 Rippers to double down on the irritation. After all, not only do the Rippers rob enemies of OC, the Parasite itself forces enemies to take battle-shock tests to potentially flat-out rob enemies of an objective.		*'''Parasite of Mortrex:''' Another ''Lone Operative'' with ''Deep Strike'' and ''Stealth'' so they can arrive wherever you need them to rush the enemy.

After all, not only do the Rippers rob enemies of OC, the Parasite itself forces enemies to take battle-shock tests to potentially flat-out rob enemies of an objective.
	*'''Tervigon:''' Absolutely necessary if you're spamming Termagants out the ass. Not only do these replenish 3+d3 gaunts to a mob within 6", all termagants within 6" get ''Lethal Hits'', which can prove to be incredible with the amount of dice you'll be dumping. Unfortunately, it can't hide behind those gaunts.		*'''Tervigon:''' Absolutely necessary if you're spamming Termagants out the ass.

	**While it has Stinger Salvoes for shooting, they won't mean much and should never be needed for anything. In melee, the option between talons and claws mostly depend on what you imagine it to be up against - While it should never be in a fight, it'd be preferable to just leave the talons on it to help swat away an aggressive melee mob.		**While it has Stinger Salvoes for shooting, they won't mean much and should never be needed for anything.

	*'''Exocrine:''' A cannon on legs: M8" T10 Sv3+ W14, and the gun is 36" Ad6+3 (''Blast'') BS3+ (''Heavy'') S8 AP-3 D3. Anyone it hits is marked so other units can re-roll 1s to hit them on the same Shooting phase, so it's got uses as a set-up. Broadly speaking, this is a Maleceptor but worse.		*'''Exocrine:''' A cannon on legs: M8" T10 Sv3+ W14, and the gun is 36" Ad6+3 (''Blast'') BS3+ (''Heavy'') S8 AP-3 D3.

	*'''Haruspex:''' Nearly pure melee monster that has a tongue for a gun with ''Precision'' so it can snipe out a hidden hero. You took it for its melee though - and it is a helluva lot of attacks with its giant mouth of [[/d/\|hentai]] while its two claws can paste something else. The last word in melee output, its only downside is that it's too large to fit inside a ~~Tyrannofex~~ so it has to walk up the field while getting shot.		*'''Haruspex:''' Nearly pure melee monster that has a tongue for a gun with ''Precision'' so it can snipe out a hidden hero.

	*'''Maleceptor:''' M8" T11 Sv3+/4++ W14 and a fairly delightful Synapse monstrosity with uses regardless of range. Its psychic gun is 18" Ad6+3(''Blast'') BS3+ S10 AP-2 D3 and its melee has two profiles: A3 WS3+ S9 AP-2 Dd6+1 swipes or A6 WS3+ S7 AP-1 D2 strikes. It also has a 6" psychic aura of -1 to hit rolls for enemy units, and also -1 to wound rolls if the enemy unit is Below Half-Strength. Make use of those screens to tie up enemies while having this debuff those enemies.		*'''Maleceptor:''' M8" T11 Sv3+/4++ W14 and a fairly delightful Synapse monstrosity with uses regardless of range.

	*'''Trygon:''' Don't take this - it can deep strike very close to the enemy (at least 3", so pretty close to consolidation range) but it's unable to charge after the enemy and hence only use its shitty gun, or it can show up farther away and risk botching the charge. The only real niche is stealing an objective despite usual deep strike tactics (pending price tag will tell). You can also make good use of the new Rapid Ingress stratagem but be prepared that every single enemy gun will turn at the big bug.		*'''Trygon:''' Don't take this - it can deep strike very close to the enemy (at least 3", so pretty close to consolidation range) but it's unable to charge after the enemy and hence only use its shitty gun, or it can show up farther away and risk botching the charge.

	*'''Tyrannofex:''' Absurdly durable at M9 T12 Sv2+ W16 with damage reduction on incoming attacks (~~making it ''immune''~~ to ~~D1 fire though expect FAQ on this very soon~~), and carries some serious dakka. The only gun choice you're ever going to make is its Rupture Cannon because you don't want to be hard-countered by very durable opponents, so here's its profile: 48" S18 AP-4 D2d6 with '''Heavy'''. It also has an stinger salvos as a sidearm for swatting at chaff.		*'''Tyrannofex:''' Absurdly durable at M9 T12 Sv2+ W16 with damage reduction on incoming attacks (to a min 1 as expected), and carries some serious dakka.

	**If you're possessed to take something else, the Acid Spray is pretty much made to drown MEQs like they're nothing. The Fleshborer Hive is an absolute bucket of dice to throw at the enemy, but you already have enough ways to drown them with your gaunts.		**If you're possessed to take something else, the Acid Spray is pretty much made to drown MEQs like they're nothing.
