Crusher Stampede

2 DP

Detachment Rule: Enraged Behemoths

In their efforts to lay the monstrous beasts of a Crusher Stampede low, the prey only succeed in further enraging the rampaging monsters. The surviving beasts are driven to fight with greater fury the more of their number that fall. Each time a TYRANIDS MONSTER model from your army makes an attack, add 1 to the Hit roll if that model’s unit is below its Starting Strength , and add 1 to the Wound roll as well if that model’s unit is Below Half-strength . In addition, while a TYRANIDS MONSTER unit from your army (excluding Battle-shocked units) is at its Starting Strength, add 2 to the Objective Control characteristic of models in that unit.

CORROSIVE VISCERA

Cost: 1CP Type: Strategic Ploy Stratagem Detachment: Crusher Stampede

WHEN: Your opponent’s Shooting phase or the Fight phase , just after a TYRANIDS MONSTER model from your army with the Deadly Demise ability that cannot FLY is destroyed . TARGET: That TYRANIDS MONSTER model. You can use this Stratagem on that model even though it was just destroyed.

It can also move through sections of terrain features that are more than 4" in height, but if it does, after its unit has moved, roll one D6: on a 1, your unit is Battle-shocked .
