Choose one model in the formation, this model has access to any psychic powers known by other models in this formation within 12″. Other models within 12″ cannot manifest psychic powers until the end of the phase. The chosen model passes psychic tests on 3+
When using Mind Worm, models in this formation double the max range if there is at least one other model within 12″

Rules Lawyer
- The question: What happens when Zhadsnark rams a vehicle on turn 1? More details below.
- Zhadsnark can Tank Shock:
- “at the beginning of any Turbo Boost move he may declare that he will Tank Shock. When making a Tank Shock move Zhadsnark is treated as though he was a vehicle with the Tank type and the Tank Shock is carried out normally”
- In the BRB page 94 it says
- “Ramming is a special Type of Tank Shock, and is executed the same way. Any Vehicle can Tank Shock can also Ram”
- What happens if Zhadsnark Rams a vehicle? What is the Strength of the hit he delivers? (Normally 1/2 AV, +1 for being a tank, +2 for being a Heavy or superheavy). He counts as a Tank, but has no AV. Is it a Strength 1 Hit?
- But then things get more interesting. Because he failed to remove the vehicle, he is in base to base contact with it when the assault phase starts, and thus gets to attack it. It is is a walker, he is locked in combat with it.
- So does that mean Zhardsnark is able to pull off a 48 inch (12 for scout, 12 for move, 24 for turboboost) turn 1 non-charge entry into assault?
the sporefield formation Nids.. the ‘new’ spore mines.. Can they deep strike or do they have to walk on? RAW I think they have to walk on but makes no real sense. Wondering how you are playing it for the LVO (same for gargoyles in skyblight). Makes sporefield very useless if they have to walk on?
