In today’s Warhammer Commuity article we finally get to see what the fiendish Neurotyrant is, and what it means for the Tyranids!
The Warhammer 40,000 Leviathan boxed set has arrived, and it is the largest set yet. Among the hordes of Tyranid creatures in the set, there is a unique creature that stands out. Meet the Neurotyrant, a floating mass of tentacles and chitin that hangs back from the front lines, emanating waves of psychic power.
As a powerful Synapse node for the Hive Mind, the ineffable alien intelligence that commands the Tyranid swarm, the Neurotyrant’s vast, infallible judgement has swelled its mind to immense proportions, making it a formidable psyker and a perfect node. Its unique cerebral structure acts as a focal point for the Shadow in the Warp, increasing the mental pressure exuded by the Hive Mind until it dominates its prey with Psychic Terror.
Neurotyrants act as mobile command centers, observing the ebb and flow of the horde and commanding the battle with greater efficacy. Each Neurotyrant serves as a potent Synaptic Relay, enabling two units within 12” to act as if they are within Synapse Range until the start of your next Command phase, no matter where they end up. This ability gives your deadliest melee units more freedom to hunt down troublesome enemies, while still benefiting from the protection of the Synapse network. The Neurotyrant’s unique combination of psychic power and command capabilities make it an essential unit for any Tyranid player looking to dominate the battlefield.
The Neurotyrant is a fascinating addition to any Tyranid army. Its unique abilities allow it to control the battlefield in ways that other units cannot, and its formidable psychic powers can easily turn the tide of battle in your favor. Whether you’re a seasoned Tyranid player or a newcomer to the game, the Neurotyrant is a creature you won’t want to miss. So, add it to your army and watch as your opponents tremble in fear at the might of the Hive Mind.
