Why the Tyranid Lictor is Your Secret Weapon in 10th Edition Warhammer 40k

[@sockylogic2014]

Lictor? I barely knew 'er.

[@Vichyssoise1000]

Lictor has worked amazingly for me with outflanking turn2 carnifexes. Get them to shoot the fexes and either suck up a lot of shooting to kill it, or fail and get it moving up into their faces if not into combat. Win win

[@mkulchar]

Plus with the codecs coming out they mentioned that leapers etc are going to have their own separate little special faction so it might get deep strike or special ability when you have the death leaper as your warlord

[@Planet40kTyranids]

potentially.

[@mkulchar]

What do you think of the parasite? Not an amazing but it does have loan operative gives off that alien vibe with popping little rippers out of infantry. It's almost like a litcor But with deep strike no precision

[@Planet40kTyranids]

well last week i took my necrons to a doubles tourn (as seen on the necrons channel) game 1 was vs nids / sisters. We nearly lost as the parasite deepstruck in with its toe on a no mans land objective and we couldnt target it without coming out. but there were monsters waiting to pounce....

Thought units that dont have ranged weapons arent eligible to shoot, therefore cant do those types of actions. Am I wrong?

[@Planet40kTyranids]

yep your wrong there. check rules commenty errata...

@@Planet40kTyranids Thanks for the clarification!

[@charliedonnelly2373]

could you not put them in a tyranocyte ? the rapid ingress the drop pod where the lictor/lictors would immedietly disembark

[@Planet40kTyranids]

whats the play here

?

[@charliedonnelly2373]

@@Planet40kTyranids Correct me if im wrong since a noob to playing, but could you not cram up to 3 Lictors into a tyranocyte since they are infantry (taking 9/20 total slots of the tyranocyte) then use rapid ingress the tyranocyte since it has Deep strike, yes it would cost 1CP but it would mean that you could get lictors into movement+charge range of an enemy unit where you want a character/character's dead and because they're deep striking in it would mean that any lictor or lictor's wouldn't get targeted turn 1
