MalteseFalcon Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hello all. Just need a rule cleared up but do Synapse creatures count as Psykers? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239536-synapse-creatures-and-nemesis-weapons/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
number6 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 To the Tyranid's detriment with respect to the Grey Knights, yes. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239536-synapse-creatures-and-nemesis-weapons/#findComment-2889659 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elric the Silvercoat Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Only the Swarmlord, Hive Tyrants, Thorathopes, Broodlords, and Tervigons are Psykers. They are Synapse Creatures (other than the Broodlord) but not all Synapse creatures are psykers.

Iron Lord Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Does "Synapse Creature" and its ability to detonate spore mines, not count as a psychic power then? Or was that 4E-only?

Nothing like that exists in the current Tyranids codex.

number6 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Only the Swarmlord, Hive Tyrants, Thorathopes, Broodlords, and Tervigons are Psykers. There are also Zoanthropes and the Doom; all of these models are Psykers. They are Synapse Creatures (other than the Broodlord) but not all Synapse creatures are psykers. True enough. The Parasite of Mortrex, Primes, Warriors, Shrikes, and Trygon Primes are all Synapse creatures yet not Psykers. But you rarely see these models on the tabletop any more. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239536-synapse-creatures-and-nemesis-weapons/#findComment-2889694 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thade Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I now suspect that number6 is actually a Tyranid Insurgent and is not a true Grey Knight. He's very, very adept at finding weaknesses in our pretty silver armor. Can we get an Inquisitor in here, please?

GKs were not only my very first army, they're still my first :wub: .
