Tyranid Flyers: Harpy and Hive Crone


Tyranid flyers are going to be under incredible pressure to perform with this release, and for that, there are two new models (1 kit) that are being released. Rumors have it that these are the previously known Harpy, and the new Hive Crone. This little rumor goes into some of the roles of each of these new models on the tabletop.


Please remember that these are rumors and as such require some salt.

One kit makes up both the Harpy and the Hive Crone
The model is larger than any other flyer we have for from GW

The Harpy can be labelled as a bomber and comes with a stranglethorn cannon or heavy venom cannon, and can drop biological spore bombs (3 choices).

The Hive Crone is meant to take on air targets with its claws, and comes with drool cannon, that spits digestive acid onto its foes. On the bottom of the wings the Hive Crone comes with 4 tentaclides (missiles) that are used to take down aircraft.
