There are some rumors floating around for new Tyranid rules that will be coming in their new codex soon. We know its coming next after Eldar, so lets take a look.
After some looking into them these come from originally from 4chan but have been posted up elsewhere on discord, reddit etc. These first ones are a little sketchy. Down further we have some blurry datasheet pics and something from Facebook to take a look at.
take these with a lot of salt please.
All scything talons variants make 2 hit rolls per attack. Even Hormagants. They are also free on everything (even GSs).Basic guns are mostly unchanged except Flesh Borers, Devourers, and Deathspitters all get the Living Ammunition keyword (including vars like FBH). Does nothing on it's own but proc a large number of strats. Scorch Bugs +1D, Des Larva +1 to wound, Shreddershard extra AP. No FBs are not S5 (tho FBH still is).Spinefists are now Pistol X (X still = Atks) but now you get 2 when buying a pair. Still S3 so meh on Gants but Warriors put out 8 shots w/ them now. Super cheap so RCs w/ sfists might be a thing. Full brood puts out 72 shots and Pistol so...Mon Rending Claws gone for Tyrants, legs now take up a slot on Flyrants.1 Tyrant per det but Swarmy gets the Supreme Com stuff so can still be taken in a "free" SC det. HC now a strat but its free if you have Swarmy, otherwise 2cp.Carnifex cheaper (65pts w/ cheapest build) and Elites. Options are trimmed but Spore Cysts still there but 20pts. Tusks and Chitin Thorns gone, just looks now. OOE also Elite.New flying models ARE Shrikes but have been dramatically reimagined. Not just warriors w/ wings any more. Still Synapse tho. Supposedly really cool looking. No alternate build, probably because they have a stupid amount of weapon options filling up the kit. Same S/T5 as Warriors, but only 4+ save w/ a 5++ for Preternatural Agility.Raveners no longer have multiple gun options. All condensed now into "Thorax Bioweapon" Assault3 S4 AP- 18". Doesn't get Living Ammunition tho which is a missed opportunity imho.Exo and Tfex lose shoot twice, instead have Action that begs at start of Move that lets them use SMA for free
These are from Facebook. Hard to say on these.
Here are some datasheets posted up.... Always possible to see errors in these.
and of course shot with potato cams so get what you can from them.
