Bivore - http://store.us.games-workshop.com/s...105&GameNav=10
Death Leaper -
http://store.us.games-workshop.com/s...106&GameNav=10

What do y'all think of the models? I just noticed them today, maybe it's older, but it's new to me.

They do look good, but I won't use them.

Wrathbringer6 · 25 Mar 2006, 21:08

I hate the new Biovore, but I've been down this road so I won't start again.

The Death Leaper looks nice, its rules aren't the best though and so I'd use him as a normal Lictor (he's got a worse save and one more attack, and I think he's more expensive, no thanks). Hmm, on second thought he's more expensive than the normal Lictor money-wise, so scratch that I'll just leave him in the store unless I really don't have anything else to buy.

I do like the new Biovore, despite its stupid intellectually-challenged-looking grin. I'd only consider it for conversion parts, as it just screams for being combined with a Fex to create Exocines and the such.

Death Leaper however, is very much worth it, even if it can only be used in the Medusa Campaign or with the opponent's express permission. It's armor loss is such a small deal, the extra At is just groovy. Add the ability to Deep Strike it wherever on the board and you've got yourself a winner! Definitively what a standard Lictor should have been!

Where can the rules be found/purchased for the Death Leaper? I've always wanted to make a pyschological killing army composed of Lictors, Hormagaunts, Raveners, Leaping Warriors and now, Death Leapers.

ToastMaster · 25 Mar 2006, 22:37

Both of them are much better looking then their current brethren. I really like the biovore. ^-^

citizen_kodo · 25 Mar 2006, 23:03

The stats of Death Leaper, Old One Eye and Red Terror are right here!

Gada Mazaha · 26 Mar 2006, 04:56

Ugh. The new Biovore is twice as much and twice as ugly. I like my three. I like the Death Leaper. He looks pretty cool.

Frogger · 26 Mar 2006, 06:57

Thanks for the link kodo. I'm not sure why I've never included the Red Terror in any of my lists yet. For its points it is one very effecient killer.

and why are it boxed? its same size as the old one,only difference is the box!!,which makes it more expensive...same fate as the wraithlord had...
