Carnifexes

Tyranids datasheet · 1 model — 90 points, 2 models — 180 points

Carnifexes have been a mainstay of the hive fleets for centuries. Rugged and adaptable organisms, they can support a great range of weapon grafts and biomorphs while retaining the raw strength, durability and armoured ferocity that has seen them smash through countless prey defence lines like living battering rams.
