Maleceptor

Tyranids datasheet · 1 model — 180 points, 1 model — 190 points

Amongst the most powerful Tyranid psyker-analogues yet known, Maleceptors wield colossal synaptic power. Ethereal psychic pseudopods lash about them, able to literally detonate victims’ skulls with the slightest touch, while the encephalitic orbs set into their carapaces focus the smothering dread of the Shadow in the Warp.
