Tyranids: Psychophage

Description

The Psychophage, a terrifying embodiment of the Tyranids’ psychic predation, is an essential unit for commanders who seek to leverage the hive mind’s more esoteric abilities on the battlefield. These monstrous creatures are not only formidable in their physical might but also in their unique capacity to consume and weaponise psychic energy.
Product Features:
Horrific Design: The kit includes one Psychophage model, meticulously sculpted to capture its nightmarish visage. It features a vast, many-jawed maw with razor-sharp teeth and barbed tentacles, perfect for gripping and tearing apart its psychic prey.
Menacing Pose: Elevated on six scuttling, talon-tipped limbs, the Psychophage’s pose conveys its terrifying speed and agility. Its bulbous body, swollen with digestive sacs and covered in orifices, is crowned with dorsal chimneys that spew psychocorrosive spores.
Detailed Components: Comprising nine high-quality plastic components, the kit offers a detailed and dynamic model, bringing the horror of the Tyranid Psychophage to life on your tabletop.

Assembly and Painting:
This model is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. We recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints for the best results.
Tactical Use:
Psychic Predator: Specialising in hunting and consuming psykers, the Psychophage can turn the enemy’s psychic might against them. It’s particularly effective in disrupting armies that rely heavily on psychic abilities.
Psychocorrosive Assault: The Psychophage’s ability to project surges of psychocorrosive ash makes it formidable against heavily armoured infantry or elite units, burning through physical and psychic defences.
Rapid Advancement: With its swift, scuttling limbs, the Psychophage can rapidly close in on critical targets or objectives, making it an excellent choice for aggressive assault strategies or fast-paced missions.
Strategic Role in Tyranid Armies:
In a Tyranid swarm, the Psychophage fulfils a dual role. It acts as a frontline combatant capable of tearing through enemy ranks and as a psychic countermeasure, neutralising enemy psykers and turning their abilities to the hive fleet’s advantage. Its unique skills make it a valuable addition to any Tyranid army, bringing a mix of raw power and esoteric battlefield control.
Add the Tyranids: Psychophage to your collection and unleash a new level of psychic terror upon the battlefields of Warhammer 40K.
