Grabber-Slasher


Grabber-Slashers are small tyranids that are probably ripper hybrids they also use DNA from Orks to have algal blood, this allows them to shapeshift slowly using its victims DNA. They can always return to their orignal form but the process takes about 24 hours. They have very muscular tails that they use to catapult themselves at targets that they grab and the slash with a spike located in their hip. The spike is thrust into the victims neck decapitating them. Theese qualitys make them perfect assasins and they are used on targets selected by more intelligent servants of the hive mind.

New Ability Rules:
Assasin:
Before the game the controler of the Tyranid may pick one enemy charicter, the grabber-slasher is treated as having frenzy ignoreing all charicter exept for the chosen one even if that charicter is out of sight this is active as soon as the target is seen. The grabber-slasher will not leap until its leap will bring it down on the target when it will leap and use its grab and slash attack.

Leap:
The grabber-slasher is adept a leaping, when 10 feet or less away from its enemy it may jump on the enemy, this is not counted as a risky action. When they land they are counted as charging the enemy.

Grab and Slash:
After a grabber-slasher makes a leap it may make an grab attack on its opponent if this attack is paaryed then then grabber slasher is placed back D6 feet away from the oponent if they hit obsticlae then they stop and are stunned for as many turns that they had inches left to go. If the attack hits then it does no damage and the combat starts as normal exept the the oponant is counted as having their chest, abdomen and head entangled as if by a webber but they do not afixiate and all they can do is atempt to pull it off whitch takes a strenth test at minus 30. The grabber-slasher attacks with a sything talon in its abdoman this is a normal attack at double its currant form weapon skill this uses the following location table:
D6 Roll 1 2-5 6
Location Abdoman Chest Head
If the grabber-slasher is ripped of then combat cotinues and the grabber-slasher fights as normal.

Shapeshifter:
Forevery level of injury it causes, it may add 10 to one of it's stats at the end of the turn if that's the highest stat of the person it's attacking - so if it attacks a space marine and causes two levels of damage, it gains +20 S. It could also have a rule that takes 5 away from the equivelant of the target's lowest stat. Wp, Sg, Nv and LD stats are ignored for this ability. This may only be used 3 times on each victim.
