Barbgaunts

Barbgaunts is a Infantry unit in the Tyranids faction for Warhammer 40k.

5-10 Barbgaunts

Barbgaunts are little more than living weapons, their bodies and bio-cannons slaved to the will of a pulsating ganglio-parasite that piggybacks them into battle. There, they unleash volleys of chitinous barbs that detonate with the fury of violent muscle-spasms and transfix nearby victims with hails of jagged projectiles.

Standard kit: Every model is equipped with: barblauncher; chitinous claws and teeth.
