Worshippers of a dark power called the Eightfold Watcher, these strange and sinister warriors have wrought dark rituals of tainted arachnid blood and varanite upon their flesh to alter their form to be a dark mirror of their master.
Unit Size: 13 Points: 110
Battlefield Role: None
Each model in a Tarantulos Brood unit is armed with Brood Weapons and Envenomed Projectiles.
BROODMASTER: 1 in every 13 models in this unit must be a Broodmaster. Add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of that model’s melee weapons. In addition, Broodmasters can
issue commands to their own unit.
SPIDER SWARMS: 3 in every 13 models in this unit must be Spider Swarms. Spider Swarms are armed with Venomous Bites instead of Brood Weapons and Envenomed Projectiles.
Skittering Ascent: Through profane and flesh-altering rituals the warriors of the Tarantulos Brood can scuttle across terrain with the speed and skill of a true arachnid.
When this unit makes a move, it can pass across
terrain features in the same manner as a model that can
fly.
Creeping Summons: The Broodmasters of the Eightfold Watcher have a strange and dark symbiosis with the swarms of venomous spiders that accompany them, calling forth an ever-growing horde that can overwhelm the enemy.
At the start of your
hero phase, you can return D3 slain Spider Swarms to this unit for each Broodmaster in this unit.
