PROLOGUE

From 1998‐2005, I had the fortune to be one of the group of internal playtesters for Games

Workshop called “The order of the Techpriests”. Our group, had our own password protected

website, where Andy Chambers, Gav Thorp, Alessio Cavatore, and Toumas Pirinen would post beta

version of new rules and we would each have weekly games and debate the results with the game

designers. New

armies

like

Sisters

of

Battle

and

Tau

were

developed,

Cityfight

came

out.

Mordehim

was released. White Dwarf was full of crazy scenarios, DYI modeling tips, and rules for new armies.

It was during what I consider to be the Golden Age of Games Workshop.

During this same time a single new contender for the Wargame crown came out and for a time it

looked like it had a chance. Target Games produced Warzone, and fast paced skirmish game that

was radically different than 40K. It was a squad based game, where you took turns during a battle

(Called I Go, You Go), rather than had your whole army go at once.

We discussed this, and many other of Warzone’s game mechanics on the Geeklist. Gav Thorpe was

particularly enamored with the I Go / You Go system, and the fact that by splitting from six sided

dice,

you

allowed

yourself

more

variation

in

troop

types.

These

ideas

led

Gav

to

propose

a

radically different 40K game than the one we have today to the top Games Workshop brass. It was

deemed too big a departure from the status quo, and was canned.

Shortly after that, GW Legal closed down external playtesting. I got a job with a suit and tie, got

married, had children, sold off almost all of my gaming stuff and moved on with my life.

In late 2013, an old friend from the wargame group called and told me that the Warzone rights had

been sold, and someone was producing new rules and models. He lived locally, and had bought two

armies. One, he wanted to give to me. It had been a decade since I had wargamed, but nostalgia

crept in.

Since Wargaming

is

(slightly)

cheaper

than

having

a mistress,

I choose

indulge

my

midlife

crisis

with

childish things. Warzone Resurrection has been more fun than I have had in many years. Its not

just enjoying the modeling and the painting, the Warzone rules are brilliant. Warzone resurrection

is fast paced, streamlined, and fun. It has the same old “I move a squad, you move a squad” rules

set that allows each model to count, and most games come down to the last man. Of course, It

does not hurt the new Warzone CAD designed models are gorgeous as well.

Ive purchased quite a number of Warzone Cybertronic, and have enjoyed the game immensely. I

started going through the attic, looking for old bits to make into scenery. There I found my old

Tyranid army that I thought had been long sold off. Of course I wanted to play it. With the rules of

Prodos’s Aliens vs. Predator wargame not out yet, I needed to figure out a way to proxy my old

models using

the

new

Warzone

rule

set.

So

I sat

down

and

wrote

this,

a “Counts

As”

army

list

for

using Tyranids in Warzone Resurrection. This list is not a fan creation, its 100% official Warzone

rules. Only the names and descriptions have been changed from Brotherhood to make them

compatible with Tyranid descriptions. In other words, its completely legal.

Enjoy.

RULE CONVERSIONS

This supplement is a “Counts As” supplement using the Brotherhood Army List found in the back of

the Warzone rulebook. Only the names and the descriptions have changed. No actually game rules,

character stats, options, or points costs have been modified or adjusted in any way or form. So

essentially your just using different Tyranid models to represent Brotherhood troop types. It breaks

down to this.

This works VERY well. It allows so many things that just FEEL like Tyranids. Lictors are nigh invisible,

and ambush unsuspecting guardsmen, an all Genestealer Army, with Genestealers that crawl out of

the terrain. Powerful Tyrant Guard that protect your HQ, devastating Dakka‐fexes, and a Flyrant

(Flying Tyrant). In addition the brotherhood psychic powers can be used to accurately represent

the powerful psychic powers of the Tyranid hive mind.

In the end, there was only ONE item that needed tweaking to make things fit. BASE SIZE. Bases in

40K don’t matter, but they are critical to the game of Warzone. Most 40K small models are on

25mm bases, which is fine for Warzone’s 30mm small bases. All of the “Special Characters” of the

tyranids (Old One Eye, Deathleaper, Zoanthrope, Venomthrope, etc..) are all on 40mm bases, which

perfectly matches

the

Warzone

40mm

hero

base.

Even

the

Carnifex

and

Hive

Tyrants

are

on

60mm

bases, which is only slightly larger than Warzones 50mm Large Base. The tiny (.25”) increase they

get in close combat range is more than offset by the increase in the massive facing they present.

Because the models are so much larger, have less cover and much easier to draw line of site to.

However there was an issue with base size on two squads. Lictors and Raveners are on 40mm

“medium” bases. Their Warzone “counts as” models, Mortificators and Sacred Warriors are 30mm

“small” based models. Rules for “small” and “medium” based figures are different. To fix this I have

created the following Special Rule for Lictors and Raveners:

Rapid Growth: Some Tyranid creatures are grown rapidly in bio vats on the planet surface. Because

of this

they

appear

more

powerful

than

they

are.

While

these

models

are

mounted

on

a 40mm

base, they are treated as Small Based models for ALL THINGS, including but not limited to Engage

Bonus, power effects, Stunning, climbing and falling, combat actions, jumping, and any and all

other effects.

Ultimately you need to agree with your opponent, but odds are you won’t be playing these in a

tournament anyway. In order to compensate for the 5mm radius increase in base size, you reduce

the close combat range of Lictors and Raveners by 1/4 of an inch. This makes things legal.

DISCOVERY OF THE SWARM

Lord Inquisitor Hamlikar,

Blessings of the light be upon you and upon us all. Included is my report on the new life forms recently

emerging from the jungles of Venus. Our Brotherhood troops have engaged in several skirmishes with these

deadly creatures.

On

one

hand,

our

greatest

fears

are

not

realized.

These

creatures

are

not

a new

wave

of

unknown agents of Darkness. However the conclusions our scientists have come up with are almost worse.

These voracious creatures may originate outside out solar system.

You are of course, aware of the battles last year when a new Dark Citadel appeared in Magellan crater on

Ishtar Terra. Through great and terrible sacrifice our troops were able to purge and close that demonic

fortress. What we later learned was the rising of this Citadel seemed to crack what was originally thought to

be a large earth mound. We have since come to realize this was a covered bio‐mass that may be some sort of

organic interstellar ship. Based off of the analysis of the strata around the findings, our scientists estimate

this ship to be over a hundred and fifty thousand years old, much older than the Terraforming of Venus.

How this ship survived the terraforming, or how its inhabitants could have survived so long is beyond our

keen. What

we

do

know

is

during

the

purging

of

this

bio

‐ship,

some

of

the

inhabitants

escaped

into

the

jungles. There they seem to be reproducing at a rapid rate.

Physiologically, the creatures appear to use some sort of Biological technology. By consuming organic

material, they then convert this mass into weaponry grown out of their very bodies. They also seem to have

the ability to genetically mutate themselves to rapidly adapt to any of our attacks. Worse, we think they may

have some level of rudimentary intelligence. Some evidence points to the possibility of a telepathic and

pheromone based hive mentality, like ants.

The only small shining gift out of this is that these creatures seem to despise the Dark Legion. The leading

theory is the Dark Symmetry interferes or causes feedback to their hive mentality. We have observed these

creatures ambushing and attacking the servants of the Dark Creatures with a ferocity and fervor that equals

our own.

Whenever

Dark

Arts

are

cast

by

the

Legion,

it

seems

to

send

these

creatures

into

a frenzy.

This

could explain why the rising of the citadel awoke the dormant creatures. Unfortunately as soon as the

Servants of Darkness were defeated, these creatures turned on our observers with equal hatred.

While many have called for us to reveal the presence of these creatures to the other corporations to aid in

their extermination, I would counsel otherwise. I strongly feel that we need to significant resources to

capture and observe these alien creatures. If there was a possibility we could contain, and safely breed such

creatures, think of the devastation if we launched them onto the surface of Pluto. Such a terrible bio‐weapon

could wipe the Dark Brotherhood from the planet, leaving us only to destroy any surviving creatures from

orbit.

It is a dangerous plan, yes, but It could mean the end of the Dark Legion and massive reduction in the

number of

casualties

of

Brotherhood

troopers.

We

must

work

to

keep

the

existence

of

these

creatures

secret

from the other corporations, lest they get the same idea to use these creatures as weapons against each

other.

Lord Inquisitor, please consider my plea. A moment’s pause in reaction, could grant us a significant weapon.

Yours in the light,

Arch Inquisitor Yutani





TYRANID PSYCHIC POWERS

Tyranid Hive Mind: The Tyranids are a powerful hive mind that keeps in contact with each other

through a constant psychic connection. Removal from the hive mind means certain death for all but

a handful of Tyranid creatures. To represent this, unless stated otherwise in the Squad’s

description, every Tyranid Squad must be upgraded with 1 or 2 Psychic powers at the stated costs.

A squad may take Psychic powers from one Psychic Power path only. Lords and Advisors attached

to Squads must purchase their own Psychic powers, and can cast their own Powers only. The Squad

may cast only the powers it is upgraded with (not those attached to the Lord or Advisor.

A squad can cast each of their purchase Powers once per turn. Any model from the Squad can cast

their Squad’s Psychic Power. A Model may attempt to cast each type of Psychic Power once per

turn. Psychic (B) or (D) type powers do not cost Action Points to cast. A Squad can only be targeted

one by each Power (B) or (D) type of power per game turn, unless stated otherwise. When a

Tyranid squad is in an army led by a Tech type Warlord, the Warlord should be considered a Psychic

warlord for selecting Tyranid Psychic Powers.

Depending on the warlord type (Close Combat, Ranged, or Psychic/Tec) the following additional

effects apply to all friendly Squads using or affected by Psychic Powers:

Close Combat Warlord: Any Squad affected by one or more B type Powers gains an

additional (+1) modifier to STR and CC.

Ranged warlord: All S type Psychic Powers gain (+1) modifier to St and all Models in a

Squad that successfully cast an S type power gain +1 to RS.

Psychic Warlord: Failed attempts at casting Psychic Powers (but not rolls of natural 20) can

be rerolled with a (‐4) modifier to WP. If the reroll is failed, the casting model receives a

STUN effect.

Passive: Contempt (Dark Legion): The Dark Symmetry of the Dark Legion creates a painful screeching

resonation in the psychic hive-mind of the Tyranids. The Tyranids will do whatever they can to wipe out the

Dark Legion to clear their hive mind. All Tyranids have the Contempt (Dark Legion) special ability.



PATH OF MENTAL DOMNIANCE

means, to perform a Move, Engage, Shooting or

Close Combat Action. An engaged Tyrant Guard
