Brood: The brood consists of between 3 and 9 Tyranid Warriors.

Errata — Chapter Approved: Codex: Tyranids Q&A (v2.0): A Warrior taking a venom cannon or barbed strangler still picks one bio-weapon from the standard list above as well — the heavy weapon option replaces only one of the Warrior's usual two bio-weapon choices, it doesn't leave the Warrior armed with just the heavy weapon and nothing else.
The Tyranid Warrior brood may be equipped with up to two biomorph enhancements chosen from the following list at the points cost indicated/per model.
- Flesh hooks – 1 pt
- Implant attack – 4 pts
- Extended carapace (+1 Sv) – 3 pts
