A new Tyranid rules release is here from Black Library, but just how new are these datasheets for warhammer 40k?
Source Black Library
The Phodian Annihilation Swarm $11.99
iOS Edition $12.99
The vicious war in the Cryptus system included a battle between the Blood Angels under Captain Karlaen and the remnants of an initial swarm on the world of Phodia. Now you can download and use the rules for this Phodian Annihilation Swarm for your games of Warhammer 40,000.
READ IT BECAUSE
This Dataslate contains a number of named units to use in your Tyranids army, along with a powerful formation that gives them additional abilities. Alternatively, you can use the Phodian Annihilation Swarm by itself as a force in its own right. The choice is yours.
DESCRIPTION
When the Blood Angels descended upon Phodia, its defences had all but been overrun. The Hive Mind had turned from conquest to consumption, and the ruins thronged with swarms of digestion organisms. However, broods of Tyranids still remained, hunting down and devouring the remaining survivors. The Blood Angels classified these beasts as the Phodian Annihilation Swarm, and it was these bio-horrors that gathered to repel their invasion… This dataslate provides a formation datasheet for the Phodian Annihilation Swarm, plus datasheets for the units that comprise it, along with all the special rules, psychic powers and wargear you need to use this formation in your games of Warhammer 40,000.
CONTENTS
- 3 datasheets: The Children of Cryptus, Phodian Hive Warriors and The Beast of Phodia
- Phodian Annihilation Swarm formation datasheet
- Rules for the weapons and biomorphs used by the models in the formation
- Tyranids special rules and psychic powers
ABOUT THIS EDITION

I scowered my Shield of Baal books to no avail, these datasheets were not included in Leviathan, or Exterminatus. However it turns out the datasheets from the Deathstorm box set itself
Seems like that is the same dataslate preview above, yes?
Are these rules that strong to need a reprint? Find out in our first look review below from 2014.
