So I recently came into possession of a Harridan. Fantastic model, love the idea of a massive Tyranid flyer, and overall challenging to build/pin, but I have a few questions. Wasn't sure whether or not to post this here or in tactics, but I figured if I threw in a few questions about completing the model you guys wouldn't mind. Anywho...
How the hell do these things work? By that I mean, where are the rules for a Flying Gargantuan Creature? I have the new Imperial Armour, but they don't go into detail. Some people say it moves "exactly as a superheavy flyer" but what does that mean? Can it vector strike? If so, is it S6, or S10? How far can it move? Do Gargantuans still get FNP? I'm totally blind on this thing, which is a shame because I desperately would like to complete/field it. If anyone knows the answers to these questions and would like to help me out, I'd also appreciate knowing what book has that info, just so I can tell my opponents what the thing is doing.
And finally, questions on the model. The wings, should they be magnetized, pinned, or just glued to the model? Also, has anyone had any luck magnetizing the Gargoyle brood pieces to their underbelly? I figure I'd want to be able to take that off to remind me when it's disembarked the Gargoyles.
Oh, and do they work? I heard one guy at my local shop say they were "the best superheavy in the game", which I strongly doubt, but I'm curious if they're good, or just another Hierodule variant.
