Yes they can outflank.
Take them as a troop choice and then have a hive tyrant with Hive Commander.

But remember, because the outflank being part of the movement phase, said Tervigon cannot spawn gants that turn so he's susceptible to focus fire...

[reallysorry]

Yes i understand that he cannot spawn any gaunts that turn. 2 tervigons can give feel no pain to each other though for a nice 5+ save am i right ?

Yeah, but one Tervi can also cast it on itself, unless I missed a rules change in that.

Why can't he spawn any gaunts? I thought there was the rule saying he does do it without any restrictions. If he is stuck in CC or what not he can still spit out gaunts.

So where are we getting he can't spit out any gaunts if he outflanks?

Davor: A Tervigon must spawn BEFORE moving, thus being unable to do so when starting off-board.

Thanks bobnik, I understand now.

Yeah I got that rule wrong once. Imagine the horror on my opponents face when I:
-Outflanked a tervigon (which is scary enough as it is)
-Moved 6"
-Spawned 15 gants without jamming, 6" from the Tervigon
-Moved 6" with the gants
-Run 4" with the gants
-Cast FnP on the gants
-Then assault with the gants

This totals: 28" of total movement from the edge of the table.

I only wish it was legal....
