Prime with Ymgarls?

[Uhtin]

Hello Hive! ;D

Just a quick question, can a Tyranid Prime enter the game with a group of Ymgarl Genestealers(Dormant)?

Thanks for the replies

[Lanesend]

No. The dormant rule doesn't carry over to IC's. You could join him later but not during (dormant) deployment.

Thanks man

I experimented and ran him with a full squad without going dormant a few times and it was not bad. The opponent will know to kill them though but at least that 4 helps mitigate all guns going through the armour. You pay for dormant though and he can't do any reserves fun, as would make a mess of things in spores etc. 17 would it be? Devilgants in with a Prime isn't impossible to kill, but Marine players would lose their $#!t seeing that coming in from reserves, when all their IC can add is an extra weapon... And psychic support.. And deep strike scatter reduction.. Etc.

Synapse coming in a pile of puds from reserves is too powerful deemed GW. So we get raw deal again. Dormant Prime with Whip n Sword?! Yes please.

^ Dormant Prime would be awesome, but maybe a Broodlord for Ymgarls would be better

yummy-girl Broodlord?!!! if he has the mutations and a 3+ it would be amazing.
