Quick pen on paper illustration of a Zoanthrope from this morning.

Nice. Welcome to the Hive.

How would you like to be a group of guardsmen who had to haul a daemon-possessed Zonthrope across the galaxy with a less-than-pristine geller field?

Can the tyranids become demon possessed? Was kinda under the impression that their Hive Mind made them immune to chaos's gaze. Otherwise, you'd think they'd get along better.

I'm pretty sure they're safe from that particular threat.  To quote the Tyranids Codex, page 29: "Casting their otherworldly perceptions across Shadowbrink, the Daemon
 lords’ confusion turned to outrage at the seething tide of aliens that choked the surface
 and skies. These creatures had no souls to corrupt, manipulate or twist. They could no
 more be led into damnation than a lump of rock."

No souls, no immaterium-reflection for the Daemons to grab hold of.  No way to tunnel inside.  At least, that's my understanding.

You have not read, "All Guardsman Party"
They are a series of stories about a group of guardsmen, very funny and awesome

Nice catch. I learn more about the fluff here than from my reading. I only ever skim the fluff in the codexes, not really my thing. I like it and all, but I spend most of my time trying to make the rules work. Probably why I'm usually not outraged when they don't match.
