The Lictor Alpha is a rare variant of the Lictor genus of Tyranid, greater in strength, resilience and possessing abilities and biomorphs beyond those of its common variant.
Overview
Like the Lictor, the Lictor Alpha is an ambush and stealth organism, its camouflage allowing it to ambush and disrupt enemy infantry.1 Like its common counterpart, it utilizes pheromones to direct the swarm, but does this with greatly increased accuracy and sophistication.2 It is geared for even greater independence than other vanguard organisms, it's greater strength and resilience and increased stealth capabilties giving it the edge it needs to operate far ahead of the swarm.3
