Spore Mine Launcher

A Biovore with a Spore Mine Launcher on its back.[2]

The Spore Mine Launcher is a Tyranid Biomorph.[1]

Equipped to Biovores, as its name would suggest the Spore Mine Launcher fires Spore Mines at its target, living bombs that blanket victims in acid, poisonous gas, and shrapnel-sized chitin spines. The Spore Mine Launcher is a large cannon-like organism mounted to the back of the Biovore, and the creature fires Spore Mines by activating a powerful muscle spasm which causes the Launcher to spit a Spore Mine over great distances.[1]
