Spore Mines

“!!!”

Spore Mines are used by the Tyranids as living, floating mines which explode if any non-Tyranid lifeform gets too close to one. Spore mines possess a rudimentary animal intelligence, are full of poisons, toxins, viruses and chemicals and are covered in sensitive feelers which seek out heat and vibrations.
