	Genestealer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Genestealers are known for their incredible agility and great skill in close combat, making them a much feared foe on the battlefields of Warhammer 40,000; often a rule for opposing armies is to destroy the Genestealers first since they are considered the core of a Tyranid army.
		Genestealers perform two roles for the Tyranid armies: first, they are often found in the Tyranid armies acting as assault troops; second, they can be found as an advance force of the Tyranids, aiding planetary invasions through the use of their unusual reproduction method.
		Genestealers reproduce by introducing their genetic material into a host from another species; this is normally a human, but can theoretically be any humanoid race (which would include Eldar or Orks).

	WarVault - Necromunda
		Genestealer cults are composed of individuals who have been subjected to genestealer genetic control. Even victims who do not host new genestealers and hybrids themselves become pawns of the purestrain Genestealer that founded the cult.
		Genestealer cults masquerade as ordinary citizens and gangs, slowly spreading their influence through society until they can overthrow the native authorities. Whenever possible, they will infiltrate the political and military institutions of the planet to increase their power.
		Genestealer cults recruit leaders, heavies, gangers, and juves using the normal rules in the Necromunda Sourcebook. The cult may be from any of the major houses.

	Genesis of the Tyranids (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Genestealers are of a single gender, and are incapable of reproducing among themselves.
		For all the Genestealer requires is the basic genetic material which is contained in every living cell of the mate.
		A Genestealer implants its own genetic material in the form of an egg capsule, which is forced into the body of the host by an extendible ovipository normally secreted inside the head.

		The Genestealers' hairless heads are bulbous in shape, coloured the same deep purple-red as their muscles, with the creatures' fang-filled mouths and hypnotic eyes at the front.
		Though Genestealers are driven by a ferocious and all but uncontrollable need to infect victims to ensure the survival of their species, the pure Stealer restrains itself and its progeny from infecting too many Humans too fast, recognizing that the religion's too-rapid growth might arouse the suspicion of the Imperial Inquisition.
		Genestealers are attracted to psykers, and share none of the normal Human's prejudices against them, simply regarding them as exceptionally advanced specimens of the race.

	Relic Forums - Genestealers on Space Hulks
		When the genestealer population has grown to a sufficient amount, because of a good feeding ground, the psychic resonance of the brood will attract the hive ships and the planet is pretty much doomed.
		Genestealers will also breed with humnas to make inbred genestealer that, every 13 generations (i think) a purestrain genestealer will be produced, the other offspring ahve varying degrees of genestrealer parts and so they can integrate into human society relatively easily to spread the brood themsleves.
		This is a genestealer cult, xenos variations of this tactic have not occured yet, but that may be due to the fact that the nids have only met humnas in large numbers so far.

	Space Hulk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The game was set on a board made up of various corridor and room tiles which could be arranged in different orders and locked together like a jigsaw puzzle to represent the interior of derelict space ships.
		The real number of genestealers in play was hidden from the marines because they came into play as "blips" which could represent 1-3 creatures (or 0-6 in the second edition).
		These Hulks are usually infested with mutants (possible remnants of the past crew); Genestealers (as above, see also the entry on Tyranids); Orks, who like to mount guns on hulks and travel on them to invade new worlds, and sometimes worse.

	GENESTEALER RULES
		If the Genestealer player only has one model capable of using CPs and it is killed, then he must wait until he can convert another appropriate blip, otherwise any remaining CPs are lost with the death of the model.
		Genestealers will rally around the stronger members of the brood and come to their aid more often, for the strength of the brood is far more valuable than the strength of a few.
		This is a sure way for the Genestealers to mass a very powerful brood if their commanding models are allowed to remain on the board for too long.

		These are rooms or corridors that the genestealers must travel through to stop the squad from reaching its objective.
		Genestealers here generate slowly, so once the main contingent is cleared, let the marine cover the rest while your character takes care of the generator at the right end.
		This room has a Genestealer entry point to the north, and a hallway that leads east from the north end of the east wall.

		If a genestealer is on a flamed case, the player rolls 1 dice and the genestealer is killed on a throw of 2-6.
		At the end of the genestealer turn, if a creature is still in a flamed case (because the first flame didn't kill it), another roll is done and the genestealer is killed for a throw of 2-6.
		A blip with 0 genestealer is a false alarm.

	RPGnet: The Inside Scoop on Gaming
		The Genestealer player may start the game with one or two 'blips' — these are counters that have a blip on one side, and a number on the other, showing how many Genestealers are represented by that blip.
		The Genestealer player can usually feel very smug with his hordes of rampaging Genestealers, and rightly so, as most of the missions in the basic set are heavily biased in his favour.
		Genestealer was the better expansion, levelling the playing field and introducing psychic rules that made the Marines much more powerful.

		Genestealer forces find it difficult to aquire a reasonable number of heavy weapons, and many vehicles have their secondary armament removed so that it can be distributed amoung the covens.
		Genestealer Hybrid generations were abandoned in favour of a more generic structure and simply placing all Hybrids as a single troop type.
		A Genestealer Cult army is able to ally itself with local Chaos cults, both factions gaining strength from the alliance, and rules for doing this are given towards the end of the list.

	MUTANT RULES
		Comprised of a Genestealer torso and Tyranid head, this creature is also armed with a Deathspitter.
		This Genestealer has mutated so that a pair of arms on one side of its body has been replaced with a single arm weilding a Bonesword.
		This is a rare type of mutation and generally it does not produce Genestealers that are any more combat effective than their normal Purestrain Brood.

		However, the idea of a Genestealer Cult army is pretty neat, and I am sure there are some of you out there that still have the figures for them.

		It is noted however that most Genestealers travel in packs and can take control more coherently (simply by weight of numbers, as even with the accelerated growth of the hybrids, it still takes time to complete the cycle) it is believed that a cult will often operate for a hundred or more years until striking.
		Hybrids: variable, the earliest generation are virtually Genestealers (although not nearly as fast, dangerous or hardy) while the later generations are virtually as humans, and are usually given ballistic weapons to engage at range and provide cover for their comrades.
		In closing, a Genestealer cult poses a unique threat, in that their soldiers are armed with the weaponry of the imperium, and an unshakeable willingness to die for their cause.

		Genestealers were supposed to show up whenever a player moved within 12" of an Entry Point, allowing the player to shoot them before being attacked.
		Since the Genestealers were starting in cover, they would receive a 5+ cover save.

		This is also true for other armies not using Genestealer Cult rules, so Purestrain Genestealers in a Tyranid army do not get their Hypnotic Gaze.
		This is partly because a Genestealer Cult army has grown and developed in a specific environment, where some skills are honed while others atrophy, and partly due to the engineered nature of Genestealers by the Tyranids.
		A Genestealer army is built on its troops, and uses whatever vehicles and heavier support that it can scavenge and steal.

		Strike Force Sandalphon is an unusually strong and well balanced detachment created for the specific purposes of hunting down eldar pirates and genestealer / tyranid covens in the north eastern fringes of the galaxy.
		The force was initially committed to the pursuit of a genestealer patriarch whose coven in the Gothic sector was wiped out by the Dark Angels.
		As the success of the force grew in their constant search and destroy missions, they were reinforced with a significant force from the first and second companies, the former being most useful in boarding actions against suspected genestealer infested space hulks.
