IVING ORTRE
A Living Fotess is a ippling mass of rock-had chitin and serated claws that advances
unstoppably towads the enemy line. Tyrant Guard are bred speccally to soak up
enemy repower, none more so than those who form the walls ofthe foress itse Eventhe Hive Tyants they guad and the Hive Guard that afford them angedrepower have
specially reinforced chitin plates. Should its peternaturally shap senses detect an
incoming threat the Living Fotess swly locks its chitin plates together and hunkes
down, becoming a basion offootthick carapace Likened by the Elda and the Imperials
alike to a walking bunker, a Living Fotess is such a esilient theat that nothing shot of
a direct hitom a Titans primary weapon o a Vortex grenade can dispose of itfor good.
