Well, it is 451 point minimum, but I defy anyone to find a 451 point detachment
capable of hurting someone more.

You may want to split the biovore into 2 detats. they only have a 45 cm range, and a
formation that large may keep the rear biovore from reachning targets. Also, you can
get 4 free BM's from 2 groups of ten.
