Tentaculats are very similar to a Chryssalid. These big brain creatures have the same ability to proliferate by zombifying their targets into mindless walking incubators for their young. They are only found in water and are generally found guarding Dreadnaughts, Terror Ships or alien structures. Tentaculats are able to raise or lower their elevation in the water with impunity. In short: Underwater flying Chryssalids.
Methods of Dispersal : Phosphorous rounds, explosives and a healthy dose of luck.
