Note the words should and recommend. It's not official at all so if you go into tournament and opponent decides to aircraft snipe there's NOTHING YOU CAN DO short of packing your miniatures and giving your opponent automatic maximum victory.

Actually, you can have a dicussion about it in the 5-minute warm-up, or you can mark them down for "unsporting" behaviour if the tournament has such a thing, or you can just accept it.  No need to pack up your minis.

Again, playtesting will show if it's a problem.

If you make TW's effectively invinsible until rest of the swarm is destroyed or cripled don't be surprised if you see aircrafts being used as workaround. TW's already take more firepower point for point to take out than hive tyrants. Make them even tougher and people will start looking at new ways to kill 'em.

All you "have" to do is shoot out one side of a swarm if the Warriors are in the middle, there's no need to wipe out the whole swarm first; they certainly aren't invisible in there!

It's also quite easy to nail a Warrior swarm with a clipping engagement with most armies- this strips away all the non-Fearless units in an instant, leaving the Broken Warriors as easy targets for a follow-up formation to take care off.
