The Tyranids are a devouring alien swarm from beyond the known galaxy. Powered by the vast, ineffable intellect of the Hive Mind, its tendrils penetrate new systems with each passing hour. These determined meta-predators cannot be reasoned with, bought, or put to flight. They seek only to despoil every new world they encounter, devouring every bit of biomass to fuel the relentless advance of the hive fleets and leaving dead, airless husks in their wake.
Infinitely adaptable, the Tyranids possess no mechanical technology. Instead, their weapons and wargear are symbiotic or parasitic organisms, bonded to their wielders and capable of annihilating their prey with showers of bio-acid, living projectiles, and devastating psionic energies. From seething masses of warring organisms to malevolent leader beasts and walking battle tank-sized monsters, tyranid swarms are as nightmarish as they are unstoppable.
