This modification adds the Tyranid race, from the tabletop war-game Warhammer 40k from which Dawn of War was based on, to the game. The Tyranids are an alien race, threatening the imperium from the edge of the galaxy, living only to feast upon the flesh of their foes. They are a fearsome adversary, but an even better ally! That's why our mod allows you fight with and for the great Tyranid race, swarm the enemy with hundreds of hormagaunts, stamp on your foes with the huge carnifex and devour your opponent from within with the deadly lictor. We aim to show players of Dawn of War what the fantastic Tyranids are and attempt to keep as true to the feel of the race as possible.
With Filefront going down, the Tyranid Mod's hosting is going to disappear. This is a general update for what we're doing about this and where you can find us in the exodite period.

Hey guys.
Yes, we're still kicking around - we're waiting on a last bit of code from our coder before we can release 0.5 (not 1.0 like we'd thought).
However, the pressing issue at the moment is that in about 4 or 5 days, Filefront is going to cease to exist. This means DoWFiles and the Tyranid Mod forums will go down too.
So just so everyone knows, I've reopened the backup forum which you can find here:
Tyranids.freeforums.org
It's a bit of a set-back, and we're spending the rest of the week doing a flurry of backups of everything we'll need to take with us from the site... but the Tyranid Mod will live on.

Why are they shutting down? What am I gonna do without them! :(
ouch, to be honest i didn't hear about filefront closing down. Wish you luck guys.
Apparently it's due to the economic downturn.
We'll see what we can do in the meantime.
