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.

Hey guys,

We've finally got the old site back, at a new location:

Tyranids.gameapollo.com

So if you want to keep up with all the drama, thrills and spills, go there now!

And because I need to fill up the 300 character limit, I must now ramble aimlessly!  We have trained velociraptors to fight crime on our behalf.  However, chaos theory suggests that should we attempt to turn them into a themepark, the frog DNA we used to repair their genetics will cause them to create breeding populations on their own, causing untold chaos and devastation when an industrial spy attempts to make off with samples and shuts the fence off while it rains.  In fact, chaos theory in general dictates that whenever Tyranosaurs are on the loose in any movie about such things, it will be raining.

I don't see why it wouldn't. You'd just need to know which directory to install it to.

I think it's just as fun to beat up the 'nids as to play as them.

This is because the original game's AI sucks, plain and simple. Our AI is made by Thudmeizer, who I believe has done AI for pretty much every large mod. It's far more intelligent in making it's choices, so the higher difficulties ARE difficult.
