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 everyone.

Firstly, I'd like to apologise for taking so long to get around to putting this up. I should have done this sooner.

We know you're all waiting for the 0.45 release, and if you haven't read the comments section yet then you may also be wondering what's going on with our website.

Here's the info:

A few weeks back there was a small explosion in a certain server building in the US, which knocked down a whole bunch of people's websites including some of Filefront's. Of course, we host on Filefront, so that causes issues for us. We're a little annoyed at how long they're taking to fix the hosting issues, but we can't do much more than we've done to make them hurry up.

We were also intending on releasing 0.45-DC this week, so this is doubly annoying in that respect.

So I'm in the process of putting up a backup forum (Tyranids.freeforums.org) that we can operate out of until they put our server back online. Feel free to head on over there and sign up.
