INTRODUCTION
The book you hold is the ultimate guide to the planet-devouring xenos menace known as the Tyranids. Within, you’ll find
everything you need to assemble your own host of these nightmarish alien organisms, complete with rules for representing
several unique and voracious hive fleets, and equipping your creatures with a variety of lethal weapon symbiotes.
The Tyranids are a race of alien predators who seek to devour
every scrap of life in the galaxy. For aeons they drifted through
the intergalactic void, hibernating as they made their long
journey. Now, they have awakened, and the tendrils of their vast
hive fleets reach ever further into populated space, consuming
world after world as they advance. Within these pages you will
discover the true, horrifying scale of the Tyranid incursion, and
the untold carnage they have already wrought upon the races of
the galaxy.
The Tyranids offer tremendous options for the avid collector,
as many of their models come with an impressive variety of
horrific biomorphs and organic weapons of war from which to
choose. You can let your imagination run wild when it comes
to assembling and painting such a collection, as the colours and
patterns of the Tyranids are endlessly varied; you could choose
vibrant, aggressive colours, or opt for a dark and ominous
aesthetic. Alternatively, you could take inspiration from the
gruesome histories presented in this book, and paint your
army in the colours of one of the major hive fleets ravaging the
galaxy. Whether you wish to assemble a sky-darkening swarm of
winged horrors, a living tide of vicious warrior-organisms or a
ground-shaking stampede of towering monsters covered in thick
chitinous plate, this book will give you the options you need to
amass a truly intimidating alien host.
Contained within this book you will find everything you need to
assemble your own unique Tyranid army, and unleash it upon
the battlefield.
THE DESTROYER OF WORLDS: This section provides a grim
history of the Tyranid threat, as well as an analysis of the predatory
methods unique to the galaxy’s most ravenous hive fleets.
COLOURS OF THE HIVE FLEETS: Here you will find a showcase
of gorgeously painted miniatures and example armies, to inspire
your own Tyranid collection.
THE TYRANID SWARM: In this section you will find datasheets
for every model in the Tyranids range.
THE SHADOW IN THE WARP: Finally, this section will provide
you with additional rules, including Warlord Traits, Bio-artefacts,
Stratagems and psychic powers unique to the Tyranid hive fleets.
You will also find matched play points costs for every unit.
To play games with your army, you will need a copy of the
Warhammer 40,000 rules. To find out more about Warhammer
40,000 or download the free core rules, visit warhammer40000.com.

When the Tyranid hive fleets clash with the Daemons of Chaos, neither race is granted succour. The inconstant warp-stuff from
which Daemons are made offers the Tyranids no sustenance, while the unknowable entity of the Hive Mind is immune to terror and
daemonic corruption. Thus, these two super-predators instead battle for the right to consume or despoil the galaxy’s vast stocks of
mortal flesh, tearing each other apart in a frenzy of unsurpassed slaughter from which only one can emerge victorious.
