"The onrushing hordes of a Tyranid swarm are a terrible sight to behold: scuttling Termagants rub shoulders with deadly Genestealers, huge Carnifexes lumber forward beside tall Tyranid Warriors in an avalanche of rattling armor plates, glittering fangs and gigantic claws. Discipline is hard to maintain against such a horrifying foe as many men are driven mad with despair or frozen with terror at their approach"

- Inquisitor Agmar: Halting the Abomination ...

March 15th 2001 The Egroup has finally approved some basic stuff, and I've decided to write up the tyranid army draft.

Ideas
I wanted to keep with the tyranids' 'mutable' theme. Therefore, all the mutable broods are listed as basic body plans. At the bottom of the list is the profile modifier for either a 'bitey' brood (e.g. hormagaunt), 'shooty' brood (e.g. termagant) or 'big shooty' brood (e.g. warriors and other 'large' broods). Broods listed as 'genofixed' may not be given any of the phenotypes.

Orders are the problem. These suckers don't have the problems associated with normal troops.
