2. Buying SS can get you a beta in DOW2

hmmm. is soulstorm really worth the money??? damn, how i hate game developers nowadays force us to buy their game to play beta version for their upcoming games....

ZOMG, this is cheating la woii.. i dont have SS so how do i participate the BETA lol. blardy trick

Maybe it's a compensation for the buggy DoW:SS, woot woot, i guess they make it so DoW:SS key = beta key itself, woot i got DoW:SS liao XD.

Wot da Frag!!?? should i get SS just for the DoW2 BETA??! ??!?! cant make my mind

Yeah,the guardsman with a las gun guarding Black Library.

Lol,im getting SS when im back to Malaysia.The modders in DoW suddenly become so hardworking now after DoW2 announced.

Cant miss good stuff.

DoW2 Beta,i'll try to play online that time.Hell,i want to play online with SS or Sins now.Just the cap problem.

What are the strength of the Tyranids in the tabletop games for the Warhammer 40k universe?

They seems like very strong in the Space Hulk games whereby they can easily despatch a Terminator?

Not sure how strong are they in TT but even in a Nids mod,Genestealers are also quite strong for a T1 unit.

Hope DoW2 have them.

Tyranid is currently one of the strongest race/army in TT. The up coming 5th edition may change that but we wont know for sure.

Tyranid army is extremely customizable, compound that with generally low points in costing, large in number and lightning fast attacks in close combat they are terribly effective even in the hands of new players. Being hive minded unless all the large tyranid are dead or not around all tyranids are consider fearless.

The one that take the cheese for tyranid for the moment are their monstrous creatures. Think alien queen like creatures which can fly around and shoot bio plasma that can easily destroyer tanks and is damn bloody hard to kill and you will get the picture, and you can spam them.

Arent they similar to Orks?

Which Tyranid creature?Never heard of it.

You gotta be kidding me, tyranids are universally feared, even in TT; orks until the recently the new codex are cannon fodders.

Oh,this one.It's call Carnifex,rite?

....and Hive tyrants, which can grow wings.

Seen that before too.Looks damn cool.

Hope relic will have Nids in DoW2.

The thing is even with DOW2 alot of unique HQ option wont even hit the game
Like this terminator armored Chaplain



Hive tyrant with wings is a HQ upgrade option, much like chaos lord on jump jet.

In regards to the Tyranids, is their weakness lack of range weaponary given that their close combat effectiveness is a lot better comparable to the other races on the table top?

Thanks in advance for explaining this is because I am interested in the Warhammer 40k universe and I can't wait for next month PC Gamer to tell me.

I think another weakness of Tyranid is lack of vehicles since they are organic stuff.

Do correct me if im wrong.

Tyranids . . All you need is an Emperor Class Titan . .

And maybe a company of two of Ultramarines thanks to their experience in beating the crap out of Hive Fleet Behemoth. RIP to the 1st Company thought.

Wrong.

Tyranid's equivalent of vehicles i.e. Monstrous creatures seems to be far superior than vehicles in almost all aspect.
For example a Land Raider or a monolith can be destroyed by a lucky single shot of rockets or las canon, no such luck for a carnifex which has multiple wounds and high toughness.

There is not a single weapon in the whole game that can kill a tyranid Monstrous creature with a single shot due to their toughness and special rule except for hand held force weapons used by the likes of Grey Knight grand master or Eldar Far Seer, but you are welcome to try getting close to them.
