GETTING STARTED WITH THE TYRANIDS

Assembling, Painting, and Playing. We take you through the steps of bioengineering your own broods for the Hive Mind; from assembling to playing, with a sample army list to get you started.

Hive Tyrant

The Tyranids are without doubt the most alien race encountered by Humanity. They have been likened to a galactic locust swarm, remorselessly hungry and too numerous to stop. Tyranids are a nomadic, space-dwelling race that has migrated from beyond our galaxy in search of new resources to consume. They have discovered sustenance in abundance in the Imperium of Man and the assorted alien races now in their path. Tyranids only descend onto planets to totally strip them of bio-mass before moving on, leaving nothing but balls of scoured rock in their wake.

Collecting, painting, and fielding a brand new army for Warhammer 40,000 may seem a bit daunting at first. Fear not! On the following pages, you'll find a bunch of useful information on how to assemble your models and then give them a basic paint job with a minimal number of colours. There's even a fun scenario you can play using just a few models. This way you can start playing right away as you gradually amass your army.

It's time to get started, so gather your clippers, glue, and paints. Armies don't paint themselves, you know!

The Tyranids are a nigh-unstoppable force that devour any unfortunate organisms in their path.
