DOW2 was already looking like the RTS to get our collective knickers in a twist about, but the recent revelation of hot Tyranid action really sets our nerdish hearts a-flutter. Here they are in living technicolour, together with the game’s (slightly nervous, bless his socks) Lead Designer Jonny Ebbert talking about the thinking behind them, and how Relic kept the ‘nids’ inclusion a secret all this time. They’re “the most special race in the universe”, apparently. I know I wouldn’t call a Carnifex ’special’ to his face. Oh, and their behaviour’s inspired by Jurassic Park, oddly.
