<div class="IPBDescription">Ideas</div> Okay, been having a discussion with some of the guys over in #byns on Quakenet and we put our heads together for some ideas for the Tyranids. Thus far, we have come up with:

<b>Skulk</b>: <a href='http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/citadelminiatures/Tyranids/Tyranids_Troops/Hormagaunts.htm' target='_blank'>http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/...Hormagaunts.htm</a>
<b>Gorge</b>: <a href='http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/citadelminiatures/Tyranids/Tyranids_Heavy_Support/Biovore.htm' target='_blank'>http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/...ort/Biovore.htm</a>
<b>Lerk</b>: <a href='http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/citadelminiatures/Tyranids/Tyranids_Fast_Attack/Gargoyles.htm' target='_blank'>http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/...k/Gargoyles.htm</a>
<b>Fade</b>: <a href='http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/citadelminiatures/Tyranids/Tyranids_Elites/Lictor.htm' target='_blank'>http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/...ites/Lictor.htm</a>
<b>Onos</b>: <a href='http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/citadelminiatures/Tyranids/Tyranids_Heavy_Support/Carnifex.htm' target='_blank'>http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/...rt/Carnifex.htm</a>

Does anyone else have any ideas?

    Why dont make a Event Horizon pack... Nice if you havnt got broadband and never go to LAN events... You can just play with yourself and pretend there are wierd things =P


    Yeah... Tyranids and Space Marines would be cool but i prefer Aliens (from Aliens) =P

    <b>legion / gimpeh:</b> Tyranid conversions were discussed a while ago and I think they came up with the same choices. Although nobody started working on them, and I wouldn't get my hopes up for it either.

    I think the Tyranid Warroir would make a better fade because they carry venom cannons, devourer and others plus they have claws and generaly fit the fade quite well i think, but thats what i think.

    Tyranid warriors would be the best choice for fades.
    Maybe it could be converted so the babbler is a ripper, but babblers use the lvl1 model <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
    I dont like space marines however, i prefer imperial guard but they dont fit as well with the space conflict theme (ie theyre not used as much as marines for storming space ships)

    Yeah... They would fit much better then AL|ENS but Im a much bigger fan of AL|EN than Warhammer...

    But Warhammers cool to

    Needed some money so I sold all of my Space Marines =(

    Rico, good call. You got any more reference pictures for any modellers who would be interested in taking up the task?

    The problem withstands that we do not have any modelers willing to take up projects suggested in the forums.

    i think the skulk orriginally suggested would be a great one! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
