This is a great barrier which divides galaxy from galaxy, yet the void is not empty. Through it move great intelligences formed from countless billions of creatures – hive minds that are many linked minds. This race is known as the Tyranids, and it is arguably the greatest threat to all life in the galaxy.  \nA hive mind is a single co-ordinating will that directs an entire fleet. It is formed from untold billions of individual consciousness, from mere automatons whose minds perform only basic motor functions, to those capable of individual rational thought. The extent of this ability to think varies and depends upon the creature’s role in the hive fleet, as all Tyranid technology is based upon biological engineering and even the simplest functions are performed by genetically tailored bio-constructs. Even individual components such as doors, food hatcheries and teleportation cysts are highly modified living things, each containing a thread of the hive mind.  \nTyranids travel through the warp in a state of frozen hibernation. Normally any space-craft moving through the warp sets up vibrations which can be detected by psykers, but hive fleets are so vast that they create an impenetrable disturbance – a shadow in the warp. This shadow interferes with psychic communication, so as a Tyranid fleet approaches Astropaths are increasingly incapable of sending or receiving messages. Often, the first sign of an attack is when a star system simply stops communicating.  \nAs a hive fleet approaches a star the cold, frozen ships begin to thaw and their inhabitants slowly wake. As the ship moves through the outer edges of a star system the hive mind prepares for war, sending uncountable thousands of ships towards it. Millions of mycetic spores, each carrying a Tyranid, rain down on the planet’s surface and disgorge swarms of beasts. These creatures spread rapidly across the planet’s surface, overwhelming any resistance with waves of silent, implacable monsters that fight without regard for their own lives. A dead body is, after all, merely another source of biomass and will be absorbed.  \nWhen a planet has been taken it is stripped completely. Vast mother ships move into low orbit and begin feeding on the planet’s biosphere. Feeder tentacles rise from digestion pools, pumping broken-down organic matter into the geno-organs of the hive ships. Every single biological organism, the oceans and even the atmosphere are stripped away and ingested, reducing the planet to a barren, airless rock. Once a world has been devoured, the hive fleet moves on.  \n","cbCailVhgsY5NIFX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailVhgsY5NIFX","pdf",15317735,25,"English","# Background\n# The Tyranid Army\n## Building a Tyranid Swarm\n# Special Rules\n## Orders, Instincts and the Hive Mind Radius\n# Hive Mind Cards\n# Unit Descriptions","[{\"question\":\"What defines a Tyranid hive mind in the rulebook?\",\"answer\":\"A hive mind is a single coordinating will directing an entire fleet, formed from billions of individual consciousness.
