I searched the forums and tried to find if this have already had been discussed, if its been sorry for starting a new thread Anyway, Id personally like to see the Tyranids as a playable race in EC (in the future), I know it might be a bit complicated to achieve. But getting "gear" for your Tyranid could be handled like evolving your Tyranid, after all the hivemind adapts and consume new DNA to evolve the race. and to the most epic thing ever. Space Hulk exploring/gathering relics etc missions where the Tyranids are other players, that would be some sweet pvp or at least in my opinion
This thread has been done, looking for the link. http://forum.eternalcrusade.com/threads/only-way-to-make-nids-a-playable-race.2466/ just saying it was shot down fast in due to tyranids wouldent work as players
