Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

And to represent the different Fleet (since they're allied, not the same), none of the Allied FOC could contain the same units as in the Primary FOC!

Do you think they know they taste like chicken? I'd lean towards no, otherwise they would eat each other and leave none for us. It would be a bad day for the Hive Mind.

"There is a cancer eating at the Imperium. With each decade it advances deeper, leaving drained, dead worlds in its wake. This horror, this abomination, has thought and purpose that functions on an unimaginable, galactic scale and all we can do is try to stop the swarms of bioengineered monsters it unleashes upon us by instinct. We have given the horror a name to salve our fears; we call it the Tyranid race, but if is aware of us at all it must know us only as Prey."

Standard FOC is 2 HQ's.
Fluff-wise I doubt Tyranids even have taste.
Taste was evolved so you spit out things that are not good for you. McDonalds then evolved to pervert that whole mechanism. Tyranids eat anything anyway, they have no need for tastebuds...

They spit acid on stuff or mulch up their own ripper swarms... not much for taste.

They get mulched up by their own rippers rather. Give the tyranids a break, no matter how well they do what they must, they'll get eaten by gigantic tenias ...

You take two Hive Tyrants for your HQ choices and give them both wings. Not sure how that was confusing
