"We can only speculate whether these contacts were from proto-hive fleets, a long-range scouting force, or even creatures fleeing ahead of the oncoming Tyranid fleets. All we know is that for some time now, we've been in the clutches of the Hive Mind."
==Ramblin' Snapper==
Like many other off-shoots of the Tyranid genus, the '''Ramblin' Snapper''' has adapted to its environment very well. This powerful beast can be found on many worlds, especially in the jungles of [[Death Worlds]]. Although unusually stealthy for its size and form, the Snapper's favourite tactic is to build up a little speed and trample its prey before employing its massive claws to tear them apart. This strategy is quite sound against fearful animals and those not trained to stand their ground. However, the clumsiness of this top-heavy bipedal creature can be used against it. Imperial troops that have more than a moment to react can usually dodge the beast's initial charge and can often destroy it before it gets its bearing and returns to finish the job.
