Tyranid Attack is a board game released in 1993 that was produced by Games Workshop.[1]
Description
Attack the Genestealers and their more frightening cousins, the Tyranids, in their huge living ships. Your job is to take a squad of Space Marines into the bowels of the ship and try to destroy its vital organs. The ship is not defenseless, and you could find Genestealers or the larger and more dangerous Tyranids opposing you. This time, lighter armoured but faster marines in addition to the heavily armoured Terminators are going in, but unlike the game Space Hulk, the opponents now have weapons.[1]
