A short time ago the WorthPlaying crew posted an extensive preview on Dawn of War II. They go into some detail on a variety of aspects of the game including gearing and customizing your squads, the campaign, and even Tyranid unit AI:
“Toss a grenade over a wall into a group of Tyranids with a synapse creature, and they will immediately recognize it as a weapon, move to avoid it, and search out the attacker who launched it. Use a sneak attack to eliminate the synapse creature before tossing in a grenade, and the reaction is quite different. The individual Tyranids won’t know that the grenade is a threat. Some may ignore it. Others may sniff it. But they won’t run, and when it blows up, it takes out most of the group.” - WorthPlaying
Fighting against the Tyranids is going to be a blast, if you’re thoughtful in how you go about it. The article also comes with a boatload of screenshots, so give it a look.
