Gargoyles, Harpies, and 'Gaunts. Oh My!

After seeing the following article by Kirby over on 3++ is the new black I've decided to provide links to some useful resources such as the Tyranid reviews by Stelek and AbusePuppy. Hopefully it will help players to better understand the Tyranid Codex. Because posts like this are just plain stupid:
Tournament point of view:

The best competetive lists you can make are broadly average. They'll play against Vulkan marines and most power armor in a fair fight, most Eldar and everyone else that likes to hang around in the middle of the field. However they will seriously struggle against Orks, Imperial Guard, Twin Lash Chaos. Against competetive Space Wolves they possess a chance of survival far lower than that of a Snowball hell filled with fiery anti-freeze.

Worst than that though is the fact that all Tyranid army lists are pretty much the same. There's only a handful of units that really perform on the average-to-good scale and the rest are dire, overpriced or a complete liability.
