Editing Setting:Transformers (section)

===Tyranids===
Although one might think that their artificial nature makes Transformers inedible to Tyranids, to do so is to underestimate their drive for raw material. They absorb minerals as readily as protein and calcium, but even beyond that, Transformers are organisms in their own right, with alien genetic materials that may be assimilated. The Transformers respond to the Tyranids with the same ferocity they show against the Orks, deploying their most powerful weapons and striving to burn them from the stars. The Decepticons and Autobots readily find a common cause, as both races see the Tyranids as needing to be exterminated. Just the prospect of an entire Hive Fleet assimilating Cybertronian biology is terrifying enough for the Imperial Inquisition to cooperate with the defence of a Transformer world.
