*Shivers*

No you're right, I can't imagine using my last few prescious moments thinking, "I wonder how Tyranid ships reproduce, or if they do at all?"
I'd most likely be concentrating wholeheartedly on running like hell.

I'd be too busy running to the Selfdestruct button, "If I'm going down I'm gonna take you bastards with me!".

If you read the campaign upgrades it actually says that if your cruiser earns the same amount of hit points as your hiveship it becomes a hiveship.

So I guess they start as baby ships.

As for "crew"- tyranids opperate as a gestalt conciousness, so all the critters (ships included) have a psychic connection with each other that acts like one giant brain (that's from 40k).

I always thought of Tyrinid fleets as like a bacteria. It absorbs matter, then devides (i.e. a new ship from an old one deviding).

But thats just me.

In one of the Deathwatch series books they talk about how the main ship calves after consuming a world and can then create splinter fleets etc.
