40K Terra - Warhammer 40k Forums - View Single Post - Questions about the life killer virus and destroying planets

I'm relatively new to 40k and all my knowledge of the way the life killer virus works is drawn from the Ultramarine Trilogy by Graham McNeil. So the life killer virus destroys all life on a planet and turns it into highly flammable goo that is ignited by orbital fire thus making the world a barren lifeless rock. So if a world were say being attacked by tyranid and the bioships were starting to feed off it, would that not be the best time to use the life killer bombs? So the virus can work its way up into there fleet. Maybe I am over thinking this. Has anyone else read the Ultramarine series?
