Too bad this entire event was Non-Canon, but good effort on the LP Alien.

The ending narration really seems to care about the humans for some reason. I mean, I know the game is being played by humans, but they didn't choose to play AS the humans, right?

The narrative device of the campaign is that it's an Imperial scholar telling the story of the Dark Crusade on Kronus. IIRC there's unused dialogue in the game's files that make it more explicit, citing each victory narration as being from an Imperial history book.

One thing that I really dislike about the early Dawn of War games is the complete lack of Tyranids, heck Soulstorm manages to have nearly every race except Tyranids and the endless number of unique space marine chapters. What's especially annoying is Dawn Of War 2 does have them but I hate almost everything about the multiplayer of that game and find it a poor representation of Tyranids anyway, I think the Dawn of War resource method would've worked if like the Necrons they had only one resource but they went the other way, instead of power they use a version of requisition called Biomass. Although the Last Stand is great and the Playable Hive Tyrant in that game is a massive Beast that just walks all over the enemy units, which is pretty accurate.

It's kinda hard to do them justice in a game about small skirmishes.

 Wot a rubbish ending that was. Da Tau winnin' da game? Buncha rot, dat is. Oi, you dere. Yeah, boss? You get dat package sent off like I askered yer to? Yeah, put it right in the mail, I did. Heh heh heh, good, good. And did yer use express post? What? No, boss, just da regular mail. You wot? I, uh, I used der regular mail. You soddin idiot! Whaddya have ta go and do dat for? I, I, I thought I'd save us a coupler bucks! You filthy grot-lover. You've messed up me new Waaagh! They said it should only take a week at most. And you believed them? You got squigs fer brains? Da Kronus Post is da worst in da galaxy. "A week at most." Man alive. Might as well take a vacation. I'm sorry, boss. Ya, well, sorry ain't gonna make it right, will it? Will it??? N-no, it won't. Dat's right. It won't. Now get out of me sight. *a few weeks later, in Or'es Tash'n*  O'Kais, you've received a package. No return address on it. It's pretty beat up. And it smells. Oooo, stuff! Gimme, gimme, gimme! O'Kais, what is it? O'Kais? Uh, O'Kais? B-by the Ethereals. I--I'm going to need some time alone. Leave me. O, okay? So it has come to this...

A fight over an entire sector as part of the campaign would work really well as a motivation for Tyranids, and give a fairly unique ending. It helps that I think the Dawn of War 1 system would've worked way better for Tyranids as you can have them slowly taking over the map with Tyrannoformation and building up bigger and more monstrous creatures as they get more biomass, or just an endless swarm of really small creatures.
