The Tyranids: Crusher Stampede refers to both a specific Army of Renown/Detachment ruleset in the Warhammer 40,000 wargame that focuses exclusively on fielding large monsters, and a physical Battleforce box set containing those miniatures. 
Rules and Lore Description
In the lore, a Crusher Stampede is a horrifying assemblage of the Tyranid species' largest and most resilient bio-organisms, unleashed by the Hive Mind to utterly annihilate particularly tough prey or enemy fortifications. 
In the game, the Crusher Stampede detachment is designed around a "monster-mash" playstyle, emphasizing the use of high-toughness, multi-wound models and restricting smaller swarm units. Key features of the rules (which vary slightly by game edition/publication) typically include: 
Increased Survivability: Monsters in the detachment often gain defensive bonuses, such as a universal invulnerable save (5++) and a reduction in incoming damage.
Objective Control (OC): Monsters usually have an increased ability to control objectives, often counting as more models for this purpose while at starting strength.
Damage Buffs: As a trade-off for their large size and high profile, wounded monsters can become more effective in combat, gaining bonuses to hit or wound rolls.
Powerful Stratagems: The detachment provides unique Command Point abilities, such as those that allow monsters to perform powerful mortal wound-dealing charges or fight again after being destroyed. 
Battleforce Box Contents
The limited-edition Crusher Stampede Battleforce box, available for pre-order and release around late November 2025, provides a collection of large Tyranid creatures at a lower price than buying them separately. The box typically includes: 
A Neurotyrant (with two Neuroloid companions) to serve as a synaptic core for the force.
A Screamer-Killer (a large, bio-plasma hurling monster).
A Tyrannofex (which can alternatively be built as a Tervigon, a unit that births smaller Termagants).
A Haruspex (a ravenous close-combat creature that can alternatively be built as an Exocrine, a long-range artillery piece).
A Maleceptor (a powerful psychic monster that can alternatively be built as a Toxicrene, a miasma-generating combatant).
