I can't get your point. Could you explain? What kind of monsters?

I would assume he means comparable buildings/units from the biter faction, sort of like the Zerg from Starcraft.

I would imagine that playing as the biters you wouldn't be able to control your attacks that specifically, it would be really unbalanced (as you pointed out, a single track removed and down goes the rail network.)

It is a really neat concept though, I would definitely love to see it. It would probably need some new mechanics for biter behavior though, maybe bringing in other biter nests under your control as well as expanding, there would probably need to be a special resource gathering or mana accumulation that they use... lots of things to consider!
