Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лип 2024
- In this episode we cover what a Tyranid invasion ACTUALLY looks like from the perspective of an Imperial Governor named "Poor Stooge" and his planet of "Megaded". Each phase gets worse and worse and we will break down all of them.
We also cover why every faction fears the Tyranids, how they could be the end of everything as we know it, and why they really want to have Guilliman for lunch. Literally.

Idk if you'll see this or not, but thank you for producing 40k content in the way that you do. I love this mature and freezer-thaw style of horror you present. It listens like Joe Rogan.
Buggs buggs buggs in the comments
Why do they need a whole Primarch? Couldn't they just give them some Primarch juice? Or maybe one eats a hand and then POOF!
Funnfact. Both chaos and tyranids tries to invade catachan. The populace and wildlife was so unbelievably dangerous and violent, that the chaos invasion was stomped out before a indomitus fleet could arrive and the tyrids were wiped out by the wildlife before the fleet could make its way there.
Which planet is this? And where can i learn more??
@@christopherflores6541 Catachan Jungle Fighters
It was an Ork and Chaos invations. No Nid attack on Catachan exists in the official lore.
@@alvarizimoall information about the events of the cstachan earthquakes is heresy!
@@alvarizimothat’s a retcon then, Catachan Devils were supposed to be feral Nids
My favourite bit of Nid lore is that Genestealer Cults sell the belief that the fleet is a sort of messiah coming to liberate them from the Imperium's tyranny. It isn't until the battle for the planet is won that they learn that they're going into the decomp pools just like the guardsmen and dead bugs.
If I may add something to this: i remember reading that those who are part of the cult "get the Veil lifted" when the invasion is in the final completion stages. When the bugs come down and deliverance seems near, cultists regain their composure and collectively think *"what's happening?! Whats going on?! What have I done?!"*
@@oniemployee3437 Just off the top of my head, it makes sense that controlling the cultists might actually require a lot of psychic effort, and once the invasion has begun that effort needs to be put toward controlling the *real* Tyranids.
Though it also makes the genestealers a tragic victim. They never "chose" to serve the Tyranids - their free-will was psychically co-opted.
Some cults just work alongside the Tyranids, so for them the promise isn't hollow, it depends on what strain of Nids shows up.
@@oniemployee3437 I read that the hive mind takes control over them so they come out of their hiding places to jump into the pools.
@@oniemployee3437 there's lore that contradicts this. it varies by cult/hive. sometimes its getting the veil lifted and being horrified, sometimes they walk in willingly, with or without the veil, and sometimes the hive fleet lets them live and sends them out as vanguards
Tzeentch, at least, feels conflicted about the Tyranids. Because, on one hand, here is a race of creatures who CONSTANTLY change and improve for WHATEVER they go after.
On the other hand, these same creatures are making it REALLY hard to convert others to him, specifically, since they keep getting merc’ed and bodied left right and center.
Korn does not care where the blood flows as long as it flows
The Tyranids present the idea of embracing change to survive, Tzeentch changes things JUST because. He represents endless possibility, but if the Tyranids devour the galaxy then their is no possibilities left to ponder.
I would actually think Tzeentch would find that offensive and want them burned to ashes. Plus their shadow in the warp is dangerous to psykers, something tzeentch loves.
@@Scrublord96I would say more, does not like for the purpose of “These bugs are taking my shit I would much rather prefer to fuel the machine of war myself”
@@niceguyofgames9490they also completely end all conflict on planets they eat permanently so its a total net loss for khorn
Tbh, their shtick gets old after their third meal.
They always do the same thing, deviate a little depending on the enemy, but ultimately they always do this so they can eat.
They are the most boring race for Tzeentch.
The only good bug, is a dead bug.
I'm doing my part.
Do you wnat to know more?
Cmon you apes, DONT YA WANNA LIVE FOREVER?!?
Would you like to know more?
(Yes). (no).
RICO'S ROUGH NECKS!!!
If they got ahold of Angron's DNA it wouldn't make them the angriest. It would make them empaths. As Angron was designed to be the emotional anchor for the other primearchs.
He lost his primearch abilities when he got the nails implanted in his skull.
He was able to put his fellow gladiators at ease, and give them peace between battles.
So now they can psychicly make you OK with them eating you
@@Shadow952013 I can kinda see them finally getting a hold of Angron and the mutation causes the fleet to gain individual sentience. Even if they still remain a hive mind there's a fixed number of minds that just keep getting given new bodies. Hell, they could even become a monstrous version of the T'au.
Were his sons also empaths before the nails?
@aristogan Unfortunately, records on the 12th before Angron took command are sparse. Books have them placed in the pacification of a few Hive Cities at the Emperor's command, but mostly held in reserve to train and build their numbers.
There is speculation as to why this was, but Big E himself named the 12th as his Warhounds, which of course would be their legion name till the arrival of Angron.
Angron truly is the saddest story behind all the primarchs
I’ll be honest, when I ran my Nids I had made them a Tendril of hive fleet Kraken. The Tendril I ran was based out of a water world, who heavily used their Genestealers, and even had heavy influence with Cultists, and I loved making the story for them. Even had custom color set for them that would make them look like sharks, and even had barnacles, sea weed, etc growing on them.
do u have any social media where you've posted them?? would love to see!
@@schmlondaysxd9504 unfortunately the guy I commissioned to paint them stole one of my carifexs and never got back to painting the rest of my army.
God damn. That sounds amazing
the new Tyranid lore that came along with 10th Edition and the Leviathan book is insane. Whole segmentum gets sandwiched between 2 new tendrils of Hive Fleet Leviathan, one from above and one from below the galactic plane. A couple of Imperial ships manage to escape by the skin of their teeth and get far back to one of the main worlds where Lord Solar Leontus happens to be, they get word to him just as the Shadow In The Warp begins to fall onto the planet and Lord Solar rushes to Terra to muster a defense force (which costs his Navigator and Astropaths their lives). They create the "Solblades", rapid strike forces consisting of Space Marines, Custodes, Sorroitas and whatever other forces they can get, and they start hit and run attacks on the 2 tendrils while evacuating less defensible planets and fortifying the stronghold worlds. This works well for a while until a THIRD tendril comes rocking up and gets to the main core planet in the sector they're defending. This place is a fortress beyond measure, there's an asteroid ring full of ships and battlestations and even the Imperial Fists' space station fortress, the bugs force their way through, there's even a VERY graphic description of the crew of one of these stations being digested alive when a massive hive ship just swallows the entire station. On the ground they hit SO hard, but Leontus and the Captain general of the Custodes are holding out, until a trio of Norn Emissaries show up, one wrecks a major command station but the last living guy insdie blows the place up and kills it, another tears a hole in a defensive line after going up against 20 Dreadnoughts by itself before fleeing (after killing most of said Dreadnoughts). The third one sneaks up to the mountain top above the fortress, waits for Leontus and his half-mile long retinue of guards and attendants to come into the courtyard as he makes his rounds directing and inspiring his troops, and leaps down onto them and is only blasted aside by a Custodian gunship mere feet from crashing down onto Leontus. It STILL manages to smash Leontus' retinue to a pulp, tear said gunship out of the sky and kill most of the Custodians that it dropped off before Captain General Trajann Valorus deals a killing blow to it, the 2 leaders BARELY survived this. At this point the tide seems to be turning, the Imperials are driving back the Tyranids. Then the story cuts to a Solblade led by a Raven Guard Shadow Captain, who is caleld to the bridge of his ship and the navigator points him to the viewscreen, coming into view between them and the core fortress planet, is what at first seems to be a moon, but the Captain is confused for a moment as his carts show no moons in that area, and then he sees it begin to move, and writhe. It's not a moon, it's the biggest Tyranid organism ever seen and it's heading for the planet.
Noooooooo!!!😢
Ah yes The father orbs. Each ship is controlled by a norn queen A mother to her swarm. But each one of them is commanded by a father, orb, a living flesh planet of tyrannic matter A giant floating beacon and also production factory. the imperium always wondered where we came from. But we didn't come from anywhere. we brought our home worlds with us. And now your galaxy shall be our new home. Until all life is eaten and we decide to move on.
@@lornbaker1083 Oh the only you goofy xenojerks are eating are these IMPERIAL CLASS DIVINE L'S!!!! NO GALAXIES FOR YOU!
Fucking hell
What book is this?
Also The Tyranids are no longer coming from one direction. In The Fourth Tyrannic War, Leviathan is coming into Segmentum Pacificus in The Galactic West. We are surrounded.
You might not realise but space has more than two dimensions homie
@@bookkeeper1995 of course, But if we are speaking in terms of the Imperial Map of The Galaxy then it would be from the west. The Imperium designates each part of The Galactic Plane and also which directions their Segmentums lie. Segmentum Pacificus lies west of Terra, Therefore they emerge from The Galactic West. They even call it "The Galactic West" in the Lore.
@@calus7958 I wasn't debating the finer points of cartography, I meant the remark about being surrounded 😅
@@bookkeeper1995 Well my point still stands since Leviathan is coming from beneath the Galactic Plane aswell you stickler >:3
@@calus7958 The galaxy is a circle bro
you know what gets me about the tyranids? we often see them from an astartes superpower galaxy-wide perspective and so we see them at a macro scale. we kinda forget EXACTLY how horrifying they are cuz the dudes fighting them are SOMEWHAT more equipped to deal with them. they're still scary, but their terror lies in their sheer volume and adaptability.
in one book, i think it's one of the ravenor ones iirc - baseline humans (albeit of the inquisitorial type) encounter ONE tyranid. ONE*. and you see them from a normal-ish human perspective, and its like having to fight a fucking xenomorph. it's bigger than them, it's got all the tyranid gnarliness, its faster than them, its absolute nightmare fuel.
and you kinda remember that oh shit, yeah, these bugs are something else entirely. and thats what's so, SO good about them
*feel free to fact check me on this, its been a while since i've read any 40k books
Just gonna put this as a fan theory in-universe reason for why tyrannids get bodied on occasion, but then the ultimate creature biology proves itself elsewhere in 40k. Its just cause they ate almost every Lamenter, and their horrible curse got transferred out to the tyrannids that were in the galaxy at that time.
Something like that 😂 in all seriousness though, as far as the lore goes the Nids are ridiculously strong. Idk how any other race has a chance, short of happenstance and plot armor.
@@gman7497I hate the tyranids as a concept because while the orcs are at least comedically interesting and are at least a society the tyranids are literally nothing but consumers. The reason I hate this as a concept is because it doesn’t leave anything for exploration it’s just what it is.
@icecoldpolitics8890 there's nothing to them, they're just a swarm of things to fight. Admittedly their psychic abilities and different bioforms are kinda interesting but there's no real depth outside of that. It's not like there's a tyranid 'hero' with an interesting backstory.
@@gman7497Necrons are probably the only thing that stands a chance because they are basically robots that provide no food for them.
Ork tyranids just manifesting things into reality, making red rippers which are faster, the core of the fleet is a colossal tyranid form because the biggest bug is the boss
Tryazn has a tyranid hive fleet in his collection. I think it escaped during thec13th black crusade
The best character by far, like 'The Collector' from Marvel but way better!
Haha of course he does
It was Bile that crusaded for centuries to collect the materials to make a perfect non chaos Fulgrim clone. Then he got upset with it and traded it to Tryzan.
They escaped inside his museum and royally pissed him off. Broke a lot of stuff. He decided pictures of them is safer.
He collected them like pokemon Till some escaped and wrecked up his museum. He still wants to collect them, and he won't be happy until he has a sample image and dna code of every single possible tyranid mutation that has ever existed. Which to a mortal might seem impossible. But remember it's trayzn. Time is the one thing he has plenty of. Also, don't forget he has usikar creed in his museum. Not in stasis but actually alive and wandering around. Because he likes the company of cadias' most famous madlad.
I love this channel and I binged every damn episode and I will continue to. Also the bugs are probably the most terrifying faction and truly pity those guardsmen
I REALLY wish you went into the named characters for the nids. Deathleaper, Swarmlord, The one Terror who singlehandedly ate the souls of a forgeworld. There's such great stories
The Doom of Malan’tai, yes
It amuses me that Tyranids employ DDoS attacks
Hahaha, oh right. Blocking the warp comms.
Dude... Nids coming back via spores from Orc dna is 100% possible. And absolutely awful.
That is absolutely horrifying. Octarius Nids making it so that warriors and gaunts just spore respawn on battlefields instead of being dragged back to spawning pools and reborn then re deployed saving biomass and time.
Holy hell how bout noooooo spore nids sounds like a mega problem
I watched a lot of movies and shows about getting invaded and honestly getting invaded by Tyranids is just downright terrifying
The overloaded beacon signaled the nids to approach, but astronomicon keeps them coming.
I think that the tyranids hunt by waiting for a galaxy to get so full of life it becomes a natural astronomicon, the sheer ammount of souls blazing out a beacon.
The explosion drew them in early, but undercooked food is still food.
Edit: i said souls but i meant warp based mental activity, the chatter or living biengs reflecting and echoing through the warp drawing in the predators
Assuming that the life have souls - tau, animals, etc might not have souls
@@111muz111 tau do, just dimmed to prevent chaos corruption like the Votann.
Animals also have souls, its just the human/eldar souls are very reactive with the warp, making them appear much brighter.
@cthulhluftagn3812 what happens to animal souls? What about loyal imperial subjects? Do they default to slanesh?
@@111muz111 animal souls most likley dissapate into warpstuff, imperial souls are.. well we dont really know what happanes to a soul not touched by chaos.
To my memory we have never seen evidence of a afterlife, as we would understand one at least.
The only souls that default to slaanesh are eldar btw, they where jusy that horny..
Which beacon?
This is an amazing description of the nids, havent seen any explanation even touch the terror, confusion, and bewilderment this does. The way you explained their method of fast speed travel combined with the shadow in the warp messing with the planet followed by the hopeless nature of the invasion, the subtle hints at genestealer cults and the sabotage. All in all it was incredible. You need to write and dictate 40k stories, properly terrifying.
Awww yeah, the Tyranids are one of my two favorite factions. The Tau are my other favorite, so I’m excited for y’all to talk about them soon!
Found you guys 2 days ago and binged all of it, even made it onto Patreon. Keep doing what you do, love it.
Something tells me the Old Ones fled the galaxy and made they Tyranids as a means to clean the galaxy and start over. Kinda like if the Flood WAS the ring in Halo.
I heard that theory I like it
My favorite theory on this is that they are either the last of the old ones or the product of the last one that fled the galaxy and are returning to start everything again from nothing
They didn’t care about the galaxy till the pharos beacon told them there was food
@@mr.revrac5602 that’s another theory that has the most plausibility
@@warboss3686 its not a theory. Its literally stated in the book pharos
@@mr.revrac5602 yeah and the Eldar stated that they were created by the silent king and one of the codexes states the possibility of the Tyranids are running away from some greater…welcome to Warhammer Lore where consistency means literally nothing
@@warboss3686 where do the eldar say that they were created by the silent king. Nothing treats them running as an actual possibility. There’s absolutely consistency some ideas are repeated over and over again and others aren’t. Just because one outlier contradicts mountains of evidence does not disprove it. If you don’t understand that I cant help you.
I'll not lose faith that Papa Nurgle will find a method to set them back for longer. Perhaps with an illness that initially seems to be beneficial because of some healing or regeneration component made in conjunction with his fair little lady.
So like….cancer on steroids for the ‘Nids
Wait, so is the Tyranids only weakness that if you attack them hard enough in the scouting phase; they'll decide it's not worth it and move on to another world? Because being slow to maneuver doesn't seem like that bad a deal when you can just adapt to whatever you're fighting against.
Well. Sometimes they will keep trying. But if you fight the war of attrition for long enough. There is a chance that they will just leave. If they see that the cost to Benefit ratio isn’t right for them.
Eg, battle with necrons vs tynarids.
The current 4th tyranic war has already began. And the high lord of terra, lord Liantus managed to repel 3 hive fleet tendrils. Barely. He made the tyranids so angry, they sent a norm emissary to kill him. The norn emissary killed 6 custodians on its own.
Also, we are also in trouble. Cause now. The tyranids have their form of a brother moon from dead space.
The thing is, we don't know the size of the true Hive fleet and the time scales at which the Tyranids plan because they are so alien.
What seems like Victory against the Tyranids might just be a first phase of invasion defeated, now they know what they're dealing with so they send in the big bugs, arriving 1000 years later having that time to adept new bioforms. Or 10000 years, or 100000 years. We have no way of knowing when or if we were safe when the enemy comes from far outside the galaxy and we can't leave that Galaxy
@@damianbouras They are running from the only thing that could scare them: an empty universe they've already scoured.
There is one way to seriously harm a Hive Fleet.
Wait until the Hive fleet has started the full invasion of a planet, then Nuke / Virus Bomb / Any other Exterminatus available the planet.
This massively weakens the Hive Fleet because it expends a lot of energy without being able to recoup the loss.
@@halfknight2310 I'm sorry they have a *what*
I wanna imagine that after the Doom of Malan'tai became a proven concept of high end psyker combat and soul eating, they're just waiting for an opportunity to offload a shit ton of it towards anyone important, like the Emperor or the Primarchs
Doom of Malan'tai also needs to feed on psykers, so maybe they're sending psyckers to repliscas of it
"Death rattle of the damned". An amazing and unique phrase.
I always thought that Tyranids lose in all the stories they appear on, because those are the only stories that can be passed around: the ones from survivors. When Tyranids win, there are no witnesses. No stories to be told...
You are one hundred percent correct. The only stories of tyrannids come from their defeat. When they win no one is surviving to tell the tale.
That's Crazzy to think about
With the Bug’s win over Orks it’s suddenly Gork, Mork & Tork fighting for all eternity
Going off that feeling of being stalked, I've only felt it once and it definitely isn't anything I'd wish on anyone. I was on Night Watch for a cruise ship, and felt something from the dock, but no one was there. Thinking back to it, maybe it was a primitive 'nid scout.
I for one love the fan-made hivefleet of Nidhoggr, basically the harbinger of ragnarok of inorganic magma tyranids
Not my fav race but 100% fav episode. Brilliant introduction, especially for a noob like me.
So good!🎉
These videos are the best part of my work week. I put them on and work flies by. You guys rock.
*All* factions might have to join up to push back the invasion 😅 but I love everything I've learned about them. I want them to adapt! More bioforms!🎉
It seems like the best way to combat them would be to deliberately cause warpstorms in front of their fleets, let the worlds get over run with daemons, and starve them out as they run out of biomass. I guess this is similar to what a certain Inquisitor tried, but rather then dead worlds, it expends their energy as they try and fight. That or try and divert them towards Necron worlds somehow...
The tyranids have only been in the galaxy for 200 years.
This means that, thanks to the size and complexity of the imperial beaucracy, the majority of the emperium dosent know that tyranids exist.
I would love to see the imperium defend against this in a movie, like some Action and Suspense type. Make you fall in love with both sides of the conflict😊
I could see a movie doing that. Except it would need to have scenes with the tyran. But you wouldn't be able to understand what they're saying. It would just be hisses clicks gravely roars and body motions. You'd have to interpret from their body language what they are trying to say. But given the setting of the movie, it would be obvious that they were just talking about IG Troop movement, gaunt supply production, and of couse, the location of more biomass. But it would be done in such a weird esoteric way. Only the most dedicated fans of Tyranid army would be able To interpret. Like the scene in the first jurassic park movie when the raptors were communicating with each other. If that's the way I see these bugs behaving when they don't have access to the psychic link network. They are reduced to a permit of state. But as soon as they have that link, they become as intelligent as the average imperial guard soldier. Which isn't much but better than just being an idiot bug
Now I want a video that is just a deep dive into what Trazyn has in his collection
MICHIGAAAAAAAN (Midwest). I love this show
Made in Detroit
so the reasons tyranids actually came to this galaxy is because during the heresy the heretics fought with the ultramarines causing something known as the lighthouse which was a way to teleport to locations through thought but the heretics or ultras blew it up basically making a huge "lighthouse" for the tyranids letting them know about humanity and this galaxy and during the time between 30k to 40k they were just slowly coming here with this being just the beginning wave of tyranids which is wild.
and if i remember the heretics were the night haunters konrad curzes crazy bois this took place when guilliman sanguinius and the lion were making a new empire to be safe since they didnt know if the emperor still lived at this time
NEITHER the Ultramarines nor the Traitors destroyed the Pharos Device, the Loyalist Iron Warrior Barrabas Dantioch did.
@@MrJordwalk ohh that's right my bad thanks for the correction I forgot about him T^T
The destruction of the Pharos is the leading hypothesis as to what attracted the Tyranids. The problem with that is twofold:
1. It can't actually be confirmed since the Nids aren't talking.
2. Tyranids and bioforms that could have well have been Tyranids have been found in the galaxy that appear to have been present since long before the destruction of the Pharos.
@@violeth2255 i mean at the end of the book it brings up how the pharos being blown up woke something up that had millions of unblinking eyes watching and a limitless hunger then stating that it had found the one thing it sought which was prey and even in its sleep it was instinctively able to analyze the signal. i'd say that points pretty clearly at tyranids
So the Geth thing that Koda brought up is actually how they work in Gladius. If they aren't around a 'Overlord' style unit they slowly loose moral, and when they hit zero moral they become a natural mob. Which you can then bring a 'Overlord' unit close to them an bring them back into the hive. As when not around the hive itself, or a strong enough connection to it the smaller units actually do loose connection and then fall back on instinct.
I’m a big believer that nids are like reapers from mass effect, they’re the universes answer to the immaterium, like a biological defence vs psychic races to stop chaos from consuming systems.
They basically consume/are drawn to anything that creates a presence in the warp limiting chaos
I actually love to think that the one thing that Trazyn doesnt have in collection is Tyranids, cause they are a safety hazard, imagine if his ways of containing it will be ineffective cause the thing just adapts to everything, and its just takes a bite out of his precious Primarch clone, that will be unacceptable, or worse its leads entire fleet to him, which is also a creative way to actually progress the story of tyranids, but exactly because that might happen He doesnt risks to update his collection with tyranids, and I love to think that this drives him absolutely mad.
Trazyn desperately wants one of each type of Tyranid, but he also realizes that there's no such thing as a "complete collection' which just drives him up a wall. It's his worst nightmare; An infinite collection that he can never complete or contain.
It must be destroyed.
Glad to arrive so early with this! I love the Nids, and the justice you give to everything is amazing. Keep up the wonderful work!
You guys keep making banger after banger thank you guys. And it definitely helps my work day go faster
In angron gene seed, he's a healer it would be crazier than you think if they get his powers. The nails were a xeno taint on the emperor's son/tool (lost his powers to the nails after the botched implantation)
I’m hankering for these long vid deep dives on each faction. The lore and analogies used are only complimentary to your dynamic duo’s charismatic ability. Hell yeah guys I’m loving it!
9:36 I know that feeling from grabbing a smoke at my in-laws place in Idaho, not sure if it was bears, coyotes or a mountain lion, but that feeling is freaky
Koda’s singing and editing note made me so happy for some reason, never change friend
Youve got such great delivery! I would LOVE a breakdown of the individual bioforms and what they do
I literally look forward to you guys every week. Also just watched Dune remake for first time bc of yall. Worth it.
Like it was a waste of money they lost in 6 weeks
Man i just love this podcast, whatever im doing and whatever time it is, the moment I see a new episode is out i just have to listen to it
p.s. from Germany
This was a fantastic way to show the horror of this part of WH. Thank you for being so cool and making this for new audiences! This will be my go to for those who know a little and want to learn more about the Nids.
I love how he emphasises that named characters beat the breaks off of tyranids and space marines 2 is coming out where you play AS the names character and go fourth to beat the breaks off them 😂😂
Been waiting for a tyranid video since I've been watching you guys. Love your work! 🇦🇺
Holy crap u guys are so close to 10k, keep it up, I love it!!!!
This probably the best tyranid video Iv seen. Literally to see how passionate you are about them has made my day! I thought I was alone! Yes they need to sort it a GW so we can get books and media of our bugs just merking everyone. Can’t wait for a genestealer cult video
Just wanna say happy I found ur guys shorts islanders has a great way of explaining the unexplainable in 40k make it really simple lol thanks guys I love 40k and love ur passion for it
Love your channel! Awesome as always!
seen your content in clips on tiktok for a while now and figured id finally watch something and why not start with my favorite buggy boys!
Tyranids: **Break into Trazyn's museum and eat **_everything_****

Giving the nids some love, who doesn’t like those silly little bug creatures?
They ate my planet
Love the content, keep up the good work! 👍
Dudes, I just saw you got 88k views. Congrats, I remember seeing lower views on the early stuff. Glad yall are growing.
Sodak viewer binged every episode on ur channel follow u and tiktok and UA-cam love ur content. Keep up the good work
You guys have a fun channel. Good job.
Great video! You both are awesome!
That said, Koda, c'mon.. Maginot? That hard G 😂😂😂
Koda is very rad. Isyander is also rad. Y’all are very cool
9:24 that feeling can be described as when a deer smells something upwind it puts you on alert that you are being hunted by something
Respect the Shoutout to the main man Trazyn, gotta love em!
I love the idea that alphabuse Originally had for the tyranid in his show. They literally were a spam bot system. Speaking as one voice and 1 mind with a very simple concept of essentially, the meme. Can I has you as a cheeseburger. Asking if anyone else was hungry because they were very hungry. The communication of entities in the warp was depicted as like a discord chat. And they actually made khorne scared.
Imagine if the tyranids got one of the missing primarchs with an early explatory fleet and the swarmlord is the result of it
Oh my god, bugs, bugs, bugs!
Fun fact about Oregon; where I live. Oregon was the only mainland state to be bombed during WW2. Look it up, it's amazing.
Awesome Video
I love this channel! I hope we see a Leagues of Votann video one day
When i voted Grey knights were up by a few but tyranids are awesome too! Love the channel guys
If they want Primarch dna they should go for the body of Sanguinius, or the hand of Dorn? It seems like those would be easier to get to then a Primarch that is alive and moving around.
But they can’t track it because they have no psychic spoor as they aren’t alive
A Tyranid primarch genetic combo would be intense... How about a Nid and SCP-682 combo? Warp your mind around that...
682 survived having the universal constants of itself and its environment being altered to the most extreme degrees and appeared to be enjoying it according to the experimenters. The kids might be able to tear it to pieces until it adapts, but it's not 682's DNA that gives it it's anomalous properties.
The swarmlord is essentially 682 Every time that it's killed when it gets reborn. It has all the memories It accumulated over its last time alive. So it not only remembers what killed it it also marks it for death. And also the swarm Lord has been around for a very long time. It has the accumulated knowledge of countless battles, not even taking place within the milky way galaxy, but possibly a different galaxy that the tyrant is came from. Its intelligence is to the point where not even the most intelligent life form in our galaxy can possibly communicate with it. It shows an understanding of emotion and how to use it against other creatures. And the supreme understanding of mass battlefield tactics. Even the emissaries bow and acquiesce to its commands.
If there is a representation of what the swarm is. It has to be the Swarm lord itself. A living icon of infinite combat knowledge Able to appear at any time wherever it is needed and take full control Without a single piece of effort. Commanding countless millions of insect soldiers, weaponry and living battle machines just with a simple essence of a thought. Well at the same time bodying space marines left and right like it's a Competition sport. If trying to see if they can chuck the next one farther than they chucked the last. Because it has been shown to actually revel in the aspect of malicious behavior In times of victory. Actually, showing an aspect that could be considered similar to a emotion that we humans would understand. Enjoying the defeat of your enemy. No other tyranid hive tyrant has ever shown this behavior.
So it does not Bode well for humanity. That the tyranid have decided to make something that is equal to the human commanders in terms of not only its intelligence but also it's behavior and understanding of human emotion.
35:33 pall, if you try hard enough, nothing is bolter proof.
I believe the deathwatch have a special bolter round that the tyranids haven’t even adapted to yet.
Hunter killer rounds. They are highly effective against tyrannids. But you need to constantly swap out the different kinds of chemicals used, otherwise they will develop a defense. The fact that death watch has access to so many different kinds of these rounds is what allows them to be so effective. If they just kept using standard type a eventually, the tyrants would develop a way to defend against. So they also have type b type c all the way to type g.
I do love the mention the eldar hate the tyranids and then just recently in true drekari fashion, the dark eldar go "oooo free test subjects gimme" and stole a whole planet so that the homunculi can have fun experimenting.
there was a story I read somewhere about a tiny scout fleet that came too close to an Inquisitorial Black ship. the husks of the dead tyranids were found floating in space.
They should do some kind of Plot B storyline with the Tyranids to get around the whole Bugs v. Named Character plot black hole thing, like that time a comic was made where an alternate universe version of The Punisher killed every super hero. Like, every single one. Good fun what-if.
It was unintentional, but Isyander is a pretty good narrator.
I actually have an idea on how the tyranids could eat a primarch and yet not get a massive boost: they acheive this buuuuuut the unit they try to make with the genetic material from the primarch retains the massive downside of a primarch's ego. Making it uncontrollable/ contest the hive mind and thus unusable.
In fact, imagine if the newly made tyrarch now is a constant struggle between a tyranid unit and an independant being, possibly bearing the original personality of what was eaten.
Haha casually dropping 'Being a lecherous tooool' is too good.
For a Tyranid spy its fun to just imagine a giant roach in a loose human skin, men in black style
I feel like the Grimdark answer is they eat everything. But the interesting story would be everyone having to get together vs the Tyranids. Big E and the Silent King together could build the ultimate crusade revive the necrontyr in demigod bodies. Necrodermis terminators... bolter railguns... everybody versus tyranids... 50k?
I mean, there is literally a planet called Murder so honestly Mega Dead is still on brand.
That sensation of being watched, I know what you're talking about, everytime I feel it I know exactly what it is due to the like stabbing feeling of it, not necessarily pain but a lot of discomfort. It's "extremely fun."
Notably this sensation might be a different kind of feel for others but like yk
We've been trying to reach you about you Orks extended video
the stalking feeling is real, it's an instinct from our caveman days. it will literally keep you alive.
At this point. Give them Abbadon. Would be a way to remove him semi gracefully.
Guards vs tyranids would make a great star ship troopers movie
Best answer to the lore of them having to be stopped from winning because they spiral hard is adding a memory node that they store their gains in and thus become targets of surgical strikes to remove when they get stuff they cant be allowed to keep
The way you explain 40 K has me encapsulated I was never interested because I thought it was like Star Trek I couldn’t have been more wrong love the Contant
bruh looks more and more straight every video love it
Dam, I thought the tyranids farted through space?
Dude I'm from New Zealand and even I couldn't hope to pronounce that hahaha your good my man keep up the good work guys
I'm a tyranid player so this was fun to watch, watching it while painting some hive fleet kraken guys
