Description
And the final army of the 40k posters, the Tyranids! Though my first game of 40k was as Space Marines against 'Nids I still love the image of them. Hulking monsters twice the size of a normal man that destroy eveything in their path...Nuff said in previous posters.

I can see why my brother favors the Tyranids. I know there are a lot of cool armies in Warhammer, but you have to admit that the Tyranids have a high chance of consuming most, if not all, of the Galaxy.

This just in.
The technological knowledge needed creating bug sprays has been lost during the Dark Age of Technology
Have fun.

Don't bother with that. They'll just eat that one next. The best solution would be to go into the Webway, and give the Dark Eldar an eviction notice.

That way we can find the White Scars' Primarch. And I just thought of something. I read on tvtropes on an article on 40k's nightmare fuel. It said there were hints in the fluff that this is 'Nids second run in the Milky Way.

Yeah. I'm sure Khan would like to be back with his boys.
Anyway, back to the space locus. If the Nids did OMNONMed the galaxy already before, then how did new life get here? The Old Ones. The creators of the Eldar and Orks.

Pretty much.
If Nids take in Ork DNA, shouldn't they be more Orky? As in understanding the need for more dakka?

But it's probably for the best they don't. Here's an equation that best represents that scenario.
Carnflex + the knowledge of needing more dakka= Dakkaflex. A Carnflex with more Tryanid dakka.

Yep. It could get worse though. How worse? Pray to the Emperor that the day never comes. The day when the Hive Mind creates a flying Carnflex.

(It would probably have little bumblebee wings)
Or if the hive mind decided to spawn chaos tyranids.
Space marines'd be screwed then.

That's so adorable and terrifying.
Yep. Wouldn't they be under the control of Chaos? And what's worse than a flying Carnflex? A flying genestealer.

And thus the space marines would be devoured. (Or at the least, slightly miffed.)

Most likely. Though that problem, and possible flying Carnflexs, and flying genestealers can be adverted if you send them to the Tau, or the eye of terror. Or the Twilight world.

Private-Funny-Man In reply to Amazing-person-yes [2014-05-12 21:23:19 +0000 UTC]
Yes indeed it would. And we wouldn't even need Creed to sneak a titan on them. Speaking of which, the results from Twilight being absorbed into the Hive Mind would be the Hive Mind collapsing on itself.
As for dealing with the Tau, there's four ways to deal with them.
1: Get the Emperor of the Golden Throne.
2: Create a lure that would attract the Nids and throw it on Tau worlds.
3: Tell them there are some lovely folks in the Eye of Terror would just love to hear about the Greater Good.
The fourth one is the trickiest.Β

Private-Funny-Man In reply to Amazing-person-yes [2014-05-13 14:46:53 +0000 UTC]
The fourth one has two ways to go.
Te first way is to fuse an emperor class Titan with all the big dakka the Imperium has, then add the Emperor and the golden throne, and then Liberty Prime from Fallout 3

Private-Funny-Man In reply to Amazing-person-yes [2014-05-13 16:23:46 +0000 UTC]
Yep.
And the other way is a sure fire way to get every space marine to introduce a power fist in your face. And make them cringe and bring their worst nightmare to life.
Here's what you do on this way.
You need to get the Blood Ravens a lot of new recruits. They need them, but not to bring the chapter to full strength. Not as a Codex compliant chapter, no. I'm talking about Legion building. Turn the Blood Ravens into legion with thousands of men. Hundred or two hundred thousand would do.
But why the Blood Ravens? They can steal pretty much anything. They stole from the Grey Knights, and the Custodes. The CUSTODES. The bodyguards of the Emperor.

Private-Funny-Man In reply to Amazing-person-yes [2014-05-13 17:30:34 +0000 UTC]
Yep.
The Blood Ravens would steal all of the fancy technology the Tau have.
Or there is always the angry marines. They hate the Tau. Just say the Tau did something heretical, are consorting with Chaos, and have pretty marines in their ranks. That would get the Angry Marines riled up.

Indeed. The World Eaters, expect Kharn(neat guy by the way), have nothing on them. The best way to draw out the Angry Marines' rage on the Tau to settle the Tau problem? Tell them the Tau said their chapter is a successor chapter of the Ultramarines.

Private-Funny-Man In reply to Amazing-person-yes [2014-05-14 16:09:27 +0000 UTC]
They might kick you in the groin with their powerfeet when you tell them, but afterwards, the Tau would not know what will hit them. Each and every single angry marine, cursing and howling with rage as the slam their battle barrages into Tau worlds. The Tau would learn true despair and fear, and the definition of rage. As their worlds burn, and as the last Fire Caste commander draws his last breathe, dying in shame for not protecting the last Ethereal, the skies will be filled. Filled victorious howls of anger, and chant that would drive any normal man insane.
That chant?
"ALWAYS ANGRY, ALL THE TIME!"

Yep. No more Tau, but the Angry Marines would probably take heavy causalities. Eh, they'd just order a bunch of pizzas to the Pretty Marines, and then decided to go, "Screw you, Rowboat Girlyman!" and then do some legion building.
