The Tyranids | Warhammer 40,000

- čas přidán 16. 12. 2018
- The Tyranids have come from outside the galaxy to devour every world within. They are perhaps the ultimate enemy. A hive mind that can not be bargained or reasoned with and exists only to further perfect its living ecosystem of death.
The Templin Institute investigates the nations, factions, and organizations of alternate worlds.

having a single Astartes in Star Wars would be hilarious. I'd pity the force-users that have to go up against one .
@@monsterhunterrivi6303 may the emperor's light be with you XD
@@joachimdebusschere6778 hehe thank you thank you. i wonder what the average storm trooper or republic soldier would make of bolter-fire coming their way.......or a chainsword
@@wiseguy01 depends on how good he is with his Force hold/throw if an Astartes gets up close...It's game over xD
@@wiseguy01 Okay, I am fairly new to this fandom, but let's see what I recall of Astartes... Firstly, force crush... don't Astartes have several sets of organs of which a normal force user would not even be aware of? Or is it just specific chapters (i.e. Grey Knights?)
Secondly, aren't space marines by default enhanced to superhuman levels due to the genetic manipulation? I.e. an average space marine would be on par with an EXPERIENCED force user who is capable of boosting his reflexes and physique through the force?
Also, while I buy that light sabers would deflect lazguns, bolters are ballistic... I imagine intense bolter fire would likely be worse to deal for a force user than blaster fire from droids or stormtroopers, as you can't reflect the projectiles. Even if we, for the sake of argument assume that the lightsaber instantly evaporates the bolter projectile (which I doubt, as it is shown that lightsabers need time to cut through heavier alloys of metals), it would still remove a lot of offensive capablility from the force user when he or she can no longer reflect the blasts back at the attacker.
In a close up melee though, lightsaber va chainsword... sorry, lorewise, no chance, chainsword gets owned.
Only the orcs are having fun in this universe

Not only are they the only ones having fun. They are winning. Because their win state is having a good fight. In the 41st millennium there are plenty of things to fight.
That Inquisition counter-hack interrupt was absolutely perfect.
True, but can't help but feel the sudden cut of the usual mantra of The Emperor Protects was a way here is your emperor protects with massive middle finger courtesy of the Templin's tech team saying yeah no not going to put up with that, moving on. I was actually laughing at that more as the perfect cherry on top.
Indeed.
Absolutely
Only the Inquisition would think they get to have a multi-universal edict.
Now, I have this Institute's location and Exterminatus will be on its way.

Tyranids are probably the only faction that can make Chaos look cute, relatively harmless and fluffy
necron and dark eldars are close seconds or tie with the tyranids (to me at least)
Tyranids a praticly immuned to the chaos corruption, but not entirely.
I remember a story during the Eyes of the Terror world campaign, wwhere a hive ship falls into a warp rift, when it wwas released every bioform inside where corrupted by khorne.
Chaos can still corrupt tyranids but its foolishly hard to do. Tyranids are bound by a hive mind, and have no inherent emotions or desires. Separating them from the hive is hard and somewhat controlling them is even harder
@@mobiuscoreindustries A corrupted hive queen would do the trick.
Unless they stumble to AdMech forgeworlds. Then tyranids go home hungry.
Recent fluff said one forgeworld single-handedly stopped a hive fleet and now is actively hunting it.
*Tyranids are creatures from our darkest nightmares. But remember this: they can bleed, and they can die.*

That moment that the communication was interrupted by Imperial Authorities was surprising and awesome. Gives the illusion that the Templin Institute has access to information across the entire multiverse and the Imperium just noticed the intrusion
@Lord Inquisitor Steiner von Willhelm fucking hell
To me, it speaks volume about the actual power controlled by the Imperium.
To think they could hack in and even momentarily stopped a transmission broadcast by a species that mastered interdimensional travel, and infiltrated enough universes to create a vast library on various empires and factions across the multiverse...
@@nathanjora7627 that's what I love about Templin. Their videos are from the perspective of scholars observing new nation.
@@darthfenrir4892 There is no arguing with that, they are definitely a multidimensional Starfleet.
@Lord Inquisitor Steiner von Willhelm Okay, so by looking at it :
star wars will be overrun by imperial fleeing from the Tyranids, after which they will gain so much power that they'll be able to regain full control of the Milky Way. From that, they'll conquer all other universes you mentioned.
...
Well, seems good to me, the Templin Institute should continue doing that.
"The blasphemy of the Tyranids is such that only one solution is acceptable. Extermination."

Gotta be carefull wich kind of exterminatus though! Virus Bombs always seem to backfire against Tyranids.
@@galling2052 That's kinda stupid because virus bombs basically eat anything organic up.. tyranids are so wanked and then they turn up weak stupid and lose..
@@almightybogza Each time the imperium or any other force used any form of biological warfare, it worked only on the first attemts, even nurgles methaphysicly ehanced desises. In Gothic Armada it was stated that virus bombs are not to be used against tyranids because of ever more limited effect and the horrifing truth that tyrands on occasion have repilcated it. The tyranids resillience to such warfare might even surpass isha herself, even the obliturator virus made by the iron legion, effectied a single hiveship only under very optimal and certainly unique conditions.

@@comradecommissar8223 me: *shoots the Commissar with a bolter*
Tyranids are the one faction that genuinely terrifies me. They are true embodiment of evolution and the methodical way they eradicate all life from the planet makes it the stuff of nightmares. It all goes to that primal instinct of survival and the thought of being mere food for creatures like that makes me shiver like crazy.
Exactly, a lifeform as lowly as a parasite grown to insane proportions is absolute heresy. Like the Xenomorph from Alien, it only takes away Life to create more of itself. Truly a parasite.
I disagree, I view them as a simple predator which does what predators are ment to do. The problem for them is that, unlike chaos (which is also a kind of predator), the nids are destroying their only source of food. If they don't change their way they will -exceptes with some very specific cases- die because they ate everything
The tyranids do keep the genetic of those they consume, like an archive. Perhaps the old ones made them as a way to keep the necrons in specific areas, like one would a forest fire. The tyranids would both deprive the necrons of their food source while also preserving said life in the form of stored genetic info.
You want to know the scary part? They are basically what humans are to other races, especially since warhammer 40k's humanity is ultra imperialistic. Just look at how often people ignore global warming because it would cut into their profits.

Oh my God. That was horrifying. I knew that the Tyranids had consumed more than one galaxy, but the idea that they might have gotten EVERY galaxy, the idea that the Milky Way might be the only one left...
*stop giving me an existencial crisis*
I like the theory that the Tyranids are actually running from something far more terrifying. They are just trying to survive though that theory is quickly deflated by the fact that they haven't flown into the galaxy the same way.
Preston Garvey they’re running from Gork and Mork, beings so great that they are in every fathomable direction
@@prestongarvey1857 another settlement needs my help? *sighs* I'm on it
@@prestongarvey1857 It could just be that the threat is tailing the nids at a warp-century or warp-millenia's delay or so, and the hivemind works on such a huge timescale that what it considers a ten-minute run for its life looks, to us, like several dozen lifetimes' worth of systematic galaxy consumption.

Blizzard based the Zerg off the 'Nids, Starcraft started as a hoped for 40K licensed game. No license came through, so they kept running with their own ideas. 20 years later...
@@DetectiveLance yeah that's my point. Blizz's just watered down the Tyranids.
Yep, and people keep calling it a ripoff even though the stories are pretty different
The one thing I'm considering about this is that when the Inquisition says to "Wait at your terminal." I'm willing to bet the possibility exists of someone simply dying of old age waiting for them to determine guilt
Sentenced to life.
Feeding the Orks to the Nids is like basically throw gas on a fire
Yeah they will be duking it out. Ork deaths turn into biomas to create more nids but also the spores from the Ork blood will turn into more orkz.
Some would argue it is the Tyranids that are being fed to the Orks

Oof, The Templin Institute is being hunting by the Inquisition. That could make for a great fan fiction.
Also I love that even Chaos is piss scared of these guys.
""WE ARE THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE! POWER! DESTRUCTION! DEEEEATH!"
"Master... The bugs are here..."
"... You know what. That system over there looks a lot more fun."
El Psy it’s not that their afraid of the Tyranids, but their minions lose their connection to the immaterium. To top it off, Khorne hates Tyranid ichor (that’s bug blood), they can’t be corrupted or manipulated so that means Teenztch and Slanesh are out too, and if Nurgle throws a plague at them, they will just adapt
Basically, imagine the Chaos gods as four sadists who get their kicks from torturing material species, humans, Eldar, Orcs, Tau and even Necrons all scream to their delight, but the Tyranids just give them a blank soulless stare, even as the chaos gods lay into them. To the chaos gods, the Tyranids are not only no fun, but also rival predators
So yeah, not so much fear, but piss drunk mad, was why when The Great Rift opened, the demons went and made a skull pyramid out of the Tyranids, it was sweet sweet revenge for the world of Shadowbrink
Frankly speaking, adventures of Templin Institute Field agents could make for interesting mini (midi-?) series.
Going to another system will not save them. For the Chaos is DELICIOUS. And we do not see any reason to let something so tasty get away.
SephirothRyu tyranids cannot absorb chaos forces, tyranids actively avoid chaos forces because it gives them a net loss in bio mass which means they lose more forces than they gain which for a species like tyranids is very bad
@@SephirothRyu The factions the Tyranids usually avoid are the Necrons and Chaos. Necrons give them no organic matter to use (though some reports claim Tyranids can consume necrodermis but it provides little material to use) and Necrons use atomizing weaponry, which means the Tyranids can't recover destroyed bioforms. Chaos is made up of mostly immaterial stuff which means if they kill a Bloodletter or some other daemon it simply vanishes. Tyranids also have a passive ability called the shadow in the Warp, which essentially means that the sheer amount of psychic presence given off by the swarm cuts off any connection to the Warp (Chaos needs the Warp to function). Basically if a planet has been consumed by the immaterial forces of the Warp, the Tyranids would get very little organic matter from that planet, for as soon as their fleet gets close anything warp tainted gets sucked back into the Immaterium.
When the tyranids first attacked ultramar, and attacked and ate prandium, they literally ate a planet named “breakfast” .
I love 40k lore references.
Which race is the scariest to be invaded by, Necrons, Chaos daemons or Tyranids? Nids!
you can reason with Necrons to some degree
you can convert to chaos and join the Demons...
with Nids you can't really talk with something that looks at you like a chicken nugget

Necrons: Spooky Scary
Chaos: Kinky Scary
Tyranids: Instinctively Scary (as prey is to a predator)
@@triggerme6144 Other crons don't really like them, and not every cron is a flayed one (though it's possible that more and more will suffer the flayer virus). Most necrons - even sautekh, among the most genocidal of the dynasties - just keep them in a pocket-dimension, let them out to flay some poor guardsmen, and send 'em back after fashioning new clothes out of the freshly-harvested flesh. If you meet Sautekh lords, then yeah, that's almost guaranteed to happen to you, but Trazyn and the like will probably be willing to at least hear your arguments before bringing out the butchers (see: Trazyn and Cawl becoming buddies in Battlefleet Gothic 2).
The Nids ends with you dying. The Chaos daemons will make sure your suffering continues long after your death.
Doom guy wants to know your location
Disagree. Nids will rip you apart. That might suck but compared to dark eldar who will torture rape you for years or Chaos doing some sick shit like the daemonculaba, I'll take the nids everyday.

Imperial Propaganda and what Templin wants them to think. If you think those Imperial Neanderthals can hope to Mach a organization capable of crossing different realities, you are gravely mistaken.
The Templin has been declared heretical
It is a procedural function of the Inquisition. They do this to cause fear in the persons involved and hopefully forestall any further actionable violations.
The Templin Institute is safe from the Inquisition, as it exists outside normal space and time. If the Inquisition could get at the Templin Inst, then they would make a treasure of their knowledge and information as if it were one huge STC. After all, the Templin Inst. is not effected by the Warp or Chaos and they have or will have ALL the knowledge.

That doesn't necessarily mean every galaxy around the milky way has been devoured by the Tyranids. It could simply be a case of strategic redeployment so that the galaxy can be attacked on multiple fronts.
1. It's scary that no one knows.
2. If the Tyranid is in fact using strategy to attack on multiple fronts, why wouldn't it coordinate multiple attacks to hit the galaxy at the same time?
3. The fact that the Tyranid have been encountered in staggered engagements implies that:
a. The Tyranid swarm is not capable of strategy, but merely acting on a primal instinct to consume all life. The early Tyranid gets the biomass.
b. The Tyranid can, in fact, strategize. Staggered attacks is a method of probing the strength of possible resistance + weaken defences. The main attack is yet to come.
@Mikeyboi1225
Thanks for pointing that out. It only took me 2 years to fix it.
Or the the scattered effect of the nids hitting all sides with no rhyme or reason is simply the scattered and disorganized hairs of a large stampeding body of Xenos..as if fleeing from something that has startled the back of a herd, with the rest is yet to come...
Personally I subscribe to the idea that they are attacking from beneath the galactic plane, as some smaller fleets seem to just pop up into the middle of the galaxy rather than from the edge
Just do Forces of Chaos, then Inquisition will go nuts.
Tyranids are originally attracted to the Light of Pharos, mistakenly activated in the Heresy era.
Well, it was activated on purpose if I remember correctly.
@@Choppytehbear1337 Yeah the Loyalists were losing, and overloaded the Lighthouse.
Updooted. Came here to say this. It was the Pharos beacon, not (necessarily) the astronomican.
Tyranids are basically huge moths atracted to lamp
@@oliverf.9955 See, now I want those moth memes to return, but with Tyranids and various psychic beacons instead.
I would like to proclaim my innocence to any and all that would proclaim heresy. All I was looking for was some information on a creature deemed to be the enemy of mankind.

It's also known as, "Effects"
The institute was in their dimension
"We cannot live through this. Mankind cannot live through this." - Magos Varnak.
We cannot knowif this is true.
Perhaps the Tyranids are a young race and have only consumed 1 Galaxy, perhaps they have consumed millions.
Perhaps they have been already defeated in their galaxy and fled to ours, perhaps they were created by the Old Ones to fight the forces of Chaos. And they can be defeated. The Necrons and Orks have beaten the Tyranids many times.
Again, we cannot know. In the worst case scenario...
*...they are running from something even worse than them.*
Magos is a heretic and will be promptly executed as soon as his location has been found out. everyone else agreeing with Magos Varnak will also be executed, and the planet they are on promptly exterminatused. any disagreeing with the Inquisitorial decision will also result in your location being promptly exterminatused.
Any Disagreements?

Gene stealer spotted…Inquisition.here …loook here…Oh my god…
To me, one of 40k's greatest successes has always been the void combat, that ingenious transferral of "age of sail" tactics and themes into a sci-fi setting. Something about massive ships unleashing broadsides at close range just really appeals to me.
And a big part of why that concept works so well in my head is the Tyranid's Hive Ships playing the role of Space Krakens. 😁👍
Tyranid hive mind : yo Chaos Gods, sorry we already eat the rest of the universe and brought our own Warp with us
The extra touch of the Inquisitorial censorship was perfect. Bravo!

It would be heresy to lay exterminatus upon holy terra, not even the most radical inquisitor would dare to do that
@@lv_Mortarion_vl what if we are the terra from the first horus heresy book?
Now I’m imagining the “FBI open up” meme but with imperial inquisitors
*HOLY IMPERIAL INQUISITION OPEN UP HERETIC*
I like how the warhammer factions have like 3 edge cases representing all that defines the lore.
There are the chaos gods with the advance of magic.
There's the humans with the advance of technology
And of course there's the turanids with the advance of life.
All the other factions are somewhere in that spectrum, like the multiple human factions in part dealing with demons, the necron who are magical robots, the orcs who are essentially human bioweapons. It really does mesh in an interesting way
Hope you guys do the genestealer cults too, they have a lot of potential for interesting writing and exploration of Imperial society and are just scary as all hell
Alfredtg Their’s is a interesting hierarchy. I can see them doing a short video on them. As they are found not just in human societies.
The fun begins in hive cities were you have krimnal gangs, mutant raiders, heretical cults and genestealer cults so much fun to live there.
@@Siegberg91 There is definitely a lot to explore there, but personally I would be far more interested in a different setting, seeing as Genestealer cults are so often portrayed within hive cities or other places that are effectively the same. MacNiven's shrine world Piety 5, for instance.

@@Kez_DXX Basically a 100%

May be? Hive fleets have entered the galaxy from separate directions, meaning they have already consumed other galaxies and are not coming from one particular source.
Sir! They have us surrounded with heavy vehicles and infantry!
Those poor bastards.

@@almightybogza « It is said multiple times that the Imperium of Man is the strongest faction.»
Not necessarily.
I mean, sure, the Imperium VS all tyranid fleet that already came into the galaxy ? That's no problem.
But if these were only the vanguard... Then praise the Emperor, because the Imperium wouldn't have enough man, or ammo, to fight them and win. And yes, I do know that their flashlight have virtually infinite ammo, that's precisely my point.
Imperial Guard: Nooooooo you can’t just devour entire entire galaxy!!!!
Tyranid Hive-Mind: HAHAHA HIVE FLEET GO NOM NOM NOM NOM
Necrons: finally a worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary!
Aww I've been bamboozled
Guess im gonna wait now

They are both Xenos. Nothing more.
@@bloodraven1190 well a hive tyrant and carnifex are very different foes. one is a leader creature and should be shot full of holes first.

Never shoot the leader first, the only thing worst than tyranids are tyranids that are no longer controlled by the hive mind !
First shoot the heavy hitters, then deplete the ranks of smaller creatures, then retreat, then kill the tyrants and other synapse creature so that you won’t be overrun and they’ll eat themselves.
Zerg: "we are the swarm"
Tyranid: "Hold my genes"
Well, Starcraft was supposed to be W40k Game....
Tyranids scare the crap out of me.
Frightening as all hell, worse even. Pretty much exactly what lives in the darkness that God separated from the Light. The Gods care about us a lot, i can only imagine they care a great deal more about celestial bodies. So, from that perspective the Tyranids are an evil far worse than Satan
@leroy shane I can appreciate your perspective somewhat, but I disagree. The Tyranids wouldn't be aware that emotion exists, unless to assess the state of mind of their prey, as with fear and determine whether their prey are afraid of them or not. But they couldn't understand something like love. I agree that they're just hungry but their methods and tactics speak of an evil mindset, I understand that it is because I've experienced similar thoughts myself
That you would think even the Dark Eldar are not evil makes me wonder if you think evil exists at all? They chose to do that, addicted to pleasure, would meet the needs of their addictions at any cost and no concern for what they were becoming in the bigger picture. Think about how much more intelligent the Eldar would have been than Humans (and in every aspect or form of intelligence, including emotion and empathy). Those who remained as original Eldar decided not to go down that road.
How can the Chaos Gods be evil if they were manifested from the emotions of all beings in the material Universe? I don't doubt that their intentions and motivations are evil, but their origin may not have been their choice.
Good and evil is a deep and complex subject, and a lot of it depends on your perspective. I've become evil myself because of my resentment towards those who hurt me in my life, while ignoring and conveniently forgetting the harm I did to others. The way I see it, evil is like a bottomless pit that's easy to fall into while running the tightrope of life, if we manage to stay on it then we are good. Almost no one can remain innocent forever as we get tested by the harm in life; how we deal with our pain defines us and pretty much sets up how we treat others. I've found that despite my best intentions, I hurt people deeply against my own will and discovered the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. But then, I thought I was all goody-two shoes when I had bullied other people as a kid. I ignored my Shadow and it caught me by surprise.
Giving the benefit of the doubt is good but turning a blind eye to malevolence isn't. I suppose the situation of the Galaxy in 40k is very unfortunate, but that doesn't mean most races are not evil despite the necessity. The Tau seem good, but they're very young and inexperienced not to mention they're liars and don't practice what they preach. IMO the original Eldar are good, tested by life and seem to have remained benevolent and keep positive aims in mind. They didn't succumb to fear like the Imperium
@@spiralviper8158 That hit home square man.. couldn't agree more!
@@spiralviper8158 The original Eldar being good? Well, I like the Eldar too, but they would gladly sacrifice billions of humans just to save a handful of their own, so that is indeed debatable...
@@TheRogueminator that makes them good. "just to save a handful of their own" - that's their own, and a handful is worth saving. we on the other hand are that narcissistic to doubt the goodwill of anything that would kill us for any reason meanwhile we go around doing all that and worse to anything we have to, or simply want to
Someday, I'd love for Games Workshop to start a 40k story arch where, for some reason, the astronomican is stopped. Just as the citizens of the empire begin to panic, they realize that ships are still arriving at Earth...even without the astronomican. As all of their beliefs are called into question, the Empire falls into chaos and civil war...
Benjamin Grist well at current, half the galaxy is cut off from the astronomican.

Sounds like heresy.
17:09 - that was in all seriousness a real shocker. Just when you thought the 40k universe could not get any more bleak... but congratulations on structuring the video that way. It really brought home the sheer terror of the tyranids.
In th codex it says something about the Tyranids leaving behind the barren husks of dozens of consumed galaxies. Meaning they have already destroyed at least 24 other galaxies, the size of the true Tyranid fleet is immense
@@the_dropbear4392 In fact i laugh when i see comments saying "the orks won, the tyranid fled, the waagh is more powerful than hive fleets". The Tyranids have consumed indeed thousands of galaxies, they think realistically that it would be possible with fleets so small like Behemoth or Leviathan? They are mere scout troops in my opinions, that still caused untold devastation from chaos, to orks, to eldar and humans. The orks fan are delusional
@@Apocalypse2000
Yeah, especially since the nids are wining in Octavius
@@Apocalypse2000 real question is this: can Tyranids effectively and permamently sterilize planet from Orc infestation. If they can.... well..... let them. In occassion, patch up warp rifts. Then awaken the Necrons.
These videos are so excellent not just because of the cool artwork or good voice-over, or even the delivery of the factual information on the subject. It's how that information is weaved into a story, like some of the best entries of the SCP Foundation. The bits at the beginning and end about the light of the Empra and how it may have drawn them, the galaxy might be surrounded, etc. They made everything in the middle so much more fascinating and meaningful, and framed the story of the Tyranids within the larger scope of the 40K world. Very nice work as usual.
By the emperor, the institute needs to spring for a better firewall.
The Imperial intervention and the ending where pure gold, the end specifically left me with the sense that there's no hope for any living creature in the galaxy. Really loving how the Templin make this lore videos.
I liked the Inquisition touch you put in...very clever. :]
My heart honestly skipped a beat when the transmission got intercepted. Talk about creative video casting
Templin Institute is a great channel, criminally undersubbed and underappreciated.
5:25 Let's give this Skitarii a hand, this man is an absolute legend.
*YOU CAN'T STOP THE SIGNAL*
Sick that the inquisition hacked the transmission.
Could this be a story subplot ???
Hope so
The Tyranids are fantastic because they are so deliciously mysterious. It is more the threat of the unknown, especially the last point made in this report, than the hordes of monsters that sends chills down the spine. Perfectly done.
When I saw the first glitch at 6:30 I thought "Oh this is going to be good". Was not disappointed.
Meanwhile in the hivemind of the Tyranids: “waka waka waka waka”
Though never a verdant world, the lifeless ball of rock that we discovered was unrecognizable as Tyran Primus. The creatures that did this are a threat to the galaxy and must be exterminated by the light of the God-Emperor."

Day 2 After Contact. Hive Redoubt. Vitality Secundas.
Constantine Tanner Logs.
I fired my Bolt Pistol into the six limbed Nightmare as it sprinted towards me.
Three Shots; two in the chest, one to its bulbous skull, through its vicious snarling face.
Carried on by its own momentum, the Genestealer crashed headfirst into the street, just eight foot from me.
"Nearly had you Tanner" scoffed Bullhead, my last surviving Enforcer. A real bulwark of slab muscled flesh.
"I am aware mate" I replied with more bravado than I felt.
My gang had all been devoured just hours after the Tyranid vanguard had emerged.
Genestealers by the hundreds, the Hive did not stand a chance. Within hours all Adeptus Custodes had been massacred, after all Custodian detention centres were hit simultaneously.
Now Genestealer Kill-Teams stalk the recesses of the Hive City. Seeking out any resistance and destroying it with massed ambush tactics.
Outside the hive, the Great Devourer is landing the swarm onto the planet. PDF forces have already started digging in around all the major hive cities.
"Do ya reckon the PDF know the Hives been Infested?" Bullhead queried out loud. "I mean they already know right Tanner? They've gotta know.."
I shook my head. Naive Hope.
The hive had been sealed when the emergence began, locking us in. The Hive was now a Tin of Tyranid Food.
"No they won't know until it's too late, lad" I answered a little too melancholic, but matter o factly.
I was under no illusions. There was no happy ending here for anyone. Just a living wave of ending, all needle sharp teeth and scything talons.
We were all dead.
The whole planet.
But that doesn't mean we gotta lie down and wait does it......
I assume you mean't adeptus arbities (space cops) instead of adeptus custodes (Emperor's personal bodyguards).
Maclunkey
Holy fuck that was dark... nice work or is it a quote?
I felt genuinely scare after that. No joke - that ending, as well as the grimness you narrated it with left me with a feeling of dread deep within. It took a good couple of minutes for me to remind myself it was only a video - at which point I sat down and watched it again. You've gone above and beyond this time.
The Great Devourer
Liked, already knowing it’ll be good!
Beautifully done, my friends! Reminds me a bit of the [CENSORED] from Starship Troopers...
A bit, but believe me, the Tyranids a like 1.000.000 times worse than the Bugs...
@@Rustie3000 Welll not quite.... and if by any chance they indeed are... too bad, as MI is easily on pair, if not more capable than space marines! There, I've said it!
@@piotrd.4850 i would disagree. For a starter? What do the Bugs from Starship Troopers do? Run around on their planets and occasionally start a war with other species by throwing asteriods at them via plasma artillery. I believe that's also their only means of intergalactic travel.
Meanwhile the Tyranids are believed to have a giant hive fleet greater than THE ENTIRE MILKY WAY and are on their way to devour it. They don't just colonize planets. THEY ANNIHILATE THEM. They leave nothing behind than barren rocks floating in space. And they are almost unstopable.
If you really believe the bugs are equal or worse than the Tyranids, then you don't know enough about the latter.
Also the human military from Starship Troopers is closer to the Imperial Guard in Warhammer 40k than anything. And if you need to know anything about the Imperial Guard then it's that they are just a giant meatshield for any other human army. They die like flies for the Imperium.
@@Rustie3000; I know I’m extremely late, however you are talking about the movie, and Mr. Dudała seems to be talking about the book. In the movie, the Mobile Infantry is barely-functioning military unit that primarily uses human-wave tactics, and the bugs are a technologically incapable hive mind. In the book, the Mobile Infantry is a military body that equips its soldiers with advanced powered armor, including pervasive jump packs, and such hand held weapons as nuclear missile launchers. Meanwhile, the bugs are eusocial species capable of using advanced technology, whilst also being almost impossible to eradicate, and possessing a distributed hive mind. In addition, both factions were capable of diplomacy.
@@thatman8562 Well, i was indeed talking about the content of the Starship Troopers movie, never read the book. Is it worth a read?
Just to compare the facts you brought up about the Bugs to the Tyranids:
- The Tyranids also have a gigantic hive mind and they not only use it to communicate and coordinate but also to destroy their enemies mentally (i think this was stated in the video)
- The Tyranids also use advanced (Bio)Technologie and are constantly engineering their own species to overcome any new threat to their existence
- I'm not quite up to the WH lore, but i believe what makes fighting the Tyranids so difficult for Humanity is the fact, that most weapons commonly used are completely ineffective against the 'Nids and the ones that are are incredibly rare in use
- As for diplomacy, i don't know if i would count that as a strength. It might show the species' intelligence but what makes the Tyranids so damn fucking scary in my opinion is the fact, that you can't have deplomacy with them. They don't listen, they just kill and devourer you without any second thought or hesitation and nothing will make them stop
Minor correction. It is the presence of the Black carapace in the tyrant guard, that indicate incprporation of space marine genetic material, as it is one of the organs implanted during an aspirants ascension into an Adeptus Astartes (Games Workshop, Codex Tyranids 4th Edition)

This video right here, Inquisitor-
Oh my god it actually worked...
This is gonna be a heckin’ banger

The best game of tabletop 40k I played was my buddies Tyranids vs. my Astra Militarum. I kept letting him respawn his nids until he wiped me off the board. Good stuff
I seem to remember, seeing on a WH40K galactic map that the Tyranids went out of their way to avoid a Dyson Sphere in the end of one of the arms of the Milky Way Galaxy. Something even they can't deal with.
SEE I TOLD YOU!! I TOLD YOU to be careful when dealing with the Imperium!! Crap now they know about the existence of other verses or at least aware of those that comes from such.. Well I guess it could be worse. At least its not Chaos or the Eldar...

The more closer the inquisition is too undertstanding the existence of a multiverse full of life and energy
@@valentinov901 if it was only that it would be simply meh okay just file it for someone to look into and it sits there for a thousand years or more until someone takes a look. The issue was that It mentioned that DNA from the Emperor of Mankind might be now part of the Tyranid's and that's a big oh crap and something that does need to be kept under wraps given the state of the Empire. So yeah The Empire is going to be more suspicious of activity like this if it brings up information that can bring potential issues to the Imperium.
i never understood the lore of the tyranids and how much scary they were until this video,
the Imperium is doomed
@Lord Inquisitor Steiner von Willhelm Did you take into account the Tyrannids ability to affect the Warp?As long as they have that the Imperium's ability to communicate let alone counter attack will be impossible unless they develop a counter measure which is ironic because Warp base weaponry is considered heretical.
Not only Imperium, the whole factions is threatened, even Chaos. If human extinct, no one will fuel the chaos gods, i think they will fade eventually
@@jlokison Thanks for clarifying those facts I also didn't know the Nids were not FTL
@@jlokison I feel the need to point out that the eldar regardless of background would likely put aside their differences to deal with the tyranid threat. Mankind would of course be inclined to agree.

Also, Orks.

Wow. The Tyranids make the Zerg and the Flood look not so bad.
