    This was a fun video. GSC isn't usually a faction I get excited about, but when I was writing gaming lore for FFG 40k RPG, I created a terrible menace of one, to stalk the Koronus Expanse; the Cult of the Scattered Seedlings. They basically started when a charist captain's ship encountered a Space Hulk that had popped into the deep Expanse. Aboard this wreck were several Chameleonic Genestealers, and one of them got aboard the ship, once it's crew decided to run away. It started to turn the crew, and they eventually developed into a cult, but unlike most, it specifically didn't go and find a world to taint, instead electing to maintain its focus on the ship, and then slowly infiltrate another Cham GS into a population, and sail away. Basically, the cult seems to believe that the myriad warp storms that surround the Koronus Expanse will block its beacon call, so it is seeding threats indirectly throughout the region, hoping to create a number of beacons to combine, and call the Hive Mind. The way they operate, though, even if one of their groups, or infiltrators, is discovered, they are several steps separated from the ship, meaning that it is highly unlikely that anything will be linked back to them, and without the dedicated Imperial bureaucracy, they can avoid a lot of attention.

    • @matthewsmith9640
      @matthewsmith9640 Před 12 dny +3

      But Nurgle doesn't really devour--he brings as much cancerous growth as he does decay. Between Nurgle and the Tyranids, the long term advantage is overwhelmingly in Nurgle's favor. The Tyranids can't *afford* to ignore Nurgle.

    Here’s a scary thought: tyrannid orks, or more specifically, tyrannid bioforms that have learned to make conscious use of the greenskin’s reality-warping psychic abilities. If the entire gestalt Hive Mind focuses on a single idea, and the greenskin’s power of belief is utilized, the hive fleets would be truly unstoppable. Perhaps they will focus on being immune to laser fire, thereby making the Militarum entirely useless, or worse, RESTORED by lasers. Perhaps they will focus on all Astartes turning against humanity, robbing the Imperium of its greatest weapon, and it will be a corruptive influence that not even the Grey Knights can resist for it is not born of Chaos. Worse still, what if they focus on the thought that all creature of the galaxy mutated into mindless piles of biomass? No resistance, just food waiting to be devoured.
