The fact that this video seems to confirm the Imperium's darkest fear of an unimaginably huge tyranid threat having sent only a few exploratory tendrils into the galaxy is beyond terrifying
Agreed. That the trillions of Tyranids humanity has already faced, are but a drop in an endless ocean to the Hive Mind, makes Chaos look like a nuisance in comparison.
@@Orthuzz Why? We are at War As long as we are not the Target by the Necron Weapons It's Fine by Me or Create an Alliance to Stop the Tyranids and Chaos
The scariest thing about the Tyranids is any strategy that is used against them will usually only work once. They can adapt to everything from tactics used in single combat to military strategies that span several star systems Every time you hurt the Hive Mind in any way it calculates how it can prevent that happening again. Every bolter that is fired, every deployment of troops and order given on a ship’s bridge is data that the Hive Mind is gathering and connecting together to defeat you. You constantly have to one up your own strategy of dealing with them and unlike you they don’t have to think about anything but war, and they have direct control over every single resource that they own.
I once heard several theories about Tyranids and their goal: 1. They have already conquered many other worlds, and this one may be last. 2. Their attacks are all simple (in terms of tactics) because they are running away from something.
I've said it before, and i'll keep saying it: The Tyranids are the single worst threat the Galaxy has ever faced. The Silent King witnessed the heart of the swarm. After 60 million years of exile, having witnessed a war that tore the skies of old asunder, he witnessed the swirling, unending mass of uncreation that is the core of the all-life devouring horde, and after 60 million years of exile, eons of shame, for the first time in forever, he felt _afraid._ Not a thing will halt their advance. The swarm is coming, _war,_ is coming.
@@blackfalkon4189 You are aware that the Tyranids also have their own nightmare fuel, including but not limited to: worms that function as gut bacteria for their ships, bugs they use as ammunition so that they consume the target from the inside, bioplasma, acid, literal xenomorph stuff, and psychological torture? Drukhari don't want to do much, the amount of damage they deal is miniscule on the galactic scale. Tyranids, however, can and will attempt to replicate Drukhari techniques on a planetary or bigger scale if it is the best path to victory.
Be wary... malicious shadows seek every opportunity to get their hands on the emperor's.. artifact, for God knows what they want to do with it. Unless, you are generous to allow Traz- *ahem* the robotic-bug - spray collector to take it.
on actual lore, after the great rift that expandef after the fall of cadia, the splintered fleets of leviathan and behemot had a hard time consuming with in the eye of terror"s great rift influence planets, thus the hive mind created a new fleet from the remnant of behemot and leviathan called khronos, specialize in surviving with in the great rift and figjt against chaos related entites, one scenario happened when an imperial fleet was ambushed by the chaos fleet when suddenly khronos appeared and ignored and pass by the imperial fleet and went head on against thr chaos fleet,
That is what they seem to be doing. Destroying all sentient life will destroy the warp. The Tyranids are the cosmic clean up crew that comes in a wipes the slate clean when the psychic races have spawned too many evil gods.

I'm very very new to this, so please cirrect me if I'm wrong but right now I understand it like this: A Genestealer infiltrates a planet, makes some life forms on that planet stronger by giving them genes and turning them into hybrids, so they worship him for the power he's given to them. Also he manipulates them with psychic shenanigans. Their worshipment amplifies the Gebestealers psychic power and with enough worshippers he can act as a psychic beacon for the swarm. The Hybrids think they are gonna become one with the swarm when it arrives but their individuality is useless for the swarm, so the swarm just kills them and harvests their biomass and genes to create new obedient creatures that aren't hindered by a mind of their own but that still are adapted to the planet by using the hybrids genes... so in a twisted way the hybrids did become part of the Swarm, nice :D
@@rasendestroyer2701nah I think they are just infected, not made stronger. They are also incredibly oppressed by the imperium and the genestealers offer a better life by welcoming the "star gods".

"even now one is surging towards the eye" sounds like hive fleet kronos - perhaps the single player will feature them - every one was saying their campaign would be just nom nom nom but this wold add a higher purpose to them (anti chaos strike force)
4 years late, but it was indeed leviathan proper that surged into the eye, leviathan took the Cicatrix Maledictum's severing of its tendrils..... somewhat PERSONALLY. (not yelling just emphasizing the word)
0:47 Hmmm, where have I seen something like that before? TBF, 2:50 onwards does a great job on showing that what looks like a single organism really is just billions of ships swimming across the stars as one.
@@CaptainFirespitter The tyranid mass looks to be around 5 times the radius of the milky way in the video. If we assume that it is spherical and composed of 1km long ships flying in an extremely close formation with only 10km space between ships, that gives us around 4.5×10^53 ships. Of course, this is completely absurd because, assuming tyranids have the density of water, this would give the tyranids a combined mass of around 10000 times the high estimate for entire visible universe. The fleet would collapse into itself immediately.
SpaghettiToaster here’s the thing: it’s already confirmed in the lore that the Tyranids have consumed the majority of the universe already, The Milky Way is just one of the few that remain untouched. And they are supposed to be the true biggest threat to the entire universe (with the rumour that they may actually be fleeing from a supposed even BIGGER threat behind them, but it’s speculation), so it’d take all the factions uniting to hope to make an effective stand against them. And btw, I don’t disagree with your comment (hell, love the math behind it!), But uh... 40k isn’t the kind of setting you take seriously. 😅 It’s meant to be completely absurd in all aspects. Still love it and what you said regardless though
SpaghettiToaster oh, and technically they wouldn’t exactly be 10km together, they’re actually a few light years apart and stretched into separate fleets, but all serve the collective whole. And many of those strands are actually tiny fleets that would still be thousands of ships strong. If the Nids were already fully clustered like you said in the math, The Galaxy would’ve already been consumed. Just pointing a few things out for you. 😅
From the mightiest hero to the lowliest wretch, the most devout of the faithful to the most blasphemous heretic, the newborn babe to the ancient bones of the Emperor Himself... in the end, the only difference between them is how they taste.

They should seriously consider making a Warhammer 40K MMORPG. Their world building and lore is extremely vast, engaging, interesting and dark. I love it.
a couple of problems: First, they made a warhammer fantasy MMO. It didn't do so well so they're probably reluctant to try again Second, classes and factions. The imperium would be far and away the most popular faction, orks would be a distant second (da boyz is loyal!) and all the others would be lightly populated at best. Balance would be shot as soon as the servers went live.
Terrifying how all the horrors of the warp, chaos influence, the birth of a literal chaos god and its expanding eye of terror, all this unfathomable eldritch horror and all factions surrounding this is nothing compared to the tyranid threat....this is the literal end of the galaxy, suddenly the dark eldar staving off an eldritch phenomenon doesnt sound as bad, and if warhammer were to end, the tyranids made sure of it, scary stuff
@@thebighurt2495 not to mention that orkz- you know, the xenos that have no concept of peace? they signed peace treaties with man because of the vast difference in power and weapons :p

Ask Ordo Xenos...
Private owners buys them thinking they are just some exotic feral xenos.
@@Randomguy-wd5lw And I ain't gonna let that damn Carol Baskin take them away from me!

If they take my xenos from me then I'm gonna make this place look like space Waco.

A video to watch while eating breakfast
"even now one is surging towards the eye" sounds like hive fleet kronos - perhaps the single player will feature them - every one was saying their campaign would be just nom nom nom but this wold add a higher purpose to them (anti chaos strike force)
4 years late,
but it was indeed leviathan proper that surged into the eye, leviathan took the Cicatrix Maledictum's severing of its tendrils..... somewhat PERSONALLY.
(not yelling just emphasizing the word)
Yeah, surging towards the eye of terror because having your tentrils cut off by massive warp rifts _stings_ just a little bit.
They be like , mate who dafuc who think you are ?

YAAAAAAAY
Broodlord kuuuun~
This is why Szarek, the Silent King wants to get rid of them
0:47 Hmmm, where have I seen something like that before?
TBF, 2:50 onwards does a great job on showing that what looks like a single organism really is just billions of ships swimming across the stars as one.
More like trillions
Adrian Cardona beyond trillions.
Numbers beyond counting.
@@CaptainFirespitter The tyranid mass looks to be around 5 times the radius of the milky way in the video. If we assume that it is spherical and composed of 1km long ships flying in an extremely close formation with only 10km space between ships, that gives us around 4.5×10^53 ships. Of course, this is completely absurd because, assuming tyranids have the density of water, this would give the tyranids a combined mass of around 10000 times the high estimate for entire visible universe. The fleet would collapse into itself immediately.
SpaghettiToaster here’s the thing: it’s already confirmed in the lore that the Tyranids have consumed the majority of the universe already, The Milky Way is just one of the few that remain untouched.
And they are supposed to be the true biggest threat to the entire universe (with the rumour that they may actually be fleeing from a supposed even BIGGER threat behind them, but it’s speculation), so it’d take all the factions uniting to hope to make an effective stand against them.
And btw, I don’t disagree with your comment (hell, love the math behind it!), But uh...
40k isn’t the kind of setting you take seriously. 😅
It’s meant to be completely absurd in all aspects.
Still love it and what you said regardless though
SpaghettiToaster oh, and technically they wouldn’t exactly be 10km together, they’re actually a few light years apart and stretched into separate fleets, but all serve the collective whole.
And many of those strands are actually tiny fleets that would still be thousands of ships strong.
If the Nids were already fully clustered like you said in the math, The Galaxy would’ve already been consumed.
Just pointing a few things out for you. 😅
Necrons:You can't eat us
Tyranids:We can try
When you really think about it, as large as the universe is. this could be a possibility
From the mightiest hero to the lowliest wretch, the most devout of the faithful to the most blasphemous heretic, the newborn babe to the ancient bones of the Emperor Himself... in the end, the only difference between them is how they taste.
And they all taste like chicken.
@@paulsmart4672 Or pig, if those ol' cannibal confession stories are true. Waste not, want not ;)
Probably one of my favorite xenos species.
Mostly because of their appearance.
Imagine if the Tyranids got to Terra, recent events have proven it to be quite vulnerable...
They ARE actually moving towards it.
@@valtersplume3726 And some say they are atracted towards the Astronomican...
@@axios4702 There is no if at this point. They were attracted by the pharos beacon and when they got closer to the galaxy they saw the light of the astronomican which has kept them coming. All hive fleets are headed in the same direction to the source aka holy terra
custodes actually do need to come down to terran gutter to exterminate them.
You'd think the Custodes just stand at attention looking shiny for hundreds of years, but they are actually as busy as any other faction.
Terminate the ‘Nids, as is the Emperor’s Will.
You will run out of ammunition. Or frankly of matter in the galaxy long before the hive-fleet is gone.
I feel like the tyrannids are the way you can get humanity and Xenos to work together . For all intellectual xenos you point out that the tyrannids are a larger threat than eachother and they come for everyone, and for the orks you just tell them that if war and krumpin is what they want they can get the most of it fighting tyrannids
You could even get chaos to join in, as if all sentient life is eaten, the chaos gods will starve and die out.
@@Mechagodzilla128 Do you expect the devil to do his side of the bargain on any deal you make with him?
@@VariusMayhem Tzeentch? No. Khorne? Yes. Unlike real demons, chaos daemons are both good and evil. Khorne is honorable, for example. If he agrees to something, he's going to do it. Trickery and deception is Tzeentch's thing.
Even chaos. Kabunda's saving Baal means at least some of them are willing to work with the Imperium against a larger threat, if only to take the final honour of ending it themselves.
So many perfect specimens for our newest batch of Nurgle's Rot :D
Great idea! Give the Tyranids a chance to not only become immune to it, but turn it against you.
*laughs in the Imperium literally using every form of chemical and bioweapon known and none of them working more than once*
The one thing that could make the grandfather stop smiling, aside from isha leaving. The nids.

That's going to take a LOT of bug spray.
im sorry but, bugspray, what is that?
Those tendrils reaching for the galaxy are fucking terrifying
@Ni-dk7ni Quadrillions of deaths, I'd say.
Just sic Marbo on 'em.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM.
Indeed! All this chaos, these marines, these orks! ITS ALL SO TASTY AND DELICIOUS!
3:12 The Eye of Terror. Something so vile and terrible, no one even wants to think about it.
Tyranids: *It's free real estate!*
More like free meal estate! 😋
@@RoxyGotMoxy. Tyranids will eat both Imperium and Chaos alike. Means nothing to them. Sure eating Nurgle's boys might give them a bit of indigestion, but it doesn't matter.
@@ennui9745 if it cannot be eaten, the Tyranids will evolve a way to eat it. All will be consumed.
We need to find the infinity gauntlet.
You DO Realize you just Kill the Half Of them Right?
Unless you Can Kill the Entire Species
Primarch Roboute Guilliman Lord of Ultramar shush primarch. Waddaya you know about anything?
@@ronanchristiana.belleza9270 The infinity gauntlet doesn't ONLY kill half of something, that was just Thanos' goal... the gauntlet itself could do anything its wielder can imagine, so long as they have the strength to command the stones to unleash enough raw power to make it so. On the hand of someone like a Primarch, who could withstand forces far greater than any strain the gauntlet has been shown to produce... it would be limitless
We Need the EMPEROR BACK asap!
Think about it if the Tyranid fleet would actually exist they would be so large they had their own gravitational effect in space that could be measured long before their arri .... oh shit.
The tyranids are the least evil beings in warhammer
i like how the hive fleets, are bigger than the entire galaxy they're in
I know of an inquisitor that may have an affection for tyranids saying and i quote "broodlord-kun"
Little do you know, Genestealers we’re the original NFT salesmen.
Some say the Tyranids are under the influence of 'the Outsider', one of the two C'tan who isn't enslaved and shattered to pieces by Necrons.
that's pretty flimsy, considering tyrannids have no souls
@@Biodeamon Well, there is a theory that the Shadow in the Warp is literally all the souls of every Tyranid in one place, thanks to the hivemind.
The idea of just not an entire fleet but their entire species being connected is terrifying if you think about it
Space marines: sick armor and weapons
Tyranids: *eat*
We're gonna need bigger bolters, Brothers.
Oh yes!
Behold, THE SPACE BUGS OF DEATH!!!
..............WHAT?!
I would love to see Leviathan go into eye of terror
Please, omg, omg is that the hive mind?! We knew and prophecised this day would come!
Your Delusions Die with you HERETIC.
What? "Hive mind" that doesn't exist. Shut up.
Remember kids, a couple of people are scared of Chaos.
EVERYONE is afraid of the Tyranids.
who the HELL thought it was a good idea to transport a live genestealer anywhere!
Who would win?
A master crafted, genetically superior hive mind with most likely multiple galaxies divoured, ever evolving, ever consuming, *unstoppable.*

I rly enjoyed all six frames of this animation
Imagine a game where you play genestealer hybrid cultists who's objective is to fulfill the almighty prophecy by causing chaos in an imperial hive world and weakening their defenses so that the divine can descend from the sky to bring enlightment...
They should seriously consider making a Warhammer 40K MMORPG.
Their world building and lore is extremely vast, engaging, interesting and dark. I love it.
a couple of problems:
First, they made a warhammer fantasy MMO. It didn't do so well so they're probably reluctant to try again
Second, classes and factions. The imperium would be far and away the most popular faction, orks would be a distant second (da boyz is loyal!) and all the others would be lightly populated at best. Balance would be shot as soon as the servers went live.
Terrifying how all the horrors of the warp, chaos influence, the birth of a literal chaos god and its expanding eye of terror, all this unfathomable eldritch horror and all factions surrounding this is nothing compared to the tyranid threat....this is the literal end of the galaxy, suddenly the dark eldar staving off an eldritch phenomenon doesnt sound as bad, and if warhammer were to end, the tyranids made sure of it, scary stuff
Would have been interesting to see how they would have dealt with the threat during the golden age of man
Back then, Mankind had Black Hole guns on ships, Imperial Knights were construction/farm equipment and Baneblades were as common as Leman Russes.
Tyranids are F U C K E D!
@@thebighurt2495 not to mention that orkz- you know, the xenos that have no concept of peace? they signed peace treaties with man because of the vast difference in power and weapons :p
@@thebighurt2495 bit late buttttt..... The only way to stop the Nids is to cut off the Hivemind's connection. Even the Silent King knows this.
Always wondered if the tyranids were like an Old One final contingency for if the lost the war and it just took forever to arrive
It would explain a lot actually and in my opinion makes more sense then a super organism that seems suspiciously engineered for nothing but pure destruction just happened to be near by and decided to pop in for super
Don't you just love, how at 0:30 they manage to steal Alfabusa's 'Shadow Over Immaterium' and noone bats an eye.

OMG is there is that many Tyranids out there, btw is that image canon
Yes. Yes it is.
And apparently, it’s confirmed they’ve already eaten 15 far larger galaxies on their way to the Milky Way.
If there was a time for the galaxy to unite, NOW is that time.
Bolastwo I’m still watching Alfabusa, because I need to catch up.
But I’ll definitely watch it.
Imagine you're a glass maker.
And you have to sell glass tubes for each Tyranid born from their statis womb.

@@farkasabel hrmmmm ahh yees.
@@farkasabel necrons are weak.
@@michaelbohm5160 the necrons are the strongest opponents of the tyranids. they are not biological and they destroy every biomass on the planets they conquer. The tyranids can't replenish their losses.
The Tyranids, the innumerable pinnacle of organic evolution, vs the Necrons, completely inorganic and masters of reality-bending technology so advanced it looks like magic to the lesser races. Should be an interesting fight.

good question Tyranids can close warp rifts with there presence if there's enough. So if the hive fleet flies into the eye will the eye close?
if they are many enough. they are nullifing the warp presence in their surrounding like blanks.
They even have a Hive fleet that specializes in doing exactly this. It's called Hive Fleet Kronos
@@BiohazardReactor yeah that's my favorite to use i just wish they weren't the gun line hive fleet
