‘‘Well, I reckon that depends on the manner of your death,’ said Jathrac. ‘You’ve a progenoid tucked away in there too, friend. If I get it back to your brothers, that’s you passing on the torch. You can dine at the All-Father’s table with your head held high.’
‘Negative. My flesh was found wanting.’
‘That’s not the way it works, old timer. Now open up.’
‘Status of sarcophagus clasp unit: disabled.’
‘Disabled, eh?’ said the Wolf Priest with a sigh. ‘Well, I’ve seen this done more than once.’ Jathrac pulled out his plasma pistol from its holster of walrus hide, pressing the maxis-node on the gun’s underside whilst intoning the chant of unbinding.
‘Do not open the sarcophagus, brother Wolf,’ said the Dreadnought sombrely.
‘Why not?’ growled Jathrac impatiently.
‘I am not worthy of the rite.’
‘For Russ’s sake. There are billions of voydwyrms out there, Radamarr. I have no time to play confessor. Let’s get you flasked.’
‘No!’ shouted the Dreadnought, its vox so loud that dust shook from the vaulted ceiling above.
Jathrac tucked the fat barrel of the plasma pistol under the lip of the sarcophagus. He shielded his face to avoid the blast of energy and the subsequent burst of amniotic steam that would leave the Dreadnought’s crippled pilot naked inside. Gritting his teeth, he pulled the trigger. The sarcophagus flew open with a deafening bang.
Nothing came out but a blast of warm, stale air.
Jathrac sniffed once, nose and forehead wrinkled in confusion. His horror mounted as he turned back to the yawning sarcophagus that had swung open before him. The Dreadnought’s interior contained a mass of wires, a few pitted bone cogs… and nothing else.
‘What in the name of Russ?’

Expediency,’ said the Dreadnought, its vox-tone flat.
‘Abomination!’ shouted the Wolf Priest, his plasma pistol whipping round with a whine of recharging power cells.
Suddenly the vault went pitch black. There was a whirr, a crunch of ceramite, and then silence. "

flying in the show is treated as being able to push yourself on space itself
like there's actual kinetic impact

True but there is the possibility that if you go fast enough it just

Like if you're going Superman type fast.
Then again, if you're going that fast, you probably have some type of invulnerability

and they sometimes "step" in the air

don't worry
become an ace combat protaganist

the show does address that humans can't be carried too fast or their skin would rip

Kropp was shot in the gut by a sniper, as he bled out he pleaded for someone to help him. His cries were cut off by a high powered lasgun discharge to the forehead.
Early into a mission Dachslaus engaged with a horde, however he underestimated the dimensions of his surroundings and slipped off the edge of the ruined hab zone. He managed grab the ledge. Dachslaus begged not to fall. Helpless and dangling for his life; a team of armored heretics equipped with two handed chain axes emerged finding an easy kill. Using their weapons like hammers they mauled each of his hands, and he fell long and far into the abyss of the underhive.
Herker rounded a corner and encountered a patrol of heretics at least two dozen strong. She was caught in the open and failed to react to their fire. She was killed instantly.

Which Xenos race is the biggest threat to Humanity? Tyranid? Orcs?
modern rapids
also "Xenos" is High Gothic, so would the casual world/Low Gothic word used just be "Alien"?
modern rapids
nids
that would make sense
at least you can outwit orcs, you can sow chaos, you could even trick them to start infighting
or you can kill key targets and wait for the waagh to cool down
but for Tyranids? what can you even do... are there any "queens" that you can kill for the horde to disperse or?
raven stone
Think the largest node organism IoM encountered is the Norn queens or something and even then that is not the actual Hive Mind.
modern rapids
Also a complete side note, but do the Tau not care for cooperation with humanity?
Like they are fine with the human race existing (Unlike the other way around), BUT they still want to rule over humanity?
Like I am guessing the average Joe's quality of life under the Tau would be much better than under the Empire, but you would still be under the rule of the Tau as an inferrior species?
modern rapids
Think the largest node organism IoM encountered is the Norn queens or something ...
So there is some unknown organism somewhere out there that is the single "mind" that controls all Tyranids?
raven stone
That is what has been theorised but never outright confirmed by lore
dusk patrol
Which Xenos race is the biggest threat to Humanity? Tyranid? Orcs?
I wouldn’t say there’s one for sure, Necrons, Orks and Nids can and are huge threats for different reasons
Right now it’s probably Nids
But it fluctuates and it wouldn’t take much for Necrons to become it or Orks to build momentum and become it
modern rapids
That is what has been *theorised* but never outright confirmed by lore
So "individual" Tyranids are not really individuals? Theorised that they are all just controlled by a single mind?

they obey the hive mind and they're basically more advanced

take Death leaper
this guy is smart enough to exploit the enemy's weaknesses
and can operate relatively speaking on his own no problem
he's more of an individual than your average lictor
but since it's still a tyranid it still obeys the hive mind
modern rapids
but since it's still a tyranid it still obeys the hive mind
okay I am a bit confused
so this Death leaper has a mind of its own? Like its own thoughts that are separate from the Hive Mind, BUT at the end of the day it is always obedient to the Hive minds commands?
queen laurel

no
modern rapids
I am so confused haha
queen laurel
okay I am a bit confused
at most its own thoughts is basically just
fulfilling the hive minds command
in the 1st place a tyranid is incapable of having its own thoughts separate from the hive mind
even the swarm lord which is the most individualistic of the bio forms is still bound to the hive mind
modern rapids
but there is some type of mind in there that experiences all that, like its not just the Hive Minds consciousness experiencing everything through this guys eyes?
like he has a consciousness, but its like 99.9% just following the hive minds control?

yes

on how to do it's job
think of it as basically as a perfect drone
Can follow orders and can think enough for itself to outsmart your enemies but not enough to the point that it's its own being
modern rapids
it most of the time it will think for itself
So the hive mind would give it commands to attack a certain place for example, but then this dude would usually think for itself on how to infiltrate said place
in combat if its going to swipe with its left or right claw

I am guessing from the individual Tyranid's point of view, it wouldn't feel like some mindcontrolling overlord trying to issue you unresistable commands, but more like just pure instinct that compels you to act and nothing feels better than to obey that instinct in whatever it calls you to do (obviously said instinct is so strong to these very undeveloped brains that there is no way to even resist it)
modern rapids
it's psychic
oh so like the Tyranids utilize the warp too?
queen laurel
oh so like the Tyranids utilize the warp too?
well no
they have creatures that use the warp but
the hive mind is a complete byproduct of the tyranid race
modern rapids
so psychic powers can be used without the warp too?
modern rapids
it's psychic
Does it have any range limit? Have there been any ways to interrupt it?
modern rapids
Also do we know at all how intelligent the Hive Mind is? Like in its actions can we see any kind of "big picture"?
Does it just want to eat any meal big enough or does it have some grand strategy of conquer?
or does even the Hive Mind work purely off of an instinct for survival and reproduction?
queen laurel
Also do we know at all how intelligent the Hive Mind is? Like in its actions can...
it's incredibly intelligent
even seasoned commanders can struggle from it because it can adapt so much
modern rapids
"but instead it is a grand agglomeration created from the psychic presence of untold billions of Tyranid creatures. It is a nightmarish and unfathomable intelligence that allows Tyranids to coordinate and adapt as if every Tyranid creature is merely a part of a single massive organism, one which is utterly focused on consuming all other life"
oooh so wait... it's not some "overlord" being, like it's own physical creature somewhere, but just all Tyranids combined?
opaque coyote

arctic talon
Tau don’t believe in slaves
