Ah Tyranids...a relaxing dive into terror and horror. Lovely

Ever since I started listening to 40k lore I find myself calling upon the Emperor for Strength.

[RamblinManTV]

Dude I'm so pumped to go tentacles deep on some Tyranid lore

[jeffreyzervos]

Imagine a 3 way war between the necrons tyranids and chaos. That be sick

[Dragsaw]

I hope games workshop in the future let tyranids Come in full force and are actually seen by all factions as a galaxy threat

So everyone has to work together to survive. It would be glorious and amazing

So I was on Facebook earlier and a short popped up. It was, of course about the Tyranids. The a thought hit me. What if the Tyranids are connected to one of the lost primarchs? What little we know, we do know they did something really really bad to be scrubbed from existence. So what if it was creating “abominations” of life to help fight the emperors war?

What leads me down this path is this, other than Fabius Bile, have you heard of any primarchs specializing in creating geneseed, primarchs, space marines, etc.? Each primarch was given both a boon and a curse of their father. So what if one of the lost sons possessed his genetic knowledge? What if that knowledge was utilized to weaponize life, not by the taint of chaos, but with making something akin to an early Tyranid? A bio virus that you dropped on a planet, spawns creatures that goes rampant, kills everything, and thus makes the planet ready for compliance.

The emperor forbid this method, the lost primarch said “screw you”, emperor banishes him and his legion to the outside of the galaxy, and the lost primarch vowed revenge by proving to his father that he could make something far superior his supposed greasers tools of war. That could explain why the Tyranids always seem to direct themselves to terra with every ingress into the galaxy. The lost primarch is attempting to reach his father to prove once and for all that he is the superior when it comes to making genetic weapons. “See dad! Told you you should have listen to me! Now be consumed!”

That’s what came across my mind when I watched the short on Facebook anyway.

Babe wake up, new Imperial Iterator just dropped

[Epyon-qrlh]

Once the Tyranids finish devouring the universe....Then they will begin to slumber. And as they leave a few life forms alive throughout the new Universe they have created The cycle begins again. An unending cycle of death, pain, agony, and rebirth. For the Tyranids are the true God's of this Universe, and we are just mear cattle in their eyes. All praise the Hive All praise the All praise the one true

You can tell that the Reapers from Mass Effect were based on the tyranid ships in 40k. Maybe the Emperor needs a Commander Shepard to save humanity

[JohnnyMnmonic]

I was just looking through all the channels trying to find new lore

[djashovel]

I'm still waiting for the tyrannids To be added to minecraft

It well be Glorious and horrifying

[Swankytygerr]

The Tyranids went out of their way to invade Baal. They went there for revenge.

[Shini]

Gorgon still lives! Due to plot armor for 10th edition xD

[RedPandaGod]

Blood Angels... "with the aid of the deamons of khorne blood legions" what.... what... that sounds like heresy up in here!!!
I know the demons of khorn showed up but were they not still enemies, turned a 2 way fight in to a 3 way fight, I would hardly say they aided the blood angels, unless your trying to get the inquisition involved to try to wipe out the rest of the sons of Sanguinius.

Asked before:
Please add subtitles for those, like me, that are hearing impaired.
The YT Subtitle system is horrendous, makes blatant error after blatant error, making it impossible to fully follow the videos.

Thank you.

Hive Fleet Colossus and the Zoats aren't really canon anymore FYI. Zoats are no longer connected to the Hive Fleets.
