FUCK YES YOU ARE THE BEST SLUG PRIMARCH EVER.

>>6695674
OH FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

....

......

AWESOME.

Break it's wings. Give it a psychic FEAR BLAST, and FOLLOW it back to it's WRETCHED HIVE.

Should we call to our own for reinforcements?

>>6695674
FUUUUUUCK YEEEEEEES

OH YES! I WAS RIGHT! YES!

We DO NOT KILL IT! We need information from this thing. Let's try and psychically stun it some more so we can get it back to the hive. Should be easy to do with all of us restraining it.

We shall return triumphant and proud!

HOLY SHIT

"WHAT ARE YOU"

"WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS"

"YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS TO SPEAK BEFORE I RIP YOU IN HALF"

Give it a taste of our own ovipositer, if you catch my drift.

Rip it's ovipositor off!

so do you want oral or anal?
because your fucking magnificent

>>6695674
Read it's fucking mind! Tear a bit of its flesh off and see if it is as uneddible as it's spawn!

IMMEDIATE MIND RAPE AND COERCIVE/REDACTIVE PROBE. ASSESS THE MONSTER'S FIVE PRIME FACULTIES AND PREPARE FOR FURTHER INFORMATION RETRIEVAL.

>>6695689
I don't know. It's our size and more powerful than our original spawn one on one, and has clearly assimilated a ton of different creatures. It may not use a hive structure. And considering how fast it can climb even without using its wings, we'd never catch it again.

Kill it now to please the brood, we are not going to take any chances. If we encounter another then so be it, we will try some more esoteric strategies.

>>6695706

Aaaaand it's slugbear-on-slugwasp raeptime.

Jeez, what took you guys so long?

The thing is a hideous abomination. It's like some sort of dragonfly, with seven twisted wings and thirteen tentacles for mouths, and five eye-stalks that are streaming with... tears? Its body is hideously mishapen, with an ovipositor that shouldn't be there coming out of its tail, that is curved beneath it.

"... Flyer..?"

The hideous abomination glares up at you hatefully and begins to spew out mad, psychic noise, as drool and tears flow down its hideous mockery of a face.

"OMNIARCHISALLOMNIARCHISALLOMNIARCHISALLOMNIARCHALLOMNIARCHALLMIARCALLMIARCALLMIRCALLMICALLMICA
LLMICALLMICALLMIKILLMIKILLMIKILLMEKILLMEKILLMEKILLMEKILLME"

>>6695730

...

...

IA IA.

>>6695730
Grief. Pity. Mercy.

Goodbye, Flyer. We will end your suffering.

Break our dear friends neck.

>>6695674
"YOU DARE TO SEED MY CHILDREN WITH YOUR VILE PARASITES AND TAINT THE SERVANTS OF THE ALMIGHTY SLUL-HOGGOTH! EVEN MY HERETIC SON WAS A MORE HONORABLE ADVERSARY THAN YOU, ABOMINATION. YOUR ILK CAN NO LONGER EXIST IN THIS WORLD, WE WILL CLEANSE YOU. FEAR US."

>>6695730
...Oh god.

WHAT HAS TZEENTCH DONE TO HIM???

>>6695730
Put the thing out of its misery.

>>6695730
poor flyer

at least he has the sense to beg for death

>>6695730
;__;

>>6695748

Dude, this is Flyer. This is our scout we sent out who never came back.

This is our child.

>>6695738
>>6695743
>>6695747
>>6695752
"KILLMEKILLMEKILLMEKILLM--"
Snap.

No one utters a single thing. Not a single 'sorry'. Nothing, nothing can make up for what has been done to your child.

>>6695730
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Ask him if there is anything left of flyer inside him to calm. To calm and tell him who did this to him! Tell him to tell his who we can kill for revenge after we free him from this torment!

>>6695730
D:

Oh god. The threat we face is even greater than we understood initially. There is nothing we can gain from prolonging flyer's gruesome half life any longer. Kill him, soothe the pain if possible, burn the body if possible, and bury the remains.

And there are VERY good reasons for each of those.

Try and soothe him with our mental powers. Send peace and love and grief. Try and coax some sense out of him, and when you have everything you can get, end his suffering.

did flyer have anykids?
also i shudder to think what this omniarch did to poor scout as well

Oh Gods... Try and rip the goddamn location out of its mind. Yell "WHERE IS OMNIARCH?!" into its mind.

And kill our poor child... quickly and cleanly.

>>6695769
We're gonna fuck up whoever did this to our baby boy.

.. what a waste of an opportunity.

>>6695782
Two Scoutspawn, actually. Not Scout.

>>6695769
We must find the source of these foul creatures, burn them, and salt the ground upon which they stood.

Before we kill Flyer we need to see if we can get anything coherent out of him. Ask him what has been done to him.

Perhaps he was captured by the scientists and mutated?

>>6695730

Kill it. For the sake of Flier, kill it quickly. It's the most you could do for flyer.
Take a sniff of it- perhaps it will be edible and eat it then.

"The loss of flyer shall be used for the benefit of the brood, his flesh rejoining ours, to be purified once more in rejoining the hive. . . May that give him solace as we hunt for what has done this to flyer. . . We will hunt for 'OmniArch'."

First priority should be to find out what
happened to him.

>>6695769
We will find what caused this to happen. And we will end it. For the glory of Slul-Haggoth, for the... Honor of Flier. For the Future of our Hive, that which has done this CANNOT be allowed to live.
We will hunt it.
We will find it.
We will end it.
This WILL be done.
Let us warn the hive. Then, we march.

RAGE!
SEETHE!
HATE!

He's already dead, you asshats.

>>6695794
I'm sad.
Why would someone do this to our children?

>>6695769
Flier was the problem the whole time.
We've gotta fuck their shit up.
better idea, we have to find out where they came from.
have we got anything that can detect scents?

>>6695730
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-
Pic related.

Shit.. anything, anything at all that can be done other than end what was once our child?

>>6695822
You do.
You've got Scout.

Right... we need to return to our hive. And we need to see if we can somehow track Flier's scent back to whatever did this.

Did we taste Schmahkah in the larvae we tried to eat?

>>6695730
FLYER, YOUR DEATH WILL NOT HAVE BEEN IN VAIN MY BEAUTIFUL SON!!!!
*SQUISH*

Now...up till this moment it was just survival, this...THIS is revenge from here on out
NOBODY fucks with us, and gets away from it, N O 1

>>6695840
Us, Blowfly, Spider, OHGODWHATFUCKAAAAHGGHAJGAKFAGJSNADGKADSG

>>6695840
No. It was just a monstrously altered Flyer.

Sermon time:
"What has transpired here today has shown us that our enemies are even more horrifying and terrible than we had imagined. But we have also learned that the true source of this taint, this "Omniarch" is WEAK. VULNERABLE. He fears US, and though he possesses dark powers beyond our capabilities, to have twisted Flyer in mind and body like this, the fact that he sent this abomination here to torment us instead of doing the job himself tells us that he KNOWS that WE CAN DEFEAT HIM."

so was he mindraped or what?

lets set up a schedule of mental sparring within our nest to strengthen the minds of all.

>>6695730
Good-night, sweet Flyer; And may the crooning of Slul-Hugoth sing thee to thy rest

>>6695852

Fuck. I think the scientists have found us.

Omniarch Is all.

The scientists have either made him a mad, mindless drone turned back to hunt us. Or another of our kind has found a way to twist and manipulate flesh itself.

The second seems impossible to learn to do, evolving as we have. We have our new enemy however.

The one calling itself the Omniarch

>>6695873
manlytears.jpg

make sure the Schmahk spawn that got jumped is ok.

>>6695877

Gentleslugs, our path is clear.

We must Kill All Humans.

>>6695859
You give your sermon before your children. They stand and listen solemnly. All of them. You even do it by the river so Fish and its children can hear. Everyone. Everyone must hear this. Everyone must feel your hatred. Everyone must know what the creature who did this - this Omniarch - must suffer.

I've been rendered speechless, went from FUCK YEAH TUSKPOONS >:D, to FFFFFFFF- Flyer! ;o;
Bravo Bioplasma.

>>6695832
Come, my children bring Flyer's body, we shall bury him as a hero for he has given us this message and a chance, a chance to know this threat to our existence. He will be remembered a hero for his sacrafice, let us begone from this foul place.

>>6695895
Omni gives me the impression that this thing is a sort of hivemind.

This sounds dangerous.

Get scout to try and get Flier's scent while it is still fresh.
Get him to try and track it back to its source.
Bring a few friends.
Bring everyone.
EVERYONE!

>>6695923
EVERYONE!

>>6695895
Make sure the spawn that volunteered gets the best treatment possible toward recovery. Note to include it in a cycle of gestation, this one is brave.

>>6695918
Yeah, I don't think we want to charge right at whatever that was, need to scout it out, but carefully, and likely personally to ensure a stronger mental defense is present.

Lets go Hunt, no one ever alone. No one moves alone. Try to go out in squads.

Lets get shit in order, we need webbers. We want hunters. We want protectors and breeders. Let's promote leaders of certian tasks, and let them breed, grow and eat as they see fit to do their jobs.

Then we find clues for this Omniarch personally.

Tank and Athlete should be our personal guard, and advisors.

>>6695929
This.

>>6695938
We do need to get Scout after it right away though, before any potential trail goes cold. And we can't have him go alone. I think even if we're not bringing the army right nwo we still need to personally oversee this.

>>6695941
THIS.

>>6695941
>Tank and athlete should be our personal guard
We do the advising around here.

Try to track it while fresh, then pull back and prepare. Eat more, Evolve, prepare the troops and lieutenants, then hit 'em.

>>6695941
Well, it's simple enough.

Scout has practically unmatched senses. It is aware of the scent of Flyer and it is gathering it. Despite the fact it doesn't like this one bit, it's willing to follow it to its origin.

>>6695960
Go with, track and fall back.

We're a fucking bear monster.

With boar tusks.

THAT ARE FUCKING HARPOONS!

We are hardcore as fuck.

>>6695971
If they feel they have some sway on our opinion they will like us even more. And eachother. And if they are of equal powers in mind and tactics, then they could prove useful.

Can I get a description of the main slug?

Try to figure out some way to expand our sensory capabilities. Goal: Being able to know if anyone is lost. Maybe have a communicator being as a sort of "radio man" in each group.

>>6696003
See this, and check the last thread.
>>6695998

>>6695992
We must accompany it, gather up a party to go with us, leave tank and athelete to protect the base.

We need at least a strong idea of what their turf is, don't need to go all the way into their front door though.

>>6696003
It's a drawfag!
Can... We get some swimmer rule 34?

>>6695992
We find the source and fall back. We're going with it.

>>6696003
You're big. Pretty damn fucking big. 4'9", to be precise. That's 142.5cm. Your teeth have become even more vicious and you even have a pair of hideous, mean looking tusks jutting out of your mouth - but your harpoon tongue is missing. Your tail has become more muscular and stronger. The hardened membrane covering your body has strengthened into chitin of sorts. Your body has also become much more muscular in all areas. Your webbed claws have transformed into finely tuned bear hands - so you've sacrificed swimming ability and manipulation in exchange for mauling power - although you still have opposing thumbs. You've fallen back into a crude gorilla gait as well, which helps your stability quite a bit. You also have very muscular backlegs now, too.

It's a rather bizarre appearance at this stage.

>>6696028
No.

>>6696018
>>6696036
Cheers, I might have something for you before this thread dies.

>>6695992

Wait, are those buildings there?

>>6696036
Hey Bioplasma, are you going to be running a Plasma quest sequel any time ever?

I admit, we got kind of too powerful for our own good, but it was a good quest, and one that concentrates on creating a space empire would be fun.

>>6696039
D:
But... She's a sexy blue, bald loli!

You arrive at the swamp houses.
It stinks of flesh and decay. Every trace of biomass nearby other than grass has been uprooted and consumed. There are cairns and piles of discarded bones and skulls everywhere, from all sorts of creatures. Even from the distance, you can hear the sound and feel the telepathic activity of literally thousands of kinsmen. You're outnumbered at least ten-to-one, but you're at such as a distance that you haven't been spotted yet.

You also detect additional Advanced Sentients.

>>6696026
Good call anon, better check out their digs before delivering the pizza, by pizza I mean 10 tons of slug ass kicking with bear hands

>>6695941
>>6695960
This. Also we need burrowers, to expand the hive farther than ever before.

>>6696075
Make more weapons from bones?

>>6696075
And you lot said we wouldnt need numbers!

>>6696075

Killing time? Killing time?
Killing time.

Burrow underneath and collapse the entire fucking place in on them. And THEN mop up what's left, with a psychic bombardment and general melee.

>>6696075
God damn. Get reinforcements. We can't let them change locations.

Once we're ready, have us and our other advanced intelligences work in unison on a mental attack.

We've got to Pearl Harbor them. Even if it only works on a few, it will even the field some.

>>6696075
Holy BALLS. These guys don't fuck around.

Retreat, attempt to cover our scent!

>>6696099
SEE?! I KNEW we should've been mating more!

>>6696075

This is sub-optimal. We are potentially in a lot of trouble.

>>6696036
Do we still have the secondary manipulator arms?

>>6696112
Yep, time to go, ITS SPAWNING TIME BABY LIGHT THE MOOD CANDLES

WE HAVE FIRE, GUYS!
WE HAVE FIRE!
WE! HAVE! FIRE!

>>6696107

Actually, they do. That's kind of the problem.

Holy shit.

I think the scientists made another batch of us and it got out, a much nastier, finished and possibly controlled version of us. I have no fucking clue what is going on.

Giant Acidic mind fuck slugs. I have no clue. Let's get back to our base and start beefing the fuck up, chances are they will come to us and for us, and we'll need to match them on our turf.

We need to return to base and build up our forces before an attack on THAT many foes...

We need to breed. We need to let everyone fuck EVERYONE AND ANYTHING!

You send for reinforcements as you sit there, watching. You continue your observation with Tank and Athlete while Scout makes its way back with the spawn that accompanied you.

You notice that they're loading objects into boxes - well, not only boxes, any containers that they could find and that they made. Hell, they're even stuffing the objects into sewn up stomaches and putting them all in line upon line.

The objects are egg sacs. Thousands upon thousands of egg sacs and they're preparing them for transportation.

They do not fuck about.

>>6696127
Do we even understand fire? If we learn enough about it we might be able to use it as our advantage.

Also, I suggest leaving. The Omniarch is an abominable opponent whom we shouldn't confront directly! We will need traps and subterfuge.

We must eliminate the leader and take his place.

we need to steal those eggsacks, and raise them as our own.

>>6696153
And fire.

>>6696150
We've got to destroy their spawn before they get transported, IT'S THE ONLY WAY.

Also expand aquatic operations. While those on land switch to a more aggressive war footing, we'll need our seafaring spawn pick up the production, bringing food and fashioning weapons and armor from the the creatures of the sea.

>>6696150
FFFFFFF!!!!

>>6696154
We must slaughter the abominations for what they have done to our child!

Also yeah, we might as well steal some of the eggsacks if we ever have the chance.

What do they look like?

>>6696150
We've got to end these fuckers now.

What do they look like? Pincers? Large mandibles? Spiked tails? Flyers?

We need to know what we're facing.

>>6696172
Or make sure that there isn't a hatchery somewhere.

>>6696074
>>6696028
Rule 34 on Swimmer.

it might not be that this breed of "slug" is mating like crazy, just infecting everything that's big enough to spawn its larva. see if there are pens with infected animals or something and get rid of the next generation.

>>6696150
Holy balls.

We need to attack them now before this gets out of hand.

Undermine the entire area. Now.
When it collapses, we set everything in the crater on fire.

DO IT QUICKLY BEFORE THEY ESCAPE, EVERYONE THAT ISN'T DIGGING NEEDS TO BE READY TO BURN THE ABOMINATIONS.

>>6696174
TELL THEM TO HARVEST CORAL, TONS OF IT, EVERYBODY NEEDS TO EAT CORAL. This will give our children stronger natural armor, and an increased breeding rate.

>>6696212
It may take too long to tunnel. Burn it all. If they do not fuck about, neither will we.

GODDAMN WHY HAVENT WE RETURNED TO BASE YET!

WE NEED MORE SPAWN!

WE NEED THOUSANDS MORE SPAWN!

FUCK AND SPAWN!
FUCKANDSPAWN!

Blitz Krieg. Kill the ones loading. Destroy the eggs and take just a few sacs for ourselves then GTFO. Don't go back to the hive just after, wait someplace in ambush for their hunting party to come and murder them, THEN go back to the hive and fuck like bunnies.

>>6696219
OH FUCK, CORAL.

Except it looks like we're in the pacific northwest, where Coral doesn't exactly exist.

>>6696235
I'm not so sure we really want the egg sacs. They're probably tainted.

I favored retreat and powering up before, but FFFFFFFFFF-
We can't let them get away like this. We need to plan a lightning strike on those eggsacks and take down as many of these things as we can. We're going to have to pull back somehow though, we can't get stuck in against these numbers unless their lower ranked spawn are really mindraped drones, which should make them less effective.

>>6696235
If we insist on staying and attacking right now then I vote we do it like THIS. Fire tactics may be a bad idea in a swamp.

This is starting to look a lot like Imperial Guard vs. Tyranids...

We, the prophets of Slug-Hugoth, being Guard, of course.

>>6696179
Here's the creatures you spot:
- Eight foot long finslugs.
- Strange, jelly-like flowery masses with muscular tentacles. approximately two feet in diameter.
- What look like spiders, but instead of legs, they've got wings. Their wing span is two foot long.
- Three foot long chitinous snakes.
- Three foot tall human doppelgangers.

>>6696242
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. We NEED coral, it is absoFUCKINGlutely vital to our survival.

>>6696176
Quick evolve RPharpoon tounges, take out the trucks, retreat

If we attack now:

Our best option is a combined psychic assault. That's our best chance at lowering the enemy's numbers as much as possible.

It has to be a surprise. Real Pearl Harbor style.

kill all of them
have children bring fire

THIS ENDS TO-FUCKING-DAY

>>6696219
That is a fucking awesome idea!
>>6696233
No time fore that- the Enemy is getting away!

>>6696267
These guys are not subtle.

>>6696235
We have no idea how fast these things are or even if they have harpoons too.

I don't think there's anything we can do without risking it all at this point. They're rather far from the coast at least, so I think we should begin a mass-breeding program and prepare for a war. Mass-breeding in the sea is probably for the best because we'll have next to no competition.

Also, do they actually have vehicles already? Or are they going to move them by hand? I think we'll need Guerilla warfare.

Stay out of their reach. Undermine everything they stand on. Have them fall into a massive hole, with earth and HOUSE falling on top of them as well.

And then, with many crushed, most pinned, and all confused as all-fuck, we set them on fire from outside their reach around the rim of their hole.

None survive.

>>6696267
EIGHT FUCKING FEET?
THE FUCK?!

>>6696233
we are behind on an exponential curve, this isn't something to be solved by numbers alone, we need area-of-effect options.

>>6696279
Also, SURROUND THEM FROM ALL SIDES.

>>6696295
Eight feet, but they're finslugs, barely a step up from what we started as.

>>6696295
Eight feet. Complete and absolute focus on size and complete ignorance of everything else. Growth, growth, growth. These mothers are huge.

So, actions:
- Try and come up with a plan to attack
- Retreat and breed

>>6696227
SCORCHED EARTH,
VILE CORPSES!
TODAY: WE GO TO WAR,
ENIMIES: NEVERMORE!
SLUL-HAGGOTH -
WITH US ALWAYS,
OUR WRATH WILL
MAKE THEM PAY.

Seriously. We can take these guys. Fighting them now is a huge advantage they would not expect. Destroy this batch of eggs. Kill this squad of goons.

We have more to gain then to loose right here. They don't see it coming they are arrogant and stupid and brash.

Kill this group. We can do it. And it will tell us what we are up against and who has the greater mettle.

>>6696311
We need a plan of attack.

>>6696311
I vote for "Blitz Krieg. Kill the ones loading. Destroy the eggs and take just a few sacs for ourselves then GTFO. Don't go back to the hive just after, wait someplace in ambush for their hunting party to come and murder them, THEN go back to the hive and fuck like bunnies."

>>6696308
Ok, Sound the retreat, Vengeance is a slow poison, we will have time to enact upon it later, FLYER YOUR DEATH IS NOT IN VAIN!!!!!!!!

It is very important that we are NOT seen, a direct attack right now is Suicide

>>6696267

The tentacle things seem to be the primary fighters.

It's a battle between Zerg and Tyranids

>>6696314
THIS DAY MEN WILL DIE
GLORY AND FAME BLOOD IS OUR NAME
SOULS FULL OF THUNDER HEARTS OF STEEL
KILLERS OF MEN A WARRIOR’S FRIEND
SWORN TO AVENGE OUR FALLEN BROTHERS
SONS OF SLUL-HOGGOTH TODAY WE SHALL DIE
OPEN VALHALLA’S DOOR
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
WITH TUSKS IN THE WIND
HAIL GODS OF WAR!

>>6696311
Breeding isn't an option. It would take weeks. But then, they'll outnumber us 100 to 1 and will have spread if they haven't already.

We need to do this now.

Surround them, we can't let anyone escape. Then combined psychic brain frying attack. Then moving in, using range. Then finally melee.

Psionic attacks should be maintained for the entire assault. A few of the more mentally strong/physically weak should focus on that. If any that survive the initial psychic attack are distracted by physical fighting, a second mental attack may break them.

WE CAN FUCKING TAKE THEM
THEY CHOSE DUMBASS EVOLUTIONS INCAPABLE OF FIGHTING BACK BY ANY REAL MEANS
FINSLUGS-BIG RUBBERY WORTHLESS PUKE CANNONS THATS IT
nonHUMAN-WEAK PHSICLY
SNAKES- NO FUCKING LIMBS SO CAN ONLY ATTACK ONE at A TIME
LEGLESSFLYSPIDERS-ONE MOUTH IS THEIR ENTIRE DEFENCE
MUSCLE ANEMONIES- MY ONLY CONCERN BECAUSE WTF IS THAT

NOT ONLY CAN WE AND WILL WE DEFEAT THEM
WE WILL DO IT EASILY

running and breeding would be retarded but so would attacking them without gathering the entire brood first

>>6696346
Which one are we?

Scout arrives with reinforcements.

You've got Slug Guy, Scout, 15 Slugspawn, 21 Shmecklings, 15 Swimspawn, 15 Tankspawn and 210 Speedspawn. The last two types are only half-grown, however.

You're still out-numbered ten-to-one, you know, looking at the size of this hive.

durr hurr

>>6696363
We need to develop our psychic potential more beyond telepathy.

>>6696311
Options are:
Blitzkrieg them, forget stealing eggs they ain't good to us.
Hit them as hard as we can with everything combat worthy.
Hit them with just mind blasts, pull back, ambush.
Hit them with just mind blasts.

Also, important question:
They are obviously packing eggsacks for transport do we see any sign of what is going to be used to transport? This seems a sure sign of higher involvement, I don't think they're fleeing us and they are packing a shipping eggs out to /someone/ or /somewhere/.

We need EVERYONE!

how many Advanced Sentients? we needs exact numbers, these are the primary threats.

Does the river connect to the swamp? Can we get our GIANT FISH here?

>>6696402
GOD DAMN

>>6696421
You detect three. None of them are within sight.

>>6696402
God damn that is sexy. Slul-hoggoth be with you, drawfag.

Hahahah... set up webs in the woods. Attack the eggs quickly and retreat back drawing the bastards into our webs!

Guys. If none of them looked fucked up like Flyer, it is possible that they didn't do it to him, and they could just be our lost offspring of our misslead son.

We could try being diplomatic, or even see if we can over power their minds.

wait why not wait for them to start transporting the eggs and then ambush their convoys? safer than a full-on assault and more effective than running like pussies. I'd rather not have the story end here because we thought we were hot shit and weren't.

Dig to the river, install a floodgate, flood them.

10 to 1 isnt that big of a deal if you take into account the fact we have suprise and cohesion on our side. I also approve of the hit and run tactics smash them with a big attack bleed them then withdraw and hit then in the flank with Tank and Athlete ,rinse and repeat

>>6696427
Yes.
You can request Fish and the Fishspawn to come.

>>6696452
Ooh! Do so!

>>6696399
Looking between them, I feel we have the advantage against their numbers. We have had our spawn train, drill, and spar. We are better organized, and our average spawn is very likely more intelligent.
We take 'em.
>>6696363
This plan is good, but have our advanced sentients be on guard for the enemies', for those will be our true challenge.

BIO how about specifics on those muscle anemony things?
because if those are not serious warriors i vote for a full on everything we have, rip their hearts out blitzkrieg

>>6696441
YES THIS!

Have our forces set up a webbed perimeter. Remain unnoticed.

Once the perimeter is as best set as we can, initiate a mass psychic attack, going for as many as we can. Once that is complete, have a few continue with the psychic attack, which should (A) distract the enemies enough for our forces to move into physical range for kills. And (B) possibly kill those that the physical attackers distract.

The web perimeter should be monitored for enemies trying to escape.

The night grows darker as you wait for further reinforcements.
Everyone had arrived.
EVERYONE.
Your entire hive is with you, waiting for your orders.

Man fuck. We'll never out breed them. Let's just do this now. If we are the stronger Slugs, we will become victor. If we are the weaker, we will be culled.

Demand to face their leader in single combat for control of the hive once more brought into one.

I GOT IT YOU GUYS. LET'S MAKE SIEGE WEAPONRY FROM THE FOREST. EVERYONE WHO HAS HARPOONS, START HELPING US TAKE DOWN TREES. WE NEED TO MAKE FLAMING TREE ARROW BALLISTAS TO SHOOT AT THE TRANSPORT VEHICLES.

>>6696452
we need to use ambushes and lightning strikes to win.
atrition = death for us.

>>6696441
If we had time, yeah. Set up traps, pits, and webs. Go in, strike hard, then pull back while running through the trapped course... to rendevous with our remaining brood to join the fight.

Still though, I don't think that's going to work on 10-1 odds, unless for some reason we are all armored and they are not. But I am not a fan of the chitinous snakes that are probably just going to crush Tank.

>>6696485
We can swing them like weapons.

Put up some basic web defenses. Wait for them to make a move before going all-out.

If we are going to strike we have to specifically target the advanced sentients.

Once they are eliminated there is possibility the remaining Omniarch brood will either go nuts or submit to our Psy.

Keep it together, we make sure we have some breeders safe back at the hive and in the water so our species lives on.

For death or glory in the name of our slug god we should do this now.

>>6696480
Ooooooh this.

IT'S LAST STAND TIME! ALL OR NOTHING! DO OR DIE! SINK OR SWIM! PAPER OR PLASTIC!

Slugguy and scout go for the eggs, they stick to attacking the targets that can't defend themselves.

Slugspawn and athlete are with us. We go for the human doppelgangers
The shmecklings, half the speedspawn, and swimspawn take the wingspiders.
Tank and 80 tankspawn go for the the tentacled horrors, the major combatants.
The rest of the tankspawn and speedspawn go for the snakes and 8 foot slugs.

AS SOON AS EACH FORCE IS DOMINATED, REDEPLOY IMMEDIATELY TO WHATEVER'S IN THE WORST SPOT.

KILL THEM!

ALL OF THEM!

NOW!

SLIME FOR THE SLIME GOD
GOEY PROTOSKULLS FOR THE PROTOSKULL THRONE!

>>6696500
You begin to craft various web defenses, as well as nets as so on. You craft all sorts of tripwires and various different mechanisms to slow down your opponents.

As for waiting for them to make a move, they're currently waiting. The eggs have been packed and they're waiting for something.

>>6696478
And thus the plan is refined further. Webtrench in, possibly add in some dirt trenches as well, bring the enemy to their deaths.

Save Fishspawn for a surprise and to deal with any aquatic threats.

>>6696523
making an assumption there on "major combatants"... i fear the snakes more.

>>6696540
Either they know we're here, or THEY TOO HAVE REINFORCEMENTS.

>>6696523
We don't need to attack the eggs, they aren't going to be attacking us.

We can destroy/convert them later if we want.

they wait for us
we hold ground and continue booby traping everything!

>>6696503
>>6696540
We need to kill the Advanced sentients. If we can kill all of them, that would be ideal. They might be the reason that they haven't begun moving the eggsacks yet!

Just in case, we should send Swimmer off to the Ocean to breed like crazy. She's probably useless outside of water anyways, so we might as well have a contingency.

Get in there, hit and run, sow confusion and chaos. Coordinate attacks on opposite sides, kill or injure a few then fall back as another group of tank and speedspawn hit from somewhere else. Keep the heavy hitters like Tank, Athlete and ourselves in reserves for when the advanced minds show up or if any particular strikeforce runs into something unexpected.

>>6696548
I assume they're waiting for their leader(s).

Hold ground, continue making webtraps. When preparations are done, should we:
A) remain in a cohesive force, and do a spear point with the strongest
B) have each of the strongest separate, and kill them as they exit the building

I recommend aggressive projectile web use on the most clustered of the foes -- harpoon the snakes and humans if you can.
The large jelly ones should be second targets for harpooning. Any fliers engage their fliers, and MINDBLAST as much and as many as you can. Or Lightning, that could work too.

Right. Make your opinions clear, please.
HOLD GROUND
OR
ATTACK

They are waiting for who or what that is coming for those eggs they packed up so nice for them.
Do we want to wait for them to get here, or hit these guys first?

We need to focus our attacks on whatever of their creatures shows the most combat efficiency (snakes or anenomes probably, maybe humanoids) but ourself, athlete and tank need to take down those advanced intelligences.

We need a strike force, the advanced sentients have to be the main target.

>>6696584

I say wait until we see what they are waiting for. Once that is determined, we kill them all.

>>6696584
ATTACK

>>6696584
Attack, B.

>>6696584
Attack. Use the strategies listed.

Something bad will happen, but it will happen regardless.

We need first strike.

>>6696599

Strike force can be ourselves, tank, athlete, and a few of the strongest tankspawn. Keep scout moving and relaying information as quickly as possible.

I say once our traps our laid. We bring a small force out and call out a challenge to speak to their leader. Tell them that they can explain what they have done and the risks they have taken.

See if they are responsible for flyer. If this is all true or if they deem themselves the leaders over us. We destroy them.

But we SHOULD NOT kill them without speaking with them first. You NEVER KNOW. Our true enemy could be the humans, and these guys don't seem to be doing a bad job.

>>6696584
>>6696588
We attack as soon as whoever is transporting the eggs arrives. It will catch them all by surprise(hopefully). Is there any way to not give off a big telepathic signature in case we're detected prior to our attack?

>>6696619
THISTHISTHISTHISTHISSTHISSHISSSSSS

They might all be gestating?

I say keep prepping, perhaps ready logs to fall across any roads leading out.
We not only want these guys down, we want those responsible.

We have to ID the advanced sentients and set up a kill order.

>>6696619
ATTACK NOW!
CATCH DURING GESTATION!
???
PROFIT!

All in favour of announcing presence and challenging their leader?

>>6696673
Aye.

If they charge into us we fight, then fall back into the rest of our brood and our traps.

>>6696619

>>6696673
DO EET

>>6696673
ATTACK.

>>6696673
Aye

>>6696673
No. They do not show respect for their kin (if we can truly be called related to that awful mess), so we will not show honor nor mercy to them.

>>6696673
Don't make it an outright challenge, but make it sound Authoritive.

>>6696673
I would be if someone would come up with a safer way to go about it than just waltzing into the middle of the hive with an honor guard.

>>6696673
Nay!
Surprise attack! Rush them! The early slug catches the DIRTYFUCKINGABOMINATION!

>>6696673
YA BIOTCH, CMON MONO E MONO

>>6696643
Ooo, log roll, what's the terrain like? are we uphill?

NO!

Surprise attack.

>>6696673
"Omniarch, show yourself. I challenge you for command of your hive. IN THE NAME OF SLUL-HOGGOTH, REVEAL YOUR FACE. Or are you a coward?"

yea, but what happens if they just decide to kill us off? we need better options.

No duel, just hit them hard and fast.

Well, okay then.

You step forward before your distant relatives.

"In the name of Slul-Huggoth, I was to speak with the one who leads you."
There is a short burst of telepathic laughter hardwired into their minds. This concept seems idiotic.
"Our level of sapience is not allowed to intermingle with theirs unless recieving orders. You do not talk to the Omniarch. The Omniarch talks to you. But you will wait here for the Omniarch to arrive."

A large group of them begin to encircle you, after you've stepped forward and after that, you wait for the Omniarch to arrive.

Several minute pass. Quarter of an hour, then half an hour. Then it happens. You feel a sudden, unnatural surge of fear rush through your body as someone or something arrives, nearby. This is not an advanced sentient. This is like nothing that you have ever encountered anymore. It is bizarre and it is twisted - and it's coming closer towards you.

Reaction?

>>6696767
STAND. We will not be threatened by this.

>>6696767
Prepare the tusk-spears.

"NO MERCY, NO REMORSE! FOR THE FALLEN AND SLUL-HUGGOTH-

"ATTAAAAACK!"

>>6696767
Wooooah wait... the SECOND they say no we call for the rest of our hordes to attack!

>>6696767
Protect our mind, wait for this thing to show itself.

>>6696786
This.

>>6696767

You honorfags are going to get us wiped out.

>>6696767
>"Our level of sapience is not allowed to intermingle with theirs unless recieving orders. You do not talk to the Omniarch. The Omniarch talks to you. But you will wait here for the Omniarch to arrive."

Well now we know that the Omniarch is a pretty shitty leader.

>>6696767
Fight the fear. Fill our troops with feelings of Rage and Pride to help them fight theirs.

AND ATTAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

>>6696767
Wait and prepare the tusk-spears... Should we be forced to go into battle, we should make sure to at least destroy the Omniarch with the entire hive!

>It is bizarre and it is twisted
"NAME YOURSELF FOUL MOCKERY, AND STAND BEFORE ME IN THE NAME OF SLUL-HUGGOTH."

laugh at it
that any such foul a creature would command respect must surly be a joke
then assume it is a general and demand to speak to the omniarch

You stand vigilant, even as the others tremble in fear and terror around you. Suddenly, they scream and yelp as something crashes into the ground. It's a gigantic snail shell, approximately seven feet in diameter, covered in various debris to stop the opening from being vulnerable. A genderless, neutral, synthetic voice pierces your mind.

"Grandfather."

>>6696767
what the hell man, railroading us into waiting for the enemy to gather reinforcements

>>6696817
Stay away from the opening.

"Child! What is this?"

Fuck being afraid. We are ONE beast. We mingle our minds and take care of our own we don't warp eachother and make slaves.

Our leader has reached down, given half his face, given his leg for the good of our brood, even healed our own from certain death! And Our god has rewarded him! Rewarded All of us! We can stand against him!

Ugh. I just wish Athlete would yell this or something. We've actually cared more about our kids and even forgiven the sons of the ones who've betrayed us.

For some evil Tyranid monster, we're a pretty good guy.

>>6696819
75% of people I questioned were for it, so I did it.

The fact I think it was an idiotic choice has nothing to do with it.

>>6696817
"Grandfather? You are not my child. You are the spawn of someone who was never truly my child. All I see here is filth."

>>6696817
Reply that it should show itself.

>>6696837
alright fair enough I'm sorry for taking out my rage on you

>>6696837
They said to announce our presence, nothing about WAITING for half an hour.

>>6696817
Oh this isn't too bad he called us grandfath...FUCK

>>6696836
Theres evil, then there is mighty, we are a mighty badass tyranid monster

>>6696837
It was closer to 50/50

>>6696844
hey now that's not nice

do not have us do something this mean and nasty

>>6696844
The shell shifts where it is into a better position.

"I might as well grant you what you came here for before I do as I wish with you. What is it that you want, grandfather?"

grandson.

i cant say im not immpressed you stayed true to our heritage atleast in image

>>6696872
"For you to suck my dick and die."

>>6696786
>>6696837
Yeah, but I'm fairly sure most of us would have favored hitting them hard after having our challenge rejected.

>>6696844
No reason to be so negative and start calling it filth.

It's obviously willing to speak to us as an equal or acknowledge we came first.

>>6696817
"....that's it, this is what our progeny, our enemy has become. You are the offspring of our first betrayer's bitch."

>>6696872
"Your head."
Can we fill our hordes with rage and hatred of the Omnarch and rush the fucker now?

Tell it, that there is two ways this can go down. If it is so smart it will figure it out. Bolster our men. We've got enough brain power to hang with this turd. We are the first. He owes us everything.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO FLYER YOU PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR SNAIL"?

to ask you if you have any idea how dangerous the humans are

HOLY FUCK!
STOP TALKING!
MAKE WITH THE KILL!
WHY DID WE WAIT HALF AN HOUR WITHOUT TRYING TO MAKE KILL!

No reason to mock it's heritage. Bigger question is /how/ did it get like this.
And I think it has telekinesis and can fly.
We are so boned.

I want to climb inside this bastards MIND!

Keep this battle a psychic one. Get right in there and start tearing away at the bits of its thoughts that let it remember how to do anything but DROOL AND DIE!

>>6696947
We're probably boned, yeah. We might as well try to bury the snail with our entire hive and massacre it.

New thread: >>6696963

>>6696957
Seconded.

>>6696872
WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BABY! WHAT DID YOU DO TO FLYER ;_;

Just keep our brains protected, and tell him we can exist side by side then, and claim this place for all our kind.

Then as we are walking away, if It lets us go, turn and harpoon the shell, we all leap on it and tear it to bits, get inside and feast. Keep yelling hate in our mind as we do it. Hate for the weakling hiding in his shell.

hate for the manipulator treating his own kind like tools.

ok, we have a problem.
these guys have an exponential growth curve on us, we are outnumbered 10 to 1, we started with a situation that had a tenuous chance of any sort of success overcoming with direct action and would only grow exponentially worse with inaction.we are currently facing something that if described correctly is our physical and mental superior (how the hell did that happen? has he somehow snuck in a half dozen gestations?). We can either surrender, which is a betrayal of everything we have worked for or we can challenge him and call for divine aid, which honestly is the only chance we have of winning this.
