    If tyranids evolve so rapidly, why arent they immune to bullets yet?
    >> Anonymous 08/30/11(Tue)06:53 No.16115824
    No answer? Looks like the Emperor wins again.

    there was a story about the tau having a hard time because the nids they where fighting did exactly that.

    The problem is that they make them selves immune to one gun at the expense of being vulnerable to other forms of attack.

    Tyranids are smart. But heavy knows the answer to this one.

    Same reason we still get hurt if we fall over. Kinetic energy isn't really something that you can become im-....

    also nids are capable of producing armour thats immune to practically anything but its just not worth putting on all the critters. Same reason the IG doesn't equip all its soldiers with terminator armour.

    Oh yeah, also how come everyone is afraid of the Tyranids when they have a horrible kill to death ratio?

    Or why most of their numbers are weak tiny creatures that can be killed by the most basic of weaponry?

    Not so scary are they, once you think about it.

    You know my friends, I believe its quite impossible to be afraid of the Tyranids. Are they not mindless, not capable of even providing the most basic thought?

    Or being 100% dependent on their "hivemind"? Sounds to me they're just a bunch of momma's boys, or should I say momma's bugs.

    So they're fat too? Lets add that to the list then.
    They're
    -Stupid
    -Fat
    -Can die
    -Not independent
    -Don't believe in the Emperor
    -Mostly weak and small
    -Not bulletproof

    Now honestly tell me, you don't think we could beat them easily?
    Because I sure do.

    Heres another fact. Did you know that all Tyranids don't have any training at all? Its true. The "Great Devourer" is made up of enemies that have no experience at all. Even their leaders too. They just release their soldiers onto the battlefield without even going through a briefing!

    Do you know what the Tyranid's cause is?

    'Genestealers' are kleptomanic little creatures. However, because they lack any sort of strength in their puny arms they are not actually able to carry any loot heavier than a human gene! When the Magos Biologis discovered this they gave the genestealers this mocking name, son that the whole Imperium might know of their weakness.

    Its been reported from a dozen skirmishes that all Tyranid leaders are afraid of dying! When threatened, a Tyranid leader will order any bug near him to form a living, moving wall to protect him! They're so afraid of dying, that they would sacrifice tens of thousands of their army just so they can survive.
    What cowards I say!

    What to know something else? The Tyranids have no strategy. It has never once been reported that the Tyranids have ever done any military strategy we all know.

    I heard from my cousin in the Magos Biologis that they're basically only ever a few days from starving to death, so if it takes them longer than they expected to find an edible planet, they die by the thousands.

    Isn't that a nice thought? Nids just dying where they stand?

    Can't we just be honest to them about what they're facing? Sure it might terrify them, but I think knowing what's at stake will serve them better than believing themselves to be up against mere flies.

    Because they absolutely don't care about losses. The tyranids have no concept of failure at all. They will devour the planet sooner or later - for them anything else is alien.
    Hence they don't care how much biomass they throw at you, since they will recover it all.

    And energy they get from sunlight.
