@@ProtomanButCallMeBlues Leviathan is the biggest fleet, its so bloody big its attacking the galaxy from every direction, its probably the biggest tyranid threat the galaxy currently faces for that reason alone. But theres no evidence its the last Tyranid hivefleet, There could be even more of the buggers out there.

[@ProtomanButCallMeBlues]

@Whitewall GW is a bit inconsistent when determining Hive Fleets, which has hurt it. If you go off Behemoth, it was a murdering machine out of the door, meanwhile Kraken has been "evolving" where it was getting slapped around when it was still deploying zoats, which it has since stopped. Begs the question if Behemoth should've been nigh unstoppable. Might just be soft retcons to let the Hive Fleets settle more.

[@badaoe3stratsonly130]

This is true. But the Tyrranids are also being tied down by Orks. And due to the constant fighting Orks are on the brink of reaching Krork status. Also the threat of the Tyranids is forcing the Silent king to unite a Lions share of the the Necrons under his control. With more tomb worlds waking up year after year. So the Situation against the tyranids is far from hopeless as the Tyranids aren't going to steam roll the galaxy with Orks and Necrons rising to the occasion. Though the Corollary of that is, of course, that the threat of the Tyrranids is two fold. As their very presence is making the two most dangerous Xenos races from the Milky way more dangerous. Which could prove to be the death knell of the imperium in the end.

The Tyrannids are so terrifying because even Space marines struggle against the big ones.

Those big tyrranids were birthed maybe a few weeks ago specifically to fight space marines.

Ork elite take weeks... just take a rokkit launcher and pratice!

Did you see how that one tyranid effortlessly tore apart a terminator marine? Those suits are more durable than stand tanks found in the imperial guard, and the marines who are allowed to wear those suits are always the most elite and most veteran marines of the chapter. and yet the tyranid just grabbed him and ripped him in half like he was wet toilet paper.

[@YuriDSC]

The scary thing about tyrannids is that they basically have no canon limit, they can be as powerful or as weak as the author needs them to be. The only actually scary thing about them, is that you don't know how big of a problem they are and if they are the biggest problem in the galactic sea or there is an even bigger fish out there.

@@jmlaw8888 They're trying to be dramatic, but they are writing themselves into a box of irrelevancy and power creep. They could have done a much better job by advertising both the imperial guard and the mechanicus struggling to fight the bugs. At first it seems like they are pushing them back, and then the tide changes and they're getting overwhelmed. The space marine reinforcements come in, and again it looks like the tide is changing. Maybe the preachers are right. The space marines easily demolish the lower level forms. The tyranids send in their higher level forms, and the space marines deploy, terminators and librarians, which leads to the tyranids deploying many zoanthropes and broodlords. The librarian has an epic psychic struggle before succumbing, and the terminators read bloody havoc before being destroyed. That'll be so much better than treating space marines like guardsman and making their armor absolutely utterly pointless, and taking away 95% of their speed.

I've always felt bad for Guilliman. He's got so much on his shoulders as a single primarch (now he has some help thank fukc). He's trying to hold the empire together while everything in the galaxy is trying to stop him, having to deal with not only the external threats to mankind and the Imperium, but also the internal hurdles. I worry for him, that this massive burden will slowly wear him down, that chaos might get but a sliver of influence in that fraction of a moment where he loses his some of resolve and wreak havoc. Thankfully he has a brother, The Lion, he can sorta leave military aspects to him while he super glues, duct tape and ties the Imperium into better working order.

Tyranid invasions in the past are honestly the most deadly when it comes to the Imperium. Even against foes like Orks, necrons, and traitors. Only chaos represents an equivalent threat. Tyranid hive fleets and even splinters have destroyed entire space marine chapters and sectors, numerous times. And it means nothing to the Tyranids. It takes centuries to make an Astartes. They have to pass trials as children, undergo modifications, survive as a scout, and then go further modifications. So much time and resources to make a veteran astartes. Tyranids literally birth warriors and if they’re killed they’re just reabsorbed as biomass and made again. Here’s the really scary part… lore pictures in the codexes and books show the true size of the hivefleets. The ones that have entered so far are scouts…. The true hivefleet is larger than the Galaxy itself…

As I speak these words, our forces engage the remnants of Leviathan. Reclaiming lost worlds, atoning for old shames. A crusade to cleanse the stars. Taking the fight to the enemy. We routed the Tyranids at Baal. We broke their hive fleet. Soon, their foulness will be but a memory. THAT is what the preachers say. Belief will not save us. Lies will not protect us. But it is our hope that will damn us. In the spires and the slums, our people sing of victory. Victory, as the galaxy burns. Victory, as the Imperium rots around us.
