THE GREAT DEVOURER - The Imperium's Greatest Threat: The TYRANIDS - Warhammer 40,000 Lore Overview

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ก.ค. 2024
- The Tyranids are a swarming species whose main purpose is to consume any and all organic stuff they come across, afterwards utilizing the genetic material of their prey to further their own evolution and adaptation. This makes them a formidable and challenging adversary, one that can adapt quickly to new situations. The Great Devourer is the apex predator of the galaxy, and everything from the smallest form of life to the most developed interstellar civilization is little more than a meal to it. There can be no negotiations with the Tyranids, they are here to consume it all.

This video goes through a long overview of the Tyranids. It contains three previously released episodes (The Discovery Of The Tyranids, The Horrific Stages of a Tyranid Invasion & The Hive Mind) for those who have missed some of the episodes or who simply want to take all the lore in one sitting. Ideal for painting sessions, a commute and so on. Check out the video description for timings on the different Chapters and more information. Hope you enjoy the content my friends!
Great Job my Brother!! Simply amazing work!!!!! Never stop doing the Hive Minds work!!!
Serious question....why isn't the Imperium just gassing the hell out of them?...they are bugs after all.
Orkin/Raid bug bombs should take care of it. Humans can wear gas masks.."they" don't/can't... really seems like a HUGE plot hole...
I bet you can make a story of how a small army of Empire soldiers got screw over by an army of animals in place of the wood elves.
Thank u my friend for your hard work! Its awesome
We Tyranid are not a threat.
We are the mercy upon the suffering, the bleakness that is existence, the revenge upon the corrupt and indoctrinating.
We are the good guys!!!
Why, oh why can't you see this?
*cries*
:P
Never played any tabletops but the sheer love that Warhammer fans have has made me a fan of the lore in and of itself. WAGGH
what das WAGGH stand for ?
@@GabbaGandalf420It's the Orks warcry, since they cannot say"war"
Same.
Same. Well, I’ve played one game. But the lore is first rate.
Same here
Better than 90% of the movies I have seen in last two years
The production value of these videos always impress me
I would love to see a Tyranid attack on a Planet as a full lenght Movie
@@gmuesfrucht9499 stuff like that makes me rly exited about AI
I legit thought that I was watching a documentary on the Discovery channel for a moment, I'm not kidding. First time coming across this channel, color me impressed! I'm subbing obviously!
@@GabbaGandalf420I'm pretty certain that's what this is. At least the narration.
Tyranids: "Hey kids! Wanna see a dead body?!"
Imperium: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Lmfao 🤣 🤣 🤣
💀
inquisitor kryptman"STOP SCREAMING"!!!! (Dog wimpers)!!!!!!
The Tyranids really enjoy their enthusiastic walk into the Milky Way galaxy.
plenty of snacks along the way!
"This galaxy has a nice ring to it, milky way"
-Tyranids probably
@@gamechanger8908 If you give a ‘nid a galaxy of milk, it’s going to want a cookie
- Genestealer Bedtime story probably
"Bitch we eat people"
@FrankAaron so you know "cookie' is the same as beaver?
I can't wait to see how the sheer scale of a Tyranid invasion is shown in Space Marine 2.
I love these lovecraftian bugs, the macragge video got me into this channel and i have to say i love these lore videos
The most dangerous thing about the Tyranids isn't their overwhelming numbers, terrifyingly powerful bioforms or sheer ferocity.
It's the fact they don't underestimate an enemy no matter how small they are.
The Tyranids will spend months, years, decades or centuries understanding everything they can for the most efficient invasion.
Hence why the war against the Orks or any other suprise attacks they weren't able to delicately prepare for are the most effective at causing damage to them.
Good point. A lot of people seem to forget this aspect of them.
orks are the perfect enemy for them, bio diverse and literally spawn in many numbers, all you can eat buffet for them
Da boyz iz best eva.
Watched these as they went live, of course I'm going to watch this again
The true MVP 👊! Thanks a lot my friend! Glad you are enjoying the content.
"Hey guys! Anyone hungry today? Cause we sure are!"
Hive Mind, aka ICANHASGALAXY?
Khorne: “ok… who the actual f@$k was that?”
Last Old One is making vengence
all of those trillion deaths and million worlds destroyed because a single loyal Iron Warrior accidentally ring the dinner bell while trying to save his Imperial Fist bro....
Bros before hoes. I hope they were not the pair from the War of the Beast?
rung* everyone is so bad at english now and thats sad
rang. A rung is a step on a ladder.
😂 excellent.
Thanks Dantioch!
Also
Wrong.
Rang is the past tense of ring, as in to ring somebody on the phone.
Sorry but I couldn’t resist.
Lastly, @justinmagee2203, I’d not be drawing attention to people’s english skills if I was you.
Absolutely love this. I usually listen to your videos audio only so thank you for such high quality production. We're extremely lucky to enjoy such content for free.
Top notch, love the voiceover setup for this one. Narrator and in lore voice seperate makes it a lot more immersive!
I must've read / listened to the story of the first Great Tyrannic War a dozen or so times by now, and I look forward to a dozen more. Thank you for producing this
I think the theory of the Tyranids being designed as weapons makes more sense when you think of how powerful and smart the hive mind is but how it also seems so ignorant or just limited by something. Beyond plot armor or warp magic, there's no reason why the Tyranids would not have knowledge or access to fusion technology. Fusion tech would allow the bugs to create anything they needed from hydrogen. They could literally consume all matter in the universe and not just the extremely small percentage of organic matter in it. Think of how many navigators the bugs have eaten, and yet they can't create their own Tyranid navigators to give them a huge advantage the Imperium and others have over them. It's almost like a greater power didn't want them to be to OP...or just plot armor.
Tyranids have no conception of technology at all. The Hive Mind can grasp cause:effect but it doesn't understand any form of science at all. It does not investigate or conduct research. Fusion reactions or anything even approaching it are utterly alien to the tyranids. It's like asking why Neanderthals didn't just use fusion reactors to keep their species going.
they already made them impossible to beat in the long run. I mean, if the setting wants to do an end-times they can just make them smarter.
but if youre one of the "this is only a scouting party" types, which most tyranid fans are, the real tyranids wont be here for a while, and these are a second wave of low-grade probes.
Damn.😮.I have seen countless so called lore ..but this feels like a proper Netflix documentary 😮👏👏👏.
Ps .You should have 1mil+
By far the greatest narration of impending doom ever!!
Standing ovation!!!!
Nicely done!! Three Cheers!!!
This was a fascinating audio story with splendid narration. Well done, cheers!
The presentation and production of this video is top notch. You deserve more subs. Take my energy.
The BEST tyranid video on all of TH-cam. Should be at top of every lore playlist
Inquisitor Kryptman once tried to have Orks and Tyranids take each other out in a "Let's You And Him Fight!" gambit.
It didn't work out.
inquisitor kryptman made an huge oopsie woopsie moment
Could you point me to where i can read about this?
@@TheRealEvilSink black library books at your local gw shop or audible
It's in the codex book for space Marines
Production value through the roof. Thank you for this video
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!! 🙌
no matter how many times i hear this story and never gets old. great job man!
Excellent video all around.
Voice, story, and visuals all on point.
🫡
Subscribed!
love the channel man ! keep ! up
OMG, this video was incredible done.
Please keep up the good videos.
great narration and very nicely choosen visuals =D
I must say 2 hours have never passed quicker for me in my life. This is so awsome man!
This was my workout background noise in my earbuds tonight. Fuckin solid background music dude, so easy to tune into it and flow while also listening to the fantastic lore dive. Love the production value.
28:28 This is one of the very coolest works of W40k art I've ever seen. No color and yet you look closely and it's a snapshot of a dozen or more battles unfolding. Very cool, I want a wall sized poster!
This channel is legendary. Amazing work
This is top tier work!
Not sure how I never found this channel before.. subscribed! This is excellent!
Truly the Best video on nids! Loving it!
The only thing to ever outnumber the Tyranids should be ur subscriber count. The Quality of this video is absoluetly unreal. Great fucking job i had a blast watching it 😮
Rule number one for a catachan regiment. Never acknolwedge orders to fight outside of the a jungle or forest. Unless it is to defend Holy Terra. Or demand they verify their superior rank by showing that they have a longer knife than you.
This was amazingly well done
Absolutely brilliant work as always 💯
I find the genestealers the most deadly because without the hivemind the Tyranids go a bit berserk and could easily die but the genestealers are independent.
Ironically we may have possibly gotten a independent genestealer faction if the Infinite and Divine’s song corrupted their song.
Or it’s possible that they would either devote themselves to the deceiver or as to keeping the vault hidden.
Both of these could be very interesting.
Imagine the deceiver at the head of a genestealer cult.
Synapse bioforms and lictors can all behave intelligently without the Hive Mind's direction.
The most complete educational edition of lore on the tyranids. Totally enjoyable with great images of the tyranids many of the pictures I've never seen before with the special effects of a battle on a tragically innocent world being dismantled piece by peice from people to minerals and everything inbetwee. Thank you for this epic on the topic of the Hive Mind Tyranid nightmares!
Thanks for sharing this warhammer40k adventure! 😊🤪🤛💯%KNOCKOUT! 🙊🙉🙈
Thanks a lot for watching good sir! Glad you enjoyed this episode!😃🙌
Fantastic work. S tier channel!
This vid gets me hyped for saturday
Great content as usual man.
Fantastic video.
Thank you so much for your hard work
Love from Western Australia
Loved the video!
Outstanding video!!!
Tyranids: the unquantified conglomeration of vast ecosystems given a sentience , a terrible intelligence, and a singularly driven conscious volition that encompasses everything down to a genetic level.
Wow great video!!!
God damn! glad I stumbled upon this one!
One can see the sheer effort and work put to good use here!
subscribe. of Corse!
Just found these videos and hot damn good work 👍
Appreciate the background ambiance
Thanks for your work 🫡
Excelente! Parabéns!!!!!
Our favorite reasercher needs more anger and resolution in his voice, doesn't come out the way it truly should.
So is the Dominatrix no longer a thing? It was a giant synapse creature in Epic and a way of army building your swarm. A real fun way of making your army with hex’s containing units spreading out from them (of course you can have more than one). I guess the name Dominatrix is to spicy for GW nowadays. The Tyranid army book for Epic from the 90’s s a fun read. I’ll still use a kit bashed Dominatix as a Swarmlord for 40K. I like the harder core elements of early 40K. More informative, interesting and mysterious world building.
Imagine being at your post on this planet and all of a sudden all the auto turrets and laz cannons open up in all their fury
Wow, what amazing story 😊
These hive fleets are engineering marvels. My good , the tyrannids are great engineers
FIRST, LONG LIVE THE GOD EMPEROR.
Subscribed after the first minute and that never happens to me, not ever. I'm not even a huge Warhammer 40k type of guy, (I only mean in the gamer sense, I do love the lore) but I am a conissure of geek culture and I am impressed. Nicely done with the science channel documentary style, it's so corny but it works quite well here I must say. Very meta choice on that one honestly. Mind blown, all I have to say!
Thanks a lot! I must say that I have indeed been inspired by numerous documentaries that I used to watch when I was younger. Thanks for your words 😃👌🏻
Good job
That was an impressive presentation. During the consumption phase of a Tyranid incursion, @Luetin09 notes, the Rippers that gorge themselves on biomass do not often disgorge their comtents into digestive pools, electing instead to hurl their own bodies into the acid soup to be reabsorbed in the ships of the awaiting Hive Fleet.
Splendid presentation Bravo! Now get me a gun !
Liked and subbed
Is this gonna be a straight up fight sir or another bug hunt?
Love the video. My favorite race
Masterful
Loved it!😂🔥🤟
What's the song playing in 45:10 ?
As always your productions are top notch, so immersive.
vids like this got me into 40k world and i dont even play the game lol
Wicked awesome
Thank you
Love it.
The reason the Tyranids are the most powerful faction is because they get the most passes on the laws of nature.
It's easy to imagine this very video being shown in the Schola Progenum.
The Mechanicus Magos on Tyran Primus, must‘ve been crunchy to eat for the Nids with all em metal parts.
Woo! Long vid!
thanks
I love that these sound like Shark week videos lol
The hive mind isn't one being, it is the synaptic connection of the largest concentration of tyranids
Tyranids entering the Milky Way Galaxy is very much akin to walking into an "All-You-Can-Eat" buffet.
Is this a re-upload? I swear I've watched this before
Funny thing is that even if you kill a bunch of their troops, they just throw them into the biomass pool and make more. They do the same to their living troops when they leave a planet after devouring everything. I used to play this army before I found how fun it is to play orks though. Tyranyds sound powerful and unstoppable in the lore, but not as fun and unstoppable while playing.
Deadliest I’d have to say a lictor hell just one alone can bring down a world before the hive fleet gets in system
Everything is edible
if i had a quarter for every psyker who had foresight and could see future outcomes, i'd have at least 5 quarters
God I love nids man, they are so cool
The answer is simple - it wants to consume the Emperor
This reminds me of the History Channel for some reason
The old ones finally perfected thier genetically engineered weapons. They will return to reclaim thier Galaxy
I have always been a big fan of Space Hulk. So I am partial to Broodlords and Genestealers.
More 40k! Also I want to see AoS get some love it's awesome these days everyone be sleeping on it
I really want to know how a mostly reptilian and insectiod species developed sophisticated space travel yet alone complex engineering. Who is designing and building these ships? Who is navigating?
I feel like the only faction that could possibly stand a chance against the Nids are the Necron. They are completely inorganic and litteraly have the power to destroy entire systems just by blinking of a galactic map with their finger.
Great night time story 🤷🏽♀️👏🏽
You know. Instead of making fire breaks I wonder if just rigging it up so the planets would be destroyed when the hive fleet is invading the planet. So take their food AND a good chunk of their current biomass
Yes, this has actually been described as a good strategy, but it comes with its complications, the main one would be having an actual ship able to destroy the planet at that precise time. By that stage when the planet is being consumed, thousands of Tyranid bio ships are also on orbit. threatening any that would come close. Also, losing an entire planet is a tremendous loss in itself.
I think it was one of the empowered ca'tan that stole the necron souls and somehow escaped then created the tyranids to gain more power by consuming more souls
Warhammer 40k has such a massive lore,i am actually surprised there are no movies,tv shows,cartoons...I would like to see proper ARPG game (not Inquisitor) with a lot of money and thought put into it or even 40k MMO with good graphic ,super customizable character/armor and tons of stuff to do.
