Morning All,
I had the idea some time ago now to create a Bio-Mechanical Hive Fleet but was lost for justification not too far outside Fluff. The Subject came up earlier on today and we have been discussing the idea. So far so good, but i wanted to expand the purview of the discussion so that more of you can suggest ideas and/or comment on the ideas i/we have already.
Names in Brackets will be there to credit the Member who proposed an idea to me.
Hive Fleet Giger
Failing Alpha Fleet
Attacks a SM Home World and loses
Very little left in the way of Resources/Biomass
Out in the Middle of Nowhere
Hive Mind chooses to use them for Bio-Mechanical experimenting with combining Tyranid Bioforms with the resilience of Adamantium, plasteel and ceramite
Sent to an abandoned Forge World (Aramoro)
Adamantium for Tyrants/Warriors, Plasteel for Termagant/Hormagaunts, Ceramite for everything inbetween.
With too little biomass left after the battle, it is forced to use other means. So it resorts to controlling the machinery. (Serpion)
the Norn Queen/Hive Ships could grow the organic 'around' the metal parts, essentially fusing them together as they would with bone or their weapons.
Notes:
I'd prefer NO outside influence on this, i would like them to be solely a Tyranid creation.
Models will most likely be based on WarJacks.
Thats it so far methinks. I'll update as we go.
