No. They're too busy getting raped (literally) by Orks.

@Corpses: They probably wouldn't want the Tyranids getting their hands on some shapeshifting super powerful Thexians.

On the other hand, that would open up a world of cool stuff. Just imagine shapeshifting Carnifexes pretending to be tanks.

Why, we might even see Carnifex Prime "Fex-o-bots! Assemble!"

(I vote that someone takes this concept to 4chan's /tg/ board and starts a meme of tanks that transform into unyuufexes)

Someone mentioned zombie tau earlier. Wasn't that when the necrons gave a staff to one of the Tau generals and started enslaving them to the C'Tan or something like that?

Two of the things that freak me out are unknown enormous creatures in the deep and "void whales" that live in the darkness between galaxies. I just have this irrational fear of being on a ship or submarine or spaceship some day and something larger than I can ever see swallows us. I bet if I saw a shrink she would tell me it has something to do with my parents swallowing my dreams or some bs and give me xanax. BUT XANAX DOESNT SAVE YOU FROM THE VOID WHALES ! ahhhhhh!

Would you by chance be referring to the Ork who led his Waaaagh! into the Warp itself in search of enemies? Because he was ridiculously hardcore. Didn't it say he completely cleaned out about a dozen of daemon worlds?

i believe he was referencing a moby dick parody with void whales as the titular whale and an ork captain as the captain from the book.

The Deth Spectres have a Star Fortress over the Goul stars so it must be some crazy threat to the Imperium Like Necrons as mentioned earlier.

Then There are the 2 missing legions and Primarchs from the pre-heresy days that could have turned traitor and are building strength.

"Smite now the scions of the Witch!
Grant us the strength to pierce their unclean flesh!
To cover their fields with the pale form of the blasphemous dead!
To drown the thunder of guns with the shriek of their dying!
To lay waste to their citadels with hurricanes of fire!
To wring the hearts of their kin with unavailing grief!
To send them into the waste of their desolate land in rags and hunger, broken in spirit, worn with travail and begging for the refuge of the grave.
We ask it, in the spirit of wrath, O Master of Mankind!"

Alright, I retract my harsh statement. And as for the 2 missing legions and Primarchs... Those are the two most intriguing pieces of fluff in the 40k universe, in my opinion. I guess Games Workshop did their job well.

But anyway, where's everyone getting their info on the Ghoul Stars? I'd dearly love to read some fluff on them. Any books I can find?

Look in Helbrecht's page in the Black Templars codex, page 44.

Lexicanum wrote:On the death of High Marshal Kordhel at the hands of a chaos champion, Helbrecht was chosen unanimously by all of the Marshals in 989.M41 after the subjugation of the Xenarchs of the Sigilare Nebula. He was ritually presented with the Sword of the High Marshals and immediately led a crusade against the Cythor Fiends in the Ghoul Stars. After 8 years of securing outlying system, Helbrecht moved on to the homeworlds of the Fiends, only to find them empty. The crusade was cut short when a request for aid came from Armageddon. Ghazghkull Thraka had returned and the Black Templars channelled their energies into stopping one of the greatest Waaagh!s.


If I recall correctly, the Cythor Fiends were a species of terrifying, man-sized bat-creatures that flew around on their wings and used weapons that fired spikes. I don't remember where I read this though, so don't quote me on it.
