Tyranids. They've stripped a dozen galaxies already, whereas the rest of us are still in one


Tyranids? They aren't an empire, they're a GIGANTORMOUS pack, divided in small packs. An Empire has laws, structure, money, police, y'know, that type of things. Tyranids are like birds, they flee where they could find what they need (biomass).

By the way, I think Necrontyr.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638308.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638308.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy?? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638341.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638341.page GMT Re:What was the greatest empire in the galaxy??
Failing that, probably the Necrons or the Eldar before the Fall.

They were probably greater than the Necrontyr, it depends how you define greatness I suppose.


Well, the Necrontyr needed the help of the C'Tan to win, so yeah the Old Ones were pretty strong IMHO.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638360.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638360.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy?? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638393.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5638393.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy?? IoM is said to be the biggest empire the galaxy has seen, but it is spread very thin.
The Eldar empire was highly concentrated around what is now the EoT, but at it's height probably contained more planets than the IoM does now.
The Necrontyr empire existed at the same time as the Old One empire, so whilst it was concentrated in certain areas, I don't think it was as big as the Eldar or IoM, but the armies were huge.

I think it's genuinely left vague as to who has/had the 'greatest' empire, they all have their own strengths and weaknesses, so that all of them sound amazing and without peer when described in the fluff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5639068.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5639068.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy??

It states in the Necron codex that Necrons have untold millions of world were as the Imperium only has 1 million or so]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5639172.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5639172.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy??

I didn't say it had less worlds than the IoM, just that it was smaller. It covered less area.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5639299.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5639299.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy?? IoM is a pale reflection of the hegemony the Necrons held at their height, after that is probably the Eldar at their height. The old ones are also strong contenders for the title of single greatest empire.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5641660.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5641660.page GMT Re:What was the greatest empire in the galaxy?? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5641792.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528223/5641792.page GMT What was the greatest empire in the galaxy??
