By a WAAAAAGH, I mean like two thirds the galaxy's worth of Orks bullrushing the Tyranids and the Chaos.

Also, Tyranids and warp space do NOT mix.

And?

Chaos is still, well, Chaos. They've got like a whole other galaxy to themselves, and space marines, and space magic, and stuff. One race, devoting only a third of its resources to the task, driving it back when it was defeating some of the strongest races in the previous millenium, is odd.
Orks aren't chaotic. The 'Nids don't need to deal with chaos from them. They also reproduce faster and change quickly, possibly incorporating orkish DNA (and psychic or technological ability?). And there's, like, a galaxy-sized swarm of them slowly descending on our galaxy.

1. Quadcoptors? Link, please.

Here's a Wikipedia article for you, too.

...Isn't that kinda small?
And aircraft suffer a number of disadvantages from needing to be, you know, light enough to not be stuck on the ground.

I didn't have ghost armor or alloy cannons, and I think my heavy got killed earlier.

I'd say it's more like comparing the Enterprise to the Death Star, or maybe comparing Miyamoto to an Imperial Titan, but whatever.

And wouldn't the Tyranids eat the orks? Like they do everything else?
And I'm surprised the orks are beating chaos on their own turf.

Well...Demons are made by other demons, usually powerful ones. It's more like mitosis than pregnancy or whatever, but it isn't much like either.
Demons are theoretically immortal. Any demon, from the least imp to the greatest archdemon, will live until the end of time--or, more likely, until something stronger kills them. I'm not sure what happens after that, though.

Typical demonic lifespans are usually "only" around several millenia. 400,000 years is pretty rare for those that don't get to the top. It's a demon-eat-demon world.

Demons aren't inherently defined. Ex. If Sen is a paper demon, it's a conscious choice she made at some point. Similarly with gender and whatnot.
Young demons are weak and fairly loyal to their creators, but cunning. They already know basic stuff, generally about all they (usually) need to survive and prosper except skills of various sorts.

Basic gist of it.
Somethings aren't in the pms, but it would take a while to prowl the forum posts to find.

And yeah, getting the posts located would be good.

I was looking for the opposite of "ex-". "Re-" or "in-" might have worked better.

You could have used "fallen below them."

Or "not even met them."

I wish you hadn't met my expectations. That would have been a good thing.

Follow Simus and/or Jim to the Briefing Room.

Ooh, nice.

The Orks, Dark Eldar, Tyranid and Chaos go on a killing spree, killing near-defenseless human worlds here, there and fucking everywhere. Lots of planets join the Tau, which greatly bolsters their ranks. The Eldar are still being the Eldar, and fight the Necron. Orks, which are now fucking numberless, find great joy in raiding warpspace, necron tombworlds and surviving space marine garrisons.

My bets on either the Necron, Tau (especially if the Eldar finally bitch out and join them) or Orks to take the galaxy.

No, I mean how do they FTL. I know the Tau (and Tyranids?) just do without, and the Eldar have this Webthingy, but what about the orks and stuff?
And I dunno, the 'Nids and Chaos still sounds like strong contenders.
