Published 19 August, 2008 Duration 2:58

You called it, and you were right. The new race in DoW 2 will be those pesky alien swarmers the 'Nids. If you're unfamiliar with 40K, the Tyranids are totally alien, unfeeling hive-mind creatures manipulated on a genetic level by their queen. The Zerg of the 40K battlefield.

Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles would be the only thing I can think of involving guys in power suits and giant bug aliens.

It's actually a very, very good series. And not a kids show. (One of the DVDs even manages to get a 12 BBFC certificate, which for a show with very little blood, no sex and no swears is quite an achievement)

they are NOT the zerg of the 40K battlefield. Blizzrd based the Zerg on the Tyranids, as they actually have zero creative abilities of their own.

Every product they have is lifted straight from WFB and 40K

@anomagnus

Thats probably true but i am sure GW did some ripping off to get most of their races and ideas (the "nids" do look like Aliens).

I already see those Starcraft 2 fanboys swarming every place, flaming, how relic ripped of the spacemarines and now even their beloved Zerg.

The videos description should be altered to "The mother of all Zergs of the 40K battlefield."!

I for one embrace the unstoppable onslaught of the Great Devourer. They've been a long time coming and hopefully they'll live up to everyone's expectations.

I thought I'd been tricked into watching the same video twice, but that was awesome.
I just hope the DoW2 engine can cope with massive swarms, or more to the point my PC.
