OOC thing here is that some time into the video (around 2:20) a general timeline of a Tyranid invasion is given, with day numbers on notable developments with Tyranid progress on an invasion, including the fact that the hive ship doesn't enter orbit until far into the invasion

cow-man
Subject: Re: To Slay a Xenos 2014-11-19, 18:08
Ooc: here's a few reasons.
1: it sucks. 2: it breaks canon on multiple occasions. 3: the writing is appalling, and the characters are boring and horribly voice acted. 4: ride to hell: retribution, gave it a run for its money graphics wise. 5: boreale. 6: RHHHIINNOOOSSS 7: METAL BAWKSEZ 8: it sucks.
It's got good game mechanics, but I don't rate it for story or lore accuracy.

Local Bat Enthusiast
Subject: Re: To Slay a Xenos 2014-11-19, 18:21
what you on about
DOW perfectly shows the canon and is 100% accurate to it
Especially the part where the imperial guard, sisters of battle and space marines murdered eachother for no reason
Gorath
Subject: Re: To Slay a Xenos 2014-11-19, 18:22
that made some sense in dark crusade but admittedly no sense in soulstorm actually the sisters killing everyone made some sense in soulstorm as far as I'm aware cause ya know warp storm all are tainted purge with fire
but other than that wat other canon breakin be ye on about? not saying its not there just that i didn't notice it
