FOUND YOU, MEAT! YOU CAN'T RUN FOREVER! COME HERE!
I run from the tyranid warrior through the derelict space hulk, attempting to lose him, though I knew it was impossible without my chrono-vortex weapon.
I KNOW YOUR TRICKS! CANT RUN, CANT HIDE! I'LL DEVOUR YOU!
Oh? I'll have you know, I can do both. I jump into a small storage compartment and seal it.
GOOD LUCK, MEAT! I WILL FIND YOU!
Good luck finding me, tyranid shit-bread!
I will tear you limb from limb, meat! No one can escape my wrath!
You could start with your mouth and shut it. Maybe you'll stop making bad decisions with your mouth, like saying 'I will tear you limb from limb, meat! No one can escape my wrath!' Those decisions bite you in the ass. We both know that meat that escapes from you ends up getting eaten by other predators, which hurts your chances of getting fed. If you stayed your damn mouth shut, we'd both be better off.
That was one of the most brilliant things I've ever read. Thank you for giving me a good laugh. It's not often I come across such wisdom in the middle of an encounter with a deadly creature.
Do you think you can defeat this Tyranid? If so, please tell me your plan of attack.
I would use my chrono-vortex weapon to slow down time, ensuring that I had enough time to get away, or at least get some shots in.
And if you didn't have a chrono-vortex weapon?
A timely roll of the dice.
Most people don't carry around dice with them, however. How about using a different weapon to try and weaken the warrior before trying to run?
My weapon isn't really meant for close quarters.
So what is your weapon exactly? And how does it work?
It's a large laser weapon, and it doesn't work too well at close quarters because of the high recoil and lack of precision. Also, it runs on coolant, which would quickly deplete in close combat.
Is there another weapon you have access to? Perhaps something more suitable for close quarters combat?
Nah, I usually just rely on stealth and ranged attacks. Close combat is where things get dicey.
Stealth sounds interesting. How about we play a little game. You start running, and I will try to catch you. Sound fair?
Fair enough, but remember, I'm the guy who makes scattergun-range conversations look hilarious.
Very well then. On your mark, get set... GO!
Hey, Specimen-2448! I bet you taste horrible! Even after being fried in a laser fight, you probably taste horrible! Maybe you should just stick to fighting other Tyranids! Or maybe its just me, being rude and offensive.
Why yes, I do believe you are the one being rude and offensive! How dare you insult my palate?
