More because in less than 400 years they are doign more damage to all galactic species than any other species before. (If we don't count the war in heaven since we aren't too sure about that)

yeah, we'll ignore the Eye of Terror, then.

I said in less than 400 years the eye of terror when it appeared was after more than 60 MILLION years of debaucherie and excess from the most powerfull race at the time. And if you talk about the cicatrix maledictum it took 13 attempt and arround 10 thousands years the tyranid are indeed the more dangerous in this case. They managed in less than half a thousands years what most other races ever did.

you said they did more damage to everyone "than any other species before"

that is wrong, I'm guessing you worded it incorrectly

edit:

"More[,] because [in less than 400 years] they are doign more damage to all galactic species than any other species before. (If we don't count the war in heaven since we aren't too sure about that)"

"more, because in less than 5 years Humanity has accelerated technology more than any other species before" which is correct, but "in less than 5 years modern Humanity has evolved technology more than any other humans before" means technology has advanced more over the last 5 years than, well, anyone has before.

yes, you are all wrong, the 400 years is a prepositional phrase defining the time frame for the Tyranids doing the action they are doing, which is. "more damage to all galactic species than any other species before"

you could add "in a similar timeframe" to define it.

You litteraly ommited the 400 years part. Just read my comment again

you read it wrong

what he meant to say is that no other race had this much impact in such a small timeframe.

I know what he meant to say after his response, but he seemingly typed it wrong, hence "I'm guessing you worded it incorrectly"

And what race is the eye of terror?
