It might just be a fan theory. I'd have to check into it, and I'm too lazy to do so.

[OREOSOME]

IIRC, the part that the Eldar supposedly had a hand in was the appearance of the Ethereal Caste.

Post before I slumber:
A Zerg creature vs its Tyranid ripoff equivalent.
Heck, include the Xenomorphs abs their Tyranid ripoff equivalent.
One on one.
Who is victorious?

For clarification: take a Tyranid creature and the creature it was ripped off of inspired from in one on one combat. Who wins?

[Sirus]

Well, considering that Tyranids around before the Zerg, it should be Tyranid creature vs it's Zerg ripoff equivalent

And I wouldn't want to place bets on any of those matchups.

Since 40K was around before most of us were born it would be
Tryranid vs their Zerg ripoff equivalent
and
Tryranid vs their xenomorph ripoff equivalent.

I think xenomorphs were around before the genestealers, at least. Not entirely sure.

As always, this talk will end in mumble mumble Starship Troopers mumble mumble Other Old Scifi That Inspired Everything mumble mumble anyway. Let's just go with 'equivalent' instead of the nasty word 'rip-off', okay?

[Frumple]

"Riff" is another good one that's somewhat less pejorative. Probably a bit more accurate when there's direct inspiration involved, as with the tyranids to zerg, too.

Meself, I'm calling old one. A fucking Farseer (The Farseer, admittedly with a more benevolent reputation than many though still engineering Armageddon), renowned for throwing other species lives away to protect their own, feels strangely protective of your race and thinks you will do great things? Somethings up. I'm get the impression the Eldar are staving of until they see who;s running the show.

Genestealer versus Xenomorph: I'm going to give this one to the Xenomorph because... It'd be a close fight. So close I can't actually pick one, so I'm just going with my favorite.

I can't decide on Tyranids v. Zerg because it would depend on what the Tyrands were equipped with.

[Sirus]

Well, at the most basic level (Zergling vs Termagaunt) it would have to go to the gaunts. Both sides function best in numbers, but only one side has guns that shoot flesh-eating beetles or whatever.

[Xantalos]

Sorry about the 'ripoff' thing, I was not really thinking at the time and forgot how old 40k is.

[Xantalos]

Better crossover idea get!

The Star Wars verse vs their parody, the Spaceballs verse. Who wins?
Yes I know it's probably Star Wars, but still.

[Sirus]

Star Wars annihilates the Space Balls universe. Because I hate that movie <_<;

[Hanslanda]

Space Balls is fucking hilarious. Mel Brooks is a comedic genius.
