Main Thread

You are the Invaders, some god-awful unknown species from the depths of space. Older than any current species, with an origin unknown to all but you, your species have decimated galaxies and won't stop until the end of all sentient life has come about in the universe.

You are The Craving.

The Invaders

Spoiler: The Craving (click to show/hide)

Name: The Craving
Description: The Craving is a parasitic, galaxy-sprawling fungoid, capable of breaking down and rebuilding deceased flesh in any manner it chooses. It plagues the galaxy, lead forward by a necrotic hive-mind, constantly seeking to increase the numbers of its ever-growing undead horde.
Special Trait: The Craving is an ever-consuming mass of flesh and fungus, and it seeks only one thing and one thing alone; the destruction of all sentient life across the galaxy. Your units hit on 4, 5, and 6 on an Attack role, instead of only 5 and 6.

Starting Unit:

Walker

Infantry Breed

One of the simplest creations of The Craving, a Walker takes the appearance of whatever creature that it once was before its death, though its flesh has melted through its clothing and it constantly secretes some form of bile from its orifices.  They act as your primary infantry, cheap to produce yet low quality in terms of stats.

1 Attack.
1 Health.

No modifiers.

Obvious choice is obvious.

Flood: (2) SC, ES
Zerg: (0)

Flood: (3) SC, ES, K
Zerg: (0)

Biophages are more interesting.

[evictedSaint]

Honestly, the invaders are just plain more interesting.

+1 to floods

Pretty good consensus so far. The Expansionists are vastly under-populated for players right now, so we're pretty much just waiting on them. Until then, there's always the possibility some new guys could 180 this vote if they wanted to.

Maybe adding a non-humanoid race would entice more players to the expansionists?

how tf are hyper-intelligent wiener dogs gonna wield laser guns, saint?

[Shadowclaw777]

Why the hell does it have to sapient wiener dogs?, while not adding something like the Necron from 40k a robotic/skeletal species, for example?, also wth how did you come with wiener dogs as your third species, also you don’t need opposable thumbs on a humanoids to wield rifles, for example those insects can hold guns, etc just need a appendage. For example sapient cephalopods

A robotic species, maybe, but I'd have to come up with a special trait for them as well as the Attack and Health of their starting unit.

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. : (

I didn't really think about how my comment would come across, and I am sorry.

It was a joke. I didn't take any offense, hence why I suggested you were suggesting something like wiener dogs. I understood the point you were making and I'm adjusting the Expansionists accordingly.

Oh, alright!

Well, you could have all sorts of different non-human aliens.  Maybe a giant beetle species with multiple limbs, hard shells and upward facing eyes?  Amphibious ants with colony Queens who are the most intelligent?  A species of lizards with vestigial wings, but long tails and fierce strength?  The Borg?  The mechanic-spiders from Host?  A species of snakes with multiple tentacles to allow them to manipulate objects, and a predisposition for industrial-looking mechanics?
