The Swarm of War is a Warhammer 40,000/Starcraft Crossover written by VexMaster. It tells the story of James Malcolm Raynor, a nerd with knowledge of both universes killed by a car... and reincarnated as a Zerg Larva on the fallen Aiur. The guy morphs to a Drone... then a Hatchery... then a Hive Cluster... and just as he's ready to take over after Kerrigan's depowerment... the Xel'Naga artifact transports him elsewhere. From that moment, James is no more. There is a new Overmind. And that Overmind lands on a new planet. A planet just in the middle of a Warp Storm. Well, time to rebuild... and consume.The first story arc — the first 40 chapters — is about the Overmind taking over the planet. The second arc — finished in summer 2014 — is about the Swarm testing itself against future enemies on a remote planet, opposed by the Imperium, the Eldar, the Chaos, Captain Titus... and Scout Sergeant Cyrus.Since the author is a teacher, most of the updates tend to be in the summer.As of 2015, the story is in the process of being beta'd, but is a very enjoyable one even without it. | |

Abnormal Ammo | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_12c65d9b | comment |
Abnormal Ammo: Can be expected, considering the setting. For the Swarm, goes all the way from the regular Hydralisk spines in the ground units to psionically charged Ultralisk sized Baneling bunches and ICBM sized explosive spines fired at relativistic speeds from the newer capital Living Ships. | |

Heroic RRoD: During the Battle of Tyran, the Overmind needs to take a Hive Tyrant's brain for study. Since he is forced to use a fully human avatar for secrecy, it is a close fight, and he barely has time to send the creature's brain away before his brain literally dissolves. | |

The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_14dfb81 | comment |
Power Creep, Power Seep: When the Imperium encounters the Zerg for the first time, they are much easier to dispatch than one would expect from the earlier chapters. That's because it's a Lost Colony which lacks some of the upgrades. | |

WorfEffect | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_15e76b62 | comment |
Worf Effect: The Overmind's first mental battle is against Ahzek Ahriman. That’s a ten thousand years old Badass with knowledge and power only surpassed by the Greater Daemons and Primarchs... and he’s completely Curb Stomped. At the end of arc 2, a hastily prepared Overmind Host takes out (barely) an Avatar of Khaine. Volran seems to suffer from the trope as well — as the Champion most inclined toward direct combat and brute strength, he was killed twice already. | |

Crapsack World | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Inquisitor Kryptman, on his way to Tyran, stops at a Deathwatch fortress and sees a lot of Astartes and Inquisitors there, far more than a Crapsack World like Warhammer ever allows to be idle. Further investigation leads to a massive Oh, Crap! moment for everyone once they realise something has silenced the Imperium's enemies all across the region. | |

False Flag Operation | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_2dddd99d | comment |
False Flag Operation: In the second story arc, a Zerg force is lost in a minor Warp anomaly and lands on an Imperium world. Investigation reveals Laser-Guided Amnesia in the colony's memories, which implies artificial causes with hints pointing toward the Eldar and their psyker powers. However, Volran guesses correctly that the real culprit is the Overmind, since only he could have done such a precise work. The next chapter reveals it was an Eldar attack all right, but the Overmind attempted to erase the evidence for his own reasons. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: The first Warboss against the Ultralisk, then the Kingdom forces against the Chaos. Alena and the Host deliver these to... well, whatever they have encountered in the first arc. An Avatar of Khaine turned out to be much more of a problem. | |

Body Horror | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Considering the universes involved, a number of examples are naturally present: When Zerg attack humans with acid and spores, the results are... not pretty. Roots growing through your body, acid melting off flesh... Chapter 23 describes a battlefield full of corpses... and then a severed head comes alive — a Spyling still has enough life in him to try searching for another host. Of course, a few tentacles must be grown first to move around. Chapter 61 contains a brief description of a Warp Drive detonating near a fleet of sea ships... since these naturally have no Gellar Field generators, one can guess what happens. | |

Cavalry Betrayal | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_54616909 | comment |
Cavalry Betrayal: The village which calls for help against the Orks is attacked due to Tobias being mistaken for a daemon. The Space Marines woken up to fight the Zerg (misidentified as a Chaos infestation) turn out to be largely corrupted by Chaos. During a battle between the King's Army and Chaos, forces led by the Loyalist Space Marines attack and wipe out the Chaos forces. The commander of the King's forces thanks them for the help... and is immediately exterminated along with his army; due to the King refusing to recognize the Space Marines as his superiors, his kingdom had been branded as heretics. | |

Off the Rails: The Overmind has decided to use its position in the timeline to change certain aspects. Most interestingly, knowing of the first Tyranid advances has allowed it to manipulate certain events so the Imperium is better prepared against Hive Fleet Behemoth in order to eventually change the timeline. It appears to be successful, forcing Marneus Calgar to choose between allowing the Zerg Overmind to consume his Primarch or destroying the Tyranid Hive Fleet entirely, saving Macragge and his Chapter. | |

It doesn't tend to extend to other children, in any case (although quite a few are spared for Pragmatic Villainy purposes).

Super-Empowering | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_78418ebb | comment |
Super-Empowering: Alena has the power to empower entire Zerg task forces around her. However, more importantly and very ironically, the Swarm is this... to its enemies. That is, because the Zerg consume Chaos energy in their vicinity, enemy psykers can use their powers against them with a significantly reduced risk of corruption. When a Space Marine team boards a Zerg Hive Ship, their Librarian uses his powers until he falls unconscious with exhaustion. | |

The Game Come to Life | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_79372d59 | comment |
The Game Come to Life: A variation. The Overmind designs a device that essentially transforms a planet it is deployed upon to fit the Starcraft rules. Meaning, Vespene geysers and mineral crystals pop all over, and Zerg get the Ridiculously Fast Construction times of the game... temporarily, at least; the cost in Essence is way too high. | |

It's Quiet… Too Quiet: Said by Captain Barridon right before his force and Inquisitor Pardia are attacked by the Zerg. Inquisitor Kryptman, on his way to Tyran, stops at a Deathwatch fortress and sees a lot of Astartes and Inquisitors there, far more than a Crapsack World like Warhammer ever allows to be idle. Further investigation leads to a massive Oh, Crap! moment for everyone once they realise something has silenced the Imperium's enemies all across the region. | |

Deader than Dead: The Zerg Khaydarin Crystals can absorb and process Chaos energy, making them one of the few reliable ways to permanently kill a daemon. Turns out Dark Templar energy disrupts Necron reviving just as efficiently as it does Zerg reincarnation. The Soul Changer runs a risk of permanently killing any Zerg leader using it, since it feeds directly on Essence. | |

The Neidermeyer: Captain Willon, having inherited his position as a commander. Actually worked quite well for him... until he became the first Imperium commander to engage the Tyranids. Not only does he pull a Leeroy Jenkins, he had also personally filled the commanding posts around him with boot-licking cowards. | |

The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_c3361ba | comment |
Those Were Only Their Scouts: In the first arc, the Zerg had most of their units burrow and hibernate, with little outside indication about the real size of their army. The Orks turn out to have an army millions strong on a remote archipelago. In the second arc, the Imperium has its first encounter with the Zerg... a rather degraded Lost Colony... | |

Gunship Rescue | |
The Swarm of War (Fanfic) / int_c558da6a | comment |
Gunship Rescue: During the Imperium's battle with the Zerg, a rampaging Ultralisk is destroyed by Valkyrie gunships. Then, a massive wave of enemies comes, too much for the gunships. All seems lost, but then a Kill Sat network reactivates. Kind of a Pyrrhic Victory though; the humans take enormous casualties themselves. | |

Mêlée à Trois: Five sides in the first arc. 1) The King's Army. 2) The Space Marines and Duke Verin's forces. 3) Judanus with his Chaos Marines and cultists. 4) Bugklaw with his Orks. 5) The Swarm. The second ark has the Swarm, the Imperium Inquisition, Chaos, Eldar, and Vegin, although it turns out he is actually with the Chaos. In one of the intermission chapters, the Swarm manipulates the Orks, Imperium and Eldar into that, with Dark Eldar and Chaos joining in later. | |

Unspoken Plan Guarantee: The Overmind doesn't tell Volran about the confrontation with the Eldar because, just like the Dark Templar, the Eldar can use the Hive Mind link of the Swarm to gain knowledge about the Zerg. In fact, a lot of his schemes appear to be hidden even from parts of his own mind. | |

Mental Fusion: In Chapter 76, two opponents are on the brink of death; a Zerg Patriarch, after being wounded in a battle and having served its purpose, and a Chaos Lord, after a You Have Failed Me from a superior due to being tricked by that Patriarch. The Patriarch offers to merge their minds together, since it will both strengthen them enough to survive, and make the Overmind notice the result and perhaps be impressed enough to grant the creature Resurrective Immortality. Seems to work. | |

Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better: The Swarm's first attack against an Imperium fleet starts with dozens of asteroids (with shield disruption fields). One Cobra Class Destroyer makes a Heroic Sacrifice, the rest survive, although not completely unscathed. Chapter 63 has the tables turned — a Chaos attack on a Zerg fleet starts with a bombardment by an entire shattered Emperor-class battleship. | |

Serial Escalation: Starts with a few hundred humans, a few hundred Orks, and the Overmind with a few dozen Zerglings... Ends up with human armies a million strong, hundreds of Chaos Space Marines, hundreds of Daemons. hundreds of thousands of Chaos Cultists, millions of Orks, and tens of millions of Zerg (with all kinds of advanced tech brought out). And all of that is before the expansion to other planets starts... | |
