That one of those Hive in that concept art has four arms. Can they assimilate other races in a Flood-like fashion?

Yep :) No idea what implications that brings to the table, other than a comparison to the flood, but I am very intrigued. Can any race be assimilated? Hive Cabal? o_O Does it matter whether the assimilated bodies are dead or alive? The term "space zombies" has been mentioned. In what ways are they like zombies, or how close are they to our idea of zombies? If the hive is composed if other assimilated species, is there an original hive creature or is the whole race the product of a manufactured virus/infection/creature? How do the "undead royalty" come into play? My mind is kinda going crazy with all sorts of questions....
