general-chat

[mystic bone]

Fair point

[ocean widget]

Emotional support via execution of incompetent team members

[silver mango]

Join the Adeptus Mechanicus

We have femboys

[gloomy tartan]

A commisar class that team kills and gets your account banned

[hard crane]

Compact bad teammates into corpse starch which gives all their stats to any teammate that eats it

[primal parcel]

But yeah. A tech preist in training or something wouldnt be a bad support. Maybe give little boosts like increased toughness or damage

[ocean widget]

Me omw to megabuff the ogryn 20 seconds into the match

[gloomy tartan]

Doesn’t every faction at this point lol?

[floral ermine]

we call that barreling in this house

[hard crane]

The ogryn suddenly developing a third brain cell after eating the psyker

[silver mango]

Maybe, but we have cyber-femboys

[mint gate]

I mean the customizable stims are as “support” as we need. People are doing fine without a support

[somber stream]

Darktide doesn't need a support class

[gloomy tartan]

So they have built in speakers big whoop

[primal parcel]

Its about time. Liabilies we can just feed the het Ogryn

[ocean widget]

Darktide ogryn eats the psyker
Becomes strong enough to rival the chaos gods

[somber stream]

But we do need cat girls

[gloomy tartan]

We should be able to self convert into corpse starch and give the ogryn all of your power and abilities like the super skrull

[hazy crescent]

amazing

[hard crane]

Can’t wait to give the ogryn until death and shroudfield

[silver mango]

They also jabe built in [REDACTED] support and [REDACTED] [REDACTED] for extra suction and also [REDACTED] for better grip

[gloomy tartan]

D:

[primal parcel]

Wait shit that could legit be the next class.

[hard crane]

Heretics watching as a one ton 10 foot tall figure appears infront of them outta nowhere

[gloomy tartan]

Imagine the smell when they get their fur burnt tho dawg 🙁

[somber stream]

Not in codex so ain't happening, unfortunately

[primal parcel]

Wait fr? They arent?

[hard crane]

Imagine smelling LITERALLY AT ALL you’re fighting NURGLE

[somber stream]

No existing Felinid official art, model nor codex

[silver mango]

In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium there are no catgirls

[marsh iris]

imagine the smell

[gloomy tartan]

That’s the neat part, you don’t.

[tawny gorge]

they exist though

[somber stream]

But the Emperor himself love and adore cat girls and boys, this is canon. Im not lying.

[marsh iris]

girl cat

[gloomy tartan]

This some mad heretical shit going on in chat rn

[ripe tangle]

People are weird about this, it’s literally only mentioned as a species in an outdated Rogue Trader book from like 30 years ago and people still cling to the idea because “catgirls”

[mystic bone]

Honestly kinda sad that a lot of Abhumans in general don't get official depictions.

[tawny gorge]

is it lol

[ripe tangle]

it’s fucking stupid and weird

[marsh iris]

alfabusa felinid should be canon

[gloomy tartan]

Tall women should be cannon

[somber stream]

Because the very idea is funny

[mystic bone]

It is still mentioned in newer books now.

Kroot also mentioned them and how they're kinda quite extreme.

[tawny gorge]

i wouldnt call the 6th edition rulebook rogue trader

[somber stream]

They are mentioned in Darktide actually

[mystic bone]

So they are still acknowledged

Zero descriptions or anything though

[marsh iris]

what about ratgirls

[ripe tangle]

Imagine we finally see what they look like and they look like the abominations from the Cats musical movie

[opal wyvern]

Has all that gas stop burning yet?

[tawny gorge]

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Felinid

[mystic bone]

Although tbh in general Abhumans need more artistic depictions.

I think only Ogryns, Ratlings, and Beast men have actual art

[gloomy tartan]

One word, Whiskers

[tawny gorge]

they're basically humans

[ripe tangle]

Longshanks and Voidborn do too

[twin flower]

Weird thing is, people would prolly still goon to it

[gloomy tartan]

So Danny Devito class ?

[rocky radish]

We have a different, worse kind of corruption going on right now

[mystic bone]

I have a funny headcanon that they are both furries and the generic anime cat ppl.

But it's dependant on temperature. If it's cold they just immediately grow fur and look sorta like the cats movie abominations.

Summer/hot weather and it harmlessly falls off

[tawny gorge]

oh nah ratlings arent humans they're too powerful to be considered human

[hard crane]

Oh god the shedding would be horrible

[somber stream]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/cB9wd-s6Jfo
Found the short
"My beloved says felinids are particularly beautiful"

Big E love cat girls confirmed

[ripe tangle]

Longshanks are basically just really tall long humans, imagine a human with a torso that’s 3 meters long and 3-4 meter long limbs

[gloomy tartan]

Long neck ass people ?

[ripe tangle]

voidborn look like regular humans except with huge eyes and extremely pale skin

[twin flower]

Slenderpeople

[hard crane]

what like anime girl-esc eyes?

[ripe tangle]

Basically yeah

[twin flower]

I thought voidborn just had pure black eyes with the pale skin

[marsh iris]

hairy elves

[mystic bone]

Yeah that's basically what I imagine.

Along with that being the reason why no pictures exist. There's simply confusion due to the temperature based process

[gloomy tartan]

Fuck that if they like like slender man they can go live in caves

[tawny gorge]

could be true Janus straight up said "that kroot is unreliable i want my catgirls"

[ripe tangle]

big and black and can see in the dark yeah

[mystic bone]

Also if they have to have anime cat girls

I kinda imagine them like the 80s - 90s type with wild poofy hair

[gloomy tartan]

Like the depiction of the classic gray alien?

[somber stream]

Next class is either a Admech or sister, leaning more to the later. Also rumour has it new enemy faction next year

[mystic bone]

Sister would be too similar to Zealot.

[somber stream]

The only similar bit they share is they scream a lot

[tawny gorge]

youre leaning more towards sisters for what reason lol

[gloomy tartan]

My veteran screams for their ability too

[placid wolf]

AdMech would be a really cool summoner class

[stark bobcat]

would they summon DN?

[twin flower]

seeing that they didnt name hive scoom just ganger they'll prolly think of something else for admech

[placid wolf]

Servo Skulls

[marsh iris]

i imagine a felinid guardsman would chitter on their guard post like cats chitter at birds

[somber stream]

Personal preference

Also there's a Shrine world in the system, Crucis

[gloomy tartan]

Throw a boot at them to keep ‘em quiet

[tawny gorge]

thought you were talking about what was more likely

[rocky radish]

Any one of these would be amazing

[somber stream]

'Muh gangz' glad we got that out of the way

[twin flower]

Hear me out.. AdMech Battle Sister

[hard crane]

I mean cats do it to mimic birds, imagine just being at your post and the felinid starts making tyranid noises or any other xenos noises

[gloomy tartan]

Shoot them because their clearly corrupted

[ripe tangle]

kinda, except facial features and body proportions are still relatively normal to baseline humanity

but otherwise yeah kind of

[gloomy tartan]

It’s giving uncanny valley

[somber stream]

Ive got a video of an interview with FS lead creative director, there's a lot of hinting but it's still more to he says she says for now

[ripe tangle]

most abhumans would give uncanny valley vibes if they were real tbh

[gloomy tartan]

Except ogryn they are perfect

[ripe tangle]

true, but even they’d be kinda scary irl considering how massive they are

[somber stream]

I imagine Orgyrn's quarter would smell like a zoo

[gloomy tartan]

Oh fuck yeah it would be like standing next to a horse, your aware your next to a large organic creature that can easily cripple and kill you

[ripe tangle]

they’re not as uncanny valley as other abhumans though

[twin flower]

You think theres an Ogryn out there just disgusted about how messy other ogryns are and just clean after them

[somber stream]

I would say a hippo, but close

[hard crane]

He puts up the act just to get extra rations

[gloomy tartan]

I mean true hippo is more dangerous, I just ment the twitch muscles of a horse kicking you lol

I’m sure a human could easily surprise a ogryn and the ogryn just swat them to death like we would swat at a moth or fly

[bitter matrix]

I kinda wonder how broken the new DT character will be

[rocky radish]

Like Eddie Hall, but with a room temperature IQ. If you kept them well fed, they'd probably be awesome

[twin flower]

Well arby was strong af when it came out

[hard crane]

I bet the stim lab bouta have some great combos with other characters if we can share the stim

[marsh iris]

broken personality

[somber stream]

There better be a Jinxesque archetype

[marsh iris]

would they say "For The Emperor/Atoma" though

[bitter matrix]

According to the devlog, you can. Their support combat ability is apparently like a medkit that gives a AOE buff of whatever stimm you have going

[gloomy tartan]

The fent ganger comes with the fent pusher personality

[bitter matrix]

To not be ripped in half by the zealot? Yeah probs

[marsh iris]

FOR MEEEEE

[hard crane]

I meant the stim itself, like I get the ability would give it to all 4 players at once.

[twin flower]

Wonder what the story would be though, like who recruited the scoom in the first place

[somber stream]

Hmmmm. Goat woman

[twin flower]

Go on

[somber stream]

Like Beastmen, but female. Beastwomen?

[gloomy tartan]

Like the best woman? Or like hooves and weird goat eyeballs?

[somber stream]

Hooves

[gloomy tartan]

Why do goats have anime eyes

[glacial shoal]

hey all, how we doing

[primal parcel]

Breaking Lex Breakers

[glacial shoal]

hell yeah

[somber stream]

But still not in the codex so it's also not happening

[glacial shoal]

i'm debating what I wanna play between ogryn vet and arb rn

[primal parcel]

Well only one of those is the correct answer

[glacial shoal]

my arb is a very angry manlet but he cares

I wanna play darktide but not having any homies to play with kinda feels bad

[gloomy tartan]

Manlet is an understated subclass irl.

[glacial shoal]

I have my arb set to min height for male lol

[twin flower]

Short king

[gloomy tartan]

Now you can hunt criminals in every crevice they hide in

[glacial shoal]

it looks hilarious when we're in the pre game lobby

[twin flower]

No one is safe from the Lex

[gloomy tartan]

Looks like the goontide has passed

[somber stream]

Being short in Darktide is actually better than tall, give you the tactical advantage of lining up the headshots

[gloomy tartan]

Short kings are more tactical?

[somber stream]

The only downside is the constant short jokes whenever you're in the hub or in loading screen

[somber stream]

Yes, less profile = less boolet will land on you, see?

[bitter matrix]

I think you should. Idk why not

[twin flower]

Imagine ifthey jumped shorter than the taller ones too lmao

[glacial shoal]

I posted his height in #darktide-pics-vids

[somber stream]

lol cute

Very tactical and menacing

[glacial shoal]

what build do I go for though
nvm all my talent points were reset

[glacial shoal]

you could have said cute too 😛

[acoustic pebble]

AHHHHH I CAN'T WAIT FOR SCUM!!

[somber stream]

Menacingly cute

Idk if that works

[glacial shoal]

it does, ty

[marsh iris]

cute scum?

[somber stream]

I'll make the shortest hive scum known to man, with the rattiest personality

[glacial shoal]

[marsh iris]

can i pet it

[somber stream]

It will bite, but you may attempt to

[twin flower]

throw it food

or stims

[marsh iris]

[reef quest]

yike! this is dust!

[somber stream]

This is so cursed

[marsh iris]

y tho

[somber stream]

Petgryn

[glacial shoal]

[somber stream]

Picture this, a 3 metres tall Ogryn, purring while receiving pets

Shivers

[twin flower]

what if their heads are actually that soft too

[elder merlin]

[sage wyvern]

is the rocket launcher gonna be ammo based or recharge?

[acoustic pebble]

Recharge. It's a blitz

[low blade]

Phew am I ready to abuse semi-legal stimulants

And also the scum class I guess

[elder merlin]

Oh, i thought blitzes were the grenades

[acoustic pebble]

Oooh then probably ammo

[elder merlin]

Or i could be wrong

I always forget the terms for shit

[acoustic pebble]

It IS a blitz tho

[buoyant loom]

blitz is your class rechargable thing

[elder merlin]

Oh ok

[acoustic pebble]

Gotcha

[somber stream]

So they pull out a krak warhead out of their ass every 45 seconds

[elder merlin]

Please let there be a cooldown node for it too

I wanna be like Jill Valentine in RE Resistance, just spam tubin shit

[vague elm]

Just going to take a moment to appreciate that we will soon have thousands of hivers running around pulling RPGs out they assess like cartoons.

[acoustic pebble]

Forget pocket sand. Time for

POCKET ROCKET

[somber stream]

Would've been cooler had they presented the Bazooka in the trailer ngl

Hope they have neon blue for the hair colour

[acoustic pebble]

I saw a dark blue. I'm happy

[somber stream]

Oh? That works too

[marsh iris]

hot pocket

[acoustic pebble]

Ye, it shows some hairstyles and colors on one of the dev blogs

[somber stream]

Yeah looking at it now
The hairstyle alone is a warcrime holy fuck

[acoustic pebble]

It's beautiful

I will be the blue mowhawk boi

[somber stream]

Mordecai
"Awww yeeeaahhh"

[elder merlin]

Link? Is it the same ones i already saw?

[somber stream]

https://www.playdarktide.com/news/new-class-reveal-hive-scum

[acoustic pebble]

Probably

[elder merlin]

Yeah, i saw these

[acoustic pebble]

I WANT THAT MOHAWK

[elder merlin]

Thanks though

[elder merlin]

I just want a mohawk for my ogryn

[acoustic pebble]

MINE

Just made a steam discussion praising the Hive Scum. Hoping to see if any MadMech bros reply

[jaunty path]

could u link me it so I can watch

[silver mango]

Inshallah your PC will explode

[acoustic pebble]

Beep Boop Fahk you >:D

[acoustic pebble]

I'm sorreh I am just excited. Have a present

Presents Toaster Stim

[silver mango]

Too late infidel

[acoustic pebble]

Steals your toasters

[silver mango]

We now have air fryers

[vague elm]

[acoustic pebble]

Not anymore!
Griddies on stolen air fryers

[silver mango]

[glacial shoal]

I hope yall are having a good night btw

[acoustic pebble]

Eyyy you too!

[glacial shoal]

ty but no u

[acoustic pebble]

No u

[marsh iris]

[trim lotus]

whaaaaaaat there's queue for logging in now lmao

[glacial shoal]

is there lmao

[trim lotus]

ive dropped the screenshot in #arbites-class

[ionic gulch]

Welp, I can't get in

[acoustic pebble]

Everyone's so excited for the Hive Scum that they flooded the game

[ionic gulch]

Steam was briefly down for me, I think that was it for me,

[acoustic pebble]

The MadMechs are planning something

[odd shadow]

Is the crashout over chat?

Can I finally enjoy this discord in peace for once

[mystic bone]

Honestly, my hope was for a Kroot Mercenary.

I knew that the chances are like 1/10000000

But c'mon. Who wouldn't want to play as a cannibal warrior Xeno.

But tbh Hive Scum looks cool.

Ignoring the trailer being generic af.

Akimbo and rocket launcher

[astral basin]

Make #arbites-class scum-class
Make the cops mad

[cerulean frost]

At least we know the next class will not be a ganger.

[mystic bone]

I hope at least we get Necromunda as a new origin

[cerulean frost]

That would be interesting. Also, I am glad someone else likes the idea of akimbo weapons.

[odd shadow]

Lore wise majority of Hive Scum became or get conscripted to be guardsmen or even penal legionaries so i will be interesting between the vets and hive scum

[astral basin]

Im pretty sure most orgins are going to be tertium based, with maybe a singular exception

[mystic bone]

Listen

It's 40k.

What's considered a flashlight is a fucking laser gun that can cut people's limbs off with one shot. We got like three types of super soldiers.

I think akimbo is perfectly fine

40k always had a sense of ridiculousness for fun

[astral basin]

I just learned yesterday admech has their own terminators
So
Yeah
Myrmidons

[mystic bone]

I do think that Dual Wielding can be hard to balance though.

Halo dropped it after 3 for this reason

[twin flower]

Really?

[royal badge]

Usually dual wielded guns aren't functionally that unique ngl

[languid hazel]

It can be very easy to dual wield.

Err balance for dual wielding

:3

[royal badge]

The pistols are probably gonna play similar to the braced autogun

[mystic bone]

Yeah probably.

Still would be fun

[royal badge]

The dual stub guns might be neat though

[whole glade]

anybody else near sighted asf?

[cerulean frost]

I assume the dual mini-uzis will play similar to the shredder autopistol, if that is the case.

[royal badge]

Yea

[odd shadow]

I wonder how the dual wield knives or sword would work

[royal badge]

The stub pistols look like m1911s which will be fun though

Really fast attack speed I guess?

[cerulean frost]

They look more like berettas to me.

[odd shadow]

Hmm just basically the knife but with faster swipes

[dense slate]

if only you were on PC, and own VT2. you'd get a mowhawk

[royal badge]

Yeah just some generic semi auto pistols

We don't have a gun like that atm besides the laspistol

[dense slate]

shredder autopistol?

[astral basin]

1911s and uzis
A setting so advanced that you cant even have pipe pistols. But actual machine engineered guns.

[royal badge]

Thats a machine pistol

[dense slate]

laspistol isnt semiauto either

[odd shadow]

Well can’t wait for the rawket launcher and stim ability seems pretty neat to bring your own stim

[astral laurel]

How? One trigger pull = one full firing cycle.

[dense slate]

aka one single shot

[astral laurel]

Yeah, that's semi-auto

[royal badge]

The stim thing sounds really cool, I'm surprised it wasn't just their blitz slot

[astral laurel]

What did you think semi-auto was?

[dense slate]

in my brain semiauto means it has an option to be auto

[royal badge]

No

[cerulean frost]

Unfortunately not.

[astral laurel]

No, that's a fire selector

[royal badge]

Actual gun dweebs would be fuming rn

[cerulean frost]

And usually, the fire selector on handguns does not allow for a fully automatic setting.

[mystic bone]

Just say that the ganger committed tech Heresy and added one

[cerulean frost]

The ganger would use a switch.

[royal badge]

I reckon the twin stubbers won't be full auto

[astral laurel]

No but they do have autopistols

[royal badge]

Yeah the autoguns will be ofc

But the stubbers look like they'll be the slightly slower, heavier hitting option

[astral laurel]

This is what I want

I want akimbo

And I want crowbar.

And hive scum has this.

[quartz isle]

BLICKY AND FENT SLIMIN OUT THE OPS ON OBLOCK

[gloomy tartan]

What’s difference between single shot, semi auto?

[cerulean frost]

Naturally, autopistols will be better for horde clearing, while being somewhat innacurate to balance out the high volume of fire.

[quartz isle]

GIMME A GOLDEN DURAG COSMETIC PLEASE FATSHARK 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🙏🙏

[astral basin]

Automatic chambering
Full auto means the bullets practically glide out of the gun
Semi auto means theres an extra step somewhere between the bullets but you dont have to necessarily participate in putting the bullet in the chamber

[royal badge]

I do think it's kinda bs that scum gets a stun grenade that recharges with kills when poor zealot still has to regen theirs from grenade boxes

[astral laurel]

Whether or not you or the gun cycles a new round into the chamber.

[main zephyr]

We don't need female space marines
We have female custodes

[royal badge]

Even the damn knives don't work that way

[hard gust]

I wonder

[gloomy tartan]

Guys I just realized, do we have any burst guns at all yet? Like burst fire?

[dense slate]

they do actually

[cerulean frost]

We do yes.

[astral basin]

Would be funny if fabius bile did it for shits amd giggles

[royal badge]

Don't they regen from ammo pickups?

[astral laurel]

You can literally pick up gravel and sand from the ground. Also yeah the knives regen on elite kill.

[dense slate]

and elite melee kills

[acoustic pebble]

DONT FORGET THE DRRRUUUUUUUGGGSSSSS

[royal badge]

Oh yeah

[gloomy tartan]

Which gun shoots in bursts like a 3 shot rifle?

[cerulean frost]

One of the autoguns fires in bursts.

[elder merlin]

I wonder, if i give someone on pc my login, that has vermintide 2, have them login and get the pack, will it give it to me on console?

[gloomy tartan]

Ooooo ok I need to look at that

[royal badge]

Is the new blitz just sand then 🤔

[astral basin]

Vigilance auto

[main zephyr]

No it's called pocket sand

[astral laurel]

The way it was described was pocket sand to me. And it also seems to be a much smaller aoe than the zealot's stun.

[acoustic pebble]

Pocket Rocket

[gloomy tartan]

How is the vigilance auto? Is it aight or is it like infantry las where it hurts to use?

[royal badge]

Ah

[dense slate]

if a steam account owns both darktide and vermintide 2 you get the cosmetics, so, should feasably work, if both are owned by the same account on steam

[acoustic pebble]

Burst* But not my cup of tea

[royal badge]

Zealots other two grenades feel anemic compared to knives ngl

[gloomy tartan]

Ah my bad vigilance burst

[royal badge]

I usually only get to use them like a couple times per mission

[astral laurel]

It basically is a quick blitz that you can cast in the middle of your melee combo

[gloomy tartan]

I see…only automatic I’ve used is the recon las. I usually use bolter and sometimes the regular shotgun

[acoustic pebble]

It's great with accuracy, but I like to Brrrrrrrrrrrrt

[astral basin]

I like the vigilance for the control bc im a controller player
But. It doesnt slap as readily as some of the other guns

[dense slate]

though, it does depend, and you'd probably have to buy both games again on steam itself before you can log in with your own fatshark account, though im not sure on such specifics

[main zephyr]

i play with controller and primarily use helbore on vet

[elder merlin]

So give someone i trust my darktide login info and have them do it on their steam account? Get mohawk on console?

[astral basin]

Vigilance autogun is thr name
Burst is its function

[rigid peak]

[royal badge]

helbore isn't real

[gloomy tartan]

Hey what are the 3 different special shots on the combat shotguns again? I forget I know the agripinnna has a slug for its special shots

[main zephyr]

i wonder if we can get a dale gribble build if hive scum gets pocket sand

[stark bobcat]

Duckbill, slug, fire shell

[dense slate]

as long as its someone you 100% trust, like an IRL friend, i think it's worth trying if its no financial loss involved

[royal badge]

When the fuck did we get a duckbill shot?

I thought there were only two

[main zephyr]

one of em has a fire round

[rigid peak]

We're still missing the arbites sniper shotgun. Literally unplayable.

[candid stratus]

why isnt it 2nd of dec already

[gloomy tartan]

So Agri is slug, zarona is fire and accatran is spread?

[astral basin]

And arby shotty gets a taser shot

[dense slate]

because its november 20th

[royal badge]

There is no melta, there is no longlas, and there is no ogryn hammer

[elder merlin]

Might ask @ocean widget tomorrow

[rigid peak]

There's no radium carbine either.

[candid stratus]

you realise the arbite shotgun can already crossmap most enemies right?

[royal badge]

A whatnow?

[rigid peak]

(he doesn't know about the arbites scoped shotgun)

[astral basin]

Steel rebar with some cement on the end
Thats the hammer you deserve

[astral laurel]

It's so much fun to countersnipe with a smoothbore

[abstract fiber]

shotgun lmg

[royal badge]

That sounds peak

[candid stratus]

she thinks that arbites are kinda lame anyway so i dont really look into their lore im talkin bout what we already got, current shotguns cracked

[royal badge]

I want a plasma pistol for vet and a flame pistol for zealot

[main zephyr]

when will they give us the heavy rock saw ogryns used in necromunda

[royal badge]

We don't even have the other type of shield ogryn use in regular 40k yet

[rigid peak]

Nah the sniper shotgun is a thing arbites actually use.

[main zephyr]

it is and its fun

the long barrel shotgun that arbites get has good range

[candid stratus]

well AAAB anyway, I just want my hive scum shit, i want all the salvaged/modified guns and scrap melee weapons

[royal badge]

I kinda wonder what generic weapons scum will be able to use

[fossil oasis]

Probably just the autoguns that the other rejects get access too

[astral laurel]

Probably the autoguns

[candid stratus]

Whatever we get I just hope we get new weapon skins that make em look grungier when it comes out, doubt it though

[acoustic pebble]

Autopistols

[fossil oasis]

Possibly also DB and Combat Shotgun

[royal badge]

Probably whatever's already shared between zealot and vet

[astral basin]

Needle gun

[candid stratus]

I need GRIMIER weapon skins, like that one lasgun skin where the things held together with fucking duct tape, give me MORE

[acoustic pebble]

Anything our grubby hands get ahold of

[astral laurel]

flails Gods I hate choking on my tea >.<

[royal badge]

I meant the existing weapons, not new stuff

[fossil oasis]

Yeah, probably not any of the Las weapons tho

Kinda hope they get the Heavy Eviscerator tbh

[royal badge]

Not being able to use the recon lasguns would be a shame

[acoustic pebble]

I am so sorry your tea cannot help. I know something that will
Hands over a stim

[candid stratus]

fuck recon lasgun

[royal badge]

Naahhhh thats firmly a zealot weapon like the relic blade

[astral basin]

Would be hilarious if hive scum got access to plasma gun bc
“Underworld supply caches”

[astral laurel]

Unless this can regrow half a tongue it won't help but I appreciate the offer.

[rigid peak]

Lasguns absolutely make it to the criminal underworld, it's the AK of human weapons.

[acoustic pebble]

Oh my stims can do whatever you'd like em to do huehuehue

[dense slate]

dueling sword was also a firm psyker weapon and look where it is now

[royal badge]

It fits the scum's main playstyle perfectly

[astral basin]

Dont you know? Stims and health pots can regrow limbs!

[royal badge]

That was before we got their psychic blade thingy

[acoustic pebble]

Nnnnaaaahhhhh. Akimbo guns

[astral laurel]

That worries me.

[fossil oasis]

Yeah true, but Arbites got the Crusher which was also firmly a Zealot weapon

[candid stratus]

well no because recon lasgun is for fucking LOSERS and scum is all about being super cool and NOT a massive smelly loser

[royal badge]

It's a rapid fire spray and pray gun like the braced autogun

[acoustic pebble]

Hey! I am a trusted Stim chemist!

[jaunty path]

I really wonder what Hive Scums voice sounds like

[acoustic pebble]

I know! That's why I'm so excited!!

[jaunty path]

It would be funny if one of the personalities actually had a soothing voice

[astral laurel]

I hope they get a Cockney accent complete with rhyming slang.

[fossil oasis]

An Aussie Accent might be good too ngl

[jaunty path]

Oh no

[acoustic pebble]

Definitely going to have an Australian accent, or a pirate accent

[astral laurel]

yeah! Aussie, Cockney, and disarmingly ASMR.

[royal badge]

One of them is just gonna be loose cannon with a fake mustache

[astral laurel]

Loose Cannon is Loose Cannon with a fake moustache.

[candid stratus]

please dont be stereotypically australian for the love of god please

[royal badge]

He does hive ganger shite in his off hours

[fossil oasis]

I feel like Loose Cannon would get along with the Hive Gangers.

[royal badge]

Oh absolutely

[fossil oasis]

I'm most looking forward to Arbites/Ganger dialogue tbh

[acoustic pebble]

It would be HILARIOUS if the Gangers just make fun of the Loose Cannon for not doing enough

[royal badge]

Bully and the gangers will do a lot of butting heads I reckon

[rigid peak]

Eh not sure, male loose cannon sounds like he's sarcastic and burying how he actually feels behind a wall, it does fall on occasion. Female loose cannon sounds genuinely spiteful. It's the tone.

[astral laurel]

It's important to remember that Hive Scum aren't criminals.

[acoustic pebble]

HAH. Mine is

[lethal solstice]

They literally are in this case?
They're all cartel members

[jaunty path]

but scum = bad :(

[astral laurel]

Imperium also bad

[jaunty path]

What no how?

[acoustic pebble]

Scum is more bad!

[royal badge]

You could just be the crackhead kind and not the shanking randoms for their pocket change kind

[jaunty path]

Crackheads can do this

[fossil oasis]

Some of them will be. Isn't water cartels gonna be a background option? Also water cartel markings on the outfit too

[astral laurel]

No idea!

[acoustic pebble]

Yep!

[royal badge]

Not all crackheads

[astral laurel]

I wonder how they'll get along with Zola

[lethal solstice]

Hank said that their replacement for their Crime or Precinct in character creation is their Cartel

[candid stratus]

No no, they are definitely criminals, they just arent convicted criminals like the rejects.

[outer bough]

people thinking that organised crime in the imperium is a bunch of crackheads is gonna get old really fast

[fossil oasis]

Oh that's quite cool.
So yeah they are all criminals then

[acoustic pebble]

They'll probably look up to her for escaping that life. Even becoming an Explicator in the inquisition is not an easy feat

[royal badge]

I mean they might be? They could end up getting the same prologue as the standard classes

[acoustic pebble]

If the Arbites got a different intro, I'm GUESSING so will the Gangers

[royal badge]

Maybe

[gloomy tartan]

Recruited from the water cartel maybe?

[royal badge]

I'm of the opinion that we should have gotten enforcers instead of arbites

[odd shadow]

Zola: Aw shiet here we go again

[acoustic pebble]

We're getting more than just the Water Cartel for choosing a gang

[royal badge]

Disgraced enforcers would have fit into the original story format more easily than arbites

[acoustic pebble]

Besides FUCK WATER CARTEL!!

[candid stratus]

Water cartel is only one of the options I would assume that the intro would involve the head honcho(s) cutting a deal with the higher ups on the morningstar, possibly being attacked during said deal and coming on board/offering their services.

[rigid peak]

Somewhat redundant.

[gloomy tartan]

We get told in story missions that the water cartel are feeding the enemy bad intel for us and that they are good fighters and fighting the corrupted forces actively like we are.

[odd shadow]

They probably mock him for joining the guard and serving

[royal badge]

I know there's the one psyker voice but loose canon operates in a similar capacity with gangers

[rigid peak]

Depends if male or female, male loose cannon jokes about deserting, female loose cannon seems like they're actually going to desert, again, delivery.

[royal badge]

I mean the shady stuff they get up to

[rigid peak]

Well sure but that's coping in-universe.

[acoustic pebble]

Water Cartel hive scum won't be happy to see Swagger I bet

[outer bough]

Cartels getting people into the guard is actually a big deal, and its why the guard has alot of gangs in it

they lean on planetary officials so their members get officer positions in the tithe

[astral laurel]

There's also the Sandfleas and Throne Street Regulars

[royal badge]

My point is story-wise it makes more sense for disgraced enforcers to be a class in a band of "rejects"

[acoustic pebble]

As long as one of the gangs are blue, I'll be EXTREMELY happy

[rigid peak]

"Look, you say they're damned, I believe it, the soul's your business, soldiering's mine, and I say, they're working together to knock your karkin' block off!"

[odd shadow]

I guess the meme where a crackheads fighting nurgles best soldiers is true then

[gloomy tartan]

Ooo so we got options options

[acoustic pebble]

Yep! More than that much from what I'm hearing

[odd shadow]

Looks like the God of Pestilences biggest threat is not hygiene but crackhead gangers

[royal badge]

I would have argued that arbites are erring too close to things like sororitas and officio assassinorum, but ogryn are also absolute powerhouses compared to a singular standard human lore-wise

[acoustic pebble]

Imagine one of the Gangers trying to recruit an Ogryn to a gang

[hollow pecan]

chat how we feel about the new class

[acoustic pebble]

CAN'T WAIT!!

[astral laurel]

I am hyped as fuck.

[hollow pecan]

hell yeah

[royal badge]

Idk I just think enforcers would have fit the game's setting more than arbites do

[acoustic pebble]

Arbites definitely fit tho

[astral laurel]

Gonna name mine Halftongue. On account of me IRL having... half a tongue.

[hollow pecan]

the police brutality class is funny though

[astral laurel]

IDONOTWANTTOHEAROFYOURBELOVED

[outer bough]

also a cartel which I need to reiterate are more involved in like organised crime (tithe disruption and the likes) are on rungs alot higher than normal street gangs in 40k

and are probably not sending some nobody bottom feeder to represent their interests with a faction that has the ability to ruin everything they have built (sometimes over thousands of years, some cartels dating back to a planets first colonisation)

also in alot of cases they control entire districts and keep the street gangs in check

[royal badge]

Sorta? It doesn't make a ton of sense for them to be mixed in with penal regiments in an inquisitor's warband

[acoustic pebble]

Inquisitors recruit many different groups to joining them. Some of them being Arbitrators, depends on the Inquisitor

[astral laurel]

I don't think Grendyl recruited Zoran and his Arbites

[hollow pecan]

I think they could reasonably fit a lot of things into Darktide with how stretchy warhammer lore is

[astral laurel]

I think they just kind of showed up like "We are here to reinstate the tithe. Assist us as our goals align."

[royal badge]

Idk i'm not super familiar with how arbites normally operate but this definitely doesn't seem like how they're normally utilized

[fossil oasis]

I'm pretty excited. Was hoping for AdMech but this still seems like it's gonna be pretty fun :3

[outer bough]

under normal circumstances what we are doing would entirely be their job

[jaunty path]

How can you know what they do when you don't

[royal badge]

They seemed most accurate with the launch being mostly teams of 4 arbites lmao

[outer bough]

they only mobalise in such a way to restore the tithe

[hollow pecan]

I was hoping for rat class but I think regardless a new class is sick asf

[twin flower]

Seeing a bunch of arby's during launch was pretty sick yeah

It felt like we actually got reinforced

[fossil oasis]

Yeah I feel like on a good day, the Adeptus Arbites and the Inquisition tolerate each other, and in this case, are working together because their goals align. Grendyl 100% did not recruit them

[outer bough]

well tbf i say that atoma is kind of well past that point its more at the point where there should be multiple regiments of guard on the planet

but we have reject penal legion, local arbites, a small inquisition warband, brahms voidsmen at arms, a single imperial guard regiment and the remains of one scout regiment

[gloomy tartan]

They just showed up like a dad with milk ?

[royal badge]

I don't think it makes absolutely no sense but enforcers would fit in more as rejects imo

[rigid peak]

I think we still have some PDF left?

[outer bough]

worth noting arbites arent rejects

[royal badge]

Right

[gloomy tartan]

They still take stims like us rejects tho

[outer bough]

Is that you Jurgen?

[gloomy tartan]

You still can’t have my epsilon-level leg limb augmetics by the way

[astral basin]

“Presence of mind”
They are using company resources
Telling them they have to use it
To fuck off with it

[gaunt wind]

Ah yes Necrons Thousand yard stare

[acoustic pebble]

Too late!
Injects

[silver mango]

The Omnissiah demands it

[humble laurel]

Nope just a practical person

[whole glade]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[royal badge]

Honestly you could probably just do traitor guard and dark mechanicus if you wanted to keep it simple

[lethal solstice]

You aren't winning this

He's just going to block you

[acoustic pebble]

Don't worry it's not addictive!

[gloomy tartan]

The Omnissiah gave me these legs but they can’t take it till I’m dead dammit!

[thick fog]

We need more traitor guards representation tbh rather than slop chaos marines

[whole glade]

Why not?

[somber stream]

Ehhhh, i don't give a shit tbh. It's all fun and games, it's not like i'm making money or publishing the thing anywhere else lmao

[humble laurel]

Whats there to add

[silver mango]

brandishes laspistol yet you say?

[acoustic pebble]

Because last time, Hadron sent a shitton of AdMechs to raid my supply

[thick fog]

Add the other 5th moebians

[royal badge]

Age of sigmar does chaos factions way better ngl. Don't like how chaos factions are done in 40k

[humble laurel]

They need a Space marine enemy boss but preferably a sorcerer/dark apostle tbh

[astral laurel]

They're using the world destroying plagiarism machine. Anyone in their right mind - which is not common in the modern age unfortunately - would refuse to use it.

[whole glade]

i may have...been there...

[acoustic pebble]

Don't worry, I have a Dark Eldar stim for ya (It's addictive as fuck)

[gloomy tartan]

Calm down skitarii unit - jamal put down the laspistol!

[acoustic pebble]

It's okay. I took your Air Fryers!

[royal badge]

Why the hell is every chaos unit in 40k under a "chaos space marines" faction

[lethal solstice]

Darktide isn't getting one unless GW forces fatsharks hand

[whole glade]

THOSE WHERE CHILDREN!

[astral laurel]

A company can't force someone to use genAI bullshit, especially off company time.

[acoustic pebble]

Get high on Chaos!!

[gloomy tartan]

Oh hi slany how goes the biomass hunt?

[acoustic pebble]

And they yearned for FREEDOM!!

[humble laurel]

Well then a Nurgle sorcerer or greater daemon would be nice

[astral laurel]

Furthermore, even if this nutmonger had a contractual obligation to use the fucking torment nexus, they had ZERO need to share it with us.

[astral basin]

Right. I need to stop engaging w folk on semantics tbh
More and more tired of the headache that spawns from it

[acoustic pebble]

Please (don't) be gentle

[gloomy tartan]

The fire witches of izalith are as chaotic as I get

[royal badge]

Lusting after slaanesh like it ain't just gonna be them flaying you alive to turn into a raincoat

[humble laurel]

Night Lords will do that with or without chaos anyway

[acoustic pebble]

Oooh new stim idea!

[somber stream]

Noise, move on 🤷‍♂️

[gloomy tartan]

A pimp coat

[whole glade]

Fair

[royal badge]

They're just straight villains

[astral laurel]

He likes the spider ladies.

[thick fog]

Slaanesh horror game go hard
Just M rated game

[acoustic pebble]

And now I made a toaster stim!!

[gloomy tartan]

They are tall

[gloomy tartan]

Also fire is cool

[humble laurel]

Thats Fabiulous Bile and he aint Slaneesh siimp

[astral laurel]

what fire are you talking about X>

[brazen pelican]

Spiders are cute. :3

[royal badge]

He refuses to believe it even exists lol

[silver mango]

Imagine a slaneeshi cultist trying to perfect the idea of boredom

[astral laurel]

ye

[astral basin]

Yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me

[acoustic pebble]

My fire stims

[glacial shoal]

I like spider ladies

[gloomy tartan]

The fire witches of izalith are iconic

[brazen pelican]

Never heard of. :<

[humble laurel]

Bro just dont wanna be a simp to a Galactic E-thot

[brazen pelican]

That is extremely insulting. Do go on. :3

[royal badge]

That's kinda the big thing with slaanesh. You delve further into deeper and sicker depravity because you grow bored and numb to everything else

[foggy fulcrum]

So are people still huffing the copium or has that finally died down?

[astral laurel]

Faction in Dark Souls 1. The Chaos Witches of Izalith. They're not evil, but when the First Flame began to fade, they tried to make a replacement and... created demons! Some of the witches even became demons.

[humble laurel]

Wdym do you get pleasure from the insults WTH

[royal badge]

abs

[gloomy tartan]

You need to look them up lol. Basically in dark souls when the fire was going to go out and end the age of gods and start the age of mankind the fire witch izalith tried to make a new fire and it was too chaotic and the chaos fire made demons and turned her and her witch homegirls into chaos fire spider lady’s but normal lady’s from the hips up

[silver mango]

Yeah but what if the cultist is trying to perfect the idea of "not feeling anything"

[brazen pelican]

Seems like a reasonable idea, tbh. :3

[rocky radish]

The emotional people have already rage quit

[foggy fulcrum]

Imagine.

[royal badge]

That's kinda nurgle's thing

[acoustic pebble]

I can make a stim for that

[humble laurel]

Ok i will but Maybe later

[gloomy tartan]

It’s sad seeing the chaos demons literaly go extinct in dark souls 3 they didn’t ask to be made and where persecuted non the less.

[silver mango]

No like an obsession to sensory deprivation

[astral laurel]

The reasonable idea was actually just letting the fire fade and letting the cycles of existence continue to iterate.

But no we have to end the fucking world by trying to keep the age of fire going indefinitely

[acoustic pebble]

Injects with insult stim

[foggy fulcrum]

From what I've seen on... literally everywhere darktide discussion exists the hive scum went over as well as a great unclean one showing up at the slaaneesh 'party'.

[royal badge]

Yeah, nurgle's blessing grants you an escape from all pain or suffering even as your body rots

[humble laurel]

Dont threaten them with a good time

[brazen pelican]

People don't like it when things change. :3

[acoustic pebble]

I must supply all my clients

[silver mango]

Inject yourself with stims of getting some bitches brobino

[humble laurel]

They dont adapt sadly thats why Imperium is so stagnant

[twin flower]

You got one that cures depression

[humble laurel]

Thats excellent service

[acoustic pebble]

My bitches stim works fine, But you're the exception

[brazen pelican]

The Imperium is kinda lame. At least with Slaanesh you'll have fun. :3

[royal badge]

Sensory deprivation sounds too pious, like something from encroaching ruin

[astral laurel]

No I won't.

[gloomy tartan]

The gods didn’t want the age of gods to end so after the fire witch izaliths plan fucked up and created the demon problem, Neto the god of death retreated to the dark, Seeth the naked no leg dragon started doing crystal magic experiments on people and animals in his tower, and gwyn the guy who throws lightning bolts and kills dragons said fuck it and sacrificed his soul to keep the fire burning longer, the undead curse starts and they convince new undead to sacrifice themself like gwyn did for ever until dark souls 3 happens

[rocky radish]

Eh. A few loud voices were wailing about it like it was the end of the world. Most people either wish it was something else, are fine with it, or both.

[acoustic pebble]

Injects with Therapy stim

[brazen pelican]

You got one to cure a fear of needles? :<

[royal badge]

A lot of people were just really hoping for a mechanicus character of some kind

[acoustic pebble]

Yes I do!

[gloomy tartan]

Dark souls was all about the end of things since the first game. Majestic things reduced to hollow shells of their former glory. Finding meaning in goals.

[acoustic pebble]

I am a man of the people (and Xenos)

[rocky radish]

Me too, but I'm still going to have fun with the new class. But FS better be really careful which class they choose next...

[astral laurel]

As someone with a phobia of needles who has had to have SO MANY NEEDLES, I can offer advice. If it's legitimate, I think my DMs are open?

[humble laurel]

Yeah I guess it’s never boring but Oh well I dont Want to be turned into a drug and snorted by some feminine daemon with her butt 💀

[gloomy tartan]

Needles are scary I can’t look when I get shots at the doctor

[astral basin]

The fires fading was the end of the world for them. They became weaker, and feared that the humans would usurp them just like they did the dragons
For all intents and purposes it WAS the end of the world for someone

[royal badge]

Necromunda hasn't been in the spotlight much recently so I can see why people were confused about a hive ganger, but it still fits the setting just fine

[acoustic pebble]

Being a ganger is awesome! I can make stims for days!!

[humble laurel]

Hive Gangs exist in almost all places that got humans and hive worlds so all good

[gloomy tartan]

Not to mention the dragon girl and her ice magic being so scary they have to make her escape to a painted world because ICE MAGIC THE ULTIMATE ENEMY OF FIRE

[brazen pelican]

I really hate needles. I can manage, barely. But it is managing. :>

[foggy fulcrum]

It definitely isn't a few. Just naming the usual places, steam forums, plebbit, /vg/, and discord has far more negative than positive. Funnily enough /vg/ was the only place I saw it even getting a little close to 50/50 positive/negative.

I've read the necromunda books, played hive wars when it came out, and even learned about the obscure tabletop gangs like the ratskins and read the comics about the Redeemer. Literally everything that is 'gang' related in 40k I've seen/read it. I genuinely don't think fatshark can replicate it.

[rocky radish]

I'm fine with needles. I used to be really into body piercing. To the point my body piercer told me I was going overboard

[astral laurel]

Yeah if you want some tips that might help, feel free to shoot me a message and I can offer some

[acoustic pebble]

I made a gummy to help with that

[humble laurel]

See, real exceptional Service

[gaunt wind]

I don’t get people saying Hive Scum doesnt fit, it’s not what I was hoping for but it absolutely fits

[gloomy tartan]

Whenver I have to get a shot with a needle at the doc I just pretend I’m gettin the captain America super soldier serum and look away when they do it

[brazen pelican]

I'll be fine, they're few and far between. But I appreciate the offer. ♥

[rocky radish]

Perhaps as someone who is new to the W40K world it's easier for me to accept whatever. I'm just here for fun

[astral laurel]

Okie doke

[acoustic pebble]

Madmechs are just angry their pick isn't next

[humble laurel]

True 💯

The haters just disappointed it’s not what they are hoping for I guess

[gloomy tartan]

That’s how I feel as someone who’s a noob to 40k I just love learning stuff

[royal badge]

I think we're lucky to get something as unique as the arbitrators and a more standard new class in the same damn year lmao

[acoustic pebble]

The best service FOR the best!

[astral basin]

I find it funny how anomalous the painted world is

[gloomy tartan]

Hey which chaos lord likes weed would it be nurgle?

[silver mango]

I'm still looking for my Emperor's mercy pill

[sweet karma]

The only people I've seen that are positive about it are in this discord. Def not end the world but I think the common consensus is wishing for something different (although many of those wishes are impossible like squats or ratlings.)

[acoustic pebble]

Injects you with Bullet

[silver mango]

Slaneesh

[brazen pelican]

People who got upset are far more likely to voice it than people that were a bit disappointed or are okay with it. :3

[humble laurel]

Drugs and whatever substance used for pleasure is definitely Slaanesh

[royal badge]

A mechanicus class needs much more unqiue character models, weapons, and gameplay so I can see why we aren't getting one yet

[rocky radish]

This discord is my only window into the community

[acoustic pebble]

Slaanesh already bought all my weed stims

[silver mango]

Yet

[brazen pelican]

It was suppsoed to be a secret. :<

[gaunt wind]

I was on the ad mech Hopium train too but it is what it is, better to move on I’ll be buying the scum to support the devs and because I want the next class to be ad mech lol

[acoustic pebble]

Don't worry, I have like 500 crates of the stuff

[royal badge]

I'd rather it be done right than done poorly 🤷‍♂️

[humble laurel]

They bought it to cook some plague ahh weed where it can corrupt via the week smoke

[somber stream]

Good lol, don't bother with other 40K community, this is the most friendly place i've been to, out of all the 40k servers

[brazen pelican]

Not anymore I'm interested in aqcuiring these. :>

[gloomy tartan]

The gods all cannonically fear her that’s why she’s the final big bad in dark souls 3 slave knight gael is alive when everything else has turned to a flat plane of existence with only ash and the dead that he kills trying to find blood from a ashen one to finish the new painted world. Gael endured the end of everything because he wants to protect the dragon girl. And it’s all because her ice magic is such a legit threat to the flame

[acoustic pebble]

If you want, I can make an AdMech stim for you!

[brazen pelican]

Heard Space Marine 2 discord is nice.

[glacial shoal]

I hope everyone is having agood night btw, yall are cool

[royal badge]

My local hobby store has a discord server and they're very friendly and chill

[acoustic pebble]

Usual drop-off spot. I got you

[humble laurel]

Likewise

[somber stream]

Oh i don't play the thing so never been there, good to know!

[gloomy tartan]

Hey wtf are those little pug sized Nids called?

[acoustic pebble]

Have a good night!

[brazen pelican]

I was not serious, just making sure. It's a hellhole. :>

[rocky radish]

That pfp is epic

[agile oasis]

beats some sm2 players hating anything non-imperium and gladius discord deadass just ignoring blatant racism and other kinds of bigotry

[brazen pelican]

Rippers?

[somber stream]

Small and localized ones tend to be so. I'm talking about big ones like Astra Militarum and the like. Mod went crazy over there

[royal badge]

Nematodes /s

[humble laurel]

We definitely need some Heretic Astartes cosmetics packs

[foggy fulcrum]

This sounds like huffing copium given how overwhelmingly negative nearly all places discussion for darktide happens. I think scum/ganger could be cool if someone OTHER than fatshark was at the helm or if GW was standing behind them with a nail bat like they did with arbites.

Necromunda has so much interesting lore, gangs, and additions that could be pulled from ranging from corpsegrinders to redeemer cults but it also is older and has stuff I cannot really see anyone given company track record.

[gloomy tartan]

Is that what they’re called? The tiny swarm ones

[acoustic pebble]

That's pretty cool! They need a stim guy?

[royal badge]

It's 50/50 on any given astra militarum fan being a literal nazi unfortunately (I say this as a militarum player)

[gloomy tartan]

Yeah it was rippers lol thank you

[brazen pelican]

I don't have a need to cope, thanks. :3

[lethal solstice]

Gw is standing behind them with the bat, they always are

[brazen pelican]

Happy to help. :3

[acoustic pebble]

Jokes on you, I enjoy the concept of the Ganger!

[rocky radish]

Can you drop the "huffing copium" accusations? Just because someone doesn't hate the things you hate doesn't make their opinion invalid

[gloomy tartan]

Rippers are so cool lmao little pug sized phirana. Ngl a lot of nid designs are very aesthetically pleasing aliens to shoot and scream at

[acoustic pebble]

I actually have a pet ripper. His name Krell

[astral basin]

Meanwhile admech is such a niche crowd we got a large wave of them crashing out at the mention of a possibility

[humble laurel]

Ganger is a cool concept hopefully the dlc classes also get more cosmetic bundles to diversify them even more

[royal badge]

My opinions are correct and fact based and yours are shit and based on feelings

[gloomy tartan]

What’s the nid that’s as big as a battle tank again? Ima look that mf up

[brazen pelican]

Carnifex?

[gloomy tartan]

That shit sounds scary

[royal badge]

Most of the cool weapons I see from necromunda look like they should be ogryn weapons

[lethal solstice]

Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down

[rocky radish]

Yours seem to be based on what others think. And the average person is an absolute fucking moron

[brazen pelican]

Latin for executioner. :3

[royal badge]

I was joking champ

[acoustic pebble]

They are. Wouldn't recommend petting unless you feed it

[humble laurel]

Gangers is fine I like playing as them in the Necromunda video game I like the House Escher a lot

Hopefully we will get some Necromunda cosmetics bundles for the Ganger

[foggy fulcrum]

I don't hate the idea because I've seen the good gang stuff that dates back to the very early parody editions of 40k. It has potential but it'd be like getting a munitorum order correctly sent within a 300 year time window. Not likely.

[gloomy tartan]

Dog it’s so fucking aggressive looking

[foggy fulcrum]

It's gonna be really hard to replicate the better parts of gangers in lore (which is mostly just necromunda).

[gloomy tartan]

It’s like a fucking praying mantis trex
