We are 4 people

#

Trying to kill 1 chaos space marine is like sending a psyker to see the emperor

#

Why would it call 30 guys an extermination lmao

crisp heath
#

That took whole regiments to kill

plush mason
#

where is this from?

crisp heath
#

it's one of the skins in the store

plush mason
#

what store?

crisp heath
#

it says the pattern was common as a reward thingy amongst regiments which participated in the extermination of said space marines in the exchange armory, saw it as sharpshooter, next time I'm in I'll take a screenshot

#

Either way, chaos space marines aren’t easy to kill, yes they’re mortal, but compared to 4 people that aren’t genetically modified by any means, it’s impossible

plush mason
#

ok let me say this again. the only reason there will not be any space marines in darktide in any way shape or form is because fatshark has said they will not be adding them in

rich sail
#

especially nurgle space marines the beefiest and tankiest of them all

plush mason
#

there is no lore reason why there will not be a CSM fight in this game, it is purely due to the fact that fatshark doesnt want them in darktide so there

broken zenith
#

I'd like to see a Blight Drone boss

plush mason
#

yall have beat the horse out of existence, not even the crease spot remains

rich sail
#

its bcs the game is specifically made with the normal lowly humans perspective in mind, having a lowly guardsmen preacher unsanctioned psyker and an ogryn mow down hordes of enemies and kill beast of nurgles is already a hugeeeee stretch

crisp heath
#

An ogryn would be the only thing capable of killing a chaos space marine

plush mason
#

and the psyker

crisp heath
#

But it will be a tough fight

#

Psyker it depends

#

Did they even say no space marine as an enemy boss or did they say no space marine player characters cause those are very different things

#

Psykers can kill space marines, if the space marine is dumb and doesn’t kill the psyker first

where

#

I like space marines as much as the next guy, but I do agree with farsharks decision

plush mason
#

same

rich sail
#

nah i like it this way space marines are kinda boring ngl, guardsmen are the most interesting trhere is a lot of things you can do with guardsmen bcs they are vastly different in tactics and looks based on where they come from

crisp heath
#

Yeah, a plague marine boss would be cool to fight, lore wise? I doubt we’d win as 4 people fighting a plague marine, if it’s anything better than a plague marine, say a champion, plaguecaster, blightlord or deathshroud, it’s a definite loss

plush mason

#

I mean, space marines have really good lore and are interesting to me, especially in the Horus Heresy where they act more human than the way they are now, but I do agree all the basic human type stuff is a bit more interesting in comparison

#

Horus Heresy books are peak space marine lore imo

#

I still think the individuals we are playing are so individually exceptional that they stand a chance against foes that should be above their weight class, particularly the guardsman and the zealot are very incredible for what they are supposed to be, like just maybe possibly, by the skin of their teeth, a sanc psyker and a particularly dangerous ogryn could do the stuff we do in this game, but a standard guardsman and a crazy guy who loves the emperor too much probably isn't pulling this shit off

It could easily be justified if they wanted to but they decided it didn’t fit the tone or the scope of the game

It’s important but not that important

I feel like space marines of either side showing up would escalate it too much

Space Marines can die like anyone else yeah

Hey, don’t insult the scarab, Necrons be really strong

Those bugs are more advanced than almost any faction in the galaxy

I love the scarabs

Unironically those bugs could take on most things in the 40k fiction with a big enough swarm

#

necrons enslaved literal gods lol

crisp heath
#

Then there’s a Tyranid warrior casually slicing a space marine in half like butter

#

No, space marines aren’t immortal, but everything that kills a space marine are 100x worse than what we face in darktide

hormagaunt best bug :3

plush mason

#

Tyranids are absolutely insanely strong

#

they said here there's not gonna be a regular bolter, just the heavy bolter and there is a regular bolter and not a heavy bolter...

#

And not to be underestimated

rich sail
#

its not a regular bolter#

misty dove
rich sail
#

its the human scaled down version inquisitors/arbites use

crisp heath
#

Bolters for space marines would break every bone in your body

#

If a human used it

dusk patrol
crisp heath
#

It’s why there’s human sized boltguns

dusk patrol
#

The Beast of Nurgle tbh is the main like

crisp heath
#

The Beast of Nurgle I’m surprised made it in

#

Because those things are dangerous as hell

Spacemarines are immortal, just not invincible

Immortal is dying of old age

Oh, got it mixed up

Beast of Nurgle gave me jumpscare

wasn't expecting BoN really

I feel like Genestealer Cults are a good way to go in a hive city

I do like the idea of the whole planet increasingly going to shit, in the midst of the nurglite crises, a space hulk crashes into the planet, orks pouring out and a gsc cult springing up from it

misty dove
#

Feel like that would just get silly

plush mason
#

yeah

crisp heath
#

but its 40k...

#

I feel like just Genestealer cults would make sense

#

They hide in hive cities often

I like the human vs human aspect of darktide currently

hearty bluff
#

Genestealers would be quite fun to fight, reminds me of space hulk a wee bit

broken zenith
#

GSC cool

hearty bluff
#

Only that you're a bit more squishy than terminators.

crisp heath

I feel like a Genestealer would be a mini boss

And a magus or primus would be a main boss

I got the new GSC codex for $40 because the store owner bought too many lol

nice

plush mason
crisp heath
#

I mean, we have the thunder hammer, a bolter type gun, chainswords, power swords, force swords, force staves, and a power maul the ogryn uses

plush mason
#

but like. none of those are space marine specific weapons

crisp heath
#

The only ones were missing are heavy bolters, power axes, and lightning claws

#

What space marine specific weapons you mean?

broken zenith
#

I'd like to see Accatran pattern missile launcher

#

and lascutter

crisp heath
#

Like the Lascannon?

#

We have plasma guns too, and chainaxes

#

lascutter would be a melee weapon or a very close range ranged weapon?

plush mason
crisp heath
#

We don’t have a plasma pistol

broken zenith
#

lascutter would be a short ranged beam weapon, it was counted as nominally melee weapon on TT, but it was a very short ranged laser beam weapon practically.

crisp heath
#

grav weapons are near sm exclusive, almost

#

I think

#

probably mechanicus has them too I guess

crisp heath
plush mason
#

yes

celest dome
crisp heath
#

Graviton weaponry is use by mostly the imperium

#

storm bolters have been in guardsman hands before, as pintle mounted weapons and yarrick ofc

celest dome
#

The Frost weapon are supposed to be exclusive to them

plush mason
crisp heath
#

The ONLY space marine weaponry that I think are exclusive to space marines because of its rarity

#

Volkite weaponry

#

But volkite weaponry is insanely rare and strong

celest dome
#

Stalker Bolter ? Much worse than a Stake Bolter

celest dome
crisp heath
#

Ever since the horus heresy, volkite has seen a decrease in production

celest dome
#

Like they have it more than the SM

crisp heath
#

Even in Admech volkites are rare

#

Because they make it

plush mason
#

a stalker bolter is just a DMR conversion of the normal SM bolter lol

crisp heath
#

You realize Admech makes EVERYTHING right?

#

The Admech makes space marine armor for christs sake

#

They make everything the imperium has

#

It was belisarius cawl who made primaris marines a thing

#

Admech have everything because they make and produce it all on forge worlds

#

Including knights

dusk patrol
#

They’re slowly starting to phase Volkite back in for VIPs

crisp heath
#

So nothing is space marine exclusive

#

Yeah, volkites are making a resurgence

celest dome
#

The ONLY space marine weaponry that I think are exclusive to space marines because of its rarity
Used more by the Admech

dusk patrol
#

They never lost the ability to make it, it’s just super expensive and fragile

#

It was phased out after the Heresy due to that

crisp heath
#

Yup

celest dome
#

And need special care

dusk patrol
#

And it was already being phased out during the GC

crisp heath
#

The Horus Heresy caused a technological setback to the imperium

#

Never have they lost their ability to make it

#

Just production slowing down more and more

plush mason
storm jungle
# crisp heath If a human used it

Nah, that lore is just from an old Dark Heresy entry that was famous for being super Marine wanky by the writer. Humans can use astartes bolters just fine, they are just way too clunky and big.

#

the bone-break things makes no sense since a human bolter is more or so the same thing with a small caliber KEK

dusk patrol
#

Also most of the RPG lore is very outdated, it’s not all wrong or anything

#

But it’s old

storm jungle
#

^

dusk patrol
#

So a lot is less relevant

storm jungle
#

Yeah the bone break thing is like WAY back in the mid 2000's

crisp heath
#

Ah, I just remember that old lore then

storm jungle
#

The Wrath & Glory RPG more or so makes marine and human bolters the same stat

#

iirc its only the Primaris boltgun that has bigger stats

dusk patrol
#

I wish we’d get more FFG RPGs SadgeCry

crisp heath
#

Bolters casually firing rocket propelled grenades

dusk patrol
#

I won’t pretend all of the RPG systems themselves were well done

crisp heath
dusk patrol
#

But goddamn was the lore great

crisp heath
#

I guess the only space marine exclusive weaponry are the primaris boltguns

#

Which I haven’t seen or heard anyone else use

#

Because they are for primaris

#

I am trying to figure out what caliber and force would be needed to break someones bones from recoil alone, cause I'm pretty sure you can shoulder fire a 20mm without breaking anything unless you're particularly sickly or frail, or perhaps holding it in a compromising manner, not that you would want too regardless

dusk patrol
#

It doesn’t make any sense

#

It’s a fundamental misunderstanding of how recoil works

crisp heath
#

You can dislocate

dusk patrol
#

Especially with how heavy Bolter guns are

crisp heath
#

I mean, recoil from certain guns can dislocate bones

dusk patrol
#

The issue would not be the recoil

crisp heath
#

tfw the bolter dislocates every bone in your body

dusk patrol
crisp heath
#

They are

#

I mean, have you seen the krieg guardsmen model with a bolter?

dusk patrol
#

But 40k writers don’t shoot guns or understand recoil

crisp heath
#

They put a STOCK on that bolter lmao

storm jungle
broken zenith
#

Warwick Kinrade's descriptions in IA were better than that of the GD and SG teams I'd say.

storm jungle
#

"You dont get your shoulder dislocated when firing a 50. cal, a bolter is the same deal, end of subject"

dusk patrol
#

Basically

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

It’s such a big fucking gun too

#

Way bigger and heavier than most anything we make irl

storm jungle
#

Yeah like

plush mason
#

plus most bolt rounds have like less than half the normal amount of propellant in them so they shouldnt be able to make much recoil even without the weight of the gun itself

crisp heath
#

A bolter will be super fucking heavy and an inconvenience to carry around if it wasn’t for the human sized one

storm jungle
#

at WORST you'll get a super fucking stiff shoulder

worn pagoda
#

Primaris is an insult to the lore. To think that anyone, especially a tech heretic, could improve upon the Emperor's work and smile about it to a Primarch.

dusk patrol
#

Carrying it around being an issue? Sure

#

But recoil?

storm jungle
#

it was all the emperor's work

#

when uh

#

you know

celest dome
#

The Emperor didn't say no

storm jungle
#

he literally stole all that knowledge from other people

dusk patrol
#

He literally just used the Emperors notes

storm jungle
#

^

crisp heath
#

A space marine sized boltgun would be too much for a human to carry around

dusk patrol
#

The stuff he added was already planned

celest dome
#

And anyway the Emperor can go eat dirt

crisp heath
#

Which is why there’s travel sized bolters

dusk patrol
#

It just didn’t make it to the final product

#

Due to time constraints.

plush mason
#

hell is it still canon that the name "adeptus astartes" comes from the chick that oversaw most of the space marine program?

dusk patrol
#

Yup

#

Amar Astarte

#

#

Something like that

An out of lore explanation for a lore issue. Totally fair.

Would still have prefered that Arkhan took the name Land because he found/made those rather than the other way around

He definitely won but it’s still an impressive feat that they forced him to blow up the planet considering the odds. It was a good trade for him but it’s still a small victory and the whole “Planet broke before the Guard did” is pretty accurate, especially considering they were still fighting in voidshields months after the planet got broken.

Yes they did, he literally had to retreat and blow the planet up

Yeah, and they held on the shattered remains after.

He failed to take the planet

He didnt

dusk patrol

He wanted to

Chaos propaganda obviously

crisp heath
#

I like how Typhus was there with the Terminus Est and even he still lost

#

So if the guard were fighting until the planet broke, does that not mean the planet broke before the guard did?

#

Typhus is amazing though

#

Am I missing something

storm jungle
#

He literally blew the planet up because the Eye of Terror was shrinking due to necron interference. The guard were pretty much broken at the end of the day

It doesn't matter, the planet still broke before the guard. It's the literal meaning of the phrase. They guard kept fighting when the planet didn't, irregardless of if it mattered or not. Sorry that somehow will not penetrate your cranium G

CHAPTER EIGHT

POINT 395, MYRAK FRONT

Valentin’s Hellhound squadron was still half a day away from the Elysion Fields when the Marauder destroyer swept low over
the ground. Four more followed and the last one gave them a simple salute as it waggled its wings and swept on southwards, weapon mounts fully loaded with hunter-killer missiles. Valentin couldn’t remember the last time he’d seen air support. ‘Just look at that,’ he said. ‘Where the hell did they come from?’

‘I don’t care,’ his driver said. ‘As long as they put those weapons to use.’

As the roar of the Marauders diminished, they could hear the vox playing Flower of Cadia. ‘Hush!’ Valentin said, and turned the volume up.

It was Creed’s voice, at last.

‘People of Cadia.’

‘Shut up!’ Valentin punched his gunner and the Hellhound slammed to a halt.

‘You have done all that I have asked, and more. You have driven the enemy back. You have won the battle for Cadia.’ There was a pause. ‘You have won, but it is my duty, my heavy duty to tell you all that Cadia, our home, is doomed. Not for lack of courage and strength on your part. You have won the battle. Your honour is unblemished.

‘You might think that this is a defeat for us. But it is not. I assure you. Preparations are being made now. After this message, there will follow a broadcast announcing the evacuation zones where landers will come to lift you all from the planet. I repeat. This is not defeat. The fight will go on. We shall carry the flame of Cadia back to the Imperium. We shall fight to defend Holy Terra itself.’

At the end of the broadcast a different voice – strained with emotion – recounted a list of evacuation sites. Valentin’s crew listened in numb silence.

The list started at the beginning again. It repeated three times before anyone spoke.

🤷‍♀️

Hope Creed's speech helps at least lmao

This is before the blackstone fortress collision

plush mason
#

well the guard never broke so

storm jungle
#

You retreat when you are broken

plush mason
#

no

stark frigate
storm jungle
#

Creed basically doesnt want more needless deaths

storm jungle
#

He basically more or so sugarcoats it heavily

#

he just cant tell his men that they are being slaughtered

#

thats not uh

#

you know

#

good for morale

plush mason
#

the battle in space had been lost so he ordered a retreat and evacuation

hollow lantern
plush mason
#

"break" implies a rout not an ordered retreat btw

stark frigate
#

"we havent lost the battle and we're still fighting, but the planets karked it, get the fuck off it so you dont waste your life, we need you to keep fighting off-world" basically

storm jungle
#

the chaos fleet is massive compared to the loyalist one

#

they basically more or so just didnt stop coming

plush mason
#

ye

storm jungle
#

even the Phalanx had to take the survivors and leave otherwise it was gonna get turned into scrap

plush mason
#

as i said

#

the battle in space was lost

storm jungle
#

also man

#

I cant believe

#

they included france in there

#

a bit of a low blow KEK

plush mason
storm jungle
#

Too many france surrender/retreat jokes

plush mason
#

thanks to ww2 its literally all anyone remembers them for

storm jungle
plush mason
#

mfw when imperial france was so powerful the russian tsar said "we are but babies in the hands of a giant" and now all anyone remembers is france getting its ass kicked in ww2

#

but yeah i dont see anything that says the guard broke at cadia as there is no talk of a rout afaik

#

"break" means only one thing when talking about armies

#

and a retreat and a rout are two very different things

tulip sand
#

Cadia was a goodwill gesture by the imperium towards chaos

plush mason
#

nah the imperium got its ass beat at cadia

tulip sand
#

I thought it was fighting for centuries

plush mason
#

its just there is no evidence that any of the ground forces on cadia where broken before the black stone fort crashed home

tulip sand
#

Hardly an ass whoopin when you consider that chaos forces (specifically chaos space marines) probably have a low rate of replenishment

celest dome
#

Phyric victory for chaos

plush mason
#

ye

#

it cost them a shit ton

celest dome
#

Loosing Cadia was well worth the loss of manpower

#

Cadia protected a great area

tulip sand
#

But then didnt the primarch come back

rustic spruce
#

Cadia falling caused big e to start moving

celest dome
#

And now, the Chaos hordes are much more able to travel

#

Only 1 for the IoM

plush mason
tulip sand
#

How many of those black forts are there

plush mason
#

like 12 iirc

storm jungle
#

a LOT

celest dome
#

A few

tulip sand
#

Lmao

storm jungle
#

Its 12 atm but uh

#

the lore basically says there are a lot more

#

they are just unfound

tulip sand
#

Just like imperium worlds

rustic spruce
#

Does abaddon have 3 of them?

plush mason
#

lol

storm jungle
tulip sand
#

Guys this world is CRITICAL to the imperium

#

It CANNOT fall

storm jungle
#

he gave one of them to Huron Memeheart

#

it was a wedding gift

plush mason
#

lol

storm jungle
#

this isnt a joke he actually did

tulip sand
#

Okay it falls anyways and nothing changes but anyways this OTHER world though, its really important

storm jungle
#

you understand this universe already

plush mason
storm jungle
#

Oh yeah it was

#

but like

#

his real surname is Blackheart

tulip sand
#

I mean i kind of got the gist

storm jungle
#

so about as memey

rustic spruce
#

What does abaddon’s sword do

storm jungle
#

Its the daemon that was born from the first murder

#

it is basically shapeless

atomic pelican
#

Wants to murder the emperor so BAD

#

It almost did in the webway

storm jungle
#

^

#

Abaddon just forced it into a sword shape

tulip sand
#

But also isnt the primarch who came back believing in science

#

And also what are primaris marines, I know they arent a chapter

storm jungle
#

Yeah but imagine walking into the Vatican and saying their faith is false

#

they arent really gonna listen to you

#

Bring Jaghatai back GW

arctic talon

I mean

chilly creek
#

GW needs to sell more models

arctic talon
#

They do have some new tech

tulip sand

What the heck bruh

rustic spruce
#

Everybody loves painting white scars

arctic talon
#

But it’s mostly enhanced versions of old tech

#

Or just worse versions of old tech

#

Cawls volkite 💀

plush mason
#

lol

tulip sand
#

So no one researches anything then

arctic talon
#

I mean

#

They do research things

tulip sand
#

Even with the primarch leading the imperium

chilly creek
#

Sounds like heratek

plush mason
#

innovation is tech-heresy for most of the admech sadly

tulip sand
#

Like wouldnt he have some influence and arent primarchs good public speakers

storm jungle
#

yeah but

dusk patrol
#

Not all innovations

storm jungle
#

we are talking about the entire galaxy here

dusk patrol
#

It’s just a slow process

#

Typically

tulip sand
#

Ye but he only needs to focus on mars and earth

celest dome
#

It's knida like the Dwarfs in Warhammer fantasy

dusk patrol
#

Their ships have a evolved and advanced a ton over the years for example

tulip sand
#

Since mars is the research hub place

dusk patrol
#

It’s just it takes forever for approval

tulip sand
#

Oh lmao

dusk patrol
#

And it’s slow to make them on top of that

plush mason
#

also rowboat cant afford to shake up the imperium to much rn. it needs to be stable if it is going to survive

tulip sand
#

Rowboat?

#

Why is the imperium shaky rn

#

Or is it always shaky

rustic spruce
#

The emperor only ever told them to not go into certain research, so how did it escalate into technological stagnation

tulip sand
#

Why is it especially shaky rn

tulip sand
plush mason
tulip sand
#

Oh

#

So half the imperium is chaos

rustic spruce
#

Necron need to construct additional pylons

tulip sand
#

Ohh or do you mean half the imperium is cut off

plush mason
#

and Rowboat is a meme name for the Primarch Robutae Gilliman the dude you are talking about

tulip sand
#

Mans name is robutae lmaoo

plush mason
#

im sure i butchered it

tulip sand
#

Okay so rob leads half the imperium

#

Im guessing they cant communicate etc with the other half

plush mason
#

ye and the other half is more or less lost

#

overrun with chaos and xeno forces

tulip sand
#

Thats kinda huge actually

#

Not just muh essential manufactorum

plush mason
#

ye and thats why he cant afford to make to many changes to the imperium rn

tulip sand
#

Do you think they will try to reclaim the other half of the imperium

plush mason
#

im sure they will

tulip sand
#

Or is it straight up impossible to cross rn

shadow plover
#

the last large story expansion for the tabletop was about the Nachmund gauntlet which basically is the only place to cross to the other side safely

#

there are ways to get across but it's very risky

tulip sand
#

Nachmund

#

Where can i read abt this

shadow plover
#

sources are below

tulip sand
#

My understanding was that rob came back and like enlightened the imperium and the indomitus crusade was him going and fixing the worlds

#

Thx

plush mason
#

yeah nothing so grand or messiah like thankfully

rustic spruce
#

I want a lore battle where every faction shows up, a big ol murder pit

#

I find it hilarious that the only faction to ever really use submarines is the orks

dusk patrol
#

Vigilus was basically that

#

I think almost every faction was represented or most

#

There’s a few other Warzones which are similar

swift hound
#

are there any tyranid chaos war in lore?

dusk patrol
#

Fall of Shadowbrink

swift hound
#

thank you

#

wait... nid is more powerful than chaos?

rustic spruce
#

Most of the time tyranid and chaos just opt to avoid each other since neither really gain anything from each other

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

rustic spruce
#

Nids can’t eat daemons and daemons can’t get souls from nids

dusk patrol
#

But in this case the Nids were able to starve the chaos incursion of its warp energy basically

rustic spruce
#

Shadow over the warp babyyyy

dusk patrol
#

The Shadow in the Warp helps a lot with that stuff

swift hound
#

can nurgle affect nid?

dusk patrol
#

And they don’t benefit Chaos at all

dusk patrol
#

It’s variable tbh

swift hound
#

wow

#

i just read some lore and they say nid are psyker

rustic spruce
#

Nids also tend to avoid necrons for similar reasons

swift hound
#

so i wanna know chaos ever fight nid to corrupt them

rustic spruce
#

Nids can’t be corrupted

dusk patrol
#

Not that I’m aware of

rustic spruce
#

Since they’re a hive mind

swift hound
#

so nid chaos and necron avoid eachother?

rustic spruce
#

And if one leaves the mind i’m pretty sure it rapidly starts to break down or go feral

swift hound
#

all nid psyker power come from queen right?

#

or queen is just part of hivemind too

plush mason
rustic spruce
#

Zoanthropes can be produced the same as other nids

#

One time a singular zoanthrope ate an eldar infinity circuit

#

Took out an entire eldar crafteworld

swift hound
#

oof

#

wait nid travel in warp right?

rustic spruce
#

Nah nids don’t use the warp

hollow gulch
#

No. More of a space warp weird stuff.

rustic spruce
#

It’s half the reason they don’t eat things faster

stark frigate
#

But no, they dont use the warp

swift hound
#

so nid just fly around eat thing?

hollow gulch
#

Basically

stark frigate
#

Yes, they're boring

#

And I'll die on this hill

rustic spruce
#

The nids just want a little nibble

stark frigate
#

You can sum up Nid lore on your fucking palm

swift hound
#

but no one can make them extinct?

stark frigate
#

Boring ass faction

plush mason
#

the nids are just hungry bois

stark frigate
rustic spruce
#

The nids we’ve seen in 40k aren’t even the main fleet

hollow gulch
#

They don't really bother the Necrons because Necrons aren't edible and tomb worlds tend to be low on biomass...and the Necrons aren't generally interested in them as a result. Chaos is a bit more interesting but daemons are equally indigestible and all those warp mutations tend to result in indigestion.

rustic spruce
#

They’re the scouting party

swift hound
#

nid cant effect by warp?

#

even they are psyker?

plush mason
swift hound
#

oh

#

just like mass effect reaper

hollow gulch
#

Ehh, they seem to be resistant to it. No individuality to seduce thanks to the Hive Mind and their genetics are already so whacked that you really can't tell a mutated Tyranid from a 'normal' one.

plush mason
#

ye

rustic spruce
#

The swarmlord is a special nid

#

Only one of him can exist at a time

hollow gulch
#

At least, the survivors have only ever reported one...not sure why you'd think two would leave any.

swift hound
#

im surprise khrone didnt find them entertain

hollow gulch
#

Bloodshed without rage. Where's the fun in that?

rustic spruce
#

Nids make sure there’s nothing left to do war

plush mason
hearty bluff
#

As for the question about Tyranids and the warp, as far as I can remember the Tyranids cast a shadow in the warp through the way the hive mind communicates.

rustic spruce
#

A desolate rock makes a boring battleground

swift hound
#

so chaos god cant even detect them?

hearty bluff
#

Think of it like multiple people being on the same radio frequency and clogging it up with pure garbage.

rustic spruce
#

Shout out to the time Ghazghkull cut his way out of a mawloc

hollow gulch
#

They can probably perceive the shadow in the warp the same way a mortal psyker can.

#

Alright, maybe not exactly the same way, since that often involves the psyker's head exploding but you know what I mean.

swift hound
#

oof

plush mason
#

you ever seen what chaff does to radar? i imagine the shadow in the warp is a lot like that

hearty bluff
#

^

plush mason
#

just one giant amorphous blob rather than individual signals you can clearly see and track

hearty bluff
#

It basically calms warm storms, drives pyskers insane and basically stops daemonic incursion

plush mason
#

it also makes warp navigation and communication all but impossible

hearty bluff
#

Which would make sense to prevent any imperial forces retreating.

plush mason
#

yup

rustic spruce
#

I wonder what would happen in a fight between the thousand sons and the nids

plush mason
#

and prevent help from reaching the world

swift hound
#

so nid is blob of hungry jammer

plush mason
#

yup

hearty bluff
#

The nids are basically pacman

swift hound
#

lol

#

whoa

#

FALL OF SHADOWBRINK 4 chaos god fight nid?

#

lol

dusk patrol
#

4 of their greater daemons

#

But yes

#

It was a quartet

broken echo
#

Something I'd love to see happen in the 40k setting is the adpetus mechanicus splitting into a third group. The Adeptust mechanicus (loyalists), the dark mechanicum (traitors) and a third which believe the omnissiah isn't the emperor nor a warp entity, but believe their machine god is the void dragon.

dusk patrol
#

So this has been “attempted” but the issue is the Ad Mech is aware of how much they need the Imperium

swift hound
#

didnt they too busy try to find answer for everything?

dusk patrol
#

So whenever rumblings of that viewpoint come around, it gets squashed because they know civil war is a bad plan

#

It’s not an uncommon idea in the Ad Mech

#

But their leadership is smart enough to see that convictions don’t provide resources or allow their worlds to function

broken echo
dusk patrol
#

So technically we don’t even know

#

It’s not a confirmed thing

#

It’s a theory

broken echo
#

I can imagine some probably speculate their god is connected to the necrons but I can just imagine what would happen if they learned of the void dragons existence. I wonder how the necrons would react if a void dragon splinter group of the adpetus mechanicus formed. Probably not happy.

rough oar
#

The omnissiah is the Emperor. Why would you believe anything else?

broken echo
#

suuurree ||hides "heresy"||

#

Anything else is heresy

Both.

But I do have to wonder what a tech priest worshiping the void dragon would look like. I wonder what their main colour would be

Green? Red? Maybe something new (instead of using typical necron and mechanicus colours).

rough oar
#

Ash color from being disintegrated

plush mason
#

lol

broken echo
opaque whale
#

iirc nids had necron munchies too but im like 30% certain about that

storm jungle
#

Nids mostly avoid Necrons due to there being nothing to gain from their battles basically.

#

Half the fun of de-terraforming/eating a planet is its populace, when you are made from literal living hard metal thats kind of a problem for the Nids

plush mason
#

yeah nids can eat metal but they dont get much if any biomass from it iirc

#

unless them eating the metals of the worlds they consume has been retconned recently

crisp heath
#

Is the emperor aware of what’s going on outside the throne?

plush mason
#

iirc yes but he just doesnt give a shit anymore

#

all he cares about is ending chaos

I can see big E destroying chaos and just vaporising afterwards

big e would gladly kill all life in the galaxy if he could just to end chaos

hearty bluff
#

Tbh I can see that being the only way to win against them

plush mason
#

ye but it shows how all that BS about making a better future for humanity was just that, bullshit

#

or at the very least has become bullshit

hearty bluff
#

I suppose it doesn't help when the imperium itself is so corrupt and likely those who want a better future for humanity are probably executed for heresy

plush mason
#

i chose to believe that the emperor has never once given a single flying fuck about humanity ever in his how ever the fuck long life/unlife has been

hearty bluff

I kinda hope that some of the living loyalist primarchs have a bit more compassion and drive for the betterment of humanity

Warhammer 40k Wiki
Imperial Food and Drink

The Imperium of Man is a vast interstellar empire, the ultimate authority for the majority of the Human species in the Milky Way Galaxy in the 41st Millennium.

To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
