40k-lore-chat

[rose thorn]

on any other pahse besides movemetn its braindead

[arctic talon]

World eaters is all about connecting lol

[storm jungle]

BASED

[arctic talon]

its high skill during movement

[storm jungle]

JUST LIKE ME

[arctic talon]

aside from that uh

KILL KILL KILL

[storm jungle]

average turk experience

maybe they really are for me

[arctic talon]

no funny gimmicks no weird rules

[queen laurel]

Isn't that like the reason why Pancreasnowork despises them?

[arctic talon]

you just want to get in there and smash their skulls in

[rose thorn]

also WHY did the world eater with the flying juggernaught lose their fly key word :<

[arctic talon]

yes

[rose thorn]

yes

[arctic talon]

because they just have one gimmick lol

melee

also their shooting isn't god awful

[storm jungle]

yeah its why i said "braindead"

[arctic talon]

but all your bonuses are melee related

[storm jungle]

not too bad

[arctic talon]

so

also khornate defilers are really good

so there's a reason to take some ranged fire support now

[rose thorn]

i love all 4 chaos god being hyper specalized in a gimmick

i have no clue how 40k will handle slaanesh

[arctic talon]

this thing

[rose thorn]

in aos its

fine

[arctic talon]

Slaanesh is gona be prolly really killy melee

with ranged stuff

[queen laurel]

Oh shit we can't shoot them

Bro just punch the air and produce an air pressure bullet

[coarse pumice]

was that thing the start of the madness

[arctic talon]

no

that thing is old as fuck

or rather

[rose thorn]

in AOS slaanesh is best when yo dont kill, when you hurt enemies with out killing them you can cash in the pain tokens for buffs

[arctic talon]

old as fuck compared to other chaos minis nowadays

Yeah the defiler is 3rd edition lol

and thats the same kit

[coarse pumice]

the madness started long ago

which eventually led to superheavies being in normal 40k

[arctic talon]

they were still selling this model a while ago

till they ran out of stock for him

[rose thorn]

i honeslty this isnt the worse kit, just replace like, the head

[coarse pumice]

least silly looking night lord

[arctic talon]

its really nice

in terms of actual like construction

[coarse pumice]

y'know

[storm jungle]

actual crime against humanity

[coarse pumice]

I wonder if the Horus Heresy would make more sense if it were something like 38k

[arctic talon]

I wish he had a goblin green base

[coarse pumice]

or even 39k

[storm jungle]

Nah

also not like it matters

[coarse pumice]

10k just is too much time

[storm jungle]

in 40k its not

also the horus heresy lasted 7 years

legit who wrote that

[arctic talon]

bored

also they wrote up all the like baseline lore for the horus heresy

in a pub or some shit

that isn't a joke

[coarse pumice]

yeah, bugmans

or something

well maybe not in those days

[storm jungle]

Bugmans Brewery, my fav

[storm jungle]

Thats another thing I hate about some 40k fans

they just

[coarse pumice]

but it was usually stuff thought of in a pub, then written up the next day

[storm jungle]

look so deeply into these as if they are myths

[arctic talon]

bro its not a myth they were like

[storm jungle]

its literally just some lads in a pub coming up with ideas to sell minis

[arctic talon]

a small ass company lol

it was like 15 guys back then

[storm jungle]

"Why would the Emperor do this"

[arctic talon]

"he's a huge asshole"

[storm jungle]

because genocide and crusade parallels

next

[coarse pumice]

you can look up interviews with Priestley and others

[arctic talon]

god this hellbrute model is so good

compared to the current one

[coarse pumice]

the interviews basically tell the whole story

[arctic talon]

I cannot believe this is the "modern" one

[storm jungle]

Was it Priestley who said 40k was not a parody

which i always found bizarre

because it literally is parody

lol

[queen laurel]

How the **** does the modern one look like I made it

[storm jungle]

same with "Ghaz is totally not based on Thatcher"

[queen laurel]

That's not I compliment by the way I am insulting myself

[arctic talon]

also the fact that these 2 released in the same year will never not be funny to me

[rose thorn]

OH YEAH THEY HAD RULES

[arctic talon]

like what the fuck happened to the mutilator lol

did GW just fuck up?

[storm jungle]

OH MY GOD WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAACE

[coarse pumice]

It was a mix of high and low writing

Though the Horus Heresy was not meant to be elaborated on

[storm jungle]

Yeah

it was literally one tiny text box

i have it saved somewhere, 1 sec

[arctic talon]

It was meant to let you do imperium vs imperium stuff

without being immersion breaking

for epic 40k right

[storm jungle]

Found it

this nigthmare

all spawned from this thing

[queen laurel]

Yeah but if I'm going to have someone lead my town Ghaz seems like a better option than the iron lady

[arctic talon]

Ghaz is more likely to make it prosper

[storm jungle]

Can't believe Planet Landfalks is gonna get attacked again

[arctic talon]

this daemon prince also looked way better

then its sucessor

we do not talk about this one

or this one

[storm jungle]

this one is a classic but the new one aint that bad either

especially since its based on that one

[arctic talon]

The new one is based on the classic one

[queen laurel]

What do you mean I have to strip and look more hot

Sorry boss order from the Prince or Princess honestly I don't know, they said you better show your shredded or they will not longer give you power

[echo vault]

Tennis is banned in nehekara because Settra does not serve

[arctic talon]

which is why it looks good

[storm jungle]

THATS WHAT I JUST SAID

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

my brain is smooth

[storm jungle]

also this kit is genuinely strangely generous

[queen laurel]

since i played dawn of war this demon prince will always stick to me

[storm jungle]

especially with the head options

[arctic talon]

you can build like

3 daemon princes out of it

[echo vault]

DESPAIR, FOR I AM THE END OF DAYS

[arctic talon]

almost 4 if you have an extra arm

but you need bodies is the big thing

https://tenor.com/view/3dprint-3d-printing-design-time-lapse-gif-13502531

[queen laurel]

Oh the voice lines in dawn of war my favorites were definitely the war boss and of course the demon Prince

[echo vault]

I love the big meks voice lines

I like all the ork ones like flash gitz so I am biased

[queen laurel]

RAAAAAGGH FOOT SLUGGIN IT IS

[arctic talon]

my favorite primaris lt.

[echo vault]

Ere to fix your gubbins

I'm also hoping they do more daemon prince for lesser/equal chaos gods like verminlords

Need more hashut

[arctic talon]

tbh chaos dwarfs are heavily implied

for AoS soon

so maybe

[echo vault]

They've had rules for aos for a while

[storm jungle]

Yeah they will deffo be a future army at some point

its just uh

[echo vault]

And a new model shartor

[storm jungle]

AOS has lots of baggage

[arctic talon]

^

lol

[storm jungle]

since everyone is getting attention

compared to 40k

[echo vault]

Drazoath is alive in aos

[coarse pumice]

I had one of these but replaced the head with a bird head

[echo vault]

The best boy

[queen laurel]

Speaking of AOS I'm interested to see how they will make the new Kruleboyz monster killarz

[arctic talon]

tbh it prolly looked way better

the head they give you is hideous

[echo vault]

The tzeentch daemon prince in TW3 😳

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/callisto-callisto-protocol-the-callisto-protocol-gif-27253380

[arctic talon]

you have 6 total heads in the daemon kit which is nice

the 4 god ones

and 2 chaos undivided ones

[storm jungle]

its surprising

because GW is usually never this generous

[queen laurel]

oh you weird critter

[arctic talon]

tbh you get 2 extra skitarii

[queen laurel]

i swear to god man

[arctic talon]

with every skorpius kit

then again meh

[queen laurel]

ok looks like the new age of sigmar kruleboyz models will look pretty lit

Can't wait to see what they cook up

[echo vault]

The tzeentch head fat

[arctic talon]

its not fat

its bluetacked on lol

so its way too far out

[echo vault]

Megamijd

[arctic talon]

its supposed to sit deeper in the hole

[echo vault]

I'd just use a keeper of secrets head

[arctic talon]

thats slaaneshi

[storm jungle]

also no beak

kill him

🫵

[arctic talon]

I've never seen this damn thing

on the table lol

[rose thorn]

i mean, its cool for dioramas

[arctic talon]

it is

[rose thorn]

wait what shaep are the bullets

shape

why is teh barrel so, flat

[arctic talon]

SQUARE

idk

[queen laurel]

I swear to God
khorne is depicted as your armored tyrant
nurgle as a reddit moderator
slannesh as a influencer
and the blue guy just gets to be the biggest bird

[storm jungle]

Khorne is very much generic-satan horned demon

[arctic talon]

GW's restraint to not make this another primaris lt.

[storm jungle]

god

[arctic talon]

is incredible

[storm jungle]

i remember when that came out

literally a fucking joke

[rose thorn]

wait is that even a fucking leutentant

[arctic talon]

no

its a sgt.

[rose thorn]

lutenant

[arctic talon]

he's the guy from the 10th trailer

aparantly lol

[rose thorn]

?????

where?

[storm jungle]

Yeah it was around like "we sold this many units, have another space marine"

[arctic talon]

but he has the wrong gun

so

idk

its at least a cool diorama piece

but like ????

[rose thorn]

i mean, coool for kit bashes

[arctic talon]

they didn't even get the gun right lol

[rose thorn]

but

[queen laurel]

does he have anything special going for him besides being a basic space marine?

[echo vault]

Sergeant tho red helmet

[arctic talon]

yeah its a sgt.

[rose thorn]

little did we know, he was the best character model in the whole game

[arctic talon]

I said there was restraint

[rose thorn]

12 inch +2 to hit aura

[arctic talon]

to not make him a primaris lt. lol

[arctic talon]

He's just a diorama piece

he's meant to look cool

[echo vault]

This is still cool

[arctic talon]

prolly an unused base for the primaris captain

in indomitus they wanted to reuse

[echo vault]

The sicaran omega small

[rose thorn]

still cool, problem, just play titanicus

[storm jungle]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/932642462709743656/1125185025806176378/20230702_150137.jpg

[echo vault]

Why not do both

[arctic talon]

You can play a full titan maniple in Epic lol

stomp on the tiny men

[rose thorn]

JSUT MAKE THEM THE SAME GAME

[arctic talon]

I will bring a direwolf scout titan

no

[echo vault]

I'm just viewing it like an expansion to titanicus

[rose thorn]

LMAO

[arctic talon]

Titanicus is very different

[echo vault]

True

[queen laurel]

drinks squig Juice

what did i expect

[arctic talon]

I don't want stupid epic

in my titanicus

[echo vault]

Can I bring my warmaster

[arctic talon]

prolly lol

[echo vault]

Ok good

[arctic talon]

they're all in 8mm scale

[rose thorn]

okay true it just, feels weird that there are 2 tiny titan combat games

[arctic talon]

I see no reason a warmaster wouldn't be allowed

[arctic talon]

its the same minis

[rose thorn]

what

[arctic talon]

this is just to let you have beeg army

yeah

its the titanicus warhounds

[echo vault]

I wanted to get the warmaster iconoclast with two power claws

[arctic talon]

its the same color scheme lol

[echo vault]

But that involves buying two of them

[arctic talon]

as the starter kit

I want a direwolf

[rose thorn]

https://tenor.com/view/im-dead-inside-gif-24379276

[arctic talon]

but alas forgeworld

[echo vault]

They're in the mortis color scheme

[rose thorn]

okay cool, i dont think having both is necessary

[echo vault]

FW quality is better than I remember at least

At least for newer ones

[arctic talon]

people want to play with tiny marines

[echo vault]

Some older models especially if they're bigger

[arctic talon]

also aeronautica is semi dead

so they want to reuse stuff

is literally the answer lol

Titanicus is alive since its the only big mech kill other big mech game on the market lol

[echo vault]

The malcador is getting some love (mini scale but PLASTIC)

[rose thorn]

battle tech???

[echo vault]

Don't say battle tech, trying my hardest not to say battletexh

[arctic talon]

With mechs this big

[echo vault]

Real question

[arctic talon]

battle tech mechs are smol on the tabletop

[echo vault]

What the fuck is warmachine

[arctic talon]

which does lend to a better scale

[echo vault]

And hordes

[rose thorn]

doesnt battletech have a scaling diagram

[arctic talon]

warmachine is a dead francise

[rose thorn]

let me check

[arctic talon]

yeah it does

[echo vault]

It's been at my local game store since the dawn of time

[arctic talon]

but titanicus is more indepth regarding the like

individual titans

compared to battle tech

the knight portion of titanicus plays more like battle tech

then the titan portion

[echo vault]

I think if you got the dire wolf it wouldn't be too hard to work with putting together, the only issue is the price

[arctic talon]

yeah thats why I don't want one

its overpriced as hell

for a warhound with a warlords gun glued onto its back

but I think it looks cute

[echo vault]

I love it

I love his half Vulcan

The singular

[arctic talon]

its adorable

[echo vault]

The legs are really cool

[arctic talon]

it'll also be able to kill a warlord

which is funny as shit

[echo vault]

It's like if you combined a warhound with the porphyron knight

With that like round body

[rose thorn]

you knwo what would be cool, if the new imperialis game had the other xenos lmao

or titanicus

[echo vault]

It's inevitable

[rose thorn]

does titanicus haveit??

[queen laurel]

Why does he look like a robot puppy that I would have attach every type of weaponry to

[echo vault]

Not yet but you could use epic rules or rules tweaked for titanicus

[arctic talon]

Because it’s supposed to

[echo vault]

People want their mega gargant

[arctic talon]

Eventually

Is the plan

[rose thorn]

like, im stll shocked that xenos arent playable in HH

[queen laurel]

Yeah that would do it

[rose thorn]

give eldar something

[arctic talon]

Forgeworld only originally

[echo vault]

There's custom rules in 1d4chan

[arctic talon]

So they had less production space

[arctic talon]

There’s better ones on a discord

I forgot it’s name

[echo vault]

Yeah since those were 1.0 for real

[arctic talon]

But they have full rules for every era appropriate faction

[echo vault]

1.0 heresy sucked

[arctic talon]

And they’re working on porting nids and tau now

[echo vault]

Armored ceramite made melta guns useless, much bigger squad size and everything until the calth box was resin so it cost a lot

[arctic talon]

Which also causes the debate on wether farsight and shadow sun should have the primarch keyword or not lol

[arctic talon]

Biggest thing is only orks would work in titanicus from a like gameplay to lore standpoint

Eldar would require a completely new system

[echo vault]

I need gargants

[arctic talon]

Within titanicus

I guess Tau would work as well

For titanicus

[echo vault]

We need the great gargants PENIS GUN

[arctic talon]

Since they have reactors and such

[rose thorn]

eldar have titans, they are just bigger eldar

[echo vault]

I want a bigger taunar

[arctic talon]

Yeah which is why it wouldn’t work

Eldar titans don’t have power management

[echo vault]

Warlock titan tho

[arctic talon]

They’re giant psychic golems

[echo vault]

How did they work in old epic?

[arctic talon]

An ork titan seems like a nightmare to manage

[arctic talon]

Old epic didn’t have a power system

Like titanicus

Titans were just big stompy robot you could target specific parts of

[echo vault]

Oh ok

It'll probably just be a carbon copy just with magic instead of power

[arctic talon]

Lol

Psychic juice

[echo vault]

Where targeting a weapon would basically involve severing the psychic link to that part of the body

[arctic talon]

I don’t think eldar lose power tbf

Or rather excess power

[echo vault]

Like you're cutting off nerve endings and such

[arctic talon]

When they get a limb removed from a titan

It would hurt like a bitch for the eldar soul tho

[echo vault]

Ofc

I know they live in half way between hell and reality but wraithknight dark eldar would be cool, but alas psychic energy in essentially hell zone is a bad idea

They could make one out of flesh though

Not wraithbone but it'd be like a wrack but big

[green loom]

I went to mow the lawn and there's now over 1k messages

[echo vault]

The slop

[storm jungle]

They have actually

its also powered by the spirit stones of craftworlders who are constantly suffering which is even a bigger troll move

Tabletop wise tho yeah like wolf said it'd be weird since the Druks entire thing is not using psychic stuff

[queen laurel]

hey dilara can you tell me what do you think of this ork weapon I made for my character, sorry about the lines I'm still fixing some of the things

[storm jungle]

Honestly entirely grounded in 40k tbh

it helps since like uh

Squigs can literally be anything

they are very multi-purpose as you obviously know so this isnt that far fetched

[arctic talon]

The targeting squig exists

So this looks fine lol

[queen laurel]

Yeah I wanted to give him something eye catching and wearing this as a power glove would definitely work

[echo vault]

The slop monster

[storm jungle]

Yeah entirely so

Orks can get away with a lot of ridiculous things

[autumn maple]

can some one sum up what happend on atoma rn?

[queen laurel]

Also I don't get a feeling of creativity block because of trying to name them because I can literally just go like this rescue tractor beam is called the runt catcher

[storm jungle]

40k is that kind of setting where someone will say an idea you have for a homebrew character is stupid when something just as ridiculous exists in canon.

Like if Yarrick didnt exist and I made a character with his exact same background you'd get people commenting that

"He cant have an ork arm, he'd get executed"

so it really doesnt matter honestly, the sky is the limit Bulgur

[queen laurel]

except i added extra engines to my rocket and now my creativity is plummeting to the sun

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

Also what do you wanna know bud

like in general?

[autumn maple]

yea

[storm jungle]

Uhhh let me copy paste

The Summary is very surface because as others have said we dont know much about the game, Atoma Prime the planet itself has some lore on the lexicanum if you want to read it along with the Moebian 6th, but the general deal is that the regiment was recalled home (being the most elite fighting force of the sector) to deal with the local uprising of the Admonition Cult (the dregs you fight ingame) before launching a trojan horse attack and revealing they had switched sides and catching the entire planet by surprise, these were mostly made by rigged to blow trains judging from the trailers with chemical concoctions that turned a lot of the population of the lower hive into poxwalkers.

Now they are fully helping with the uprising alongside the cult and fighting globally around the planet, our missions are more spec ops related at hitting tactically important spots within the Hive while theres an active war going on in the other sides of the planet.

Most lore we got so far is that the Moebians and the Cult used the Water Cartel to take over most of the Underhive before betraying them alongside any other criminal organisation as well as that they had inside help from the Hive for the surprise invasion, very possibly by another noble house.

The general "lore" for the game gets revealed as we go even if its not too much, at the moment our job is to keep distrupting the Cult and the Moebians to give us an edge on the war, for now no help is coming due to the effects of the Great Rift on the Moebian Domain so we are completely alone.

[queen laurel]

Orks are awesome because I can make up dumb shit and it works because they are orks

[whole latch]

I have a query. I haven’t yet read the original lore when Ollanius was a regular human soldier instead of being immortal. Why were there regular soldiers on the Vengeful Spirit?

[storm jungle]

Because it was just a big war

[winter vessel]

based explanation, respect.

[storm jungle]

there isnt much beyond that

Big E just took some lads with him

[crimson kayak]

also as always marines alone don't number enough to do everything everywhere all at once

[storm jungle]

^

[winter vessel]

and were scattered on the ship

[whole latch]

I see

[storm jungle]

Yeah its very basic

now they are currently wrapping up Siege and putting a ribbon on that whole thing

[whole latch]

Because now the only reason he is getting there is because of privileged knowledge

[storm jungle]

Honestly yeah thats the best way to put it

He literally does not care about Big E, hes just "doing it for humanity"

the propaganda is set up so that once the Siege is over people will think he was some heroic imperial soldier

[winter vessel]

Imperial Fists trying to save face saying it was one of their own who stood up to Horus

[storm jungle]

mfers acting like my university classmates

[whole latch]

Especially not after the whole using Enuncia mid-stab debacle

[storm jungle]

Yeah Abnett is uh

weird lmao

Hes an old guard writer so he can literally add whatever the fuck he wants into novels, nobody can really deny him

[whole latch]

Personally hope Ollanius loses his perpetuality before the big scene

[storm jungle]

I mean it doesnt matter if he doesnt

Horus is literally a demi-god rn

hes gonna erase him from reality

[whole latch]

It does matter for good writing

[storm jungle]

Eh

HH has lost its good writing years ago

[green loom]

Tbf the event in new lore was based on his son

[storm jungle]

Also that too

[green loom]

Who got mulched by Angron

[storm jungle]

But anyway hes not gonna survive the encounter

[winter vessel]

As much as I support Ollanius Pius(perpetual my ass) being the one who stood up to Horus, there are different accounts of who stood between the Warmaster and Big E that it gets kind of...fucky wucky.

[storm jungle]

Nah it doesnt

basically

It started out as Olly

then the lore was getting updated

and the writers were like

"Hmm we gotta do better marketing"

then it changed from a marine to a custodian etc

then we are at square one

where its gonna be Olly again

but the writers are making it so that the ACTUAL in-lore story is muddled, with the surviving propaganda people believing Olly was some heroic imperial soldier when in reality hes literally on his own trip

[winter vessel]

Just as long as they don't mess up Katsuhiro's involvement, even if it means he won't be brought to light again.

[storm jungle]

Yeah they are more or less acknowledging the fuck-up edited writing and making it reality inside the lore which is a pretty good move i think

makes more sense

[winter vessel]

Such a cool name for an average guardsman. In japanese the name means "victories"(Katsu) and prosperous" (hiro).

[storm jungle]

Hes also actually from Japan lol

well whatever Japan is now

they name drop Nippon in the book and its lol

[queen laurel]

ok fuck it my creativity is rampaging I'm going to add a Kannon on the arm mounted squigosaur

[arctic talon]

It’s not Japan it’s the pan pacific alliance

Or whatever the fuck

[winter vessel]

I mean that is the alternative referral of Japan. I'm just impressed other average names like that makes it's way as far as the 40th millenium. It never fails to amuse me there's a badass chapter master that's got the name "Pedro".

[arctic talon]

Yeah and it’s fire as hell

[storm jungle]

I know, because GW hasn't been that great with coutnry names in the past lol

looks at Warhammer Fantasy

[arctic talon]

Ind

[storm jungle]

Ind is in the Siege book too

[arctic talon]

💀

[storm jungle]

💀

[arctic talon]

It’s not the worst

Tbh

[storm jungle]

yeah like thats kinda fine

but its just

very uh

[arctic talon]

Boring

Lol

[storm jungle]

"white guy british writer researching other nations"

[winter vessel]

neighboring kingdom, kingdom of "eed".

[storm jungle]

King of Sneed more like

[arctic talon]

Mercian gun brotherhood

[merry prism]

next you'll tell me there's a real place called Araby

[arctic talon]

I can’t believe that shit is canon

Funny as fuck

But still

[green loom]

Araby is in Fantasy yeah

[arctic talon]

Araby also isn’t bad

Nippon is just

Irl Japan

[storm jungle]

oi thats where im from

[arctic talon]

In terms of naming

[storm jungle]

Araby is literally just Aladdin in lore

[arctic talon]

[green loom]

Aren't you from Anatolia

[storm jungle]

they got an evil sorceror named Jaffar

[arctic talon]

Like ????

[storm jungle]

also flying carpets

LMAO

[arctic talon]

Why the fuck did they just go with Nippon

[arctic talon]

Please god total war devs fix this

[storm jungle]

LSFKLSDDKLS

[merry prism]

at least call it Japany

[arctic talon]

💀

[storm jungle]

just go with the turkish version

Japonya

[arctic talon]

Is Nippon really worse

Then Japany

[winter vessel]

Arkhan "Land". The guy's surname that can be used for just about anything since GW says f you that's why. Land Raider, Land Speeder, Land Crawler. Hell, name a territory after Arkhan and call it Land Land.

[storm jungle]

im gonna ban you

[arctic talon]

He’s old as fck in lore as well

Some drunk GW writer

Prolly came up with it

And the rest of the team rolled with it lol

[storm jungle]

yeah its why i love when like

some fans look SO into these

[green loom]

Land Invasion

[arctic talon]

Lol

[storm jungle]

Did Austin Powers invent Power weapons

[arctic talon]

Yes

[storm jungle]

Nice

finally some good UK lore

[green loom]

Favourite bit of fake lore?

[winter vessel]

Lasgun-Land Pattern. Lost Astartes legion. Not the Iron Hands, oh no no they're the Land Hands.

[storm jungle]

aaaa

[arctic talon]

Nurgle is nice

[merry prism]

Cathay literally means china as well

[green loom]

Mine's tied between "good" chaos gods and some imperial planets being "just like earth"

[arctic talon]

Cathay and Nippon both fall into the

They ran out of ideas

Territory imo

[winter vessel]

Angry Marines?

[green loom]

That's fanon not fake lore

[storm jungle]

Angry Marines are very cringe tbh

also like

massively 2012

lol

aka an era when being homophobic and psychotic was equal to "Haha meme"

then again 4chan made them so checks out

[winter vessel]

Didn't know they're name coming across them the 1st time, but they're color pattern looked red and yellow so my first assumption was it was a joke chapter and called them "Mcstartes" at first.

[green loom]

I'm a slavophobe

[storm jungle]

💀

[storm jungle]

same honestly

before i found the actual mcdonalds marines

[arctic talon]

Oh yeah GW made a techno barbarian group called the Ethnocracy

And put them in europe

[storm jungle]

I mean

accurate tbh

[winter vessel]

how appropriate

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

Next to Germany

They were not subtle

[viral halo]

GW named a planet birmingham and made it a shit hole

[storm jungle]

||the joke is europeans are racist||

[arctic talon]

Also Albany being on the England isles

[green loom]

It's a joke?

[arctic talon]

And being a shithole

Is funny

[viral halo]

the one thing europeans and I have in common

[arctic talon]

Just finished watching Adeptus Ridiculous' take on the Carcharodons yesterday. Bricky calls the chapter "Edgy" and " they are cool in the way that a 15 year old would find it cool." . But then I've seen him liking the Night Lords and I'm like confused Jackie Chan expression.

[green loom]

AoSscare

[arctic talon]

His reason for like the night lords is literally bcs they’re edgy and 15 year old cool

Lol

[green loom]

That's exactly what Bricky would find cool

[arctic talon]

Yeah

Lmao

[storm jungle]

lmao

[arctic talon]

Lol

[green loom]

Trust me I've been watching him since his league guides

[storm jungle]

Hes fun but sometimes has uhhh very weird takes

[arctic talon]

True!

Tbh he isn’t toxic about his opinions so

Doesn’t matter imo

[storm jungle]

Oh yeah hes just a doofus sometimes

[green loom]

Half the leaguetubers I watched became Warhammer channels

[arctic talon]

Magikarp?

[green loom]

Ye

[supple helm]

i love adeptus ridiculous until they say their opinions

[arctic talon]

Lol

Honestly it’s good entertainment

[supple helm]

i listen to it at work a lot

[arctic talon]

Also it’s not like they don’t hide their bias unlike

Lutien

Kek

[green loom]

I loved them until I saw their Patreon earnings

[storm jungle]

^

[arctic talon]

What about it lol

Is it absurdly high or something?

[storm jungle]

also Bricky not shutting the fuck up about his merch

YES

[arctic talon]

Lol

How high

I’m interested

[supple helm]

yes i usually skip the first two minutes of the episode lol

[storm jungle]

FUCKING FINALLY, SOMEONE SMART THANK YOU

[arctic talon]

I mean

That’s most podcasts lol

I always skip the start

[storm jungle]

I voiced that opinion once and people were like "then dont watch it" bro i dont want to hear someone ass-kiss himself about how much merch they got, you make money bricky i get it lmao

[supple helm]

i dont want your SWEATPANTS AND POSTERS

[storm jungle]

Also all the generic smut in patreon

[green loom]

[storm jungle]

which you can just pirate with Kemono

[arctic talon]

Vaguely nsfw art

Lol

[storm jungle]

Its literally just

"take this character and make them a supermodel"

[arctic talon]

I don’t get why anyone would every buy it

[storm jungle]

also very male gaze, so lol

[arctic talon]

Lol

[storm jungle]

Most people like very generic NSFW

its unfortunate but real

[winter vessel]

I mean to each his own, Bricky. But my 1st take on the Carcharodons were not edgy. Like, they legit sound frightening to me learning about them the first time. They're that one friend who's always quiet and will always look scary even when you're not pissing them off. And their mutation? Leathery like skin of a shark, the point where a Charcharodon would just become silent after living for a long time? And their combat doctrine...shudders. It also stems from my fear of sharks growing up, maybe that's why I got thalassaphobia.

[arctic talon]

As a poster?

Bit awkward lol

[storm jungle]

Nah like i ngeneral

i know many of my friends who make really good art regarding it and barely get any traction

[arctic talon]

Oof

[storm jungle]

then you got some guy drawing a goth gf and getting like 10k likes lol

[supple helm]

me personally i LOVE edgy

[arctic talon]

Do you know about their Psyker ability

[green loom]

They make 25k$ every month btw

[arctic talon]

That makes you underwater

[green loom]

[storm jungle]

Also uh i think the bricky video i hated the most was the High Lords of Terra one.

Where him and the other guy have this image open right

[winter vessel]

feeling of Drowning?

[storm jungle]

And they think everyone in this picture is a high lord

when like its all random people

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

and they spend 30m saying who migth be who

lol

[arctic talon]

That’s less then Shy used to make on patreon lmao

[green loom]

The only highlords are Leontus and Trajan

[storm jungle]

Yeah that

[arctic talon]

But they’re happier nowadays

[storm jungle]

let me get the ACTUAL high lord artwork

[arctic talon]

So meh

[green loom]

They still have all their own channels

Dunno about shy

[arctic talon]

I don’t think she makes content on her own anymore

Lol

[arctic talon]

Since she’s a game artist now

All the old Warframe stuff is gone anyways

[storm jungle]

Shy is also a bit of a dipshit, its why i dont really watch her much

[green loom]

Does she even speak in the podcast

[arctic talon]

Lol

[arctic talon]

She’s mute

[storm jungle]

Yeah that

[green loom]

Does she even type in the podcast

[arctic talon]

Rarely

Sometimes pops in

With a tts

[storm jungle]

and also insults people or makes jabs

because its her "thing"

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

and people like it so

[arctic talon]

It’s her whole

Thing lmao

It’s very

[storm jungle]

Yeee lmao

[winter vessel]

Man I pour one out for Leontus, his situation right now with the tyrannids makes him look like a sub version of Guilliman's situation.

[arctic talon]

The funniest video she’s made was prolly

Doing an entire Warframe mission

Pressing only E

[storm jungle]

Lmao

[green loom]

He's handling it well apart from the near assassination

[arctic talon]

Which also led to the whole melee system getting reworked

Lmao

Which made the game healthier

So that was funny

[winter vessel]

But yeah, AD's artwork posters are...in acquired taste. remembers the Thousand Sons Poster

[green loom]

It's still painful for me cus I have a total of 300 euros to my name

[arctic talon]

Oof

[storm jungle]

Yeah like i said its just generic hot girl

if there was more effort id appreciate it lol

[green loom]

I think AD make more in one month than my family do in a full year?

[storm jungle]

Also yes they do

[arctic talon]

💀

Podcast moment

[storm jungle]

by just sitting on their ass

and talking 40k lore

thats the life lol

[arctic talon]

Yep

Lol

[storm jungle]

Like

i love bricky but

it genuinely takes no skill

[arctic talon]

They had existing fan bases

Already

[storm jungle]

that too

[arctic talon]

His actual like long form content is neat

[winter vessel]

Only that time it wasn't a girl for Magnus' legion.

[arctic talon]

I like it more

[crimson kayak]

currently €16,681 just from patreon

[arctic talon]

Then the podcast

[green loom]

I wish I could get there on content creation, unfortunately every website has actively taken efforts to stamp out smaller creators

[storm jungle]

Fucking holy moly

[arctic talon]

Also he makes the joke of white person video essay

About himself

So that’s funny

[crimson kayak]

literally more than what i make in a year lol

[storm jungle]

that too

[storm jungle]

Its jus ta bit depressing yeah lmao

[arctic talon]

I shouldn’t speak im in the tech industry

💀

[rose thorn]

I love that custody, he looks like his grandfather

[arctic talon]

Then again I hate my life

So

Meh

[storm jungle]

same

[arctic talon]

I love mandatory overtime

[storm jungle]

I also work in an architecture firm so like

i shouldnt complain

but i hate to see it compared to what some people make

[arctic talon]

Yeah

Def

[green loom]

This is my job and I don't get paid

[arctic talon]

[rose thorn]

My work just called me in on my day off

[green loom]

Living that Imperium life fr

[arctic talon]

💀

[crimson kayak]

also i find it funny how i only just noticed how 3/4 of the warframe youtubers i watched moved to 40k content

[queen laurel]

Speaking of Warhammer content creators, what do you guys think of Weshammer

[arctic talon]

Bricky, shy and who else lmao

[arctic talon]

He does a good thing

But god he loves clickbait lol

[green loom]

He's what a 4channer would call a "normie"

[supple helm]

a little annoying but i dont mind him

[arctic talon]

Yeah and it’s fine tbh

Wide appeal is good

[green loom]

Which ig is more digestible to your average zoomer which is fine

[crimson kayak]

dk made it tooo

[storm jungle]

Yeah all the above

Wes is a good lad, just a bit annoying

[arctic talon]

True

[storm jungle]

but not too harmful

[queen laurel]

Other than him you know sponsoring the ads he's pretty much fine

[arctic talon]

Lol

[green loom]

All these successful people doing the same thing

[arctic talon]

[storm jungle]

Whenever you think your art is horrible remember Adeptus Ridiculous' thumbnail artist exists

[arctic talon]

Lol

[green loom]

I think that's less skill more low effort

[crimson kayak]

to me it sounds like someone trying too hard to make reading out the wiki's exciting

[arctic talon]

yeah this

It’s Uber low effort lol

Which is fine for it’s purpose

[winter vessel]

In my summary, I'll take AD's version of sharing lore (even if 80% of it is just shit posting.). Baldermort's good in my book, used to watch Majorkill but even I can't stand his decision of jabbing the topic he chooses to discuss on in each video he posts. and I still believe there was some sort of repressed memory that makes him throw shade on the mention of religion in 40k.

[storm jungle]

i do really like Wes longer vids where he narrates 40k audio book plots, its very helpful for people that cant really get them

[arctic talon]

It’s just YouTube thumbnail art

[queen laurel]

agreed on that, is high energy talking it can be pretty irritating at times

[arctic talon]

Yeah it’s cool

[storm jungle]

Yeah this is a very fair opinion

[queen laurel]

Right now he doesn't have that much high energy so that's good

[storm jungle]

Major is very niche

ive also been to his patreon

[astral whale]

I prefer Baldemort when it comes to lore content creators

[storm jungle]

💀

[arctic talon]

Isn’t it straight up porn

[storm jungle]

Yes

sometimes IRL

[arctic talon]

Lol

[storm jungle]

lol

[arctic talon]

Lmao

[green loom]

I don't like macho

So I don't like MK

[storm jungle]

Same

[green loom]

Just makes me uncomfortable

[winter vessel]

He's fun, especially when he gives that brief story at the beginning of his videos, the one regarding the Emperor's Champion was my favorite.

[queen laurel]

I only watch videos where they are very specifically appealing to me and that is very rare like it's mostly just a tyranid vids and ork vids i watched his other content is eh manageable

[arctic talon]

Least favorite “lore” YouTuber is arch

For

Obvious reasons

[storm jungle]

Arch is literally racist and bigoted yeah

[green loom]

He's not even a lore youtuber he's just a nazi

[rose thorn]

i wanan make a henshin themed killteam really bad lmao

[green loom]

And what was his main series before anyway

Vraks right?

[storm jungle]

He has one vid where he calls gnoblars (a more less evolved version of goblins from Warhammer Fantasy) african american house slaves, literally using the n-word lol

[green loom]

Nothing of value lost

[astral whale]

MK seems like his entire gimmick is that he is the “bad guy” of 40k content creation.

[storm jungle]

Kinda yeah

[rose thorn]

WHAT

[green loom]

No he's just macho

[storm jungle]

YEP

[rose thorn]

WHO???

[queen laurel]

I wouldn't be surprised if he was one of the people in Twitter that discovered warhammer 40K

[green loom]

Which is fine for the right audience but less so for people actively hurt by behaviour like that

[storm jungle]

Arch also deleted a good chunk of his 40k vids due to it having insensitive stuff and joke in them too.

Also REMINDER GW literally asked him to remove "Warhammer" from his name

[rose thorn]

https://tenor.com/view/coin-toss-coin-toss-gif-5017733

[crimson kayak]

only vraks videos ill ever look at are Janovich's lol

[green loom]

He also collabs with a literal neo nazi

[queen laurel]

Gw is pretty scummy but they know damn well there is no way that they're going to associate themselves with that guy

[winter vessel]

Oculus Imperia is interesting to watch, but sometimes I can lose focus. Might be me but I feel like there's a little too much exposition.

[rose thorn]

humor based content creators chosing to either be a smex offender or a racist

[storm jungle]

Yeah Oculus' only downside

also the slow vid production

but thats mostly because uh

he literally RPs as an imperial scribe

[winter vessel]

mhmm

[storm jungle]

so it takes more script writing effort

[green loom]

He works for the government?

[storm jungle]

[queen laurel]

i swear to god only Pancreasnowork is one of the few ones who managed to pull it off

[storm jungle]

THAT too

Pancreas is a rising star atm

[queen laurel]

Like he is pretty funny but his explanations are pretty ******* good

[storm jungle]

hes also very open about the stuff he likes and dislikes

no lies lmao

[rose thorn]

yeah which is repsectable

[arctic talon]

Pancreas is biased

But he makes it so clear

[rose thorn]

but yeah very bias

[arctic talon]

What his bias is

[rose thorn]

i fucking love chaos

[arctic talon]

It doesn’t matter

[green loom]

Pancreas is like that one very based nerd friend who is into and knows about everything

[winter vessel]

I like that about him, doesn't sugarcoat too much on topics.

[astral whale]

Bias is okay so long as you recognize it and keep an open mind.

[queen laurel]

He even openly admit it's better to be an ogre than an elf in warhammer fantasy even though he loves them

[storm jungle]

Yeah literally says "I know people might not like this but its just my opinion"

[rose thorn]

so his content is annolying when he bashes it 5 minutes per episode

but theres good stuff

[storm jungle]

I think his only hate video was uh

against the Altmer

which is entirely fair

[rose thorn]

yeah

i fucking hated his chaos in a box epsiode

but

eh

[queen laurel]

Being racist is allowed if you are racist against them

[green loom]

Ok but hating the elf nazis is a requirement

[astral whale]

Based.

[storm jungle]

Altmer are great because even when YOU are an Altmer they are fucking racist against you

like bruh what did I do?

"Exist."

[rose thorn]

they are completely fiar to hate

they ahte you

i liek them because of that

[storm jungle]

same

[green loom]

They're like Hungarians when they meet people from other diaspora
"You're not a foreign savage?"

[storm jungle]

LMAO

[rose thorn]

also they liek tallarn for some reason

[storm jungle]

People be like "Skyrim racism is overplayed"

Come to europe and say that

[rose thorn]

they made an agreement to not attack each other in old hammer lore

[winter vessel]

Little thing, sometimes when I need like uh pickme up for lore? I just listen to Deadlift for the D gods, won't get the whole thing but it can be brief.

[astral whale]

Could just be a cultural thing like “yeah we aren’t racist if we don’t make any exceptions”

[green loom]

Skyrim racism is underplayed

[storm jungle]

KLDSKLFKLDS

Skyrim racism is just

Everyone

Also femboy wood elves

[winter vessel]

"it just works"

[rose thorn]

ITS SO HARD FOR ME TO liek skyrim i feel uncomfortable with every other npc telling me how much x race is terrible

[storm jungle]

LMAO

honestly skyrim is not that racist

its mostly comedic

[green loom]

They make angry comments at eachother

[storm jungle]

^

[green loom]

It doesn't even have real hate crime

[rose thorn]

yeah but, the first faction you are intorduced to want to muder all the elves

[storm jungle]

Kind of

Nords just want independance dont they

also hate the Empire

who are just italian romans

[green loom]

The Stormcloaks are also nord supremacists

[storm jungle]

that too

its why their rebellion is stupid

the Empire already has a plan for the Altmer

its why the whole bowing down to them thing is an act

[green loom]

That and literally being an engineered rebellion by the Aldmeri

[storm jungle]

YES lmao

[rose thorn]

idk shit baout the eldar scrolls lore

[arctic talon]

One of my best slaves was tabaxi/s

[green loom]

Though tbh Ulfric is a shitty mary sue so he deserves to die anyway

[storm jungle]

same

just basics

[rose thorn]

i need to start from the first game

[crimson kayak]

oh hey we speaking eso

[rose thorn]

and go to skyrim redux 90

[queen laurel]

Yeah they are so bad the only time I liked one was for a mod creator to create a altmer character that is actually sociable

If you're wondering what the mod is The Thalmor's Shadow - Taliesin

[storm jungle]

Eyo ill check that out

[crimson kayak]

you can skip the first two lol

[green loom]

Isn't the Markarth guy sociable

You can even get him to help you at the embassy iirc

[queen laurel]

Oh you mean that guy who tells you to get rid of someone's religion

[rose thorn]

?

[queen laurel]

Yeah I will admit he is definitely one of the more sociable ones

[astral whale]

Tbh pretty sure once Ulfric does take the throne someone is going to challenge him for it.

[arctic talon]

Elder scrolls elf lore

[crimson kayak]

first one doesn't offer much in terms of lore, the second is mostly self contained due to having multiple endings and them being All canon at the same time

[green loom]

He can shout so they'd just die

[crimson kayak]

also they are very, very old in terms of gameplay and design

[green loom]

Shouts ig are nerfed sort of

[storm jungle]

Yeah you are NOT gonna have fun playing them

[green loom]

Like Ulfric instakilled Thorig

Or whatever the high king was

[astral whale]

How many other people in this universe can shout considering every single Draugar can do the same.

[green loom]

Not many

Only mortals are the greybeards

Who Ulfric was training with

[crimson kayak]

btw, speaking about it, i fucking love how in morrowind and forward when asked about what was the canon ending of Daggerfall, they literally went "All of them"

[green loom]

And left

[astral whale]

He didn’t kill him with his voice. In his own words he said his voice merely put the king off balance before he finished him by the blade. A warrior’s death.

[queen laurel]

I guess the peaceful part didn't get through his head that's probably as tough as Nordic stone

[astral whale]

If I were to guess, Ulfric only knows the first two words of Unrelenting Force.

[green loom]

Which is still considerable for humans

Like the Greybeards tell you for them it takes a fuckton of meditation and practice

[queen laurel]

But this is the Thu'um just using one word can be pretty ******* devastating

[green loom]

You're special as LDB because you can learn them effortlessly

[astral whale]

Doesn’t it depend on the individual?

[queen laurel]

What do you mean by that

[astral whale]

My headcanon was that some individuals have stronger Thu’um than others. Like the Greybeards who spend their entire lives learning it are going to be a lot stronger than Ulfric, and a dragon far stronger than any mortal human save the Dragonborn who shouts on equal to many dragons.

[crimson kayak]

no it's training

lol

[celest dome]

and knowledge innit ?

[crimson kayak]

yep

but you Do need to have a talent for it

[queen laurel]

It's how trained you are using the words like Monsi said, give a human immortality and he can probably become quite powerful with the words of power

[celest dome]

Though don't ya need a dragon soul to be able to use it or not ?

[crimson kayak]

or else it will be extremely fucking hard

nope

all nords can technically use it

it was taught by a dragon

so that they could rebel against the other dragons

[green loom]

Dragonborn just have a much easier time

[queen laurel]

no as shown by the Grey beards, but learning it is a lot harder without the dragon soul

It can take you lifetimes just to master a few of them

[crimson kayak]

usually it's either dragon related people, ancient nord leaders/heroes and technically akaviri too

but they got their own special fancy version called the Kiai

[astral whale]

I like to think that’s a cheat code the Dragonborn gets. He can use them and learn them much easier by absorbing the lived experiences of other dragons.

[fresh quiver]

Did they get the required tissues?

I am always having to tiptoe in my human experience! It's absolutely terrifying if I encounter something uncouth.

In fact, it ruins entire weeks of my life.

What do you think about Slaanesh @storm jungle

?

[viral halo]

Majorkill is great Bc he lifts

Even if some of his shit is cringe

[fresh quiver]

Not sure I have encountered him

[astral whale]

Nah. Tbh I’d rate Majorkill worse than Arch on the scale of content creators I cannot stand solely because I find him slightly more annoying.

His macho attitude is just that annoying.

[fresh quiver]

I barely remember Arch

[arctic talon]

Prolly bcs he’s got 0 relevancy nowadays

Which is good

[crisp heath]

Majorkill is the only loretuber to stream dick out and I don't know if I like him more or less for that

[astral whale]

I actually liked his lore series on Badab and Vraks but other than that the man is full of himself.

Makes his content annoying.

[fresh quiver]

Why is it good?

Are you pro censorship?

[crisp heath]

I don't like how aggressively sexual he is with literally any topic

[arctic talon]

Because he’s a racist piece of shit lol

[fresh quiver]

What did he say that is racist?

[arctic talon]

Also he literally had cp on his discord

Posted by one of his mods

[astral whale]

Discord mod moment

[arctic talon]

I am not going into this right now

[fresh quiver]

Well.. that's pretty bad

[arctic talon]

But I’ll dredge it up in a bit

One moment

[fresh quiver]

Did Arch remove the guy?

[arctic talon]

Let me finish my reps

[viral halo]

Idk he puts in the work to not be fat so I respect his words a little bit more yk

[arctic talon]

No

Lol

[fresh quiver]

Not really.

[astral whale]

Either way both are at the bottom of my tier list for a reason.

[fresh quiver]

Plenty of guys at the gym who I would never ever listen to

[viral halo]

I love listening to gym schizos

they have the forbidden lore

[crisp heath]

I would say I like pancreas but really I just watch him to hear the opinion of his insulin pump

[fresh quiver]

On PEDs

[crisp heath]

Every gym bro is either an idiot or a wizard

[viral halo]

PEDs are hilarious

[viral halo]

typically both

[astral whale]

Yeh.

[viral halo]

Every guy on PEDs that I've known or know is so schizo
