single mom in car fight dog
it sounds weird
Really wanted me to shoot the damn puppy
but this also happens daily
to be fair at that point
the best thing you can do is put it down
Trailer for the 1986 film by Stephen King "Maximum Overdrive".
A group of people try to survive when machines start to come alive and become homicidal.
PLEASE WATCH
Maximum Overdrive has AC/DC
That's stephen COKE not stephen KING
MACHINE SPIRIT RAMPAGE
There is another way, wear body armor and fight it
In the 6th grade I was sent to the principal's office for reading "the stand"
Maximum Overdrive is legit amazing.
No grimdark, no dark tones.
Its PEOPLE vs TECHNOLOGY
The ending of Maximum Overdrive is the funniest thing in the world
the wonder of the New Jersey school system thought I was being abused at home bc I read stephen king books as a kid
when people ask me about rogue/chaos machine spirits I show them Maximum Overdrive
"Arch Magos, this cogitator just called me an asshole!"
I think my first Steven King experience was The Dark Tower
first book is good
after that I don't remember what happens
Dr. Sleep is actually a really good movie if you haven't seen it
Dr. Sleep really surprised me on how good it was
Speaking of stephen king, you guys read Christine?
I have
I avoided it for a long time but the bar scene towards the end tore me to shreds because I had just started going to AA
His newer book about the chupacabra or whatever that got adapted into a series was crazy, mf had to add that the monster rapes everything before it kills it cause uhhhh it uhhh does it uhhh bc uhhh
The movie was pretty good.
It was definitely made by a dark mechanicum of slannesh
Revolutionary Girl Utena is the only car kink show for me
I always wanted to read the one about the dome
That King did
I like the idea of townspeople killing each other over nothing that's why needful things is my fave king book
Has anyone seen the film threads?
One of my teacher when I was still at school gave us a big list, I think there were about 5 pages, about 50 lines of titles/writers separated in about 3 columns. And we had to chose books from it.
And from memory, there were lord of the ring. Harry potter, all the King, all the Agatha Christy and all that. Plenty of books that other teacher would never give us. Loved that teacher. Read an Agatha Christy, my best friend read Pet sematary
Your teacher is prob still on the run from the early 2000's Catholic Church
they werent playin no games w harry potter
In elementary school The Golden Compass movie had just come out and my teacher told me that if we read the books God would punish us and our grandchildren for 7 generations
Teachers are funny sometimes
I remember that causing conflict but idk where the conflict stems from I need to read up on it
I was in a Catholic school but it's more secular than really religious
The main character has a good Daemon as a companion and the plot of the book is that God is a tyrant they need to kill
shiet man that shit was BANNED at the catholic schools my brothers was in
The movie are so different from the books
lmfao
I still know people who won't let their kids read Harry Potter
Westy Europe, we're much more sane about it
Oh yea fs we here in the best country on earth (The blessed USA) were busy invading Iraq at the time but goddamnit don't let that harry fucking potter into the classroom lmfaoooo
Is it because the book is violent or they don't want their kids to turn into a harry potter fan
I know someone who as a kid was allowed to see Lord of the Ring but not SW and HP cause magic
My mom was very chill when I came out but she sat me down as an adult and tried to preach to me because... I really like Lord of the Rings?
I won't let them on principle that it may cause the end of my bloodline
That is fair
I know some mf who needed to be less into hogwarts legacy and more into getting they warts hogged for their legacy yk
giant buzzer no noise
I can't judge any other Fandom because I like Homestuck
I'm the bottom of the barrel babey
I saw so many homestuck memes on ifunny in like 2011-2012 and still don't know what it is
I do not understand the 3 million dollars reference but I will give it a chuckle
A major character of Homestuck also had sex with Hitler canonically and the author wrote that Hitler became evil because of Einstein which was one of the greatest Fandom shitshows in history
10/10 would recommend
I think I'd rather wash my face with razors
Safety razors or normal ones ?
I've read a trilogy that is called "Jesus against Hitler" honestly it was fun
Sounds like a book where you will see Jesus pull a 35 piece combo on Hitler
Anyway my state just brought back banned books and the Bible can be taught in schools now so I'm very excited to see what popular Fandom becomes the next satanic panic
Honestly it wouldn't have been strange if it had happened
theres a series where someone gives the confederates modern military equipment to beat the union in the american civil war
forget what it's called but the dude made a ton of those books
I should buy a bunch of gay YA novels and put them in the charity libraries now that I think of it
Time to Kickstart a Holly Black rennaissance
I've got a lesbian friend. And she always complained that there were such a difference in amount of gay to lesbian centred books
Sometimes people just want to watch the world burn
Holly Black is the queen of "gay side character"
I wonder if anyone has tried to pull a 50 shades of Grey book creation moment with warhammer.


I'm not even sure what it's supposed to mean
Taking fanfic and turning into a novel series.
I don't think there has been one, like GW is not the type of letting thosesort of things go by and none would be as famous as 50 shade
Lol
Technically that's what the open submissions are, write up something and if BL likes it you might get to write some version of it
But you couldn't just write fan fiction and then try to find a publisher, BL is the only one out there. You'd have to go through them
We do have a BL author here
when
Wait
1923?
Nvm
Anyways I feel bad
Lmao
For the people who have to read
And then it was fantasy iirc
Ehhh
Theres a lot of good 40k fanfics.
the problem is
As well so it evens out
There's been AoS open submissions
Smut is never gona he published by GW
GW can barely write women too so
💀
something-something
wet leopard growl
skintight outfit
Half of Abnett's female characters
At least he’s consistent 
LEL
hey he write better female character than Stephen king does
Bequin is great though
Which is not saying much but still
True
He can write good female characters when he wants to
But he usually just doesn’t lol
we will never forget the Sewer Incident

💀
end me
Honestly, not even the one that stayed in my mind the most for me
~~Which is why I’ll now post the Ian Watson noise marine excerpt ~~
Lmaooo
to be fair even that is not that bad
its literally just
orgy sex
penis mouth
most book readers are just very not-used to any content like this
I didn’t need to see the penis get with eyes and arms described
so they are like "OMG THIS IS HORRIFYING"
It’s not horrifying tbh
Its just weird as shit
I mean
Yeah it’s chaos
Watson was literally a fetish writer

you also forget that all the bad female writing is from like 2001 or something, he has improved a lot from then and it's less about wanting to write them good but just learning to write them good over time
Apt Pupil is quite worse for me
pretty sure Nayl is said to have one under his coat as well
bodyglove this bodyglove that
its been like 37 years since I read Eisenhorn so i cannot remember
GW should make the next assassin have a massive bulge just like the venemum one 
LMAO
Yeah the assassins all look sex-appeal'y so i dont mind
tho uh
their asses are flat as fuck
at least the male ones

Yeah
No 🍰
Like the venenum one 
Bros ass is flat
in the 31 millenium the orks took all the ass for their bois by believing that hey had the most scrumptious asses in the galaxy
They’re throwing it back
it's exactly what I'm referring to

💀
Such shame
Finally want to dive deep into AoS lore. Any channel recs?
it better involve space marines
No sex in 40k unless you're the swarmlord
I'd suggest just reading the core rulebook, i... dont think theres any proper AoS lore vid makers out there?
I never checked
AoS lore be like yea this shits sick but it's gonna be so hard to follow that you aint gonna know anything
Old Lion is nice too
Old Lion is Old
as a heterosexual man I'd let the lion destroy me
in combat
uhhhh uhhhhh
Curze gets points because as we all know Curze was a woman

I like dis guy
No this is helpful
I understand now
Is a lil possum
Damn guess ill watch it too
Is this kind of guy still around in the 40k?
Yes
So seeing how some space marine chapters have a special hatred for specific traitor legions, who do the Salamanders and Raven guard hate the most?
Anyone who participated at the dropsite massacre lol
Good point.
They both especially hate the Night Lords actually
Night Lords participated in the drop site massacre, plus what Curze did to Vulcan, plus the rivalry between Corax and Curze
Oh yeah i forgot raven guard and night lords are basically the same thing when it comes to strategy, stealth and scaring the crap out of the enemy
Although it should be noted that Raven Guard don't get along with anyone and have had beef with every other legion at some point
Yeah but Raven Guard hate Night Lords for it because RG hate how brutal NL are, along with the fact that NL also keep slaves
Yeah, night lords attacks tend to be messy compared to raven guard
And then the NL got some of their assets raided by renegade raven guard.
Its just me or is this too slaaneshi coming from the flag?
(For those who dont play DD2, hes supposed to be catholic)
He literally got kicked out of church
yeah but its weird you know
for being a weirdo
hes supposed to be catholich
Doesnt he hate the heretics?
he isn't religous
like at all
his hero shrines point out the fact that he's just a psycho
If you say so
The hero shrines literally say this
one moment
"Drawn to the sombre depths of the church's oubliettes, he pledged his life to the clergy. There, he inflicted death by slow, delicious degrees - each crack of the lash an honour, a gift, a morbid sacrament. But his zeal proved too ardent, his brethren too timid - they cast him out, rendered him once more unto the streets. "
He's a religous fanatic
and got kicked out of church lol
Yeah like
he was too realigious for church
and thats why its weird hes so slaaneshi
spanish inquisition enters the chat
or just disregard entire parts of it that disagree with their personal ideolgy
And also, the fact hes so rotten and still alive
literally fighthing death
isnt that nurgle?
there's also the fact that religious texts tend to change over millennia due to human nature
Also true
I hate this creature
a chaos spawn
out of curiosity why do you exhibit such hate on this creature
Beastmen chaos spawn
It's a Beastmen. You're allowed to despise them
fait argument
Ugly, beastmen wanna kill me and have sex with my chopped off neck hole for being not chaosy so I wanna put him in an industrial deep fryer
that's is a fair response
Like a walk in closet that's a fryer too just put him in there, like a huge smoker but for frying ofc
After that idk I'm not eating it
give it to the ogres
That's true ogres could probably eat it no problem
I'd love a channel that's like a Warhammer mukbang channel about ogres eating everything in Warhammer
ASMR you're at the table with the boys
Or maybe you're skragg the slaughterer making a baller ass meal
"Today we will have a vegan muck bang"
eats orcs
Gobbo stew
fried squig sticks
Id actually love a series where it's orks making like squig pies and fungus beer like a British cooking show
IT'S ZOGGING RAW
Great British bake off but orks
Da Great Orkish Feest
i wonder if peta ever did anything about 40k
Think so with the Space Wolves
don't give them ideas, i don't want to see them justifying the slaughter of innocent worlds because it was done by the tyranids
ohh i can only imagine their takes
It was entirely focused on the overuse of fur of animals on a lot of characters of each faction.
ohh that's their concern, not the literal models where the character wears human skin
He also wrote this in response as a joke lore event:
Its not official since he wrote it as a joke but would entirely fit in 
amazing
Like I REALLY DO HATE overuse of fur clothing and show-off outfits like that IRL but in 40k its like... everyone is awful, its a parody, why are you so upset over this
corrupt governments, serial killers willing to skin an entire planet's population, monsters that can turn a guy soup
Does it mean that if I killed a bear in melee combat PETA would be alright with me wearing it's skin ?
and you care about animals getting skinned?
they will hunt you down and attack you because you killed an innocent animal
is probably what they will do
im working in a remote aboriginal village rn and killing bears is part of normal life lol
Oh woah really ?
What type of bears do commonly appear around there
peta are hypocrites anyways, they kill hundreds of shelter dogs
black bears. there's no brown bears here because the local species was wiped out like a hundred years ago. sometimes polar bears come here but it's like 1-3 a year from what elders have told me
polar bears!?
jesus
god damn
Afaik the practical reason why it used to be everywhere is that was pretty easy to add to a sculpt when they did hand sculpts and you could hide awkward areas with it
i kinda dislike how some fur is just slapped on power armour
Oh, are you in Greenland?
no
I love old inuit ladies, they always give me the stink eye but still want to cook for us
I've mostly had interactions with Cree so far
the village is a mix of both cree and inuits
I've been to Alaska and the area I go to is mostly Inuit and Yupik, probably my favorite place in the world
I almost want to move there but I feel like letting it remain the way it is now would be better than a bunch of white people moving in
I've been here for two months now and im starting to get homesick
even though i haven't left my home province it feels like a different country up here
Yeah the far north really does, but it's kind of the opposite for me
I feel way more at home when I'm up north
Although I'd hate it in the actual interior or yukon, I don't think I'm cut out to even survive lmao
there's a reason they call those places territories instead of provinces
nobody wants to got there except gold miners
Oh Americans go into the interior all the time to escape society
Literally get some land in some barely livable area miles from other people, build a hut, and hunt, spend all summer stocking up because you'll be snowed in all winter
Hundreds of those guys at the least, probably thousands at this point if we're being honest
i dont see the appeal but some people really like being alone
I was considering doing it, but I'm just not cut out for the lifestyle
PETA is so funny
They tried the same shit with wow and have a whole questline about how fucking stupid they are in wrath of the lich king
Yall think a very powerful eldar (like Eldrad level) could sit on the golden throne without getting Malcador'd?
canada? i grew up in iqaluit and also some smaller places occasionally
the absolute worst part is when you leave, and you will always, always always, miss it, in some horrible indescribable way
i have had this conversation with so many people who visited or lived there and you never quite lose that longing. it's like living on the moon in some ways
Yessss
Wasn't that removed from canon? Would be cool tho
I think it was just not mentioned anymore
Its been slowly re-implemented with the last two Dawn of Fire books
We dont really have any idea where its going though so lol
The eeeend timmmes 👻
I do love Warhammer

unlocked him in total war it's so funny
Should I draw an inquisitorial retinue after my infinity stuff 
Why not
How big is a space wolves great company?
As big as the plot needs
More then 100
I'm not even kidding, they somehow stay in the fight despite having one of the least stable geneseeds and regularly losing large swathes of marines 
It’s how every goddamn faction with nebulous numbers works
There’s as many of X as the plot demands
Yeah like, every single time you ask yourself how many of something are in warhammer
is truly whatever GW wants
"You see that space marine chapter that got incinerated by a giant sun laser, yeah they're back"
- GW
also the imperium literally has other things to win, you think you're being overwhelmed, well be happy because you have titan support now
That's still not enough?
How about a literal living saint angel
That still not enough?
How about demonic space marines that are always on fire
I mean yeaa, they're also the only ones not to have successor chapters so that's a good thing if they don't respect the codex imo, they could go extinct
If hypothetically every faction does actually team up once tyranids surround them do they still even have a chance at winning
I guess nekrons boost their power by alot but it still doesn’t seem like much
Maybe we don't really have the scope of the full Tyranid force in the universe
Well so can orks and even the IoM
Hell tyranids trying to pass a front line of Gargants, imperator titans, and the other races titans are going to be hard
Yeah but they are not gonna be alone.
If the races ally up it mean it's their last stands. So the Tyr prob have pulled all their guns too
Not just that the secret weapons of the main factions will show up, moon size roks, psi-titans, aeonic orbs, and other do hickys
Which will work for a while. Till Tyr evolve again
The Frontline of the main factions, is already going to be very hard to pierce for the tyranids, a front line of Orks, space marines, eldar, guardsman and more, also this Frontline will be supported by well armed armor columns, and absolutely devastating firing support
Also each race is unique with it comes to tactics
Yeah but you have Tyr micro organisms that would also be a threat
The factions each have their own way of dealing with that, like ork spores will fight the micro organisms, the tau can develop a bio weapon to counter it, also many more
I'm trying to find the approximative year of when Darktide takes place, it is said it's by videogame ""journalist"" 40,000 which would put it in 000.M41, but the destruction of Cadia is marked in 999.M41 of the current Imperial calendar (which is incorect by almost a millenia but we'll ignore that) and clearly Darktide takes place after the fall of Cadia. So when would it take place? During the plague wars?
Idk if there has been a date placed precisely for it
Ooh so between 999.M41 and 012.M42 ig (end of first phase of indomitus crusade)
yeah, probably closer to 012.M42 than 999.M41 because Tertium has statues of Primaris marines already
O: I didn't notice that
yeah in the Throneside maps you can see those about
It is the 41 st millennia thats all i can tell you
Mmm
But yeah, the most definitive indicator of the timeline is that Guilliman is mentioned and that he has already started the Indomitus Crusade
I have not yet learned of the indomitus crusade do tell
it's basically the mission to reach the lost half of the imperium beyond the rift
Oh cool
and regain control and connection to the sectors lost
That sounds dope
I love magnus the reds story during the start of horus
“Dad horus is being bad” magnus
“Thank you magnus very cool” daemons
Also I have a dumb question, in which sector is Tertium? In Imperium Nihilius or the other?
It's in Pacificus, but Nihilus and Pacificus aren't sectors, those are much smaller areas
Oh ye my bad
Pacificus
Moebian Domain
Atoman Sector
Atoma
Tertium
Yea they're the split parts of the Imperium by the secatrix maledictum
O: thanks
Irrc, but we don't know where the Moebian Domain is iirc
Segmentum wise
For bigger map https://imgur.com/a/JNC7FeW
not accurately but it's around cadia and agrapinaa, galactic north of Terra in segmentum obscurus
some blogpost or dev's forum post stated it was around the same distance from Terra as Necromunda but to the opposite direction
How do we know ?
Whats the tyranid fleet map look like
Oh that map looks way better, I have the other map with my Imperium subscription and it's kinda lame
Yeah, it's fan made but quite accurate, though for Ed7-8 iirc
yeah it's a bit old
yeah that one's the one released during 9th edition
not as detailed but pretty good nevertheless
I don't like it much tbh it's in freeeeeench
Eww, Frenchy
So everytime I have to figure out what the french gw branch is trying to translate as when I talk with English 40k players
Like for instance, Librarians we have a french word for it Libraire but no they were like "naah too easy" and called it archiviste, which means archivist
Why
It sucks

Also idk how it is called in English but in french we call a unit necron tétrarque which sounds exactly like tetrarch's of Ultramar
Oh it's triarch I think
So yea
The translation causing confusions in name
OH NVM
A necron tétrarque is a necron overlord
WHY DID THEY DO THAT

Translate everything or translate nothing I say
Man am I glad there are no translations to my language
Which is?
Krabouillator Ork 
Finnish
O:
I know of one space hulk card game which was translated to Finnish and it's awful
almost any media translated to Finnish just doesn't work
Personally I read the books and play games in English cause I'm more used with the naming convention
"Capitaine avec fusil bolter lourd de maître" "Captain with Artificer Heavy Bolter"
Damn that's a mouthful
Lourd de maître non mais ahahaha
Disrespecting the codex is one thing, losing multiple great companies worth of marines multiple times back to back and recovering within a year is a wholly different animal
I found some for mine
Don't even want to start imagining
How cringe it'd be
Translating names into Latin is the only translation that won't sound like garbage imo
The Italian one sound not too bad iirc
oh there's also the inconsistent translating of We March for Maccrage in french
Sometimes they translate it as "allons y pour Maccrage" and then someone makes a pun and they're forced to translate it as "nous marchons pour Maccrage"
Like that one time in Pharos in which an Ultramarine's doing a 0g assault and says "we float for Maccrage"
Kairos Fatweaver
Since the High Gothic is some iteration of Latin and Italian is the closest language to Latin it makes sense to me
I guess this is the most authentic experience you can have 🤔
tbh french translation could sound great, if it wasn't made by muppets
French would fit well enough, considering all of the Gothic and stuff.. But as for my taste, German would make a thing
oooh truuue
I can imagine using it as low gothic, since there are a lot of low gothics
french german russian too maybe
would sound nice
It's more actually the fact that if we don't have a word to translate it too we just make up shit on the fly, like how the bolter in Italy was always called Requiem rifle
Simply cause it's either that or having to call a Bolter a dart-shooter by going for the literal translation
Requiem rifle sounds cool
How is rifle said in italian? Is it smth close to fusil?
In french thankfully we kept the word bolter cause you can't really describe it as well as "it bolts stuff"
If bolt means turning someone into a red mist
Oh shit
Pardon ?
I just noticed they translated Farsight name
It's a name it just sounds stupid in italian why gw
I mean yea but it's a name that means something in English so ig that's why they did it
Yeah but "Lungosguardo" just doesn't roll well out of the mouth lol
Lol
Wich is even funnier when you then have stuff like the mechanicus models where they didn't even bother translating most of their names
Idk how it is but none of the chapters name are translated for us
Except the grey shields
They tried in Italy then after a while just got back to using the English names
I don't remember if they tried in France at all, I assume in Quebec they had no choice because of anti English language laws
Nah they didn't
I must say it wasn't that bad when they tried it in italy
But they also didn't even attempt to mention the minor chapter names
so the first codexes only had 2nd founding chapters in italy?
"anti english language laws"
my brother in christ asking companies to add french is not asking them to remove english
I mean its Quebec
choose your words carefully

for some reason the french starter sets for 10th keep going out of stock
the really expensive ones too
i actually bought the french starter set for 9th last month because all the english ones were sold out
so i'll have french space marines
Nope, but as more stuff came out they started switching the chapters names back to english
They actually did do a pretty good job with the chapter names
Hey guys, I found the Quebecquois
Nice
Japanese translation is just turning the name into karakana as far as I know lol
Katakana*
Oh God... They translated scions as sons but didn't bother with Tempestus, so in italian they are the "Figli(Sons) Tempestus"
Also love how tanks are translated as stuff like the Leman Russ Battle Armour
Is the g silent
Oh God i don't know how to explain it but no, it's part of pronouncing Gl
I find it hilarious to consider a leman russ as a battle suit lmfao
It's not in that sense but yeah it's funny how most names adapted to Italian and translated literally back to english tend to sound twice more dramatic
I assume it's like french to say it's armoured?
In french we say blindée for tanks sometimes which literally translate to armoured
Ye, more like that
I'm not sure how to explain but we use "armour" too more or less
But it's weird since it's a kind of adjective
But the root word is "armour"
Tbf Scion does mean "son"
Yes but the problem is that they just translated half the name
@odd tulip You're here, what's your take on it
Irrelevant for this channel. Also don't post random links to sussy websites. Do it again and there will be consequences.
Damn my record dry for wrong channel
Does anyone think there are some space marine chapters who should have their parentage revealed?
Like Marines Malevolent as an example.
At the end of the day it doesn’t matter
Parentage doesn’t really mean much aside from the blood angels
True.
And that’s mostly bcs of sanguinus dying
Marines can be nothing like their progenitor primarch
The Carcharadons are a bunch of brutal slavers who round up civilians for enslavement and kill people who aren’t supposed to see them lol
it depdns on the chapter some just are writers pet projectors like the mentor. other like the minatour chapter hsve it redactored but could be a combination of them
In case you’re wondering who the Carchs dad is it’s Corax
It’s all but confirmed at this point
they been confirm it corax. same as excorist are the gk son's
Exorcists are confirmed to be imperial fists
not GK's
it was in a white dwarf a while ago
no there not, look in BL: steven Parker Deathwtch serries talks about how they are GK sons.
the inqusitor state they are a bastard ofspring of the GK chapter.
the whitedwarf recon it,
debatable
They're imperial fists
And have been fists since that white dwarf
wether you like that new lore more or not is up to you
but its what GW has decided
it stil debateable. yeah they did that for rules purposes for the in game modesl cuase they couldn't provde the GK codex to the Exocist. there little to no relationship between the IF and the Exocist chapter comparable to that of the GK. simillar how there is debate on wther or not the Caradon are NightLord of spring or Corax it dpeend on which book your reading. form.
And they were made foolish by Lucius recently
Imo most recent book always takes precedent
Thats my opinon
feel free to disagree with it but imo it makes things a lot cleaner
then your going to have a nightmare with SW lore.
I wonder if they'll give the GK successors when they get the primaris treatment.
idg why your putting smurfs at the end of thing.
Or the true scale treatment if it something else.
They won't get primaris
they'll just get scaled up
it depends on weather gw, think they need to increase the profit margin.
they had a chance to with Crowe
GK minis are old as shit
they're from 4e technically
its about time they've gotten an update
which would mean being upscaled to the new marine scale
which Crowe is in
late but
GK having successors makes no fucking sense
their geneseed is literally from Big E
lol
shit lore but its still lore
yo can take that upwith steve parker.
who tf is Steve Parker
bl writer
Crowe is quite a bit larger
iirc a white dwarf index astartes article and maybe the recent codex for SMS confirms them as IF
then the original Grey knight sizes
Also Steven Parker novel is a few years outta date
but thats mostly since GK's are small as shit
he hasnt been with BL since 2019
yeah
I think that was when Shadowbreaker dropped, his last novel doubled down on Exor as GK
💀
Yep here it is
Shadowbreaker is a novel by Steve Parker which is a sequel to Deathwatch (Novel).
I still think its really funny
headhunter was mention then shaodw breaker confirmed it
But those have been retconned
^
that the plastic GK in 5e were just recasts of the 3e guys
Exorcists are IF
with just better scaling
So now all you have is headcannon, colonel
debatable

Its not
they did it to provide rules for the mdoels in game.
So you would disagree if GW announced one or two GK successors then?
Yes lmao
They don't have rules
Also BL stuff is cannon.
its not
the exorcists have never had their own rules
wtf you on the WD did provide them rules in the game
I think it would be a weird choice
The codex’s take precedent over the novels, as it’s always been
they are literally suppose to be a secret chapter
I don't count pick 2 rules from the codex being "rules"
its just a custom chapter in a trench coat
You can have more secret chapters.
it wouldn't add anything imo
The Grey Knights are literally of their own league
they arent a random "secret" chapter
they are THE secret chapter lmao
its literally their entire thing
How many Bl authories become primary authories for Codexs, current in the Loreshop (according to My local store manger) Grav thorp, justin D.hll and Robort Rath are some of the primary Codex Lore writer and they also all BL authors. So the Ideal that BL stuff isn't Cannon is disproven. as the Fall of Cadia which is mention in several book prior to the the Actual event is cannon, Flase Hope, ichar iv are cannon but they only appear in BL novels
GK got stuffed up by MattWard
Gav Thorpe literally wrote god knows how many codexes since 40k first got established
yes. the point being the stuff in BL are cannon, HE wrote them and god know how many other authoeries expect Dan abbent are Cannon. Abbentt lore just works it way around the Warhammer unverise.
Them being canon doesnt stop them form not making sense lol
Abnett is literally ignored by most people because he deviates so much from established lore.
mostly because he can just do whatever he wants
this is true. but the fact is he stuff is in the codex's which is main stream lore. look at the Guard. there are 2 version of the fall of Cadia depending on how you look at in Justin D.hill (currently in the LoreWorker room) hr wrote caida having a sucessor planet in the form of new caida. while in the Guard codex 9th there is no new planets
Thats not really a retcon though and theres no 2 versions
the upcoming book is just gonna detail the war itself
the Cadia Stands book we had before just followed random guardsman characters that had no ties to the actual big events of Gathering Storm
Yeah because codex writers make mistakes like that a lot
its why people ignore small details like that lol
40k lore is a fucking mess
Where even is this "theres no new cadian planets" thing from
it is. just been catalgoiny libarary i'm at 415 BL and Gw Lore book.
The what?
Yeah but its been established by other sources that Cadians are settling on other planets.
So you know
🤷♀️
Can they still be called Cadians if they've settled on already named worlds?
Yes.
yes justin d hill settles it
Or would it be a case of renaming it to new South cadia.
Basically this is the same as asking if you can still be American if you settle on another part of the world following your parental heritage.
Its about the culture and the heritage of the regiment itself, less so the planet.
Its basically what Odin tells to Thor in Ragnarok funnily enough lmao
Good point.
“Asgard is not a place. Never was. This could be Asgard. Asgard is where our people stand.”

Cadia stands.
There's also several planets called new cadia lol
Yeah that too lol
minus uhhh
those cadians that went to that one forgeworld for aid

Oh no.
Idk.
children -> slaves, Old people -> servitors, Soldiers -> Skitarii
Agripinaa is the closest Forge World to Cadia and received many vessels of the displaced population as refugees, then immediately turned most of them into Servitors after the destruction of Cadia. The ones who refused starved to death.

wrong one
The Agripinaa System is a System of Imperial space located in the Agripinaa Sector of the Segmentum Obscurus and is located next to the Cadian and Belis Corona Systems.[1]

Yeah i dont care its late
not gonna bother remembering all these stupid latin names 😩
also
they stoped servitorizing Cadian survivors and covered it all up 
Now they're just sending them straight into a meat grinder instead
I love mechanicus
Since they're under 24/7 attack
I love how awful they are
Admech apologists be like
"nOOOO THEY VAT-GROW ALL THEIR SERVITORS! ITS NOT INNOCENT PEOPLE"
Sure Jan
Literally

about as bad as "the Imperium is not fascist"
Random tech priests literally kidnap menials to experiment on
its part of the fun
embrace being a piece of shit
LMAO

There's a reason skitarii like blunt force trauma and electric weapons
its because they don't kill the subject
and can be used to "enforce" discipline
Lol
I love how the arc rifle's listed functions are
crowd suppression, anti vehicle, power source and menial obediance enforcer
You love to see it
Also skitarii being noted to like blunt force trauma weapons
because they're less likely to kill menials
when "enforcing discipline"

I love my jackboot skitarii
who are religous fanatics
Also sanguinius being asked why he slaughtred a bunch of innocent xenos civilians by a remebrancer is funny
His answer literally being "because I wanted to"

Isn't every faction, apart from neurons, religious fanatics?
Ehhhh no
Druhkari, Tau, nids, Necrons are all pretty non religious
The nids and Druhkari slipped my mind.
But what about the t'au? Didn't they create an a.i of their main leader instead of revealing his death?
But the greater good isn’t religion
It’s just
General totalitarian regime bullshit
That’s just propaganda
It’s a bad look
He was very young when he died
Right, but surely could have said he passed away peaceful?
Disease isn’t exactly a problem in the tau empire
And he was near the front lines
In a command post
Also like
big leader figure deaths even IRL get covered up and are kept secret at times
they usually only spill after like 1-2 weeks lol
All the North Korean leaders
Yeah
It’s a bad look to have your leader get his brains blown out
How does the imperium keep morale up with emp just dying on a chair
lying
Oh cool
Lying and religion
Religion is very powerful as a morale tool
God that sounds so familiar ngl

They are basically nazi romans so lol
if you dont want your morale to be up uhh
you can just get shot

True, but they did eventually reveal the death of stalin.
yeah because thats IRL
Yeah
Good point.
And they’ll prolly do so eventually for Aun’Va
its a bit like in Equilibrium with uhh Christian Bale?
When he’d potentially die of old age
Quick shill, but Death of Stalin is an enjoyable film.
But rn like
its peak cinema
Aun’va is young
Like super young
For an ethereal
It’ll be a while before he gets to that point where they just say he kicked it
But it’s convenient for the tau empire to say Aun’Va is alive rn
wonder when the juice on Aun'va's hologram is gonna run out.
prob never
Considering they don’t take it out very often never
Aun’va was already pretty like
Well, he's still around recently.
He was in the Arks of Omen, telling Farsight and his soldiers to die for turning against the greater good.
He was the leader of the tau empire sure
But like
He was way less public then past leaders
Imo when they replace his mini they’ll kill him off to the tau empire
The last thing I want is another notable figure being either dead or alive, this f'ing limbo. My mind is already muddled dealing with Old One Eye, the Tyranid Carnifex.
love that movie
I do too.
Wait, what about that t'au god the gue'vesa and t'au client states created?
That isn’t the tau themselves
Imo
It’s an effect of cultural homogenization
You think it will be ever brought up again?
and i don't have to worry about violating the machine spirit
Recent Tau lore is still dealing with the aftermath of the 4th expansion sphere (starside nexus/Greater good warp entity days) with Shadowsun leading the 5th expansion and trying to deal with the now imperium level of racism survivors of the 4th
But until then yeah, nothing for a while as the Tau race members of the 4th proceeded to exterminate the auxiliaries that were with them
Tbf considering how much Ai they stuff into things you could also probsbly just talk to your gun
also btw the Aun'Va farsight "Meets" is already the hologram and not the og
As Aun'Va dies at the end of the 3rd Expansion Sphere campaign
How long is the life span of the t'au?
around 50 years
You can extend your life by using treatments of course but it's only ethereals
Ah.
It's not only ethereals
And also you can pull a Shadowsun and just get in cryosleep between stuff
sounds like an ork choppa
oh my bad i guess i forgot to include the higher rank officials
Nearly all the weapon models we have are from minis
Ye it mostly depends as they could also be getting rejuvenant treatments from auxiliary species, like one Water Caste boy that had them given by a Magos in Fire Caste
Look at the Breacher kill team
I'm sure you said something important, but I forgot when I saw all of the weapons that would add a appreciable, unique gameplay niche including in the kit whatever this is.
Fair enough, I just noticed enough of my loadout in the same kit that it stood out to me more, lol.
those be heavy chain cleavers not chain fists 🤓
One of those corpse starch cultists, but I can't make-out enough of the image at that resolution to tell much.
ye those are called heavy chain cleavers in his datasheet
it's missing the fist part
Cue "how aren't the rejects infected with Nurglepox, they don't wear masks/get covered in grime", except I can't imagine a loadout based on the cannibal cult with little armor and a lot of explosed flesh, armed with almost exclusively chain weapons going to fight the plague army.
Yeah I find it kind of funny how you can cosplay G-cults better than most regiments
tbf only the vet is supposed to have been a part of any regiment so it kinda makes sense. Cultists are just random radicalized civvies hence the more casual gear
make sense, genestealer cultist exclusively use imperial equipment that they've stole or made themselves in their hivecities
@spring marlin also (though I think it's upscaled for the ogryn)
Oh my god just let this garbage end already, PLEASE
the reveal of part 2 worded it funny so it was pretty easily deductible it won't end there
how are y'all surprised by this
they definitely worded it that way
this is just ridiculous
lmao
like let this series end already, fuck sakes
no, I remember it pretty vividly it being called second part many times and never anything about being a two parter
only thing that was unclear was how many there would be
eh the first part was stellar so I have pretty good expectations for these two
“It took me two years to write the whole thing. It was literally the biggest thing I’ve ever done, the most formidable challenge, because there’s so much expectation attached to it”, he adds. “I loved it. I was almost sorry when it was over and there was nothing left to write – but I had to have a good long lie-down afterwards…”
god shut up Dan
lmao
There are two types of people
Dan fucking loves writing warhamemr and it shows in the work he does and how he talks about it, can't blame the guy
Yeah but i dont give a crap about that part of warhammer he writes.
Space Marines are boring and so are Primarchs

You can condense so much of the stuff he writes into simple things
that applies to so many things though
Im reading the Death and the End and i gotta waste time reading about some stupid characters pilfering Malcador's library wojak pointing at every stupid historical IRL character they found a book of
like I get it Dan
can you stop lmao
As someone who is currently just having fun with orks on dark crusade, seeing gorgutz pulverize a force commander gives me life
there was like two mentions of IRL writers or stories, rest were made up in some thousands years after our time
or retellings of known stories
I like to have connections from our time to that time, why wouldn't there be such things
maybe the human race really was a mistake
You're just realizing that now?
I wonder if he’s partly responsible for all this mess
As one of the earlier authors they used
He ENTIRELY is
if you read the interview above it pretty much confirms it
it got this far because hes just writing so long and so much for every pointless part and side character lol
Its basically going to be his Magnum™️ Opus™️
His Magnus Oopsies
Necrons could wipe out half the setting if they wanted but plot armor stops that so yes.
We need more wacky necron experiments in the lore
I want some guy to catch a lictor, mind control it, and cover that boy in necrodermis
Couldn't they wipe all of the setting tbf ?
yes
Melt down 20 necrons and mix them into one Gigacron
Same with orks, if all of them united, they can generate a devastating WAAAAGHHHH, but since they like fighting they will fight each other more times than help each other
But Necron super weapons are just way too broken
For fucks sake they have something that if you just click this button you can blow up terra
their literal basic units can kill tanks
they got a sniper unit hiding in a pocket dimension that can pop up anywhere at any time

And even if they are not fighting you, a group of them got updated with a virus and will literally tear open a hole in space just to eat you
Yeah necrons are massively nerfed for plot reasons otherwise they'd kill everyone.
- Something something nobles infight
- Something something tomb-world systems are buggy
Like literally, the celestial orrery can end the setting
yeah but that is at least given to the custodianship of an actually responsible dynasty.
They defend it from other necrons who want to use it to kill everyone which is funny af.
And am i happy for that
Because the thought of the imperium getting their grubby fingers on that thing
Is horrific
terra gets incinerated anyway because of the massive side effects of detonating multiple stars around
the lore for the Orrery actually says that funnily enough
but I literally know nothing about how space, planets, and the science behind it works so i got no idea how bad blowing up so many planets by a artificial supernova detonation would be like
I mean if they did survive, blowing up multiple planets that are crucial in supplying the imperium will f*** it over anyway
Like terra will die if other planets are destroyed because they supply it anyway
Climate change? No, on Terra we just turned the climate off, fixed everything.
If we destroy everything, how will we rule anything and obtain more slaves?
Thats right, return to biotransferrence
Meanwhile silent king screaming internally that he hates he sacrificed the flesh and freedom of his people and their individuality
Question time: since humans are especially compatable with biotransferrence, could it be the old ones corrected the necrontyr’s fucked genetics and put it on earth?
🤔
With a less dead star no less
Not really
The human that are compatible with Biotranspherance are the Pariah (Sub type of Blanks)
Which are a Necron manipulation as far as we know
But isnt it also theoretical that pariah is from the necrons
Its not theoretical, Pariah Necron lore is non-existent atm
It got shelved with the Newcrom reboot
