Slaaneshis have the "amazing" Fabius Bile too

jade holly
#

Mr Let me hold this haunted demon sword cause I’m the only one who has a strong enough will to resist it

dire thunder
#

God I don’t know why people would rather take Fulgrim over Angron

#

He’s so cucked at least Angron has something to actually be mad about

crisp heath
#

How is Fulgrim the worst primarch when Angron is literally right there

green loom
gloomy citrus
jade holly
#

Say what you want about Leman Russ

#

At least he knew how to party

green loom
#

Idk arguing about which primarch is the best is like arguing which MCU character is the best

#

Take that to r/40klore, it's all they talk about anyway

crisp heath
#

There is no "right" primarch, just varying degrees of wrong primarch

little falcon
#

The only sure thing is Magnus did nothing wrong

jade holly
#

They all have their benefits and drawbacks

green loom
#

Mostly drawbacks

median marsh
#

Vulcan reminding Konrad that his hammer also functions as a hammer was comedy gold

jade holly
#

Even Vulkan ain’t perfect

#

as much as I would like him to be so

dire thunder
#

Fulgrim would lose and go have a sad touchy feely party lol

jade holly
#

Especially now that he’s part of Slaanesh’s crew

median marsh
#

explode another virus bomb in his face, i allow it

dire thunder
#

That’s all he’s been doing for however long

jade holly
dire thunder
#

Idc anything about Fulgrim he’s so lame

jade holly
#

Fulgrim been hosting pity parties 24/7 even before the Heresy

green loom
#

Idk I liked Fulgrim

dire thunder
spare osprey
dire thunder
#

Even his design is bad

jade holly
#

Makes you wonder how tf Fulgrim killed Ferrus

green loom
#

That's subjective at best

dire thunder
#

The only good thing he has rn is the colors

spare osprey
jade holly
crisp heath
#

I want Fulgrim (snakified) to grab me by the ankle and thrash me violently into a marble pillar

little falcon
#

Fulgrim parties < Drukhari parties

green loom
#

And I'd advise you to steer clear of fitting too well into the "Guy named Kharn" stereotype KEKW_ogryn

median marsh
#

Fulgrim became the first monster girl

crisp heath
#

Curze was the first monster girl primarch

jade holly
#

Magnus become a less cool General Radahn

green loom
jade holly
#

Leman fucked off to party hardy

spare osprey
#

i think all the primarchs look fine. same as the legions. aesthetics are just liked by different peeps

green loom
#

Macho and annoying

crisp heath
#

Which primarch is Vriska

green loom
#

It's not fun for anyone

dire thunder
jade holly
#

So are Wolrd Eaters red or white and blue?

dire thunder
#

I’m a certified Kharn fanboy

green loom
#

I liked White and blue

#

Though I do adore red so

dire thunder
#

His Audio Books are so incredibly good

spare osprey
dire thunder
#

Chosen of Khorn is one of the absolute best Audio Books ever

jade holly
#

That won’t be confusing at all

spare osprey
#

before khorne they were white and blue

#

some have kept those colors

jade holly
#

I like how no one even mentions Jataghi Kahn

next garden
jade holly
#

Cause he seems like he doesn’t do anything

dire thunder
green loom
#

Ideally I wouldn't mention any primarchs because they're all annoying and stupdi

dire thunder
spare osprey
green loom
#

And it always boils down to MCU arguments

dire thunder
spare osprey
#

except like

jade holly
spare osprey
#

the DA actually

#

they went fully green sure but that was present during the HH too

green loom
jade holly
#

but it doesn’t negate the first thing

dire thunder
#

Sanguinius is actually the best Primarch and blood angels are the best loyalist

jade holly
#

Weird way to spell Imperial Fist

dire thunder
green loom
#

Christ here it goes again

spare osprey
#

i don't think there's a definitive best

#

or worst

dire thunder
jade holly
#

As long as we agree Orks have the best Waaagh

spare osprey
#

i'm willing to be the fence sitter at all times

dire thunder
jade holly
#

let’s just forget about War of the Beast tho

crisp heath
#

Horus was the best primarch

#

Because he hated taxes

next garden
#

Just pick a faction whos lore and aesthetic you like.

next garden
#

Easy

green loom
#

Abaddon has the right of it, kill all primarchs

dire thunder
#

I wish there was a Horror book about a Blood Angel absolutely going apeshit on a heretic ship

jade holly
#

Vulkan is clearly the best because he kills Xeno children

green loom
#

They all kill aliens

dire thunder
next garden
green loom
#

I prefer Cato and Calgar

spare osprey
#

idk if it's that bad for 40k

#

just don't bring all of them back

#

that's the bad stuff

next garden
#

Cato has gotten better but he fucking sucked for a while.

jade holly
#

How many chaos are still alive?

next garden
#

Calgar should have died at vigilus

dire thunder
#

Nah bringing the Lion back was a gigachad choice

median marsh
#

Guiliman took one look at modern imperium and immediately fell catatonic

spare osprey
green loom
jade holly
#

Wait when did Lion come back? As in what year (our year) was he brought back in lore

green loom
#

Like

#

6 months ago

dire thunder
#

5 months ago

spare osprey
#

very recent thing

jade holly
#

Oh still fairly fresh

crisp heath
#

I would like to have Curze come back, but only if it's very briefly, for like one novel, and he has a complete breakdown and flies into the sun to return his character arc to "resolved" status

spare osprey
#

yes

hushed prawn
#

Grimdark was cool when real life was good. The world is going to shit, so redemption and hope are in

median marsh
#

he had his beauty sleep

next garden
spare osprey
#

his book was fantastic tho

jade holly
#

welp better start killing Chaos Primarchs to even it out

dire thunder
#

He’s leading the Blood Angels rn

spare osprey
next garden
#

Unlike Calgar, who lost his.

spare osprey
#

angron is just gonna come back tho

#

in 9 weeks

jade holly
#

Then how about we kill Fulgrim

dire thunder
jade holly
#

And if he’s dead how about we kill his corpse

median marsh
#

im not sure you can kill off a Daemon Primarch without repeating what Emps did to horus

next garden
green loom
#

Lion

spare osprey
next garden
#

Yeah Lion is back

spare osprey
#

they just come back

green loom
#

He's straight up called the Knight of Nihilus lol

next garden
#

I was talking about Calgar serving no purpose

green loom
#

Just teleports around killing things

next garden
#

Lion is a G

spare osprey
green loom
#

I mean Calgar still has a purpose

dire thunder
green loom
#

He's the UM head honcho

spare osprey
#

they pulled a lot of Arthurian references in his book

green loom
#

Guilliman is their primarch sure

#

But he has a purpose above ruling Ultramar

dire thunder
next garden
#

Old Lion yelling at a chaos space marine "what sorcery is this that I'm slow" and the dude was like "you're just old"

median marsh
#

Calgar still has Guilimans powerfists right

green loom
spare osprey
green loom
#

The entire Risen cast is just Arthurian names

#

Half of them reenact literal arthurian tales

spare osprey
#

they up and have the moment where the green knight is beheaded

next garden
spare osprey
#

and you have the emps as the fisher king

spare osprey
#

the risen made the book for me

dire thunder
#

We need a book dedicated to FUCKING TYBEROS

next garden
spare osprey
green loom
#

Tyberos would be boring as sin

#

It'd be like an Iron Snakes book but without Abnett to save it

dire thunder
spare osprey
#

The brotherhood between them

#

The little references to super obscure DA lore

green loom
dire thunder
#

Because Tyberos is just Loyalist Kharn on lots of crack

next garden
#

Tyberos the Red Wake?

dire thunder
#

Yea

green loom
#

I'd say you were wrong but I don't think there's enough written Material on Tyberos to conclude anything beyond "he's a dick and quiet"

next garden
#

Gabriel Seth is more Kharn imo

#

That dude is a massive boss

dire thunder
green loom
#

Space Sharks don't sell

dire thunder
green loom
#

Kriegers do apparently

next garden
#

Even when the skins are bad. kappa

dire thunder
#

Yea they had that one book where 8 million of them died in one fight

green loom
#

Skins look fine

dire thunder
#

I agree

green loom
#

I love the preacher/psyker one

dire thunder
#

Big fan of Vets

#

It’s just WW1 gear lol

green loom
#

Prefer the SL one for vet tbh

#

Or the fkn

#

Blood Angel successor

dire thunder
#

Whose the other one

#

I haven’t brushed up on lore for the Blood Angels and successor chapters

jade holly
#

Did the Lion come out of the Astronomicon (is that what the gps North Star is called?) when he returned?

storm jungle
#

No he was asleep under The Rock Z_TheRock

#

the fleet/homeworld (or a chunk of it) of the Dark Angels

#

we don't have the full details yet

jade holly
#

Damn

#

Can’t make a Lion from the North joke

storm jungle
spare osprey
#

he woke up in a forest

#

walked

#

and was back

storm jungle
#

a

#

forest-walk

#

if you will

jade holly
#

For the joke, there is a Sabaton song called “Lion From the North”

jade holly
#

About a Swedish Captain or something

storm jungle
#

also Grimm question

#

have you been using lexi at all

#

or the wiki

normal light
jade holly
#

Yes

normal light
#

Mostly

storm jungle
#

Good staregryn

jade holly
#

I am still trying to find what I want to focus on

storm jungle
#

my tip is

#

find a faction you like

#

read up on them

#

branch out from there

jade holly
#

Way ahead of you

storm jungle
#

if you go random topic to random topic you will be extremely lost

jade holly
#

Just trying to figure out which faction to focus on first

spare osprey
#

i almost went salamanders when i was starting out

normal light
#

Reading Chaos Lore staregryn

jade holly
#

Between Imperial Fist, Death Guard and Salamanders

spare osprey
normal light
storm jungle
#

I'd say look into Sallies and Death Guard first

#

Fist look good on surface but are extremely generic

jade holly
#

Death Guard for sure is turning out to be the one I want to go into fully

normal light
spare osprey
#

listened to an audio drama with a death guard marine a bit ago

#

really good stuff

#

dude was very happy

normal light
spare osprey
storm jungle
#

thats the one

storm jungle
#

otherwise not much, traitor guard are not a major faction so they dont get central role books

green loom
#

I wish I could sleep for ten thousand years

storm jungle
#

same

normal light
green loom
#

I need to compile who each of the operatives on the mourningstar are

#

This is Molsk I think

storm jungle
#

its pretty great

storm jungle
green loom
#

I've gathered most of them

#

Save the ones without voicelines like the guy left of Molsk at the entrance

#

At least I haven't heard them

#

Soltag and Morti are the one next to Brunt

#

Lensk and Prask/Prall are the ones in the Psykhanium

#

One next to the Commissary is Drall

storm jungle
#

Man I gotta take notes staregryn

green loom
#

The two guys the mission terminal are Adepts Lang/Leng and Stane I think

#

Forget the first guy since he didn't trigger

#

And then the ones I posted

#

There's a female guard infront of the mission terminal that I forget the name of and another overseer like Nessian

#

Does Darktide have a wiki? Could make a thing for it

storm jungle
#

Nah no need

#

the Darktide wiki is also practically dead

green loom
#

Think I'll just compile them in a few days and throw down a megapost here or something

#

"A guide to your buddies" or something

storm jungle
#

honestly if you do it in a humorous "Hey guys I got bored and made this" way it would be pretty good lol

green loom
#

Frankly I'd do it rn but I leave in 8 hours and have paperwork to do so my spine feels like it's vacating my body smilecat

#

But I'll defo make one since there's not too much to do

storm jungle
#

get some rest buddy Pepega

green loom
#

Rest is forbidden, I'm like an administratum scribe on one of those new logistics hubs Bobby made

near wasp
#

@green loom being assigned to those places is a fate worse than death

green loom
#

I'll take it!

dire thunder
#

Is Ghaz alive

green loom
#

Yeah

dire thunder
#

Or like how will the orcs bring him back just WAAAAAAAH

green loom
#

Got his head chopped off, then got better

dire thunder
green loom
#

And bigger

dire thunder
#

Man I love Ghaz

green loom
#

Thank orkimedes

#

He stitched his head on a new massive body

#

After Ragnar beheaded him

dire thunder
#

I really wanna see Ragnaork

#

I’d say Orkz are the only faction in 40k you can’t really hate

#

Besides being turbo British

dry ridge
#

has anyone noticed this creepy voice in the distance while playing? sometimes it says like; “now my little one…”, i play on psyker lately, not sure if its voices in the psykers head or not

green loom
#

are you playing the one that shouts about a beloved

dry ridge
#

dunno, but my brother doesnt hear it (zealot/veteran) and he thinks ive lost my mind

#

someone in psyker chat said it appears while quelling?

dire thunder
#

Yea

green loom
#

You're playing a psyker

dire thunder
#

It’s like inner crazy dialogue

green loom
#

Insanity, paranoia and paranormal bullshit are status quo

dire thunder
#

Psykers are mentally insane

#

They stare into the void

#

So they’re kinda fucked

green loom
#

Well some aren't but it's generally not a good trip for the brain

dire thunder
#

You try looking into the eye of terror

green loom
#

And seeing as of the 3 psyker personalities

#

One is an ostracized pariah who hid away and the other is straight up insane and talking to voice in it's head

dry ridge
#

thats really interesting, just leveled my psyker to 30 starting 2 weeks ago and i always heard these weird voice lines in the far distance like someone was watching me

dire thunder
green loom
#

The Enforcer personalities are the only "sane" ones, but they're brainwashed imperials KEKW_ogryn

#

So it's arguable

dire thunder
#

Tbh I’d rather be that than a normal Psyker

green loom
#

Ok but

#

Loner is based

#

I think he's talking about Baross

dry ridge
#

i kept going every match for 2 weeks like; yo dont you hear that voice in the distance?

dire thunder
dry ridge
#

thats exactly the voice my psyker uses

green loom
#

Send this to them

dry ridge
#

i shall add the voices to cc:

How good is the Mortarion: The Pale King story?

arctic talon
#

It’s fine from what I’ve heard

jade holly
#

Bruh why tf is Lords of Silence $99 paperback on Amazon

arctic talon
jade holly
#

Meanwhile Mortarion The Pale King is only $19 Hardback

arctic talon
#

Mortarion the pale king is more recent and got a bigger print

#

Lords of silence I wish would get a reprint

crisp heath
#

Are custodes miserable?

arctic talon
jade holly
#

And I thought building an army is expensive

#

$100 just for one damn book

arctic talon
#

Don’t buy it

#

Physically

#

Get an audio book

crisp heath
#

I assume they are a little happier now that they get to do things again but sitting on guard watching the empire they believed in fall to ruin would make me sad

arctic talon
#

They don’t care about the imperium

#

At all

jade holly
#

Problem is I never do audio books nor do I even know if I have an app for them

arctic talon
#

They hold no love for it

#

They care about the emperor tho

crisp heath
#

I thought they mourned what it had become since it wasn’t emperoers vision

arctic talon
#

No they just think it’s a shit hole

#

Full of weirdos

crisp heath
#

Oh

arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

Some of them also like making fun of pilgrims lol

jade holly
#

I’m watching a video that’s a 4 way battle of Death Guard and World Eaters(?), Vs Dark Angels and Ultramarines

crisp heath
#

That’s a little boring, figured the emperors companions would be more emotive

#

Rip

jade holly
#

Those bois

#

Be

#

ANGRY

arctic talon
crisp heath
#

World eaters make me sad

#

They never had a chance at any point

arctic talon
#

The only real people custodes have normal conversations with are other custodes

#

Or sisters of silence

jade holly
arctic talon
#

💀

#

That was the beginning of the end

crisp heath
#

We’re they called that before they met angron?

green loom
#

One talks with Greyfax fairly normally

green loom
crisp heath
#

Like did the emperor name them or the primarchs

arctic talon
crisp heath
#

Gotcha

arctic talon
#

Angron renames them

#

After they take the nails

jade holly
#

How do Legions get their names?

arctic talon
#

Primarch names them

crisp heath
#

Yeah I’m wondering that too

jade holly
#

Besides primarchs renaming them

arctic talon
#

They had one based on how they fought usually

green loom
#

The early legions were named after stuff they did mostly

arctic talon
#

Or they got one as a “joke”

crisp heath
#

What were the word bearers original name?

arctic talon
#

Like the thousand sons being called that because they were founded

jade holly
green loom
#

Death Guard were Dusk Raiders, cus they attacked at Dusk

arctic talon
#

With 1000 marines

jade holly
#

Like White Scars

arctic talon
green loom
crisp heath
#

Fitting

arctic talon
#

Ultramarines were called the war born

crisp heath
#

Cringe

arctic talon
#

Dark angels were just called “the first”

jade holly
#

Death Guard were called Duskraiders

green loom
#

BA were the Revenant legion

crisp heath
#

Not awful

jade holly
#

Or something like that

arctic talon
#

Revenant legion as a name was mostly due to how many times they should have died

crisp heath
#

How about the space wolves

arctic talon
#

But just didn’t lol

arctic talon
crisp heath
#

Interesting

jade holly
#

Theoretically every Primarch would be the same age wouldn’t they?

arctic talon
#

Yeah

crisp heath
#

Perty is older I think

arctic talon
#

Space wolves got a name

crisp heath
#

Cause of time shit

jade holly
#

Why tf does The Lion look so damn old compared to them all

arctic talon
#

It’s just “the rout”

arctic talon
#

Back then idk

crisp heath
jade holly
#

I wonder how Leman would look if he escaped the Warp

#

he is trapped in there right?

#

Or at the least went in there and never came out?

crisp heath
#

Figured he was dead

#

But it’s off screen so idk

green loom
#

He's still out there

arctic talon
#

Lemans status is unknown

green loom
#

As of Warzone Fenris

arctic talon
#

He went into the eye of terror

green loom
#

Iirc

arctic talon
#

No one has heard of him since

jade holly
#

Rogal is either dead, or in need of a hand

crisp heath
#

Or he comes back, gives mortarian a swirly and saves the eldar god

arctic talon
#

Jaghagtai is somewhere in comorroagh

#

Prolly having the time of his life

jade holly
#

Prob rolling with the bois

crisp heath
#

Do primarchs need to eat and sleep?

jade holly
#

Prob not

crisp heath
#

Or is he just eternally running through the place at sonic speed

arctic talon
jade holly
#

I know Leman eats and drink

arctic talon
#

They def need food

jade holly
#

Based on some challenges he did with The Emperor

#

And the Emp got so damn petty over it

crisp heath
#

Is it true that the wolf is smarter then he lets on?

jade holly
#

Idfk

arctic talon
#

He’s just very brash

#

And loud

crisp heath
#

He just like me

arctic talon
#

He plays up his stupidity

green loom
#

Smart in that he's smart enough to know he's an ass, and chooses to be such

arctic talon
#

But he’s def not the most idiotic primarch

jade holly
#

Doubt he’s as smart as say, Rogal, Robin Guile, or Perty

crisp heath
spare osprey
#

there are many moments when he understands he fucked around a bit too much

arctic talon
#

Yeah he’s no tactical genius

crisp heath
#

I like that

arctic talon
#

But he’s smart enough to understand the situation at hand properly

jade holly
#

Dumbest would prob be Angron

crisp heath
#

Playing the brute so people underestimate you is a cool trait

jade holly
#

For

spare osprey
jade holly
#

Uh

#

Obvious reasons

crisp heath
#

Poor guy

#

I think lorgar would be pretty smart

#

In his own right

jade holly
#

He’s the most devout

#

I wouldn’t say that translates to high intellect

#

Tho I doubt he’s dumb

#

Just not a genius

arctic talon
#

Lorgar knows how to plan

#

He takes his time with things

jade holly
#

I mean then again he was the architect of the whole damn Heresy

crisp heath
#

The Bible is the oldest history text ignoring the religious aspect

#

Why do so many people clown o. the tau

#

I imagine his deep study of religion would give some insights

arctic talon
jade holly
arctic talon
#

Like

storm jungle
jade holly
#

I say this as a Christian

arctic talon
#

They’re a tiny faction

jade holly
#

Oldest I’m pretty sure is Hinduism

crisp heath
#

You get what I’m saying though yeah

arctic talon
#

Is Christianity not older then Islam?

#

I thought Islam came after

crisp heath
#

There probably my favorite faction

jade holly
storm jungle
# crisp heath Makes sense

Yeah dont let the memes/fans tell you anything, they are a cool faction. For example they aren't for me but i dont shit on people for it

jade holly
#

Too smooth and clean

storm jungle
#

thats the point

arctic talon
#

Their tech looks in place within the context of their faction and place in the universe

crisp heath
#

Tau have weird fans

arctic talon
#

They’re the new kids on the block

#

And lack psychic powers

crisp heath
#

I don’t like how they talk about the tau

arctic talon
#

Their tech is designed entirely from a technological standpoint

crisp heath
#

Or tau women

jade holly
#

I love me some gothic holy designs, but I will admit some people go overboard

crisp heath
#

Very weird

jade holly
#

I’m looking at you Word Bearers

storm jungle
#

also again

#

the imperium isnt the center of aesthetic for the setting

#

theres a lot of non-gothic shit in 40k

crisp heath
#

Orcs are

jade holly
#

Look at Orks

crisp heath
#

Lessss gooo

jade holly
#

They’re mad Max

storm jungle
#

for example, Grimm do you know of House Van Saar

arctic talon
#

Eldar

jade holly
storm jungle
jade holly
#

What the fuck is that

crisp heath
#

Damn

storm jungle
#

no its an underhive gang on the planet of Necromunda

jade holly
storm jungle
#

they have a half-functioning STC

#

it makes shit for em

jade holly
#

Mf thinks he’s the Green Goblin

storm jungle
crisp heath
#

Aren’t space dwarves a thing now?

storm jungle
#

they always were

arctic talon
#

They always were

crisp heath
#

Lol

storm jungle
#

lmao

arctic talon
#

They just became a tabletop faction again

jade holly
#

Dwarves are always based

#

Especially the Dwemer

#

even those are actually elves but that’s beside the point

arctic talon
#

They also are like

#

The only GW dwarves to get along with their settings elves

jade holly
#

Does Death Guard have their own Titan?

arctic talon
#

No

#

There’s nurgle aligned titan legions

crisp heath
#

In a game there is

arctic talon
#

But titans are seperate from marines

crisp heath
#

Oh then no

arctic talon
#

They have their own organizations

jade holly
#

That reminds me

#

Is there a difference between Knights and Titans?

storm jungle
#

yes

crisp heath
#

I imagine size

storm jungle
#

Knights are smaller mechs

#

titans are bigger mechs

crisp heath
#

Less go

jade holly
#

Ok then

storm jungle
#

Knights are also driven by nobility of knight Houses

#

titans are more about specific princeps loyal to forgeworlds etc etc

#

might need to read the lexi for that one 💀

jade holly
#

Lion beat Angron in this battle I’m watching

crisp heath
#

Do tyranids adapt to necron weapons?

jade holly
#

Prob not considering they aren’t able to find genes that are resilient to them

arctic talon
jade holly
#

That’s my guess at least

crisp heath
#

Sick

arctic talon
#

You can’t adapt to getting molecularly deconstructed

jade holly
#

Necrons are cool

crisp heath
#

Kick their ass skeleton man

jade holly
#

And also funny

arctic talon
#

Or having your nervous system turned to ash

jade holly
#

Just a bunch of grumpy old robots who want to be left alone

arctic talon
#

Yeah that lol

#

On the upside death via necron weaponry is usually pretty painless

crisp heath
#

Can inperium use necron weapons? Or is that heretical?

spare osprey
#

i thought it's like

crisp heath
#

I know they won’t get them easy

arctic talon
spare osprey
jade holly
#

If it ain’t made by humanity it’s Heretical

storm jungle
#

Only Deathwatch does and its only for like melee weapons

spare osprey
arctic talon
storm jungle
#

necron tech is so advanced that its basically magic to us

arctic talon
#

Oh that’s cool he and Mortarion have a sort of begrudging agreement with one another

but not every CSM has a melted ass

Typhus is the guy who doomed the Death Guard to fall to Nurgle

he did a uhhhh

a LITTLE bit of trolling

The way I see it

That’s a positive

Papa Nurgle is a welcoming man

jade holly

in the 30k plotline atm he's attacking the hollow mountain

# spare osprey used to be known as Typhon

This is also entirely because the HH writers were like

"Yeah we cant have a guy named after an actual disease when he was a marine lets just name him Typhon for the first half."

jade holly
#

I hate myself

jade holly
#

I read Horus Heresy as Horus Herussy

arctic talon
#

Tbh typhon isn’t a bad name

#

Well

#

It isn’t that bad of a name

jade holly
#

I mean, especially if you know who Typhon was in mythology

#

The bane of Olympus

#

The beast who made the Olympians flee Greece

storm jungle
#

I mean

#

its more that uh

#

GW literally opens a list of greek monster/myth names

#

and puts them into everything

#

you really should see the HH marine vehicle/weapons name list

#

Typhus is a Psyker?

#

Am I reading this right?

Hes a lil wizard

#

Chaos is getting mopped in this battle

Imperium is at 26 and Chaos is at 19

#

Hang on

It’s now 30-19

I have no idea how this game is played

I see round 3 30-23 and each team has 4 “command points”

yeah i entirely ignore tabletop

#

too many numbers

spare osprey
#

yeah

jade holly

I think in terms of battles, units are only allowed to hit on certain number rolls?

spare osprey
#

i need to learn

#

been in the hobby for like 5 years and still know jackshit of how to play

#

i just enjoy fallen

jade holly
#

I’m gonna go back to readin up on Typhus

#

This man is pretty damn cool

vast heart
storm jungle
#

Yep

#

Fulgrim basically doomed his legion by himself by getting the Laer sword

#

thats more or less the pinpoint position in where it all starts

jade holly
#

You know this story and the Isstvan III Atrocity is making me wonder

#

What was the first shot of the Horus Heresy

#

What battle or event caused the war to begin?

vast heart
#

Would've been the Nurglite blade nearly killing Horus I think, there wasn't even really a heresy until that point iirc

storm jungle
#

^

#

Horus' fall is instant after that point as his mind gets corrupted and he heel-turns into a supervillain

vast heart
#

I realized the other day

#

Lorgar won

#

Like outright Lorgar is the only primarch who actually got what they wanted out of life

storm jungle
#

theres a book scene where some Word Bearers outright say this too btw

vast heart
#

idk I just find that funny the simpering little chaos bitch is the only person having a good time in 40k its just so appropriate

jade holly
#

Gods to worship?

storm jungle
#

Word Bearers are absolutely amazing

jade holly
#

Besides Corvus becoming a Corvus

#

The warp did a funny with him

storm jungle
#

people shit on them for memes but they are just mad that the WB dont deny what they are and are just pure evil for the sake of being pure evil and worshipping chaos and you gotta respect them for it lol

jade holly
#

So would you say Lorgar is the most irredeemable Primarch? Or would that be Fulgrim

crisp heath
#

Chaos Warriors in space

vast heart
# jade holly Gods to worship?

Yeah basically, he got gods, I think he's technically the strongest primarch now that he's essentially a chaos undivided daemon primarch drawing on all 4 and he got to kill his abusive dad in revenge for humiliating him

vast heart
jade holly
#

Well tbf he got yoinked into being a literal toxic gasbag against his own will

vast heart
#

I mean true, I suppose that wasn't his fault

if I were in his position I’d be miffed too

I also like perturabo and fulgrim and find Vulkan and Guilleman boring as sin I think I might just be a primarch hipster

Still looked cool

People like to shit on Perty but he's one of the only 'human' Primarchs that feels like a character and not a plot device

Honestly depends on who's writing him but yeah

because it's one of the funniest events in the setting

jade holly

#

I need to run this down real quick

#

he isnt though is the thing

#

this lore has been kinda warped by people for years lol

#

this event was awhile ago

#

and Lorgar is active and doing whatever the hell he pleases

next garden
#

Yeah but its funny

vast heart
#

That thing has been mad exaggerated tho hasn't it

storm jungle
#

I mean no its misinformation

storm jungle
#

because he tried to attack Lorgar once, and then just kinda left and Lorgar was unaffected

#

yet people assume hes scared shitless for no reason

spare osprey
#

tbf he would be scared

next garden
#

No he kicked the shit out of Lorgar. Lorgar had to run away

spare osprey
#

he almost lost their first battle

next garden
#

Hide behind a ward

vast heart
#

Yeah that confused me bc I thought Lorgar hypothetically was the strongest primarch in current lore, doesn't make a lot of sense that Corvus can just "Crawwwwwwling in my skinnnnnn" his ass a bird outfit and somehow beat him on home turf

spare osprey
next garden
#

Corax probably isn't still stalking Lorgars tower but he did in fact beat up Lorgar such that Lorgar had to lock the door behind him.

jade holly
#

I like how Typhus got pissy at Mortarion for making his home look like, well, his home

#

Mortarion’s just trying to be a good father lmao

next garden
jade holly
#

Primarch privilege smh

vast heart
#

Also I really hope we get Daemon perty/lorgar as dual releases as well as Corax/Russ because that would be such a good "Ornsteign and Smough" duo as well as the Norse symbology of wolves and ravens from Odin

storm jungle
#

Russ is deffo next.

#

GW will go with the primarch and chapter that makes money

vast heart
#

It works thematically and leaves you a Kahn/Vulkan release to round it out

#

and those two contrast well

crisp heath
#

What if we get the ADEPTUS ARBITES in Darktide?

spare osprey
#

nah they're all dead on tertium

storm jungle
crisp heath
storm jungle
#

nah dont

#

im joking

crisp heath
#

It's just a good event because Corax is like "I've realized that I'm inherently tied to the warp and that my nature is rage and vengence." To which Lorgar is like "Oh cool, so you've come to swear yourself to Chaos."

"No."
And then there's a fight that's really more like Corax just supplexing Lorgar so hard he knocks out the Word Bearers watching them with the schockwave.

#

🙏

crisp heath
storm jungle
#

its the same as how people want a space marine yet it would literally be playing Ogryn but with Veteran abilities

#

then again Marinecels are awful

jade holly
#

Most likely class would be like a Callidus Assassin or Admech

storm jungle
#

assassins make no sense

#

they are solo operators

jade holly
#

Fair

storm jungle
#

and like one-man kill-units

jade holly
#

Then that leaves only an Admech

storm jungle
#

the characters joke about them a lot tho so lol

jade holly
crisp heath
#

An Assassin is also leagues above what the current classes are capable of

vast heart
#

Assassins should be its own seperate game tbh

#

You've got a sniper, stealth specialist, berserker(functionally a tank) and a "Mage" who specialises in poisons

crisp heath
#

Like in terms of deadliness, we're talking about someone who is probably more capable than the average space marine, and is often dispatched specifically to deal with problematic space marines

storm jungle
#

Kinda

#

Assassins can easily die too

#

minus maybe Eversor but they are basically drug fueled Detroit citizens so

vast heart
storm jungle
#

oof thats an oldie

vast heart
#

I'm thinking essentially that but with assassins instead

storm jungle
#

Im sure it will happen at some point

#

inb4 its a phone game

Callidus also use a drug besides polymorphine that can make them regenerate

#

I want a Waaaghtide game

Where you play Orks fighting Orks

#

I do hate Primarchs.

so I approve.

jade holly
vast heart
# jade holly Then that leaves only an Admech

I think it would be genuinely stupid for them not to include an admech class at this stage basically all of the groundwork is laid for it and they're the only major imperium faction not represented (we're gonna pretend the oggie is a space marine for this purpose)

crisp heath
#

They're both extremely powerful but marines are supposed to be well-rounded while Assassins are a bit more glass-cannonny

#

An Assassin can kill anything, but is more likely to get killed back

I feel like any major event in your lore that relies on "Something happened here, we'll figure out what happened later when we use it to create shit for you to buy" is doomed to not meet expectations at very best

A fun idea could be a Blood Angels successor that just's one mentally unshakable marine who keeps 900 or so Death Company in stasis and just unleashes them on worlds he deems too unstable to continue existing
