Mr Let me hold this haunted demon sword cause I’m the only one who has a strong enough will to resist it
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
How is Fulgrim the worst primarch when Angron is literally right there
Many such cases
See: Logan Grimnar
Angron will just kill you and move on. Fulgrim, on the other hand...
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
There is no "right" primarch, just varying degrees of wrong primarch
The only sure thing is Magnus did nothing wrong
They all have their benefits and drawbacks
Mostly drawbacks
Vulcan reminding Konrad that his hammer also functions as a hammer was comedy gold
Fulgrim would lose and go have a sad touchy feely party lol
Quite literally

Especially now that he’s part of Slaanesh’s crew
explode another virus bomb in his face, i allow it
That’s all he’s been doing for however long
Based Rylanor
Idc anything about Fulgrim he’s so lame
Fulgrim been hosting pity parties 24/7 even before the Heresy
Idk I liked Fulgrim
How
nah i'm sure #2 was fine
Even his design is bad
Makes you wonder how tf Fulgrim killed Ferrus
That's subjective at best
The only good thing he has rn is the colors
not at all
Nah #11 was where it was at
I want Fulgrim (snakified) to grab me by the ankle and thrash me violently into a marble pillar
Fulgrim parties < Drukhari parties
And I'd advise you to steer clear of fitting too well into the "Guy named Kharn" stereotype 
Fulgrim became the first monster girl
Why
Curze was the first monster girl primarch
Magnus become a less cool General Radahn
Because they're the worst of the World Eaters fans
Leman fucked off to party hardy
i think all the primarchs look fine. same as the legions. aesthetics are just liked by different peeps
Macho and annoying
Which primarch is Vriska
It's not fun for anyone
Damn looks like I’m Macho and Annoying
So are Wolrd Eaters red or white and blue?
I’m a certified Kharn fanboy
His Audio Books are so incredibly good
it's 2 differing schemes for the same army
Chosen of Khorn is one of the absolute best Audio Books ever
That won’t be confusing at all
I like how no one even mentions Jataghi Kahn
Counterpoint, Sanguinius.
Cause he seems like he doesn’t do anything
Underrated tbh
Ideally I wouldn't mention any primarchs because they're all annoying and stupdi
Because he never sold
and you had the warhound colors before that
And it always boils down to MCU arguments
What
many legions had a large difference of colors in their history
except like
I just like Primarchs cause I like mythology and they’re basically just deities to their Space Marine angels
no, they're shitty action heroes and are very boring to talk about constantly because they're rarely consistent 
I mean that’s also true
but it doesn’t negate the first thing
Sanguinius is actually the best Primarch and blood angels are the best loyalist
Weird way to spell Imperial Fist
Fist yourself
Christ here it goes again
Yea whatever
As long as we agree Orks have the best Waaagh
i'm willing to be the fence sitter at all times
True
let’s just forget about War of the Beast tho
Just pick a faction whos lore and aesthetic you like.
Easy
Abaddon has the right of it, kill all primarchs
I wish there was a Horror book about a Blood Angel absolutely going apeshit on a heretic ship
They all kill aliens
Vulcan is evaporated rn
I like ultradepression Guilliman. Even if I think brining primarchs back is bad for 40k.
I prefer Cato and Calgar
idk if it's that bad for 40k
just don't bring all of them back
that's the bad stuff
Cato has gotten better but he fucking sucked for a while.
How many chaos are still alive?
Calgar should have died at vigilus
Nah bringing the Lion back was a gigachad choice
Guiliman took one look at modern imperium and immediately fell catatonic
7 ish
Him surviving was defo a plot moment but we got a nice comic out of it so it's fine
Wait when did Lion come back? As in what year (our year) was he brought back in lore
this year
5 months ago
very recent thing
Oh still fairly fresh
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
yes
Grimdark was cool when real life was good. The world is going to shit, so redemption and hope are in
he had his beauty sleep
He serves no purpose right now with Guilliman back. And it would have shown that even with primaris Chaos still got hands.
his book was fantastic tho
He’s leading the Blood Angels rn
tbf he did
Unlike Calgar, who lost his.
He's Nihilus batman
Then how about we kill Fulgrim
Nah he’s about to do a fuckload of horrific things to Chaos
And if he’s dead how about we kill his corpse
im not sure you can kill off a Daemon Primarch without repeating what Emps did to horus
Calgar?
Lion
same situation i'm afraid
Yeah Lion is back
they just come back
He's straight up called the Knight of Nihilus lol
I was talking about Calgar serving no purpose
Just teleports around killing things
Lion is a G
the Flawed Knight aswell
I mean Calgar still has a purpose
I don’t think anyone can hate the lion
He's the UM head honcho
they pulled a lot of Arthurian references in his book
This
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"
Calgar still has Guilimans powerfists right
"references"
more like straight transcripts lmao
No
whole book is great
was about to say
The entire Risen cast is just Arthurian names
Half of them reenact literal arthurian tales
they up and have the moment where the green knight is beheaded
I need more books with the Risen. They all had so much more personality than 99% of other non White Scars marines.
and you have the emps as the fisher king
oh dude
White Scars don’t sell
the risen made the book for me
We need a book dedicated to FUCKING TYBEROS
The white scars HH books made them a lot more popular.
They were so fantastically written
Tyberos would be boring as sin
It'd be like an Iron Snakes book but without Abnett to save it
Do you think Kharn is boring
He is now
Because Tyberos is just Loyalist Kharn on lots of crack
Tyberos the Red Wake?
Yea
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"
Exactly why we need a Space Sharks book
True

Kriegers do apparently
Even when the skins are bad. 
Yea they had that one book where 8 million of them died in one fight
Skins look fine
I agree
I love the preacher/psyker one

Gabriel is Blood Angels right
Whose the other one
I haven’t brushed up on lore for the Blood Angels and successor chapters
Did the Lion come out of the Astronomicon (is that what the gps North Star is called?) when he returned?
No he was asleep under The Rock 
the fleet/homeworld (or a chunk of it) of the Dark Angels
we don't have the full details yet

nope
he woke up in a forest
walked
and was back
For the joke, there is a Sabaton song called “Lion From the North”
About a Swedish Captain or something
Lexi
Yes
Mostly
Good 
I am still trying to find what I want to focus on
Way ahead of you
if you go random topic to random topic you will be extremely lost
Just trying to figure out which faction to focus on first
i almost went salamanders when i was starting out
Reading Chaos Lore 
Between Imperial Fist, Death Guard and Salamanders
weird time
A lot of daddy issues
I suggest again nailing it down
I'd say look into Sallies and Death Guard first
Fist look good on surface but are extremely generic
Death Guard for sure is turning out to be the one I want to go into fully
That’s why I align with Traitor Guard MORE
Again big recommend
very cheap book too
listened to an audio drama with a death guard marine a bit ago
really good stuff
dude was very happy
Are there any Traitor Guard books?
yeah here we go
thats the one
Significant parts of Traitor General in the Gaunt's Ghosts series are from the perspective of an Etogaur in the nascent Sons of Sek.
otherwise not much, traitor guard are not a major faction so they dont get central role books
I wish I could sleep for ten thousand years
same
Dreadnought moment
I need to compile who each of the operatives on the mourningstar are
This is Molsk I think
Should I take this to #darktide-pics-vids
Love that book
its pretty great
Lmao I always told myself id do something like that to just for the meme of it
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
Man I gotta take notes 
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
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
honestly if you do it in a humorous "Hey guys I got bored and made this" way it would be pretty good lol
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 
But I'll defo make one since there's not too much to do
get some rest buddy 
Rest is forbidden, I'm like an administratum scribe on one of those new logistics hubs Bobby made
@green loom being assigned to those places is a fate worse than death
I'll take it!
Is Ghaz alive
Yeah
Or like how will the orcs bring him back just WAAAAAAAH
Got his head chopped off, then got better
Ain’t he like turbo unalive rn?
And bigger
Man I love Ghaz
Thank orkimedes
He stitched his head on a new massive body
After Ragnar beheaded him
I really wanna see Ragnaork
I’d say Orkz are the only faction in 40k you can’t really hate
Besides being turbo British
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
are you playing the one that shouts about a beloved
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?
Yea
You're playing a psyker
It’s like inner crazy dialogue
Insanity, paranoia and paranormal bullshit are status quo
Well some aren't but it's generally not a good trip for the brain
You try looking into the eye of terror
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
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
Yea it’s just the voices of Chaos trying to snatch your soul nothing big
The Enforcer personalities are the only "sane" ones, but they're brainwashed imperials 
So it's arguable
Tbh I’d rather be that than a normal Psyker
Ok but
Follow us on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/fatshark

Loner is based
I think he's talking about Baross
i kept going every match for 2 weeks like; yo dont you hear that voice in the distance?
You’re just becoming a Psyker
thats exactly the voice my psyker uses
Send this to them
i shall add the voices to cc:
Oh shit, thats a sexy pfp you got there

How good is the Mortarion: The Pale King story?
It’s fine from what I’ve heard
Scalped to hell
Meanwhile Mortarion The Pale King is only $19 Hardback
Mortarion the pale king is more recent and got a bigger print
Lords of silence I wish would get a reprint
Are custodes miserable?
Not really, they’re mostly content with their life
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
Problem is I never do audio books nor do I even know if I have an app for them
I thought they mourned what it had become since it wasn’t emperoers vision
Oh
I’m watching a video that’s a 4 way battle of Death Guard and World Eaters(?), Vs Dark Angels and Ultramarines

If you want emotion then look at World Eaters
Those bois
Be
ANGRY
They’re decently emotive, more then the average marine
The only real people custodes have normal conversations with are other custodes
Or sisters of silence
What about Sisters of Silence

They did before they found angron
💀
That was the beginning of the end
We’re they called that before they met angron?
One talks with Greyfax fairly normally
War Hounds iirc
Like did the emperor name them or the primarchs
War hounds
Gotcha
How do Legions get their names?
Primarch names them
Yeah I’m wondering that too
Besides primarchs renaming them
They had one based on how they fought usually
The early legions were named after stuff they did mostly
Or they got one as a “joke”
What were the word bearers original name?
Like the thousand sons being called that because they were founded
Or based on an event or part of their Primarch?
Death Guard were Dusk Raiders, cus they attacked at Dusk
With 1000 marines
Like White Scars
Imperial heralds
Imperial Heralds iirc
Fitting
Ultramarines were called the war born
Cringe
Dark angels were just called “the first”
Death Guard were called Duskraiders
BA were the Revenant legion
Not awful
Or something like that
Revenant legion as a name was mostly due to how many times they should have died
How about the space wolves
But just didn’t lol
Don’t have a known one iirc
Interesting
Theoretically every Primarch would be the same age wouldn’t they?
Yeah
Perty is older I think
Space wolves got a name
Cause of time shit
Why tf does The Lion look so damn old compared to them all
It’s just “the rout”
Nowadays? Because he wasn’t in stasis
Back then idk
He went to the rock that makes you old
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?
He's still out there
Lemans status is unknown
As of Warzone Fenris
He went into the eye of terror
Iirc
No one has heard of him since
Or he comes back, gives mortarian a swirly and saves the eldar god
Prob rolling with the bois
Do primarchs need to eat and sleep?
Prob not
Or is he just eternally running through the place at sonic speed
They sorta need sleep
I know Leman eats and drink
They def need food
Based on some challenges he did with The Emperor
And the Emp got so damn petty over it

Is it true that the wolf is smarter then he lets on?
Idfk
Lemen is decently smart
He’s just very brash
And loud
He just like me
He plays up his stupidity
Smart in that he's smart enough to know he's an ass, and chooses to be such
yes
But he’s def not the most idiotic primarch
Doubt he’s as smart as say, Rogal, Robin Guile, or Perty
Yeah I heard something like that
there are many moments when he understands he fucked around a bit too much
Yeah he’s no tactical genius
I like that
But he’s smart enough to understand the situation at hand properly
Dumbest would prob be Angron
Playing the brute so people underestimate you is a cool trait
For
like that time he blew up a hostile ship while it was being boarded by some of Lion's sons
He’s the most devout
I wouldn’t say that translates to high intellect
Tho I doubt he’s dumb
Just not a genius
I mean then again he was the architect of the whole damn Heresy
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
They’re smol
Judaism and Islam were around lounger than it
Like
Imperial fanboys dont like anything that isnt a gothic junkyard explosion
I say this as a Christian
They’re a tiny faction
Oldest I’m pretty sure is Hinduism
Makes sense
You get what I’m saying though yeah
There probably my favorite faction
I just think their tech looks a bit too out of place
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
Too smooth and clean
yeah because they are advanced
thats the point
Their tech looks in place within the context of their faction and place in the universe
Tau have weird fans
I don’t like how they talk about the tau
Their tech is designed entirely from a technological standpoint
Or tau women
I love me some gothic holy designs, but I will admit some people go overboard
Very weird
also again
the imperium isnt the center of aesthetic for the setting
theres a lot of non-gothic shit in 40k
Orcs are
Look at Orks
Lessss gooo
They’re mad Max
for example, Grimm do you know of House Van Saar
Eldar
Sounds Eldar, is it regal, elegant detailing?
What the fuck is that
Damn
no its an underhive gang on the planet of Necromunda

Aren’t space dwarves a thing now?
they always were
They always were
Lol
lmao
They just became a tabletop faction again
Dwarves are always based
Especially the Dwemer
even those are actually elves but that’s beside the point
Does Death Guard have their own Titan?
In a game there is
But titans are seperate from marines
Oh then no
They have their own organizations
yes
I imagine size
Less go
Ok then
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 💀
Do tyranids adapt to necron weapons?
Prob not considering they aren’t able to find genes that are resilient to them
Not really
That’s my guess at least
Sick
You can’t adapt to getting molecularly deconstructed
Necrons are cool
Kick their ass skeleton man
And also funny
Or having your nervous system turned to ash
Just a bunch of grumpy old robots who want to be left alone
Can inperium use necron weapons? Or is that heretical?
i thought it's like
VERY
I know they won’t get them easy
Heretical
super excruciating
If it ain’t made by humanity it’s Heretical
Only Deathwatch does and its only for like melee weapons
yeah i mean deathwatch have a few
Destroyer weapons yes
necron tech is so advanced that its basically magic to us
But normal necron guns no
Gauss rifles are pretty painless
It’ll hurt for a bit and then nothing
Not to mention Necrons have enslaved GODS
Grimm, do you know of the Celestial Orrery
Synaptic disintegrators you won’t have a nervous system or brain

To hurt lol
The Celestial Orrery is a device located at the heart of the Necron Crownworld of Thanatos and is considered one of the galaxy's greatest treasures. It was crafted by the artisans of the Oruscar Dynasty long before the War in Heaven and is beyond any price in artistic value alone. This machine consists of a web of holograms and Necrodermis wit...

Yeah but the necrons managing it are thankfully sane
and also defend it from necrons that wanna go full Death Note protag and poke everything on it
I doubt they’d wanna genocide the universe they live in
and cypher has one and he's super imperial
yeah here we go
Typhus
super bitch
he also has a massive infectious plague bug hive on his back lol
and alongside erebus damned Luther. hate em both
And based on what I read… his armor is his flesh now?
yeah tbf you can't really take most of the death guard out of their armor
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

used to be known as Typhon
Papa Nurgle is a welcoming man
Calas Typhon
in the 30k plotline atm he's attacking the hollow mountain
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."

I hate myself
don't forget the tank either
I mean, especially if you know who Typhon was in mythology
The bane of Olympus
The beast who made the Olympians flee Greece
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

Hes a lil wizard
Damn
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 think in terms of battles, units are only allowed to hit on certain number rolls?
i need to learn
been in the hobby for like 5 years and still know jackshit of how to play
i just enjoy fallen
Fulgrim is the only daemon primarch who wasn't directly cocked and balled by their first captain right?
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
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?
Would've been the Nurglite blade nearly killing Horus I think, there wasn't even really a heresy until that point iirc
^
Horus' fall is instant after that point as his mind gets corrupted and he heel-turns into a supervillain
I realized the other day
Lorgar won
Like outright Lorgar is the only primarch who actually got what they wanted out of life
theres a book scene where some Word Bearers outright say this too btw
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
Gods to worship?
I need to look into word bearers, they're the only legion other than Raven guard I just don't know shit about aside ravenguard who I'm decently sure just don't have lore
Word Bearers are absolutely amazing
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
So would you say Lorgar is the most irredeemable Primarch? Or would that be Fulgrim
Chaos Warriors in space
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
Mortarian imo he's just a broody bitch at all times it's hard to like him even as someone who simps hard over daemons and primarchs in general
Well tbf he got yoinked into being a literal toxic gasbag against his own will
I mean true, I suppose that wasn't his fault
if I were in his position I’d be miffed too
Typhus, mortal herald of Nurgle
Yeah I’m reading up on him now
And a fucking asshole
Tbf I unironically think Magnus did nothing wrong so I may just be biased
Just the worst
Dude’s honestly pretty damn cool
No he sucks
Fair
I also like perturabo and fulgrim and find Vulkan and Guilleman boring as sin I think I might just be a primarch hipster
I love Perturabo, he's such a petulant manchild.
he doesn't have one

Thats fan art
Could’ve sword he did?
Nah
Like a whole story for it too
Nah
tbf
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
i have seen some WB try and push themselves as sorta messiahs and the only hope for humanity
He could have been one of the best if he wasn't so....himself.
Let me guess, Lorgar sees himself as a Pariah?
Have you guys actually read the passage where we find out Corax is all warpy now and that he's decided to absolutely ruin Lorgar's life
because it's one of the funniest events in the setting
That sounds hilarious and based as Hell
I need to run this down real quick
Unironically spawn camping Lorgar for 10k years.
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
Yeah but its funny
That thing has been mad exaggerated tho hasn't it
I mean no its misinformation
yep
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
tbf he would be scared
No he kicked the shit out of Lorgar. Lorgar had to run away
he almost lost their first battle
Hide behind a ward
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
konrad saved him waaaaaay back
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.
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
Typhus can't get over the fact that Morty is still higher up in the Nurgle hierarchy than him.
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
It works thematically and leaves you a Kahn/Vulkan release to round it out
and those two contrast well
nah they're all dead on tertium
Lol, I’m downloading gonna see for myself
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.
its in the files but not on the shop yet
Best scene 10/10
Gaming either way 😆
I'd rather hive ganger tbh I think arbites would end up playing too similarly to vet or ogryn
esp based on the weapons they use
also yeah like
Very nice
🙏
Stoked to try out this game for the first time
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
Most likely class would be like a Callidus Assassin or Admech
Fair
and like one-man kill-units
Then that leaves only an Admech
the characters joke about them a lot tho so lol
And Ratling snipers
An Assassin is also leagues above what the current classes are capable of
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
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
Kinda
Assassins can easily die too
minus maybe Eversor but they are basically drug fueled Detroit citizens so
Anyone ever play Brute Force on Xbox way back in the day?
oof thats an oldie
I'm thinking essentially that but with assassins instead
Callidus also use a drug besides polymorphine that can make them regenerate
Assassins are just nuts with their toys
You cant regenerate when you are surrounded and get lynched
its what happens in Kingmaker almost to one of the protag assassins
Actually wouldn't be surprised lmao
i literally just want to shoot him in front of the space wolves to see the hope leave their eyes
Good luck, that man’s stubbornness makes him more durable than any other armor
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)
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
40k fandom is 66% WHAT MUSIC DOES EACH PRIMARCH LIKE? PRIMARCH POWER LEVELS! WHAT NON-PRIMARCH CAN DEFEAT PRIMARCHS!
Would be hilarious if Oggy got a makeshift Space Marine set
This is the reason i dont go to r40klore anymore
But make it fit like a bikini and I'm sold
literally piles upon piles of dumbass primarch questions
literally MCU-tier fanboys
that was spot on comparison
Good thing I found out about Typhus then huh
mcu-ification
At least he ain’t a Primarch
And then the other 33% are the ones calling you knife ear unironically lmao
Primarchs have genuinely ruined this setting lol
I would love an ogryn skin that's just like old, banged up ultramarine armor chained to their body with with like gaps in in it where they couldn't salvage pieces
HH should've stayed in its 'A giant cataclysmic civil war happened. It was so long ago we forgot all the details'
you know what just to fix the setting, i will not hesitate to go back into time, bitchslap erebus and the emperor, and after slapping erebus shoot him in the head five times
the real consideration
Man considering I’m just getting into 40k and am interested in Death Guard makes me feel like I made a bad choice of interest 
you really didnt
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
Death Guard got lots of love in the last few years
I mean in the sense that people seem to hate the marines in general
DG are the most consistently updated chaos space marine army
You give the fans too much time to speculate and they'll write better lore than you can come up with on your own I've seen it happen
People hate Marines due to them being overexposed by GW and being marketing boys. This is usually for the loyalists.
there is a saying love the art not the artist
so you can like the death guard without being interested in Mortarion
I have never met a person that hates chaos/traitor marines.
probably because uh
they also barely get any attention

nah man
Besides maybe Emperor’s Children and Fulgrim
like whatever faction you want

IH fans might
The thing that gets me with chaos is that it's basically one of the few things in the setting that gives you hope even if that hope can be crushed easily by the masters you decided to serve yourself
Nah deathguard are a cool faction I just can't stand how much of an edgelord Morty is, in my headcanon he literally has the exact same voice and mannerisms as Revenant from Apex
Its okay nobody remembers they exist
Hey Darin de Paul is n amazing voice actor
He’s my personal fav actor atm
Only play alpha legion if you don't mind hearing the single alpha legion meme for the rest of your tabletop career
People with OC chapters are always cool even if it's their lore is tacky. Hell yeah I love when people express their innate creative through existing things they love
ehhh
is as usual great in it
most of the time
yo can we roast how shit alpha legion lore is
Because I've started reading books and let me tell you
it is shit
And Loba is finally being called out for being a dumbass and a horrible person
I literally met a guy who's Chapter was modelled after the Israeli IDF

And it took the worst character in Apex to do so

I fucking hate Valkyrie in Apex
Such a horribly written character
Yeah I've burnt out on the apex story they've added too many characters and done absolutely nothing with them
Why are Seer, vantage and newcastle even here
shout out to my boy Viper for being a real one 💀
No wonder he’d rather die against Cooper than be home with his kid

LMAO
I had a conversation with Maggie once where the chapters are not really the best sometimes
Oh mantis warriors
other times you have the "Black Cherubim" with the proto gloriana that all gloriana's were based on
they arent THIS aggressively asian in lore if that helps
She's literally just a gross mysogynist frat bro but its apparently totally cool bc shes gay. Like no you need to write more to a character than top gun references and jokes about how much ass she eats
^
Not to mention she tried riding off of her father’s legacy instead of trying to be her own thing
as an asian i'm offended on how asian this looks
And she only exists to flirt with Loba and be drunk
like you could be you know a bit more subtle with it but why
Bloodhound is a cool space-norse themed non-binary hunter and literally nobody hates them for example.
Probably because they weren't shoved into the setting and actually had a good backstory and planning
straight up samurai armor
It’s the flag on the back isn’t it?
or the crimson marines, who hunt jews.
that was a fun one to read
ohh they hunt tyranids that's good
Dude fr Hounds whole arc was starting to get really good and they just binned it the instant they got with Fuse bc fanservice ig
And I thought my theoretical legion/chapter based on Orishas from Africa was bad
you know what i'm talking about

please tell me crimson marines are on a wiki somewhere
yeah, the Juden, a tzeentch based xeno race
Now I think I had a more tame idea
they got taken down a bit ago
Cowards I need to read this
Man they really went there huh
yup
and I thought my IDF Chapter witness was worse
What if I just make a legion/chapter and jsut rip it off straight from SCP
fuses new heirloom that has a guitar pick bloodhound made for him is very cute
No one would notice
Tzaangors control the media wake up sheeple

Should’ve been his arm
Wait did Fuse's heirloom get added? might have to play again
I did see a Native American themed chapter once that started out almost reading like a Native person themself made it, but it quickly devolved into actual racism, where they were doing things like them not wearing helmets because it messed up their feathers
Yeah it's the classic axe guitar
a tamer one but the Blissful Angels
a chapter with a moon sized space diamond that projected propaganda
So the sphere in California
and who cured the black rage

in fact not only did they cure it
they made it a benefit
they also of course have a few star forts and a gloriana
oh hell yeah. Lemme just say as the resident australian: most aussie accents in media are legit dogshit, like I've never heard an american do an even 50% accurate aussie accent
Fuse is perfect its incredible what happens when you get a real australian and dont make them ham it up too much
something that is literally genetically ingrained got cured?
yes
but it's ok cause they have hot nuns as serfs
they also employ multiple imperial saints
Surprised I haven’t heard a Legion based on Rome and Emperor Augustus or First Consul Julius Caesar
Yeah you have to see for yourself it's ******* awesome
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
Tyranids? 900 crazy marines. Chaos? 900 crazy marines. Any problem can be solved by releasing my pet psychos, and then I have to round them all back up and put them in their nap boxes.
Reminds me of that one SCP of those wolf men soliders they keep in stasis until they need to release them
they're great
Show the hot nuns
You can’t mention them then not show them

Death Company from other chapters start going missing, it's this guy skimming a few off the top to replenish his numbers and pretending they were from his chapter the whole time
you know what's hotter?
The barrel of my gun after I'm done shooting you
"I don't know how I haven't lost any of my brothers in the last 400 years, maybe they're just too strong to die?"
Nah, the only thing hotter than me is the star Betelgeuse
Ask too many questions? 900 crazy marines.
