Send them to the corpse starch factory

I saw one guy post a pic

Remember when the situation got so bad at some point that GW had to make a public statement that the Imperium is bad

Any person that consider the Imperium as the right course, or even the necessary course deserve nothing more than the Imperial fate

Horrible mary sue slop chapter

"Oh yeah they have members from all the legions, and each company represents a different legion, they also have like 50000 marines and actively hold off the Eye of Terror"

"innocence proves nothing"

arctic talon
#

That’s the inquisition 🤓

#

Which is another level of corrupt

warm notch
#

Makes me wonder if it was preferable to have the gangers than the enforcers in the torrent

#

Even tho it’s probably not that much different

verbal path
#

Being innocent doesn't mean Chaos hasn't infected you. Sorry. shotgun

arctic talon
spare osprey

#

But the gangers and enforcers were probably comparable

#

Odds are they also died alongside each other fighting the water cartel and cult of admonition LUL

what is necromunda?

spare osprey
arctic talon
#

It’s also a very high production hive world

spare osprey
#

Makes a lot of stuff

#

And produces marines for the imperial fists

urban spire

also a tabletop game

#

Oh god how is a hive world so bad that it gets the addendum “extra shitty”

spare osprey

By being necromunda

warm notch
#

Welp time for another lore rabbit hole

#

I’ll see you all in therapy

verbal path
urban spire
#

it's only about one of the hives on said hive world

#

and it's kind of a regular sized hive at that

arctic talon
urban spire
#

i wonder what folks eat in the torrent

verbal path
#

Necromundas got it all. Brutal House enforcers, gangers hired by the houses, chaos cults, ||genestealers||

warm notch
#

The real world allegories are . . . so unsubtle

#

I love it

arctic talon
#

The big gangs have direct connections

#

To the Noble houses

each noble house has its own sponsored gang

Along with the ash waste enforcers lol

The faction

spare osprey
jade holly
spare osprey

cause the DA sent out an official statement to every chapter of the unforgiven telling them to not believe the rumors that the lion had returned

and i wanna know what that means in the long run

same for the fallen

You think Wolf Totem will be blasting when Jaghatai Khan rolls back in with his bois?

so for DA out in the wider imperium

arctic talon
spare osprey
#

they think the whole thing is false

#

yeah here we go

urban spire
#

if the lions such hot shit how come he hasn't been around for ten thousand years

near wasp
#

Im sure they retracted that when they saw him

spare osprey
#

while a party is going on

#

they're technically still there for those 10 hours

urban spire
#

i have never hosted a party

spare osprey
#

so by this logic i am making up

green loom
spare osprey
#

the lion has been around for the past 10,000 years

jade holly
#

I wonder who the last loyalist Primarch to show back up out of nowhere will be

urban spire
#

nor have i heard of anyone taking a ten hour nap

jade holly
#

My money’s on either Vulkan or Leman Russ

urban spire
#

lady loyalist?

#

oh last

near wasp
jade holly
jade holly
#

But yeah either Vulkan or Leman will be the last Primarch to the party

#

rogue Gorge was Obv the fist cause Ultramarines

spare osprey
#

the BA are being lil butts

#

and planning on if lion turns on Dante

arctic talon
#

BA are absurdly paranoid lol

jade holly
#

BA’s are just salty their Primarch got bodied

urban spire
#

no such thing as a good space marine

jade holly
spare osprey
#

idk i certainly prefer a marine who delivers a baby to any imperial fist

urban spire
#

why would he deliver a baby to an imperial fist

#

why do the fists want babies

near wasp
#

I mean ba are paranoid but like if your uncle suddenly showed up on your lawn and started spraying pesticides on your lawn youd be a bit concerned

spare osprey
hasty coral
#

Although the pragmatist legions like the iron warriors and iron fists generally do ok ish

#

Even the warriors don’t fuck with chaos and generally are just built on rivalry rather than fanaticism

green loom
#

They do

#

IN fact

#

Fuck with chaos

#

A lot at that

storm jungle
#

they are basically hypocrites yeah

green loom
#

Wonder where they operate smilecat

plush mason
#

like. dont the iron warriors make a shit ton of daemon engines?

green loom
#

Yes

#

And live in the Eye of Terror

plush mason
#

yeah they have to fuck with chaos

green loom
#

Perturabo is also a daemon prince

plush mason
#

ofc the warriors are nothing next to the word bearers in that reguard lol

green loom
#

Yeah but that's like saying a serial killer isn't on the level of like, Jigsaw

near wasp
#

Theyd much rather grind you down with waves of slaves than summon daemons

arctic talon
#

Depends on the warband

plush mason
#

do many of the iron warriors worship chaos?

#

or is it just the old "choas is just a tool" stuff

green loom
#

Latter is probably not uncommon among the older IW

#

Former is probably commonplace among "new" warriors seeing as they're recruited from slaves on a daemon world lol

plush mason
#

makes sense

#

ofc the IW in charge of turning those slaves into new brothers could easily just teach that chaos is a tool and they must worship papa pert

green loom
#

If we're being real they'd probably promote some chaos worship since it can get them some tough ass followers if they get enough blessings

plush mason
#

pert is undivied right?

arctic talon
#

Yeah

near wasp
#

Since we got a book with cawl and bill we should get one where perty and vashtor have a biuld off

green loom
#

I really want to see a video of Elysians dropping to "Welcome to the Jungle"

plush mason
#

that reminds me. has Nurgle ever tried to take Catachan?

#

seems like the world has some stuff he would want

green loom
#

There was a daemonic invasion of catachan during the onset of the great rift

#

The vegetation handled it

plush mason
#

good old Catachan

#

makes most other death worlds look like pleasure worlds

normal light
#

Like yeah it a shit hole to live in but

#

NO ONE CAN GET YOU Out there

plush mason
#

i wonder how the nids would fair

arctic talon
#

That planet has totally not nids on it

green loom
#

The greatest favour a navy captain can do for a Catachan native is to offer one orbital bombardment

arctic talon
#

the catachan devil is a nid gone native imo

green loom
#

To clear some living space lol

plush mason
arctic talon
#

Tbf the catachan devil is pretty much a Mawloc

#

actually now that I look at it

plush mason
#

the skull on the pincer lol

arctic talon

it has way bigger claws

Oh

#

From 2021

#

It's definitely an upgrade to "Centipede but big"

plush mason
#

yeah

#

honestly

#

what the hell do the jungle fighters do on their world?

arctic talon
#

heavily fortified settlements

plush mason
#

just hunt the monsters and tell stories?

green loom
#

Live and die

Mostly die

hasty coral
#

The discussion in the meme channel made me consider something

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

How do tyranids effect local genomes

storm jungle
green loom
#

Badly

#

Like

#

Extinction badly

hasty coral
#

I never considered how their biomass and gene manipulation would cause damage

storm jungle
#

Tyranids introduce bacteria during the mid-stage of the invasion process to kill any local life whether its microscopic, bacterial and so on.

hasty coral
#

It must be horrific

hasty coral
#

That’s bad

storm jungle
#

I mean yeah

#

its their whole deal

hasty coral
#

So they literally leave a planet capital B barren

plush mason
#

remember. the first world the tyrainds attacked was let a barren rock. even the metals had be stripped out completely

storm jungle
#

Correct.

hasty coral
#

As I’m not even the smallest life is left

#

That’s

#

Fucking scary

green loom
#

Yeah they kill planets more effectively than any other species bar Destroyer type necrons

storm jungle
plush mason
#

so the nids have come from the right left bottom and now the top of the galaxy right?

storm jungle
#

Yep

#

literally every direction has been checkboxed

arctic talon
#

Catachan face eater my beloved

storm jungle
#

but its important to remember its now from ALL the way to the top

#

The Aximand experience

storm jungle
#

#

Its dumb as fuck but in a good way

I think Darktide is the only game that's kept my interest this genuinely bar the year of Foxhole i played

arctic talon

19 inches of venom

Mary Jane speaks Hungarian at some point

She cares

arctic talon
#

Hey she can try

hasty coral
#

But isn’t nearly as smart as Peter

arctic talon
#

thats what matters

hasty coral
#

And Miles

storm jungle
#

also the best part of the game was her saying she wrote a book on Symkarian culture

#

and only 15 people read it

#

💀

arctic talon
#

💀

storm jungle
#

too relatable

#

LMAO

hasty coral
#

She is well traveled but still pretty dumb compared to her friends

#

Peter, Harry, and Miles are all super geniuses

arctic talon
#

unfortunate for her

#

that only 15 people read it

#

please tell me the 15 is excluding the publisher and editor

storm jungle
#

LMAO

arctic talon
#

if she had one

storm jungle
#

She never says it i think

#

its also because her and Peter are having pressure trying not to lose Aunt May's house to morgages

mfers cannot catch a break

storm jungle

its really well done but not for everybody for uh reasons 💀

#

Spoiler: ||A part of SM 2 has an arc about Mary Jane feeling like a failure and playing second fiddle to SM||

Not kidding

storm jungle
#

Yep

#

but its mostly the symbiote doign that

#

since it preys on your negative emotions

storm jungle
green loom
#

I noticed something funny smilecat

#

People rag on constantly about Guilliman/Yvraine(who've interacted a total of once)
But are quick to deny Celefax loregryn

plush mason
green loom
#

Curious

hasty coral
#

BUT

#

Venom specifically grows to bound enough with Eddie Brock in the comics

storm jungle
#

Yup and also the symbiotes ingame get Knull's spiral symbol on their forehead + the meteorite which the devs went out of their way to include

normal light
hasty coral
#

To override the need for negative interactions

storm jungle
#

Yeah i hope thats something they do if they branch otu for a venom game

#

Im getting bored of Pete staregryn

hasty coral
#

4 is Knull

storm jungle
#

Hope so KEKW_ogryn

hasty coral
plush mason
#

Carnage game when?

hasty coral
#

It’s fun to grow with a Spider-Man

storm jungle
#

true but I got Spiderverse for that

hasty coral
#

Almost certainly

plush mason
#

Venom got his own game so why not Carnage?

hasty coral
#

Carnage isn’t as important

#

Sorry but it’s true

plush mason
#

sadge

storm jungle
#

yeah Carnage is a marketing tool

#

and Generic Bad Guy

hasty coral
#

He will live to see SM 4 I think

#

But his main story is soon

plush mason
#

thanks Walt

hasty coral
#

He is definitely just a villain

#

Not complex

#

But he is compelling because of his insanity

#

And his religious turn in the new game

#

Is even better

#

Religious nut Carnage

plush mason
#

Marvel doesnt really do "generic bad guy" big part of why their villain roster is so much stronger than DC's

hasty coral
#

Who wants to biblically cleanse heretics

warm notch
#

What’s the Bible

hasty coral
#

Sorry

warm notch
#

Wait does Big E have his own version of the Bible

hasty coral

Knullically cleanse

green loom

#

What’s the “holy text” of the Imperium

hasty coral
warm notch
#

If any

hasty coral
#

💀

green loom
#

Or something

plush mason
hasty coral
#

Ederius really out here pouring the gasoline

plush mason
#

so the holy book of the imperial cult is kinda a mess

arctic talon
plush mason
#

and Lorgar wrote it lol

hasty coral
#

Although tbf most 40k fans are atheist

arctic talon
#

There's multiple mechanicus books

green loom
hasty coral
#

It’s not

#

SANE

warm notch
#

Wait so is the Lectio Divinitatus fanfic

#

WAIT

#

all holy texts are technically fanfics

hasty coral
#

But I generally avoid the topic

hasty coral
hasty coral
green loom
#

It's Lorgar's holy book

plush mason

#

Revised by his loyalist son, the Anchorite

verbal path
#

If Big E isn't a god, why do all the SoB have faith powers? Checkmate athiests.

plush mason
#

psykics

green loom
#

You've summarized pretty much 90% of the conversations Greyfax has lmao

plush mason
#

literally the custodians say that

arctic talon
#

also yeah faith powers are based in psychic powers

warm notch
#

I mean doesn’t collective belief have material consequences in reality

plush mason
#

call the SoB hypocrits for burning people that use the exact same powers they do

arctic talon
#

Yes

warm notch
#

So they quite literally channel faith to fuel their powers

verbal path
#

Faith powers aren't warp based since they didn't get cut off by the Pariah Nexus.

green loom
#

They're warp based

#

Just a different flavour

arctic talon
green loom
#

The Pariah Nexus shackles down reality, sealing out the warp
Faith is pretty much the opposite

arctic talon
#

It did cut them off for many

#

but it also just straight up didn't work on other faith powers

#

faith magic is absolutely rooted in the warp

plush mason
#

i doubt the Nexus was flawless

green loom
#

Me figures it's a matter of volume

arctic talon
#

Celestine can't fly

green loom
#

If there's enough faith bs

hasty coral
#

Though

arctic talon
#

or use any of her normal powers

#

within a Obelisk's nullzone

hasty coral
#

The warp is the only true power in 40k

#

Superpowers

arctic talon
#

I,E On cadia

#

she sort of just drops like a brick lol

hasty coral
#

It’s thought based

arctic talon
#

instead of flying

hasty coral
#

It didn’t disrupt the warp just the connection no?

arctic talon
#

It calms the warp

#

The warp is normally a stormy ocean with heavy winds

#

The pariah nexus is a sunny day with no wind what so ever

hasty coral
#

So faith acts are born from the wild warp

arctic talon
#

To an extent yes but not as much as psychic powers

warm notch
#

So it’s within the realm of possibility for the zealot to use the holy artifact to summon powers

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

If their faith is that strong

warm notch
#

That’s based

arctic talon
#

And our zealots

hasty coral
#

The power is real

arctic talon
#

Are well

#

Very very faithful lol

warm notch
#

So it’s kinda like how faith is handled in Elden ring/dark souls

hasty coral
warm notch
#

Kinda

hasty coral
#

Thought based

#

Especially in games

#

And fiction

#

Belief is a mental aspect

warm notch
#

I don’t think I’ve played many games where faith systems existed like that

#

So I didn’t know haha

arctic talon
#

Faith and sorcery are one and the same in elden ring Ironicially

arctic talon
#

Despite how much sorcerers and priests hate each other

warm notch
#

Yeah I should’ve thought about that

hasty coral
#

Technically Elder Scrolls is more mental power and self actualization

#

But faith is a path towards it

frozen rain
#

I'm new to WH lore, Nurgle seems uh

#

Kind of nice, doesn't he?

hasty coral

Relatively?

Yes

Cannot believe GW got inspired to make Nurgle when they were studying in college

hasty coral

But isn’t not having to hope a form of hope in itself?

Ah yes, you go so far off the spectrum you basically end up on the otherside happy.

I just really love the music way of looking at reality

Dragon ‘Shouting’ is changing those notes of reality or something

#

Idk I’m hardly the best person to explain

storm jungle
#

Thats in 40k too

#

its called Enuncia

#

and its literally the same thing

crisp heath
#

It's easy to explain, dragon speech is part of the structure of reality and whenever a dragon talks, it changes reality

frozen rain
#

Oh now I realize why I like him

crisp heath
#

When humans learn how to speak dragon, they get the same abilities because it's a fundamental truth of the universe

hasty coral
#

Intrinsically anyone could make something new a fabric of reality

#

Hence Akatosh (or Anu)

#

Made dragon songs powerful

urban spire
hasty coral
#

But it’s not a cosmic truth in the overall fabric of ES

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

The Godhead just made it so

crisp heath
#

I mean the dragons are so old it may as well be

urban spire
crisp heath
#

Elder Scrolls dragons are old "myth time" stuff

hasty coral
#

It’s just the correction that nothing in ES besides the godhead is a truth

#

Not even Anu and Padamoy

storm jungle
#

Elder Scrolls lore is wack

urban spire
#

it's cool

hasty coral
#

The godhead is the only cosmic truth

ES magic is literally I want something to happen

#

And I do so

crisp heath
#

Gyrate my Aurbis archmage

#

Magic exists because people literally said so

plush mason
crisp heath
#

Elder Scrolls is what happens when someone who thinks magic is real reads Conan the Barbarian and decides to publish their unfinished project

plush mason
#

Slannesh is just everything they couldnt have while in collage

crisp heath
#

Although tbf the guy who wrote Conan also thought magic was real so I guess it scans

plush mason
#

and Nurgle is everything they had but didnt want lol

green loom
#

Nurgle is them

crisp heath
hasty coral
#

How is ES unfinished or related to irl beliefs in magic

#

Never heard that

#

Ever

plush mason
#

iirc magic in ES works because the souls that got sent to Nirn tried to go back and made the stars

crisp heath
#

Oh a bunch of the original devs were super into Crowley style occultism and it's very blatant in the game

plush mason
#

and the sun in ES is actually the gateway to another plane of existence

#

ES is crazy

crisp heath
#

Also Morrowind was the first ES game released in a finished state, most Daggerfall endings don't even play unless you have fan made patches

#

Arena was also notoriously unfinished

plush mason
#

thats just now Bethesda makes games

hasty coral
#

That

#

Wasn’t Bethesda

crisp heath
#

No, this was before bethesda

hasty coral

#

Can you guess what I like about ES

hasty coral
crisp heath
#

Bethesda unironically improved the quality of the games, at the expense of making them less batshit

Nah

Magic sucked though

Sheogorath

plush mason

yup

green loom
#

Don't you mean

#

The Hero of Kvatch

plush mason
#

lol

crisp heath
#

So the company that developed them was Mediatech Softworks, and the publisher was Bethesda

plush mason
#

nah. Sheogorath gives us cheese, that alone makes him the greatest of the princes

crisp heath
#

Starting with Morrowind, Bethesda took over the development side of things

hasty coral
#

Madness is a GREAT aspect

Actually I think Sheo is my favorite aspect

Of ES

As well

It's jygalax or jygalag, something like that

Jyggalag

My veteran reject could 1v1 a space marine

But feats?

#

Maybe

#

Ogryns often fistfight Plague Ogryns and beasts of nurgle in game

green loom

Plague ogryn are easy to solo unsmilecat

Not in the lore lol

Nothing big and of Nurgle is easy

storm jungle

Its slow, ugly and hits tough

Just blast em with your kickback or heavy stubber for easy kill

#

It's not implied

hasty coral
#

Just the one personality I think

green loom
#

It's straight up stated

crisp heath
#

I've said it before and I'll say it again

green loom
#

Brawler is a bone ead

#

The other two aren't

hasty coral
#

Really

#

Ah

#

That’s what I thought

crisp heath
#

The rejects don't need named character privilege, they're a terrifying force of nature if we go by hard lore

normal light
#

Wait bodyguard is not Bone ead?

crisp heath
#

4 ogryn bone’eads would waffle stomp a plague marine

#

An ogryn and psyker teamup alone is terrifying, but these guys also have a veteran sniper and a catholic

green loom
#

Brawler's the only one

#

He actively c omplains about it

hasty coral
#

And bone’eads aren’t SM level at all

#

Wouldn’t change much

hasty coral
#

Plagues are slow

#

They have no speed and tactic advantage

#

It’s a normal chaos blessed SM ONLY trying to fistfight an Ogryn

#

That is the worst idea possible

normal light
hasty coral
#

Resilient is not enough against an OGRYN

normal light
#

Like standard Death Guard moment

crisp heath
#

My guy the ogryn will pick him up and tear him in half

#

Resilience is a moot point there

normal light
hasty coral
#

But not before the marine

crisp heath
#

In brute force, an ogryn is better than a space marine in all regards except probably speed

normal light
#

Well I would argue

crisp heath
#

A plague marine loses the speed advantage

normal light
#

In general

#

Because Plague Marines are in fact heavy infantry

hasty coral
crisp heath
#

The thing that makes space marines better is that they're tactical thinkers, but you can't think your way out of being thrown a quarter mile by a dude named Meat

normal light
#

So I would say that they have similar chances

hasty coral
#

I’m going to assume your trolling

normal light
hasty coral
#

You can’t use “both are heavy infantry” as an argument for combat prowess

#

In the lore

normal light
#

Plague Marines have superior weaponry , Ogryns have speed and survivability

hasty coral
#

And strength

normal light
hasty coral
#

Weaponry is not enough to best an Ogryn that can close the distance

hasty coral
#

Plague marines get no strength boosts

normal light
#

Yes , except power armor and maybe some daemonic gifts

hasty coral
#

A Ogryn has beaten three chaos terminators

#

Moot point

#

Daemonic gifts are just plagued and resilience

#

Neither would outlast an Ogryn

#

That can get in melee

#

Power armor might beat most Ogryns

#

But that’s a completely different argument from regular plague Marin

normal light
#

Nah let’s just not continue this discussion who would win , we all know that the main character would Sitgryn

plush mason
#

hasty coral
#

Named character wins

crisp heath
#

An ogryn cracking open terminator armor like crab legs

Always

What’s the lore implication of Daemonhosts giving the team +50% more plasteel on death

And how come my teammates insist on not killing it

The fact Amberly obviously censors Ciaphas reminiscing about their ah... intimate moments is actually a pretty charming aspect of the presentation for me lol. Especially how she doesnt make any comments when hes talking about how hot she is but if he says she was eating like a pig she'll cut in like "No I was not!"
