[umbral nymph]

i dont really see farsight being a civilian governor

[arctic talon]

The farsight enclave grew faster when he was in his self imposed exile

ironically

so him being in charge of things was an issue ironically

[crisp heath]

So this is one of the major differences between te Farsight Enclave and the Ar'cry'ru

[arctic talon]

Whats Ar'cry'ru

sorry

I might be stupid

[crisp heath]

I hate that I went to the wiki for it, but yea.

After this event, the Tau were left without an Ethereal to guide them. There was nobody to lead them in their objective, nobody to show them the way through these dark times. But Su'Nan'Ol yet again took matters into his own hands and created "The Council of Four". This Council was comprised of four individuals, each a representative of their Caste within the Ar'Cyr'Ru Fleet. A Kor'O (Admiral) to direct the course of the fleet, a Fio'O (Planner) to research newly discovered technologies, a Por'O (Ambassador) to oversee all trade and distribution of resources and a Shas'O (Commander) who would be tasked with defending the fleet. This chain of command proved to be stable and well organized, which allowed the Tau to continue with their mission the Ethereals gave them. But there was still the matter of acquiring resources, trade alone would not be enough. It is to this reason that the Council of Four gathered for the first time ever, in the eve of 759. M41. Shas'O Su'Nan'Ol made a proposal over which the other members of the Council debated over aggressively. After much discussion, the proposal was accepted and from that point on, the Fire Warriors of the Ar'Cyr'Ru fleet would also work as mercenaries for the highest bidder. Word of this had reached the Tau Empire and the Ethereals declared these Tau renegades. It was then, in the year 760.M41, that the Ar'Cyr'Ru Exploratory Fleet was renamed to the Ar'Cyr'Ru Mercenary Fleet. But despite the accusations of treason the Ethereal Caste is throwing at them, the Ar'Cyr'Ru Fleet is still fulfilling its primary objective: Galactic exploration and reconnaissance. -- From the Wiki

[nocturne crest]

Does the Lexicum no have an article about it?

[crisp heath]

Lol honestly I went to the first link

But it doesn't seem so

But from that excerpt, you can see the difference in their government, where they had to find a way to continue on their own and voted amongst themselves, creating their own leadership structure.

[nocturne crest]

I see.

So you could hire the farsight enclaves then?

[crisp heath]

Idk about Farsight, but the Ar'Cyr'Ru I believe absolutely have worked with the imperium before

[arctic talon]

No

They aren’t mercenaries

[crisp heath]

@nocturne crest

In that second paragraph it states how the Ar'Cyr'Ru worked with Radical Inquisitors and the Eldar

Let me see if I can find a legit source

I think your best bet if you want an actual source are the Damocles Crusade books.

Idk otherwise. Google is failing me

[nocturne crest]

I see.

[tough haven]

I've heard drukhari have found ways to torture necrons, whats the source for that?

[crisp heath]

I have another question

Is the god emperor a literal god

Or is he just seen as one because he has phsyker like powers

[umbral nymph]

right now hes a fragmented psyche of power strewn about around the galaxy

as for if hes a literal god, does he have godlike powers? yes but to the extent as the same level as the current 4 chaos gods, debatable but probably no.

Theres a standing theory that if he actually "Dies" in his current form. Golden throne fails level of dead. His concousness and power SHOULD regroup themselves in the warp as thats were all dead things go. by that time if he gathers enough of himself, he could technically become another god of the warp. Its basically what Yvraine is doing right now.

but as of now, hes a glorified lighthouse that gives people incoherent dreams and maybe do some miracles here and there if he feels like it

[umbral nymph]

btw the last thing the emperor wants is to be seen as a god.

[storm jungle]

‘Start with this,’ said Trazyn, tapping one finger on the tile he’d collected off Orikan. ‘What is its composition?’

Sannet paused, his stylus hovering over his phos-glyph tablet. ‘There are limits to what I can say, my lord. Certain mysteries of the cryptek order are inviolate. The punishment for revealing them are quite–’

‘Sannet,’ Trazyn interrupted. ‘You have been to my gallery, yes?’

‘I… have.’

‘Then you know that I possess every conceivable apparatus of violence? I believe you asked to be excused from cataloguing the drukhari gallery, correct?’ Sannet said nothing. ‘To wit, if you truly believe the cryptek masters can devise a punishment more horrid than even the most casual selection out of my gallery, I’m willing to prove you mistaken.’

‘It’s a time tile,’ Sannet blurted.

This is the possible source of it from the Infinite and the Divine, we dont really have an "on-screen" thing of a Dark Eldar ever torturing a necron but considering how advanced their tech is it would be entirely possible, we have many new examples from the new necron books on how sentient necrons can feel fear and many other emotions.

[umbral nymph]

They probably just submerge them in sea water until they rust and just dangle a can of WD40 infront of their face.

[crisp heath]

Makes me wonder if he hates being forced to stay alive

Considering he's in agony

[umbral nymph]

he did specifically say to be interned in the golden throne, its more like "I can hate it, but it has to be done type of deal" but considering what happend to his emperium after then, hes probably has bouts of ULTRA depression

https://tenor.com/view/absolutely-disgraceful-tts-gif-22252310

[storm jungle]

to quote Loki, the Emperor is burdened with "glorious" purpose.

[queen laurel]

Trazyn being a giga chad as usual

[storm jungle]

Trazyn is the best gaslighter

[crisp heath]

Also why did horus betray the imperium

[umbral nymph]

https://tenor.com/view/war-hammer-fantasy-gif-19395056

[crisp heath]

Is it because he felt tied

[crisp heath]

[storm jungle]

goddamn

that is a long ass question to answer

[crisp heath]

Just say in

3 words

[storm jungle]

He was bald

[crisp heath]

[umbral nymph]

its multiple faceted i would say. but if you could boil down like 20+ books and countless novels.

"Daddy Issues"

[crisp heath]

Honestly

Don't blame him

[crisp heath]

20+ books

[storm jungle]

55+ to be exact

[queen laurel]

imagine being demi god and your father can't even give you hair

[crisp heath]

I'll just make my own lore ffs

[crisp heath]

So true

He gave himself tube hair

In his nose to

[umbral nymph]

but lets not kid ourselves. its definetly Erebus' fault

screw Erebus

[queen laurel]

it's always him

[crisp heath]

Idk who that is

[umbral nymph]

its the bald headed tattoo face lookin ass gif i sent.

hes part of the word bearers

[queen laurel]

like how it's Always Dilara when you are wondering why all of the explosive barrels are gone already

[crisp heath]

Snag

Fuck

Nvm I'm just gonna go to sleep

[storm jungle]

Basically, Horus was having a ton of doubts about the Emperor after he left him to work on the Golden Throne and left the Crusade command to Horus as the Warmaster, after that with the "help" of the Word Bearers chapter who had fully embraced chaos corrupted him after he was wounded in a battle by other random chaos forces.

They told Horus' Legion just "Ayo dont worry we'll cure him!" and then Horus was in an astral plane where he saw a horrible future where the Imperium was in decay and the Emperor was raised as a god, SURELY he could not allow this to happen and turned traitor, so it was a mix of ego and chaotic-energies corrupting his mind.

Over the course of the series though it kinda gets more and more Generic Chaos Bad Guy and by the time Terra is under siege hes basically completely gone as his old self and is a full on monster before Big E eradicates him for killing Sanguinius, his closest brother who tried to do battle with him.

• Cliffnotes version btw

mostly because most of the Horus Heresy book series is just filler nonsense.

[crisp heath]

I'm going to copy this and save it for later

[umbral nymph]

this is like EXTREMELY condensed

[storm jungle]

Also its really not

Horus is just a generic bad guy once hes corrupted

[crisp heath]

Appreciate you btw 🖤

[storm jungle]

this is like, a very big complaint by readers lol

[misty brook]

Then we have Abaddon with his ugly bald head ponytail too.

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

he has 3 books in his name

this shitshow moneygrab series has 55+

I know who im gonna hate

💀

[umbral nymph]

https://tenor.com/view/warhammer40k-no-no-40k-gif-24271093

[storm jungle]

Yes.

again Horus is not a deep character

I say this having read at least 40 heresy books

[umbral nymph]

o i agree screw that bald wimp falling to chaos

[crisp heath]

Stealing

Also

Why is everyone Australian in Warhammer

[storm jungle]

They arent

[crisp heath]

Are they taking over

[storm jungle]

who told you that

[umbral nymph]

bro just offended all of Britain

[crisp heath]

I made it the fuck up

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/eggman_slap-gif-24023679

[umbral nymph]

you have been demoted to "PENAL COLONY"

[crisp heath]

Also my last question

How tasty is corpse starch

Idk about you but that shit sounds bussin

[storm jungle]

Its processed corpses

you can take a guess

[queen laurel]

can you eat starch ?

[umbral nymph]

Like Tofu but really icky tofu

[crisp heath]

Absolutely delicious

[crisp heath]

Nvm fuck tofu

I meant tofu

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/corn-starch-pour-into-bread-baking-preparing-country-living-gif-14225170

[crisp heath]

Bussin

[umbral nymph]

its like eating startch with water and compress it

[crisp heath]

Also what other stories have the skin man in it

I like him

He's like me

[storm jungle]

what in the fu-

[crisp heath]

What

[arctic talon]

Tofu is good

fuck you

[misty brook]

Skin man not as bad as these guys though.

[crisp heath]

It's ok, not all opinions are valid

[arctic talon]

I'm skinning you alive

[crisp heath]

Im going to boil you in cement

[arctic talon]

[crisp heath]

[misty brook]

So do you guys have a favorite human character or no?

Doesn't include Space Marine, just your regular human, abhumans, and pyskers.

[crisp heath]

I honestly don't know any

Actually

I can't remember his name but he was a commander that was respected by orks because he was such a good fighter

He even had his arm severed but just attached an ork claw

[sacred ginkgo]

Yarrick

[crisp heath]

Yes I love him

Sadly he's 6ft deep now

[misty brook]

By Angron thanks to GW. Now Ghazghkull's leading a revenge WAARGH!!! against him.

[crisp heath]

Imagine if they became friends man

[misty brook]

I swear Ghazhkull is gonna be a Krork equivalent of a Orc.

Unless Trazyen mismanages the one he keeps in his musuems.

[storm jungle]

We dont know who killed Yarrick.

Or how he died.

[tough haven]

Tofu covered flayed one is a silly idea lol

[tough haven]

Or if

[storm jungle]

Yeah like

his "death" report literally tells us nothing

its very much gonna be "my death was greatly exaggerated"

Hes definitely getting a mini-update, hes fucking OUTDATED AS SHIT

[crisp heath]

So.... I'm hella behind, but some topics peaked my interest

[crisp heath]

No, they are actually the most terrifying imo

[misty brook]

The Flayers can also communicate too, by tapping on the surface with their claws. Doesn't help they live on a Ghoul Star too.

[crisp heath]

1. On the topic of the God emperor, it depends on when you're asking in the time line. Before he sat on the golden throne he was, for lack of a better term, simply humanities most powerful psycher. He's closer to an Eldar than a human in scope of abilities. He's immortal like them, can warp reality like them. For all intents and purposes for most of human history he seemingly was equivalent to Eldrad if not a bit more. However as the imperium got started, and belief in him and him alone became a thing, this seemingly changed. It's also shown in the latest Horus Heresy novel (I forgot it's exact name) that seemingly the Emperor could choose to become a Deity at any time if he'd wished. Seemingly showing he's not a Hypocrite by denying that. Now, that was at the end of the Heresy. Now? He's been fed likely billions of psychers at this point and is the sole entity humanity has prayed to aside from the chaos entities for 10k years or so.

[spare osprey]

Does augmented human count? Not like space marine level or anything

[misty brook]

Yes.

[spare osprey]

Luther then

I enjoy his downfall and his flaws

He’s one of the more “human” 40K characters I’ve read up on

[crisp heath]

2. On he topic of necron torture by Dark Eldar. While there is no direct showing of this, theoretically yes they could. The Dark Eldar can torture anything. The issue here is te Necron have no soul. When they went through the biotranference, the C'tan ate their souls. And for the Eldar to rejuvenate, that's what they need. Simply causing pain isn't enough. They need to stress the soul, like pressing juice from a fruit.

[storm jungle]

Thats just what I said

[crisp heath]

Did you? I'm sorry.... I was catching up and his questions caught my eye.

[crisp heath]

I saw this, but I didn't see their souls mentioned so I felt I'd speak on that. Sorry for repeating you though...

[storm jungle]

Im joking its alright

[crisp heath]

I did not know that and I hate that

The necrons were scary enough with the tch

Now they crave skin

Oh yeah. Flayers are actually really sad

It's a curse right?

Ehhhh

By some god

Not really

Kinda more like really fucked up code

Weird

[storm jungle]

Basically

it is a "curse"

but as Ghost said its also a tech-virus

[crisp heath]

I just remember they want skin for no reason

[storm jungle]

Basically when the necrons were usurping their gods the C'tan

one of these gods was the Flayer

before he died he was like

"SIKE"

"YEET"

[crisp heath]

Nuh uh

[storm jungle]

and infected some necrons with the Flayer Virus

[crisp heath]

Lol pretty much

[storm jungle]

yeah its literally what happened, theres no dramatic retelling

[crisp heath]

Honestly

Ik this is opinion based

What's the most dangerous faction in Warhammer

[storm jungle]

basically Flayed Ones are treated like Lepers, their infection can actually spread to other necrons and they are kept in a pocket dimension for each dynasty where when battle is started they can be unleashed to the field.

[storm jungle]

Yes.

[unborn gust]

And fucked over 5 whole dynasties

[crisp heath]

@crisp heath Tyranids

Easily

[queen laurel]

every one

[storm jungle]

Tons of dynasties in general have flayers

[misty brook]

"I shall cast the fear of myself into you and all of your kind. I am Llandu'gor. I am the hunger. I am the flayer, and from this moment, you shall be too."
-Death words of C'tan, Llandu'gor The Flayer.

[crisp heath]

Ig that's because they basically got phyker ones

Or something

[storm jungle]

no

[crisp heath]

I cannot remember

No. Tyranids have no pyschers

The opposite actually

[unborn gust]

Yes but not to the extent of the 5 at the battle where Llandagor was killed

[crisp heath]

They produce massive null fields

[storm jungle]

Its because they are an army of massive space-bugs that wanna ea tyou

[crisp heath]

Basically xenos

[unborn gust]

Those 5 suffer the most. In fact those 5 dynasties have entirely fallen to it

[crisp heath]

But I'm crack

On

And steroids

[storm jungle]

by xenos do you mean xenomorphs

[crisp heath]

They're an infinite army of insect devourers.

[crisp heath]

Bingo

[storm jungle]

Also the Tyranids are basically Generic Evil Bug race

[misty brook]

And a Necron Phaeron who rules over the Flayers and is apparently immune to the disease. Kinda sucks for him, ruling over them.

[storm jungle]

a lot of sci-fi has it

[storm jungle]

man I wonder who could that be

[crisp heath]

A closer analogy is the flood from halo

[storm jungle]

[unborn gust]

Valgul. Love that man.

[crisp heath]

One thing I wish I could see is

Necromorphs I'm Warhammer

[unborn gust]

Drazak my beloved

[crisp heath]

Nurgle

[storm jungle]

Necromorphs are underrated

[crisp heath]

In

I cannot speak

[crisp heath]

Facts

[storm jungle]

Necromorphs are not really Nurgle though

[unborn gust]

I just want GW to give us a flayed lord model

[crisp heath]

Honestly kinda like flayers a little

[storm jungle]

Necromorphs are more scary than half the aliens in 40k

mostly from a horror factor

[unborn gust]

Twice dead king made me fall in love with flayed ones

[grave sparrow]

Necromorphs would probably be some spooky necron tech

[crisp heath]

Real

[unborn gust]

One of my favorite units now

[crisp heath]

Yet they were beat by a engineer

[grave sparrow]

or Ghoul Star entity tech

[crisp heath]

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/dead-space-tormentor-introduction-jump-land-gif-27431215

I mean no

Dead Space 3 ends with earth getting eaten

💀

[unborn gust]

Skill issue for earth

[crisp heath]

They kinda are though. Necromorphs happen because of the Dead Moons right? These eldritch horror things? Well it's not an exact analogy. But the chaos gods do the same thing
Psychers mutate and become monstrous all the time, and their mutations can look similar to a mecromorphs

[unborn gust]

Necromorphs seem like they’d be Drukahri tech

[storm jungle]

Nah

[crisp heath]

I forgot about the brethren moon murdering everyone

[grave sparrow]

I mean we didn't seeeee it get eaten, the brother moons were just chillin around them

[storm jungle]

the necromorph lifecycle is REALLY complex

[misty brook]

They are creatures like that. One creature is what the Deathwatch encountered on a wrcked Voidship. Apparently it was a fleshly creature with tendrils that the crew fused together.

None of the Deathwatch Squad's weapon worked on it. They can only contain it with a time stasis field. And now they watch it in containment, trying to find ways to destroy while studying it too. They came up in the conclusion it came from a different dimension than the Warp.

[storm jungle]

Necromorphs are scary because theres no god involved

we never even know where they come from

thanks EA

[crisp heath]

Right, like warhammer honestly has an analogy to most things at least hinted at

[storm jungle]

40k just has so many Generic Evil Alien that it kinda blends together and stops being scary.

[crisp heath]

A signal by an artifact (marker) reanimates any dead corpses within a large range, those corpses kill people and spread. When enough bodies are made, a new moon is created

[grave sparrow]

Brother Moons? I mean they just seem like a really powerful hivemind entity that probably evolved from the edges of the universe or somethin

[storm jungle]

Yeah we got no idea

worst part is the writers do 💀

[grave sparrow]

Oh god damn it EA

[unborn gust]

They horde their knowledge

[crisp heath]

Right right. Swap out the marker for a god in the warp, and the signal for its influence.

[storm jungle]

Theres hope with how successful Dead Space 1 Remake was

so we can only hope

[grave sparrow]

And they made us suffer with Origin 😠

[crisp heath]

heck not even a god. Generic demons can do it

[crisp heath]

Yea pretty much

[grave sparrow]

I'd rather Necrons not be chaos related

keep them as eldritch abominations

[crisp heath]

Imagine a necromorph space marines

@grave sparrow they can't be chaos related...

[storm jungle]

Necromorphs are scary because they are mysterious

it took like 3 fucking games for us to get any idea of what they were

[grave sparrow]

err, necromorphs, my bad

[crisp heath]

Ahh gotcha

[storm jungle]

Also yeah Necros are the best definition of cosmic horror

its why i said they are scarier than half the generic monsters in warhammer

their concept is so simple yet so awful

[grave sparrow]

I mean HP Lovecraft stuff kinda dumps on necromorphs

[crisp heath]

Fun fact, necros never really die

They just get incapacitated

Unfortunately that's more than likely how it'd have to happen. Though if you go out to the fringes, like the halo stars, theirs some freaky ass shit out there that could also likely do it without the warp

@grave sparrow

[misty brook]

My favorite human character is Canoness Veridyan. She lost her left eye to a Nurgle daemon trying to grab her while on a mission with her Canoness as a Sister Superior against a Nurgle Cult. But her fellow Sister of battle shot her on accident to save her from it.

[storm jungle]

Leave it to the Marker to turn human babies into suicide-bombs 💀

man that scene in Dead Space 2 fucked me up

[grave sparrow]

Did you mean fortunately or unfortunately, because I think creepy stuff that isn't chaos related is a lot more interesting

[crisp heath]

Lol I guess perspective

[misty brook]

The only Necromorph that scares me is that skin ray one that makes new ones.

[crisp heath]

Fortunate for us

[storm jungle]

Infectors yep 💀

[crisp heath]

Unfortunate for whatever characters happen to find and tell us about it

[crisp heath]

Do you prefer the murderous tentacle babies?

[storm jungle]

No

[crisp heath]

Or the murderous tentacle dogs in DS3

[grave sparrow]

Do Death Spectres have a book yet?

[misty brook]

And second worst one for me is the vomiting one.

[storm jungle]

i think the worst part with that section in the children's school is you can find teacher's report where she is saying as noting that the kids in classes are acting weird

and that they all have "imaginary friends"

[crisp heath]

Little bat boys

[storm jungle]

💀

[crisp heath]

The brutes are hella scary

[misty brook]

They don't.

[grave sparrow]

That'd be a baller book, learning what they're fighting

... watch it just be some stupid tyranid faction.

[storm jungle]

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Death_Spectres

Check the sources at the bottom

its not too centric on Death Spectres but they appear in these

[crisp heath]

So question. Who knows what the Umbra are? And what do you think they are?

[grave sparrow]

Hmm, curious as to how the Deathwatch ties into them so heavily

[storm jungle]

Flayed:tm. is the main short-story they got where you learn that they got the "breeding worlds" 💀

[grave sparrow]

unless the Death Spectres are like "yo fuck this" and join the Deathwatch more often

[storm jungle]

My guess is one of the DW brothers in it is a death spectre

[misty brook]

Fragments of a dead Alderai God shattered by Slaanesh.

[grave sparrow]

He got confused which chapter he was supposed to be in lol

[storm jungle]

Nah its more that DW takes any Marine in

[crisp heath]

Eldar god, eh?

Why eldar?

[storm jungle]

their entire appeal is that they are like the Suicide Squad

[grave sparrow]

funny name similarity tho

[storm jungle]

look

theres only so many ways you can say "Death"

[misty brook]

When the Imperium killed one. It showed memories to them a psychic echo flashback.

[grave sparrow]

I mean I guess it makes it easier to remember a chapter than if they have some weird latin name or somethin lol

[storm jungle]

Blood Angels got that covered

theres so many generic space marine chapters

with the same-ass sounding goofy ah name

💀

[crisp heath]

@misty brook but those memories don't point to the eldar... they pointed to an Old One, right?

[grave sparrow]

I've had buddies who are huge 40k fans get blood angels, blood ravens, and dark angels consistently mixed up

[storm jungle]

what about the Dark Angles

[grave sparrow]

We don't talk about those

[storm jungle]

@crisp heath @misty brook Hold on you two

ill bust out my copy

https://tenor.com/view/book-dust-dusty-old-library-gif-23639439

Mmmm, lookin' like ice cream

🍦

[grave sparrow]

What are the ultramarines fighting in the last one??

[storm jungle]

the Umbra

thats what that fucking ball can turn into

[grave sparrow]

that's so fuckin cool

[storm jungle]

welcome to mid 2000's 40k lore

where we got extra cool stuff like this

better days...

[crisp heath]

Right at in that last page. One, we need to remember the guy talking is an admitted heretic

But, when he says poking and prodding

I'm sorry second to last page

Up to his Old Ways

Is specifically capitalized

[storm jungle]

Basically the plot of this book is an Inquisitor's agent has been sent to investigate this nutjob and he is currently going through his research to build up a proper report

so every book goes over what the techpriest was doing and the agent's reactions/recordings of it

[crisp heath]

Right right. But this attested heretic seems to be implying this is an old one who hid in the warp after the great War, perhaps the last one. And when Slanesh was born, her first act, or one of them, was to break this old one. And she scattered him as a joke to continue lingering as he'd always done. Which honestly sounds very slanesh

[storm jungle]

yeah its very up in the air

because this book makes A LOT of lore revelations

theres even a fucking starchild thing in here

Its a great shame it was retconned

[crisp heath]

Which were finding out is kinda happening now though...

So.... I mean....

Ehhhhhh??

[storm jungle]

Nah its explicitly non-canon

[crisp heath]

But there is a star child thing happening now right

[storm jungle]

yeah but the other products of this book are also non-canon, so one thing being true doesnt desolve the others.

[crisp heath]

So maybe this is just a heretic being a heretic and half right wrong thing lol

[storm jungle]

GW rarely EVER deems a material they made non-canon, it has happened to like 5 books out of thousands in existence in their library.

[crisp heath]

Lol fair enough. A man can dream lol

Well... idk... that might be heresy...

[misty brook]

I really hope they try to reforge Khaine. Since he needs some wins. Dude gets his avatar's asses beat a lot.

[storm jungle]

alas

[misty brook]

They found the strongest Avatar of Khaine. The Warshard of Khaine which Eldanesh the greatest hero and champion of the Alderai fought against in the Mythos.

[storm jungle]

Yep but hey 💀

[arctic talon]

Avatar of Khaine == Number 2 jobber

[misty brook]

I don't understand why Dark Eldar celebrate the natural births greatly. When the Haemonculi can make clones of more Dark Elder to reproduce faster.

[crisp heath]

Now for the real heavy hitters with no right answers lol

Who wins?

Big Crow Boy Corvus?

Or Shiny Chicken Sangy

[misty brook]

Corvus... You can't hit him when his in swarm bird or shadow form and he can teleport too. Which doesn't help at all.

[molten swan]

[winged jacinth]

i was reading the lexicanum and apparently the imperial navy's destroyers are all smaller than its frigates

someone got their wires crossed in the ocean to space transition

[thick cedar]

They should add these guys to darktide and make them lore friendly. Just blasts your fucking speakers out

What if the Emperor called Robert Bootyman and said "Hey, son. Sorry how I acted the other day when you came to visit. I was having a shitty day. Bunch of Slaaneshi assholes drawning me sucking dick. I know I shouldnt let it bother me but it does. Come visit when you can, okay? Love you, son"

[winged jacinth]

The noise marine when i tell him he'll never measure up to merzbow

[thick cedar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnIgtQ_80N0

Bring back snooty boi space marines

[winged jacinth]

please dont disrespect the beakies

heroes of the imperium one and all

even when they're being cops to arrest punks or whatever crazy stuff space marines were up to in 1e

[echo vault]

Can I use any eldar model if I did a Corsair band, like rules wise they're voidscarred/guardians/kabalites but they all vary between every style of elfdar, and just doing count as rules if you're using a wave serpent as well as a raider idk, the raider is smaller probably

[arctic talon]

Corsairs don't have rules, if you want a mixed Eldar army use Ynnari

[echo vault]

Ynnari but with the words corsairs taped over

[arctic talon]

Then yeah

go for it

[echo vault]

Just with more voidscarred my local game store has like 4 void scarred boxes and 3 of the dark eldar ones

Nobody is buying them

[arctic talon]

Yeaah

[echo vault]

I'll steal save up and buy

[stray bluff]

What do yall think of “gym-wear” Repentia?

[tulip brook]

better than alternatives

older kit looks like some kind of stripper uniform in lore they are dressed with remnants of robes which should look like tattered monk, both kits miss the mark imo but new kit shows how unhinged they are and properly shows grimderp part with needles sticking into their legs

[winged jacinth]

I agree that they're better than stripper gear but they still seem kinda... informal?

They might be going crazy doing repentance stuff but i feel like they should still look more churchy

[tulip brook]

black tank tops and hot pants are just lazy design

[soft thunder]

fought ol'slobberchops blackheart himself

[winged jacinth]

If they didnt have hoods and eviscerators i'd probably say the bodies are guard models

[normal light]

Kinda like priests have?

Red robes with short sleeves

Maybe

[tulip brook]

they can't look "churchy" with how they are essentially excommunicated from church

the stuff I could find mentions "hood of penitent" it should be what they wear with similar stuff zealot default gear in darktide and "robes of penitent" with beige cream coloring

[arctic talon]

Better then the old minis

[tulip brook]

it's also mentioned they are roughly dressed with remains of their robes, which should be the same color with their order imo

[arctic talon]

Bit too plain now imo

Could do with like

More tattered rags and such

[tulip brook]

I think GW tried to keep them in line with other penitent units like arco flaggellants but a bit more kept together

[arctic talon]

True

[normal light]

Robes of Penitent ?

[arctic talon]

I do think the new ones are much better

Something Something authors barely disguised fetish

[normal light]

I only knew about Zealot hoods whom are basically part of an Imperial Creed stuff

[tulip brook]

something like this design could be more fitting imo

this is the look they are going for

[echo vault]

The regular sororitas helmet is so cool

Such a good design

@celest dome babe wake up, new lines to dissect

[celest dome]

"Morrow is going to bald, we must discourage him"

[median marsh]

he seems to have it for morrow specifically

[celest dome]

Its quite understandable, Morrow is the named person which lead the Reject specifically

Zolla and Rannick are higher, and Melk lead the Auric

[median marsh]

"squad lead reports at least 50 targets in the amphitheater, hard to get count on the enemy"

"enemy in platoon strength at least"

4 murderhobos success

[winged jacinth]

The enemy vox is so good

[sleek wigeon]

wolfer's clapback is so good too
"I'm sure that's true, yes...Cowards always seem to struggle with...simple numeracy."

[median marsh]

Wolfer getting progressively angrier is relatable

It's even funnier if mourningstar star isn't jamming their comms and it's just vox being shoddy

"most of the troops are drunk, or worse"

[sacred ginkgo]

How do nurgle worshippers even get drunk

[arctic talon]

With a lot of alcohol, the moebians are also fresh converts

[sacred ginkgo]

Or does he let them

[arctic talon]

They’re not super mutated yet

Generally speaking

They’ve certainly been corrupted but they aren’t well

At that point yet

[median marsh]

Nurgle stops his followers from feeling pain but I don't think they stop feeling everything

[sacred ginkgo]

Still funny to think that the disease god worshippers are susceptible to alcohol poisoning

[median marsh]

Also yeah Moebians aren't as deep into it as Dregs

[celest dome]

Nurgle doesn't make you immune to drugs and/or poison

[median marsh]

I like that they use poxwalkers as corpse clean up apparently

[arctic talon]

We catch the Moebian with their pants down during that mission as well

They’re leaving a bunch of rifles and gear around

In a lot of the areas lol

[median marsh]

"I think some of the teams are fighting eachother'

Classic chaos moment

[arctic talon]

Taking the chance to settle the inter regiment grudge

Violently

[drifting jacinth]

Yeah he specifically makes you tough and deadenned enough not to care

But you still like
Feel it
And it probs can kill you

[tulip brook]

chaos shooting themselves in the foot at a very crucial moment is the norm, not the exception 😄

[median marsh]

"A personal encounter with Morrow is warranted. I will give the matter thought"

[drifting jacinth]

"Who knew basing a military force around a religion that encourages ambition and remorseless violence was a bad idea ! Oh, the humanity !"

[median marsh]

I'm now imagining wolfer throwing hands with morrow

I'm not exactly sure how he thinks he'll manage that

[arctic talon]

Morrow is never planet side lol

Unless the Moebian sixth try attacking the mourningstar which is literal suicide

[normal light]

Repentias in lore look like Slaanesh followers

at least this variant

with lots of spikes

[arctic talon]

Yes that’s the point

[drifting jacinth]

They're covered in imperial cult imagery what

[arctic talon]

They’re meant to look deranged

And obsessed with the idea of “repentance”

The imperium is at its best when it looks like a bunch of religious death obsessed psychopaths

[tulip brook]

imperium forces looking and behaving exactly like chaos cultists behind the facade is brilliant design

[arctic talon]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammer40k/images/f/fc/Athonian_Tunnel_Rat-0.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20171009202554

Athonian tunnel rats my beloved

[tulip brook]

it bridges the gap of "how do they even fall to chaos if these gods are so horrific"

[arctic talon]

Imperial cult already is a pretty horrifying religion

It doesn’t take too many steps to fall into low level chaos worship

[median marsh]

Chaos cults thrive in the lower levels of the hive, promises of freedom and better life go a long way if the target knows nothing but brutality their entire life

And when they realize the lie they've been told, it's already too late to go back

[celest dome]

There so much space for Cults to grow anywhere, from the Penal systems, to the Ash Waste to even on the Higher Spires

[drifting jacinth]

I mean I'm ngl
Joining a chaos cult is a pretty sweet deal

[arctic talon]

[celest dome]

For 1% yes

For the rest

NO

[drifting jacinth]

You get power that matches your ambition and skill

[arctic talon]

My brother in Christ you are going to get your throat slit

[celest dome]

NO

[arctic talon]

In your sleep

[drifting jacinth]

Your soul gets eaten but it's gonna happen anyways probs

[median marsh]

Not even in your sleep

[drifting jacinth]

Not if I slit theirs first

Nah I'd deffo join a chaos cult

If I lived in a hive I mean

Barely anything to lose, a lot to gain, and a more interesting life

[celest dome]

I mean I'd probably join Chaos too, but I know it's not a good thing

Joining the Ash Waste Nomads is much better

(Though I want Tzeentchian Ash Waste Nomads)

[sleek wigeon]

lowkey i'd join a hive gang

[drifting jacinth]

Like straight up what does the average hiver lose

[crisp heath]

@celest dome nah. If you are joining a separate faction, your best options are, imo this order, The League of Votann, The Exodites, and The Tau.

[winged jacinth]

Most of their skin usually

[median marsh]

The cruelest joke we gods can play on the cults is piling so many gifts they cannot take it

[drifting jacinth]

You didn't need that

[crisp heath]

Best qualities of life

[celest dome]

I do not think those are gonna take Orphan N°15465498765214 from Hive Bumfuck 5

[sleek wigeon]

first problem is getting off-planet, next problem is getting onto a tau world without getting smoked immediately

[crisp heath]

@sleek wigeon plenty of humans do??

[drifting jacinth]

Don't think you can join the first two

[median marsh]

Imagine surviving for centuries, serving fervently and achieving much..only to get reduced to a ever shifting pile of flesh because your patron thought it's funny giving you mutations

[crisp heath]

@celest dome happens though

[celest dome]

Extremely rare

[crisp heath]

Not really

Mofos made a whole god happen

[drifting jacinth]

The faction with the best quality of life is probably exodites though

[crisp heath]

Has to be more than a few

[celest dome]

Statistically it is rare

[drifting jacinth]

It mostly happens when whole regiments defect during wars afaik

[crisp heath]

@celest dome statistics for a multi trillion pop species lies

[drifting jacinth]

But tau also have like
Ambassadors
I'd assume you can just ask them

[crisp heath]

There's plenty of humans in those societies

And the Votann are literally humans themselves

Clones but like... still

[drifting jacinth]

Abhumans, and extremely insular

[arctic talon]

Craftworld eldar have a higher quality of life technically

Only downside is

[crisp heath]

Tomato tamauto

[drifting jacinth]

Eeh their whole path thing kinda lowers that for me

[arctic talon]

Ehhh you can change paths

But yeah

That is a restriction

[green loom]

On a whim too

[drifting jacinth]

Ik but it still is restrictive

[crisp heath]

@arctic talon while this is true, they don't ride dinosaurs lol

[arctic talon]

Worst living quality in 40K goes to chaos tbh

[drifting jacinth]

Hives are easily worst

[arctic talon]

Chaos hive worlds exist

[crisp heath]

Exodites got that whole jurassic park vibe lol

[arctic talon]

Forgeworlds are also arguably worse imo

[drifting jacinth]

Especially if you try to live a moral life cause that shit ain't easy

[crisp heath]

Riding raptors and swizz lol

[arctic talon]

In terms of the boot on your neck sorta deal

[drifting jacinth]

True but that depends a lot on the specific world

Some are actually chill cause numbers go up when the population's happy

[crisp heath]

Though I mean, the imperium does have a lock on the worst worlds. We have literal death world's and shit

[drifting jacinth]

Most aren't inhabited tho

[arctic talon]

Catachan 💀

[drifting jacinth]

Catachan people have fun there they don't count

[crisp heath]

I don't think any other faction has stuff like that crept maybe the drukari, and idk if we want to be like them lol

[winged jacinth]

Living on a forge world is just like being an amazon employee

[arctic talon]

You get more piss breaks as an Amazon employee ngl

[drifting jacinth]

100% depends on if your local archmagos is a moron or not

(Most of them are)

[arctic talon]

Yeah I’m just using the big forgeworlds

[crisp heath]

So do the drukari 🤣 🤣

[arctic talon]

Most of them aren’t great

[winged jacinth]

On a forge world your piss bottle is standard issue

[arctic talon]

Not the poor

All the druhkari lore we have is on the upper class mostly lol

We don’t get to see the shittiest parts of comorroagh

[crisp heath]

I doubt the poor on catachan had much fun either

[celest dome]

There are some Hive World that are much better than other
Even some Hive that are better than the other on the same world

[crisp heath]

Though idk how they'd tell wealth lolz

[arctic talon]

That one necromunda hive

Is pretty nice

[arctic talon]

Whoever has the most fortified house obviously

[tulip brook]

I don't think direct comparison in ANY real life situations is a healthy approach. it's a parody meant to showcase the worst human conditions possible

[arctic talon]

The beatings will continue until morale improves

[winged jacinth]

Unfortunately i am parodying the real life hell of amazon logistics employment

[drifting jacinth]

The real world is a parody at this point

[crisp heath]

The most apt analogies are literally slave conditions, like cobalt mining and the like, where there is no choice both literally and figuratively, due to you having no means or opportunity for other work in those areas, and the gun to your head. Oh and the job is actively killing you. No matter what it is.

[median marsh]

A guy literally died in Amazon warehouse and their anti slack system thing reported him as being lazy

[celest dome]

The democratic one ?

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[drifting jacinth]

Real techpriest shit

[arctic talon]

It’s decently nice right

Or am I thinking of the wrong one

[celest dome]

It's much better than the rest from the world, but it's not much greater, afaik the best Hive that we know of are from Vostroya and Elysian

[drifting jacinth]

A lot of the hives in early book, ie Eisenhorn, are also just normal ass cities

[queen laurel]

Hey Cacti I've been wanting to ask a warhammer fantasy related question

[arctic talon]

Elysian has really nice hives yeah

[celest dome]

Yes ?

[arctic talon]

I thought vostraya was an industrial world ngl

[celest dome]

Vostroya has a shit world be well governed Hives

[celest dome]

Yeah, but it still has Hives

[queen laurel]

who would win one-on-one Gotrek or Grimgor?

[arctic talon]

Ah

[queen laurel]

Both of them seem like powerhouses in combat

[celest dome]

I'd table on Gotrek

But he has Plot Armour most of the time

[median marsh]

Gotrek has grimnirs axe doesnt he

[celest dome]

One of them, but not always

[median marsh]

It might be another stalemate situation where neither can kill eachother

Which happened to grimgor once

[queen laurel]

yeah it's definitely one of his Tougher battles

[celest dome]

Yeah, but Gotrek has killed some Greater Daemon before, not sure if Grimgor has

[queen laurel]

yeah i'm pretty sure grimgor hasn't

[celest dome]

But yea, 6/10 for Gotrek probably

[queen laurel]

gotrek is incredibly stubborn and harder to kill than a cockroach with armor

[drifting jacinth]

Gotrek is surviving thanks to being a good fighter, Grimgor is a good fighter and a good leader
I'd bet on Gotrek if they ever got in a 1v1 but Grimgor shouldn't do that

[tough flicker]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdTGmbVeabg i liked this video is it accurate?

[median marsh]

extremely memefied

And literally skips several important notes just from the bits I watched

Also entirely wrong about Dark age of technology

[green loom]

Shocking

[tough flicker]

bruh

[median marsh]

emperor made a deal with chaos gods so they made primarchs for him

I'm sorry what

He did make a deal yes but I'm pretty sure the chaos gods didn't make the primarchs lmao

[rose oak]

anyone know why traitor plamsa weapons always have the red appearance instead of the blue?

[green loom]

Because they're evil

(because you need them to be visually distinct)

[inland sigil]

are they tho.

[green loom]

Not anymore evil than anyone else

Well, maybe more evil

[median marsh]

considering they casually went around gunning down every single person they saw, yes, I'd say they're evil

[tulip brook]

are they "always" red tho?

I've seen purple, green, red, blue...

[undone zodiac]

Red for overheating would be funnier

All traitor plasmas being about to explode

[tulip brook]

I think he's referencing mini box art which is always painted in black legion color scheme

like sm is painted with ultramarines

[celest dome]

No they can be a multitude of colours, but usually it's Blue for Imperium, Red for Chaos

[tulip brook]

that was my point

well, except for blue for imperium red for chaos part

[verbal path]

That's how the used to be a long time ago

Imperium plasma was safe but only fire every other turn while Chaos had a chance to explode

[tulip brook]

I like painting them red

easier to sell hot hot hot effect

[celest dome]

Eldar used to have purple and green iirc

[drifting jacinth]

In-universe there's enough different ways of making the same thing for different aesthetics, same reason lasguns always look different

The glow can be explained by anything from higher plasma heat to just a differently colored glass

[stray bluff]

Ogryns vs Average Primaris who wins?

[celest dome]

In melee ?

Ogryn

[stray bluff]

Round 1: Unarmed
Round 2: Armed

[queen laurel]

In a contest of brute force the Ogryn would win, but with weapons space marines anytime of the day

[stray bluff]

Round 3: Bare fist

Damn they are that strong huh

[queen laurel]

Ogryns can drag around a 38 ton Chimera and suplex a Terminator

Physically speaking they have the most raw force in the imperium

[celest dome]

Ogryn get round 1 and 3

2 it depend on the weapon

[stray bluff]

Well average shooty pew pew

Boltgun vs Machine Gun

[celest dome]

Depend on who got the jump on whom, if it's in a blank room with a long range and all prob. The SM

[verbal path]

The further out you get in range the better the space marine will be.

[crisp heath]

I have awoken

[drifting jacinth]

Space marines are also just smarter and older

The average space marine knows martial arts

The average ogryn knows how to bonk with a club

[stray bluff]

Considering that… we got an Ogryn class, it wouldnt be so far fetch to have a Space Marine class then

But why is he not with the Legion instead would be a lore issue i suppose

[celest dome]

SM wouldn't be like Reject

And SM are boring

[drifting jacinth]

A space marine isn't in a legion

[celest dome]

So FS doesn't want them

[drifting jacinth]

In the 42nd millenium

Also, a space marine has decades of training, the rejects are conceptually just randos with guns

And there's hundreds of ogryns for each space marine

[celest dome]

Nah, for Ogryn we really don't know how many of them there are

[undone zodiac]

Clearly enough

[drifting jacinth]

There's planets of them

They evolved a small dozen of times, mostly from penal population, and they spread with humanity after being rediscovered

[undone zodiac]

Ratling class

[drifting jacinth]

That'd be cool but I don't think the lore has any ratling melee weapon

They could make brand new ones tho

[undone zodiac]

Personally id want sister novitiate as class

Would remain in boundaries of the powerscale and could be deviation of zealot

[celest dome]

Ratling have problems with PoV, and don't really bring anything exclusive

[drifting jacinth]

Wouldn't that just be a zealot without the reason to be a reject ?

[dense salmon]

What are these battery-fed lasguns?

They look like longlas mixed with hotshot lasguns

[drifting jacinth]

Hotshot lasguns with a weird shape, probably

[quick egret]

do psykers have their own symbol/insignia?

[celest dome]

They have the one from the Astra Telepatica

[green loom]

Prolly dis ye

[drifting jacinth]

But all lasguns can be backfed, technically, it's just not usually done

[quick egret]

hmmm

[dense salmon]

Yeah

They look like mp5s

Sorta

[quick egret]

isn't very necklace shaped, sadly 😦

[dense salmon]

With long barrels

[normal light]

No they don`t

[normal light]

They look like Winchesters

[celest dome]

@quick egret

[green loom]

The eye itself is typically a symbol associated with them tbf

[quick egret]

ooh

pretty wings :3

[drifting jacinth]

The backpack mounted lamp + baldness gives those guardmen a very gsc look

[normal light]

Like look at their reciver

[drifting jacinth]

Love that they have scopes but can't look through them because of their goofy gasmasks

[drifting jacinth]

Peak 40k

[normal light]

I don`t see any similarities

[green loom]

Does the MP5 give STG vibes to anyone

[dense salmon]

This particular one does

More like an mp40 than a winchester or mp5 actually

[normal light]

I don`t see any similarities

still

[normal light]

it looks more like this

with it`s reciver

[dense salmon]

I see a mishmash of the three

The two in the picture have small discrepancies

So they're probably just heavily modified hotshot lasguns

Knowing the chemdogs, their snipers probably got killed so they just took the scopes off their longlases, retrofitted them onto some hotshots, and slimmed the barrels down

Found a krieger with a similar configuration

[drifting jacinth]

Can lasguns overheat ?

[verbal path]

Eventually

[storm jungle]

Yes

[verbal path]

They won't catastrophically vent hot gas on you like a plasma gun but you can melt your barrel if you shoot enough

[drifting jacinth]

Didn't know they made heat
Fun

[celest dome]

They can overheat just like normal guns can

[drifting jacinth]

They don't shoot an actual physical projectile tho

[celest dome]

yes

[verbal path]

Laser hot

[spring cairn]

people tend to forget las shot can sever limbs

[storm jungle]

Fire isnt physical either

yet you know, its hot

[drifting jacinth]

They can, but that doesn't inherently mean they get hot
I don't think the laser actually touches the gun

[storm jungle]

It does

it literally gets fired out and inside the barrel

[drifting jacinth]

Fire radiate heats, light doesn't, it generates heat where it touches smth

[celest dome]

doesn't need to touch to feel/transmit heat

[storm jungle]

Lasgun gets hot, simple as

[storm jungle]

also this lol

[verbal path]

All the internals get hot too. Krieg lasguns overheat like a gaming laptop.

[storm jungle]

Yeah like

lastech is not really advanced

so overheating and barrel-heat is pretty understandable

[queen laurel]

It's fires spicy lasers that turn people into cheese of course it will get hot

[celest dome]

Europe would love that tech

[storm jungle]

lmao

[dense salmon]

When you reload a lasgun in darktide

You can see superheated gas and sparks come out of the battery pack and battery receiver

The electrical charge generates a great deal of heat no different from your phone or any electrical device

Fun fact: the red "beam" we see isn't actually the lasbolt

It's retinal afterburn caused by the actual light wave

[dense salmon]

There's also the heat around the barrel and in the lasbolt's path generated by air particles being hit by the light beam

Iirc the lasgun battery packs are pretty easy to charge. You could throw them in a campfire to charge them

[warm notch]

And there’s no risk of it exploding? Or discharging something harmful?

[celest dome]

There is

It's not allowed, but you can charge them near a fire source

[warm notch]

Okay cuz I’m like

Throwing it directly into a campfire sounds really dangerous lmao

[celest dome]

Power cell can also be used as grenades but I'm not sure they've ever explained how to do so

[queen laurel]

Has that even happened in lore?

[undone zodiac]

Guess some overcharge trick

[queen laurel]

I mean yes they tell us that you can do that but did they ever show a character doing it?

[undone zodiac]

No clue

Its probably just another gw "tell dont show"

[verbal path]

It damages the power pack and gets you a stern talking and potentially punishment

[storm jungle]

I hope you like getting flogged

[celest dome]

It can also be "overcharged", a trick used by Guard veterans that causes the pack to explode, turning the weapon into a makeshift grenade. This tactic is only used in last-ditch situations, as it results in the destruction of the weapon. The resultant explosion, however, is powerful enough to crack open the frontal armor of a Chaos Dreadnought.
Imperial Armour Volume Five - The Siege of Vraks - Part One

[verbal path]

They do it in one of the Gaunt books

[undone zodiac]

"Making twin linked lasgun joke are you? whip"

[verbal path]

We already got twin linked lasguns

[queen laurel]

Damn that thing actually packs a decent amount of power

[verbal path]

The kantraels have a flashlight attached

[verbal path]

The dreadnought was heavily damaged, mind you. The lasgun grenade was just the last push

[undone zodiac]

There was snippet in some book of that flashlight+lasgun=twinlinked joke gets you flogged

[verbal path]

[dense salmon]

I could see a commissar or NCO making the guardsman reach an ungloved hand to retrieve the pack from the fire as an NJP

[undone zodiac]

What not to do near commissar
Do not retreat until he says so.
Do not look like you will retreat before he says so.
Do not think about retreating before he says so.
Do not think about thinking of retreating before he says so.
Do not retreat even WHEN he says so.
Do not refuse to retreat when he says so because you will later be shot for insubordination.
Do not be incompetent in battle, he'll execute you for being useless.

[karmic elm]

@carmine lynx how do you think Hadron's body looks under her cloack? OwO

[carmine lynx]

She's over 300, probably old and robotic

[karmic elm]

woa

what if she replaces her skin with like elastic matiriel?

could be pretty hot, i mean some people do wear black suits... ok i starting to hear myself and it sounds pervy

which i'm not!

but still gotta wonder lel

[drifting jacinth]

The comissar shouldn't order you to retreat they're a political officer, so not actually your hierarchical superior

[undone zodiac]

blam

[storm jungle]

Can you like, stop lol

also did you ever see her face

shes a fucking rotten potato

[karmic elm]

i already did stop

belive it or not looks is not all

[spare osprey]

Yeah gonna censor this but. Leak from the reveal stream later.

[karmic elm]

simple minded, hmpff

[spare osprey]

So hey

I’m a happy camper

[marsh berry]

[undone zodiac]

[marsh berry]

Hadron only moisturises her hands

Also why she got a basic ass peg-leg

[arctic talon]

This was expected but wow they look good

[arctic talon]

She’s too poor for more synthflesh

💀

[storm jungle]

Thats one part of her model i really dont like

like that hand is PRISTINE

[spare osprey]

Right?

[storm jungle]

literally ZERO damage

then her face is a fucking potato

[tough haven]

I simply could never have feelings for hadron because she’s a. Incredibly demeaning and I’m not into that, and b. Will probably kill me/dissect me

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

Me with any woman

[tough haven]

It’s intentional ok

[storm jungle]

Imma intentional your arteries

[tough haven]

Entirely understandable

[tough haven]

I don’t know what that means but I’m afraid

[arctic talon]

The fact her hand is pristine brings up questions

💀

Like

Did she take someone else’s

Is it vat grown or cloned

Is it synth flesh

Who the fuck knows

[marsh berry]

Hadrick the Grafted

[tough haven]

She just wants her hand to be higher quality since you use and interact with other objects with it a lot

[arctic talon]

Why not a metal one

She doesn’t seem all too attached to her flesh

[tough haven]

Can’t have no flesh leather looking hands touching the omnissiahs tools

[tough haven]

Perhaps she can’t obtain or afford one, or maybe she doesn’t want to get much closer to complete machinery

[storm jungle]

Bitch has a peg leg beats me 💀

[tough haven]

Different admech members/sects have different beliefs

[queen laurel]

https://youtu.be/gIOv1LTEEnk?si=iERp1muOIcrA-7u6

[tough haven]

Or more realistically fatshark just wanted it to be one hand metal one hand flesh to show the dichotomy of the mechanicus

[storm jungle]

THEN WHY A FUCKING PEG LEG

LMAO

[green loom]

Arr

[arctic talon]

She’s well past the crux already

[verbal path]

Mfw I have a more complicated leg prosthetic than hadron

[arctic talon]

I don’t think she disagrees with having her flesh replaced

[verbal path]

She's probably jealous

[undone zodiac]

Chad biologus

[tough haven]

There’s a long waiting list for legs alright?

[tough haven]

So true

[arctic talon]

No

[undone zodiac]

No machine compares to human body

[arctic talon]

Not when she can prolly make another lol

[verbal path]

All the rejects took the good legs with the shop rotation

[tough haven]

The crux? I don’t actually know much about admech lore, I’m a xenos fan

[verbal path]

She's stuck being a pirate

[arctic talon]

The crux mechanicum

Aka your body is over 50% machine

All I know is dem humie mekboys are weird, but den again all mekboys are

Tech priests generally remove the bits you would enjoy

Not all but

I wonder what makes red robe worlds so dangerous dat dey lose their limbs so much

[tough haven]

Some people really like machinery ok

[marsh berry]

I mean every Skitarii gets two

[green loom]

Muton looking ass

[tough haven]

Not me

[verbal path]

No OSHA compliance

[marsh berry]

You think a priest would be allowed one

[arctic talon]

Maybe the peg leg has sentimental value lol

[tough haven]

Hadron said she could wait a while back and she’s regretted it ever since

[tough haven]

True

Maybe she just likes pirates

[dense salmon]

Hadron seems to only observe courtesy with the shipmistress

"As you say, shipmistress..."

Oozing with sarcasm but still courtesy

[undone zodiac]

Shes does like michael jackson with one glove

[molten swan]

Probably just a weirdo that likes peg legs or something

Other admech 100% laugh at her for her peg leg

[dense salmon]

Real darktide enjoyers remember when hadron had no legs

[marsh berry]

AdMech only have peg legs when their Magos is too lazy to kitbash something that looks good and uses a piece of whittled sprue instead

[storm jungle]

Its okay honey we got Admech at home

Admech at home

[dense salmon]

Look at my techpriest dawg my equipment is falling apart 💀

[green loom]

Show jawas

[undone zodiac]

Maybe its heavy stubber barrel as leg

That would be dank

[marsh berry]

I mean the actual answer is that it's next to impossible to see said leg without mods so they just reused the one from the Psyker's peg leg cosmetic

But it's still funny

[undone zodiac]

[verbal path]

[storm jungle]

[dense salmon]

I saw what you deleted

[shell barn]

I wish Tyranids were like raccoons that scrounge through trash and if you shine a light on them they just run

[storm jungle]

thats the playerbase of this game

so kinda close

[marsh berry]

Dilara can you add me to the adult-only roleplay channel

[storm jungle]

You got f-list for that

[marsh berry]

Okay okay I get it

Mods only

[near wasp]

[dense salmon]

Just buy the majorkill calendars

[near wasp]

This chat is so cursed sometimes

[near wasp]

His patreon sucks

I mean what who said that

[dense salmon]

I would sub if it was for a free mini

I dont want the rest of the patreon content

[verbal path]

No I don't wanna go back

[celest dome]

f-list ?

[verbal path]

[marsh berry]

I guess like

the opposite of A-lister

[celest dome]

Ah, I though of something else

[karmic elm]

woa, where did my img go?

[near wasp]

Dilara smited it

[dense salmon]

Lost to the immaterium

[karmic elm]

why?

did it break a rule?

[near wasp]

Prolly cause it was meme

[karmic elm]

... no... yes?...

[rose thorn]

Crazy how 40k youtubers have the absolute worse AOS takes

[celest dome]

Not a meme channel

[dense salmon]

NSFW images are generally not allowed

[karmic elm]

what makes it a meme?

and it was safe for work

[dense salmon]

I only saw it for half of a second but I saw it was NSFW

[rose thorn]

Oh shit

[near wasp]

Just dont argue the judgement

[dense salmon]

Age of Sigmar is super divisive

I like it though

But I was never really into old world

[rose thorn]

Yeah old world is ASSSSSSSS

[spare osprey]

I don’t mind either tbh

[celest dome]

Most 40k youtuber are not really interested in fantasy/AoS
And usually just try to create engagement by delivering dumb thing that they know people who don't care will like

[rose thorn]

But AOS is great , it’s just a fantasy setting

[rose thorn]

Yeah definitely

[queen laurel]

Yeah i've grown with it

[dense salmon]

My friend plays age of sigmar and I play 40k

[celest dome]

Both are great for their own reasons

[queen laurel]

It's definitely become one of my more favorites

[dense salmon]

He can't convince me to play fantasy and I can't convince him to play 40k

He actually hates the stormcast eternals though

And some end times content

[rose thorn]

I saw this YouTuber that’s like ‘want to make AOS good? Make cities the main characters!’ IT WAS

[celest dome]

Which ones ?

[dense salmon]

Who knows, he was deliberately vague because I dont know the lore as well

[rose thorn]

Cities were the main character in old world and it sucked for new players

[celest dome]

You mean Empire ?

[rose thorn]

Yeah my bad

[celest dome]

Empire was the most popular

[rose thorn]

Yeah it’s my favorite in total war

[celest dome]

The only thing I dislike in AoS are the Fyreslayer

[queen laurel]

I used to hate iron jawz but my god they have grown on me

[near wasp]

Im a rat at heart

[celest dome]

iirc Skaven are getting a refresh next

[undone zodiac]

I like the beastmen but their range looks shit

[warm notch]

Skaven are hot

Fight me

[storm jungle]

Stop.

[spring cairn]

some people need to lose their citizenship and internet acess

[plush mason]

[rose thorn]

Honestly i love them, silly naked screaming mercenaries

[warm notch]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-fuego-gif-26833875

I exist to annoy

[queen laurel]

I'm going to be honest it's kind of common not going to lie a good chunk of people just like skaven

[rose thorn]

pls paint your figher slayer's anyother way and they willl look great

[plush mason]

same. i dont think they hot tho

[rose thorn]

fyreslayers*

[queen laurel]

That's the unfortunate part

A lot of people think they are

[plush mason]

yeah i know

[queen laurel]

Oh well no point in the dwelling about it now

People will like questionable things no matter how many times you ask them not to

[plush mason]

true

and ngl i fully expect that 40k r34 has existed for longer than i have lol
