#

Yes by Primarch standards he's not the best

green loom
#

Compared to a marine he may as well be an M1 Abrams next to a WW2 era PUMA

queen laurel
#

But by the standards of a space marine he's about to slap that guy so hard he will fly to the next sector

summer mural
#

Could Sigi beat a custodes though

green loom
#

Ye

summer mural
#

yeah I think he could

#

he nearly killed abbadon right

dusk patrol
#

He’s not even really tbh

green loom
#

He's weak compared to daemon primarchs

dusk patrol
#

Like people bring up the tiers but

#

Alpharius almost killed Dorn

#

Guilliman almost traded with Angron

#

After fighting Lorgar

#

Sanguinius is the only one I’d say is actually a tier above them all for sure, where he’s just better

#

The rest have some who are better but

#

They can still all kill each other fine

#

Daemon primarchs obviously changing things

thorny turret
storm jungle
#

oh yeah also reminds me

#

Death and the End finally confirms one of the twins is fucking dead

#

so much for all the Alphas coping that both of them lived

#

lol

queen laurel
#

I know people will bring that up anytime soon I can just smell it

dusk patrol
#

Omegon literally says it to himself.

#

But then again that would require the fanbase to read the damn source material

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Yeah

storm jungle
#

because jesus

dusk patrol
#

Apparently they need to keep saying it

storm jungle
#

MY ALPHARINOS

random valley
dusk patrol
#

“Guys obviously Omegon was lying to himself in his internal monologue after he feels his twin die, it’s all a plot!”

queen laurel
# storm jungle because **jesus**

Me watching people say the twins are alive even though they got their ***** blasted by multiple plasma shoots and got brutally mauled by an Ogryn

dusk patrol
#

Alpharius has one of the most unambiguous deaths we see in the heresy too

storm jungle
#

The people just gaslight themselves into thinking its helping the Imperium when it genuinely isn't.

dusk patrol
#

And it makes it clear Dorn can tell it’s Alpharius and also you know he fucking duels with an almost kills Dorn

storm jungle
#

Its marketing/tabletop/lore clashing for presentation

green loom
queen laurel
random valley
storm jungle
#

Yeah pretty much

random valley
#

Missing potential

storm jungle
#

the AL gets zero loyalist showcase because it is a chaos army

dusk patrol
queen laurel
green loom
#

Everyone knows alpha legionaries are the most strongerestest marines!

queen laurel
#

I'm pretty sure people are literate and can read that the alpha legion are bad

dusk patrol

green loom
#

Only beaten out by my favourite character, the 12' tall Tyberos!

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Alphas are a lot more funnier when they are being evil.

random valley
#

Or at this point it might be the loyalist died and they went full traitor

storm jungle
#

ONE EXCERPT

#

LITERALLY HAS THEM RAINING POISON SNAKES ON A PLANET

green loom
#

The one scene

random valley
#

Yeah the loyalist one dying makes more sense

green loom
#

When 3 of their agents find out they infiltrated the same raven guard group on accident

#

"one of us is a commander?"

random valley
#

The entirety of AL gives me the vibes of a new spy player thinking he’s hot shit and has his really cool moment once and a while

thorny turret
#

AL?

storm jungle
#

Alpha Legion

summer mural
#

they have the best memes

#

theres one where alpharius did die and omegon replaced the emprah with his corpse disguised as the emprah

#

theres one where they have a third brother named sigmar

#

because greek alphabet

thorny turret
#

oh of course lol

green loom
#

My favourite AU is where the Alpha Legion aren't stupid

random valley
summer mural
#

my favourite meme of all time though is where Mephiston and Dante do a fusion dance and become Sanguinius reborn
please gw dont do it

rocky gale
#

Surely given the books it'd be Sanguinor and Mephiston combining to bring him back.

summer mural
#

that seems more plausible

#

with the light and dark aspects

#

~~ still, gw, dont bring sang back~~

rocky gale
#

I just want my little golden baby boy back

random valley
#

Is like a Sanguinor model so blood angles can have something

storm jungle
summer mural
#

regardless, at this point sanguinius is more likely to come back before Khan KEKW_ogryn

summer mural
random valley
#

Oh

#

I was like what lol snag is dead and Kahn isn’t

summer mural
#

sang is indeed dead

#

and hopefully he remains that way 🙏

random valley
#

Yeah

#

He’d honestly get ruined in 40k

#

In reality the sanguinor is more likely than Kahn tho

rocky gale
#

The only thing stopping me from buying the HH Sanguinius model is it's resin and I refuse to work with Forge World resin. If they release a plastic Sang then I'd shill so hard.

summer mural
#

khans too op, mans been blessed with all the common sense , the other primarchs didnt get any, khan got it all

#

he cant come back

random valley
#

Yeah

green loom
#

We'll get the primarchs for the available marine factions

#

Except maybe just Sanguinor for BA

random valley
#

Yeah

dusk patrol
#

Sanguinor yes

#

But Sanguinius is like Uncle Ben you know

storm jungle
#

Its very hard to tell

#

the sensible thing is obvious

#

but also you know, money

#

If GW actually resurrected Sanguinius with an amazing revamped miniature people would buy him like fucking crazy

random valley
#

They’ll probably make another HH sang Model

#

That’ll also make tons of money

dusk patrol
#

I think they’re very aware that they still need to do a narrative and there’s limits

#

Arks showed that well imo if anything

random valley
#

Without absolutely destroying the lore

dusk patrol
#

And their current choices

#

They also seem aware that they need to be careful how they go about bringing stuff back

storm jungle
#

The lore is always secondary but they would need a REALLY good excuse yeah

dusk patrol
#

Like obviously they’re there for profit but they’re also very protective of their brand and seem very committed to telling a story now

random valley
#

Keep in mind we’re also talking about GW they’ll never make the reasonable decision

storm jungle
#

Yeah its a balancing act lol

dusk patrol
#

They constantly make reasonable choices

#

The fanbase really exaggerates how bad they are

#

There’s issues but this is by far one of the best eras to be a 40k fan

green loom
#

More looks at it wrong

dusk patrol
#

If not the best

green loom
#

GW makes decisions to make money and this is very obvious KEKW_ogryn

random valley
#

As any company but for gw its dialed up

#

Not a lot but definitely up

dusk patrol
#

Slowly but surely everyone is getting updates, we got squats back somehow, even if I think they fumbled the start a bit, the story is progressing, lots of books for a lot of different groups

dusk patrol
#

At all

green loom
#

Problem is half the online fandom barely engages with the setting and is here mostly to just get mad over GW getting a notch wrong on a new lasgun model

dusk patrol
#

Companies exist to make money

random valley
dusk patrol
#

I might be confused then or misread but my point is GW caters to the fanbase a lot in recent years

#

Obviously it’s expensive but it’s not like you need models to live

dusk patrol
#

And you can always buy recasts or whatever

#

Like I said there’s definitely issues but it’s by far one of the best eras imo

green loom
#

"GW IS MOVING AWAY FROM THE TRUE LORE(That I learned from this extremely biased youtuber with a fake accent!), DOWN WITH GW, DEATH TO TOURISTS(I GOT INTO THE HOBBY 2 YEARS AGO)"

twilit musk

dusk patrol
#

Ngl all these 40k tubers sound the same to me

crisp heath
#

Yall realize your all right and wrong at the same time... yes companies are built to make money and yes gw is insanely picky about ips. That said, it's also on the consumer to direct that. As a community, interest in lore has grown recently. This is one of the better years to be a 40k fan. They are now incentivized to pursue narrative now, where as before they mostly pursued figurines and so on, not to say those arent still the major sellers. But lore interest is building and gw or any company for that matter would be ignorant to ignore such. Catering to a fan base... is literally the only way games survive long term. Nobody buys a game from a stuck up publisher to up their own ass to fix mistakes

random valley
green loom
#

The biggest difference between 40k tubers is how racist they are

storm jungle
#

LMAO

dusk patrol

Brtish and A**e

#

Ah fuck formatting messed up the joke

#

Anyways

vale fjord
#

How come hadron got a normal voice while the rest of the mechanicus sound like literal robots

tulip brook
#

I'm super confused. These guys have a publishing company pumping up books and they have huge sections of lore in codices and they don't care about lore?

vale fjord
#

The difference between KX and her voice...

crisp heath
#

@vale fjord because not all mechanics have the same implants. The "robot" sound is a vox implant where heir mouth used to be

#

I don't believe hadron has one

#

But I could be mistaken

Fatshark knows that the more fans who make adult content of her, the more new players they'll suck in later

Huh... I wonder if I'd gone to the prison world first, if I'd have found what was missing in the pit

tulip brook
# random valley Money > lore

of course. they are company, not a charity. it's natural they will invest in products that will sell. blame the fans for not caring much about neglected factions

#

they definitely care about story and lore with how much content they are pumping out

random valley
crisp heath

I'm not to blame, I enjoy tyranids more than women

#

Are there any ork’s types that reliably can take on space marines and not have to rely on sheer volume to win?

#

I mean 40 years ago it might have been different, when it was 12 guys with a passion project who could make a buck off it

crisp heath
#

But like, it's a company.

outer wave

crisp heath
#

I meme on GW, but it's the way of the world

tulip brook
crisp heath
#

In all honesty, I respect GWs. They're still surprisingly close to fans. It's just the nature of tabletop.

#

I just hope they learn from WotC and realize you can't control the most deeply invested nerds, and decide to accommodate them instead.

green loom
#

I think we're safe on that front KEKW_ogryn looks at space marines

outer wave
crisp heath
#

I'll be honest

#

I'm ok with ynarri dying off because they felt unimpressive

crisp heath
#

It's just "all elves together"

green loom
#

They look hilarious and people still buy them KEKW_ogryn

green loom
#

The worst part of the Desolation marines is that they're very easy to make look good

random valley
#

Yeah

green loom
#

The biggest failing of 90% of the Primaris line

#

Is that it's all just "Intercessor with XYZ"

#

I saw another that just gives them a foregrip and it immediately elevates them like crazy

crisp heath
#

Here's how I would write an ynnari type faction:

The Asuryani and Drukhari are naturally repulse by each other, but recognize each other as lost cousins who walk the same damned path. To this end, elite teams and even entire armies form of comingled indivuduals, relying on the support of anarchic corsairs, to ensure the survival of their race.

random valley
#

But I also just don’t t like the whole primarus ascetic

crisp heath
#

Simple.

#

Ynnari touch on a lot of that of course

#

I think where they went wrong was making it a distinct "cult"

#

Yvraine also isn't a very inspiring "leader". I would've leaned more on the "elf" stuff, maybe even making her some kind of exodite prophet.

tulip brook
#

I think they wanted ynnari and harlequins as divergent elf subfactions

#

they just half-assed the releases

versed ledge
dusk patrol
#

I think the idea of the Ynnari was fine as it was yeah just the execution wasn’t there

storm jungle
#

yeah also they needed a lot more custom models

#

theres so much shit you can do with necromancer eldar as a concept

#

instead they just ended up being a Soup Army, a thing no 40k player likes

crisp heath
#

You know what I think would be an amazing stand alone series of books or show? The emperor before 40k. Just like, a slice of life thing where we get to see him for who he really is in all his facets, and he's not just the imposing emperor nobody knows anything about. It doesn't have to answer his origin, but like... idk. Maybe a series on his life in the 21st century. Or an anthology of multiple ages of Mankind and his life in them. How he grew to think like he did. And maybe make the plans he has. I know a lot of people would rather leave the emperor a blank canvas with no answers, but I feel like this would be a happy middle ground. Not giving us anything too important, like how he was made or when, or anything to do with the story in 40k, but It would still give us insight to his character as a being.

#

Like, dude was a geneticist, scientist, philosopher, and probably every other career a person can be. Idk... feels like it'd be dope.

green loom
#

I'd love to see his research into eugenics

storm jungle
#

Lmao noooo

arctic talon
#

ngl I'd rather not get more info on the Emperor personally

#

I like how mysterious his past is

crisp heath
#

We know too much about him

arctic talon
#

And its interesting to wonder how he ended up the way he did

arctic talon
crisp heath
#

The only emperor content I'll approve of is the one where they confirm he's gay

#

I get that

#

I know I'm probably in the minority here

arctic talon
#

Tbh its fine to dream

crisp heath
#

Just something I'd like personally

#

I want a 230 page, canon gay erotic novel of the emperor. That's all.

arctic talon
#

so keep on dreaming heh

green loom
#

I wonder what he did in the peaceful period of the early 20th century

crisp heath
#

@crisp heath they have the authors for it

crisp heath
#

@green loom that's where I'm at

green loom
crisp heath
#

Like, what was he doing in the periods noone thinks about

crisp heath
#

I hate how many people just refuse to admit emps is a twink

green loom
#

I'd sooner see him running nondescript camps somewhere in Europe staregryn

crisp heath
#

Like Lion saw a twink, Astarte saw a twink, my man is a twink

#

What was he doing in the 60's? I wanna see hippie emp

arctic talon
#

Big E actually has the same physique as a persona protaganist

green loom
#

If my glorious leader was a godlike twink I'd serve him without question too

crisp heath
arctic talon
#

Big E is Joker

storm jungle
crisp heath
#

The only issue I have is joker thin

arctic talon
storm jungle
crisp heath
#

Everyone who saw his "true" form saw him as: average height, not fat nor thin, dark skin, long hair, looks young, and has kind, curious eyes

#

The man's a twink

green loom
#

Maybe he's just ArchonofFlesh

crisp heath
#

For the Femperor

#

@crisp heath no one has ever seen the Emperor's true form for certain. In every single encounter, his Visage changes.

#

Depending on who he's with

#

Maybe malcador and the lady who gave birth to the primarchs

#

Lion claims to have seen his true form, which he describes, and Astarte saw him at his most relaxed, which matched Lion's description

#

But even then I don't think it's clearly stated

#

Lion is mostly immune to warp stuff, and when the emperor arrived he saw through his illusion

green loom
#

I'm going to fluff that my homebrew domain portrays him as a lithe Twink

crisp heath
#

I actually think there's another person who described his "true" form, but it slips my mind

arctic talon
median marsh
#

Supposedly Sisters of Silence could see what emps looks like, an ordinary man, but theres no guarantee that its not emps making it so too

green loom
#

Isn't archon a dude?

arctic talon
#

They're a woman

crisp heath
#

No... I don't trust any of that. Literally the emperor has always used the warp to appear as he wants to the people seeing him. They may have seen similar things. But I doubt it was the emps true Visage. Mecahnicus see cold, calculated eyes devoid of emotion or compassion, unfazed by the vast calculations of humanities lives. Ravenguard catch glimpses of a normal man with intense eyes,
Sanguinius sees him as father, creator, and all things warmth and love, but a godly love, removed from mankind in a way. In Godblight, an eldar literally talks about how the Emperor's always been chameleonic. Sisters of silence see a wounded man in pain atop the throne with no power or psychic might, no holy halo. Every one sees him differently

arctic talon
#

at least according to what they've said

median marsh
#

also responsible for the goddamn flood of twink admech

green loom
#

Well that explains some stuff, they still look good though

green loom
#

Concerningly thin
But good

green loom
crisp heath
#

Lol yes

#

I believe archon is a woman. It's always in poor taste to cast doubt on what someone says in reference to themselves vis a vis gender.

green loom
#

I'll get to work right away

crisp heath
#

There a different topic on if archon is trans, but that's in poor taste for different reasons.

green loom
crisp heath
#

... yea... let's not go those routes...

#

Feel like that's asking for trouble

storm jungle
#

and their annoying admech content

crisp heath
#

I've only seen femboy stuff from archon so idk if they're into something actually upsetting

They do guro and uhhh

https://vxtwitter.com/warhammer/status/1736646307698167852 So not sure if this was talked about here, but Im wondering if they're announcing this to downplay the rumors or there's genuinely something coming around the corner

In December 2022 we announced Games Workshop and Amazon Studios had signed an agreement in principle to bring Warhammer 40,000 to screens big and small.

Today we have an update: we’ve now signed the full agreement and the next stage can begin!

It's uh
Yeah

storm jungle

Amazon 100% forced their hand

Ooooof

you obey or get lawyered

GW likes to play their cards close to their chest

But yeah I hadn't seen that before. I like gory movies and comics, so I'd probably have to see it to decide if it crosses my line, but I don't know if I want to talk bad about other people rn.l

arctic talon
#

generally speaking

#

I'd assume Amazon didn't like that lol

crisp heath
#

Nah, it's been in talks for a while, this was coming eventually

#

Henry Cavill was really pushing for it

#

@outer wave I'm good

arctic talon
#

I still think GW wouldn't announce it this early personally

outer wave
crisp heath
#

You don't have to do that please@outer wave

storm jungle
#

Lmao he did

outer wave
#

I'll get rid of it

crisp heath
#

Oh I thought he was gonna actually post the porn

outer wave
#

My brain is full of cursed knowledge

#

No no its just descriptions

green loom
#

Their share price dropped probably due to the rumours and not making insane profits so maybe they threw this out to draw interest?

arctic talon
#

idk

#

GW share price going up still lol

outer wave
#

Hmmm do I invest.....

#

Wait no it'll go down with any nerfs on the tabletop

#

Nvm

arctic talon
#

LOL

crisp heath
#

I've been hype for this since it's original announcement. Henry literally quit two major netflix productions because they weren't accurately portraying the source, and he's basically sworn to give as true an adaption as he can make

green loom
#

That's not really a good thing for older 40k books

crisp heath
#

Fair, but I doubt it's based off that

outer wave
crisp heath
#

He typically is from everything I've seen

#

He plays dnd and 40k tabletop as well

arctic talon
outer wave
#

Im very interested in this showing but I do hope its not going to get fucked over by Amazon execs

#

Or just corpo execs

green loom
#

Nah it won't

arctic talon
#

it'll be fine

green loom
#

Amazon is like

#

Pretty safe for shows

#

The odd one out being rings of power but that had a big heap of issues

crisp heath
#

I'm more worried about gw pulling it because they get scared it gives too much info away like they do everything else

#

I'm far more worried about gw than amazon

green loom
#

Otherwise Reacher, Boys, Invincible are all fine adaptations and it seems they're given pretty broad creative freedom

storm jungle
#

GW cannot do anything

#

what Amazon says goes

#

they really do not have any power over most of this stuff

crisp heath
#

Gw is a part of the agreement lol...

storm jungle
#

I mean no

crisp heath
#

It's still their ip

storm jungle
#

Amazon can literally just buy the IP if thye wanted

outer wave
#

I dont think they'll pull the show for some contrived reason just because they announced said show in the works

storm jungle
#

its how insignificant GW is lol

outer wave
#

If they do, they're going to lose alot of good will

crisp heath
#

No... they cant... if gw doesn't sell..

storm jungle
#

legal stuff works with who has the best lawyers and loopholes

#

💀

#

IP ownership is like the last thing

green loom
#

Though atm it's mostly just a discussion about them getting exclusive rights to produce 40k movies/tv shows

#

So like

outer wave
#

Well I can best any lawyer with my fists

green loom
#

The books and hobby are still their own thing

outer wave
#

So uh checkmate

green loom
#

It's still GW copyright

crisp heath
#

It literally doesn't matter. Amazon doesn't own the content on their platform... it's a streaming service. Some of it they do, but the vast majority, Amazon just allows on their platform through contracts like what's happening here. Nobody would be stupid enough to put the ip as collateral for the contract...

outer wave
#

Long as its nowhere close to Battletech levels of IP ownership bad and complicated, things should be okay

green loom
#

And again Amazon are like
Probably one of the less worrisome companies when it comes to "ruining the setting"

#

Like it's not Netflix smilecat

Silverwings are great

having a giant bird friend for life

crisp heath

Tom Felton is a damn cutie PA tootie

green loom
#

It'd be a great addition to the demacians but we'll never get one probably

#

We'll instead get 12 more generic anime characters from Ionia

arctic talon
#

Would be weird to implement as a champion

#

tbh

green loom
#

Not really, we've got mounted chars already

arctic talon
#

no like

#

size wise

#

would be weird to implement

#

Silverwings beeeeeg

#

I know just scale it down

green loom
#

Malphite is literally a mountain

arctic talon
#

is an answer

crisp heath
arctic talon
#

but my point is

#

that its still weird to implemant

#

that big of a mount + human sized rider

#

it would have to be Shyvana dragon form sized at least

#

imo

green loom
#

Younger silverwing/summon?

arctic talon
#

would work

#

I do want to see a silverwing in game

#

beyond the TFT one

green loom
#

There's on in TFT smilecat

arctic talon
#

I know

#

and they are very cute

green loom
#

It's adorable and makes cute noises

arctic talon

tbh

#

Demacia and Ionia are like

#

the 2 largest regions in terms of champ count lol

crisp heath
#

Oh shit... things just got weird in my game lol

arctic talon
#

17 to 18

#

17 for demacia 18 for ionia

#

actually its 19 now bcs Hwei exists lol

green loom
#

They're so cute
The big ones too, even if they can trivially rip you in half!

arctic talon
#

I'd pet a silverwing

#

assuming it wouldn't tear my head off lol

crisp heath
#

So basically, some servitors started acting weird. Me and the High Factorum go to check them out, and they start miming me. I move closer, and now I have the option to plunge the dagger I got from the Master of Whispers into one of their hearts....

Obviously Heretical

That'll reveal itself in time, a funny revelation

The richest area in Noxus's capital still looks like a brutalist hell hole lol

crisp heath
#

Honestly though... gotta admit that looks dope af

#

I'd live there

arctic talon
#

probably

just need to worry about political assassinations lol

#

then again if you die you aren't deserving of your position

tulip brook

gray featureless concrete walls all around, like living on top of a dam, nty I wouldn't live there

All of noxus’s Capitol looks like that

#

It’s very depressing

dusk patrol

That’s what they get for naming it Noxus

Primaris generally have the MIV styled helmet

#

which is used for MKX

tulip brook
#

in lore: primaris have more practical and simpler looking gear and firstborn are mostly veterans with higher ranks, unless they crossed the rubicon primaris

arctic talon
#

There's also veteran primaris now

#

its been long enough tbh

#

But a lot of veterans are still firstborn mostly

remote blaze
#

For now, they'll get Thunder Warriored soon

green loom
#

They'll just die out normally

#

Though also the difference between primaris and firstborn is like, pretty minimal lol

remote blaze
#

"Oh noooooooo, the entiee first company died fighting the tyranids! Aw heck, guess we'll just have to use the primaris terminators now."

arctic talon
#

there's no difference?

#

terminator is a type of power armor

remote blaze
#

Thicc armor type

tulip brook
#

I think GW will just phase out the name altogether

arctic talon
#

they already have

#

new terminators and sternguard

#

are just called "terminators"

#

and "Sternguard veterans"

#

Primaris keyword also doesn't exist in the books anymore either

tulip brook
#

primaris for 40k and primaris scale older marks for 30k releases

arctic talon
#

there's already a new firstborn scale

#

that CSM and 30k use

tulip brook
#

yup that's what I'm talking about

remote blaze
#

You mean dweeb scale

tulip brook
#

no more smol marines

arctic talon
#

Tbf the new firstborn scale looks great

tulip brook
#

They're still just a little bit smaller than primaris

vale fjord
#

Did the emperor curse lamenters

arctic talon
#

no

#

they're just kind of stupid/too nice/some actual bad luck

tulip brook
#

they are part of "cursed founding" most of the chapters from that have some kind of problems

vale fjord
#

Basically the emperor cursed them

arctic talon
#

no

#

The Lamenters are like

#

genuinely fucking stupid sometimes

#

or too nice for their own good

tulip brook
#

lamentos, depression, bad luck, unfortunate paint scheme. firehawks, lost in the warp. black dragons, bones and blades sticking out. blood gorgons, immediately turned traitor. flame falcons, spontaneous combustion, excommunicated...

#

and minotaurs

arctic talon
#

Minotaurs are uh

#

hm

#

whats the word lol

#

A bunch of fucking assholes

#

Also all of the cursed founding has a thing where they might spontaniously mutate into a chaos spawn looking thing

#

Lamenters biggest thing is that they're constantly fucking depressed

#

and also that the black rage came back to screw them even harder

vale fjord
tulip brook
#

whole existence of minotaurs is a curse if you ask me but I wouldn't point finger at an old man in life support

arctic talon
#

Like

#

Explicitly

#

They joined decently late

vale fjord
#

And they're like going extinct due to the penitent crusade thingy

arctic talon
#

Knew something was up

#

They joined Huron still

#

They stayed on a planet infested with orks instead of just getting off it and leaving everyone to die to exterminatus

#

That’s both being stupid

#

And too nice

vale fjord
arctic talon
#

Them being abandoned in that one battle

vale fjord
#

Cursed with bad luck

arctic talon
#

Was just because of culture clash

vale fjord
#

Doesn't surprise me one bit considering it's 40k

arctic talon
#

It was literally bcs marines are spiteful assholes

#

And the 2 groups couldn’t get along

#

So they got abandoned

#

That one is arguably bad luck?

#

Getting lost in the warp is bad luck

vale fjord
#

Wait off topic

#

Getting lost in the warp is bad luck

#

But do you think the orks see it as good luck

arctic talon
#

No

#

Because they’ll be fighting the same thing too much

vale fjord
#

True

#

Gets boring when you fight the same gitz over and over

#

Anyway continue on with the lamenters

arctic talon
#

Them denying the gift from calgar

#

Was being too nice

#

Which gave them a bad rep from some other imperial groups

#

Second tyranic war they did some really stupid shit

#

Like landing in the middle of nids

#

(Why)

vale fjord
#

So

arctic talon
#

But their penitent crusade is over now

vale fjord
#

Cursed with stupidity

arctic talon
#

They got primaris reinforcements

arctic talon
#

But a lot of their bad luck incidents have an actual like reason why they happened

#

It’s like kicking a stray dog

#

And then like 3 months later

#

The same dog mauls you

vale fjord
#

Including the orks

arctic talon
#

No like

#

The lamenters are chronically depressed

vale fjord
#

Ah

arctic talon
#

They get very sad over things

vale fjord
#

So basically they're already depress even tho they didn't do anything

arctic talon
#

Mhm

#

They feel guilt over small things

#

Ect.

vale fjord
#

Nvm yea now I agree with the depression curse

arctic talon
#

It also ties into being too nice

vale fjord
#

Literally nothing happens to them

arctic talon
#

since they like

vale fjord
#

Proceeds to cry harder

arctic talon
#

feel really fucking bad sometimes

#

over small stuff

#

like the ork planet incident

#

they felt really bad about leaving those people behind

#

so they just decided to stay and die on the planet

#

instead of evacuating with who they could

vale fjord
#

I'm surprised they manage to survive for emperor knows how long

arctic talon
#

tbh they're on the Upturn now

vale fjord
#

Wazzat mean

arctic talon
#

they're doing good now

vale fjord
#

Ic ic

arctic talon
#

they got primaris reinforcments

#

their penitent crusade is over

#

only big downside is the black rage is back

#

💀

vale fjord
#

What exactly is the br?

mild rapids
#

Now the Celestial Lions got fucked over

storm jungle
#

The Celestial Lions are more tragic than Lamenters tbh

arctic talon
#

basically they start reliving the siege of terra

#

as either a blood angel or sanguinius

#

and they go insane

#

They see everyone but other blood angels as traitors

vale fjord
#

Yikes

arctic talon
#

on the upside they get stronger + more durable

#

but uh

#

Completely derranged lol

#

They need people to direct them to their targets

vale fjord
#

I now understand the rage part

arctic talon
#

Or else they'll just run around slaughtering whatever

vale fjord
#

And how exactly strong is the blood angel chapter?

arctic talon
#

Uhh

#

1000

#

give or take a few hundered

vale fjord
#

I c

arctic talon
#

the black rage is relatively rare

#

~~Unless you're the flesh tearers ~~

#

but it isn't an issue that happens outside of battle generally speaking

mild rapids
#

Blood Angels and Sucessors, Theres quite a lot of sucessor chapters from when the Legion got turned into chapters

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

all the blood angels successor chapters suffer from it

#

some worse some better

#

The Blood Drinkers ironically

#

don't suffer from it very much

mild rapids
#

Then theres the Dark Angels and their sucsessors who may as well still be a legion

arctic talon
#

tbh

#

Blood angels and Dark angels both sort of got that going on

#

Blood Angels are *very * close with their sucessors

soft thunder
#

So w/ all the Karnak's culinary tastes in mind, how much cannibalism happens on the frontlines or in general for Imperial Guard forces?

storm jungle
#

Rarely

#

cannibalism is considered "barbaric" and can result in usually execution

#

Ironic i know lol

soft thunder
#

is corpse starch only made in hive cities then?

storm jungle
#

Corpse-starch is usually relegated to very shitty hives

#

and even then since its "processed" its not technically cannibalism even tho it literally is

mild rapids
#

Though space marines can eat peoples flesh and gain their memories, its one of the Organs they get implanted

storm jungle
#

They eat for information not to feed themselves

#

and its only the brain

soft thunder
#

you would think fighting scifi aliens on inhospitable planets would result in a lot of inedible stuff to choose from if cut off from supply lines, but then again 40k is fluffy scifi not hard scifi

storm jungle
#

yeah most troopers choose to starve

#

like IRL cannibalism is mostly an act of desperation

tulip brook
#

to be fair, most of their fights are defensive wars in populated planets

storm jungle
#

its entirely dependable

#

the climate also factors into it

green loom
#

Dude
Heretic female VA Dilate

tulip brook
#

also, logistics, food and supply... aren't that interesting to write about and cannibalism is deep into grimderp category

storm jungle
#

Nah its entirely fitting to 40k

#

the Imperial warmachine barely functions half the time

#

and also disagreed with the first point, logistics is very fun in 40k, Imperial Armour's entire appeal was this

remote blaze
#

They literally feed poor people to other poor people.

#

Amd logistics are a core part of any decent IG novel. If we aren't complaining about a lack of las cells we aren't in a proper fight scene.

#

@storm jungle see... no. I believe in being the change I want to see. I'm tired of the entire gaming community being ok with shit like this. Games should be released in a playable state to everyone they promised would be able to play. And they almost never are. Instead we wait half a year to a year longer just to get the game we were originally supposed to have, and we bow at the feet of the makers like fucking sheep. I'm done with it. Darktide did it the worst, and now this shit. Didn't release like it was supposed to, was broken as all get out, and xbox had to wait a year and a half for it, just to still not really get the same experience PC does with all yalls mods. Console is at a massive disadvantage there. I'm absolutely tired of the bullshit from games manufacturers. Hopefully other people start feeling as I do as well...
