Does a magazine fed shotgun exist in universe or is all shotguns single shell loaded?

sacred ginkgo
#

It exists whenever they feel like it

#

So the answer is probably yes

#

Pump actions just look cooler and are more identifiable

green loom
queen laurel
#

So a fully automatic mag fed shotgun isn't outrageous

sacred ginkgo
#

We have bolt guns

queen laurel
#

Just look at stub weapons basically

sacred ginkgo
#

Human patterns could probably just accept 12 gauge shells out of the box

green loom

#

My beloved Slugs

sacred ginkgo
#

Human pattern bolt guns use .75 rounds right?

sacred ginkgo
#

Because 12 gauge is about .73

sacred ginkgo
#

You could probably just load a magazine with them and do a bit of prayer and it would just work

but only ogryns get those because only ogryns are cool enough.

queen laurel
# normal light How?

with the size of the shells it it would be an emplacement weapon or a mounted one

arctic talon

escher shotgun as well

queen laurel

but ogryns are still pretty strong so they can probably carry it

Astartes have auto shotguns too.

#

I have a really funny question

#

Isn't chimeric geed seed space marine literally product of incest

#

Like the space sharks have corvus and curze genes in them

shadow plover
#

What

#

No

rich patrol
#

If I said "I produced a child that has both me and my sisters DNA" everyone would be hol up

shadow plover
#

The marines aren't born by incestuous relations, they're normal kids that are then modified to become space marines

rich patrol
#

I mean genetic incest not romantic incest

#

And we can see the horrible result of that suspicious gene crossing cause most chimeric chapters are horribly mutated

dusk patrol
shadow plover
#

You aren't genetically incest either if you are given your brother's kidney for example

dusk patrol
#

But no its just combining the traits of two

#

Plus geneseed doesn't really work like that.

#

We've seen examples of geneseed being able to be replaced with other lineages also.

rich patrol
dusk patrol
#

We don't even know how chimeric works

arctic talon
#

^

dusk patrol
#

And its not really canon anymore.

normal light
#

still there is no such thing as incest in the process

dusk patrol
#

You're assuming a lot.

arctic talon
#

Also The Carchs are like explictly raven guard sucessors

rich patrol
#

I'm not one of those primarch shippers I'm just saying maybe chimeric gene seed marines are so mutated cause it's basically incest gene crafting

arctic talon
#

I mean

#

Honsu turned out okay

dusk patrol
#

I guess we're not reading today

normal light
#

I guess we don`t have enough lore

dusk patrol
#

Frankly speaking, geneseed mostly isn't that different between legions.

rocky gale
#

No reading allowed yesgryn

rich patrol
arctic talon
#

tbh the only legion with like a horrific flaw are Thousand Sons and Blood Angels tbh

dusk patrol
#

Look man if you want incest marines.

arctic talon
#

and one of them is external

dusk patrol
#

You can have them.

normal light
arctic talon
#

the other one is uh

#

A feature

dusk patrol
#

There's some stuff like Raven Guard being pale, Iron Hands geneseed having increased levels of toughness, Iron Warriors pain suppression, and so on but its largely a training thing.

rich patrol
dusk patrol
#

Honsou isn't really special in anyway.

dusk patrol
#

Honsou exists

rich patrol
#

Wait he's part imperial fist??

dusk patrol
#

He's half and half yes.

rich patrol
#

He does look hard

#

Pause that doesn't sound right

#

He looks RESILIENT

dusk patrol
#

He's good at what he does

rich patrol
#

But a half breed between two brothers is weird if you really think about it

dusk patrol
#

Its as weird as you personally wanna make it

#

if you know the implantation process.

rich patrol
#

I think the emperor knows this so he never fucked with chimerism

dusk patrol
#

He never needed to, he experimented a lot with each geneline.

#

Others experiment by combining traits.

rich patrol
#

But then again with the emperor's expert gene crafting why does baldness and the red thirst exist

#

He must've put them there on purpose

dusk patrol
#

Blood Angels are implied to be a biological weapon, Iron Hands are noted to have dangerous levels of toughness

dusk patrol
#

It was intentional.

rich patrol
#

But the emperor hates unstable and insane super warriors, that was why he killed the thunder warriors

dusk patrol
#

Blood Angels aren't Thunder Warriors

#

they weren't unstable or insane or unsustainable..

rich patrol
#

Wouldn't the blood angels act like crazy thunder warriors before reunited with sanguinous due to the unchecked red thirst

dusk patrol
#

The Revenant Legion had issues but even that did its job.

rocky gale
#

The Black Rage isn’t the same thing as the Red Thirst

dusk patrol
#

Thunder Warriors issue wasn't how they fought.

#

It was their expiration date.

#

They wouldn't have lasted.

#

They went nuts, fell apart, died, organ failures.

#

Revenant legion had issues but it was sustainable and did its job.

#

Early Space Wolves had similar issues.

#

They still fought effectively as a legion.

rich patrol
#

Still the red thirst seems more a liability than an effective weapon. Hard to believe that the emperor put it in as a feature

dusk patrol
#

Its not if you see it in action.

#

It has drawbacks.

#

Its still valuable.

green loom
#

Should be noted that the Revs were also close to being expunged

#

But weren't

dusk patrol
#

The Blood Angels are proof of its concept.

#

The Blood Angels and their successors in 40k use it as a weapon too when they need to.

#

Its a last resort for most but it does its job.

rich patrol
#

Why does sanguinous not suffer this problem since he's the progenitor of the gene

dusk patrol
#

He does

#

He just controls it much better.

rich patrol
#

I've never read about him drinking blood or eating bloody dead corpse

dusk patrol
#

That's because hes the peak of his legion.

#

His legion mostly didn't have issues after he took over until Signus Prime.

rich patrol
#

Didn't he execute a red thirst marine in front of Horus?

dusk patrol
#

When his legion feel under it when Ka'Bandha showed up he felt a draw but he was able to ignore it.

dusk patrol
#

They had a strict disiplinary system.

rich patrol
#

Also the super long lifespan of blood angels, like what makes them last longer than other marines if they're all basically biologically immortal

dusk patrol
#

Tbh that's a pretty nonsensical thing

#

We see plenty of old marines from all lineages

green loom
#

Dante is the only old old blood angel

dusk patrol
#

Dante is old but its not like marines die of old age.

#

There's an Iron Hand whose 1200+ years old, Ulrik the Slayer is probably 1100+

#

Dante is about 1500

#

He's old but marines living that long is mostly just luck of not dying in combat.

#

Or not being put into a dread

#

Sorry 1118 years old.

#

Dreads not included obviously.

#

Especially now, the Blood Angels if anything have a huge lack of old marines.

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

Its not natural aging.

#

And even then they still "lived" for like 10000+ years.

#

In universe its probably happened but we don't really see it that I can recall.

#

There's a story where Sallies find a Salamander from the heresy who was in suspended animation to survive, sitting on a throne.

#

And when they woke him up he was still alive, after 10,000 years. But he was barely cognizant and had starved even in the suspended animation, and was fused to the throne.

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

Imo if they can survive for 10,000+ years in those conditions with no sustenance even in suspended animation.

#

They can probably live a long long long time in ideal circumstances.

This is one of the times where removing the cost of Wargear is pretty lame, because it means there's literally no reason to ever pick the Blaster over the Heat Lance.

Even the additional damage from the +1 for Blaster isn't worth it because Melta 3 for Heat Lance means it gets +3 damage when within 9 inches (which is where you want to be with Reavers so they're within range to charge and fight in the next phase)

queen laurel

green loom
# queen laurel So yeah I would say that's pretty authentic

Just to make a few comments for understanding:

The tactic of zerging, and losing ground is not our doctrine. We try to fortify the ground we taken as best as we can. But you can only do so much, when the colonial counter-attack begins within 24 hours. No Bunker system or town will have the upgrades it needs before then to hold off against Tanks, Heavy Artillery, and now Rockets. Even though we lost ground, it's still not a defeat or even a equal trade off. Because the collies lost more resources, time, and so on... then we did. Our doctrine is a War of Attrition. Which is rather effective in a game that has unlimited natural resources to use to produce items.

As for organization and command. This is something that you can't see with outside eyes. To actually notice it you need to at least be in the regiment, to fully notice it you would have to be a Officer in training (Kriegsman) or an Officer. As these individuals use teamspeak to communicate between sections and the Legion Commander who commands all sections and support companies during the Operation.
You actually do notice this somewhat, but didn't realize it. Our supply situation is so good as these units are sending supply requests to our logistics battalion through teamspeak.

Thanks I needed that

signal ridge
#

quick question

#

would it be possible to play a chapter or a legion that has gone heretic. but from their pre-heresy days?

#

like from they were still loyalists

#

or even just play the last remaining loyalists of that now heretic chapter?

dusk patrol
#

You can play heresy

signal ridge
#

like huron fal or ullis temeter from the death guard

storm jungle
#

You mean like loyalist 30k legions from traitors that are in 40k?

dusk patrol
#

You can play heresy

#

Loyalist traitors in 40k from the heresy would require a lot of bending over backwards

storm jungle
#

Yeah unless its like a single Marine its too hard to make it make sense.

#

they'd actively have to rebrand themselves

dusk patrol
#

Basically all of them are dead by now

#

We don’t even have any actually confirmed successor chapters from any of them

#

Just a few implied

storm jungle
#

Even thats enough tbh. But either way yeah you gotta make a lot of excuses.

what would a tyranid fleet looks like that has successfully stolen costudes gene-seed? im curious

storm jungle
#

We dont know unfortunately

dusk patrol
#

Probably a Tyranid fleet

#

The using their genetics thing is generally more a reaction to new threats

#

Like Tyrant Guards were made from Astartes to specifically combat Astartes tactics

#

They block and guard the synapse creatures

celest dome
#

Did the Tyranids change since munching SM ?

dusk patrol
#

Which the marines target to fuck with the swarm

#

Same with Nids making psyker Nids to combat Eldar

signal ridge
#

oh that bumms me out i had hoped it was kind of like the zerg where once they get new strands they can create new powerfull variants and stuff

storm jungle
#

I love how we went from that to just

#

"idk more psychic nids yeet"

dusk patrol
#

Tbh GW has mostly moved away from them using these dudes as templates to make new forms

#

Cause you can’t really keep doing that

storm jungle
dusk patrol

Realistically they’ve munched on about everyone

the norn emmisery looks p cool imo

How about I turn you into a marketable plushie and put "Neuro" infront of your name.

I’m gonna Neuro your butt with my foot

storm jungle

💀

signal ridge
#

oh that kinda sucks, so nids are just shittier zerg?

dusk patrol
#

But yeah it’s not really like “These are Custodes Nids”

#

They’re adaptations and reactions

storm jungle
#

Nids are basically uh

#

combination of every generic sci-fi space bug race

#

they got literally EVERY trope under the belt

dusk patrol
green loom
#

Also what he said

dusk patrol

(I do like the Kerrigan Raynor romance to be clear)

The ending is actually really bittersweet

I pretend they got to be happy somehow

green loom
#

You will put on the bio-heels

signal ridge
#

i love both nids and zerg im just saying nids could probably use like... more interesting units made after absorbing certain enemies

dusk patrol
#

Or they just make dudes

signal ridge
#

depending on interpertation

dusk patrol
#

Tyrant Guard were more just a way to counter marines and other elites

dusk patrol
#

It’s ambiguous what it is though

#

But I pretend

#

What sells better will make sense in lore

storm jungle
#

almost every decision in warhammer is business oriented

arctic talon
#

I mean it’s always been the case

green loom
#

Because you know

#

They kinda make the lore

arctic talon
#

It’s why we didn’t get primaris Tacticals

#

Imo

green loom
#

The zerg aren't made a certain way because of "lore"
They have a playstyle and units are made to work with that playstyle

dusk patrol
#

At the end of the day is not like it’s hard to justify whatever for Nids

arctic talon
#

Yeah

dusk patrol
#

The goal of the hive mind isn’t exactly super clear and how they adapt can be varied

green loom
#

I imagine all 3 factions went through a phase where they discussed how well the designs would do commercially for starcraft

#

So that's present there too

dusk patrol
#

By goal I mean how it chooses to act next

green loom
#

Becuase that's kinda just how you do things

The Black armour/silver trim ones ?

so can you?

celest dome
#

Yes

storm jungle
#

Yes

arctic talon
celest dome
#

Yes, but they also have (had ?) bespoken rules

arctic talon
#

They had subfaction rules yeah

#

Custodes are prolly getting a shadow keeper themed detachment as well prolly

shell barn
#

How likely would a Ratling class be and fit into this game?

arctic talon
#

Very unlikely

dusk patrol
#

The main issue is their size

arctic talon
#

If it got added in it would be very ranged focus

dusk patrol
#

VT1/2 were built around Bardin

arctic talon
#

^

dusk patrol
#

Darktide isn’t

shell barn
#

Because I feel like they would add a 5th class eventually considering we have 5 slots and there’s no reason to have 2 of the same class

arctic talon
#

If they add a 5th class rattling is low

celest dome
dusk patrol
#

Probably Ad Mech themed I think

arctic talon
#

They don’t do much different from what veteran would

#

Gameplay wise imo

#

Maybe much more mobile

#

But they’re snipers

shell barn
#

People would eat Ad Mech up to be fair KEKW_ogryn

dusk patrol
#

The most obvious thing just because it’s different and they can do a lot with it

#

Imo

celest dome
dusk patrol
celest dome
shell barn
#

If Inquisitor Martyr taught me anything a summoner type class that could say, summon a small turret would be cool

dusk patrol
celest dome
#

Servitor would be more easy to make work. + Guardian Skulls as blitz

shell barn
#

My only thing is I’m just wondering, but hell yeah I’d take an Ad Mech class in a heart beat

arctic talon
#

Servoskull with a gun

dusk patrol
#

Servo with a shotgun

shell barn
#

Dude if you gave me one of those AdMech axes they have I would fork over my money for that

arctic talon
#

Wonder if they planned for us to have preset characters originally

dusk patrol
#

Charonite Ogryn confirmed

celest dome
#

I wouldn't think so, at least not from that image, they were just showing in short the 4 archetypes

arctic talon
#

True

celest dome
#

Remember the people being certain that hooded dude was an Eldar ? And then a dedicated Sniper (Due to having the purity, making it not a Xenos)

arctic talon
#

But they had a staff lol

celest dome
#

Yes, but people were arguing that it was the barrel of the sniper

arctic talon
#

Guh

celest dome
#

Without wondering how weird it would look to hold a sniper like that

#

I've been wondering about a Sister archetype for a while, and the biggest hurdle is the weapons, like blitz and ability is easy, but weapons I mostly fall on things that could/should be Zealot too

arctic talon
#

A SoB archetype would have a lot of overlap yeah

celest dome
#

Could see them have special variants instead of using the same weapons

arctic talon
#

True

storm jungle
#

Techpriest is prob the most likely

#

it would make a ton of cash

#

but again the effort to make a "custom" new character is fucking a lot

celest dome
#

Well it would be aleviated with people already have materials and dockets probably

storm jungle
#

I meant as in from a technical standpoint

#

like what will they even do, get 6 more voice actors?

#

and thats just the tip of the iceberg

dusk patrol
#

One person, 6 synthesizers

celest dome
#

Yeah the voice actors would be the biggest part in the deal, though I don't think it's entirely impossible, unlike it was with the U5 with the already set group

green loom
#

You get 6 more voice actors
Who each have to interact with each other and the already existing 21 voice actors

dusk patrol
#

They already bring them in for new stuff tbf

#

It’ll be a big thing but I don’t think it’ll be that nuts with how they’re already doing things

celest dome
#

I think it could be viable, simply cause it would sell like hotcake, and permit the sale of another group of cosmetics

storm jungle
#

Its easy to say than done

#

like you are literally working with over 50,000 voicelines

#

imagine sitting down to stitch all that shit together for convos lmao

celest dome
#

I'm not saying it would be easy, just that it could be viable

dusk patrol
#

I will complain if they don’t however

They transferred the consciousness of their entire population to these synthetic bodies, right?

There should be something inside other than just spite for anything with flesh

No they are all souless and have no free will

that was the irony of the transferrence

As a person that posts these memes sometimes basically its because 40k fans especially Imperial ones love to be in the shoes of these "badass heroes" and imagine fighting "Evil Forces of Darkness" because they are "gigachads".
