40k-lore-chat

[orchid lark]

They cant really mesh with society

You think Jurgen smelt bad and was unappealing to look at

[bold wren]

If space marines are so strong why are orks so overpowered.

And their stats can nearly one shot most space marines.

Orks are probably better because they don't speak a lot they just fight.

Space Marines just yap then fight you.

[queen laurel]

are talking about the table top or lore?

[bold wren]

Table Top and Lore.

They're pretty good in both.

Bad Moons have some crazy orks.

[orchid lark]

Orks love to fight

Thats why strong

[bold wren]

Gaz is a great example of a badass.

I mean Gaz also has respect and most don't want to kill him at least orks.

Orks respect him enough to not overthrow him or he is just strong enough not to get overthrown.

[orchid lark]

Play the Space Marine Game, and see the Orks talk

[queen laurel]

lore wise the smallest orks in a warband the boyz would absolutely lose to a space marine in terms of strength even though they are a lot stronger then an average human
Nobz which are the second largest can match a space marine and even overpower them
a warboss which is the leader of a war band on average the smallest ones are around 10 feet which is the size of a fully grown Ogryn

[bold wren]

Because orks are lead by the strongest and most cunning.

Most ork leaders aren't that stupid and if they're a bad leader they will die to other orks.

[queen laurel]

Most times a lot of war bosses are straightforward brutes

favouring gork over mork

[orchid lark]

Also are very big

And very augmented

[bold wren]

Gaz is a special ork.

He isn't just a brute.

I mean he is the damn closest to being a krork

[orchid lark]

The Primorks were

[queen laurel]

he is pretty cool but this guy is also up there, Da Gargantsmasha Ulfthak Blackhawk

[bold wren]

Blackhawk defeated a knight and in table top he is crazy good too.

The name of his squig is named princess. So goofy.

[queen laurel]

lore wise he literally killed a warlord class Titan with some help from nothing more than a squig a grot and his other ork buddy

[bold wren]

His squig named princess?

Sounds like a dog name.

[queen laurel]

yeah it's literally just princess

[bold wren]

I mean squigs are basically the dogs of the orks.

[queen laurel]

He read the word Princeps wrong

And decided the name Princess because he thought Princeps was Princess

[bold wren]

Orks eat everything so they gobble up humans?

[storm jungle]

Yes

free food

[queen laurel]

yes they eat humans but they can't everything

[bold wren]

Most orks eat anything but they have tastes usually.

[storm jungle]

They really dont

they dont care most of the time

[queen laurel]

yeah food is food

[bold wren]

Depends on the ork some prefer a beer.

[storm jungle]

doesnt matter

Orks tend to be generally carnivore'ish

[queen laurel]

yeah

[bold wren]

Are they cannibals too?

[queen laurel]

a good squig pie with some drinks and they're pretty happy with the food

[bold wren]

Or is it worth eating another ork.

[queen laurel]

when the supplies are very low

[storm jungle]

Yeah they'll eat anything

cannibalism tends to be done out of desperation or just to be an asshole

[bold wren]

They're fungus makes sense.

[queen laurel]

Might makes right and since I literally defeated you in a fist fight I can eat you

And other orKs won't even bother you with it because you're the stronger orK so you're eating the weaker ONE

[bold wren]

Can't let a perfectly good meal go to waste at least.

Most orks will probably respect and be like okay boss.

If you are stronger that is.

[orchid lark]

Space Marines can eat trees, orks wont eat trees

[bold wren]

Space Marines eat memories

Weirdos

[orchid lark]

Just like Heartless

[storm jungle]

when the plot remembers yes

[queen laurel]

An ork is pretty content with life they only need three things bare necessities that they don't care about so that they can live, better weapons and an actual good fight

[storm jungle]

^

[orchid lark]

Or when the plot demands a space marine with a good omophagea to do it

[storm jungle]

Yep lmao

[bold wren]

Need a better weapon just kill a space marine

[storm jungle]

it is a very OP ability that almost no space marine ever uses

[bold wren]

Orks probably love bolters

[orchid lark]

Weaponise depression, make all depressed peoples have the most important plans

[storm jungle]

💀

[orchid lark]

Space marines get depressed

Easy win

[bold wren]

I mean they like dakka but explosive dakka.

[storm jungle]

orks like any gun

[bold wren]

Explosive Dakka equals better though

[storm jungle]

Not really

bullet-based dakka tends to be more preferred

https://tenor.com/view/more-dakka-warhammer40k-ork-orks-dakka-gif-15898836

[queen laurel]

yeah and most times only the rich ones or the more technological orks use energy weapons with how volatile it is

[bold wren]

Until you get Shokk Rifles

[storm jungle]

thats also niche

[queen laurel]

Those things are usually mounted

[storm jungle]

most orks use normal ballistic weapons

[orchid lark]

Orks do use lasers

Flashgitz

[bold wren]

Well Bad Moons used pretty advanced weapons.

Also

[storm jungle]

yeah and thats bad moons

theres no uniformity amongst orks

[queen laurel]

Lootaz with a Beamy Deffgun

[orchid lark]

Just Green

[bold wren]

Goffs, Bad Moons

One is all just melee

[queen laurel]

yeah but bad moons have a cheat code their teeth grow faster so that they have more money which means that they can afford better tech

[bold wren]

Speed Freeks

[queen laurel]

They literally flaunt their wealth by having so much gold that they wear it around their armor

And they use range combat over melee combat because they are afraid of getting their stuff stolen

Since they can afford the way to advance weapons they don't have to worry about the specifics

[bold wren]

Goff, Bad Moons, Speed Freeks all have pretty powerful war bosses. But Speed Freeks just are speed addicts.

Speed Addictions are cool racing is cool.

[bold wren]

I mean they probably have the best meks.

Or just go to a Rogue Trader and be like give me that Shoota.

[orchid lark]

No mention of the best orks

Freebootaz

Smh surrounded by no taste

[bold wren]

Pirate orks.

Speed Freeks are pretty cool.

I'm not gonna lie the addiction for speed makes some pretty cool scenarios

Going at suicidal break neck speeds.

[queen laurel]

no Evil sunz and Deathskullz

Evil sunz always tinker with the vehicles of their own war band since they use a lot of vehicles for hit and run tactics which is their specialty

DeathSkullz always interact with all types of technology from other species because of the clans habit of stealing stuff

[bold wren]

I mean Freebootaz are sells swords, and bandits.

[storm jungle]

You don't say

[bold wren]

They work with any tribe though making teef.

So orks with any hair on their body is probably a squig?

Not probably definitely

[storm jungle]

yes

[queen laurel]

yeah hair squigs

[bold wren]

But hair is usually viewed as dumb because it covers the eyes

[storm jungle]

?

[queen laurel]

no

[bold wren]

Too much hair anyways

[queen laurel]

orks literally wear it in any way they can

[green loom]

Oh hey it's my brainworsm

[queen laurel]

Ederius Moment

[green loom]

It's giving me a hard time for a sketch I made in 2 minutes so I'm beating it to death

[storm jungle]

more like, uh

hairworm

[orchid lark]

Those are called wigs

[green loom]

Steald

[bold wren]

Hair squigs you mean that implant themselves in your flesh.

[orchid lark]

Do what im doing fam, put the 40k art aside and draw OCs

[green loom]

I'm using primarchs and moving down from there as a like uhhhh

Adapter

To ease myself into drawing people

I've done a little practice and it's kinda paid off already

[orchid lark]

Thats good

[green loom]

Like it's not great but progress is there

[orchid lark]

Im in my 40k hiatus mode

[bold wren]

I mean to be honest Horus did nothing wrong believing the Imperium sucked. He just did wrong mortally wounding the Emperor, and making everyone become further corrupted.

[storm jungle]

"further corrupted"

lol

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-angle-stare-100-yard-stare-meme-gif-251436459491629941

[bold wren]

Or just dying and killing Sanguinis

[orchid lark]

Im slowly drawing more women

Dilara dont interrupt

[green loom]

Whomst

[bold wren]

Elf girls?

[orchid lark]

OC

[green loom]

I saw this on twitter but I didn't see a post of her

[bold wren]

Are you just drawing Eldar at this point.

[orchid lark]

The last time i drew an eldar

Was three months ago?

[storm jungle]

No thats an ork.

[bold wren]

They're just fucked up space elves.

[storm jungle]

"fucked up"

what

lmao

[bold wren]

I mean everything is in 40k.

[green loom]

I drew one a few months ago

[storm jungle]

based

[storm jungle]

bruh

nerf the tits a bit maybe lmao

[orchid lark]

Nah

I love boobs

[storm jungle]

Men moment

[green loom]

The aspect armour isn't actually that bad to do weirdly????

[storm jungle]

prob because Jes Goodwin knows artstyle

[bold wren]

Ain't Bright Pleasant

[green loom]

Think it lends well to angles becuase of the circular bits on top so it's easy to define

[orchid lark]

Boobs is life

[bold wren]

People who want Bright Pleasant are silly.

[storm jungle]

Speaking as a woman, you should explode.

[orchid lark]

The other two from the same time

[orchid lark]

Soon I will

[green loom]

Person I was doing a commission for
"I don't often say this, but could you make her a little bigger"

[storm jungle]

💀

[bold wren]

Boob armor is just popular in most media.

[orchid lark]

Want me to lie like most men and say shit I like personalty

[green loom]

Apparently I'm very prude

[orchid lark]

Nah I want BOTH

[storm jungle]

because most fanbases are made up of coomers

people like tits lol

doesnt make it good

[green loom]

I mean I like it in some contexts but

[bold wren]

It's bad armor I know

[green loom]

Basic plate with robes over it is superior

[orchid lark]

Boob armour in most media is stupid

[bold wren]

Just make regular breast plates.

[storm jungle]

gonna orbitally bombard Adam

[queen laurel]

i commend your honesty heavenly

[orchid lark]

Lying is a sin

[bold wren]

Being too truthful is just

Strange

[orchid lark]

I like men to be bara as fuck, and women with huge racks

2D of course

[queen laurel]

You have to lie sometimes you have to tell the truth that's just the way it is

[green loom]

I like soft men

[orchid lark]

3D i dont control women so theyre all okay to me

[bold wren]

All women are fine to me

[green loom]

Dilara do you have that Ultramarine edit

With "We're just like the Romans"

[storm jungle]

which one

oh lmao

i dont think so

[orchid lark]

Hard times make men soft

Or some shit

I don’t know

Id fuck soft men or whatever

[bold wren]

Hard times make everyone soft.

[queen laurel]

there's a sex joke here somewhere

[bold wren]

Women actually took over the male dominated industry during war.

[orchid lark]

Wanna look for it

[queen laurel]

nah

[orchid lark]

Understood

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-angle-stare-100-yard-stare-meme-gif-251436459491629941

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-angle-stare-100-yard-stare-meme-gif-251436459491629941

[storm jungle]

LMAO

there it is

[bold wren]

To be honest a man who cannot cook for himself isn't independent enough

[orchid lark]

Oh so I cant like big boobs and I cant fuck soft men

Fucking hate the inquisition

[storm jungle]

[bold wren]

Oh you can

It's just usually the weaker man.

[queen laurel]

i get your opinion but like can we avoid that subject because we are being way too deep into this shit

[orchid lark]

Theres the sex joke

[bold wren]

We have the sisters of battle.

[queen laurel]

we were talking about boobs and soft men now we're here

[bold wren]

What are you on about

[orchid lark]

What

What

Huh

[queen laurel]

Let's try to steer the train into another direction before it crashes into an orphanage

[bold wren]

All the future recruits dead

I mean

[orchid lark]

Dilara always hating on me

[bold wren]

Orphanages is where most of the soldiers come from.

We can't burn them down.

[orchid lark]

Are you fucking sleep deprived

[queen laurel]

Man how high are you

[storm jungle]

What the fuck am I reading

[bold wren]

We just abduct them and send into more wars.

[storm jungle]

THIS ISNT METAL GEAR

[bold wren]

The Imperium takes kids from orphanages.

And literally recruits them.

[storm jungle]

No it takes kids from everywhere

[orchid lark]

Oh wait wrong shit eating grin

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/mgr-jetstream-sam-gif-24954093

[orchid lark]

Howd you get this picture of me

[bold wren]

Only the best recruits are recruited from orphanages like that usually.

[storm jungle]

Creed wasnt from an orphanage

[bold wren]

Maybe because they're not guardsmen.

[storm jungle]

neither was Macharius

lol

[orchid lark]

The only recruits are from orphanages????

[storm jungle]

LDSFDLSSŞD

IM DYING

[orchid lark]

Like what

[storm jungle]

Bros pumping those orphans out 💀

[orchid lark]

To Dilaras point also yeah

[orchid lark]

Im the strongest deadbeat dad

[bold wren]

My brain spaced out forgive me for my sins

[orchid lark]

Most Warmasters and commandera

Believe it or not

[queen laurel]

i was about to knock you out

[orchid lark]

Are from@happy wealthy families

[green loom]

My opinion on this is simple

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsOUrBU-2R0&ab_channel=SloppyWalrus

[bold wren]

Actually do knock me out I need to sleep

Wouldn't mind.

[orchid lark]

Whats that

A Ban?

Make it so, number 2

Jokes

[queen laurel]

Aight

[rocky gale]

[queen laurel]

Ay if it isn't my favorite spire noble, do pardon the conversation because it did get too deep

[orchid lark]

Its Dilaras fault

Trust me

[rocky gale]

It's not typical I open a channel to see breasts bigger than my head

[queen laurel]

My good friend just let it slide trust me it's not that bad

It can get worse definitely but don't worry about it

[orchid lark]

I dont draw NSFW, I cant get worst unfortunately

[queen laurel]

Oh thank god

[orchid lark]

Drawing NSFW isnt fun or worthwhile for me

Very little point

Draw big boobs and draw@muscular dudes and thats it

Also maybe seraphine from League and Mirage

And space marines

[green loom]

I do

[orchid lark]

My mans

https://tenor.com/view/predator-handshake-muscle-strong-man-gif-5783927

[queen laurel]

My OCs are just written about because i can't draw but all of them are straight up killing machines that will give basically zero mercy

And a lot of them are warhammer orks

No surprise on that part

[orchid lark]

I only have one OrkC

[green loom]

I don't write my OCs

I just draw them

[orchid lark]

Its just a freebootaz captain

I do both lmao

So many documents

I care too much about 40k Homebrew stuff

Everytime theres a new thing for the setting

I check and rewrite a few docs

[queen laurel]

I have 11, 9 if you don't include the kaiju squig and the giant mechanical snake that can constrict around a emperor class titan

Actually make it 10

Because i have another one that is a gang leader in necromunda

[orchid lark]

Green Jim they calls him

Dont know why hes green

[queen laurel]

Because green is best

[orchid lark]

Understood boss, lets go kil-crump those Cawdors

[queen laurel]

WHY I'Z YOU'Z SPEAKIN LIKE A ZOGGIN 'UMIE?

[bold wren]

They're one of those imitators

Literal green face.

[celest dome]

Digganobz ?

[wintry scarab]

Would it be out of character for a space marine to have a Aquila tattoo on his forehead?

[green loom]

Not really

[rocky gale]

Yea not that unusual

Word Bearers literally got manuscripts tattooed onto them, so an aquila on the forehead isn't anything odd

[orchid lark]

Two chapters do ritual scarring

[crisp heath]

My homebrew character is Evilus Grimdork, he killed 10,000,000 and he has a big gun and he stomped around in the blood

[spring cairn]

1 man chapter

[crystal forum]

it's only a matter of time before GW sells movie rights to disney

i dont think GW sold anything to amazon

the IP rights i mean

selling would mean amazon gets like 100% of the profits

if this series really blows up i bet they'll get some very high offers for the rights

there's no way GW wouldn't immediately grab a large sum of money

as if the company has any backbone

[storm jungle]

Amazon can also just buy GW if it wants to.

But thats a hostile takeover

and they dont really care enough

[crystal forum]

i dont think amazon gives enough of a shit to get into the mini industry

they already have a lot of high value IP's

[storm jungle]

thats literally what I said yes

lmao

Also yeah that

[crystal forum]

yes but i said it better

[storm jungle]

GW is INCREDIBLY protective of warhammer

theres a reason they always outsource to people they can boss around

if its anyone bigger its straight back to cowering

[crystal forum]

nah i bet they turned those offers down because they werent high enough

selling movie rights doesnt mean GW doesnt own 40k anymore

[storm jungle]

Nah

GW has shown their protectiveness constantly

they really are that petty, idk why thats so hard to buy

[crystal forum]

the only thing i buy

[storm jungle]

is leman russ

[crystal forum]

is a cold refreshing coca cola™️

[storm jungle]

weird way to spell tanks

[river walrus]

Ulgo wonder why Atoma important? Lots of library and desert on planet. Why want it?

[crystal forum]

because everybody loves desert

[river walrus]

Ulgo like dessert too

[storm jungle]

🍮

[rocky gale]

It has good metal to make stronger tanks

[river walrus]

Is only reason?

[storm jungle]

Isnt that just... what warhammer already is

I mean do they

[crystal forum]

that would mean they'd want to hire writers to diverge from the source material. when do they ever do that

[storm jungle]

He doesn't know.

[crystal forum]

no im giving you marvel/DC flashback

[river walrus]

Ulgo think movie that workshop make. They not want lose anything because tiny bit to tiny bit they lose all of right to WarHammer

[storm jungle]

you say that like every DC/Marvel story doesnt diverge with every new story

lol

[crystal forum]

take it as you will

[river walrus]

Ulgo think that para- paran- Ulgo think doubt and fear make them do that

[storm jungle]

I'm not taking it in any way, its literally what they do

theres a reason the multiverse exists in-universe lol

[crystal forum]

no need to make it personal jeez

[storm jungle]

Imma nuke your multiverse

[celest dome]

That would depend on the contract

[crystal forum]

i'll just make another one

worked for marvel

[storm jungle]

good job

now you know how to be a comic writer

[rocky gale]

Isn't Marvel currently fighting to the death to keep an incredibly problematic Israeli superhero in the new Captain America movie?

[storm jungle]

WHAT

[rose thorn]

oh th edc multiversE?

[rose thorn]

HUH

[pine wedge]

they have pathological control issues to compensate for the lack of a backbone

[crystal forum]

minecraft planet?

[rocky gale]

Yea literally everyone is telling them to not put the character in the movie, but they're keeping her in even though they're doing reshoots/rewrites

[storm jungle]

THE MINECRAFT PLANET IS A SQUARE

LEARN YOUR LORE!!!!111!

[celest dome]

They're making a new Captain America ?

[crystal forum]

no

[storm jungle]

yes

[rose thorn]

[rocky gale]

Falcon is already Captain America

[storm jungle]

[rocky gale]

Sabra

[storm jungle]

Minecrafts your Leman Russ

[crystal forum]

NOOOOOOOOO

[rose thorn]

WHAT TEH FUCK

[river walrus]

Ulgo not go inside too small for him

[rocky gale]

Sabra has always been a controversial figure, but yea putting her in a movie now does not seem like it's going to go well

[crystal forum]

idk man im not sure but i think this superhero might be jewish

[celest dome]

Red Herring, she is obv a devout Christian Mormon

[crystal forum]

is her arch enemy called power palestinian

[rocky gale]

I think in one of the comics she does straight up just murder Palestinian children and is like "But they're the enemy"

[storm jungle]

God

okay as fucked up as that is

prob best to divert from this topic 💀

[rocky gale]

Yea, sorry

now idk if i want to print a macharius or a dorn

[crisp heath]

"Wide open bottom, ready to receive your shot" does this man want to bone the tank

[crystal forum]

no the model has no bottom

[queen laurel]

not the weirdest thing i've heard

unfortunately

[queen laurel]

saves on materials I guess

[crisp heath]

Hot take: it doesn't fuckin need one

If your tank is upside down something has gone horribly wrong

[crystal forum]

my brother in christ the model costs 120$

[queen laurel]

Yeah I was expecting it to be one of those

[crisp heath]

"Here's an extra flat panel you'll have to paint :3"

[spring cairn]

both

you'll print both

[crystal forum]

this is true

[crisp heath]

If you look at my minis from any kind of odd angle, sorry bud, it's gray

[crystal forum]

but i need to decide which one first

[crisp heath]

These things are like 4 inches tall and meant to be seen from the top down

[rose thorn]

imam stand by gw for once it litreally doesnt matter

[crystal forum]

it matters to me damn it

[orchid lark]

print the bottom then

easy fix

[rose thorn]

use a piece of cardboard

[queen laurel]

Unless you're looking for dead bodies I ran over there is no point in looking under a tank model

[crystal forum]

ok nut what if i want to do a turned over dorn as scenery

[queen laurel]

Then just print it you grey raccoon

[orchid lark]

ill use my master chief strength, and flip the tank over

[rose thorn]

also are you gonna use a 140 dollar model for scenery

[crystal forum]

yea

just to flex on plastic buyers

[orchid lark]

well, I hope its painted well then

[crisp heath]

The only "scenery" i need is a couple upside down shot glasses (they are mesas) and a pack of cigarettes

[crystal forum]

it wont be

it'll have 40 layers of paint unthinned

[orchid lark]

the only scenery I need is none cause I put all my models in boxes after i paint and assemble them

I dont like having my models out or displayed

I keep my nendoroids in their boxes still lmao

[crisp heath]

God to Lowes, buy blue wall paint, insert minis, shake, ultramarines

[rocky gale]

Really?

[crystal forum]

yes

[rocky gale]

It only costs us £60

[crystal forum]

because GW isnt fair

british people pay much less

[orchid lark]

I pay 77 dollars for it

[crystal forum]

australians pay the most i think

[orchid lark]

im Malaysian lmao

same price as the UK lmao

[rose thorn]

the us and australia pay when the pound was most valuable

[orchid lark]

i also buy from the LGS too

also a port country too

so

[rose thorn]

so like if something is 77 pounds today we pat the translation

[orchid lark]

just uh

dont be american

[crystal forum]

im not

neither are australians

[rocky gale]

Canadian Skill Issue

[rose thorn]

and we pay for shipment and a 10% increase

which are both baked into the price

so if you order it online you pay shipping twice

[rocky gale]

Big oof then

[orchid lark]

I think if I went to the local GW store, I think I pay the same as UK too

I havent ordered anything from the GW site

solely cause, I never felt the need to

that I also live like, 10 minutes from a LGS, and I kinda get next day delivery for orders from another store in another state

[crystal forum]

i just print

[rocky gale]

GW has some odd pricing, like Ireland has the same 15% price markup that continental Europe has, but Northern Ireland doesn't, so you could live next door to someone who's on the other side of the border and have to pay extra.

[crystal forum]

leman russ cost me 18$ canadian

[orchid lark]

sometimes I wait for the monthly sales, and get those sweet 15 to 20% discounts

[crystal forum]

maybe i should just print a baneblade

[rocky gale]

Print 6 stormlords

[orchid lark]

any hellhammer enjoyers?

thats my favourite variant for it

[crystal forum]

i do actually want a stormlord

but holy shit this is going to take a lot of resin

also idk if i should print this valhallan proxy i found

[orchid lark]

what about the sillier Malcador tank

any interest on that

I for some reason, really like that tank

I find its background lore

kinda endearing

[crystal forum]

it's kinda boring looking

doesn't have as much stuff going on as baneblade

[orchid lark]

cant argue with ya there

[crystal forum]

found it

i present to you

hellhammer except valhallan

and here's baneblade

[spring cairn]

bro put a turret on top of the sponson

[crystal forum]

yes

it's awesome

remember that these things are huge

[storm jungle]

Goofy ah

[crystal forum]

you guys are lame 😔

[spring cairn]

would be fine without the sponsons unde the turrets, they are marked optional so

[crystal forum]

yes

also those maxim guns are heavy bolters

and the dshk are autocannons

[storm jungle]

cringe

just stick to base designs

[rocky gale]

Follow the tried and true method of having a Krieg army with 3d printed Panzers as proxies for Leman Russ tanks, everyone will think you're the coolest person around.

[storm jungle]

💀

[spring cairn]

doing everything you can to deviate from cadians when building IG is COOL

[rocky gale]

Or the true ultra chad method use Panzer 35t and 38t (Czech tanks not German) and punch anyone who mentions German engineering.

[storm jungle]

lmao

vile

[arctic talon]

Lol

[crystal forum]

"base designs" says the person who doesnt play tabletop

i fucking HATE cadians

[arctic talon]

Lol

[storm jungle]

Me not playing tabletop doesn't mean I don't understand what a good warhammer model should be like dingus

IRL guns look cringe on 40k stuff lmao

maxwel!

you cannot convince me that water cooled heavy stubbers arent awesome

i mean bolters

[arctic talon]

I believe it’s a different cat called Uni

[crystal forum]

shit

[storm jungle]

fake fan

kill him

[crystal forum]

[crystal forum]

is there a non lethal injection

[queen laurel]

every single time

[crisp heath]

Jay was right that tank is awesome

[arctic talon]

Yeah, it’s meth

[crystal forum]

i'll take that option

[queen laurel]

there is also beating up your legs until you can no longer walk

you didn't specify if severe injuries are allowed

[rocky gale]

Not sure that qualifies as an injection

[arctic talon]

Bring back special weapon squads GW

[crystal forum]

i dont need legs if i have a SMALL SENTINEL

[arctic talon]

They were funny

[queen laurel]

he asked for non lethal options beating up someone's legs until they can no longer walk is not lethal

it ain't that hard

[rocky gale]

He asked for a non lethal injection

[crystal forum]

what's special weapon squads

[queen laurel]

potato potato

punishment is punishment

[arctic talon]

Squads priced like 5 normal guardsmen’s but you could pay to equip them all with the same special weapon

Shit was funny as hell

[queen laurel]

if i was there i would have already lit up a match

[arctic talon]

Glad to see the intrusive thoughts are winning

[queen laurel]

first step into becoming a Burnaboy

[crystal forum]

so like 5 melta guns?

[arctic talon]

That was the most expensive option but yeah

You could take 5 melta guns if you wanted lol

[crystal forum]

you know i just want conscripts

i want to spam trash infantry

[arctic talon]

Conscripts were so toxic for the game

But they could prolly come back in some form

(Do not let them receive orders ever)

I swear to god

Worst mistake ever

[crystal forum]

it's funny though

[queen laurel]

cheap expendable infantry being good in tabletop is a recurring theme huh

[rocky gale]

In 9th for the Sisters you used to be able to have a squad of Dominions with only special weapons, but then in 10th they force you to take a full 10 squad

[crystal forum]

people paying hundreds for infantry army

[rocky gale]

It's not as worth it

[arctic talon]

If it’s mobile, cheap and in large quantities

It’s good

This is like always true in 40k

Like scarabs

[rocky gale]

God whoever was responsible for the Sisters rules in 10th must have hated them

[crystal forum]

didnt they just reduce their point prices to buff them

[arctic talon]

Yesnt

They got some point nerfs

They got readjusted™️

[arctic talon]

Being forced to take 10 dominions is so stupid

Locked squad sizes in general

Are misery for most armies

[crystal forum]

10th being all about standardizing shit

[arctic talon]

It’s not standardization tho

[rocky gale]

Yea, like it doesn't even make sense the entire point of them is Dominions are the Special Weapon squad and the Retributors are a Heavy weapon squad.

[queen laurel]

speaking of mobile is an ork Speed vehicle army not viable still?

[arctic talon]

Bcs it isn’t consistent

Some armies can still take 5-10

Despite the kit coming with 10

[rocky gale]

But they let Retributors stay a 5 man squad, while Dominions got locked to 10 despite everyone always playing them as 5

[arctic talon]

Speedfreakz is fine rn

The main strategy is

Shoving beast boyz into a trukk

And then liberating your opponent

[crystal forum]

the boyz in da trukk

[arctic talon]

from life

[queen laurel]

Infantry is the best strong point of the orks huh

[crystal forum]

just the lads

[arctic talon]

Beast snagga’s very good rn

But ork vehicles also good

[queen laurel]

yeah especially the beastboss on a Squigosaur

I heard this guy can tear through a lot of characters

[arctic talon]

Yeah

Rn Orks are arguably playing like

[rocky gale]

and the really dumb thing is that when the rules first came out the Dominions Bolter had special stats and it made the change to forced 10 an acceptable loss, but then GW said that was a mistake and nerfed them.

[arctic talon]

Some weird vehicle snakebitez army

[queen laurel]

Snakebites embracing technology

[arctic talon]

10th in general feels disjointed

[queen laurel]

that is a hilarious concept

[crystal forum]

can't wait for 11th to remove all weapon choices

[arctic talon]

💀

I think GW thinks they went too far this edition

Seeing as the old world

Has the same “magic” system as 10e

But with a central pool of powers to pick from

[rocky gale]

Yea if anything it will be a complete 180. Each model will be completely modular to an absurd degree

[arctic talon]

Lol

[rocky gale]

This guardsman in this squad has a scope, so his range is actually +3" compared to the rest of the squad

[arctic talon]

My melta with a scope

[rocky gale]

Due to a RAW oversight the Cadian Castellan is able to mount a scope on their Power Fist to increase their range by 3 inches

[arctic talon]

Oh god

[crystal forum]

FUCK YEAH

[arctic talon]

Reach is back

[rocky gale]

The Space Marine Lieutenant has mounted a bayonet upgrade on their Power Sword for additional melee attacks

[crystal forum]

i just want tank options back

let me make my leman russ unique

[queen laurel]

Fuck kinda looney tunes ass ork engineering rule is this

[topaz igloo]

Since the inquisition is away...do..."pleasure servitors" exist?

[queen laurel]

umm

[crystal forum]

yes some servitors can extract fluids

[queen laurel]

a servitor can be equipped in many ways

[arctic talon]

Yes, I refuse to elaborate

[queen laurel]

So a pleasure servitor isn't out of the ordinary

[arctic talon]

Prolly some fucked up noble with one

[queen laurel]

heck noble kids are given toy servitors

yeah that sounds exactly as it is

People in warhammer get lobotomized in order to entertain the kid of a rich person

[topaz igloo]

Not fully, sometimes~

I feel like being forced to stay in 1 spot opening a door for the next hundred years is still better than being a drukhari's plaything(?)

[storm jungle]

Not really

both are shit

this is like saying "I feel like being nailed to a wall is better than being dipped in acid"

[topaz igloo]

Yea~

[storm jungle]

no

[topaz igloo]

One is slightly better than other~

[queen laurel]

Just because it's slightly better doesn't mean it's a good thing

suffering is still suffering

[topaz igloo]

Suffering gives me life!

[storm jungle]

Both are bad.

[rocky gale]

You'd rather been turned into a living/conscious skin chair with the nerve endings facing out than be lobotomised and open/close a door?

Wait no

I read what you said wrong

[topaz igloo]

Opposite ya

[rocky gale]

I thought you were saying you'd rather be captured by a Drukhari

My bad

[topaz igloo]

You could one day close it super fast on some inquisitor and then they will just terminate you and it'll be over~ but a drukhari has always more fantasy "campaigns" to play~

[storm jungle]

...

[queen laurel]

Dilara please I have been cleaning up the basement the amount of bodies you have been throwing here isn't going to help me clean it any further

[storm jungle]

[crystal forum]

woah cool it with the tilde remarks

[topaz igloo]

ok i've decided that my next print is this valhallan leman russ

[topaz igloo]

Are these just vrm models and you print them?

[crystal forum]

wtf is a vrm

[rocky gale]

Dunno what vrm is, but Valley Jay is indeed a filthy printer

[crystal forum]

feed me more delicious white goop

[rocky gale]

I'd rather not

[topaz igloo]

Vrm is a 3D model

One such file type anyways but alas

[crystal forum]

i work with STL's hun

and make them into G-code

[topaz igloo]

[rocky gale]

Currently reinstalling BG3 because the latest patch added forehead kisses

[undone gyro]

Question - are Inquisitors enhanced like Space marines?

I get a little confused on Librarians and Inquisitors and Psykers

Like in this cinematic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKgNUJczSYY& - this guy looks like a space marine ++

[celest dome]

You don't need SM upgrades to be able to use a Power Armour

[unborn phoenix]

Didn't an inquisition lady use power armor?

[celest dome]

It's from Inquisitor Martyr iirc, the Crusader archetype

[celest dome]

You're maybe thinking of the Terminator armour ? There is one, but it's rarer

[unborn phoenix]

Yeah that lady

[rocky gale]

Astor Sabbathiel my beloved

[crystal forum]

that's so dumb

aren't terminators literally made for space marines

[unborn phoenix]

She wasn't upgraded but it's evidently taxing

[rocky gale]

No

[celest dome]

No

[crystal forum]

yes they are

stop lying

terminator armour was developped for space marines

[unborn phoenix]

I mean normal lady used it

[celest dome]

Lorewise, except the New Volkite stuff nothing has been created explicitely for SM, only adapted for them

@storm jungle

[undone gyro]

isn't space marine armor and terminator armor different things

[celest dome]

Yes

But that Inquisitoress is using Termi pattern

[unborn phoenix]

You need incredible training and stuff to be a marine but specific training to be in a Terminator squad

[undone gyro]

So an Inquisitor is basically a sanctioned Psyker who is a Librarian with ranking and power armor ?

[rocky gale]

No

An Inquisitor can be a Psyker, but they don't have to be

[celest dome]

Inquisitor aren't necessarily Psykers

[rocky gale]

and only Space Marines can be Librarians

[crystal forum]

an inquisitor is just some dude or dudette with training

[celest dome]

And most Inquisitor don't use PA

[undone gyro]

like Grendyl

or we don't know, do we

[celest dome]

We have nothing known yet on Grendyl

Afaik, we don't even know its gender, appearance, whereabout...

[unborn phoenix]

Like one of those things where it's preferred but not necessary probably

[rocky gale]

and most of the time Astor isn't rocking around in Terminator Armour, she only uses it like once, she's usually like this.

[crystal forum]

why'd they have to ruin the look with that gay collar

[storm jungle]

Inquisitors are left incredibly open for homebrew purposes and for writers or people like you/us to make our own characters from them.

An Inquisitor can basically get any sort of gene enhancement and equipment to a degree as long as they got the right amount of resources, connections, power and influence.

[rocky gale]

The collar makes the look, you're just uncultured

[storm jungle]

^ also that

ushanka wearing motherfu-

[undone gyro]

Why do Inquisitors seem so similar to Librarians to me

[storm jungle]

they arent

where are you getting this connection

[crystal forum]

where does this notion even come from

[storm jungle]

lol jinx

[crystal forum]

they're like not even similar

[undone gyro]

dawn of war, I think

[storm jungle]

Uhh

[undone gyro]

the hero unit

[storm jungle]

no idea

I mean

a librarian is just a blue space marine whos a psyker

so idk

[celest dome]

Have I missed some backstory between the 2 of you ?

[undone gyro]

So if anyone can wear power armor, can't the warband get access to it ?

[storm jungle]

no we just like being mean

[storm jungle]

Like i said

you need BIG connections

its expensive equipment

[unborn phoenix]

Inquisition can probably get librarians for their missions maybe but that's kinda it

[celest dome]

We're not valuable enough

[storm jungle]

^

we are literally just normal troopers

[crystal forum]

dilara wishes she had the soviet swag

[storm jungle]

[undone gyro]

I could see a level we get to "borrow" some

[storm jungle]

I mean you cant

okay lets put it this way

you own terminator armor and are an inquisitor

would you let some random schmuck wear it

[celest dome]

Well, even less

[storm jungle]

lol

[storm jungle]

Nah with the latest update we are basically proper inquisitorial troops

we took the hereticus oath

we arent just hobos with guns

[unborn phoenix]

I mean we dress like it

[celest dome]

PA need specific training, plus making a small level where we use PA would be wasted Dev time, and while FS love to waste time, I don't

[storm jungle]

Thats more the players

as the cinematics like the carnival one show the rejects are properly equipped and dressed

[celest dome]

I mean we're lower Acolytes of the Reject Warband no ?

[storm jungle]

At this point we are an elite team

[storm jungle]

Still trusted enough to undertake high end missions

Zola basically handpicks you to go after the twins

same with the stimm mission

and the drug lab one

[crystal forum]

do people forget that level 30 you get told that you're actually useful

[storm jungle]

^

[unborn phoenix]

They still don't care if we die lol

[storm jungle]

I mean

thats Inquisition stuff lol

do you think generals IRL care when their troops die

to quote Rannick literally everyone from ship crew, to agents, to spies, etc are expendable

thats what this line of business is all about

[humble shoal]

Yup including rannick themself

[storm jungle]

Yep

if he fucks up his head is on the line

He isnt the boss, hes the manager

[humble shoal]

Also is that chick using a nemesis weapon?

[celest dome]

Who ?

[crystal forum]

what?

[unborn phoenix]

Hadron off handedly states our weapons are more valuable also lol

[storm jungle]

I mean thats also just a techpriest being a techpriest

lol

[humble shoal]

Or just normal spear

[crystal forum]

she's mech she's pissy about tech

[storm jungle]

^

She cares more about equipment than actual agents

this isnt just for us

[unborn phoenix]

Hadron a bitch lol but I love her

[humble shoal]

Until the enginseer comes, she cares about the enginseer enough to show off them toes

[storm jungle]

💀

[storm jungle]

Its a power-weapon, you can see the little stud on the other side of the spear's bottom

Nemesis weapons tned to have this box on the hilt

[crystal forum]

they really missed the comedic opportunity to make the enginseer act like a normal dude and call out hadron for being weird

[storm jungle]

LOL

[celest dome]

Which most Force weapons also have

[storm jungle]

also yep

[humble shoal]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

same with psyker weapons in the game

[storm jungle]

I love being a nerd that knows useless shit

sure is gonna get me places in life

not

[humble shoal]

You can sorta see how I get thrown off there

[rocky gale]

Plus Force weapons require a Psyker to use properly and Astor isn't one, so she probably wouldn't use one

[unborn phoenix]

Same

[storm jungle]

Also yeah thats the artist forgetting to include one

in comparison this one has a box

[humble shoal]

Tbf she looks like 50% of a grey knight terminator

Just missing the helmet and the blood of a whole order of sob.

[storm jungle]

[unborn phoenix]

Hadron goes on about data being eternal

[storm jungle]

Least evil Apple employee

[humble shoal]

Hadron is annoyed you didnt sign the eula

[crystal forum]

do you think they still have targeted ads in the year 40k

[humble shoal]

Yee

[arctic talon]

Probably

[humble shoal]

They killed them off

[storm jungle]

Porno-slates exist

[humble shoal]

I thought

[storm jungle]

so probably

wolf only chiming in for the important lore questions

Wolf's pic just makes me think of Amogus

[arctic talon]

I’m in a lecture and bored as shit

[humble shoal]

Reminder that mesozi is definitely the traitor.

[unborn phoenix]

Me sliding in hadron dm

[crystal forum]

mfw my futuristic electro truck rusts because rain

[storm jungle]

She's a woman and also black, definitely a traitor. I'm not sexist at all.

-Average darktide steam user

[arctic talon]

Oh my god it fails the crumple test lmao

[celest dome]

Sometime artist even are being more confusing, as far as we know it's a 2h Power and Force swords
From FS leaked arts

[humble shoal]

Mesozi is black?????

[storm jungle]

💀 💀 💀 💀 💀

[arctic talon]

She is

[unborn phoenix]

Hadron not black

She had one normal hand look atnit

[storm jungle]

hadron has that white girl hand

🤚

[arctic talon]

Prolly stole it from one

It’s way too new

[crystal forum]

your hands. hand them over

[arctic talon]

Compared to the skin on her face

[rocky gale]

She's just very good at moisturising that one hand

[unborn phoenix]

She has a full mask thing

[crystal forum]

she keeps it looking good for the enginseer

[arctic talon]

She does not

You can see her parts of her fleshy face

[unborn phoenix]

She does

[humble shoal]

Also masozi is the traiter because she lands at extract points sometimes filled with enemies and noone thinks to kill the pilot.

[unborn phoenix]

A full respirator thing

[crystal forum]

40k planes are pretty tanky

[arctic talon]

She literally has a solid third of her face exposed

[humble shoal]

Yeah but the back is open

[arctic talon]

Her entire face is not covered

[crystal forum]

not the cockpit

[humble shoal]

[crystal forum]

haha cock

[humble shoal]

Alright guys, I may have been mistaken. Masozi may not be the traitor.

[storm jungle]

wow

[rocky gale]

I just noticed her eyes glow green.... I wonder if she's secretly a Necron

[arctic talon]

I’m stabbing you

[crystal forum]

what would a necron spy even look like

[arctic talon]

Like a normal human

[crystal forum]

a skeleton in oversized clothes

[arctic talon]

They have ways to disguise themselves

[humble shoal]

I mean there are the fleshy necrons

[arctic talon]

Or just a mind shackled human

Either or

[crystal forum]

with a fake moustache

[arctic talon]

Wearing flesh is more apt

[unborn phoenix]

She's also mostly metal or mech, her face probably necrotic

[arctic talon]

Bruh Cawls got a better skin care routine then hadron

For his face

[humble shoal]

Cawl isnt real, he cant hurt me

[unborn phoenix]

Cawl also like in deep right next to Guilliman

[humble shoal]

He cant just will 20 legions of astartes into existence.....

[unborn phoenix]

Given time maybe

[crystal forum]

he can and he will make astartes for dead chapters

[arctic talon]

He had a little over 10,000 years

Tbf

[unborn phoenix]

Cawl has nothing but time

[rocky gale]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-wanna-see-me-do-it-again-gif-14496504

[arctic talon]

That’s a lot of time

[humble shoal]

Thats about the amount of time rylanor had

[unborn phoenix]

He just can't make primarchs lol

[humble shoal]

All he got was a dumb bomb

[arctic talon]

I mean yeah he isn’t bile

[crystal forum]

yet

[arctic talon]

Bile is built better

[humble shoal]

Bile is fabulousor

[storm jungle]

Cawl has a mini-primarch

Primus

he also created a Chatbot Guilliman

[arctic talon]

Wouldn’t call primus a mini primarch

[humble shoal]

Is cawl the true emperor not clickbait

[unborn phoenix]

If he learns more from the emperor's process then maybe a Primarch fully

[arctic talon]

More like an abomination

[storm jungle]

To be fair

[crystal forum]

the primarch we have at home

[storm jungle]

thats what I refer to all Primarchs

[storm jungle]

LITERALLY

[arctic talon]

Thing is practically a haemonculi experiment

[storm jungle]

Bile almost kills him too

Cawl begs him to stop

its a very good scene

[unborn phoenix]

Cawl is better cause mech

[arctic talon]

Cawl loves his creations children

[storm jungle]

[humble shoal]

Didnt bile make a primarch?

[arctic talon]
