arctic talon

Yeah fulgrim was trying to convince the clones to join him

storm jungle
#

Fucking Fabio

crystal forum
#

fulgrim yet again being unable to command anybody

unborn phoenix
#

That fulgrim apparently lacked a "soul"

#

Is what was said right?

dusk patrol
#

It’s not ever said in the book

dusk patrol
#

It’s just some clones were more special and perfect

storm jungle
#

Also

#

unrelated

humble shoal
storm jungle
#

im going through Fabio's wikipedia page

#

and uhhh

unborn phoenix
#

Well not a soul but lacked something

storm jungle
#

this man's gigachad levels is off the charts

#

along with being a weirdo

crystal forum
#

let the man have taste

humble shoal
#

Fabio is great, unlike fulgrim

dusk patrol
#

Rylanor is by far the most overhyped and “did nothing ever” dude the fanbase jerks off

#

He didn’t even successfully do the thing he did

storm jungle
#

But

#

he said one liner

crystal forum
#

he told a primarch to fuck off

dusk patrol
#

Some Tson got sad so he killed hkmself

storm jungle
#

LOL

dusk patrol
#

Damn that’s crazy

humble shoal
unborn phoenix
#

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

And also did something when they did it

humble shoal
#

But not on istvaan 3.....

dusk patrol
#

Yes you could

#

Literally

#

The whole planet had a bunch of marines giving the finger to their dad

#

And who directly fought them

humble shoal
#

Yeah but they didnt survive the bomb

unborn phoenix
#

Someone clone Ferrus already so there's more about him

dusk patrol
#

Mortarion and Angron both personally killed their sons

dusk patrol
#

They did

crystal forum
#

dusk patrol
#

Loken was

arctic talon
#

There was an entire fucking war on istvann

#

#

After the bombs

humble shoal
#

I thought loken left before the bomb went off?

dusk patrol
#

Yes

#

Which lasted for months

crystal forum

Literally the worst game type

crystal forum
#

unborn phoenix

It belongs on board games

At least most of the turn based 40k games have been good

humble shoal

unborn phoenix

Not consoles

Mfw someone new comes in and tries to enjoy niche lore which I’ve heard before so I hate it but they’re new so it’s still fun and exciting

rocky gale

The remembrancer artworks are great

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

shame the black books exploded

arctic talon
#

40k book idea, Necron crypteks travel between every single active warzone in the galaxy

There’s always more lore you haven’t read or heard of

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

Yeah after Alan Bligh died they basically also died out

dusk patrol
#

Yeah it was his baby

storm jungle
#

Yep

arctic talon
#

Feels bad

storm jungle
#

with him gone they just didnt bother

#

Yeah...

#

like the new HH rulebooks arent bad but man the lore is just meh

dusk patrol
#

Understandably I don’t think anyone wanted to try to continue them

storm jungle
#

Yeah its hard to match the guy that did like

Valhallans are mid

Mordian Iron guard is better

vostroyans are mid

rocky gale

All Guard regiments are mid except the one that's currently my favourite

humble shoal

Except for cadians, they are mid even if you like them.

storm jungle

Green Army Men representation???

crystal forum
#

if you're a cadian stan do not speak to me

humble shoal
#

Im not, they are mid

#

They stand

#

For mediocrity

storm jungle
#

The Planet farted before the Guard shatted

humble shoal
#

Except for creed

#

Creed can hide alpharius in his back pocket

#

But hes dead, so back to mid they are

storm jungle
#

Hes not dead more just uhhh

#

starring in Night in the Museum

humble shoal
#

Oh did trayzen borrow him?

storm jungle
#

Yeah right as the planet was blowing up

#

Creed stumbled. Despite the medics’ labours, his wounds still bled. He felt his strength ebbing as his lifeblood seeped into the greatcoat’s fabric. One last effort. Then he’d rest. One last effort.

The storm parted – not before a Daemon, but a metal giant in a scaled cloak. The wind snatched away Creed’s hurried shot. Light glittered upon the figure’s upraised palm, iridescent polygons billowing in a hypnotic dance.

‘Ursarkar E. Creed.’ The giant’s words slammed down like tombstones. ‘This need not be your end. Eternity awaits.’

The giant’s laughter followed Creed into darkness.

humble shoal
#

Understandable have a nice day

storm jungle

bruh

humble shoal
#

Did he take a piece of terrain as well?

storm jungle

Good, gotta get the whole scene

storm jungle
#

hes literally me

crystal forum
#

i heard rumors

#

that some people have skeletons inside them

storm jungle
#

thats fucked up

humble shoal
#

Necrons arent even skeletons

#

They're toasters

storm jungle
#

pretty hot stuff

dusk patrol
#

This is the display we’ve seen him on

humble shoal
#

I see

dusk patrol
#

The Thunder Warrior is a slight annoyance to me since Trayzn talks how humanity didn’t interest him until the heresy

#

But whatever

#

He’s also made “fake” displays before

#

Where he uses the armor and puts someone who wasn’t the right person in it or whatever

storm jungle
#

He also apparently cuts some vehicles in half

#

to like, show the interior lmao

dusk patrol
#

He has an Ad Mech dude he wakes up sometimes to show him stuff and fuck around with in return he lets him send dead drops of information to the Imperium

humble shoal
#

Ad mech guy is in heaven

storm jungle
#

He literally is lmao

#

he also tells trazyn to keep him awake when hes in stasis

#

and Trazyn is like

#

"No. You would not want that."

#

Good old "Hey tech boy" energy

Hmm, that "tech boy" has tentacles and a chaos brand on his head?

arctic talon

No

storm jungle

No hes just a normal tekhead

Just a normal ass magos biologis

“Normal”

Okay yeah

rocky gale
#

So yea Sons of Horus/Luna Wolves

dusk patrol
#

He has a perfect collection of helmets from every legion, chapter, companies, so on

rose thorn
#

Weird spot to put I thought

#

And to leave the helmet damaged?

humble shoal
dusk patrol
#

It probably has some significance to him

#

He will often apply damage himself for diaromas he makes

rose thorn
#

Tryzan probably plays warhammer

that thunder warrior in trazyn's collection must be so confused if he wakes up

#

Learning about the ordo Barbarus im surprised humanity actually cares about primitive human worlds

green loom
#

Infinity is cool

winged jacinth
rose thorn
#

They specifically just make sure they don’t start ‘deviant worshipping’

#

A space marine chapter that specifically works with the ordo barbarus would be cool

#

Drops into a pre industrial world ‘we want your strongest child warriors’

#

Or children if strongest warriors

#

Then just leaves

#

Kinda act like protecting primitive worlds

#

Specifically do that

#

A question regarding Lucius' possession power: if a Man of Iron kills him, would his soul manifest into a computer virus or would the machine literally become Lucius?

#

Cuz if you ask me, I think Lucius becoming a virus would be much more dangerous

rose thorn
#

Spanish makes up the rules as they go

#

Slaanesh*

storm jungle
#

It doesnt matter

crisp heath
#

Emperor's Spears

storm jungle
#

he basically has literal plot armor

errant yacht
storm jungle
#

Correct.

#

Dont think too hard on it

errant yacht
#

I mentioned AI specifically cuz I assume that the sentient machines built by pre-Imperial humanity are capable of feeling emotion

crisp heath
#

Lucius isn't even that bad, he's basically just a daemon with a quick turnaround time

storm jungle
#

Slaanesh would just summon him back

#

theres no way to kill Lucius unless you kill him with something like the Emperor's sword which grants true-death

crisp heath
#

Ephrael Stern true killed daemons while she was literally asleep. I love my absolutely broken edge queen

errant yacht
#

If his consciousness did manifest as malware, it'd be even more dangerous cuz the machine he's possessing would in theory, be able to bring itself to a manufactorum and if he were to infect its central computer, he'd have an army of robotic Luciuses that are imbued by his curse

storm jungle
#

Thats not how his curse works

#

its supernatural, it only applies to him and him only

crisp heath
#

I just love that most old characters in the current setting are nerfed but when they brought back Stern they just said make her stronger

storm jungle
#

he'll always just spawn out of someone else

errant yacht
#

If his consciousness were to manifest as a computer virus, wouldn't he be able to Ctrl+C Ctrl-V himself across a manufacturing plant?

storm jungle
#

Like I said no. That's not how his curse works.

#

He'll always spawn out of a living person.

#

A single one.

crisp heath
#

Supernatural computer viruses are a thing in 40k and I don't think they've ever accomplished anything of consequence

storm jungle
#

Those are warp-viruses with shit like scrap-code.

#

Its not the same thing.

crisp heath
#

No I'm just saying that even if they did use that idea it'd probably be more of a nerf than anything

storm jungle
#

his powers are just bullshit anyway so

crisp heath
#

Lucius just toggled off dying

errant yacht
#

I was more wondering if a machine afflicted by Lucius would suffer a software infection, or if its hardware will transform into Lucius' Warp-tainted flesh and bones

storm jungle
#

For the last time

#

no it wouldn't

crisp heath
#

He'd probably become the guy who made the machine, and Lucius can possess dead people so it's always a valid option

storm jungle
#

^

#

that landmine incident is prob the goofiest example of how far he can stretch his curse

crisp heath
#

AI might be sentient but it's not considered alive for most purposes in 40k, see: the admech lore about AI, literally anything about necrons

#

Ironkin are considered alive by the Votann but we haven't seen if they're alive for chaos stuff yet

#

I love Necron's opinions on life

#

90% of Necrons: what is this hell? I am but a soulless machine

Necron destroyers: HELL YEAH IM A SOULLESS MACHINE

It's funny that they added dialogue for if you race-traitor and join Stormcloaks as a dark elf

crisp heath
#

Are there any stories of chaos fallen characters realizing what they are doing and turning away from the dark powers after already falling in or is it a one way trip?

sacred ginkgo

Its one way

#

People realizing they fucked up happens

they just can't do anything about it except die

young pecan
arctic talon
#

odds are if you realize you're going down the uh

#

chaos path

#

you either eat your own gun or you double down

#

And writers tend to not touch it that much

#

tbh

#

Biggest example is prolly The Anchorite

young pecan

Yeah, that's the vast majority of what happens unless you are exceedingly Built Different

Imagine if big E was just like "mental health matters lil bros" right before he got chair'd

Kislev got a cool lady knight

queen laurel
celest dome
#

I'm sort of disappointed on the Old World lore for Kislev

crisp heath
#

Old world was made to cash in on the success of Vermintide and total warhammer

#

It’s going to be a little rushed tbh

green loom
#

Lore overall has been nice

#

Apparently the book is pretty good

#

God votann are getting dunk on

celest dome
green loom
#

What's the lore on them?

celest dome
#

This

green loom
#

oh

celest dome
#

Coming back to the Hag Mothers now, as previously mentioned there is only one “Hag Mother” in the current lore of Kislev as told by Games Workshop and this is Mother Ostankya herself. This lore is very new as is Mother Ostankya herself in the IP, so I want to inform you as best as I can to share with you who she is, how she aids Kislev and why there are no other Hag Mothers in the lore or our game.
That I dislike, I would have prefered to have kept Hag Witches and Elder Hags/Hag Mother

green loom
#

In fairness that's WHFB smilecat

#

I half joke

Also this:

#

And I'm in favour of the Shard Dragon for Dwarfs

But that thing just make me thing of Cathay

Frost Wyrm

queen laurel

#

Yeah I didn't get that one either lmao

queen laurel
#

Wings and four legs

#

That is just way too cathay

Kislev has been mostly a failure for TWW3 imo

I do like the kislevite warriors with halberds tho

I forgot having two heads isn't normal for a dragon

#

Because average fantasy usually having multiple headed dragons is like pretty f****** normal to me

celest dome
#

THis is the Frost Wyrm

queen laurel
celest dome
queen laurel
celest dome
#

I didn't even notice the 2nd one

#

Still Wyrms/Dragon/Drake... are all types given by the appearance of the monster, like you wouldn't call it a Hydra if it doesn't have the multiples heads

queen laurel
celest dome
#

Wyrms: 2 wings, 2 legs, 1 head no arms
Dragon:2 wings, 2 legs, 2 arms/legs, 1 head
Drake: 4 legs, 1 head no wings

queen laurel
celest dome
#

Calling it an Ice/Frost Drake would have been much easier

celest dome
#

Oh I confuse Wyrms and Wyverns

#

Still reman that it's a Drake, or at least a Lung Dragon (No idea that existed)

#

Well, "existed"

queen laurel
#

And you know the cathay Dragons basically

celest dome
#

TWW3 went astray with every additional content since release angymorrow

Also screw you now I feel like playing a fantasy game

#

Wyverns are cool, and under utilised

queen laurel
#

Well that can be better

celest dome
#

I think OK should have been kept for the 1st (Or second) race dlc, with them getting 4 Lords like usual

#

Getting Mr. Maneater and Brag the Gutsman as the 2 other lords
Mr. Maneater getting mechanics that lean toward using a lot of Maneater variants, and Brag being the Gnoblar horde lord

#

Mr. Maneater's name is no bueno KEKW_ogryn

queen laurel
celest dome
#

Could work, but I would prefer Mr. Maneater as a LL
So if they didn't go with their LH bs...

#

Oh and also the Pre Order should have been the Legion of Undeath
With 2 or 3 LL (Nagash, Nameless and Dieter)

queen laurel
#

Yeah I was actually kind of surprised he wasn't one of the legendary lords

celest dome
#

Ye

#

Would have loved to have a mechanic that lean on the Maneater variants, from Pirate to Empire, and from Kislevite to Ninja (Cathay)

queen laurel
#

could work for a Yhetee based army

celest dome
#

I think that one would be better as a LH tbh

queen laurel
green loom
#

The in game model for the frost wyrm isn't that bad

celest dome
#

It doesn't look bad, but it doesn't look like something that fit neither Kislev, nor the Hag Council

#

And I know it's very campy, but a Chicken Hut would have been much more in theme for the Dlc

#

This but instead fo a boat it's a Hut on earthworks legs in the vague shape of chicken feets

Same animation/stance from what I heard

queen laurel
#

Fuckin Grot stains

#

I'm not against reusing models and animations, here it does work, but the unit itself doesn't match well with the faction or race

queen laurel
#

those two combined makes this thing rather disappointing

Yeah, and I'm in favour of the Shard Dragon so it's even more annoying for me

They also wasted a lot of money on the scene with an undead Polar bear for no reason other than "We wanted to have a Undead Polar bear because we thought it would be cool and no one could stop us"

You know i think theyre gonna waste money and time on

#

The Three Body Body game in the story

Theyre gonna waste CG and money on it

When they couldve probably just

Animated it in a game engine

To make it more accurate

“But what if no one understands it.”

Thats because they knew what to fucking do

You see that Avatar Netflix shit

rocky gale

No it's coming out soon though

Like in a week or something

Its so bad

So many good netflix shows cancelled

And i have a feeling this shit is gonna make it through

This is Live Action Bumi

Theyre gonna fudge the numbers

#

The actors and how they look, thats a given

#

But the effects

#

Like come the fuck on

#

Did they honestly believe

#

They could replicate it

#

I dont wanna be rude

#

But those machines rendering that show should be destroyed Butlerian Jihad style

rocky gale
#

Netflix is so wild with their money, like they'll give absolutely nothing to a series that has actual promise and then give $55 million to a Film director who's never had a successful movie and then be surprised when he doesn't make anything successful

orchid lark

Whats that german show on the boat

Stranger Things seemingly going on forever

# green loom Money laundering!

This is actually a thing the US government is looking into with Warner about the fact they’re cancelling films as soon as they get completed

#

More of, Warner is writing them as massive tax write offs

#

And this is from last year pre the coyote film

#

There was a court hearing about it

green loom
#

Any big company is just changing hands from one group of uncaring shareholders to the next who all want either profit or a tax writeoff

orchid lark
#

Some senators were legitimately like asking Zavlan and Warner what the fuck are you doing

#

Solely because they were just doing so much of it and it was like

#

There’s just so much art technically being wasted for significant amount of tax writeoffs

#

Netflix on the other hand is also just

#

Batshit crazy

#

Cancelling shows, refusing payments and I believe even sabotaging shows ratings

rocky gale
# green loom Money laundering!

Apparently the dude was given the money to make a big Sci Fi series for them but he decided it wasn't enough money and couldn't ask for more so he started gambling with it and investing it into Stocks to make more money to fund the series but he just ended up losing the money and the series was cancelled

orchid lark
#

Oh yeah thats another one there lmao

Was it… Queer Eye for the Straight Guy got sabotaged, like Netflix ensured the next series for the franchise started with a different title

So thats gonna be a perma no

green loom
#

Yeah

rocky gale
#

It's so annoying because they rushed the the story along in season 2 so they could get to Six of Crows and King of Scars in the third season and then cancelled it after the second season

green loom
#

Look into it though it's hilarious

orchid lark
#

That super hero show

#

Jupiters something

#

Shame that got cancelled too

#

It wasnt good

But it was something different

#

Apologies to whoever actually likes Stranger Things, but people who liked that show a lot are very Co-Worker coded

green loom
#

Co-worker coded?

orchid lark
green loom
rocky gale
#

The really annoying thing about them cancelling Shadow and Bone is they released an online CYOA game for Shadow and Bone and said "News will be coming soon" and then a week later announced the show was cancelled. So they made everyone think season 3 was being announced and then just hit them with a rug pull.

And his punishment for all this is his aging body being returned to it's peak with the face of an 18 year old smarf

I'll genuinely never forgive them for the handling of Shadow and Bone, they basically crammed three books worth of stuff into the second season and basically skipped all of Alina's character arc so that they could get to the Six of Crows storyline quicker, then cancelled the show before we could actually get to the Six of Crows storyline

still a shame they could not fit Book 1 into a single movie but that would be a lot of runtime lol

I think this one is supposed to finish Book 1 and then the Director wants Pt3 to be the last one and cover Messiah but the Studio haven't confirmed whether they're doing Pt3 yet.

In lore does 40k use imperial or metric measuring

shadow plover

mostly metric

#

it varies a bit time to time but metric is the more common one

rocky gale

With GW being British I imagine they do what Britain does and use both

Surprised the imperium don’t use imperial

Also that aliens use the same measurement as humans

The greatest cosmic coincidence in 40k is the fact nearly all factions use Base 10

I had some questions about the autoguns, not the purpose more then the design.

#

Because they just look like an amalgamation of AK's, and M16's. With some features comparable to tommy guns. So autoguns might be a mix of smgs and assault rifles.

rocky gale
#

An autogun is basically any automatic weapon that shoots a solid projectile

bold wren
#

I know that but the designs.

rocky gale
#

What the question then?

bold wren
#

So they just shoot projectiles, but the designs are all over the place and have mix of like any gun.

#

But the design choices are strange.

#

To say the least they're usually very bulky like early sub machine guns.

#

And well prior to more synthetic lighter materials being used.

arctic talon
#

to be unique/distinct

storm jungle
#

We arent going for realism here yeah

#

its blocky brutalist guns

bold wren
#

I know this isn't real life, but said choices are interesting.

#

I'm just questioning and why they are the way they are the thought process. More then going for realism.

storm jungle
#

They look cool.

#

Thats it.

bold wren
#

But that explanation is boring.

storm jungle
#

I mean so?

#

GW arent gunsmiths

#

it doesnt matter

#

lol

bold wren
#

I never said they were gun smiths, I just am curious on their design choices.

lyric gyro
#

A theory: Many of them were taken during the dark age of technology, aka humanity's golden age, where they didn't get to test them.

storm jungle
#

There isnt a reason

bold wren
#

There is a reason you just aren't giving one. Choices are made with reason usually.

storm jungle
#

Same reason gun designs are so varied IRL

lyric gyro
#

There were so few wars humanity just made things that look cool. Humanity was so in control they didn't need them.

storm jungle
#

mankind doesnt have a unified factory output

#

lol

lyric gyro
#

but yeah, it's because they look cool

queen laurel
# storm jungle Because it looks cool.

GW is the definition of it only has to be cool it doesn't need to be realistic, you can literally stare around the setting and you will see multiple shit that is proving this point

storm jungle
#

^

storm jungle
#

you are just being pedantic

queen laurel
#

In this setting literal super soldiers with enough force to break down a steel door is going up against giant insects

lyric gyro
#

Are you guys trying to tell me desolation marines aren't realistic?

storm jungle
#

AUGHHH-

#

DONT

bold wren
#

Realism isn't realistic.

queen laurel
bold wren
#

Despite the name.

storm jungle
#

That's definitely a sentence.

#

anyway

rocky gale
storm jungle
#

Uhhh

#

something-something theres only Nerf

rocky gale
queen laurel
storm jungle
#

my boyz are loaded

bold wren
#

Because reality and fantasy can combine together. It makes the setting more dark with at least the realism of human suffering. But that's about it.

lyric gyro
#

Lore implications: Admech found a bunch of nerf guns, tried to use some of their features on actual firearms, thinking they were ancient weaponry.

queen laurel
lyric gyro
#

The tech priest who did that was then executed for heresy

storm jungle
#

best part is nerf guns work really well for 40k cosplays

#

since like 40k weapons they are made to look like toys lol

bold wren
#

Maybe because you can modify them.

storm jungle
#

Not really.

#

most Nerf guns are uncustomizable

#

trust me ı learned it the hard way 💀

queen laurel
#

Yeah it's just a gun that shoots a dart for fun

#

Like a revolver with a blank round

storm jungle
#

Theres some customizable ones

#

but they cost a fortune

#

lmao

lyric gyro
#

there is a big community for nerfgun mods

bold wren
#

People 3D print nerf boltguns.

lyric gyro
#

but in this case it's more that they use actual engineering skills to mod them

storm jungle
#

Yeah its a big market

rocky gale
#

It really is as simple as the design team taking inspiration from real life weapons to look cool, like how the Lasguns in the new Cadian sets look like M1 Garands.

#

and sometimes they mix and match designs

bold wren
#

You mean things that made guns like that expensive too from their weight and particular design.

queen laurel
bold wren
#

But what is price when you are probably gonna reuse the weapon you picked up from your dead guardsman.

#

Quartermasters would have your ass if you threw away a perfectly good weapon, so also that.

#

The military is already brutal enough losing a piece of gear you will lose your whole paycheck.

storm jungle
#

making it into a las-garand is ehhh

bold wren
#

Why do you think tech priests exist.

storm jungle
#

I mean no

#

it looks cool

#

Bloodsport also doesnt abuse his nanotech much

queen laurel
#

At least this one is more realistic compared to the other ones I will give it that

Love the guy but that nano suit can go **** itself

storm jungle

me when MCU

bold wren
#

I prefer actual designs that don't just randomly appears or can just pop out like that.

storm jungle
#

Its literally his character's thing

#

Im talking about bloodsport

#

iron man's shitty

#

and just the CGI artists being lazy

bold wren
#

I thought it was from blood.

queen laurel
#

Yeah blood sport is one of the few rare examples of nano tech being good

storm jungle
#

^

queen laurel
#

Also let me tell you this one is a lot better than the one in the comics

storm jungle
#

meanwhile literally the best part of the iron man movies was him suiting the fuck up

#

it looked badass and heavy

#

Like NOTHING can beat this shit

bold wren
#

Didn't bloodsport go after batman.

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Its DC so probably

#

everyone goes after each other

spare osprey

deadshot is more batman

bold wren
#

I mean in batman beyond he did but that show is a different batman.

#

But probably the best depiction of old man.

storm jungle
#

Deadshot is also ridiculously popular

#

idk why

#

i guess people just like sniper characters

queen laurel

LOL

bold wren

He is just Deadshot

queen laurel

like he literally is just a very amazing sniper

TF2 Moment

i enjoy arkham deadshot

Deadshot and Bloodsport basically the same thing.

not really

unless you mean hes a guy who has a gun

queen laurel

Also you know its good when the movie makes this joke

Yes really they look way too similar.

man this movie fucking slaps

i gotta rewatch it

In earlier designs anyways

Did I miss the master mercenary that is willing to work for everyone

yeah wow

look at the similarity

like uhhh

Blood sports original power making weapons just appear out of nowhere

Honestly based

a lot worse compared to nanotech

what’s the sources?

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Oh fucking 8th edition? Lmao

#

They did not keep that going long

queen laurel
#

yep

#

It's just another entity that became truth because of belief

rose thorn
#

Thank fuck because that was so stupid

queen laurel
#

If everyone believes in enough things it happens in warhammer apparently

rose thorn
#

Sorta true

#

But notn really, if the entity pre exists then it gets power

#

Otherwise enough psykers need to contribute to its creation

#

That’s why Eldar can make gods but not humans

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Sorta

queen laurel
#

that's how the chaos gods became a thing during the war in heaven

rose thorn
#

It’s implied they existed and fed off it

#

They weren’t really born just ate and grew power

queen laurel
#

But the tau in the 1st place isn't even that psychically gifted

#

Their souls are literally smaller than a bacteria compared to other species

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

So either the tau god is a species pretending and feeding off of it, their psyker Allies are like Eldar level, or its terrible lore and was scrapped

queen laurel
#

they indoctrinate other species into their teaching

#

Which means that those species in turn might worship the greater good

#

so it's not just the tau also include the ethereals and other stuff

rose thorn
#

Nah the wiki says it was created by their alloes

#

Allies*

queen laurel
#

yeah

#

remember they recruit every single thing that has a sentience

#

So it's not far off to say that some of their recruited people worship the teaching a little too much

rose thorn
#

The tau didn’t even like the so called god at first and shot at it

rose thorn
queen laurel
#

he tried diplomacy with orks

#

you know how that ended up

rose thorn
#

‘You either follow the greater good or you are a threat to it’

#

I’m annoyed because it’s a philosophy and not a religion

#

And the appeal of tau is that they aren’t the imperium

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

They have a separate struggle and separate story

queen laurel
#

aren't the strongest

#

So them having a God because the other people believe they do is kind of cheap

queen laurel
bold wren
#

The tau want to brainwash space marines and they die from their trauma.

#

Space Marines have so much emotional baggage I wonder why they are kept around.

#

Maybe because they use that anger for their power.

#

The tau are hated because they're aliens.

#

I mean it's kinda silly because Orks, Tyranids, Eldar are all xenos too and people like them.

unborn phoenix
#

Probably cause they're boring aliens? Idk just guessing

versed ledge
#

Because they're seen as "wholesome" in "muh grimderp"

unborn phoenix
#

There will be no peace

#

Get the Roman numeral XX as a tattoo

tulip brook
#

there's definitely some gatekeeping involved

#

tau armor appealing to gundam fans and their stories are more in line with common scifi tropes

the imperial guard is also in that department

They belong to the Collegia Titanica

queen laurel

And the titan legions is the most powerfull unit that the imperium deploy? Or would that be some kind of super marine?

celest dome
#

Nah on a entity to entity basis a Titan would be the top solution for the Imperium

rigid dune
#

Im just trying to understand in terms of strength what the titans are/can do. When they get deployed and why. Is it like a last resort thing or is it the "I win button" when they get used?

queen laurel
#

The exterminatus

celest dome
#

Then probably an Ordinatus

celest dome
storm jungle
#

A single ork jumping through a cockpit to kill the entire crew can sometimes destroy a single titan lol

celest dome
#

Then the Secutarii really f-ed up

queen laurel
rigid dune
#

So a ork that believe they can destroy a titan can, or a tyranid that gets evolved with a "anti titan strain"? To me it sounds like titans are more a morale thing that actually usefull 🤔

storm jungle

the fuck

no lmao

queen laurel

They aren't invulnerable but really tough and battlefield changers

queen laurel

ork belief isn't a strong as bending reality

storm jungle

Once a titan's shields are done it will basically get peppered and eventually die

#

its why it needs a good warzone to be deployed at + escorts

queen laurel
celest dome
#

With a single Melta Charge ? On a Knight maybe but a Titan would probably toughen it up, at least the initial explosion

queen laurel

#

Would it make sense for a titan to be somewhere in tertium? I think it would be cool to explore the inside of one

Or would the size not work in a city

queen laurel

you can come up with something to justify it being here

Tertium isnt a violent enough warzone for a titan.

#

so not yet.

spring cairn

aslong as it's inactive

#

like part of the map

storm jungle

Titans only get deployed when the warzone has like chaos marines, daemons, A FUCK TON of traitor forces across the planet, or other traitor titans.

The stakes need to be higher than a cultist/traitor guard planetary uprising
