Nothing wrong with that honestly but I got a feeling he likes it for a different reason

[arctic talon]

[rose thorn]

game about the horrors of abuse by your family>

'this is the best game ever'

[green loom]

He's a blonde hair blue eyes nazi

Gotta preserve the genes

[arctic talon]

I will post french war propaganda

THE LITTLE GUY IN TEH CORNER

AHWA TGAHGAHAH

reminds me of this

thats waht i think hes oding

[green loom]

God

[arctic talon]

The soviets drew him as a rat instead

[green loom]

There's a unique kind of

Schadenfreude

[rose thorn]

let me send this to my partner who loves war stuff

[green loom]

Seeing arch make crap like that

[outer wave]

Right?

[green loom]

The chud becomes irrelevant

I kinda want to replace my marine pfp

[rose thorn]

he also posts loads of ai content

[arctic talon]

its good bait

So

Orks amiright

[green loom]

I know a handful of artists who'd maybe work with them but then they'd have to actually pay so

[crisp heath]

the rainbow warriors inject a hormone treatment so that they don't forget the beautiful wonder of boykissing

[green loom]

Tactless, skilless hacks using the cheapest crap available is not shocking

[rose thorn]

i was thinking about replacing my pfp in warhamemr discords with my ordo astra inquisitor but i havent even designed her yet

[green loom]

Brb grabbing my artist friend

[rose thorn]

based....

[dusk patrol]

Tbh I don’t even think that would qualify

[bold wren]

War pushes humanity to it's brink but 40k might be grim dark but humanity fights the good fight. Morality matters not when you are fighting for your lives

[dusk patrol]

People don’t get that war crime is pretty specific and killing civilians isn’t inherently a war crime if you’re targeting the enemy infrastructure and industry

Total War and all that

[bold wren]

I mean there is light in 40k and it's not even just imperial propaganda

[dusk patrol]

As horrific as Tokyo and Dresden were

[bold wren]

War is terrible but sometimes does bring out the best of some men

As some would try to help people even their enemies

[crisp heath]

The light in 40k mostly comes from the greased up pectoral muscles of a demigod, but like, in a straight way

[bold wren]

Historically I looked at all the good it brings out of some

Soldiers and their war stories are interesting

[rose thorn]

just saying you dont see people complain about how immoral shotguns were during ww2

[bold wren]

Yes you do

[rose thorn]

*according to nazi germany

[rose thorn]

oh

[bold wren]

They complained about it

[arctic talon]

Using incendiary weaponry on people is a warcrime iirc

[bold wren]

Because they got Americans with their shotguns

Then again British shotguns aren't too bad either

[arctic talon]

You’re only allowed to use it as a defoliant iirc

[dusk patrol]

They were just ass mad that shotguns were so effective

[rose thorn]

i have a memory of history teacher laughing about nazi germany complaining about shotguns

[arctic talon]

Which is why the US was dropping napalm in Vietnam like there was no tomorrow

[bold wren]

They used flamethrowers

[arctic talon]

It was ww1 for shotguns

[bold wren]

Which got replaced

[rose thorn]

but im an american i dont know what otehr ocuntries views were

[rose thorn]

oh sorry

[bold wren]

Flamethrowers kinda weren't that good

In a war

[arctic talon]

It’s a terror weapon

[bold wren]

To be honest the fire isn't scary

[dusk patrol]

It was a new tactic the US used at the end of WW1 and it caught the Central Powers by surprise

[bold wren]

It's the smoke

[dusk patrol]

Uh

It’s very scary

[bold wren]

It suffocates you

[arctic talon]

Seeing your buddy get cooked is scary

[dusk patrol]

But yes it sucks the oxygen out of air

[arctic talon]

Flamethrowers are a terror weapon in every way tbh

[dusk patrol]

People suffocated to death in the streets of Dresden and Tokyo

[arctic talon]

It’s hard to breath, you can’t see shit, dying to it is horrific

[bold wren]

An inefficient one usually

[dusk patrol]

It works great for the times they used it

[bold wren]

But who said it was made to be efficient

[dusk patrol]

Mostly in the pacific

It’s for clearing holes

[bold wren]

In jungles

Especially

Or just caves that trap the smoke

And suffocate everyone

[storm jungle]

Holy fuck WHAT IS THIS

[rose thorn]

I KNOW

[storm jungle]

Yeah id just... block

theres nothing to say. Simple brainfarts.

[dusk patrol]

Yeah I agreed, a Hazbin hotel watcher?

Disgusting

[storm jungle]

NOOO-

[rose thorn]

I’m just flabbergasted by him complaining about women in fiction and then praise hazbin hotel and coffin

[storm jungle]

Okay so only comment ill make that ill sum up with a tweet

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/932459941262921752/1229181304529227897/image.png?ex=662ebf4c&is=661c4a4c&hm=d20d0bada998e83a3fd4898281b5ef98360d0863d8bed2f300aa94e8da0f8ca3&

Thats all

Otherwise like yeah dont waste a single braincell on these people, theres nothing to argue about. Just internet trashfire.

[bold wren]

There is only one female custodes

[dusk patrol]

The confirmed there’s always been some

We just haven’t seen them

[bold wren]

They're probably serving a different thing then

[rose thorn]

Idk my old hammer lore very well but at one point wasn’t the emperor a raging sexist

[dusk patrol]

It’s a retcon or whatever you wanna call it but we’ve never seen most of the Custodes

[dusk patrol]

……..

Wat

[rose thorn]

I had a dream someone told me that but I can’t remember if that was true

[dusk patrol]

[bold wren]

As Custodes all have different jobs and some keep information

[dusk patrol]

No

[bold wren]

Emperor isn't sexist

[dusk patrol]

There’s always been a bunch of women in high ranking positions in the Imperium

[rose thorn]

I was considering making a custody shield that vibes on the emperor’s secret guarded of endangered plant and animal species

And go and collect endangered species

[dusk patrol]

Well you shouldn’t do that cause it’s cringe

[rose thorn]

Dman

I’ll zip bomb my self

[dusk patrol]

Just make them stab people with their spears like a normal person

[storm jungle]

I'd say make the grimdank aspect that they put all the things they capture/"rescue" in frozen stasis

and boom, evil enough lmao

[bold wren]

I mean ordo biologis or whatever it's called

[rose thorn]

Or maybe these plants and animals could be useful to humanity and they are like ‘nah’

[bold wren]

Does this

[rose thorn]

This plant cures cancer?

Too bad

[storm jungle]

Yeee its not a dumb idea, Eternal is just being an evil person

[dusk patrol]

The only stuff which is really annoying me is the people who can’t not say “UwU now we get musclely dommy mommies” like just say you’ve never had sex

[storm jungle]

THERE YOU GO

[bold wren]

They collect alien information to study them

[dusk patrol]

It’s faster

[storm jungle]

"Sir you are here to rescue us right!"

[outer wave]

Ignore the drama on twitter, just play with the funny toy soldiers

[storm jungle]

"No we are here for this species of animal"

kek

[bold wren]

Nah they just make weapons to better use their biology against aliens

They only research aliens to kill them

[dusk patrol]

The two are not mutually exclusive

[bold wren]

Not to make any important advancements

[storm jungle]

I have been using twitter for a very long time and generally its for artist following and commissioning but ive never blocked as many accounts in my life as I have today.

Just block, block, block. DO NOT read any dumb satement thats gonna suck the joy out of your scrolling/ruin your day

[rose thorn]

lmao

[dusk patrol]

But tbh you could just do the Shadowkeepers

That’s basically what they do

And they look cool

[storm jungle]

Shadowkeepers are more for just being wardens tbh

[outer wave]

I luckily follow only Warhammer artists that just post cute/cool shit

[storm jungle]

let the gal homebrew

[dusk patrol]

They go collect stuff too

[rose thorn]

GREEN CUSTDOIES

[dusk patrol]

Ugh

[rose thorn]

custodies

i can not spell in all caps

or in general

[dusk patrol]

Can you have a good idea by accident just once?

[bold wren]

Custodes

[dusk patrol]

[rose thorn]

wait really?

[green loom]

Emerald custodes

[storm jungle]

Custolives.

[dusk patrol]

Custards

[bold wren]

Yes custodes

[dusk patrol]

Wait

[storm jungle]

thas what we said

[green loom]

There's at least 3 named in the codex apparently

Plus has name tables with lady names

[storm jungle]

^

Sorry vivid

women exist

[dusk patrol]

Grimdark Janitors

[dusk patrol]

Source?

[storm jungle]

I uhhhh

Uhhh

[green loom]

A fact a concerning number of people have issue accepting for some reason

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/billy-eichner-parks-and-rec-gif-20196161

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

wrong gif

[dusk patrol]

I felt it was somehow relevant still

[rose thorn]

can we get male sisters of silence too?

[storm jungle]

Honestly

[rose thorn]

i know its a christianity refrence

[storm jungle]

nothing in lore says they cant get guys

so lmao

[rose thorn]

but we have sisters already

[bold wren]

Who needs them when the Gray Knights exists

[rose thorn]

whos gimmick is a chrisitanity refrence

[outer wave]

Lets get ourselves some real brothers in silence

[rose thorn]

and some Lads of Silence

[bold wren]

You know people actually made to hunt daemons

[storm jungle]

SoS's job isnt to hunt daemons tho

[arctic talon]

Sisters of Silence are part of the imperial household 🤓

[rose thorn]

get more models that arent 20 years old

[arctic talon]

beyond just helping the custodes against psychic threats

their main thing is like

Astra Telepathica stuff

which is really fucking funny

[bold wren]

Witch hunters that would probably hunt a Rogue Gray Knight

Which are psykers smh

[dusk patrol]

The Grey Knights would hunt a rogue grey knight

If one existed

[rose thorn]

'b b b bb ut grey knights are immUne to chaos'

fuck you, the silver knight of slaanesh

[bold wren]

If demi-gods can fall what is stopping Gray Knights

[dusk patrol]

All we know is none have fallen, some abstract unclear story doesn’t disprove that

They’ve never been immune

[bold wren]

I'm just saying

[dusk patrol]

Just very hard to corrupt especially for people who spend so much time around greater daemons and major warp events

[bold wren]

As immune to the warp as sanctioned psykers

[dusk patrol]

No

Far more

[arctic talon]

its the same thing as the Blood Angels codex claiming no one from the blood line of sanguinius has ever fallen to Khorne

(this one is actually straight up false)

[bold wren]

I mean they technically have

[arctic talon]

but GK as far as we know haven't had anyone fall yet

[green loom]

The actual answer is that since they're knowledgeable competent psykers they can actively combat the corruption of the warp from what I know

[bold wren]

Vampires are kinda related to demons especially what Sanguinis is based on

[green loom]

Vampires exist in universe

[dusk patrol]

Most of grey knight training is built around guarding their minds

[green loom]

They're warp predators or something

[dusk patrol]

Warding themselves

[bold wren]

I mean he fits the appearance of a vampire

[dusk patrol]

They’re constantly using their power to focus themselves and ward off corruption

The Grey Knghts books cover it

[storm jungle]

late but yeah this

like uh

the daemon sword cunt, Crowe?

He literally has to be the one to wield it because the daemon in it is so bad

it effects other GK

literally makes them tired

[bold wren]

I forget they use warp powered bullets

[rose thorn]

imma be real i dont like crowe but his model is baller

[storm jungle]

^

[dusk patrol]

The sword drained anyone else, basically killed them from the effort

[arctic talon]

Crowe's mini is goated

[storm jungle]

Yep

STRAWBERRY JAM SWORD

[rose thorn]

it would be cool if he is the only person that uses demon sword s but like

[dusk patrol]

Crowe is just too giga chad

[arctic talon]

It also was done 3 years before it actually came out

tbh I don't think Crowe is anything super weird personally

regarding named guy does something batshit insane

[rose thorn]

we literally have 20 space marines that use htem

[arctic talon]

at least in my opinion

[bold wren]

Daemonic swords are quite common

[arctic talon]

I think its just his daemonic sword likes giving people the Succ

[rose thorn]

literally several chapter masters of the space wolves use them

[arctic talon]

That axe is stupid

[rose thorn]

I HATE IT

AAAAA

[arctic talon]

it isn't even fully purified because of warzone fenris

[bold wren]

Well the thing about the gray knights is that psykers have warp powered boltguns

[arctic talon]

Since Khorne somehow acted via it

because ?????

[rose thorn]

psykers would hav ebeen cool if warhammer is like

[arctic talon]

JUST HAVE MAGNUS LEAVE AFTER HE FINISHED HIS WINS

[storm jungle]

Khorne was doing a LIL bit of trolling

[rose thorn]

4 editions old

WE HAVE SOO MUCH LROEEEEE

[arctic talon]

but no they had to have

[rose thorn]

too much

[arctic talon]

fuckin

[storm jungle]

murdered them with that sentence 💀

[arctic talon]

Magnus go for a victory lap

[storm jungle]

ALSO YEAH

[arctic talon]

so he could kill a bunch of space wolves

and then get deus ex khorned

[storm jungle]

was it fucking Logan who had the daemon axe? WITH ZERO CONSEQUENCES

[rose thorn]

AUHHAGHAHAHAAH

[arctic talon]

yeah at least Crowe strugglest against the sword sometimes

[storm jungle]

^

[arctic talon]

Logan just has a "purified" axe

[storm jungle]

Fuck off

[arctic talon]

THAT SOMEHOW KHORNE ACTED THROUGH

[dusk patrol]

Tbh his sword is like

[arctic talon]

LIKE EXCUSE ME?

[dusk patrol]

Way beyond that axe

[arctic talon]

Yeah

his sword is way beyond that axe

[storm jungle]

Im gonna send you way beyond too

INTO THE OCEAN

[arctic talon]

I still think warzone fenris is stupid

because of the khorne axe incident

it was going fine up until that part

[dusk patrol]

The sword is implied to be the piece of a god which predates the Chaos gods

He must consult the elder gods

[rose thorn]

the months of shame is some of the worst warhamemr lore fr

[storm jungle]

SHUT THE FUCK UP RAIDEN

I don't play bad fighting games like mortal kombat/j

[arctic talon]

Skull girls

[rose thorn]

[rose thorn]

ITS GOOD I SWEAR ITS GOOD I SWEAR

[dusk patrol]

I’m gonna hit you in the box you call a head

[rose thorn]

ITS REALLY GOOD AND BEGINNER FRIENDLY

[arctic talon]

No I'm just suprised you picked a tag fighter

as the first fighting game you played

[dusk patrol]

And I’m not gonna hitmarker

[rose thorn]

it doenst have to be unless you choose so

[arctic talon]

having played skullgirls that game is fucked up

[rose thorn]

also i started with the vtuber fighting game

[arctic talon]

lol

Guilty gear lore is pretty simple in the grand scheme of things

[rose thorn]

yeah but these fuckers do not help explaining like 'dont bother learning that'

[storm jungle]

WHA-

[dusk patrol]

Based

[storm jungle]

also

speaking of undead

[arctic talon]

Also the gears declare war against all of humanity

[storm jungle]

"Man 40k lore is so deep and complex!"

Cod nazi zombies appears:

[arctic talon]

any specific character you want to learn about

Oh also there's a germanic crusader who is straight up immortal

[rose thorn]

ELPHET MY BELVOED i lvoe her so much

shes so me

[arctic talon]

but he doesn't really matter

[dusk patrol]

That shits just Kingdom hearts for people who don’t own body pillows

[storm jungle]

BRUH

also hold on i gotta google

[arctic talon]

She's a clone of Aria(Sol's Wife), created by the Universal Will(god but evil), and was designed to infiltrate human society. She ended up breaking free of that and deciding she liked humans. She then helps humanity stop her sister Ramlethal from wiping out humanity and empowering the Universal Will

[outer wave]

Tbf thats not so much deep its just convoluted at a certain point

[dusk patrol]

Kingdom Hearts lore is actually stupid as fuck

[arctic talon]

Elphelt is technically like 2 years old lol

[outer wave]

LMAO

[dusk patrol]

I’ve tried just for the novelty

[storm jungle]

BRO ITS REAL

[dusk patrol]

I can’t say I’m shocked

[arctic talon]

but most Gears/Gear derrived creatures are incredibly young years wise

because they're a literal biological weapon designed for war lol

[dusk patrol]

I like my gears like I like my factory workers

Young and easy to manipulate and not pay

[arctic talon]

💀

[rose thorn]

based

[arctic talon]

Also she likes guns

and roses

(and the concept of love)

[storm jungle]

I like my gears how I like my wars

[storm jungle]

LMAO

SHUT UP

[arctic talon]

LOL

this is my favorite 5 year old in guilty gear

[rose thorn]

EHEAHHAHAHA

[coarse pumice]

I remember calling that Justice was Sol’s gf before

[outer wave]

Yes she was

[arctic talon]

Justice is Aria

[outer wave]

Before all the weird Gear mumbo jumbo anyway

[coarse pumice]

I mean before it was revealed

[arctic talon]

oh

Well it seems obvious with her last words in Missing Link

when you well kill her as Sol

[coarse pumice]

In Xrd they changed her to be huge

[arctic talon]

oh also Jesus has a revolver and is Irish in guilty gear

[arctic talon]

its a clone of her

🤓

its why she looks so much smoother as well and less jagged

[coarse pumice]

Like instead of being 8 feet tall, more like 800 feet tall

[arctic talon]

yeah

iirc the goal was to use Elphelt to lure out Arias actual soul or something

and shove it into the clone

[coarse pumice]

I haven’t caught up with it

Is happy chaos the original universal will program?

The one that possessed the pope

[arctic talon]

Happy Chaos is The Original

but not the universal will

so he's Magic Irish Jesus

with a gun

[coarse pumice]

The original game still feels the coolest for me

[arctic talon]

tbf its the origin

its also janky as shit

[coarse pumice]

It was just the raw creative energy of it

[arctic talon]

Missing Link is really cool though

[coarse pumice]

The gameplay was completely stupid

[arctic talon]

Its my favorite terrible game

[coarse pumice]

Like you could infinitely juggle people with dragon punches

And the instant death mechanic

It has my favourite music of the series

The raw energy with that thrashy sound

[arctic talon]

I still like Xrd the most

gameplay wise

[dusk patrol]

These words

[arctic talon]

Sound like you're having a stroke

yes I know

[dusk patrol]

I understand them all

[coarse pumice]

In Xrd, I remember the backgrounds were changed from Xrd Sign to Revelatory

[dusk patrol]

But in that order

Xrd

[coarse pumice]

And I prefer the Xrd sign ones, like the magic school in Scotland

[arctic talon]

edinburgh is a great map

my favorite map in Xrd though is Japan

because it looks fucking sick

[rose thorn]

Should I make my csm or tzeentch space wolves?

What would piss them off more

[arctic talon]

both are cool

imo

like just normal CSM

or tzeentch space wolves

[coarse pumice]

I picked up ram in Xrd

[rose thorn]

I was thinking of putting the dog heads and new space wolf heads on my 1k son models I bought back when they were good in csm

And never built

[arctic talon]

also we finally figured out wtf Skyrar's dark wolves are

lol

they were blackshield Luna wolves and space wolves

[rose thorn]

Skyrar is not a YouTuber?

[arctic talon]

no

[rose thorn]

Nice

[arctic talon]

maybe?

idk

they're a forgeworld warband

[rose thorn]

It is a very 2014 youtueb name

[rose thorn]

Based….

[rose thorn]

That petty cool

I like the traitor iron hands lore is that they just prefer horus

[arctic talon]

Anyways pretty interesting to see that they were led by someone part of the Sons of Horus in 30k

[rose thorn]

In HH

[arctic talon]

but by 40k the guy leading them is a space wolf sounding name

[lunar harness]

i stole it for my personal archives

[storm jungle]

[lunar harness]

its so good 😂

5'9" black templars versus the chad 5'10" custodes

[storm jungle]

also only cost me 30 bucks, worth it

[dusk patrol]

I pay my artists in exposure

Either they draw it for me, or I leave them outside in the snow to die of exposure

[storm jungle]

Man i wish it was that easy...

[queen laurel]

I asked the Infinity gauntlet if it can count every Commission you did

It proceeded to burn a portion of the Galaxy while also removing my hands

[storm jungle]

[crystal forum]

at least i get something out of my commissions

[outer wave]

HAHAHAHAHA

[queen laurel]

Who gonna tell him?

Because that is absolutely ******* hilarious

[snow fern]

People actually so upset that their genetically modified super soldiers can be girls

[outer wave]

"Erm I PLAY your FREAKING tabletop game and am a FAN of Custodes, where is your proof?"

[queen laurel]

i don't know the official twitter itself saying it's real?

My God people need to think man

[outer wave]

Its so dumb

[snow fern]

Maybe it’s cause of my intro to sci fi super soldiers being Metroid and Halo, but like, what’s with the outrage lol

I wish people had real problems to deal with

[queen laurel]

yeah genetically modified female super soldiers ain't real

Said no one ever

this has been like This has been like a trope

for god knows how long

it really only takes like 2 seconds of thinking bare minimum to understand it

[snow fern]

Damn when is Metroid Prime 4 gonna release already?

[green loom]

Sexism

You'll see some arguments

But it's all just dressed up sexism

[unreal knot]

I mean wasn't this rumored for years?

That like female custodies are a thing

[arctic talon]

It was something that was always possible but never explictly stated

[unreal knot]

And just now it is confirmed

[outer wave]

Exactly

[tulip brook]

Opening the gates for boob armor custodes kitbashes and thousands more of fanarts

[shadow plover]

literally no need to change the armour whatsoever, just give alternate bare heads

[orchid lark]

Half of these chuds were okay with Halo

These people are just

Tiresome

[green loom]

Kill them

With hammers

Hammers of war

Warhammers

For killing

[queen laurel]

they're like barnacles, no matter how much you remove them sooner or later they are going to return

[crisp heath]

My hot take for the day is that monoboob armor is perfectly fine

[potent swift]

So I actually found a post of the full short story featuring Custode Kesh and man, no one told me Custodes could be this batty.

||Calladayce is participating in the Blood Games and has commandeered a ship from Battlefleet Solar. Her plan is to teleport a fully functioning Cyclonic Warhead directly into the Emperor's Throne Room. She has the codes to bypass a lot of the Throne's defenses but maybe not all of them. There is a chance her plan might fail. It might also succeed. The crew is aware of this and are not happy about it but they don't want to disobey a Custode either. Fortunately a strike team teleports onto the bridge and disables the warhead. The Shield-Captain is like "What the fuck Kesh?" before explaining that the Vox Officer sent a coded distress call. He then asks Kesh what to do with crew. Her decision? For the Shipmaster: Since he likes mindlessly following orders, servitor conversion. For the ship's crew: Excoriation, then reduction to punitive status and sent back to the fleet as examples. For the Vox Officer: Congratulations on her promotion to Shipmistress. I'll note that the entire bridge can hear them too. ||

[arctic talon]

this seems in line lmfao

considering the custodes incident with them servitorizing an entire Imperial space traffic control crew on Terra

because they heard a code that is so secretive no one outside of the imperial household is allowed to hear it

[arctic talon]

also why does the ||vox officer not have anything horrific done to them lmao||

[queen laurel]

this is the same guys that will send one of their finest to protect a random grandma from some desert planet that basically only does Knitting for fun

if they deem that grandma important for something

[potent swift]

Because ||she's the only one that did the right thing and ratted out Kesh to the feds instead of just following orders||

[arctic talon]

That makes a ton of sense tbh

[storm jungle]

Remember kids always sell out your co-workers

[lunar harness]

I do think like 3% of the people upset about femstodes are not sexist, just really really nerdy.

[storm jungle]

They are very much just sexist

theres no reason to be upset at all about this lol

[lunar harness]

It is true there is nothing stating custodes can't be female, in fact it actually makes a TON of sense lore wise (custodes were old terran nobles children made into budget* perpetuals to kip a lid on them)

but they have factually been depicted as all male for like 30 years

[storm jungle]

Made into Perpetuals?

[lunar harness]

not explicit but implicit

[storm jungle]

Uh

I dont think thats ever been the case

[lunar harness]

sorry meant to say like, budget perpetuals

because the emperor pissed off all the other immortals xD

though that is "newer" lore

JOHN GRAMMTICUS, EVERYONE'S FAVORITE

[celest dome]

Custodes still age and even retire

[lunar harness]

oh I didn't know that. so none of the custodes are the same as from HH?

[storm jungle]

Some are

some arent

[lunar harness]

Yea, I know they make new ones

but I thought they were immortal

[potent swift]

I think the funniest thing to me is how some people act like the lore is ironclad and completely unchangeable

[storm jungle]

YEP

even tho it gets retconned all the time

[lunar harness]

yea that's true lol

[potent swift]

Clearly they've never heard of Necrons or Squats

[lunar harness]

aren't squats still canon?

[storm jungle]

Kinda

they were eradicated from lore

[potent swift]

They're called the Leagues of Votann now

[lunar harness]

but they still make squat models

[storm jungle]

No?

the squats were all wiped out by nids

because their range was disliked

[celest dome]

Their core world were

[lunar harness]

i thought they made some necromunda squat models

[storm jungle]

That was like

YEARS later

the official lore was they all died

[celest dome]

Ironhead Squats yes, but they're only a couple of years back

[storm jungle]

Not that

Grendylson, the boutny hunter

[lunar harness]

Ah, I see

i thought some survived in the imperium and their actual lore "got squatted"

but they made some squat plastic stuff for necromunda in the last decade

[storm jungle]

they more or less had their core-worlds destroyed by Nids then GW acted like they never existed, down to just never including them in anything again

also it was only one mini

it was a general case of the studio not liking their old range and not knowing what to do with them

[lunar harness]

iirc they were an epic only faction

[storm jungle]

That box is very recent

[lunar harness]

i like votann more than what I know about the squatts

[storm jungle]

Its basically the same

they just have the AI votann cores now

they were called Leagues back then too

[lunar harness]

the AI stuff is really cool

[storm jungle]

they are basically only there for a bit of originality

since the older ones were literally just dwarves in space

[queen laurel]

but since they are dwarfs they are good at hiding and turns out they had their own planets in the middle of the *** **** milky way

[lunar harness]

i think it adds some despiration and grimderp to the votann, as well as having some interesting lore implications

[queen laurel]

i don't know how but they are good at hiding

[lunar harness]

its actually a really clever way of making them high tech but low tech as 40k does

plus fallout robots in 40k 🙂

[pine wedge]

Female Custodes, you know what that means: 9ft tall muscle mommies 👀😩🥵 Move over lady dimitrescu

[storm jungle]

NOOOOOO

[pine wedge]

BRING OUT THE FAN ART

[green loom]

Boy I sure do love the "it's established lore!!!!" Crowd

Why yes I do want to cave their heads in

[lunar harness]

another added to dilaras block list. rest in peace.

Latest one I saw about the Fallout show was "One of the Ghouls survives getting shot in the neck, they clearly don't respect the canon"

Looks at the game where a ghoul can survive getting shot 12 times in the face by a 10mm pistol

[queen laurel]

apparently in a universe where you can wear armor that allows you to carry tank mounted weaponry and where green mutants roam around that are just as strong as said armor being shoot and surviving in the neck is out of the question

My brother in Christ your character can literally be strong enough to rival someone in power armor

[lunar harness]

is the new fallout show worth watching? Honestly rings of power was bad but it wasn't 1/10 like people were saying. if its better than rings of power I would probably enjoy it 🙂

[rocky gale]

Definitely better

[queen laurel]

It's pretty much a pretty faithful adaptation and it has its own story so it doesn't interfere with the lore

[lunar harness]

nice ty I'll check it out

[rocky gale]

It's set after all the games and despite what people are saying online it doesn't retcon anything

[queen laurel]

What place is it taking place again

[rocky gale]

West Coast

Around LA

[queen laurel]

Explains the larger buildings

[rocky gale]

And if it seems like it is retconning anything, just keep watching and it explains everything

[lunar harness]

so the heart of the NCR?

new Vegas sequel?

[rocky gale]

It references New Vegas a lot

[chilly palm]

erm will actually

nah i got nothing

tbh its MORE likely that they would survive

if theres enough radiation about gouls can ligitmentally heal from it

[queen laurel]

It's not that outrageous your character can literally carry mini guns and literal ship cannons

[chilly palm]

EXACLTY

[queen laurel]

And if given the amount of drugs could match someone in power armor

People crying about canon is always the one that don't know about it

[chilly palm]

also didn't the NV MC survive a shot to the head lol

[rocky gale]

Yep

[queen laurel]

yeah

[chilly palm]

exactly

lol

[lunar harness]

i played vanilla fallout 4 on the hardest difficulty and I found this legendary glowing ghoul boss that I shot like.... 2000 times and it still wouldn't die. I killed it by getting it stuck in a door and beating it to death with a pipe over 40 minutes

[chilly palm]

thats some good fallout

[lunar harness]

that games difficulty was really badly balanced lol

[chilly palm]

If I had fallout NV and fallout 4s gunplay.

nut

[rocky gale]

It's still nothing on Max difficutly Oblivion, it basically just gives every enemy a million hit points

[lunar harness]

I'm surprised there isn't a mod team remaking NV in fallout 4s engine

[chilly palm]

or honestly 4s gunplay on any of the other fallouts (apart from the obvious)

[lunar harness]

has anyone seen skyblivion?

[chilly palm]

lets hope skyblivion

eyy

[lunar harness]

lmao

[chilly palm]

stopped my commment

for that

[chilly palm]

https://tenor.com/NZ2k.gif

[lunar harness]

Yea, it looks good they have the map 99% done!!

they are remaking every texture by hand so its not copyright infringing lol

[rocky gale]

I can't wait for Skyblivion, but I wonder if they're going to do anything to make Skyrims magic casting more like Oblivion

[chilly palm]

I wish I was talented enough to join that teams 3D modelers

[lunar harness]

they are, they are going back to the xp system of oblivion iirc

[chilly palm]

https://tenor.com/JPaI.gif

[rocky gale]

Because Oblivion Magic > Skyrim magic

[lunar harness]

skyrim has some good magic mods

[chilly palm]

skyrims got good mmods for everything haha

[queen laurel]

removing unarmed was a crime

[chilly palm]

heard community shaders is popping off right now tho...

[rocky gale]

Skyrim kinda made it impossible to seamlessly do crusader builds

[chilly palm]

ENB's tyranny will end soon

[queen laurel]

i want to deck a dragon

[chilly palm]

(cope)

[lunar harness]

there's a lightweight one i can't live without that makes it so buff spells are permanent but reserve a % of your mana which is a way more fun mechanic

[queen laurel]

Even if they had the leveling system for the punching or something I would have been fine but they literally made it not even existent in Skyrim

[chilly palm]

nah bro the real crime?

acrobatics

i wanted to jump good

[lunar harness]

unarmed is in skyrim, just need to find the one pair of gloves in the entire game that supports it lmaooo

[rocky gale]

That was step 1 of every Oblivion playthrough, powerlevel Acrobatics, sneak and athleics by runing, jumping and sneaking around

[chilly palm]

then find the glass armour wearing bandit who nukes you cause levelings insane

[rocky gale]

The old tie a hair band around the controller sticks and leave your character running in a circle all night trick

[lunar harness]

lol 😆

my favorite rpg as a teen was dragon age origins

i played it like hundreds of hours

i beat it so many times lol

morigan is just so cool

[chilly palm]

mine was ah...

skyrim

don't hurt me.

[lunar harness]

xD

[chilly palm]

Its all I knew bro

[lunar harness]

when skyrim was coming out I was like OVERHYPED

its gonna be bad

LAME

then i torrented it

played it for 300 hours

[rocky gale]

My brother bought me DA Origins when it came out but I was too young to appreciate it, got bored and went back to playing CoD, but then a year or two later I went back to it and became obsessed

[lunar harness]

and guilty bought it

[rocky gale]

I completed it like 12 times in a week, I had to start deleting saves because the Xbox version had a limit on how many characters you could have

[chilly palm]

I dunno why i wanted to play skyrim but when i got it I was scared of the draugur and couldn't play the gamme

but then I watched a youtuber of tobuscus (old early youtuber) who made fun of their glowing eyes

and then i could play

sorry you unlocked a childhood memory

Im not too sure what I want from TES6...i do hope they make it mmore complicated like morrowind and make the AI smarter

[rocky gale]

I had a similar thing with Zombies, I was absolutely terrified of anything zombies. I couldn't watch or play anything that had zombies without having panic attacks, but then I played CoD zombies in Black Ops and I was absolutely terrified at first but then I started knifing them and was like "These guys are just lame nerds" All fear gone.

[chilly palm]

I had to have my brother in the room close by or i couldn't play a scooby doo game on the ps3 because the zombies scared me

So i feel u

man i was a massive wuss lmaoo

[pine wedge]

Talk about a fall from grace btw

[chilly palm]

Don't remmind me bro...

https://tenor.com/bWDdI.gif

I still swing my di-dimond s-sw-

😭😭

[lunar harness]

ur gonna get a starfield level minimum effort 'you tried' redfall expansion sorry

[storm jungle]

Bro draugr were fucking scary 😭

HATE UNDEAD SWEDISH PEOPLE

[lunar harness]

my dad loved horror movies so i was majorly desensitized

[chilly palm]

yhey WERE!

The restless draugur with the ice spell in beakfalls

[lunar harness]

actually dragon age has a scene that really really repulsed and scared me

[chilly palm]

hurt me on an emotional level

[orchid lark]

Not even undead, its just how they look

[lunar harness]

the dwarven women who was made into a darkspawn breeder

😬

[chilly palm]

for me it was the sounds

the GRAHH

[orchid lark]

Skyrim didnt scare me, fallout 3 was scary

[lunar harness]

i always thought they were just silly little guys

[queen laurel]

Alright I'm adding that to words taken out of context compilation

[orchid lark]

Didnt like creeping in the dc metro with ghouls

[lunar harness]

xD

[orchid lark]

And its dark as shit

[rocky gale]

The Broodmother was not nice, especially all the notes you found around the place in that level

[lunar harness]

yes it was truly horrific

the deep roads is a really crazy environment.

dragon age was such an ambitious game

[chilly palm]

yeah man the goind under ground and the nightkin?

scared me

[lunar harness]

its better than it should be for tolkien clone number 16688383

this thing absolutely freaked me out along with the notes about it

[thorn zenith]

Ew

[rocky gale]

It's always funny to me that for all of it's grand lore, the world is called Thedas because it was the placeholder acronym for The Dragon Age Setting that was never replaced.

[lunar harness]

lmao really?

the dragon age setting

xD

[rocky gale]

Yea they called it Thedas as a temporary thing in development as a "We will come up with a name for it later" but they never did and just kept it

[lunar harness]

DA3 was really really mids for me, I still played the crap out of it

[storm jungle]

the mastermind redditor...

[rocky gale]

I loved Inquisition as much as Origin tbh, it was different but I really liked it.

And yea so many characters

[green loom]

Ahem

[green loom]

Ahem

https://youtu.be/JanHMbRjNJ8?si=sjKSmmN4B4iyTCt8

It's still in development

[rocky gale]

[green loom]

I'm told it's playable now?

https://youtu.be/6oFuQdhzNdg?si=1hiboZdglbLE3v2B

More recent vid

[lunar harness]

woah cool

[pine wedge]

fallout 4 added a fast jittery run animation to the feral ghouls

first time I saw that shit I just about shit my pants

humanoids suddenly moving at you way too fast, gotta be one of my favorite genders horror tropes

[chilly palm]

https://tenor.com/bWxW1.gif

[chilly palm]

ive met people who actually dislike the redesign of ghouls i can't understand that. As far as im concered ghouls were a straight upgrade

you cut off their legs? they still go for you

[orchid lark]

Yeah

[pine wedge]

LMAO

[queen laurel]

Every time I hear it i become feral

[orchid lark]

Mirelurks being bulletproof

[chilly palm]

I understand people didn't like how they just became "zombies" but I honestly think they were more than that

[orchid lark]

Fallout 4 did more than it should but it still was a bethesda game marred by a shitty engine

[pine wedge]

they were gnarly yeah

[queen laurel]

It definitely gave us the best feeling power armor

[green loom]

The companions were top tier

[orchid lark]

T51 for life

[chilly palm]

I also preferred the redesign of deathclaws but ah

theres more contention on that one

[orchid lark]

The variety of how they looked tooo

[chilly palm]

It was more their animations than anything else

[orchid lark]

Its so cool

[green loom]

I mean

[chilly palm]

https://tenor.com/yqPj.gif

[green loom]

Honestly

The stuff in fallout 4 is just the stuff in fallout 3 but done more competently

[orchid lark]

You either really liked Cait or Curie

[chilly palm]

CURIE

CURIE ALL THE WAY

"teasing poor little curie"

[orchid lark]

NO

[green loom]

I meant inquisition

[chilly palm]

FUCK YOU

[pine wedge]

same. it's a really stupid setpiece to be doing that early into the game, but I can't deny that facing off against the deathclaw climbing out of the sewers in conchord while rocking my rusty power armor and minigun had me grinning I did it the first time.

[orchid lark]

Cait is better

[green loom]

I don't think there's a companion I don't adore in Inquisition

[queen laurel]

i'm more of a X-01 guy

[chilly palm]

sheep

(jk i like it the mmost as well)

[pine wedge]

that goes for a lot of things in fallout 4 though. "man this is cool" the first time and then "but this is actually pretty stupid..." on subsequent playthroughs when the novelty has worn off

[queen laurel]

i cast don't care

[orchid lark]

Its an easy contender for number 1 spot for me, but the T 51 just looks so good

[chilly palm]

(Im one of you broooo)

[pine wedge]

(the entirety of the institute falls under this category)

[orchid lark]

The institute shouldve been morr

[chilly palm]

I ran with da institue

[queen laurel]

And to be honest most of the time this is the one I wish was the better in terms of stats because this is my favorite

[chilly palm]

goes hard yeah

[queen laurel]

The overboss power armor

[green loom]

Pour one out for the Minutemen being a cool concept reduced to a literal shell faction

[chilly palm]

Nuka world man..

Nuka world

[queen laurel]

kill on site

[chilly palm]

had to make a whole ass evil character to play that

[rocky gale]

Inquisition companions are great, I'll never forget the heartbreak on my first character when I learnt that Cassandra was straight

[chilly palm]

I had like 3 deathclaws in every settlment im not fighting my own shit

[orchid lark]

I like the Mech DlC the most

I love building robots for every settlement

[green loom]

Gay 🫵

[chilly palm]

the gays got the elf girl

but yeah

cassandra is so much better

yoo yeah i fucked with the robot building

I turned Curie into some obscene shit

[orchid lark]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-gif-26460616

[green loom]

I'm fortunate that I really like every romance except Blackwall and Sera

[chilly palm]

nuke throwing robot with french accent

was tight

[orchid lark]

She could do that too huh

https://tenor.com/view/chuchu-derpixon-gif-7955374473579134001

[rocky gale]

Although her telling you she's straight after you've already flirted with her for 10 hours is the realistic Sapphic Experience

[chilly palm]

https://tenor.com/bctnA.gif

[orchid lark]

Do yall appreciate the game if its player sexual (based on player characters gender) or if they have their own orientation and sticking to it like cyberpunk 2077

[crisp heath]

Playersexual is the way to go because it's my power fantasy and I demand my honeys

[pine wedge]

I think both are equally meritous, just depends on what the dev wants to tell

[orchid lark]

So far im in agreement

[rocky gale]

I suppose it depends like certain situations like when being a certain sexuality is important to their character, like Dorian in Inquisition. Being a gay man is a core part of who he is and his backstory, but generally I do enjoy when a game has playersexual when there's no reason for it not to be.

[orchid lark]

Ye

[crisp heath]

I sit upon my golden throne in the office of an underpaid developer. My chin drips with grease from this massive haunch I am devouring. My voice rings out, loud and majestic.

"Minstrel, spin me tale where the pretty girl likes me."

[chilly palm]

playersexual because i felt bad for the gays who couldn't have tali from mmass effect

[rocky gale]

I was about to mention Tali

The damn game makes me be a man just so I can cuddle with my wife

[pine wedge]

BG3 has a more sandbox-y design philosophy to it, both in gameplay design and characterization (not only are the companions playersexual, you can play as the companions yourself and make them do whatever you want). cyberpunk 2077 is more focused, with both V and the companions being more established characters and with less player/narrative freedom. both are good, just different.

[green loom]

Normalize tactical pansexuality

[orchid lark]

I think, we all agree on the meat of the story and setting has to affect it.

I can fugg with that

[chilly palm]

ye

[chilly palm]

ngl i could sense you were gonna mention here

thats why i said it

I KNOW WHAT YOU AREEEEE/ssssssssssss

[crisp heath]

My honest take is unless the characters sexual orientation is significant to their story then there is 0 reason not make them bisexual; and even if it is, that should knock them down a peg in terms of "should we make this character romanceable"

[orchid lark]

I think there has to be predominantly bisexual/pansexual (im a believer of the original definition of bisexual before transphobes fucked it up)
And characters who are gay or straight by design and choice

[crisp heath]

You can still have plotlines dedicated to a character without dating them

[orchid lark]

I feel, we are in a point in society where we are okay with a mix of it all

[green loom]

No Argenta romance
Why live

[thorn zenith]

Argenta is just a bro

[crisp heath]

Also I mostly play rimworld these days, and before that I was super into dwarf fortress. I can say, even in games where there isn't a personal narrative, bisexuality as the default is just generally better

[thorn zenith]

Next to daddy Abelard

[orchid lark]

I think there has to be one horribly token straight character tho

Wasnt uh, Solas that

[pine wedge]

I can't really think of a reason for Panam to not be into girls other than "she's just straight" but for Judy her lesbianism was already established somewhat with Evelyn.

Actually I don't think there really needs to be a big reason for a character to be straight. Devs can just decide that they are, just like how real people are gay or straight for no real reason (just born that way).

[rocky gale]

Solas was straight and only romanced Elves

[crisp heath]

I would 100% never date Argenta. Cassia is bi coded and I shame the developers for not seeing that.

[orchid lark]

Hes my favourite Falmer

[green loom]

Racist(but actually since he is)

[thorn zenith]

Cassia is just 100% pure cinnamon roll

[crisp heath]

You can buy her pet birds which she immediately kills

[green loom]

But pretty woman with white hair

[chilly palm]

argentat lool

[queen laurel]

i guess replacing someones vocal cords because they annoy you is cinnamon roll ish

[green loom]

Also we needed more chaos companions

[orchid lark]

EDE shouldve be romanceable

[crisp heath]

Yall are going to hate me for saying this but Heinrix is the cinnamon roll of Rogue Trader

[thorn zenith]

I mean in her defense that was literally how she (and general imperium nobles) live

[green loom]

Nah I've played his romance

You right

[thorn zenith]

That...is actually true. I played femtrader and dude was somehow more cinnamon than Cassia

[crisp heath]

Heinrix only hurts people accidentally or because he thinks they'll do something worse if he doesn't, then he feels bad about it

He's a sweetheart

[queen laurel]

i agree because for an interrogator and an up and coming inquisitor he is very honest and very straightforward and seems to know the dangers of the Galaxy

shame he works with the other guyShame he works with the other guy

[thorn zenith]

Shame i let him go and he became a crazy lord inquisitor in my first run

[crisp heath]

Oh no I hate the guy

[thorn zenith]

Megadouchebag 9001 Calcazar

[crisp heath]

He's weak and proves the inquisition is frail and only worthy to lick my boot

[queen laurel]

Bro he was about to release

[crisp heath]

But still, he's a sweetheart

[queen laurel]

a fucking C'TAN

WHAT THE FUCK WAS HE THINKING

[thorn zenith]

Him and Theodora were doing some real crazy shit

[lunar harness]

i hated Sera cause she was mean to all my favorite party members

[thorn zenith]

I was like "Nomos, deactivate his ass"

[queen laurel]

i went I'm going to kill you with my bare hands

[thorn zenith]

Well he was gonna enslave a C'tan but dude was obviously not equipped to deal with it

[lunar harness]

there's actually a minor controversy around that

[thorn zenith]

All his goons got cutscene'd

[lunar harness]

the game dev only made women in rimworld bisexual... "just like real life"....

💀

[crisp heath]

I know all about Tynan going Kinsey on rimworld

Thats not the worst part of it

[lunar harness]

its kind of funny if it wasn't cringe lol

[thorn zenith]

Bruh i wanna start a run where all the boys are strength melee

No girls allowed only macho men

[crisp heath]

Statistically in the beta, the most likely match was a 16 year old girl and a 40 year old man because women were hard-coded to be attracted to significantly older partners and men to significantly younger partners

And dating in rimworld starts at 16

[celest dome]

Dwarf Fortress at least has all 3 base orientation, not sure if it has Transgender and that sort of thing

[crisp heath]

That's changed now but you know

The tribals are still coded to be more likely to black and spacers more likely to be white

[lunar harness]

based heinrix romancer???

[crisp heath]

It's a good game but like, Tynan is eesh

[thorn zenith]

Heinrix is good but Jae romance is goated, 1 of 2 not ending on a sad note

[crisp heath]

It doesn't have that unless you count being gelded by a thrown rock

OK actual game design hot take

Kinsey scale sucks in real life but it's great for randomly assigning orientations in games

Just roll a d8 and that's the characters orientation

[lunar harness]

my first play through i kicked jae off the ship very early on because her problems are just so below the scale of what I'm dealing with

i liked her personality though

i killed the rogue psyker for the safety of the ship

[crisp heath]

I would feed Jae to a snake given the opportunity

[orchid lark]

We should do all our character designs and rolls based on the evil that was once FATAL

[chilly palm]

can someone explain the jae hate tho

i mean I never used her

[lunar harness]

i gave the dark elf to the inquisition

[thorn zenith]

Jae route is probably closest to being pirate, the hijinx were damn funny

[lunar harness]

and i asked yrliet to GTFO AND NEVER COME BACK

[chilly palm]

His voice actor was too good for me to do that lool

[crisp heath]

She annoying, frivolous and unproductive.

[thorn zenith]

Lmao i gave him to inquisition because one does not fuck with my realm and get away scott free especially after being so smug about it

[chilly palm]

I wish i kept yirlet. I accidently said this is were we part ways at the end of the planets mission

I LIKED HERRRR

[crisp heath]

Jae has no place on my ship and the witch is a chew toy for Argenta

[chilly palm]

i wish we coulkd have a ogryn companion

[thorn zenith]

I just let her go at the end, and she got offscreen'd by Pasqal

[chilly palm]

oh

shi i gotta leave this caht

spoils

[lunar harness]

my problem with her is just its so underwhelming to help her save her goons when I just watched an entire planets population get consumed by demons

the scale makes me not care about her at all

if do another playthrough just to talk to her because i like her writing a lot

[thorn zenith]

You gotta admit tho the administratum quest was funny af

[lunar harness]

yea I liked it hahaha

[crisp heath]

Yrliet is my queen, Jae can sleep in the airlock

[thorn zenith]

Arguably the only low scale hijinx route in the game, and i actually like it

[lunar harness]

i coped and pretended that if I set her up in the region Id have good contacts with the underworld, a useful tool for a rogue trader.

unfortunately that was just head canon and you get nothing for setting her up

[chilly palm]

i didn't uinderstand why there was a jealousy scene with yirlet

[thorn zenith]

A comic relief intermission from the big stuff thats going on

[lunar harness]

yrliet is SO IMMATURE it makes me hate her

[thorn zenith]

True, there was 0 romance

[lunar harness]

i think she's well written but good damn

[crisp heath]

People who don't find Yrliets route to be romantic and frankly horny af just have narrow horizons

[chilly palm]

I like to think that since eldar are such emotional creatures they can just seem immature to us

just due to how intense they feel

[crisp heath]

Genuinely so wild to me that people read it as a "besties" route

[chilly palm]

it was a different kind of romance

but still romance

[thorn zenith]

Yeah i meant romance as in classical romance

Like Cassia

[crisp heath]

Yrliets route is the same kind of romance as whatever Madoka Magica is

[pine wedge]

why are you still here

[chilly palm]

I have no self control

[thorn zenith]

Ive never watched it

[crisp heath]

The tl;dr is that a mentally ill and codependent girl time travels to turn her crush into God and then regrets it so she becomes the devil to rip God from heaven and then regrets that

Similar vibes

[thorn zenith]

What

[crisp heath]

It's based off Faust

[chilly palm]

https://tenor.com/GfHi.gif

well I thought it was FUNNYT

[thorn zenith]

Any of yall blew up Kiava Gamma tho? I wonder what Calcussy says about it

Or destroyed it, memory is not good and i cant remember the option

[coarse pumice]

Which one is that?

The forge world?

[lunar harness]

no way lmao

also not a bad synopsis of madoka

SAYAKA DID NOTHING WRONG

[crisp heath]

Sayaka is the only person who did anything wrong

[white urchin]

You can't exterminate Kiava Gamma by bombardment, as you're given the three flavor choices of dealing with the planet's Heretek situation, purging the corruption from the planet (Dogmatic), restore the planet with the least bloodshed (Iconoclast) or restoring the planet with Tek-heresy (Heretical).

Heinrix doesn't have much comments about the planet in the aftermath, as it only affect disposition to certain Noble House and first meeting with the Lord Inquisitor.

[thorn zenith]

yeah im curious about that one

[radiant lance]

DOMMY MOMMY

MUSCLE MOMMY

[pine wedge]

Give me my Custodes novel featuring a muscle mommy main character NOW

[rocky gale]

Our first look at the new Stormcast Chamber

[green loom]

Oh I love those

[rocky gale]

They're the Reclusians

The little dudes that follow them around are their own descendants who help to remind them of their humanity

[celest dome]

Damn, that's grim but at the same time noble

[grave sparrow]

reminds me of dark angels and the whisperers in the dark or whatever they are

[celest dome]

Another moral win from the Stormcast over the SM

[celest dome]

Watcher in the Dark

[grave sparrow]

My brain is extra smooth today, thank you lol

but those models look awesome

[celest dome]

AoS rarely disappoint, mini wise

[pine wedge]

is that their equivalent of a space marine chapter?

[rocky gale]

No

[celest dome]

Chambers ?

[pine wedge]

yes

(idk anything about AoS)

A Stormhost is the equivilent of a Chapter, the Chambers are like the different branches

Like how the Dark Angels have Deathwing, Ravenwing, Darkwing etc

[pine wedge]

ah ok neat

[celest dome]

Tbh I would have compared Stormhost to Legion rather than Chapters

[rocky gale]

Stormcast don't really have the same distinction between Chapter and Legion that Space Marines do though

and the Stormhosts are all founded over numerous Strikings like the Chapters

But it doesn't really matter

[celest dome]

True

A chamber is like

It's more like one of the Hexagrammaton wings for the DA during the heresy

[rocky gale]

Too slow old man

[pine wedge]

so it's the same thing as a chapter

[rocky gale]

You're the same thing as a chapter

[green loom]

Why'd you name a character from Invincible 🤨

[rocky gale]

Is one of them not called the Darkwing

Ahhh Dreadwing

[azure knoll]

can't help but notice the negative outcry about female custodes from some parts of the internet. is there any lore basis that would disagree with the new statement about them?

[rocky gale]

Not really

The only thing they are using to say "It's against the lore" is a quote from I think the 8th edition Codex which mentions them training "Sons" to be Custodes

[azure knoll]

where that's used in the same spirit as when somebody says "mankind" or "the age of man" when they mean humanity

[queen laurel]

it's just people that can't fathom the idea that a girl super soldier is cool

With the fact that it's literally now stated in the codex they are apparently just wanting to burn it for some reason

[azure knoll]

i had this idea about how it was only really a matter of time for some imperial subfaction to get expanded by women

[rocky gale]

Yea, I've also seen a lot of people say "It would make sense if they weren't in a combat role" it's literally just sexism.

[azure knoll]

since you have SM who are solely male (which is stupid if you ask me but hey) and adepta sororitas who are solely female (on an imperial law technicality)

[queen laurel]

yep, they act like female super soldiers weren't a thing before even though Halo and literally the protagonist of Metroid is a thing

[azure knoll]

"oh but not in warhammer" doesn't age of sigmar have female stormcast eternals or what's their name?

[rocky gale]

Yep

[queen laurel]

yes

[azure knoll]

we just need male "brothers" of silence and we chillin

with only 2 factions being gender restricted

[queen laurel]

Unfortunately they are usually turned into assassins in the culexus temple

[azure knoll]

which only 1 really needs to be imo

only really semantics that are stopping men from becoming brothers of silence

[azure knoll]

adepta sororitas need to exist because i think it's funny that the ecclesiarchy can't employ any men at arms

[green loom]

One line in the last two codices saying "It is known that they are drawn from the sons of the nobilty "

But like

The 6th edition knight codex explained that knight pilots were only men

By next edition that was changed

[azure knoll]

i just had to double check you weren't @rocky gale because your names here are very similar
