#

typically if the follower is both ultradevoted and actually important enough to care about there's ways around it

#

also you obviously have to be REALLY REALLY devoted for that one excess to cause a conversion to slaanesh based on basically every cultist and imperial zealot we've ever seen

#

if someone at GW was forced to rationalize it they'd probably say that excess devotion to khorne or nurgle involves so much of doing their thing that it outweighs the excess element? and that tzeentch followers are all schemers

storm jungle
#

^

#

It still goes to Slaanesh to a certain degree but it would become almost microscopic.

#

the codexes acknowledge this and explain it generally through what Seythi has said above

winged jacinth
#

yeah if you're super duper into khorne you're probably doing a whole lot of killing

storm jungle
#

Yeah pretty much this

#

Slaanesh is parasitic but it depends on the person/their devotion etc

winged jacinth
#

i bet a lot of slaanesh cults grow out of "regular" cults

#

i guess i dont really have to guess that's what happens

storm jungle
#

Thats usually the case yeah, anything with "overdoing it to the point of excess" is what entails it.

#

Because excess can be just about anything

outer wave
#

Its funny how the excessiveness of each god ends up fueling another one in a weird self destructive cycle

storm jungle
#

Evil is always self-defeating

#

and in 40k everyone is so it helps lol

#

And that’s why the Imperial Guard are my favorite faction, outside of its real life military aspect. It’s the common men and women taking on the seven layer bullshit dip of Xenos and Chaos.

#

Saves me the trouble of “inclusiveness”. Both boys and girls embrace the suck

lunar harness
#

yea i read some short stories when I was getting into warhammer (im a big sci nerd) that showed men and women together in the guard and it really sold me on warhammer in general

#

maybe thats why it never bothered me that astartes are all guys, I feel like even in the oldest books ive read there are female characters that are as interesting as the male ones

#

horus heresy though is all about the boys xD

#

Question, is the vampire faction resisted to disease and illness if it comes from nurgle and his family?

#

I know this is a dumb question but it just came to me and I figured I’d ask in this chat.

outer wave
#

They're undead not immune to the effects of decomposition

queen laurel

#

Magic AIDS and all that still affects vampires to some extent

queen laurel
#

The immunity is canceled out

#

especially diseases designed specifically to make someone go insane

winged laurel
#

Interesting

arctic talon
queen laurel
#

Yeah unless it's like a very very magical disease they are practically immune to most of it

winged laurel
#

Nurgle can’t have that ! lol

outer wave
#

Well hes not of reality, thus his diseases are magical in nature and dont follow how traditional diseases work

Does the machine god have a presence in the warp in the same vain that the emperor or ynnead does?

lunar harness
#

I mean machine spirits do some wonky things so Ive always felt like they do

#

similar to the whole 40k setting as a whole were belief makes things real

#

plus they can get cursed by demons and become evil machine spirits

#

a little of column A "its just AI/programming that they dont understand" and column B "some machines actually do have machine spirits", especially things made using biological material and the like

#

Anyone else have the feeling that space marine 2 is going to be a disaster? The longer time goes on the more i feel that way. Something just feels off.

spring cairn
#

it's not unlikely

storm jungle
#

Theres 100% signs for it

#

but its not super certain

#

The main hunch I have is the 3 previews we got so far showing more or less "nothing."

#

Like the visuals are great, the combat looks cool, the sceneries are amazing but... thats basically it.

Anything aside from that is just Titus fighting against the same Gaunts/Warriors on repeat.

Who is sanguinius?

Always heard of him but only told it sad story

Hope we see ogryn's. It is un-bye-assed oponion.

#

Lets hope they take after Darktides version of ogryns.

river walrus
#

Agreed! Or... lore accurate ogryns yes?

#

We had handsomest ogryn faces!

#

Not lot of teeth in them

chilly palm
#

(also able to count to 5 without choking on their spit which is nice)

queen laurel
#

The ones in dark tide are very smart

#

And the dumbest one is a bone head

river walrus

Want to see bullgryn killing big bugd!

storm jungle

Yeah this is the best stance

expect nothing and be surprised

or the opposite

queen laurel

From what ive seen, at least that game has pretty fairly priced mtx so at least theres that. Unless they pull a fatshark.

storm jungle
#

Yeah uh

#

ill believe it when I see it lol

radiant lance
storm jungle
#

Darktide does a good job with ogryns

#

also bashing away the dumb presedence GW set about them

#

like all ogryns somehow being claustrophobic

#

like??? lol

#

or just all being "nice"

#

Bully is a great example

scenic bolt
#

Also not a good sign when the parent corpo owner sold off the SM2 studio at a large loss just months prior to SM2’s launch. And Embracer was hailing SM2 as going to be its largest hit ever during a last year quarterly call (prior to the release delay)

queen laurel
#

He is even capable of stressing good strategy and providing insightful insights on how the water cartel are massive annoying runts

scenic bolt
#

It’d be like MS selling Bethesda 120 days before Elder Scrolls 6’s launch

chilly palm
scenic bolt
#

Prerelease we had so many people taking the sparse lore bits or characterizations from DOW as locked in canon

#

Or worse, grimdank memes

#

Like someone I remember argued ogryns were a bad choice because they were too stupid to open doors or reload weapons

queen laurel
chilly palm
#

that level of stupid is just imposible to believe

#

they just could not function

queen laurel
#

There are orks that really can't get super complex Stuff but can stick up for themselves that they don't look like a dumb idiot

chilly palm
#

Yeah exactly

#

Ork intelligence lets you have the funny stuff and have room for..anything remotely interesting besides jokes

queen laurel
#

that's why dark tide is pretty good with ogryns

#

Even the dumbest one is pretty interesting

#

because even though his brain is being fried

#

Pretty much still capable of thinking for himself

scenic bolt
#

Their characterization is one of the highlights of the game

queen laurel

pretty funny how if the imperium was made of 80% ogryn it would probably be more efficient

Reminds me of that bit of lore in Necromunda of some hive hanger who had a higher success rate of creating psyker ogryns than the Imperium does creating Space Marines

radiant lance

It ogryns weren’t dumb as rocks they would be more adapted to live in the 40k universe than normal humans

That’s my hot take

storm jungle
crystal forum
#

the thing that pisses me off the most is all these rage videos showing images of gay and trans identity as if this has anything to do with a custodes having boobs

#

like no they're not adding gay sex to 40k calm down you fucking chud

outer wave
#

I think it comes from the fact that gays and trans typically come from the political left side, which is typically very progressive

storm jungle
#

E V I L

outer wave
#

So yeah it becomes very easy for someone to suddenly start blaming the left/LGBT+ because of something small as this

snow fern
#

They should go to a completely unpolitical series, like fallout! KEKW_ogryn

rocky gale
#

It also shows that these people don't interact with gay and trans people, because they are very much not all leftist

outer wave
#

Note this is coming from my own speculation of my own feelings when I used to be part of that kinda group, which tbh is a lil hard to describe

outer wave
rocky gale
#

Parts of the online trans community actually has a serious Nazi problem tbh

outer wave
#

How does that occur?

rocky gale
#

Lots of Nazbols as well

snow fern

Self hate plays a part, but there’s some studies on it.

queen laurel
green loom

Wrong on e

#

I mean the one where Hitler shoots Ronald Reagan

queen laurel
green loom
#

Yes

queen laurel
rocky gale
# outer wave How does that occur?

It's probably because a lot of trans people feel incredibly miserable at young ages which makes them likely to end up falling down the alt right pipeline and then when they realise that they're trans and come to terms with that most of them move away from the alt right and deconstruct that world view, while others don't and continue to build their identity around it.

outer wave
#

Hmm

rocky gale
#

It's not always Nazis though, it can be any sort of fringe extremist views, met a trans Orthodox Theocratic Tsarist once, that was wild.

That--what

Orthodox Theocratic Tsarist

green loom

rocky gale

Yea, Divine Right of King, but specifically that the Russian Tsar is gods chosen monarch of the world

outer wave
#

Except tsars dont exist anymore

#

Soo how does that fare now

rocky gale
#

They keep track of the bloodlines and argue over which descendent should be made the new Tsar

#

Who has the best claim, is the closest in the line of succession from the last Tsar, who is most deserving of the descendents etc etc

outer wave
#

But the whole family line was killed, no?

Galrauch is more of a LH material I'd say

snow fern

I think Emnric is literally a random lord name for Chaos Warriors

#

I realize I can't spell, it's Egrimm van Horstmann

#

It also depends I guess on what's left for Chaos' roster in general

#

I know people like their new units, but if the roster is done, give me those lords

I've lost complete interest since I've seen what the Dwarf are getting in ToD

I don't play too many rts, I just like my funny rats and silly schemer daemons

spring cairn
#

my interest peaked when i saw the dwarf units

modern tapir
#

So when the Imperium loses a world to Chaos, does the Dark Mechanicum just sort of follow them around and step in to start maintaining/corrupting all the leftover imperial guard equipment?

the altfurs iirc

they sorta do whatever takes their fancy, they're very unorganized like the rest of chaos.
They do like stealing Forge Worlds though

It’s really shown in RT where pasqual is like “fuck idk, what do you think?”

lunar harness
#

yea xD

#

I feel like something that gets lost really hard in translation in the 40k setting is that

#

the current imperial religion is actually a "reform" religion

#

like its the kinder, softer version of the imperial truth

#

there are a lot of reformers in the admech too

#

as crazy as the imperial truth as a religion is, there are tons of different interpretations and sects of it and its the same with the admech

pascal's name is funny because it's probably supposed to make you think of the pressure unit but in french it's a very normal name

Greetings, I have a couple questions about this channel. So this channel discusses all known 40k lore? And do you also have information on darktide?

storm jungle
#

We do.

#

we sometimes get off-topic but we the mods allow since it doesnt harm anyone so make yourself feel at home KEKW_ogryn

wraith quartz

Hmmm, ok

#

I do want to play catch up on some lore points...

So what is the question ?

outer wave
#

What sort of answers do you seek....

celest dome
#

Ask in both chat, let's compare which is more helpful KEKW_ogryn

wraith quartz
#

Ok, so to start out with this crash course catch up. In terms of the Imperium of Mankind. How much territory do they have (in your best estimate), and how are hives cities forged?

storm jungle
#

oh boy

wraith quartz
#

Sorry if it's too broad of a question

storm jungle
#

Okay so the Imperium basically lays "claim" to the enitre galaxy but they only house a million worlds and also gain as much as they lose worlds on a daily basis due to being a nightmarish authoritarian regime + their own incompetence. Their territory is more of a "carpet" one than something concrete minus some planets since the Milky Way contains between 100 and 400 billion stars and at least that many planets.

#

Hive cities meanwhile are just forged from building structures ontop of each other hence why it looks like a massive spike going upwards to the sky

celest dome
winged jacinth
#

im not sure theres any maps that have both terra and another real named place but there are settled worlds out to nearly the rim of the galaxy i think

storm jungle
#

Yeah like i said "carpet" territory

#

prob the best term for it

winged jacinth
#

one of the abnett characters was born in the Barnard's Star system which is real but not on any of the damn maps lol

storm jungle
#

You can go find one madlad's entire 40k galaxy map for that one

green loom
#

The imperium is like a garbage bag full of holes draped over an open window

storm jungle

#

or that yeah

winged jacinth
#

space empires are necessarily sparse though because most planets are totally useless

storm jungle
#

also like

#

Space is big

#

lol

winged jacinth
#

40k has a comical amount of habitable planets but we can blame the space frog lizard wizards for that

storm jungle
#

Yeah meanwhile IRL

#

we can barely find habitable planets at all

#

and some are just titanic monstrosities with super fucked up ecosystems

green loom
winged jacinth
storm jungle
#

They can, it just takes a long time

#

hive cities are not marvels of technology, they are rickety ass hives as the name implies

winged jacinth
#

they're kind of marvels but less than the big spaceships are

#

but yeah the imperium has "a million worlds" which is our best estimate and hive cities are built basically the same way favelas are

wraith quartz
storm jungle
#

the Sol System

#

aka our solar system

#

nothing else matters

wraith quartz
storm jungle
#

Uhhh depends.

#

Most are literally favela-shitholes

tough haven
#

I don’t mind

storm jungle
#

the others got some industrial capability but thats about it

wraith quartz
#

Hmm

winged jacinth
#

i think they all have industrial capability

tough haven
#

Most serve a purpose, the imperium doesn’t house people for the fun of it

winged jacinth
#

what's the point of a human if they arent making lasguns

storm jungle
#

their core purpose is to house a planet's population since the worlds they inhabit thend to be super fucked and the population needsa more ""suitable"" place to reside

#

the problem is hivecities are also awful lol

tough haven
#

But livable, technically

storm jungle
#

If you like shifting through shit-water for food yes

tough haven
wraith quartz
winged jacinth
#

hive cities at the very least provide guardsmen

tough haven
#

Rarely

#

But those usually the imperium fucks up through industry

winged jacinth
#

pleasure worlds or agricultural worlds, or just ones that arent developed enough

tough haven
#

So the people are reliant on the imperium

celest dome
#

Most Hive World produce low tech things, like various Chems, forged weapons and that sort of things

most hive cities are the size of a country

wraith quartz
#

In summary, The Imperium of Man holds claim to the entire galaxy and can only control what they can reach and maintain by warp travel.
Hive Cities are collagerment of structures stacked on top of each other. Not only housing the population of the hive planet, but also serve a purpose of industry, agriculture, or reliquary to the Imperium.

tough haven
#

Pretty much

winged jacinth
#

yeah basically

#

they can control planets basically to the edge but there's plently of people trying to conquer imperial planets and vice versa, hence the constant war

storm jungle

yeah the Imperium uses planets through either itself or its enemies

tough haven

Also quick primer, living in the imperium fucking sucks, do not let anyone tell you otherwise, this is the primary theme of the setting is to satirize it

yeah that revolver is at least a lascannon in the metaphor lol

wraith quartz
#

Right next topic for today. I want to discuss the Imperium main line of defense. The Imperial guard.

celest dome
#

Yes, any specificities?

wraith quartz
#

Right; how many official factions, or "branches" of the guard, are there. And is the word Mobian a slang word for a regiment of a guard or is it like an official faction?

rocky gale
#

The game takes place within a region called the Moebian Domain

#

So it's to signify where they're from

celest dome
#

Yes, there are unnumbered regiments, even Cadia on its own has uncountable regiement

rocky gale
#

The guard are split up into Regiments, any given world could have any number of regiments drawn from it. People mentioned the Tithe earlier and some worlds give their tithe in the form of Regiments for the Imperial Guard

wraith quartz
rocky gale
#

No

storm jungle
#

No its an incredibly tiny fraction

#

this is the galaxy we are talking about here, its gigantic

rocky gale
#

It's a small sector in the Imperium, it was never even mentioned before the game came about

versed ledge
winged jacinth
#

the galaxy is divided into segmentums which are further divided into much smaller domains

wraith quartz
winged jacinth
#

i think there are sectors between segmentums and domains too

#

we're not sure how many inhabited planets are in the moebian domain, at least a dozen maybe a hundred or two?

wraith quartz
#

Hmmm

storm jungle
#

Its unclear, but the Moebian Domain is not gigantic

winged jacinth
#

its somewhere on the edge of segmentums solar and scarus

orchid lark
#

Sectors are large, but space is 95% empty

#

Moebian Domain is part of the Cadian sector isnt it @storm jungle

winged jacinth
#

its "near cadia"

celest dome
#

I don't thing they're near it

rocky gale
#

Lots of worlds will develop their own culture surrounding the Regiments and that's where you will see a lot of variations, but the default currently are the Cadians, but there are also others like the Vostroyan Firstborn, Praetorian Guard, Valhallan Ice Warriors, Catachan Jungle Fighters, Death Korps of Krieg, Elysian Drop Troops, Armageddon Steel Legions, Maccabian Janissaries, Mordant Acid Dogs, Savlar Chemdogs, Scintillan Fusiliers, Tallarn Desert Raiders, Tanith First and Only etc etc etc

storm jungle
#

^

wraith quartz
#

I was curious about it because of some of the texts I read about specific guard members being in certain mobian regiments, like the Moebian 46th and such. And our main heretical enemy the Moebian 6th

storm jungle
#

thats just IRL army stuff

winged jacinth
#

from what we know the moebian domain is probably some small portion of this area, we dont really know where

image.png
storm jungle
#

where a standing army will be spread up into numbered groups

rocky gale
#

Yea every so often they form a new Regiment and stick a bigger number on it

wraith quartz
winged jacinth
#

most of the regiments are named after their founding planet its kinda odd that the moebian regiments are named after the domain

#

but its probably just to avoid confusion

wraith quartz
#

Hmm

orchid lark
celest dome
winged jacinth
#

i think its literally so casual players dont get confused by having 10 different regiment names

orchid lark
#

The Atoman 10th does sound badass

#

Most of the issues for the moebian domain

#

Are its fringe worlds

#

Their regiment name is probably because they fight under one sector lord’s banner, and its the entirety of Moebia instead of a world

#

Or something like that

#

Moebia is also just a nice word to say

storm jungle
winged jacinth
#

but yeah there are a LOT of regiments

#

before cadia got exploded they were maintaining something like 1000 full strength regiments

wraith quartz
#

Now I don't really be put into interrogation, because I have some questions that would arouse suspicion of my loyalty to the Imperium. But, how does the heretical guard come about and what the whole deal of Moebian 6th?

rocky gale
#

They were once a loyal Imperial Regiment like any other, but they got corrupted during their time in the Fringe War

#

Where they were fighting off the Darktide

wraith quartz
#

What's the Fringe War?

rocky gale
#

It's a constant war the Moebian Domain fights at the fringes of their territory against a vast assortment of threats known only to the common people as the Darktide

#

Although it's not one unified force they fight against, it's just lots of different enemy groups, from Chaos Cults to Xenos threats

wraith quartz
#

Ooh, hence the name of the game, "Darktide"

tough haven
#

And we can tell you about Chaos if you wish to know

rocky gale
#

We have such sights to show you

wraith quartz
# tough haven Oh we can tell you all about that

And you'll promise not to interrogate me or turn me into a servitor. Mr. Inquisitor, sir? (Note: both my comments about being under the suspicion of an inquisitor is mostly a joke and you can go along with it)

tough haven
#

No not at all, you’re apart of the warband now, and besides you’ll probably die in a month or less

wraith quartz
#

So for those that aren't a 8 ft human super soldier that fell into the clutches of Chaos during the Horus Heresy. How does a regular turncoat work as chaos?

pine wedge
#

Chaos is everywhere

#

it is insidious

dire apex
pine wedge
#

it festers in hive cities, where citizens lead oppressed and cruel existences. it can take root in Guard regiments, fighting harsh wars and dying by the thousands, sure to never see their homes again. it lives inside cursed books, lurks in the dark, threads the very air

#

regular people that turn to Chaos become members of cults, or warbands, or Traitor Guard regiments, or corsair fleets, or any number of dissident and heretical elements

#

in Darktide we deal with two different kinds: the Admonition, aka the "dregs" , a Chaos cult worshipping Nurgle that is made up out of citizens of Hive Tertium

#

and the Moebian Sixth regiment of Traitor Guard, aka the "scabs"

#

in this case both elements work together to stage an insurrection against the Imperium and spread the Blight

tough haven
#

The voices promise better basically

pine wedge
#

yeah. they believe they are saving Tertium from oppression by the Imperium, and being shackled to fragile mortal bodies. Nurgle's diseases are horrible, but they also dull pain and turn bodies into bloated, hardy vessels

#

they think they're doing the right thing

wraith quartz
#

Ok, the hobos make a little more sense now, but I guess I was about how the 6th came to be and what their motive is.

tough haven
#

Until demons made of the concepts of ||RAPE||and LEMON JUICE do things you literally can’t imagine to you

pine wedge
#

they fought Chaos in the Fringe Wars and fell to its influence

#

the details are not known to us

#

except the planet of Nox Alpha yeah

wraith quartz
#

Hmmm

dire apex
#

We also know that there was some foul play with the nobles that control Atoma

pine wedge
#

we have new lore tidbits of the circumstances surrounding their fall from the Warp Echoes voicelines that the Martyr's Skulls make

gray umbra
#

Chaos corruption can also affect you mentally so you find worshippers jumping through tons of mental gymnastics

pine wedge
#

Wolfer turned traitor and massacred half of the Regiment, the ones that remained loyalists

wraith quartz
dire apex
#

There are indications that they set up the 6th to be corrupted in some sort of power play or chaos scheme.

pine wedge
#

they were suffering massively, and Wolfer was seen with a "new priestess" before he turned Traitor. my guess is that he had a Chaos cultist, a witch? sorceress? whispering in his ear and promising him that he could save his men from their gruesome fate if he accepted Chaos

gray umbra
#

But usually the core reason tends to be kind of understandable

tough haven
#

Save from a glorious death?

pine wedge
#

only for the Moebians to turn on Atoma

winged jacinth
#

i hope we get an assasination mission where we have to kill some heretic noble's powerful chaos bodyguard but the actual completion is walking up to the sniveling rich guy and beheading him with the authority of the inquisition

storm jungle
#

since the drug labs imply this cult has been going for awhile

wraith quartz
#

That's all I have for now, but thank you for giving me a crash course

dire apex
#

I think the cult is a symptom as well

storm jungle
#

Well they are probably the originators of it all

#

we got no other evidence for it

wraith quartz
#

I'll probably ask more lore questions or topics throughout the week or so, it depends on my work schedule.

rocky gale
#

There's a Slaanesh cult amongst the Nobles pulling the strings, I feel it in my bones.

Not that BSF plays bad but

The pox walkers fit

Everything else doesn’t

It uses the blooded kit, 2 bsf minis, ogryn and kasrkin kit lol

Also poxwalkers

because everyone is wearing mint gear and looks like they didn't just get picked off a prison carrier

so the Corda and Winterscale rogue trader houses have been in the lore before the CRPG?

I doubt it? I think they made the expanse from scratch

Made for the tabletop rogue trader rpg

sacred ginkgo
#

A really old map of it exists somewhere

arctic talon
#

It’s in the rpg source book

#

As fun as the iconoclast ending would be I doubt GW is gona make any of the video game endings canon

radiant lance
#

I think they'd be brutally crushed by a space marine force in like a couple of years. Certainly before the decade is over

sacred ginkgo
#

Yeah, considering you unleash a fucking ||c'tan shard||

radiant lance
arctic talon
#

Tbf the iconoclast ending where the shard is your friend

#

Literally has it cut off anyway in

radiant lance
#

It's the "the power of friendship" ending

#

Also, a friendship with a c'tan is probably includes it fucking you over later

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

It hasn’t called in it’s debts yet

plush mason
#

i ask because it seems the 2 houses are involved in a short story

#

or rather one of the creepy little fluff stories GW likes to make

arctic talon
#

Both existed before hand

#

It would seem

plush mason
#

the skull pit of Lucien's Breath

plush mason
#

then the whole sector is basically free of the imperium forever

arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

The ending seems like the maw is never opening again

#

Which means only way in would be for nids, eldar, Necrons

plush mason
#

yeah

arctic talon
#

Unless the imperium learns to travel the webway lol

plush mason
#

isnt the webway full of horrors all its own?

winged jacinth
#

Some, since magnus ruined it for everyone

plush mason
#

no i mean, i know of some stories and one of the quests in the CRPG talks about the "beasts of the webway"

winged jacinth
#

Daemons afaik

#

Or necron war machines from the war in heaven, or just harlequins

plush mason
#

lol

#

hell might just be all 3

arctic talon
#

There’s daemons, random warp creatures, clowns

#

Rarely some lost drukhari and craftworlders

winged jacinth
#

Oh and psychic wasps

arctic talon
#

Those fall under warp creatures

plush mason
arctic talon
#

Clowns

#

If you think about it the clowns are like eldar civil engineers

plush mason
#

tbf everyone fears the clowns

arctic talon
#

Since they maintain the roads webway

winged jacinth
arctic talon
#

Yep

#

Magnus eradicated their presence

tough haven
arctic talon
#

Either way the webway sucks lol

arctic talon
#

The other icono ending is the imperium bashes your skull in

#

Lol

tough haven
#

cause I dont think a iconoclast would really want that thing out and about if they "care about lives or whatever"

tough haven
winged jacinth
arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

The webway is

#

Just sort of horrifying lol

#

Safer then the warp though

winged jacinth
#

it didnt have daemons until magnus broke it afaik? but yeah theres plenty of nasty stuff to run into inside

#

harlequins are probably the safest thing to run into assuming its not a solitaire

arctic talon
#

Once magnus broke the hole

#

The other daemons figured out how to break in slowly

#

So daemonic incursions sort of just happen now and the harlequins need to stop them

#

Before they get too bad

#

Either that or amputate that portion of the webway

plush mason
#

well what if Vect wants to cause a disjunction in a part of the dark city?

#

will the clowns just ignore it or keep an eye on it?

arctic talon
#

Keep an eye on it I’d assume

plush mason
#

honestly does Vect even do that?

arctic talon
#

No

#

Because daemons are really bad

#

Since they can summon more daemons

winged jacinth
#

especially if you're an eldar!

plush mason
#

dark eldar even more so

winged jacinth
#

well craftworlders do ok but i imagine dark eldar want to keep as much metaphysical distance from the warp as possible

#

there are probably at least a few ancient necron horrors wandering the webway in addition to the occasional fresh necron incursion

You could combine the idea with The Jaunt by Steven King. Basically FTL travel works like normal, going from point A to B, but time travels so slowly for the brain that you can go insane if you experience the FTL.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jaunt

The Jaunt

"The Jaunt" is a horror short story by Stephen King first published in The Twilight Zone Magazine in 1981, and collected in King's 1985 collection Skeleton Crew. The story takes place early in the 24th century, when the technology for teleportation, referred to as "Jaunting", is commonplace, allowing for instantaneous transportation across enorm...

There's also a similar concept from Project Moon universe, where train stations use a similar technology, but the company that provides this service do a couple of things:

1.) Steal time from the passengers, whatever that means.

2.) Employs employees to fight whatever abomination any passenger has become if they were awake during the travel

tough haven
# outer wave Mix in super Hell or dimension shit

I dont wanna necessarily do a Super Hell cause its too close to the warp, but I kinda like the idea of a pocket dimension, whether I will name it or not is something else, but its essentially a nexus point for all causality, which allows you to find impossibly quick routes to travel through, but it also kinda manifests every possibility at once, however improbable, even using different sets of universal laws from a universe where they apply differently, in essence, you are rolling for an infinitely large wild magic table

#

was the book written and published before they opted on the settings being separate?

celest dome

Maybe they have a similar past

#

Or its writing issue due to being a difficult subject

winged jacinth
#

Each universe is contained within a tiny vessel in the other one don't worry about it

plush mason

lol

winged jacinth
#

When they first wrote 40k they wanted to keep their most recognizable IPs hence the chaos gods, and there were some abortive attempts at maybe unifying some old one and slann lore to hint at a connection before that was largely abandoned as i understand it

#

As the lore of each has evolved they've moved further and further apart and the age of sigmar stuff basically removes the last vestiges of the possibility imo

inb4 warhammer: TOW has 40k and AOS in 2 small glass bottles on some wizard's bookshelf

Warhammer 40k Lore is HUGE and it can be difficult to know where to start. With content creator, with rulebooks, or by diving into the novels? Well, have no fear - in this little video I give a brief guide to the main themes of 40k, and then go through where to find it, from Wikis to YouTubers!

There are already people coping by saying that it's going to be a new Yarrick model

#

Geriatric yarrick on a wheel chair mounted with heavy bolters

#

Rolling down a hill to have his final showdown with the orks

storm jungle
#

I can see why people mistake it for being related to orks because it's literally unmistakable claw design for them to have three fingers but like it's way too clean

rocky gale
#

It'd be funny if it was already a new Vashstorr model

#

Less than a year old, time to replace it

#

it doesn't have extra junk sticking on it

#

ork tech tends to look very sharp and very menacing

#

It's the shape of the claw that really makes people think it's an ork

#

three sharp claws is basically the most basic design for a Power Klaw
