Coked out british guys in the 80s: okay theres a bunch of space marines called the iron hands who is led by a guy called iron hands on latin and he has iron hands

winged jacinth

killing the thing that gave him iron hands is also what made him planetarily famous, everyone on the planet called him something different before afaik

he has a unique name

#

i don't know where gw borrowed it

storm jungle
#

Guilliman deffo has the most unique one

#

also yeah we dont really know

winged jacinth
#

i love how they justified the name lion el'johnson (i know hes named after a poet) by saying "in caliban language el'johnson means of the forest but they also have a monster they just call a lion"

storm jungle

the best guess is they just yolo'd a historically sounding name

Like their names

they named kings like this

magnus the red is goated

What does Alpha Legion even do in lore? Die to Rogal?

storm jungle

Magnus is a great name that unfortunately gets less unique the more you see it IRL

dusk patrol

Produce annoying memes

They exist to do something and then die but then the author is like

I like Alpha Legion I hate all the fanbase bullshit that comes up with them

They have a super cool look

Does E ever acknowledge one of his sons randomly having an identical twin?

Space terrorism is a cool modus operandi

how does an accident like that even occur

And I’ll forever be annoyed we never got to see Omegon and Alpharius in a tag team primarch fight

storm jungle
# snow fern What does Alpha Legion even do in lore? Die to Rogal?

Alpha Legion are literally just full-on chaos dudes that just wage espionage shit to make Imperial planets fall to chaos.

Realistically speaking loyalist Alphas do exist but we absolutely NEVER EVER see them because they are a chaos legion only for marketing purposes, a large majority of them just get "coped" by fans to think they are secretly helping the Imperium when thats absolutely have never been the case post-30k.

dusk patrol
storm jungle

as Eternal said their fans are actual cancer

crystal forum

alpha legion always felt like the one chapter everybody forgets

storm jungle

also its the same as like

"loyalist fallen exist"

we never see them

its always chaos

But yeah they’re not a major legion

azure knoll
#

welllll.... you could say that, but now, not to beat a dead horse, we have female custodes, which have been possible the entire time but we only just got to see them

coarse pumice

Is it like how people kept saying the dark angels were traitors (at the time of 40K) that is?

dusk patrol

ooooh taking shit

I almost made a homebrew

Though neither of my 40K armies are homebrew

snow fern
#

There was that inquisitor standing up to a custodes while similtaneously shitting himself

dusk patrol
#

They’re not a monolith

azure knoll
#

not a monolith, of course, but teenagers get to become normal people due to experimentation and finding out what works and what doesn't

dusk patrol
#

The Space Wolves actually have Fenrisian women who boss them around and don’t let them into the kitchens and stock rooms and shit.

#

They steward the day to day stuff in the Fang

#

It’s pretty funny

azure knoll
#

if everything the teen does works out for them, they're either lucky because all fo the stuff they did was correct and it got reinforced, or they become a piece of shit because everything they did was bad and it got reinforced

coarse pumice
#

Is that ‘there are no wolves in fenris’ thing still there?

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

coarse pumice

Because that raised some interesting questions

A good cook doesn't let the plebs in the kitchen.

#

Some became the thunder wolves on Fenris

And the wolves of Fenris are descended from them

So there “are not wolves on Fenris”

Cause they’re humans sorta

the skinwolves?

i feel like i'm hanging out in a group of friends. i really appreciate us all sitting down and talking about 3 different topics but only reacting to the one we're engaged in. makes it seem like i'm overhearing what people in other micro-groups are talking about while being engaged in a coversation of my own. i really missed this

dusk patrol

They’re as intelligent as humans

#

nordic people hate wolves is the funny thing to me

dusk patrol
#

They don’t turn back

dusk patrol
#

They’re kinda assholes if you don’t have walls or have to travel

crystal forum
#

and that's why wolves are endangered pretty much everywhere even though they have a massive habitat

winged jacinth
#

They were common heraldic animals but the creatures themselves were feared yeah

dusk patrol
#

Wiping out wolf populations was a huge part of settling the US and European countries

azure knoll

i used to have a friend who went crazy for wolves saying how they're friendly and smart and won't attack you if you're calm

never believed his bullshit

doesn't help the british put huge bounties on hunting them

I fear bears more

crystal forum
dusk patrol

They’ve learned to avoid humans

#

They weren’t

#

Wolves were very dangerous in medieval times

azure knoll
#

bears are horrifying bth. surprised more people don't have them as their "spirit animal"

winged jacinth
#

Bears don't generally want to eat people (except polar bears)

dusk patrol
#

They’ve jsut since learned

azure knoll
#

because i'd take somebody who has a bear tattoed more seriously than somebody who has a wolf or a lion

dusk patrol
#

Humans became too dangerous for them to attack

snow fern
#

bears have an association with strength and are much more solitary than wolves

azure knoll
#

the people who romanticize wolves never like the group aspect of them

snow fern

wolves are incredibly social

Medieval dudes used all sorts of dangerous animals as crests

Rome and turkey both claimed literal descent from wolves

Humans haven’t changed that much I imagine

crystal forum
# dusk patrol They weren’t

wolf attacks have been uncommon since humans started being sedentary. it's only in rural areas that it happened and it was a lot rarer than what pop culture portrays

people have been fascinated by wolves since forever though

i am not pictured

#

and I'm pretty sure rats made it into space and onto other worlds

#

rats and dogs make good pets

#

not every imperial world is corpse starch and fascism, just most

#

and nobles can get away with A LOT

#

so I'm sure there are tons of pets, including alien ones

#

i think there is a rogue trader model with an alien bird

winged jacinth
#

probably all the terran animals exist somewhere from early colonization

#

and the biologos are cooking up fresh ones all the time

crystal forum
#

there's some imperial worlds that resemble ours

#

they're never illustrated but they exist

dusk patrol

Generally there’s at least examples of recreated animals

#

Often bigger

Elysium has giant lions, Baal had giant white leopards, Nocturne has giant Whoopi Goldbergs who breathe fire

Fenris has wolves, Bears

Krakens

I think Wolverine like things

Insert Catachan Australia joke here

They are

celest dome

There’s a short where they investigate the eggs

And Magos verifies they’re Tyranid in origin

winged jacinth

yeah it just doesnt make any sense to me

arctic talon

its a devolved nid

celest dome

Tyranids offshoots aren't unique, Catachan devil's for example

arctic talon

its gone native

celest dome
#

Afaik Necromunda has one too

dusk patrol
#

There’s examples on some planets of this visit

winged jacinth
#

yeah but planets shouldnt be able to recover from being harvested by tyranids, they dont leave any of the stuff behind

snow fern
#

I want that psyker cat

dusk patrol
#

Who says they harvested them

#

It’s possible it was just a scouting fleet or some small splinter

#

Which went native to preserve itself

#

We don’t know but there’s a lot of reasons they could be there

celest dome
#

Or whose Hivemind got disconnected

dusk patrol
#

Wouldn’t be the wildest thing a nid fleet has done

winged jacinth
#

tyranids that reproduce themselves strike me as odd but maybe that's a trait of some very frontline scoutforms for undefended worlds

dusk patrol
#

Imo it’s likely the fleet was on its last legs so it seeded some life on worlds to just survive

#

But we obviously don’t know

winged jacinth
#

i suppose the hivemind can also literally go "this one lays eggs" whenever it wants

celest dome
