Humans are good at thinking of wild and inventive ways to kill eachother

I don't think square bullets would actually perform very well on account of being, well, square.

dusk patrol

Best to keep it that way

rocky gale

Apparently Red liquorice is not made with any liquorice at all

rose thorn

rose thorn
arctic talon

Anise oil which smells and tastes the same effectively

They skip a few steps

celest dome

Isn't it technically spuds ?

queen laurel
#

What a f****** surprise

dusk patrol
#

I’ve had both types, there’s not really a difference

#

Some are made cheaper but

#

They’re all pretty much the same

rocky gale
#

Anise and Liquorice don't taste similar at all

rose thorn
#

quick lroe question

#

do imperium ships still use 90% slavery

storm jungle
#

Yes

#

a lot

rose thorn
#

Thank you Dilara uwu

arctic talon
#

Yes

dusk patrol
#

I’ve been to Europe and tried versions made with actual liquorice made in the US and Europe

arctic talon
#

why would they not use slavery

rose thorn
#

i wasnt sure if i should say work gang or chain gang

dusk patrol
#

They’re very similar

storm jungle
#

The most automated ships are Marine ones who still got some labour-slaves but its not as much.

crisp heath
rose thorn
dusk patrol
#

Especially if it’s done local and not the cheaper mass produced stuff

storm jungle
rose thorn
#

PFFFF

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

its dumb as shit but it fits the Imperium

#

Well it is

#

but like its prelavent still

rocky gale
#

Like we have both Aniseed products and Liquorice products, they're not similar at all. Completely different flavour profiles

arctic talon
#

it got mentioned in newer sources as well

#

is more so my point

storm jungle
#

Ye ye

arctic talon
#

it isn't just some old weirdness

storm jungle
#

its me im the old weirdness

#

same

green loom
queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Yeah it is

crisp heath
#

If I was in the imperium instead of a functional loading mechanism in bolters I'd genetically engineer very tiny people so they could chamber bolts by hand and live in the gun

rose thorn
#

also, is there a set number of known sectors or is terhe plenty of space for homebrew

storm jungle
#

literally just

#

"anywhere"

rose thorn

Technology worms

#

You know they say the human body is more complex than any machine

arctic talon
#

fun fact the imperium does have auto loaders

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

they're just only on a few ships + mechanicus ships

dusk patrol
#

So maybe it’s actually more advanced to use humans

arctic talon
storm jungle
crisp heath
#

Like how big. 5 miles? 10 miles?

dusk patrol
#

We know the segmentums

rocky gale
#

The Lekgolo from Halo are Technology Worms

dusk patrol
#

There’s effectively endless sectors

arctic talon
#

past the segmentums you're allowed to do anything you want

#

tbh

storm jungle
#

^

dusk patrol
#

40k is built for homebrew

storm jungle
#

only the semmentums are concrete because they are just imaginary lines

arctic talon
#

or be like me and have your faction be an explorator fleet

#

Therfore I don't need a proper fucking homeworld

dusk patrol
#

Smh

crisp heath
#

All good stories happen outside of imperial space anyway

dusk patrol
#

Uh huh

dusk patrol
rose thorn
#

and then ride them around in their freetime

#

Yeee thats what 40k is made for like we said so lol

At least they’re not all psykers

I swear to god every fucking homebrew of anything

What would you guys do if GW announced an end times to 40k, while also announcing there will be a Warhammer 80k setting?

queen laurel
shadow plover

and I've not got any

crisp heath
#

They won't do it but I'd actually like the Imperium to properly collapse. Maybe a good idea if they want to do a spinoff setting like the horus heresy but 10k years in the future instead of in the past.

Cool cool

I have conceived a lore-friendly potential solution to "what if we had a Plague Marine Boss Fight?"
A Heretek Tech Marine, overseeing potential production of Armaments for the Meobian Chaos Guard, or a recently landed Death Guard Scout Marine.

Corpse starch chips

Cheese and Onion was literally the first flavour of Crisp

hallow plover
#

Back on tracks

rocky gale
#

and it's Irish, not British

crisp heath
#

I usually just put soy sauce in everything but I'm hearing a rumor it has a lot of salt

rocky gale
#

Never forget, the Irish invented flavoured crisps

dusk patrol
#

I seriously doubt we actually know the original origin of chips

arctic talon
#

Soy sauce has a ton of salt and MSG lol

#

its why it tastes good

#

its why your brain like it

crisp heath

Do I really come across dumb enough that didn't register as a joke

The first flavoured crisps were made in 1954 by Joe Spud Murphey, owner of Tayto

My dad grew up with cattle and he talks about cows like he survived trench warfare

queen laurel

They chew on bones to get calcium and there was even one on australia chewing on a snake

Cows are lovely

queen laurel

They will not hesitate to eat flesh if it helps them in any way

dusk patrol
#

Literally me

crisp heath
#

Most herbivores will eat meat if the opportunity presents itself

#

They just aren't equipped for it to be a large part of their diet

Deer are the exception because deer will hunt anything smaller than a cat

arthropods are the best lifeforms, i cna tlak about eveyrthing i love about them for hours and hours

queen laurel

I say this and i will say it again this place is a gathering of some of the most specific wavelength of people

#

We can talk about how corn chips tastes like corn to going to animals immediately to going back to 40k almost in an instant

crisp heath
#

Arthropods are our ancient enemies, our fear of them is genetic. For millions of years all other life lived in fear of the armored titans, and now we only believe we have finally overtaken them, but they swarm and stir beneath our feet in untold legions, knowing we will fall and they shall again rise.

Ooof ok well have fun, I'd recommend getting the unofficial collection because it preserved most of the secrets and Easter eggs

crisp heath

Yeah it's basically a compilation of all the homestuck. The stuff on the official site is like, 70% of the original content

rose thorn
#

Where is that then?

crisp heath
#

This has the paradox space comics (the only important ones are Vrisky Business and the Inaugural Death of Mr. Seven), the "forbidden lore" (Andrew Hussies personal notes, got deleted because of extremely offensive content), and quite a bit of miscellany. I believe it also has a mirror of all the characters blogs like Dave's WordPress and Caliborn's deviantart

It's a lot lmao

Oh and maybe check out Mobius Trip and Hadron Kallaido, which is the homestuck rock opera prequel

:3 Ight, I gotta catch up on some shows and a comic one of my gfs really like

#

Then I’ll look into it

#

Oh yeah homebrew lore for my gsc, I’m starting on their history

#

The Hall Skitters are the largest Navis Imperalis chain gang in the Bitterclaw sector to the point they have been found in a majority of the void ships in the sector. They are well known for their innate ability to smuggle dirtcycles and wolfquads into the lower decks of ships and ride them through the halls in rare moments of free time. It is believed the Hall Skitters were the origin point of The Void Coven’s founding.

#

I forgot to@mention they are on ships lol

rose thorn
#

Within the Void Coven to be a Hall Skitter is a title of high honor and a sign of veteran status. Unlike other genestealer these Hall Skitters operate as personal task forces for high ranking members of the cult. The Jackal Alphus lead the Hall Skitters and are held on the same rank of respect as the Primus and the Magus.

A long las can kill a space marine

arctic talon
#

yeah that also

#

Anti Material rifle begins veering into overkill/body shot them territory

#

like you still need precision with snipers

#

Anti material rifles you could just hammer the marine with body shots till he dies

celest dome
#

Aren't AM rifles usually slower and slightly less precise than marksman rifles ?

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

but they get used by some 40k units as a normal sniper

#

like the bolt sniper rifle marines use

#

like shit like the Tau rail rifle absolutely counts as an anti material rifle as well

#

40k doesn't really choose to make the distinction in universe really

crystal forum
#

funny since the longest confirmed kills are made by anti material rifles

#

which i just learned that apparently the longest one was made by a ukrainian in the current war

rose thorn
wintry scarab
#

Funny thing i noticed, they put the grooves in from where you insert the mag and scope part when assembling the model into space marine 2.

arctic talon
#

That’s pretty funny ngl

wintry scarab
#

Also what do you guys think the chances are we get to see/play as terminators?

arctic talon
#

see? 100% we've seen Ksons terminators already

storm jungle
#

Yeah Play is iffy

#

it would be a good marketing point but need to be seen if its a future addition or not

wintry scarab
#

Would be a cool killstreak. Or like a hero from battlefront.

outer wave
#

NEXT TIME ON SPACE MARINE 2: LEANDROS DISCOVERS A SPACE HULK COMING TOWARDS THE PLANET FULL OF GENESTEALERS but LUCKILY HE HAS NEW FRIENDS! THE TERMINATORS

#

There you go, first DLC made

wintry scarab
#

God, after this second trailer i really hope for this game to be good. But damn this pre order and early access thing is rubbing me the wrong way.

arctic talon
#

be like me and assume its mid as hell

#

like the first game

wintry scarab
#

I really like the first game. I guess it was a bit mid, but i had a really good time with it. But i did only buy it like a year ago.

arctic talon
#

the game is like a 6/7 out of 10

wintry scarab
#

So i was a bit late to the party. Nice to see that the mp was still alive

arctic talon
#

elevated by like

#

the setting

wintry scarab
#

6/7 and mid? Nah, id say 6/7 qualifies at least a good.

arctic talon
#

Ehh

green loom
#

90% of these games can sell you just on good presentation tbh

arctic talon
#

I wouldn't accept a 6/10 or 7/10 on my quiz lol

green loom
#

You're susceptible to it because you likes warhammer

arctic talon
#

at least thats my opinion on scoring stuff

#

anything below 6 is unacceptable and shouldn't have been made in the first place

wintry scarab
#

damn, harsh

green loom
#

Like I think Company of Heroes is overall better than all 3 Dawn of Wars but I'll still play Dawn of War over it lol

arctic talon
#

idk

#

I'm picky lol

#

especially when it comes to grading stuff

#

Dawn of War 3 is like a 5/10 to me its horrid but I can still derive some enjoyment from it

#

(the story isn't terrible)

wintry scarab
#

One last thing. Im confused about this. They say there is no "in game cash shop" but then there is cosmetic DLC? Like what does that even really mean? Are they saying they are going to do like old cod style skin packs for example?

green loom
#

Cosmetic DLC on steam

#

Meaning, not in the ingame cash shop smarf

wintry scarab
#

So this tweet is sort of a nothing burger

green loom
#

Well I mean there's still no MTX in game

#

And no bullshit premium currency with predatory pricing

#

cough

arctic talon
#

but yeah the cosmetics are all gona be

#

"DLC"

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

No

#

since they have to sell them through a storefront

#

they can't make you buy like IMPERIAL THRONES to buy the cosmetics

green loom
#

cough cough

arctic talon
#

you need to buy the "DLC" from the store page

green loom
#

They're doing it old school basically

#

Same as how SM1 did it

#

Except it looks like all skins will let you use their components in custom sets

arctic talon
#

its like color packs in anime fighting games lul

#

but more substantial

wintry scarab
#

Ok, i get you but they could still pull a £40 bundle move on you in theory. So no bs premium currency but the pricing and bundle system could still fuck us hard in the end.

arctic talon
#

I still think the "there isn't any micro transactions" thing is fucking stupid

arctic talon
#

The Ultramarine Initiate bundle that costs 20$ USD

#

or something

#

and there's an exclusive item inside it

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

Tbf I'm just using it as an example

#

I don't care too much about paid cosmetics in most games

green loom
#

Also by uhhh

#

All means

arctic talon
#

unless the free ones are just blatently dogshit on purpose

green loom
#

There looks to be substantial cosmetics in the base game anyway

arctic talon
#

no this does not include darktide because I find the paid ones to look dogshit most of the time

#

the only free cosmetics I don't like are the ogryn's final tier ones from launch

green loom
#

I didn't like the Veteran Launch sets

arctic talon
#

I loved them ngl

wintry scarab
#

God. Darkdide store. I hate it so. Went from being one of the more fair ones to becoming this shitshow we have now. Im so mad about it.

green loom
#

I love the new ones

arctic talon
#

anyways I expect the DLC for space marine 2 to look like this

wintry scarab
#

I mean again. If its like £5 per armour set im totally fine with it. But if they pull a £20 per skin im gonna be sad

arctic talon
#

at least its third person

wintry scarab
#

And space marines. I like space marines 🙂

wintry scarab
#

Also sry for not shutting up about this game but the top one is "armour sets" while the bottom is "custom armour sets". You think its like loadouts for the custom ones or are the "armour sets" ones that you cant change?

arctic talon
#

Custom armour is the customizable ones

#

armour sets imo are the ones that you get as a "set"

#

you can use the stuff from the set to customize your own

storm jungle
#

This game is also like extremely ambitious in some areas

#

i hope it pays off but ill expect nothing to hopefully be surprised lol

outer wave
#

Only thing is that Im sure we'll never hear the end of it from people in this server

plush mason
#

so is the actual state of Terra just not known in the wider imperium?

#

the place sounds like a hivecity from hell

storm jungle
#

Some people expect it to be like a literal paradise world but can get whelmed when they see its literally coruscant but grimdark

#

shitty hive cities all around

#

the more brainwashed (aka like 90% of the Imperium) meanwhile dont mind that it is such a thing

plush mason
#

well yeah most of them live in hives themselves

#

Terra is just the greatest hive world, in all the expected ways

storm jungle
#

Yeah pretty much

plush mason
#

wow, the carrion throne paints a really really grim picture of Terra, its nothing but a man-made black hole eatting the imperium from within

dusk patrol
#

Yeah that’s most depictions

#

Watchers and the Vaults of Terra books just give us direct on the ground stuff

#

But that’s always been it’s lore

storm jungle
#

yeah before the books you dont see it as upclose

plush mason
#

yeah i just never really thought about it

#

also i had no idea the imperial tithe was only 15%

#

i was expecting like 40% or something

twilit musk
#

even more understandable when the knee jerk overreaction from the imperium lays waste to systems because they don’t want to pay

#

leading officials in the imperium haven’t been able to get it through to planet governors heads that the tithe is, at most, the only thing keeping this shitshow stagnant

#

no tithe then you can join the warp like they would anyway

storm jungle
#

^ KEKW_ogryn

storm jungle
#

Terra produces nothing. It simply consumes.

arctic talon
#

Since terra is known to be a hive world

#

Lol

#

It’s just the most holy planet as well

plush mason
arctic talon
#

Oh it’s shit

#

It’s like one of the worst

#

Lol

#

It’s arguably necromunda tier

storm jungle
#

its worse than Munda imo

#

the entire planet is a city

plush mason
#

at least the people on necromunda arent grey skinned, well most of them anyway

arctic talon
#

In terms of actual awfulness nothing beats terra

storm jungle
#

well yeah in Munda the gang violence is literally encoruaged

arctic talon
#

Terra is the crown jewel

#

Terra just has enough people

#

There’s that much gang violence lol

storm jungle
#

one of the opening text crawls for the codexes for Munda has the announcer congradulating people for gang violence

#

its fucking funny

arctic talon
#

I mean the houses

#

Lol

dusk patrol
#

Munda at least is wacky

#

Terra is just

arctic talon
#

Yeah munda is special

dusk patrol
plush mason
#

having a damn lottery for body counts

arctic talon
#

It is always morally right to blow a scavs head off

storm jungle
#

also yeah like

arctic talon
#

Same applies to maelstrom lol

storm jungle
#

Necromunda is the only planet in 40k with so much fleshed out lore

dusk patrol
#

Don’t wanna die, don’t be a choom

arctic talon
#

*gonk

plush mason
#

choom is friend

#

gonk is target

dusk patrol
#

Such a choom thing to say

storm jungle
#

My favorite thing with Night City is the easiest option is to just leave the city.

#

but people just dont, because various reasons

arctic talon
#

Just fucking leave

#

It’s a shithole

storm jungle
#

love my depressing reality

dusk patrol
#

Just gotta find your ridiculously hot nomad GF who spends her time bending over her car in super tight jeans

#

Then have APC sex with her

plush mason
#

if you pick street V you actually did leave for a few years, couldnt adjust to rules so you come back

dusk patrol
#

Easy clap

storm jungle
#

PANAM MY BELOVED

storm jungle
#

Night City's entire thing is that its basically a vortex of misery

dusk patrol
#

Street V worst V

arctic talon
#

Corpo V/Nomad V both blow streetkid out the water

#

Streetkid intro fucking sucks

plush mason
#

agreed

arctic talon
#

And has the worst dialogue options

#

Nomads also isn’t great dialogue wise

#

But the intro is sick + you and Jackie have a reason to be criends

dusk patrol
#

Corpo is clearly the best but yeah

arctic talon
#

Corpo clearly has had the most time put in lol

dusk patrol
#

Nomad at least you get into Panems Pantems easier

arctic talon
#

Corpo also has like

#

The most connection to Jackie

plush mason
storm jungle
#

poor little bastard

arctic talon
#

Either way imo Corpo V > nomad V > not picking any background specific dialogue > streetkid V

#

Streetkid V is just

plush mason
arctic talon
#

I also lived here in night city

arctic talon
#

They just take the iguana out the case

#

To carry it

dusk patrol
#

Damn I gotta do another play through

plush mason
#

hm iirc there is an iguana in his garage

arctic talon
#

It’s a fish

#

I think a small shark?

plush mason
#

nah thats the empty tank

#

iirc all 3 of the things Jackie is involved with at the start all happen to him just at different stages, so your origin determines when you become his friend

dusk patrol
#

People tell me, Judy is the better female option, she’s not as bitchy, she’s smarter, shes nicer, she’s not as toxic

plush mason
#

nomad is the earliest

dusk patrol
#

But Panem doesn’t make me do a stupid diving mission and we get to have APC sex

#

Also she looks like Panem

#

It doesn’t even make any sense none of the other nomads are that hot where did those genes come from

storm jungle
#

I really do like how everyone just agrees how hot Panam is

arctic talon
#

Panem being a toxic asshole initially makes me like her more

#

Lol

dusk patrol
#

Its funny cause objectively she’s really annoying

storm jungle
#

YEP

arctic talon
#

She feels more like a real person to me

#

Then Judy lol

storm jungle
#

I dont think ive cringed as hard as ive in a game when she rejected me when I asked if she wanted to bang lol

#

its so fucking realistic i legit caved into my chair

arctic talon
#

Judy is too nice imo

#

It’s weird

storm jungle
#

Especially in her line of work

arctic talon
#

River is

#

River

dusk patrol
#

It’s like the whole, a man has to pick between two women, he takes them both out to dinner, one has a long thoughtful conversation, the other makes him laugh, one they go have a romantic late night swim, the other they watch a movie and fall asleep on the couch. But he has to decide.

Then after much deliberation he picks the one with the bigger boobs.

arctic talon
#

I don’t really have anything good or bad to say other then my god it’s awkward

#

If you reject him lol

storm jungle
#

also yeah like

#

they handled rejections REALLY well

#

like i said i legit cringe when it happens, its about as bad as IRL ones lmao

#

the awkwardness especially is EURGHHH

dusk patrol
#

Dude I remember I was watching this one female streamer who loved Kerry and she finally gets to the part where he rejects you if your a girl

#

And it was so great

storm jungle
#

LMAOOOO

#

fuck thats awful KEK

dusk patrol
#

She was not into River

storm jungle
#

but also alas just sometimes what it is

arctic talon
#

River is

#

Unfortunately mid

storm jungle
#

River is such a massive side-character

#

i legit forgot he has a romance

arctic talon
#

He needs more

#

To him

dusk patrol
#

Yeah he’s fine I think but man he’s half assed

#

He’s easy to miss for one

storm jungle
#

^

#

Most people got no idea hes even romancable

dusk patrol
#

Kerry has that issue too though with the romance side plot

#

The real romance option are the fake K-pop girls

storm jungle
#

Yeah it deffo could be worse, its a bit eh but I dont mind it too much. Its not like BG3 where everyone wants to jump on your crotch

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

storm jungle
#

BG3 legit makes me uncomfortable

#

lmao

arctic talon
#

BG3 has people too eager to

#

Uh

#

Yeah

dusk patrol
#

I appreciate they feel like people and it’s actually difficult to romance them without trying

storm jungle
#

F u c k staregryn

dusk patrol
#

Dude I just didn’t wanna be mean to Gale

storm jungle
#

its why when they reject you it jabs hard

green loom
#

Dragon born aren't the only horny ones

storm jungle
#

GET OUT

dusk patrol
#

And then he’s like “oh you want this magical atom bomb dick?”

arctic talon
#

I wish the dark urge was a companion

#

Mostly since I think the interactions would be fucking hilarious

dusk patrol
#

But we sat together one time

storm jungle
#

Ah yes such romantic progress 💀

green loom
storm jungle

me reaching for my taser whenever Halsin shows up

Fucker locked me out of Karelth

storm jungle

LMAO

arctic talon
#

Oof

dusk patrol
#

And then shadow heart bugged the option

green loom
#

Redeemed shadowheart is worth it because she's a crazed cat lady(and adopts an owlbear)

dusk patrol
#

So I was left maidenless

#

Which the skeleton dude made sure to tell me whenever he could

arctic talon
#

Thanks withers

Mfw the god of death is saying “No bitches?”

Withers roasting the three minor death gods after the game is over is hilarious too

“You dunces, that wouldn’t have counted for you!”

#

“Learn to kill people properly!”

green loom

God Gale shitting on Raphael is also funny

dusk patrol
#

That whole sequence is great

#

Kinda sad it’s the hardest fight

#

But very high effort

#

Especially for optional content

#

“Optional”

#

It’s like when the DM is like “oh teehee that magical item perfect for your build is in that cave, probably. But I mean you don’t have to go in there”

green loom
#

Thorough DM vibes

dusk patrol
#

“Did you prepare a whole song for thi-“

“I may have recorded a song for it if you go in there yes.”

#

It did feel funny how it we were able to just kill him lol

#

I kept trying to not kill Hopes sister cause there’s special dialogue if you don’t iirc but it’s absurdly hard to do.

hellos what did i miss

queen laurel

It's absolutely brutal

But at least thank goodness the rewards are worth it

But of course you can also do the cheese

I do appreciate that it’s at least worthwhile

The duelist sword though

Hot take, perhaps a spicy one:
The Skaven should be in 40k.

arctic talon
#

Ironically

#

Also not a hot take tbh

#

A lot of people want space rats

spring cairn
#

slot's taken

#

from a gameplay perspective and less but still from a lore perspective

arctic talon
#

From a gameplay perspective incredibly unstable guns is fulfilled by orks

dusk patrol
#

Also they’d be completely different

crisp heath
#

So adric finally made a warhammer fantasy video and seeing the avatars they use, I thought TK was coming out and blossoming into a beautiful young woman

arctic talon
#

Yeah that also

spring cairn
#

ah yeah, true i always forget that aspect of skavens, because it's not in tww

dusk patrol
#

It’s not the same kind setting

crisp heath
#

That gobbo got hips

arctic talon
crisp heath
#

Like TK's literally has a snatched waist and hips wider than most rivers

arctic talon
#

The skaven I’m not sure how GW could make eviler

#

Because they’re pretty fucking bad

spring cairn
#

they can't get worse

arctic talon
#

They can but I don’t want that to be explicitly stated in warhammer

spring cairn
#

they're even evil to other skavens and they all want to murder each others

crisp heath
#

The tyranids are space skaven

arctic talon
#

Yeah because they’re the great horned rats gift to existence

crisp heath
#

Endless horde using a completely different type of tech from all other factions with 0 moral redeeming qualities

#

Nids are space rats

arctic talon
#

“Tech”

spring cairn
#

cool stuff

arctic talon
#

I’m talking about going further

#

With that

#

It’s already really gross

spring cairn
#

yeah but it's already p far, it's just that they only do it to their own

arctic talon
#

I don’t want to talk about this topic anymore

crisp heath
#

Are skaven edible

spring cairn
#

yes

outer wave
#

Yep

#

You can talk to the ogres about that one

#

They consider them to be very stringy though

spring cairn
#

they're just large somewhat humanoid sentient rats

#

if you can eat a rat

#

you can eat a skaven

#

just mind the diseases

crisp heath
#

Yeah but they're diseased creatures of chaos (extra diseased for plague rats)

spring cairn
#

and some are probably tainted by warpstone

#

which is basically uranium

#

they're not born of chaos
