but no actual romantic subplot anywhere

#

thats a missed opportunity, man

queen laurel

To have a romantic subplot

rapid ravine

uh yea

thatd be sick and interesting

I appreciate the honesty

dude people gave jesus a romantic subplot in the extended fanon xD

#

the people want it

#

Don't trust them just don't

rapid ravine
#

im not sure if you just called me racist because im dumb bc i think thatd be a neat story tbh

#

confusing

#

anyhoo

queen laurel
#

Trust me we're used to it around here

rapid ravine
#

i think the emperor should have been the lead of the Titanic

queen laurel
#

I mean i guess, i mean he can look like adam sandlers if he wanted to he just kind of pick that look

plush mason
#

i did not know these things existed

rocky gale
#

Yea they're one of the many Warcrimes the Dark Angels can deploy

thick storm
#

what y'all think about the trans space marines and normal characters drama that's going on?

celest dome
#

What Trans Space Marine ?

thick storm
#

idk the exact details but i heard some dudes want trans space marines added to lore

#

and overall trans people

celest dome
#

I think it's not really an issue, and I think it's the broader communities opinion, at least for the people that often come here

#

As for normal Trans, I think people who have issues with it are the problematic ones

thick storm
#

I'm kinda curious how trans people would fit into lore now

#

imperium side atleast

#

cus i feel like you'd just get called a heretic if u even suggested such blasphemy

tough haven
#

They’d say “that’s really cool and all but get back to work”

thick storm
#

fair point but i mean more like becoming

#

neh there's probably some kinda stuff

tough haven
#

I also don’t think they’d care, you’re still human and your trigger finger still works

thick storm
#

i mean like actual gender reassignment

#

wise

rocky gale
#

Like so long as you're doing the work and following the rules then it's not necessarily an issue

celest dome
#

Really depend on the world

thick storm
#

just a random hive normal person

tough haven
#

You can get parts of your brain replaced with advanced targeting hardware, I imagine if you’re rich it’s essentially the same as getting an expensive augmetic

tough haven
storm jungle
#

Yeah you'd need to like know an actual good doctor too lol

thick storm
#

there was that one 40k book where the creator wrote in a trans foot soldier i think so that's why im honestly asking

#

just kinda wondering how that would work

storm jungle
#

Theres not really much to "work", they just are.

#

Most would not care or know what "trans" even is

#

we got multiple examples of non-binary characters among other things, they just roll with it

thick storm
#

no ye i get that part no one would really care since ur just a chunk of meat for the imperium basically

#

but i mean as in getting the surgery wise

#

i gotta do more research on hives for this

storm jungle
#

Theres not really any research to do

#

the entire structures/societies of hives depends on plot

#

there could be expert underground doctors to do such operations considering how advanced medical tech can get in the Imperium

#

think of ripper docs like Cyberpunk

#

some are frauds, some can literally replace yoru whole spinal cord, etc

thick storm
#

true

rocky gale
#

The Admech have a special branch made up of the Magos Transologis, it's their role to go through the Imperium providing gender affirming care. yesgryn

thick storm
thick storm
#

now that i think about it aren't space marines just a sexual

#

and then 1/4 of chaos marines pansexual/bisexual

celest dome
#

In fairness, the game already show trans people, by letting you change gender and personality at the Barber

rocky gale
#

Asexual doesn't relate to gender though

tough haven

You'll spend 90% of the time fighting the barbs and then by the time you fight other Civs, it'll be a cake walk

tough haven
#

Even if pvp?

rocky gale
#

Dunno actually

tough haven
#

Is it kinda dawn of war esque?

rocky gale
#

Anytime I've played with friends we end up working together against the Barbs

tough haven
#

Do you win by just bring the last standing?

rocky gale
#

Yea

tough haven
#

Also is there cross play between egs and steam?

rocky gale
#

No clue

thick storm
#

What's egs?

rocky gale
#

Epic game store

thick storm
#

ye should be able to

#

i just searched it up said u can

tough haven
#

Ok cause my friend was dumb and got it on epic even though it’s fucking on steam

thick storm
#

isn't it still free on steam?

#

on another note any of y'all play vermintide?

tough haven
#

It’s free rn

Still think Darktide's better

celest dome

I love it, on certain points more than DT

VT is a somewhat perfect game

DT is however the Correct game

celest dome

I wouldn't say it's a perfect game

#

It's a great game though

Thats why i said somewhat

VT and VT 2 are great fun and so well done in most parts

#

since our galaxy was so peaceful EVERYBODY joined my federation

we just got up and were like fuck these old ass empires let's show em a lesson

river walrus

Ulgo played like "you is tiny nation, will help you if you friend"

since, as a cheeky player i always make sure president decides everything in my federation

and i have a cheeky way to make sure i'm always president

#

but it's currently late game and i need to fight the crisis so i can't waste my time on some petty empire

river walrus

Ulgo made samurai kingdom. Lotsa revolution. Took 200 years but old leader son (Ulgo name him Genghis) took over all of old broken empire.

What is the Emperors name?

He doesnt have one.

and doesnt really reveal it

rose thorn

Canon*

crystal forum
#

He's definitely had many names

#

who even knows which one would be the most accurate

#

like just imagine how long ago his original name must have been given to him in some probably long dead language

storm jungle
#

The only one he ever says are Neoth and Revelation

#

which are both placeholders and obvs not his real name

#

lmao

#

the characters who know him say as much

#

hes also a Hittite so not like its prob anything fancy

hallow plover
#

True names have power

river walrus
#

Maybe Name is Melvin

dusk patrol
#

It’s worth noting almost all the perpetuals barely knew him through most of his life

#

So as much as Malcador and Erda and others try to talk about him like that they’re just referring to their fairly limited window they knew him

#

Ollanius is the only one who really knew him that long and even he was fairly limited

#

Also they’re all dumbasses, the real way to take over the world is through merchandising

I remember one time I was writing notes in class and the History teacher just materialised next to me, leaned over the table and had his face an inch away from the book I'd been writing in, then turned his head to look up at me and said "Can you read this illegible script?" and when I nodded he said "Very good" stood up and walked off.

The negative energy they produce is catastrophic

Entirely lol

#

Ive got to say, with space marine 2, it makes me kinda sad and angry that there is no uproar about the damn preorder and edition bullshit.

dusk patrol
#

Tbh it’s 40 bucks for the game

#

I don’t really care if people wanna buy it to play early for that much extra

#

I’m happy it’s a relatively cheaper game

storm jungle
#

^

#

The uproar will or will not happen depending how the base game is

#

because again remember we literally had absolutely nothing for the first few teasers and trailers, this latest one is the most info dump we had so far in the span of like 2 years and its just 3 months away now.

green loom
#

Isn't it 60 bucks?

#

I know it's 60 Euros

spring cairn
#

yeah in euros it's 60

#

but in dollars it's 40 something

plush mason
#

no

#

its 60 USD

#

Euro and USD have been near equal in value for a few years now

#

also i think the tweet they posted about SM2 having 0 MTX and only cosmetic dlc packs has helped to mitigate the uproar over the pre-orders

wintry scarab
#

I think the season pass is fine. Preorder bonus i hate. I will hate it even more if its pre order exclusive. god i hope its not, and the 3 days early thing im not the biggest fan of as well.

#

Did darktide to early access for preorders? I think i preordered darktide iirc for some reason.

outer wave
#

I wish they did it much earlier and not as a pre order incentive tbh

The beta was open anyway

#

I didn't even preorder

I actually don't recall that anymore

Damn am I going senile....

this whole convo reminded me of something i learned about this morning and basically pushed out of my mind because of just how strange it is to me

How many classe are they doing ? 6 ?

I believe it was six

It is 6 ye

tactical, assault, vanguard, bulwark, sniper and heavy

i wonder if all 3 can play as heavy bolter

If we know

Wait no Librairian ?

I guess they'll have weapons that are shared

and the bulwark has a shield so no primary

fml I can't wait for this game

I'm super tempted to get the first game on steam because I haven't played it in forever

I replayed it a few months ago. Worth it.

storm jungle

you can finish it in a single day if you feel down to it

queen laurel

yeah it's very linear too

small epoch

If you've never played it, then you definitely have to try it out. But it's worth a replay too.

Yeah its deffo a piece of 40k history

aka "one of the few good 40k games"

amidst like a sea of shit

And I'm sure it's cheap as hell on Steam right now because of the sale.

There is a reason why RTS tend to be very PC heavy

I'm not shitting on console just to be clear

Guys can we force the alpha genners to play RTS games so we have more fans and therefore more push for more RTS games?

celest dome

Love how we all agree to that KEKW_ogryn

arctic talon
#

Halo wars has micro against all odds lol

queen laurel
#

It's just that the nature of an RTS games makes it better for the more complex controls of a PC

arctic talon

They put a lot of effort into making it work well

Halo Wars is a great RTS and a great way to make a Console RTS work

Total Warhammer 3 is pretty good, albeit rough

if we're talking about RTS that i wish didn't get obliterated though

#

C&C 3 Kanes Wrath is also great

Also the base CnC

queen laurel

and it's recovering bit by bit

TWW3 had such potential
Then the Dlc team decided on doing other way

hyenas

we gotta make hyenas

outer wave
#

Hyenas

outer wave
#

Let's make our own Hyenas....

queen laurel
#

Like Thrones of decay which is good but that's not enough

celest dome
#

Hyena is due to TW already dying on their own

queen laurel
#

It's going to take them a good amount of time before they can win their place back

outer wave
#

ToD was a great start for them

#

Plus the additions to SoC helped

queen laurel

yeah

queen laurel
celest dome
#

The community has been shrinking because no new player come and the old ones want games that don't interest outsiders

outer wave
#

I should probably try another Ku'Gath campaign

queen laurel
#

The prices you will have to spend just to get every single faction

outer wave
#

Yeah it's very much nickel and diming folks

celest dome
#

I'm speaking about the Total War community, not the warhammer ones

queen laurel
celest dome
#

The issue isn't dlc following dlc, people love the dlc

queen laurel
#

But I think it's the price that really drives people away

#

Ohh you like the skaven well too bad since you don't have this DLC you don't have their OP range power

celest dome
#

The problem is the core TW fans want games that don't interest player since the early 2000

queen laurel
#

Ohh you want to play a monster heavy army in skaven and we're too bad you don't have this DLC that adds monsters

celest dome
#

Empire 3 ? Medival 2 ?
I wouldn't buy those

outer wave
#

Neither would I tbh

queen laurel
#

I only bought Total War warhammer 3

outer wave
#

I quite frankly don't care for historical Total War

queen laurel
#

Because historical Total War seems more niche

celest dome
#

Historical is dying, and good for it

queen laurel
#

like i often don't hear about it

#

Warhammer is so popular it basically outshines the damn thing

outer wave
#

You hear about it a bit on Total War subreddit

#

And steam discussions

celest dome
#

I do hope they do a Fantasy TW set on LotR and one set around Mythology, but without trying to attrack the Historical players

queen laurel
gentle drift
#

that's good general advice

outer wave
#

Probably for the best

small epoch
#

If they do it well, which I think they'd dedicate alot to titles like those.

storm jungle
#

They are a bit dumb

#

But not that dumb yeah

#

the problem is everyone likes total war for warhammer now instead of history

celest dome
#

Even before Warhammer game started the Historical side was becoming smaller

storm jungle
#

Yeah as much as people may not like it, them investing in Warhammer more or less skyrocketed the studio

queen laurel
small epoch
#

Since I was 13 and playing the original Rome, all I could think about was how perfect Warhammer and Total War would be together.

#

When they finally did that it was a dream come true.

#

And they did it so well.

queen laurel
#

Without original fantasy total war was the next best thing

orchid lark

History is for nerds

Shogun 2 is so god damn good

yeah I would like to see people in robes and sticks fighting eachother

green loom
#

The Total Warhammers are pretty crazy as far as games go

celest dome

Which to me look like the type of leaps that studio do as baroud d'honneur/death throes

#

Trying to save itself by doing something that is relatively impossible but if it work...

queen laurel
celest dome
#

Very much

#

But in any case they should invest in it

#

While they can keep entrances with the dlc in

arctic talon

Something with so much shooting

#

The current engine cannot bear it

queen laurel

at least

Skryre vs wood elves

Do you hear it burning

Total war 3’s engine screams

Well it can handle a unit of rattling guns lol

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Yea

queen laurel
#

as of right now it's holding

arctic talon
#

Either way I’m still of the opinion total war formula doesn’t fit 40K

#

Regarding the like

#

RTS portion

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

TWW3

#

Lol

#

Napoleon is also pretty range heavy iirc

queen laurel
#

Like across all Total War games

arctic talon
#

I mean yeah

#

I can’t think of many total war games where you’re this spoiled for choice

#

On options to shoot people

queen laurel
small epoch
#

I think they could do a 40k game, it'd just be a far removal from what they've always done. But gotta change it up sooner or later.

#

I think it could work though.

arctic talon
#

Well it wouldn’t be total war

#

Is my point

#

Or at least the same “formula” for the rts portion

queen laurel
#

I can't imagine trying to run a bad moons ork faction

arctic talon
#

Bruh the engine would collapse from any 40K faction that isn’t daemons

#

Also there’s no melee line troops

#

In 40K generally

queen laurel
#

And the purely melee units have a lot of toughness

#

And more capable of eating so much fire that it's hilarious

arctic talon
#

Boyz and Assault ints still got guns

#

And they can’t do the thing where they’re either in gun mode or melee

#

Like with kislev

queen laurel
queen laurel
#

It's literally very hard to make a total war 40k work

celest dome
queen laurel
#

Because you're going to focus a lot of your balancing on range

arctic talon
#

It wouldn’t resemble what we know as total war

#

Tbh

queen laurel
#

Yeah

arctic talon
queen laurel
#

It would be its own genre i think

arctic talon
#

Your marines aren’t gona be in nice formations

queen laurel
#

Or a separate series away from total war

arctic talon
#

Neither are eldar

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Or like guard even

#

Blob

#

Nids lol

queen laurel
#

All armed to the teeth would specific weaponry

#

Yeah like

#

Making an rts game in 40k needs you to account for the way that battles work

#

In the setting

#

That's why dawn of war was so successful

#

It was not the most accurate but it was accurate enough

celest dome
#

Sega has Relic, they should do a 40k game again tbh
Or Worlds Edge

queen laurel
#

Yep

#

They already did something amazing with total war maybe they can try again

arctic talon

Company of heros 40K

#

Total war AoS is literally the easiest slam dunk lol

#

Just have it set in one of the realms that’s absolutely horrid

queen laurel
#

I guess

celest dome
#

Way to early, both due to TWW3 and to AoS still being quite young
But Age of Age of Sigmar, that would work quite well

queen laurel
#

And i'm going to be honest the faction variety from orders work well

#

Like even orruks you can play differently

#

You want a stealthy army you can be cruel with the kruleboyz

#

You want to punch through a line of armored warriors easily the iron jawz got you covered

arctic talon
#

Every grand alliance has a warriors of chaos equivalent lol

queen laurel
#

Do you want to combine both and somehow act insane

celest dome
queen laurel
#

Bonesplitterz

arctic talon
#

Stormcast, warriors of chaos, ossiarchs, iron jawz

queen laurel
#

I think the only faction they will have travel implementing would be the sons of bahamat

#

But they could work as some kind of mercenary system

celest dome
#

Boneslitters don't exist anymore KEKW_ogryn

arctic talon

Just implement it raw

#

Would be funny as shit

arctic talon

arctic talon

They got discontinued mini wise

They still exist lore wise

a ton of stuff did

Yes, Sons of Behemat being a Horde faction that is way difficult but doesn't have regular units, but instead having loads of heroes

It seems that's their way of doing stuff in aos

The elf Phoenix conclave is fucking dead

Oh beaut

though GW seemed to have made their scheme "edgier" lol

They just look like silver boys instead of the typical gold really

Dont really see the edge on them

arctic talon

I should specify on the minis

#

they have a much less vibrant gold now

outer wave
#

Ahhh

arctic talon
#

same with in the new art

#

not that I mind

#

also ironically lore wise the Hallowed Knights are much nicer then the current poster child faction

#

even if they look a lot less heroic

outer wave
#

Hell yeah

arctic talon
#

also personally I think another reason why they're shifting from Hammers of Sigmar as the poster child faction is because they're also gold and blue while ultramarines are blue and gold

outer wave
#

Honestly for the better

#

The more they get away from the Ultramarine colors, the less likely people will associate them with Space Marines

crystal forum

would fall in line with typical GW stuff

tough haven

Essentially “oh so the warp functions on belief?” “Well I don’t.”

Daemons actively avoid him because they are creatures of stories, and he denies them that

He’s a wild card, beholden to no one, and I think that makes him interesting

Yeah it's an actually cool atheist character in a high fantasy sci fi setting

# tough haven What are y’all’s thoughts on Fabius bile?

Does anyone know how strong troll regeneration is in fantasy? I know it's strong enough to work against stomach acid, but would that imply that it can grow a new body or at least a whole new limb?

It literally takes burning them completely just to get rid of them

So it can grow a whole new troll?
