Doesn't he also show up in the Damocles books

tough haven
#

Yep

#

And I thought he just got a recent one

green loom
#

Yeah, in Arks

#

Alongside his fancier misle

tough haven
#

Inquisition first though

#

I thought this was recent

fallen plaza
#

That old 8th ed logo oof

dusk patrol
#

No it’s been years since GRRM wrote that

storm jungle
#

back in my day...

storm jungle
#

SHUT UP

fallen plaza
#

Womp womp

#

I never could vibe with the Tau. They just feel so out of place with everything else.

storm jungle
#

Thats because you've been conditioned to see everything in gothic

celest dome
#

SM feel more out of place staregryn

storm jungle
#

we also got space orks

#

and space elves

green loom
#

You're at a small mall with many shops but the largest is the hot topic

storm jungle
#

LOL

#

I enjoy the story about the Tau examining a dreadnaught and finding out that:

  1. There's a person in there and
  2. He's older than their entire civilization
storm jungle
#

its a very "recent" change, only got done with 9th edition

storm jungle
paper haven
#

I'm gonna be honest, I didn't even know they changed the logo

storm jungle
#

because thats about as much as it matters

storm jungle
paper haven
#

It's hard to say which faction I know the least about. Tau, Eldar or Necron

storm jungle
#

always good to explore

green loom
#

Very much so

#

Also I heard the new Lelith book isnt bad

paper haven
#

It's on the list I swear but I'm still trying to get through the Horus heresy.

storm jungle
#

lmao

#

long way to go

#

So generals in the guard can retire, can inquisitors do that?

storm jungle
#

Inquisitors can also maybe pick up pencil-pusher positions when they become old enough like a Grandmaster

paper haven
storm jungle
#

most live and die on the job

green loom

#

I figured

storm jungle
#

love Brooks

tough haven
#

Or I guess just one grey knight

green loom
#

Actually I'm not sure I can send this here

paper haven
#

Look, the Tau are not the biggest problem at the moment

crisp heath
#

Inquisitors be like “I’m gonna do a bunch of heretical stuff to kill a bigger foe so it’s fine”

dusk patrol
#

Cause ice and fire

#

GRRM

#

I’m surrounded by imbeciles!

crisp heath
#

“Yet”

dusk patrol
#

No

tough haven
#

Other times it isn’t

celest dome
#

Ice and Fire isn't the best thing Martins has written

crisp heath
#

Tau gonna make a giant cannon that makes black holes and doom the galaxy

tough haven
#

Especially when “heresy” can be the smallest most common sense shit

celest dome
#

Personally

crisp heath
#

Like the necrons feared with their super tech

paper haven
#

Plus, they're gonna have some tyrannid issues pretty soon so I imagine the Tau question will solve itself.

crisp heath
#

It’s for the greater good of course

tough haven
#

It was iffy at times but ok

celest dome
#

(Song of) Ice and Fire is GoT

#

Are we really doing this?

dusk patrol

I just need to make a whole flow chart for my jokes

TLDR: it isn't going to win any competitive games.

paper haven
#

Welp time to buy in.

green loom
#

Oh so the generic classes in SM2 have names

#

The tactical is Valius, the Sniper is Scipius

storm jungle
#

Guys im in a game but uh

paper haven
#

Names for the classes? Or the class is a charact- ok

storm jungle
#

draw and quarter Cacti for me for that statement

#

im doing penances atm

#

that's not what vindicare do

paper haven
#

Punisher is Gatling cannon right?

crystal forum
#

yes

dusk patrol
#

Well it’s more like

green loom
#

No the Punisher is a comic character

crystal forum
#

executioner is plasma cannon

#

exterminator is double autocannon

dusk patrol
#

No Executioner is a different comic character

crystal forum
#

yes these names are confusing

dusk patrol
#

Man Jay is dumb

#

Keeps mixing up comics with his tanks

crystal forum
#

lov me tank

green loom
winter vessel
#

Eversor is “i am become bomb”

paper haven
#

To be fair to Jay, I do not know what all the tank types are unless I'm looking at a picture.

dusk patrol
#

Mfw I’m an Eversor

crystal forum
#

there's also annihilator which is a rare double las cannon variant

#

(has no rules currently)

dusk patrol
#

Imagine knowing the Russ Variants when the Baneblade ones are all that matters

paper haven
#

Eversors get the best job

dusk patrol
#

Behold, my Baneblade only list

#

It has three baneblades

paper haven
#

All they do is kill things and nap.

crystal forum
#

stormhammer best variant

paper haven
#

Then explode

dusk patrol
#

Shadowsword

crystal forum
#

wait not stormhammer

#

damn it which one is the battle bus variant again

paper haven
#

Isn't there a bane blade varient that is basically a massive troop transport?

crystal forum
#

yes

#

storm something

paper haven
#

I like that one

dusk patrol
paper haven
#

Nice try

crystal forum
#

yes stormlord

#

very funny variant

dusk patrol
crystal forum
#

not very good on tabletop but very funny

paper haven
#

That's a tyrannid you can't fool me- oh wait that's actually its name

dusk patrol
#

Everybody gets a bolt shell

crystal forum
#

i think that's a titan sized gun too

dusk patrol
#

Nah

#

A little below

#

Hurricane bolters I believe

winter vessel
#

Yeah, I look at Stormlord and it looks like something I’d see straight out of the Metal Slug Videogames

dusk patrol
#

Mega bolter is the titan one

crystal forum
#

vulcan mega bolter

#

it literally is a titan gun

dusk patrol
#

It’s both pro and anti infantry

green loom
#

Straight out of foxhole

crystal forum
#

pats stormlord
this thing can kill so many cultists!

storm jungle
green loom
#

Hey Jay it's the HIC

crystal forum
#

shut the fuck up

green loom
paper haven
#

Yes I would like a tank but built like those early WW1 tanks and super big like the biggest it can get

crystal forum
dusk patrol
#

Mfw there’s a titan whose up to no good, causing a ruckus in my neighborhood

crystal forum
#

shadowsword my beloved

#

when the guard has had ENOUGH of those titans over yonder

dusk patrol
#

CHOOOOOOMM

paper haven
#

It got in one little fight and its mom got scared

dusk patrol
#

Volcano cannon go BEEEEOOOOWWW

fifteen minute recharge time as the vehicle shuts down from power loss

paper haven
#

Seems like a design flaw

crystal forum
#

at least you damaged the void shield of that titan

dusk patrol
#

Well it’s a fucking Titan gun

crystal forum
#

oh wait it's aiming at us now

dusk patrol
#

It’s as small as they could make it

#

There’s a reason they work in packs

paper haven
#

Maybe don't put Titan guns on tanks then

dusk patrol
#

Or with other support who can hurt the titan after its shield is down

crystal forum
#

it's rare to just see 1 baneblade

paper haven
#

Put tank guns on tanks

dusk patrol
crystal forum
#

only big regiments can even afford these things

paper haven
#

But better tank guns

dusk patrol
#

That’s what it does

#

Other tank guns don’t cut it for titan shield popping

crystal forum
#

if militarum had access to titans they wouldn't be using shadowswords

#

but noooo

dusk patrol
#

Also baneblades don’t last long

#

Rarely they have void shields

#

But mostly they need to be able to take that one powerful shot

paper haven
#

Ok but can't a titan still fire with it's shields down?

crystal forum
#

yes

dusk patrol
#

That’s why you work in tandem

crystal forum
#

also titans dont usually work alone either

dusk patrol
#

There’s a Shadowsword formation called Titankiller I think

crystal forum
#

the shadowsword is uh not a very useful tank

dusk patrol
#

Where they quickly chain the shots to break it’s shield and destroy it

#

Plus

#

It can fuck up anything below that

paper haven
#

Explain shadow sword again?

dusk patrol
#

Volcano cannons kinda ignore things like cover

crystal forum
#

but on the plus side if you see a chaos rhino and you have a shadowsword doing nothing

dusk patrol
#

Aka a titan gun

#

It can one shot other baneblades or land raiders or whatever easy

#

It just takes forever to recharge between shots

paper haven
#

The Titan gun that forces the tank to shut down after every shot?

crystal forum
#

it can penetrate like 3 leman russes at a time lol

#

also energy weapon so no ammo requirements which isnt much in 40k but is a pretty cool advantage if you care about that

paper haven
#

The fourth lemon Russ will be able to get off a ton of shots though

dusk patrol
#

It’s a sniper tank

crystal forum
#

it's still a baneblade

#

it can tank shots

Is the city of dust linked to the desolate city?

#

Anyone getting the new exorcists book

dusk patrol

Also it can be like

#

Miles away

dusk patrol
crystal forum
#

also remember it has sponson laser cannons

dusk patrol
#

Although I doubt it’s gonna be good

paper haven
#

I assumed it was miles away

dusk patrol
crystal forum
#

my advice is to never buy a shadowsword model

#

like you'd be dumb to buy one

paper haven
#

I'm gonna buy one

crystal forum
#

(print it)

dusk patrol
#

It’s a cool idea in lore

#

On table top though….

remote widget
dusk patrol
#

Just not clear if it’s connected

crystal forum
#

i dont think the baneblade has ever been relevant in tabletop is the funny thing

#

it's just a cool model

Blood of Iax

White Scars 40k stuff

#

Just idk not the best

#

But I like Exorcists and he does do pretty good at adding lore to the chapters he does so

#

I’ll get it for that

#

Hopefully it’s good or at least fine

green loom
#

Shrimphammer

paper haven
#

Well tabletop battles are super close range, right?

#

Bane blades would be at an inherent disadvantage because of their cost and the fact that everyone can shoot at it

fallen plaza
#

At the points your playing, probably playing mid to long

dusk patrol
#

It’s more their rules are kinda meh

#

And they’re expensive

fallen plaza
#

Basically, dont trust GW to make big units good

dusk patrol
#

Same issue as titans on a lesser scale

#

And other super heavies

#

Like the Astraeus

#

They’re cool but yeah not many people get them

fallen plaza
#

That reminds me, what the hell is the big FW votann explorer vehicle supposed to do in the game? Is it like a transport or something?

#

I dont know the rules for it

crystal forum
#

artillery firing point blank range

dusk patrol
#

And clearing Aliens for Lego Mission to Mars games

fallen plaza
#

Its such a weird and wonderful vehicle

#

Its a good mechanicum vehicle proxy

crystal forum
#

votaan vehicles are quite funny yes

fallen plaza
#

I checked, its not votann, its a squat

#

Probably why its so cool

fallen plaza
#

No

dusk patrol
#

Oh that

fallen plaza
#

This, the skalvian explorator

crystal forum
#

ive never seen it before

fallen plaza
#

Its a pretty sick vehicle

crystal forum
#

looks much better than current votann vehicles

fallen plaza
#

Ikr thas what im sayin

crystal forum
#

wheres all the weapons though

#

i only see a grabby claw and a single turret

fallen plaza
#

Thats it

crystal forum
#

can models shoot out of it

fallen plaza
#

As far as i can tell maybe

#

Thats why i was asking for its rules in the first place, because if you look at the back it doesn’t even transport troops

crystal forum
#

genuinely looks like something i'd expect dark age humanity to use

fallen plaza
#

It doesnt look out of place in a 30k mechanicum army too

#

It fact its very much at home with them

crystal forum
#

where does this model even come from

#

oh it's necromunda?

fallen plaza
crystal forum
#

that looks sick

fallen plaza
#

Out of production though unfortunately

#

Although the files are plentiful….

crystal forum
#

is it mechanicus?

fallen plaza
#

Yee

arctic talon
#

I forgot it’s name

fallen plaza
#

Macrocarid explorator

arctic talon
#

Yeah that

#

Fun fact it was only in production for a short while

#

For reasons beyond my comprehension

fallen plaza
# fallen plaza

I was mentioning it because it would look great next to this

#

Or as a proxy

arctic talon
#

Oh

#

Yeah def

fallen plaza
#

Although personally, ive seen plenty of files for the macrocarid for me to pass on it as a proxy….

Oh goddamit its in a white dwarf isn’t it

#

Hey, retagged the recap in case any of you missed the long topic discussion I've been having for the past 2 weeks or so.....
Anyway I want to wrap this up, before I get to work.

#

First things first:
Mutant knowledge/lore crash course.
With the known list of Abhumans. I want to know about the relatively popular Abhumans, (except psykers they're another whole can of worms to deal with, later), so the crash questions I'm asking for each "Muta_, I mean Abhumans is:
• Where did they come from, or what kind of environment they're relatively found?
• How long have we known them, if like they're a new strain
• Fun facts about them
• They're usefulness to the Imperium
• Is there any Legendary Abhumans to note of.

#

.....

fallen plaza
#

🍎

wraith quartz
#

......
So starting from the list I know of:
Ogryns I want to know more about them.

arctic talon
#

what about them

#

they're bigger, stronger, not as intellegent(though its unclear if this is from the imperium doing so or if they're actually less intelligent its most likely a mix of both)

#

Ogryns got discovered during the great crusade

#

they're useful because they're strong and easy to manipulate

outer wave
#

Ogryns are the result of humans beings being stranded for around 10k years or so on high gravity worlds

#

Which doesnt make much sense but lets ignore that

#

They're humans that have developed a stronger sense of survival and musculature in compensation for less brainpower for more abstract thought like arithmetic and sciences

#

As a result, they struggle with complicated orders or thinking higher than "What to eat today?" or "How do I survive today?" or "Is that danger?"

#

There are 7 subspecies of ogryns according to Lexicanum: (copied straight from the page) Alpha, Theta, Type IV, Type VIIa, H.S. gigantus gigantus, H.S. gigantus Cranopus, and the mysterious Grey Ogryns

#

As to whats the most common subspecies of ogryn is, we're not sure

wraith quartz
#

Hmmmm loregryn

dusk patrol
#

40k ogres basically

wraith quartz
#

So is there a Legendary Orgryn?

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

#

Nork Deddog

wraith quartz
#

What makes him so special?

#

Outside the title of "Legendary" of course

dusk patrol
#

Ogryn Prodigy

outer wave
#

According to the codexes, can count up to 4 which is a feat amongst ogryns

wraith quartz
dusk patrol
#

Head butted an Ork Warboss and killed him

#

He’s known to be an exceptional bodyguard

queen laurel
#

Yeah but hilariously ogryns in dark tide rival or are basically smarter than him

dusk patrol
#

He’s basically just the Ogryniest Ogryn

winter vessel
# dusk patrol

The only time I've ever seen an Ogryn with a Cigar in his mouth, Nork is badass

outer wave
#

They still struggle to count past 4

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

They’re still dumb

#

Nork is dumb but he’s capable like the rest

#

Also there’s a level of gameplay mechanics to the ones we play like with the reloading

#

Which in lore Ogryns struggle a lot more with

#

But that’s kinda shit for a game

queen laurel
#

Yeah but bully like literally figured out the water cartel scheme of denying water

#

That's good enough for me

dusk patrol
#

Also all of them being able to use the nade gauntlet

wraith quartz
#

Hmmm, Interesting loregryn

fallen plaza
wraith quartz
#

Do most Ogryns try to look up to him, (in terms of inspiration)

fallen plaza
#

Most dialogue is non canonical in the game

dusk patrol
#

He’s a legendary figure to them

dusk patrol
#

They mention him in game

queen laurel
#

But physically speaking he's not that all different

#

So a random ogryn from nowhere can still perform his feats of physical strength

outer wave
#

They just need the proper scenario to happen

dusk patrol
#

Not necessarily

#

He’s known to be exceptional even for Ogryns

#

He’s highly sought after as a bodyguard

wraith quartz
#

So the rat-things "best snipers of Guard" (Cap, I say). What are they?

dusk patrol
#

Most Ogryns aren’t headbutting warbosses and winning

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

Hell most Ogryns aren’t even that capable in combat

queen laurel
#

In the physical strength department not on skill or intelligence

dusk patrol
#

They’re strong but he’s meant to be an extreme

queen laurel
#

I'm just saying that a random ogreen can basically do what he did because physically speaking he didn't get changed much other than the brain implant

storm jungle
#

also like

dusk patrol
#

Nork is literally in universe said to be this

storm jungle
#

realistically speaking an entire sub-species of humans all having the brain of a child is a bit stupid lol

dusk patrol
#

It’s not wanked, it’s lore

storm jungle
#

its really not

dusk patrol
#

It is

storm jungle
#

down to like "genius because he can count"

storm jungle
#

also like hes an old character with barely any lore

#

this game is probably the biggest exploration we get into ogryns in general in comparison

outer wave
#

Thank god for that

dusk patrol
#

Books go more into it tbh

storm jungle
#

Not really

#

"they're dumb"

dusk patrol
#

Especially crime

storm jungle
#

and it kinda stops there

queen laurel
#

Yeah so why stick to the bland dumb ones

#

If we can have the more interesting ones we can have

outer wave
#

I find the Bodyguard's whole "Sky God" thing for the God Emperor to be cool and interesting

storm jungle
#

okay but Crime's one is a literal philosopher

outer wave
#

They got religion!

storm jungle
#

thats Brawler lol

queen laurel
#

Yeah you want the most ogryn go for brawler

dusk patrol
#

They’re really dumb that doesn’t mean they’re brain dead, they’re simple and not capable of certain things well

storm jungle
#

your common ogryn would look at the Torrent and not even figure out what the water cartel is doing, meanwhile Bully figures it out like instantly

fallen plaza
#

Brawler is very smart thank you very much

dusk patrol
#

Counting being one that they struggle with

#

And writing

#

They have ability in other areas

storm jungle
#

Ehhh kinda

outer wave
storm jungle
#

the thing is them being mentally restricted is a purposeful thing

#

as they basically got the mind of kids

#

they can learn

queen laurel
#

Yeah but the thing is they have intelligence that you can teach them other skills in, the imperium literally just gives them the bear essentials and you know lets them go to town

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

There’s literally no evidence of that

storm jungle
#

hes suppose to be the generic ogryn

storm jungle
outer wave
#

I cant believe we're returning to this conversation

storm jungle
#

same

winter vessel
#

I like Bodyguard Ogryn persona

storm jungle
#

literally just

dusk patrol
#

They have cognitive difficulties

storm jungle
queen laurel
storm jungle
#

and we dont really know how deep it goes if its a mental issue or a nurture one

winter vessel
storm jungle
#

it also largely comes from a lack of lore in general

wraith quartz
storm jungle
#

so just pointing to extremely outdated or just rare examples and presenting them as the norm is a bit eh

dusk patrol
#

I’ll make this easy then, find me literally any lore that they’re held back cognitively intentionally

storm jungle
#

Im not talking about lore im talking about common sense lol

#

like how the fuck can an entire sub-species of humans just be "stupid"

#

because plot?

queen laurel
#

Yeah warhammer is a bit all over the place but a bit of common sense applied here in there doesn't hurt

dusk patrol
#

So yeah there isn’t any

outer wave
storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Like the lore literally says this

storm jungle
#

and this game is written by Black Library writers

winter vessel
# wraith quartz A bit

K think that, but they’re thieves, kinda act cocky, and boy do they love food. But Ratlings are very good marksmen

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

They’re literally said directly to be cognitively impaired as a group

storm jungle
dusk patrol
fallen plaza
outer wave
#

Isnt there the whole thing with the codexes being written in the Imperium's POV?

storm jungle
wraith quartz
#

So they're very much physically stunted?

storm jungle
#

idk why people argue against this so much

#

lol

dusk patrol
#

Because this is made up stuff you’re saying

fallen plaza
#

Literally mentioned by the community manager this is so

dusk patrol
#

Like Ogryns as a concept as very clear

winter vessel
# wraith quartz So they're very much physically stunted?

Yeah, they don’t have the physique of a squat, but about the same height. And I’ve always seen them bare foot, so halflings are in full reference right there. They also have a tendency of procuring non-standard issue stuff.

dusk patrol
#

This is just fanfiction

rose thorn
# storm jungle

Oh I remember bag lmao, tbh they both don’t look great but the new one looks scifi

dusk patrol
#

Also GW wouldn’t be shy on jsut

#

Having this be a thing

#

If it was

#

It’s not like they don’t have Ogryns be treated like shit

fallen plaza
# storm jungle Where

I’ll bring up a screencap, but this was in the context of verm and how chronicles are the only things canon

dusk patrol
#

The Imperium has also been shown to invest heavily in trying to make Ogryns smarter

wraith quartz
#

So are there other uses outside of sniping and stealing?

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Clever, small

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Good at cooking

winter vessel
dusk patrol
#

Good snipers often

#

Fixers

arctic talon
#

They have very good eyes

#

and hand eye coordination

storm jungle
#

because again going by the ogryn logic this applies to their entire race for uh "lore reasons"

wraith quartz
#

I see loregryn

fallen plaza
# storm jungle So its not even related to darktide

I assume your being dense on purpose just to be funny but i’ll humor you, since this is mostly how a lot of the story has to be communicated since GW is very finnicky with things, this isnt just a verm thing, this is how they work

dusk patrol
arctic talon
#

I don't like how they're barefoot

#

its like

#

so weird I don't like it lol

dusk patrol
#

Space Hobbits bitch

outer wave
dusk patrol
#

Shoes are for nerds

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

battlefields are disgusting

wraith quartz
#

Are there any relatively known hobbits or whatever they're called, like famous or infamous...

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

I do not want to imagine

dusk patrol
#

Iirc they do have very tough feet

rose thorn
#

Both 40k and aos hates halfling

winter vessel
#

Ratlings would have this kind of tendency when it comes to their own lives, or others. 🤣

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

At least halflings had the reward of being the worst faction in bloodbowl

arctic talon
wraith quartz
storm jungle
#

Uh

dusk patrol
#

Ratlings generally do pretty well in the guard

storm jungle
#

just for the game

arctic talon
#

At least on the Precipice yes

storm jungle
#

and thats kind of it

arctic talon
#

in universe no

#

lol

dusk patrol

# queen laurel That explains your point of view of ogryns

It’s not my opinion, it’s literally the only consistent portrayal and description of Ogryns we’ve gotten from games workshop since their inception and appearance across all codex’s in 40k, 30k, Necromunda, RPGs, and books.

@fallen plaza @storm jungle on cannonocity of tides game. I had at some point asked what could be considered cannon and what couldn't at Hedge.
Basically what he explained wast that anything they featured had to be in a way possible or plausible.
An example for Vt2 was being able to kill Chaos Spawn and other monster. Those are things that the U5 could lorewise kill.
But for gameplay reasons they appear much more often than they would in stories.
