Some more so

[small grail]

hm

[paper haven]

They did not handle the death of their primarch well.

[small grail]

did not is an understatement

[paper stirrup]

I mean yeah if someone killed my demigod dad I would be pretty pissed too

[dusk patrol]

Most legions go a little haywire when their primarch dies, it’s part of the psychic backlash they experience

[paper haven]

Pissed doesn't quite cover the emotional response.

[dusk patrol]

On Istvaan V there was an actual visible ripple that could be seen in the IH as they recoiled when he died

And then they all went berserk

[crystal forum]

must feel so empty to have the gene seed of a dead man

[dusk patrol]

It doesn’t come across as a fun experience psychologically

[small grail]

i saw a comment on a warhammer post saying "to think that the heresy cudve never happened if fulgrim just didnt say 'harder daddy' "

[small grail]

that man was loved by many i guess

[crystal forum]

do salamanders feel this every time vulkan dies

[dusk patrol]

No

Which is part of why some “knew” he was still alive

[small grail]

maybe m,aybe not

[dusk patrol]

Numeon and others questioned why they didn’t react the way the IH did when Vulkan “died”

And also they just felt he was still alive super strongly

[small grail]

thats kinda sad cuz theyd become fuckin bipolar "oh dads dead" "no wait hes back" "aww no hes dead again"

[crystal forum]

is that how space wolves feel

[dusk patrol]

I guess

Russ hasn’t died as far as we’re aware so

[small grail]

hjes just stuck like the lion i believe

but in the warp

[dusk patrol]

We don’t know anything about where he is

Magnus claims he knows

[paper stirrup]

I hope he is dead because I hate him

[dusk patrol]

But he doesn’t say

[small grail]

why so

[dusk patrol]

He is 1000% going to come back next so

My condolences

[paper stirrup]

I just think he's immature

like

[dusk patrol]

Loyalist wise that is

[paper stirrup]

oh yea I know dw lol

[crystal forum]

he might come back as older man like lion did

more mature

[small grail]

hes got loyalist armour so hes definitely comin back

[paper stirrup]

hes been in the warp so I doubt it

[small grail]

lion is way more older than russ tho ryt?

[dusk patrol]

Time goes slower and faster in the eye

There’s no rule for which

[winter vessel]

and in between

[dusk patrol]

We don’t know

[small grail]

i mean lore wise

[dusk patrol]

Once again

We don’t know

[crystal forum]

i hope he comes back as part wolf monster tho so we can get a cool model

[dusk patrol]

I would enjoy if he had two models for that

[small grail]

lot of warhammer is just fans makin theory until they wait and i aint even mad

[dusk patrol]

I want more Odin Rune Priest Russ though

[small grail]

like a werewolf mode wud be cool

[dusk patrol]

Physically not as capable as he was but a powerful psyker

[small grail]

what about perturabo

what do yal think of him

[dusk patrol]

His fanbase sucks

But he’s a fun character

Who people project onto for some reason

[winter vessel]

that's not very healthy

[small grail]

how so?

[dusk patrol]

They act like he’s some victim and most of his problems aren’t his own fault

And that he’s not his own worst enemy

[small grail]

oh wow

ive nevere seen someone contradict themselves so quickly

not u i mean the fans

[celest dome]

Like him but he is an ass, and his fanbase make it even worse.

[small grail]

damn i thought perturabos fanbase wud be better than him

[celest dome]

Iron Warrior basically try to say that Perty was right and the best Primarch. When he was mid at best. And even without a Primarch his Legion would have done better

[winter vessel]

I like the IWs, favorite Traitor Astartes faction, but I’m not gonna say Perter Turbo was flawless. He had his fair share of f ups

[outer wave]

We love Peter Turbo because as competent as he is, he's absolutely a man baby

[nocturne crest]

Can scouts who are in the Blood Angels and their successors end up serving in the Death Company?

[tough haven]

Dude, the 40K fanbase only takes the worst lessons from things

[arctic talon]

Yes

[crystal forum]

just watched iron within

i dont get the ending

why do they kill the guy who submits

also the blood angel set is already out of stock

but the french version is still there

[rocky gale]

Because the dude just gave a speech about the people being weak and needed to be made strong and the other guy then knelt

While the other told them to get lost

So the one who knelt proved he was weak, while the other proved they were strong

[tough haven]

Because he did not have iron within

[rocky gale]

Ye

[tough haven]

He’s anemic and they could smell it

So they beat him to death

[rocky gale]

Wait..

https://tenor.com/view/punisher-the-punisher-wait-no-panicking-gif-22139346

[tough haven]

(He didn’t have iron within)

Start eating metal if you want to live

[crystal forum]

so the woman then joins chaos after saying no?

it's that part i dont get

[tough haven]

I think it’s more like slave labor

https://tenor.com/view/under-new-management-more-like-under-new-management-megamind-megamind-meme-jokez_da_joke-gif-19867663

Iron within in a nutshell ^

[crystal forum]

so they actively choose slaves who want to resist them

[tough haven]

Probably

Probably makes it more fun to break them and turn that resilience to something they can use

[rocky gale]

Well knowing how cult tactics usually work, they likely got her to kill the guy who kneeled, convinced her that by kneeling he'd betrayed her and their people and that by doing so she was freeing herself.

[tough haven]

Probably also true

[crystal forum]

he did power up his power fist so

guess it's just cut too short

[rocky gale]

If I remember right she seems to be some sort of enforcer at the end

So it's likely she's still in a position of somewhat authority over the other slaves

[crystal forum]

seeing deldar getting stomped was fun tho

that battle barge which gets shot down by random projectile lol

now that i have your attention i wish to make fun of the fact that the store page on the new imperialis leman russ exterminators makes the mistake of saying they have plasma cannons

[crystal forum]

so even GW cant keep track of the leman russ variants

[shell mason]

yee

[rocky gale]

Not the one I'm looking at

Oh

Warcom

Not the Store page

[crystal forum]

yes

oops

anyways mistake made

point and laugh

the plasma version is called executioner so easily mistakable

[nocturne crest]

So I got to ask, but in a theoretical situation where the imperium defeats chaos and all the xenos in the different galaxies, could you see another universe spanning civil war happening again?

[crystal forum]

how would they defeat chaos

[arctic talon]

In this impossible theoretical situation yes

I can see civil war breaking out

[crystal forum]

no chaos means no warp issues

no warp issues means new golden age for humanity since communication is easy

[nocturne crest]

Let me just break it down to a simpler question. How fucked would the imperium be if they tried to destroy the DA,
the BA, the SW and their successors because they've killed inquisitors to cover their secrets and they ended up fighting back?

[crystal forum]

that would certainly take away a large chunk of astartes from the imperium lol

not to mention the fallout from going to war with them

[rocky gale]

I could see a major civil war occurring over tithes following the ending of all threats

[crystal forum]

i think the imperium would be very fucked

[rocky gale]

Because a lot of Governors are going to say "Hey, the galaxy isn't at war anymore, surely our tithes don't need to be so high" and the High Lords are going to reject that as a matter of principle

[nocturne crest]

Actually, have their been any other loyalists chapters that have killed inquisitors over secrets outside of those 3 mentioned above?

[crystal forum]

howling griffons in 1 specific book

[nocturne crest]

They have a secret?

[crystal forum]

not much of a secret

an inquisitor did dumb shit and pretty much asked to have them try to kill him

they didnt kill him in the end but they were actively trying

he got away

[nocturne crest]

Ah

I wonder if the ravenguard would be purged because of the Sable Brand if the inquisitors found out.

[rose thorn]

Gonna be real this is a terrible fucking pose lmao

For a model

The longer you look at the pose the more weird it feels

[queen laurel]

yeah if you're going to execute a jumping slash down you could at least make it better

the guy has wings

[rose thorn]

It doesn’t even look like he’s like

Jumping

He looks likes he’s about to fall on hide side

The shoulder pads are just wasted

His legs are in a weird spot

[queen laurel]

yeah like GW can do good jumping smash and slash downs

This feels just a bit weird

[rose thorn]

I think them putting the fight leg in thsi weird half spot is weird

And because they are in power armor they can’t give an as powerful stance

[queen laurel]

Probably

[rose thorn]

The berserker looks like he has about 3 ways to swing. It’s fluid it’s powerful and it’s pleasing

Vampire man only has like, one

[queen laurel]

Yeah the rager looks like he will absolutely deck you the space marine one looks like he's just raising his axe to show people

[rose thorn]

Rager thank you

[rose thorn]

I think if he was holding the axe in his left hand and he was swinging to his left the pose makes more sense

His legs are in that way so when he lands he turns alone

[queen laurel]

Honestly yeah i feel like a side slash would be better

[rose thorn]

And then with his other hand idk make him hold a pistol or something

[rose thorn]

The current pose is a reference to his old boomer ass model

Space marines can’t really use short two handed weapons lmao

[queen laurel]

They should have given him a different post yeah like if they're going to commit to a jumping slash at least do it better

[rose thorn]

(It might have work if he was actually fuckinh flying lmao)

Pretty sure he doenst fly though

[queen laurel]

Yeah if he had like a taller base maybe

[rose thorn]

Like at least these guy’s poses make sense

I’m mad none of them two hand any weapons but it’s fine

More spears and storm bolsters is nice

[green loom]

Lore chat I'm actually reading books now are you proud of me

[queen laurel]

You have finally evolved from the artist archetype to nerdimus the ultimate nerd

[arctic talon]

He needs to be leaning forward more imo

[arctic talon]

Yes

[rose thorn]

True

[queen laurel]

Yeah i have to admit like he looks too straight for someone about to go for the slash down kill

[rose thorn]

This guy would also be a nice AOS kit bash

Sad they refused to give him the inquisitor cod piece

They were scared

Literally this guy is a pistol away from being a Cities of sigmar model

Remove the wires on the bird, slap on make Like a carrier pigeon bag

Obviously you need to gut the inquisitor symbols

But besides that he is an awesome free guild marshal

With a bird token

[arctic talon]

Ima be real with you the new coteaz is so bad

[opaque coyote]

Okay so as a question

How many enemies does a strike team like Darktide's

Usually face

Like 30 at most probably

[arctic talon]

Are the characters named/j

Jokes aside prolly not more then 40 like actual people

[opaque coyote]

Let's say they are just

[arctic talon]

I’m not counting poxwalkers

[opaque coyote]

Random background characters

Named is our characters

[arctic talon]

Like

There’s not gona be a lot of actual people they’re fighting

A lot are gona be pox walkers and plague zombies

[opaque coyote]

Tbh I believe like

Malice is what experienced agents go through

And like the beginning difficulty is the usual missiob

[arctic talon]

Malice already has way too many shooters tbh

The Moebian sixth is a single regiment

Not even at full strength

[opaque coyote]

Yeah fair

[arctic talon]

Now then again

It could just be

A lot of cultists

[opaque coyote]

Probably that

Maybe some mobian 6th mixed in

Shit like Damnation is probably just the team over exaggerating their report

"BRO WE FACED LIKE 50 FUCKING CRUSHERS. AND THEN THERE WAS A CHAOS SPAWN"

"...Hadron you hearing this shit?"

Either that or only our team does it

Like canonically, when we get to level 30, we somehow survived so many death sentences

We actually managed to get to become an interrogator

So I believe that Damnation is probably reserved for only people like us

Who somehow overcame the odds and became killing machines

Through both luck, skill, and maybe divine intervention

You fell to the bottom but somehow climbed up to a higher place than before

[arctic talon]

Damnation is like

Genuinely impossible to survive unless you’re a named character or a pov book character lol

[opaque coyote]

I mean tbh

I think it is grimdark if "named characters" do casually exist

But they like

Have 0 impact

[arctic talon]

I mean realistically the impact they have is small

[opaque coyote]

Like we managed to kill so many cultists, poxwalkers, and Emperor knows what

[arctic talon]

They don’t change the status quo

[opaque coyote]

But Tertium is still corrupted

And we still have to go out for death sentences

...

[crystal forum]

which book

[opaque coyote]

MAINLY TO GET A WEAPON WITH 13% DAMAGE

[shell mason]

well yeah

we're repenting

[queen laurel]

Get imperium'd bozo

[opaque coyote]

"Thanks Hadron, for giving me a blessing I already have twice"

[shell mason]

in repentance there is death

in death forgiveness

in forgiveness, absolution

[opaque coyote]

Imagine if our character somehow survives it all.

They become a inquistor

[crystal forum]

normal human power armour never gets old

[shell mason]

that would be their prestige

[opaque coyote]

Makes me wish we got like

A regiment of guardsmen that all use PA

[shell mason]

or truly grimdark

get mind wipe and told to do it again

[crystal forum]

even scions dont use PA

[opaque coyote]

Exactly

There's just some planet that got like an STC that makes PA.

They just casually hide it

[shell mason]

that would be fucked

[opaque coyote]

"look we make good soldiers, just shut up"

[shell mason]

yee

don't question it

[crystal forum]

kitting out like 1000 troops with power armour would probably raise a few flags somewhere

[opaque coyote]

What if that happens whenever we make a new character

Oh god

Eh probably not

[shell mason]

Sound like something that would lead to a traitor warband

[opaque coyote]

But it would be funny

[shell mason]

go funny human to ogryn

[opaque coyote]

Definitely

They'd probably have like a deal with the Mechanicus or something

[crystal forum]

even mechanicus doesnt have access to consistent power armour

[arctic talon]

The flak armor van saar uses is powered lol

[opaque coyote]

"Listen, we will give you the STC if you just shut the fuck u-"

[crystal forum]

powered flak armour sounds like some bootleg shit

[arctic talon]

It’s got a fancy hud

And uh

It’s marginally more protective

[opaque coyote]

Tbf Flak is durable

The problem is that it often survives past it's users

[crystal forum]

flak is not durable

[shell mason]

I mean saying you have a STC would most likely get you killed in 40k

[opaque coyote]

Well durable for being mass produced and given to every single guardsman

It isn't durable for the grand scheme of things ofc

[arctic talon]

Van Saar has some fancy ass flak armor

[opaque coyote]

But from our standards, it's probably better than any kevlar we can make

Or just

[arctic talon]

and tbh

[opaque coyote]

Armor in general

[crystal forum]

probably plutonium powered or some shit too

[arctic talon]

they're fighting genestealers right now

literally no armor is gona fucking help you

LOL

[crystal forum]

radiation sickness is temporary i swear

[arctic talon]

It is for the mechanicus

[crystal forum]

you build a tolerance to the ionizing radiation

[arctic talon]

It sure as shit isn’t for van Saar though

[crystal forum]

STC, give me guns

outputs slingshots that shoot plasma

[arctic talon]

two young Van Saar gangers in their late 20's full of life

[crystal forum]

what's the avatar thing

[shell mason]

pale skin

[crystal forum]

also those are some fancy lasguns god damn

[arctic talon]

no clue ngl, I'd assume its some sort of data spike

[opaque coyote]

I find it funny that Genestealers mainly fight with mining tools.

And my mind is just thinking of them playing Minecraft

[arctic talon]

and just like any actual gang they need silly naming conventions

[opaque coyote]

They just have a custom server

[crystal forum]

that's the cult, the genestealers cut you in half with their big meaty claws

[opaque coyote]

Where they play Minecraft

[opaque coyote]

Yeah I think usually 2nd Gen use mining laser cause 4 arms

While 3rd and 4th use regular weapons

Cause they're more human

And less strong

Also again

Imagine a Genestealer cult has like

A fucking discord server

They do Esports to pass the time

They are "weirdly coordinated" for some reason

Actually does 40k even have video games

[arctic talon]

gsc mf'ers

[arctic talon]

prolly

[opaque coyote]

It's weird to imagine like

Sisters of Battle playing video games in their spare time

Actually it would be funny

Just imagine the SoB gaming group unintentionally fight a Genestealer Cult Gaming group

"WHY ARE THEY SO COORDINATED?"

"WE NEED TO PLANT THE BOMB AT B, FOR THE EMPEROR!"

[arctic talon]

I doubt anything works across planets

[opaque coyote]

Yeah ik

Just imagine they're on like

The same planet

Actually imagine there are just planets that are like

The equivalent to a giant internet cafe

Like it's a type of paradise planet

The gaming planets

Bro imagine somebody falling to Khorne because they raged too hard at a video game

[crystal forum]

i just realized the entire blood angel box is melee

that's funny

do blood angel players just really like vampires

[arctic talon]

They like jump packs and melee

[opaque coyote]

And also vampires

[arctic talon]

Yes

And angels

[opaque coyote]

Jump pack futuristic PA wearing homoerotic vampires

[late osprey]

ive got to be the only blood angel'er alive that hates the vampire aspect

well, 'hate' is a strong word

[arctic talon]

Dislike?

Not prefer?

[late osprey]

my favorite part of them is the ANGEL part more than anything

the full on angel wings with the classical aesthetic and everything is so badass

[plush mason]

ngl "vampire angel" kinda goes hard

[late osprey]

my homebrew has the vampire part mysteriously cleansed (like the lamenters)

[near ermine]

"Yeah, I'll have the Blood Angels, hold the Black Rage, thanks."

[late osprey]

🤓 acksyhually, the black rage is a completely different and unrelated mutation that the blood angels have

red thirst is the vampirism

(the blood angels are not very creative at naming their mutations)

[shell mason]

got some sleep

[shell mason]

mood

[shell mason]

Clash of kings

[rose thorn]

I think it’s just really genetic, take it how you want

Honestly I don’t I think it would be that hard to pose him like his old model

[shell mason]

Man the space marine 2 steam forums are a mess

Very familiar to how Darktide's steam forums were for a good while

[celest dome]

What kind of messes ? Any fun one ?

[queen laurel]

it's space marine fans so probably a horde of people more aggressive than norscans

[outer wave]

There's a couple ones talking about female presets or SoB and you know how that goes

[queen laurel]

yeah guessed that right

[outer wave]

Its so bad

"Guh, I cant believe you beta soy boy cucks would want BLACK people to be a space marine. Keep that shit in the bedroom!!"

SPACE MARINES

Lol

I love gamers

[outer wave]

Bro really doesnt like Africans

[gray umbra]

His fucking name

Looted air jordans

Sneakerhead

Name checks out

Sneakerheads are r@tards

[celest dome]

Like having SoB class ? Could be fun tbh.
But Chaplain would make more sense for faith thingy

[outer wave]

Yeah I think SoB would kinda take away from being a space marine

[queen laurel]

it's a game called space marine 2, that's like going to the speed freek discord and say just add looted vehicles

[celest dome]

Ok

That's not what I though the SoB thread would be about

[queen laurel]

just keep it space marines honestly

[outer wave]

Yeah its uh wack

[celest dome]

I mean, looted vehicles make sense for Speed Freeks

[queen laurel]

yeah it would be fun but reasoning with GW would be a whole ballpark

[celest dome]

Like a better comparison might be saying we need Digganobz in Speed Freeks

[queen laurel]

oh yeah that

[storm jungle]

oh my god the fuck am I rading

[queen laurel]

people really want that

[storm jungle]

actual text vomit that post

[outer wave]

I actually didnt read it myself lmao

I just saw the first paragraph and went "Ah..."

Scrolled through the comments and yeah cesspit

[queen laurel]

Yeah but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't mind if I eat you alive as a cactus for soup

[celest dome]

Oh for sure

[rocky gale]

"I'm sure most folks here know what the Irish are referred to as in Europe..." the fuck is that supposed to mean?

[queen laurel]

i have seen some arguments in my life but these ones genuinely baffling

it's just a flash bang of words just to try and make you believe they're right

[outer wave]

At one point in time IIRC, the British considered Irish people of not being white and I think implying they were brown/black

Its heinous but its also a time where tensions between the two were really high

[tough haven]

https://tenor.com/view/slimecicle-cute-slimecicle-charlie-slimecicle-charlie-pink-gif-1864332752573050545

[rocky gale]

As an Irish person I'm aware of that

[outer wave]

Ahh my bad

I didnt realize you were Irish

[rocky gale]

But he's making out that Irish people are despised across Europe

[outer wave]

Yeaaaah not sure where that comes from

[tough haven]

It has been a thing historically

and in the US a little

many places wouldnt hire the irish

[rocky gale]

When nowadays we're like one of the most welcome tourist groups, even people in Northern Ireland who insist "I'm British not Irish" will instead get Irish passports for travelling and say they're Irish because they get treated better

[arctic talon]

💀

I think I took mental damage

reading that

[outer wave]

Yeah its uh

That whole paragraph was a whole lotta words alright

I wonder how much of these are bait posts

[arctic talon]

Decent likelihood

But some might just be idiots

[outer wave]

Oh they come outta the woodwork for this

[queen laurel]

the Drogorian closet Dragons are coming out huh

Suddenly a group of people claiming that GW is ruining warhammer or something

well well well isn't that lovely

[outer wave]

Tbf they've been saying that for a few years now

Honestly one could argue they've been saying this for a long ass time even before GW made the 'Warhammer is for everyone' thing

[queen laurel]

yeah but you see i have this thing called ignoring them

now there's more of them

[fallen plaza]

Clearly its not working then

[outer wave]

Oh yeah most of these guys get ignored or at least dont say these things in a more public social media platform

sometimes you're confusing as hell man

No one should have like

‘My beloved son, ymmot

I now crown you, jay the second.

[queen laurel]

WELL IT'S NICE NAME

[rocky gale]

Well Alucard isn't his real name

[queen laurel]

Alucard is stylish fitting of royalty and stuff

[crystal forum]

nobody tell this guy that space marines look weird because tabletop isn't supposed to be 1:1

[rocky gale]

He got the name Alucard because he was like the opposite of Dracula, like a mirrored reflection

[queen laurel]

that is

[rocky gale]

His real name is Adrian Fahrenheit Tepes

[queen laurel]

a bit lame

[rose thorn]

really??

[fallen plaza]

Dont tell maggie the name of the person that created space marines

[queen laurel]

yeah stick to Alucard

[outer wave]

Do you guys think Alucard has a brand of cards called Alu's Cards?

Out

[queen laurel]

bro is named after a temperature measurement

Isn’t her name literally Marin or something like that

Yep

did you know most scientific units are named after people

[fallen plaza]

There is a beetle named adolf hitler

So yes there is some truth to it

the funniest thing is chemists speedrunning naming elements on the periodic table because it's so hard to create and detect high number elements that there's disputes as to whether experiments actually succeed or not

[fallen plaza]

remember in highechool when the periodic table on the wall had elements like ununumium or some shit

those were temporary names

wait i think that was only in french

But that is a funny proxy name though

Theres a moose loose aboot!

We dont even talk like that

I havent heard anyone talk with a stereotypical Canadian accent

it's the more rural canadians who talk like that

Toronto accent is legit the worst thing I've ever heard

[outer wave]

Whyssat?

it sounds pretty american

On a shitty douchy podcast too

[rocky gale]

Oh if you think that's the worst accent you've not heard anything

[fallen plaza]

Exactly

[winter vessel]

Kinda sounds like a Filipino who is in the Visayas Region of the Philippines

[fallen plaza]

If that is bad? I dunno man.

[viral halo]

Every single interview with someone from Toronto sounds like this

I saw one of a ten year old speaking like this yesterday

I cannot be disproven

to the sword I say

[crystal forum]

if you think that's bad you should see the montreal accent

[viral halo]

Drake has ruined the city of toronto

[fallen plaza]

You should hear limmy speaking

[crystal forum]

kill jesta

[viral halo]

wait I've heard something else has ruined toronto

scottish accent truly undecipherable

God imagine a woman with a gaelic accent...

This is my favorite

[outer wave]

Im attracted to that btw

[outer wave]

I know nothing of this guy, but the slurred speech doesnt help

[crystal forum]

it's not even slurred

it's just normal scottish

[viral halo]

need this

[rocky gale]

It is a bit slurred for the show, he talks clearer on stream

[outer wave]

Ngl thats already kinda happened without the whole, you know, forceful bits

[rocky gale]

He's just doing a voice on the show because he's usually playing a character

[outer wave]

Yeah I imagine this is a bit he's doing

[crystal forum]

not if china annexes us first

[fallen plaza]

No one can annex you yanks

No one

[viral halo]

Joking aside, isn't canada in a race to see if India or China can take it over first through property and immigration?

[outer wave]

Sorta

[crystal forum]

that's mostly racist fearmongering

[viral halo]

I have a close friend in Nova Scotia and he's miserable

Another in Vancouver same ish

[fallen plaza]

She turned the weans against us!

[outer wave]

Like we do get alot of Indian people looking for work, and we have a good Chinese community and population in BC at least

[crystal forum]

it's companies that are to blame. americans are just as bad as the chinese ones

[rocky gale]

We're getting an American company in the medical field up here in Canada

They're buying up Lifelabs

God FUCK Tim Hortons or whoever sold the coffee beans to McD's

Their coffee is garbage now

[viral halo]

which one?

[crystal forum]

it's burger king that owns it

[outer wave]

Quest

[crystal forum]

the worst american fast food

[outer wave]

Wait its not McDonalds?

[crystal forum]

no

[viral halo]

I have no idea how BK stays in business

[outer wave]

I heard it was McDonalds thats using the beans now

[crystal forum]

wait nvm

wendy's

[viral halo]

Mcdonald's coffee is amazing

[crystal forum]

no i was right

nvm again

it's burger king

[viral halo]

I have the Mcdonald's coffee pods for my Keurig

shit SLAPS

The BK in my town doesn't have cashiers anymore

just computers

[outer wave]

The story I heard was that McD's did an offer to buy Tim Hortons, then when they did, they traded the beans around so Tims now has the original McD's beans while they had Tim Horton's beans

[fallen plaza]

What is the appeal of pods over instant coffee slop

[outer wave]

Its "higher quality" if I had to say, but I really dunno otherwise

[crystal forum]

although interestingly enough it's more of a merger than an acquisition

[viral halo]

no idea it just is quick

[crystal forum]

it all tastes like coffee to me

[outer wave]

I like grinding my own grind

[crystal forum]

i like grinding too

[outer wave]

Kinda expensive to get beans though

AYO?!

[crystal forum]

wait coffee?

[outer wave]

😔

[fallen plaza]

I will grind your balls

[rocky gale]

Yooo

[fallen plaza]

At least

[fallen plaza]

This is old lol

[crystal forum]

i heard you want good units

well i have TECH THRALLS

[rocky gale]

Well it's only just getting released

[fallen plaza]

Booo!

[crystal forum]

WE GETTING PUT INTO TECH SLAVERY WITH THIS ONE

[fallen plaza]

Tech thrall class in darktide when

[crystal forum]

surprisingly 20 units in a box

that's more than guard boxes

[fallen plaza]

20 units is like the average guard squad

Ive never had these boxes so i dunno if they come in 20 often

[crystal forum]

cadian shock troops come in 10

which is like nothing

guaranteed to sell out in 2 microseconds

also why is the end and the death volume 1 being announced?

didn't it already come out?

[rocky gale]

Rerelease

Might be the first it's released in paperback actually

I'm not sure

[crystal forum]

it was only hardcover before?

[rocky gale]

They typically release Limited edition and hardcover together first and then paperbacks come later

[crystal forum]

possibly the chunkiest plasma weapon i've ever seen

also getting more robots is always a W

[fallen plaza]

Old robots in new sculpts but still a welcome addition

[crystal forum]

not resin so massive W

[fallen plaza]

I had low hopes of the malcador ever becoming plastic back when hh2 was announced

But look where we are

Even if it is a bigger, faster leman Russ rules wise

[crystal forum]

it's faster???

[fallen plaza]

Yes

[crystal forum]

GW really has no idea what to do with solar auxilia

[fallen plaza]

They do

There just morons

[crystal forum]

it could just act like a heavier leman russ

[fallen plaza]

Also a faster malcador has always been a thing

[crystal forum]

why does its vraks lore say it's slow as shit

[fallen plaza]

30k has mentioned that it's engine at the time was more understood so it was faster

In fact rules wise it can fire while shooting

It was really annoying to fight in hh1 because it was considered a heavy tank back then so it's explosion was bigger so often times it was more worth it to throw the malcador at the enemy lmao

[crystal forum]

you need to show me where in the rules the macharius is

i want to see what it plays as

[fallen plaza]

I dunno

Go check faq section of the rules

And go to the hh section

It's in the Warhammer community site

But to give you the short answer

It sucks

[arctic talon]

Helix Plasma Mortar my beloved

fun fact

it has an airburst setting

[green loom]

Elite

Send the image

Of the thrall bits

[crystal forum]

bootleg necron

[arctic talon]

Necrons are actually useful at killing things

[crystal forum]

get 80 of these and they might kill a land raider

[arctic talon]

80?

they aint scratching the fucking paint on that thing with how vehicle armor works in 7e lol

[fallen plaza]

@outer wave I found a new love

Lord have mercy I am about to BUST

[outer wave]

OH SHIT ITS THE STONE RHINO

Actually the Macross version is called The Monster IIRC

[fallen plaza]

1/100 scaled

All metal frame

[outer wave]

Bro look up Stone Rhino battletech

It's very similar

[fallen plaza]

I've heard of the unseen yeah

[outer wave]

Idk if it's Unseen anymore

It's usable in MWO

[fallen plaza]

I dunno why they toned downed the 4 barrels in battletech but man

It's baller

[outer wave]

It has arm cannons to make it up

[arctic talon]

metal frame

[fallen plaza]

It sucks a lot of old mecha kits are rare and expensive as shit

I'm lucky to find xabungle shit at all

[opaque coyote]

Y'know Cawl has been there since before the Heresy

And saw the Imperium backslide into an ever worse state than it was at its height

[arctic talon]

Cawl doesn't give a shit about the Imperium, he cares about the Mechanicus + what he's been told to do

lol

[opaque coyote]

So ironically, Cawl might be the only person who Gulliman can actually reminisce with

[opaque coyote]

True, most of the Mechanicus don't tbh

But it's also funny to think that technically Cawl would be the only person who can actually understand Gulliman in a way

Imagine the only person you can talk to about certain things

Being a maniacal cyborg who's more steel than flesh

Who has different personalities and an AI just hanging around

Followed by an experimental SM that is constantly in agony

This "person" is the only one who you can actually speak to about what things were like back then

Poor Gulliman

[arctic talon]

he's gona eat a bolter

[opaque coyote]

If Lion gets to Terra, Gulliman is gonna cry and hug him

Despite the fact that they hated each other

[fallen plaza]

I somehow doubt they will ever meet

[shell mason]

is that punisher?

[viral halo]

Yea

Early 2000s Garth ennis run specifically

Marvel knights my beloved

[green loom]

Garth Penis

Hoping my bookaroos arrive tomorrow

[shell mason]

Love Garth Ennis

Crossed comic still in my mind 5 years later

[viral halo]

Garth Ennis had the best punisher for all those years

crossed and the boys are fucking god awful

I just finished the 2022 Punisher line, and while it was a fun read, the character assassination is pretty rough.

2023 punisher isn't frank castle so yawn

[shell mason]

Crossed was....a read

read wish you were here the book

[viral halo]

Crossed is just too much man

has no redeeming qualities

it's just porn/gore porn/excuse to say the n word

Same thing with the boys honestly

Marvel had to pin garth ennis down to get him to stop the punisher from slinging the hard r around I just know it

[storm jungle]

Guy is a massive piece of shit in general

when the Boys show got too popular he made a response comic with Hughie hanging out in a pub with his trans friend and its just so bad.

guy legit should be beaten with a stick lol

[viral halo]

Garth Ennis, never

[storm jungle]

Dont forget putting slurs in like almost every page of anything ever

or just showing black people as GTA NPCs in anything he writes

fucking racist prick

glad hes basically a cave goblin now

[shell mason]

what happened to him?

I became desensitized to shit growing up so reading it with well tired eyes made me think about it differently

[storm jungle]

nothing, hes just mostly unremembered now minus the Boys and his Punisher run

hes mostly just fuming lol

[viral halo]

He still consults for Marvel iirc

[shell mason]

Too much best gore and cod lobbies as a teenager

[viral halo]

They've been having problems with the punisher part of their brand outside of the tv show since 2022

[storm jungle]

oh man i can imagine

"No Mr Ennis we canot put the r-word 10 times in a page."

[shell mason]

Maybe I should do a rereading of crossed and the boys

[viral halo]

he LOVES the n word

[storm jungle]

lmao have fun

[shell mason]

that I remember

[viral halo]

His punisher runs are so good bc they have a moderate level of censorship

except for PUNSHER BORN and PUNISHER MAX they let that man go brazy

[shell mason]

I thought the crossed disease removes the morals that people have, making them act on their more carnal desires

it's been about

three years since I last read the boys

[viral halo]

I can't wait for John angry bernthal to come back as the punisher

[shell mason]

John angry

[sour hornet]

question, inquisitors can pursue things outside of their ordos, right?

like if an ordo malleus inquisitor finds a group of xenos causing trouble, he's just gonna deal with it himself?

[crystal forum]

nothing stops an inquisitor from doing whatever they want

[green loom]

Ye

[crystal forum]

the ordos they follow are just their own choices

it's not like a clan or guild

[green loom]

Eisenhorn is Ordo Xenos and he covers chaos stuff

[sour hornet]

why is ordo malleus so small then?

do inquisitors just find fighting daemons fucking sucks and just don't do it?

[crystal forum]

you need a lot of mental strength to fight demons

not everybody can do it

it's more like a physical limitation

[sour hornet]

i mean, I get it, but w/ the fuckass warp rift, we could use more daemon hunters

[crystal forum]

you can say that about a lot of imperial things

[dusk patrol]

Most of the Eisenhorn series is him dealing with stuff that has nothing to do with xenos

[viral halo]

I was just about to be the third person saying this to them before scrolling down

[crystal forum]

it doesnt help that im currently reading easenhorn and thought of it first too

[dusk patrol]

I don’t pay attention to what other dorks say

[crystal forum]

what if i say iron hands rule

[dusk patrol]

The truth does not require anyone’s supplication

But yes they do

THERes no NEW FUCKINH MODELS FOR OLD WOLRD CHAOS

WJAY THE LITERLA FUCK Gw

[rocky gale]

Uh huh

None

[rose thorn]

YOU HOW

[rocky gale]

Although there might be more

I think when they first announced these guys they said there would be a second wave

[rose thorn]

THESE WERE THE SAME FUCKINH MODELS WE WERE PLAYING WITH IN AOS FOR LIKE 2 YEARS

THIS IS DIGUSTING

[rose thorn]

Yeha but you don’t release something new and give nothing

[dusk patrol]

Yeah it’s very well done

[rose thorn]

I know the old world team has been given literally nothing, and have received no real support from gw so I can’t really be mad at them

But come on

At least give a new old archon

[storm jungle]

they do sometimes make new models but ye lol

they prob learned old world fans will swallow anything given to them

which is pretty sad to watch but hey

[rose thorn]

Bro they are selling literal garbage

All my local game stores I’ve gone to has been over flowering with old world stuff lmao

[storm jungle]

Nostalgia helps keep it afloat, the playdough ahh minis seem to sell well.

I dont really blame them for exploiting whales

id do the same

[rose thorn]

I really just hope that people don’t get suckered into buying this garbage thinking it’s the actual fantasy setting

[storm jungle]

Bad news they already have.

[rose thorn]

[storm jungle]

like its not a best seller or anything but the market is there

[rose thorn]

We can’t have to make new players use resin

This is insane

My old world fan partner says the new rules are hot ass too apparently

[storm jungle]

I mean like i said its pretty pathetic but consumers will be consumers. Id rather kill myself than buy any of those old minis

[rocky gale]

On the one hand it sucks to see people being exploited, on the otherhand they're the same people who've told me to kill myself for liking AoS, soooooooo

[dusk patrol]

Don’t really need to group literally everyone who likes a thing into one

[rose thorn]

The best old world experience is buying a 60 dollar video game

(I’m really bad at tww I’m just parroting my partner)

[dusk patrol]

The potentially good thing that can come out of it is if there’s interest proven then they can justify investing more, but we’ll see.

We’ll see though

[rose thorn]

Honestly I’m just excited to guy wanderers and dark elves for kit bashes again

Like the named dark elves

[dusk patrol]

I’m definitely not gonna buy into it, but I do like some of the new models so far

[rose thorn]

Yeah me too

The new models are amazing

Ive been very tempted to buy that troll shaman

[dusk patrol]

We’ll see, it takes a long time for models to go from concept to production

[storm jungle]

yeah most fantasy fans deffo deserve no sympathy tbh

literally parroting "age of shitmar" for like a decade now lol

[rose thorn]

Gw is gonna have a huge problem trying to make sure AOS and old world not share

They hate double dipping

[dusk patrol]

Yeah, we’ll see. It won’t stop some people though, lots of AoS models work fine for Old World

[rose thorn]

The old world people I’ve seen have literlaly just been using aos models lmao

I mean

AOS yeha

They have been making square trays to put the circle bases in

[dusk patrol]

I’ve seen some people magnetize the bases

[rose thorn]

Besides like, empire and old world only factions

And nostalgia circle jerkers

There’s no real reason to buy old world models instead of updated version from AOS

[rose thorn]

Hey how did horus heresy make people not use models for both hh and 40k?

Or double dipping or what ever

I don’t remember the hh release at all

[rocky gale]

Uhh with weapons and wysiwyg I think

[rose thorn]

Ah

[storm jungle]

^

ye what she said

[rocky gale]

Like the HH Leman Russ tanks don't have Sponsons

[rose thorn]

I have no clue what a sponsons is

[rocky gale]

It's like the extra side turret bit

[rose thorn]

Oh

[storm jungle]

its the same reason realistically how Cities of Sigmar would have Empire of Man units (they were literally on the first cover for the faction when the setting was new) but now the men-at-arms get a more unique aesthetic compared to the Old World

Its mostly a visual difference they try to keep up

[rose thorn]

Besides steam tank Griffon and battle wizards

I imagine steam tanks and griffon will be uh

Stomped out

But we love our battle wizards

[storm jungle]

They are classic fantasy creatures so maybe not but we'll see

GW tries hard to aesthetically differentiate settings/sub-settings

[rose thorn]

We have 3 cities in lore that are built around that unit!

[rose thorn]

It’s just funny when the AOS models are refreshes (besides cities) of the same old models. So you gotta either buy trh ugly ass old models for the same price as the new ones

I wonder what our new dwarves will look like tbh

If we get them

If AOS duardin gets squatted this will be the biggest crime against humanity

[crystal forum]

interesting how they havent rebooted the old world logo from the pastel hell pits of the 90's

[rocky gale]

I hope we do, I really want to have a diverse City going with aelves and duardin

[rose thorn]

Me too

If not, the models aren’t ugly so it’s not the worst situation

I want the older aelves (sorceress) to get an update but besides that I’m really happy with cities

Oh and flaggs

I despise old flaggs

And we need more priests

[crystal forum]

im jealous that old world is getting fortress terrain and 40k get generic pipes

[rocky gale]

The terrain is so good

[rose thorn]

IKR

[rocky gale]

I'm very tempted to get the Manor box

[rose thorn]

I’m planning to buy it for AOS and warcry

[rocky gale]

Yee

[rose thorn]

Is the terrain new or old?

It looks amazing

[rocky gale]

The old Druchi sorceress?

[rose thorn]

I despise her, and her dragon

[rocky gale]

Oh

No not the Dragon one

The one on foot

Okay

[rose thorn]

Both

Yeah

[rocky gale]

Huh

[rose thorn]

I think it looks really ugly

[rocky gale]

The on foot one is so good

[rose thorn]

It’s a naked old woman???

[rocky gale]

That's on the paint job tbh

The actual model is great

[rose thorn]

Do you have one?

[rocky gale]

Yea

She holds up to a lot of the more modern models tbh

I really want my opinion about it to be wrong

[rocky gale]

She's not painted yet

But one second

[rose thorn]

Holy shit

Okay yeah that’s alot better

[rocky gale]

I also just noticed I need to clean her chin up a bit

and the hair

[rose thorn]

I really wanna buy scourge privateers, they are pretty important to my city lore wise

[crystal forum]

what do you use to accurately cut off those bits without tearing into the model

[rocky gale]

What you mean

[crystal forum]

mould lines

[rocky gale]

Oh uhh

[rose thorn]

You can use the back of your exacto knife or use a special tool from gw

That’s just a piece of metal

[rocky gale]

Like either very gently with a knife or a piece of metal or my finger nail

[crystal forum]

yeah that piece of metal is hard to use precisely

[rocky gale]

Mostly I use a knife

and just be very careful

[rose thorn]

Me too

[crystal forum]

skill issue on my part then

[rose thorn]

I really don’t like this model, mainly the sorcerers

[storm jungle]

Lmao i remember that one

Conan ahh slut

😭

[rose thorn]

She’s literally sitting on a wooden horse

[storm jungle]

No idea how the sculpters did all those dark elf sorceresses with 1 hand tbh

[rose thorn]

(Don’t google that)

[crystal forum]

make you appreciate the sisters of battle armour even more

[rose thorn]

The dragon is ugly but in a cool way at least

I’m waiting for the wood elf release to see if they have any good proxy models

I heard wood elves had dragons in old world

But never saw them

Hope they are as cool as everyone says they are

[crystal forum]

meanwhile im desperately holding off on spurgling myself on more HH tanks

[rose thorn]

googles

[rose thorn]

THEY GAVE WOOD ELVES FISH NETS

[rocky gale]

Hmm

[crystal forum]

too much green what am i even looking at

looks like a bonsai tree

[rose thorn]

Fuck everyone who was mad that stormcasts got dragons this is dog shit

[crystal forum]

how tf does somebody sculpt this

[rose thorn]

Poorly

I might buy the FW chaos dragon, this is a baller kitbash

[rocky gale]

I think most of the old dragon were metal as well

[crystal forum]

will we speak about the hobbit stuff

how does hobbit lore even work

can they make new stuff

[rocky gale]

You gonna post the Smaug model?

[crystal forum]

or is it JUST following the tolkien books

[rocky gale]

They can make new stuff

[rose thorn]

I would but that’s a 600 dollar model

That’s too expensive to even screen shot

[crystal forum]

also like focusing on the war of tolkien books

is so

[rocky gale]

Sure a couple months ago they created a new Orc Captain who had an ability to steal special items from other characters

So he could steal Aragorns special sword and just use it himself

Narsil?

No it was Narsil before being reforged

Anduril?

Yee Andúril

[rose thorn]

Hey do you have any other dark aelv models?

[rocky gale]

Uhhhhhh

Just Krethusa

But I've not even built her yet

[rose thorn]

Oh okay just wondering

I’m probably gonna check the unpainted version of models considering how bad the sorceress one was

[rocky gale]

Yea GW's paint jobs for faces can be grim

Especially for women for some reason

[rose thorn]

Okay yeah they just painted the dark elf faces really bad

[rocky gale]

Like the Minka Lesk model, actually has a normal looking face when other people paint it but for some reason GW's paintjob made her look like Jim Carrey pulling a funny face

[rose thorn]

OSGEGWJHDJAKS

Yeah wow

Why did gw do this lmao

https://tablestandard.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/pxl_20230530_2104570597e2-1.jpg?w=899

I love this model

[crisp heath]

looks like me mum

if she lost a few kilograms

[crystal forum]

how is it physically possible to paint those teeth

imagine doing this when you're middle aged

with bad short sight

[crisp heath]

how tall are these figures?

[crystal forum]

i assume normal guardsmen size

so smaller than the average space marine

[opaque coyote]

Abaddon

That you?

[crisp heath]

? i´m asking how tall are the miniatures GW sells and are shown here in cm.

since you said it seems pretty hard to paint the teeth

lol

[crystal forum]

sorry i thought you've held a space marine model before

it's uh, small

[crisp heath]

oh, i thought you were saying that guardsmen are smaller than space marines lore wise lol

[rocky gale]

according to the internet that specific model is 1.5″

[crisp heath]

which would have been epic trolling
