just saying
Seems messy to get blood on your machinery
wars are won and loss on morale
The most awful thing I remember about the campaign is hendricks taking a tiny ass bite of a candy bar and chucking it away https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caF11caTRt8
Stumbled upon this cutscene and was pretty surprised. Monty is EVERYHWHERE!
Soldier says how much he loves the chocolate bar, right before he throws 7/8th of it on the ground. I supposed the black-site base cleaning lady is expected to pick up after him. Kind of a dick move. Then again, I guess military helicopters don't have waste paper basket...
seeing some dude getting torn limb from limb
GOD
is like
Up there with "train go boom"
Oh yeah definitely if i wanted to scare people i would program night lord's programming on my robots
way worse then seeing someone just getting their skull crushed lol
Just a bit surprised you know
I think my only complaint about Titanfall 2 is the lack of faction specific Specter models lol
Then again lore wise I guess it makes sense
the old Specter model is literally deprecated and worse there's no point in making them
Hey at least each titan is different and it isn't just a classification of chassis
I really liked the Militia Spectre from Titanfall 1
Yeah
the triangle head is really cool
the Boxhead Gen 2 specters are fine but like
I prefer the triangle head
The machinery is made to get blood on lol
Okay mr machine runs on blood because we must grind it down
Hell I would've been fine if the triangle head was what the simulacrum Pilots would look like
This ain't ultra kill
Sing these guys with the robots that has blue missile watches on their arm is fun
I think reavers was it
Like that robot that just shoots rockets at you and move around
Reapers iirc
Yeah those guys
Train go boom
ngl I wish titanfall 2
kept the titanfall 1 titan system
regenerating shields + modifiable loadouts
Yeah i love the characters of scorch and legion but, making my own unique titan is definitely one of the things i want
I dont like the 3rd person stuff in tf2. Tbf, i think i liked tf1 more than tf2
The OS voice systems, I miss that
Couldn't play titan fall 2 though
Wait shields don't regenerate in titan fall 2?
I thought they did
you gotta feed them a battery
You don't even get shields on titans without someone rodeoing a battery for you
They do. Heath does not untill someone feeds you. Or you do yourself iirc
They only do in campaign and frontier defense
shields do not regen in MP
Ah that explains it
Oh, nvm then
It was removed so titans would die easier
which is fine I guess
but titans weren't that hard to kill in 1
you just had to get good at it lol
Titanfall 2 really made them more specialized
yeah
I also miss the more varied like
apperances you had in titanfall 1 for pilots but w/e
you're a mercenary in the second one not working for a specific faction
had this as my desktop wallpaper for a time before tf2 was revealed
As somone that loves customization, i stopped playing tf2 back in the day because of the lack of it. That was the most disappointing thing for me.
Oh yeah in terms of your titan specialization i think titanfall one beats titanfall 2 on that in the multiplayer front right
Like yes your titans practically don't have personality but you can make them your own truly
"i don't care about Nose arts! Where is my Vanessa OS?!"- me when we couldn't choose an operating system
Is modded titanfall large at all?
Cause maybe there’s a mod that brings that back
The fact that not even shields recharge is kinda crazy
Imagine the emperor's face seeing magnus smash through the webway
Every once in a while I imagine his expression and chuckle
average imperium citizen:
Sefoni is the mourningstar's navigator right?
New Admech book 
Nah, we see the navigator in the launch trailer
Sefoni is just a powerful psyker in the warband's employ
Tbh sefoni could prolly do it in a pinch
Fair enough
Grendyl probably wouldn't have a navigator in his retinue and depend on brahms' instead
yeah the navigator comes with Brahm's ship
they are all snobs that mind their own business anyway
Navigators are to psykers as nobility is to the imperium
Grendyl is the Inquisitor we have yet to see right?
Stuck up, douchey
Yep
Unless you count the creepy servitor lol
If you read eisenhorn or cain books you learn inquisitors try to keep their identity a secret until it's necessary
I sometimes still watch the I am a warrior cutscene, it made such a strong impression on me when the game launched
still holds up very well
They aren't really linked to each other.
Other than both being Abhuman
Real.
Real real real
TF|1 clears honestly
og stryder is still kino aesthetically
Not bashing on titanfall 2 as i still think its a sick game but stuff like the gritty vibe of the first were sort of taken away in 2 as well.
everything is cleaner and more futuristic
no visual filter like the CoD games of the time either
I know
But it's a decent surface level observation
They are psykers, just a specific "breed" of them
They are different on a genetic level
And because of how valuable and rare they are they consolidate themselves in noble houses
so question about the grimoires we collect sometimes, i assume the main point of taking them is to deny the knowledge they contain to the cult, but what does the inquisition do with them once back on the ship?
is there just some vault in the depths of the ship where they have them locked away or do they just yeet them into an incinerator after they verify the books have no new info
Depends. We don't know if Grendyl is a radical inquisitor or not
Puritan inquisitors would likely just destroy the Grimoires
Radicals would find a way to use them
Puritans would not even bother reading them
Given that we are disposable, the inquisition would just kill us if we showed signs of corruption and are content with us doordashing it to them
yeah i image the grimoires are for learning the sorcerous rituals the cult uses so likely not that high value information
We do know the onboard crew take precautions to "cleanse" operatives of infection.
or at least the small bits of corruption
both spiritually and physically, as Kayex mentions prepping scalpels once we destroy the phage tree and come back home lol
Pretty sure eisenhorn spends weeks or months recovering in book 1 after someone tries to use a xeno grimoire
Nasty stuff
its fortunate the cult only put wards that destroy the books if they are opened improperly
there are a lot more deadly ways to keep those grimoires out of unwanted hands
The fact we just find them lying around is funny
i imagine the ritual masters of the cult are just sitting there like "for the love the grandfather will you idiots STOP LEAVING THE BOOKS LYING AROUND!!"
Admonition could be using the grimoires to create daemonhosts
What if it's just nasty fanfiction or something
yeah like i said they are most likely tools for learning the sorcery of the cult, so daemon communion summonings and binding rituals
Actually what if the grimores we pick up are nothing special
Like they're not even demonically possessed or cursed or anything
They're just books
Don't think I've heard this line yet
Also I found it interesting how Sister Vestia is actually not a bad person?
Like she's a Sister of Battle so she definitely has done some heinous things.
She also casually insults us if you have certain personalities
i dont think she is a sister of battle
I mean isn't she a Sister tho
She's literally called Sister Vestia
Probably not part of the combat Ordos tho
yeah but that doesnt mean she is a sister of battle, she is just part of the ecclisiarchy
if you've put off the game for awhile Hab Dreyko got a big mission update with new vocators
when you get Brahms/Kayex she specifically tells him to prep decontanimation processes for us
I've been playing nonstop for the past two weeks, I definitely like the changes
It is surprising that she isn't a totally garbage person.
Like again, she insults us if we have certain personalities but praises us in others
yeah it was unexpected
I think in the mission where you have to scan the Stims, she actually has faith in us
Ah lmao
Like she explicitly says to the nobles "I have faith in the rejects to do their jobs"
Hestia is not a sororitas actually
shes just a religious lady
The ecclesiarchy shares a lot of surface level similarities to the Roman catholic church, so clergy members are called brother and sister based on gender
^
She also says that the reason why Tertium fell is because well
The residents were abandoned
Sister/Brother is always used in most religious departments to some degree
And to be honest she is right
that line is mostly related to Dreyko itself
thats what i was saying lol
The sisters of battle and astartes are based on teutonic knights so they also call eachother sister/brother
Ah yeah lol, because like if she WAS one Fatshark would absolutely put her in actual power-armor, it makes for a better and cooler visual
The reason why the Moebian 6th turned is because their efforts were never acknowledged.
Similar to how modern soldiers were. They were abandoned. Never acknowledged
She'd probably also have the white dyed hair but that isn't necessarily a requirement
Yeah the moebian 6th have a very all quiet on the western front vibe
yeah they got ground down and turned bitter, made it easy for Wolfer and the cult to get them to go traitor
Atoma was saturated with a lot of propaganda about what the dark tide was, so many were ignorant about what was really happening
Dan Abnett generally likes paralleling how soldiers generally felt during certain wars
I think for Darktide, it's more about the Gulf War/War against Terror tbh
I'd feel bad for them if they didn't return to their home and begin slaughtering everyone
I think it's the cult they're allied with that does the slaughtering tbf
The Moebian 6th itself never does any of it beyond
Fighting against the planet's military
Of course it's still BAD
Since they're still allied with insane cultists
And are condoning it
Still though, Captain Wolfer does actually offer us to turn back or even join.
We just don't because Chaos sucks and we have a job to do
Also those refinements aren't gonna pay for themselves
per the martyr skull dialog Wolfer was a traitor well before he lead the the 6th back
Yeah although it seems that Wolfer turned because he was abandoned
In the battlefield
People seemed to praise his leadership also. So it was likely that he was forced to be left behind. Injured and in agony
He seemed like was a genuinely good sergeant before he turned Traitor long ago
Most likely he just finally broke because he wasn't even gonna die with the ability to take some with him
He was just gonna die defenseless and alone with nobody acknowledging his death.
So he gave himself to Nurgle
To the cult
And turned traitor
If there is one thing I do love about Darktide
It's the Moebian 6th.
To be honest I kinda wish there was a mission where we somehow play with the Traitor's POV
It does make me wonder how many regular soldiers often turn traitor in the Imperium
It's genuinely sad that the story of Darktide is slow to develop tbh
Because the tidbits we get are REALLY interesting
At least four
The astra militarum is actually the result of half of the imperial army turning traitor during the HH
The astra militarum is broken down into branches and units rather than being one cohesive fighting force to abate this
Ah yeah it's also why they separated the Navy and Guard right?
Similar to the legions being broken down into chapters
It prevents a guard captain from like
Bombing planets with ships if they turn traitor
The navy even has its own ship-to-ship fighting force
Independent of the imperial guard
Yeah they even have their own weapon supply
They use some special weapons like Rotor Cannons btw
Please have Rotor Cannons in Darktide a Mini gun would be so cool

Separation of powers to make it more difficult for regiments to turn and all that
Or be as effective when they do
its why when any faction's sub-group turns traitor the Imperium takes like
weeks to months to realise it lol
The Imperium will never notice the Adminstratum turn traitor
In fact it will be the exact same
Wrong shipments at the wrong time to wrong planets?
That happens anyways with or without Chaos affecting it

pretty much
its why Guilliman splitting up the branches to so many sub-groups is a good idea on the surface but an awful one in practice when your civilization is so crooked
Jokes aside, decentralization helps to lessen the blow
But also makes the blow more common
It varies, at the end of the day you have to choose your battles
Yeah his book was basically rushed and I don't even think he meant it to be permanent tbh
The codex Astartes doesn’t have to do with the other branches
It goes even further
It was more or less a mostly-functional duct-tape solution ot the astartes Chapters
Most squads don't even have vox access
And he had like 100 years after he released it
The Codex Astartes was probably meant to be a temporary thing tbh. He made it out of desperation because everything was fuckex
Vox is usually only given to command squads and field officers
So your average guardsman doesn't even have any sort of communication line
And 100 in the Imperium timescale is like
A shopping trip
It wasn’t really, it was just a solution for the future and it wasn’t meant to be never changing
Which probably makes them a worse fighting force
But it also slows down the spread of treachery
Insert Leandros hatred here
There's a hammer and bolter episode where they spend the entire episode traveling through trenches to deliver a single message to the command squad
Tbh I actually kinda want to see him again
It depends on the regiments too
There’s just a lot of variance
Yeah some definitely have a lot of communication lines, others don't
Oh yeah with the traced Tyranid models

The imperium takes opsec very seriously
The definition of if you dont need to know, you won't
Also the vox is always dramatically on the fritz
Tbf Hammer and Bolter got much better with the later episodes
But the early episodes were
Not good
The animation was so stiff and dogshit
most are fine
It didn't help that GW also cracked down on fan content before hand so people were already pissed
When abaddon shot the necron in the head
And instead of like
An explosion you'd expect from a storm bolter
Yeah I could feel the artists wanting to do more
But I also felt like they knew
It was like a cartoon cloud was drawn on its neck
"We have 2 cents as a budget"
The episodes are actually entertaining otherwise
A good way to get friends into the lore piecemeal
I think my favorite was either the Genestealer one
And the only reason I still pay for warhammer+
There’s Iron Hands meetups?
Nah that's it
In this sacred place
I ain't posting any more
Chaos Undivided forever

Keep worshipping your corpse emperor
The real one for sallies should have been “Salamanders fans when you tell them they’re not picking the good guy faction”
almost every single black templar fan i see being some form of racist is prob my favorite trope
it legit drives me insane sometimes
“Tau fans when you tell them their faction actually isn’t the rainbow and kittens faction”
We do have rainbow and kittens as auxillary troops
That will never get a model
Like jfc imagine picking a faction in 40k because you want to be the most “moral” talk about the point of the setting blasting over your head at Mach 5
I just like the Tau because big rail gun
And that’s fine, they got a good look
But if you’re picking them cause you think you’re picking some actual good guys you’re cringe af, same for sallies and lamenters and whoever else
Personally I just wish they had more Auxiliaries than Vespids and Kroot.
Like they have Knight sized Giants.
And we don't have a model of them that are like
Them outfitted with Battlesuit weaponry and armor
Like imagine that. That would be the coolest fucking thing ever
Oh yeah and also mushroom people (not the Orks)
True
There’s always gonna be some obscure thing that doesn’t get a model
This is true
Still though part of the reason why I like them is cause they sorta remind me of like
The Covenant except
Bluer
Gue'la auxillary when 
Maybe one day
One of the reasons I want to pick up some chaos faction in the future (but probably in AoS/The Old World) is cause they're fucking evil lol
Most World Eater fans are gym bros
I have never seen a world eater fan not have muscles
I dont want to be mean but every warhammer player I've interacted with in person never went to the gym
Literally everyone has muscles
But then again
Not anymore
I've never met a world eaters player

Correct 
More likely Undivided, but Nurgle and Khorne factions I do consider lol
I’ve always managed to meet a decent variety of people for every faction
True
And tbh I might get them if I ever get into the hobby
Good and bad
Imagine seeing me after pumping arms walk into the game workshop store with the most basic cadian army you have ever seen in your life
Well, I guess it's not super basic
Because I ||am braindead|| like Khornate stuff
Like if I have to choose my ""favorite"" Chaos Gods it'd probably go something like
-Khorne
-Slaanesh
-Nurgle
-Tzeentch
For me it's the exact reverse
Khorne on top, Tzeentch on bottom, Based
Still good but
Perfectly balanced
I think the Tsons are cool but that's pretty much the only cool things that Tzeentch has tbh

Nurgle > Undivided > Khorne > Tzeentch > Slaanesh for me
most accurate statement of the century
Lords of Change are cool
True
Unless if you fight them in Boltgun
Then they're not cool

WILL YOU JUST STAND STILL YOU FUCKING BIRD
Tbh I'd love to kitbash a Warriors of Chaos Nurgle-themed warband for The Old World once I get better at model building and painting
Arguably we have an overexposure of Lords of Change in media rn
Out of the traitor legions, death guard and night lords have my favorite aesthetics
They pop up a lot
I've found the Chaos Sorcerer way worse in that game
WORTHLESS ASS MOTHERFUCKER
YOUR LIFE IS WORTH NOTHING
YOU SHOULD KILL YOURSELF N-
They are still cool
if you dont like the models thats fine
most people enjoy them as is
Plague Marines are probably my favorite CSM designs tbh
back in the day their range update was crazy
I like the bloated sickly look
Khornate Berserkers are just above them because of the weird
Arches(?)
Yeah, agreed
Idk wtf do you call these things on their helmets
AND you can always just paint them a certain way
Horns?
Uhh
Arches?
Wtf do you call their thingies on their helmet
This dude is wielding a plasma pistol and chain axe
He likes to live dangerously
Seriously tho wtf are the things on their helmets called
I love this model
Functionally they are just plumes despite not being feathered
It's like how Vegeta manages to make that Troll Haircut look cool
Seriously I tried a similar haircut once in elementary because Vegeta was my favorite
They'd actually not be very practical as you want a blow to your helmet to "roll" off
Worst mistake of my life
Something getting caught on it isn't good for your brain
Tbf they don't have much of a brain left usually
Yeah
World eaters don't have much to worry about there
"When the bullet goes through my head but it's okay because it only hit my brain"
Tbh I thought it was like a guard against like sword attacks
Since Melee is a thing in 40k
Or maybe to attract snipers
Like they bring their arches up
The sniper shoots at instinct
Only hits the arches cause the rest of the head is in the trench or something
Or Maybe I'm just overthinking it
Definitely overthinking it
I thought of a funny thing where some random Nurglite cultist literally throws piss at people
Another reason you wouldn't want something like that kn a helmet is that uh
Say I catch my sword in it
Now I can wrestle your head around
But because he worships Nurgle, the piss is so infected and acidic that it fucking melts metal
Or wrench your helmet off
And faces
its the same reason people wore long/decorated helmets IRL
It also looks cool as hell
Yep
Always thought they should have sharp ends on the helmet
Plumage or ornamentation didnt lose popularity until ww1
Because I think it would be impractically cool
^
Yeah also the 9th edition chaos codex actively explains even CSM who arent aware of their surroundings much will have their armor actively mutate
and like, basically get customised without their consent
lol
Yeah lol
Yeah I'm pretty sure most CSMs have their armor basically become their skin
Which must suck if you have like
I appreciate how a writer added that in just to explain how CSM work with armor mutations/custominsation lol
An itch or something
Ah so
Ahriman didn't purposefully put those armor nipples on
...
Honestly saw a woman drawing of Ahriman
And she basically had her nipples fucking electrified
While saying 'Why are you laughing??"
And tbh
I definitely think some mf laughed at it
Before getting disintegrated by Ahriman
Like there is no way that one person hasn't
thats also not wrong either
official art has a librarian with the same setup
i think they are there to be like "conductors" but they are also literally just nips
lol
Again I think it must've been Tzeentch that added it
There is no way he put them on and was like
"Yeah that looks great!"
Idk which is worse
Tzeentch putting them on Ahriman's armor as a prank
Or Ahriman thinking it was a good fashion choice

Actually what's with Tzeentch and nipples
Magnus even has them
Is there something you want to tell us Tzeentch
Mantles
Ahriman finally got that breast reduction surgery
... actually I have an idea
There's an actual lore term that the world eaters use but the normal person word is mantles.
This but 40k
accurate
Yeah i was gonna say
but i aint digging to find the term lol
Ah okay
Honestly I was gonna have a Lamenter SM turn into a Khornate Berserker
and I'm wondering if he should have the mantles
Nooo his milkers!!!!
Where will we get our milk from now?
I guess we have to turn to the Emperor now...
Im not sure anymore..... but I know we cannot survive for long....
His skeleton must have a ton of calcium!
wtf
That’s not the Rock that’s the Stone
i assume she was drunk as hell
lol
God that image is so real
Imagine being The Rock and having some random girl nibble at your pec
she's straight up devouring him holy shit
That’s not the rock smh
thats not the Rock or the Stone thats the Mineral
the silicate
KEK
He does look like him though
The rock does not condone nibbling on the People’s Cupcakes
his bodyguards would demolish her
Its for everyone not just one individual
i like watching clips of bodyguards it's fun
Messi’s Bodyguard is the best to watch
i was about to mention him yeah
Dude is in permanent swivel
like an anti weirdo device
i wouldn't want to be harassed by random shmucks either
I love how his ego is so fragile he needs men on the set calculating how much strikes he gets from another star and make sure everyone gets a fair about of hits in on each other
fucking pansy
does the rock do that?
i know he got a lot of shit from black adam but i didn't think it was that bad
you can google it now
its very much that bad
his entire contract essentially boils down to "i cant lose or i wont do the movie"
hes scared of looking bad and about his "brand"
since he wants to be a big-shot and mostly isnt
Listen
listen
...
I would do the exact same thing
if it Ahriman yeah same
^
My mouth unhinges like Kirby and I consume an entire tit
Well
muscular titties*
Like big strong tits, true
There you go
Pecs vs boobs
same thing
Caedere Ressium, it was specific to the World Eaters but by the modern setting, most chaos marines sport them or the horns.
why are you posting drake and josh stuff
what you’re looking at here is advanced jokeware
isn't drake a convicted something
Tbh I always thought that the World Eaters should have horns
Mainly so they can bull charge
Imagine a World Eater doing this to some poor mf
I mean, they absolutely have
Speaking of which if I ever write a Khornate Berserker
I am 100% have them do that
oh shit new hunter the parenting video i didn't see
time to consume an unhealthy amount of cannabinoids
I think it's clear that he wants to make more TTS since the characters are basically carbon copies of the TTS characters
And tbh I do enjoy Hunter The Parenting a lot
they're that way specifically because alfabusa wanted to move away from GW
they're the same characters just different setting
I once played a khornate berserker in a game of Black Crusade.
Thraxx teamkill axefiend.
i dont think its a good idea to try and follow big-D's example, in fact i think its a really bad idea
He was actually pretty chill.
A right geezer
its kind of nuts how good Hunter is
the fact that they got an entire small animation team for it is crazy
New episode is out
shows what true love and dedication does
But it's not the main story so
i need to get back to following it
also they still output more stuff than warhammer+ which is funny
Exactly.
personally i dont need flashy animation to be entertained
It's clear that he wants to continue TTS, but he also dislike GW and their policies
also he can't risk it cause he has a kid
Alfabusa makes good shit in general
I like his Half Life series
Hunter the parenting is a fantastic way to keep things going while also not tempting fate
alfabusa improves his videos every time
and lives in Sweden and the tax collectors will burn his house down, thats from the state of the ogre video they did a while back lol
damn his patreon makes numbers
he deserves it tbh
but its probably less than expected due to paying the voice actors
remember almost 70-80% of that money goes to his crew at large
same with the voice actors who are all TTS veterans
The VA work in the latest Hunter thing is really good
AAA-tier
I always wanted to but im a big penny pincher 💀
good to see people are giving him all that money though, knowing the effort that goes behind each episode especially
he just does what he enjoys man i wish him the best
Same, its why i didnt care at all when he put TTS on hiatus
guy has a wife/kid to feed lol
i wouldnt put my patreon on jeopardy over IP nonsense either
alright so
i illegally read the HH unit book
there's this weapon class which is
adrathic weapons
I was sad but I understood
what the actual fuck are these things
It prob will at some point
again its on hiatus, not over
its like cheesy 60's laser guns
where a guy stands in place
and you watch him awkwardly disappear to thin air while being still
Adra thicc
lol
all this text to describe a gun that's on like 2 custodes model
Sounds a bit like some necron bullshittery
people apparently think it's necron stuff
but like normal ass necron guns wouldn't justify the emp snatching them
Ik Adrathic is different
But I like Volkite because it's similar to like
30's scifi
Laser guns
Reminds me of the guns that the aliens use in War of the Worlds
Volkite is literally the Mars Attacks martian guns
And it's very telling that the Imperium used them as their main weapons for a while
CHOOM
Excited to see how SM2 handles it
To the people and xenos that they encounter in the Great Crusade
It’s a pretty ideal weapon for Nids
They are the invaders
Inb4 plasma but red
They are the ones who disintegrate people
this is basically what it does
lol
They are the ones who probe people weirdly
I expect it’ll be like Sunshot from Destiny at least
just uh more faster
They are the alien invaders
He died a hero
It's a classic role reversal
Yes we got it the first time
Y'know the Laser Gun from Wolfenstein
uhh
This thing
That's what I expect Volkite to be
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I expect especially since it’s a pistol it’ll be similar to plasma just with an aoe detonation on kill
And faster travel time
the sound design for this gun is literally porn
IK people say "X thing is better than sex"
But this sound
is better than sex
Especially when used against Nazi's
sounds like something someone who hasn’t had sex would say
But it does sound cool yes
||We're warhammer fans, of course we're virgins||

jk
to be fair its wolfenstein
its orgasmic both on the visual scale and sound department
False, your mom exists
But yeah that's basically what I expect Volkite to be
As long as it has the CHOOM noise
Warhammer is usually good in the sound department tbh
It's why I love Darktide so much
I expect it’ll be fine
so like, why are the volkite guns in SM2 called neo-volkite?
Because they’re the knockoff version Cawl has made
ah figures
Cheaper to manufacture but they haven’t quite made it beyond pistols yet as far as we’ve seen
It’ll probably be really good at killing trash mobs and hordes but less effective against big boy targets
Basically
Cawl is the only person who actually makes shit now
He maybe an asshole and overconfident
But his confidence is definitely backed up by a lot
Unfortunately on tabletop it's basically just the noballs version of a Plasma pistol
PSCHEW—BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
absolutely glorious
Yeah basically only there if you need devastating wound
I was thinking of having a Neo Volkite pistol for shits and giggles
in Darktide
But then I realized that it would either be overpowered or fucking boring
prob a mix of both
Overpowered and boring?
Aye, if it was lore accurate it would basically be a portal 2 laser beam in a gun
Is retirement out of the guard actual retirement or can an interested party in need of your skills drag you back to work?
Like some general centuries into their career is recruited by a xenos inquisititor to help deal with a big orc problem due to their experience
Can they say no at that point?
Saying no to an inquisitor is a brave thing and a privilege few can survive, let alone afford
An interested party can drag you back unless if you're like
Old
Like
"Even with Rejuvanant my skin looks like raisins" old
It depends as always
But yes an Inquisitor is gonna be able to request almost anything
IK Cain is said to be dead.
But I think he's just retired and he's just said to be dead so he can finally rest on his laurels for once
Basically there are only four types that can go against an Inquistor
- Another Inquistor
- Custodes
- A primarch
- The Emperor if he came back alive
Anyone can
Ye big old depends
How good an idea it is varies
Although tbf First Founding chapters can also give the middle finger to the Inquisition and get away with it
Although not without some damage
It depends again
There’s a lot of inquisitors with a wide variety of power and friends
A Custodes can probably deny an Inquistor since they're the Emperor's word in place of the Emperor
A custodes can simply ignore the request
What matters more is who can kill the other
So even their authority on paper is above
Yeah more just talking about on paper tbh
At the end of the day what matters more is who has bigger guns
Since again, technically you can get away with it if you manage to kill em
Dead inquisitors tell no tales
But generally the fear of the ordos is enough for most people and higher up levels don’t want to start something
But sometimes, they do
Im decently sure an inquisitor can put a callidus assassin on you if you refuse and theyre upset enough about it
Eh, months of shame is a better comparison
Generally it's similar to being a Commissar.
Not in terms of rank, but in terms of
If you are a complete asshole
You will not last long
If you are not a complete asshole
You have a better chance at lasting ling
Generally Commissars who are really trigger-happy suddenly suffer from
"accidents"
Same with Inquisitors who are trigger happy assholes
Going to have to get approval from the assasinorum but it’s possible lol
Also I love the Inquistor Ordos
There is literally just an Ordos for fucking everything
Yea, inquisitors who do "Too much" typically get dealt with, usually by a fellow Inquisitor
and it's not always because they're going heretical, it could just be because they're pissing people off
Or more trouble than they're worth
There is specifically an Ordos that takes care of misuse of Exterminatus
Apparently 70% of Inquisitors that call their first one die soon after
It’s more like 90%
even atoma is providing for the imperium while being chalk full of chaos
its like amazon employees being forced to pee in bottles but even worse
art imitates life........
Those are the delivery drivers. Someone even sold the pee bottles on Amazon too.
Where would you rather be? Atoma or an amazon warehouse?
atoma
atoma
atoma
Same
atoma
man
I can't believe amazon is at least 39000 years ahead!

Why are psykers called freaks anyway? Do they just behave in a strange way?
they are mutants
abhuman is the more proper term
they're also extremely dangerous which is why in-universe they're treated as outcasts
they are extremely dangerous when they don't have controls of their powers and can literally become a flash portal for demons
even those that have proper mastering control on their own still have a chance of violently exploding or turning into an apartment
i joke
They just become abominations of war
psykers are comparitively rare among humans as humans aren't as biologically developed as eldar
but the natural end result of SOME people being psykers is that eventually humanity will be a psyker race
That and there weird
Yes
so is 14 a lot of armour
Is that the armor value? Or the armor points?
in asking because i realized the old bunker terrain piece has rules in HH
the one i bought
They hate us unfortunately.
Oh okay
Just because sometimes we involuntarily mutter the Litany of Protection any time we're unconsciousness doesn't make us weird 🗣️
While your there you should read spicula launchers rules and try to comprehend them
But yeah, psykers are basically comprehensively tortured and brutalized while in the Scholastia Psykana. Side effects range from losing all the hair on your body, to being stabbed with thousands of pin-pricks all over your body, to screaming in pain so intensely, you destroy your vocal cords and rely on an augmetic.
Psyker are hated cause they're using Chaos as their weapon. And they're really dangerous and different from other people
They tend to be unpleasant in general
Tbf it's hard to be pleasant when daemons are constantly clawing at your brain
Like they have to be on guard even when they sleep
Only 1 episode atm
the first one is uh about as generic as you can get
ep2 looks interesting though
All praise the thingy
This a warhammer plus thingy?
The animation was good but the story was whatever
Yeah literally this
its a bit too wanky for me but it had good scenery and dialogue
mostly anyway
I think it was hilarious though how people were shocked the ultramarine was an asshole and assumed all Ultras are just good people
When can we get slop that isnt just “good enough”
When we get any content that isnt just marines killing nameless mooks
once Astartes II comes out I recon
The fact that we could have had that almost 2 years ago fucking infuriates me
I'm still very much sure it is being worked on
they really are milking this shit for all its worth
Nah its deffo already done
the guy that made it is literally working on non 40k projects atm lol
you can go look at his patreon
I have but doing Patreon stuff on the side is no indicator that Astartes II is done / not being worked on
Astartes is his day job now instead of the Patreon side stuff it used to be
Remember the eisenhorn series announced way back? We technically dont have any announcements that it isnt cancelled
Because that one was definitely cancelled
the one before amazon deal was made?
The one before warhammer plus
well yeah that too applies
Like other franchises don’t milk their poster boys this much
I assume most if not all ultras are anal assholes about most things
it has been 5 years since the very first "I'm working on this Eisenhorn project" and then silence, I wouldn't still say it's cancelled. It was before the Amazon deal so I'm sure it has changed things one way or another though
Its fine i just want variety tbh
like the upcoming Love Death Robots thing also looks great
Well yeah, that’s all I want
i just wish it was something else lol
Like I get it, space marines are the money maker
It was announced back in 2019
yes, 5 years ago as I said
That is most definitely cancelled lol
they are basically the most memorable thing in 40k to most mindless audiences so it makes sense but eh lol
But your setting is so much deeper and more complex, and allows for so much more
a big dude in armor is usually the safest bet in most things
I mean it’s a classic
Normally i am a sucker for that stuff
I just wish they’d focus on baseline humanity more
yeah but you have to be invested a minimum to know more than spehs marins
Same it’s just done to death in 40K
But the way GW forces primaris into everything kinda ruined the power fantasy for me
Fair, it’s how people get brought in
How so? I’m not a marine guy so I don’t get it
I dont hate primaris, i just think its gay to pretend firstborn only exist in 30k
I just hope after Amazon show we get more varied content after they show they can be profitable and feel more people in
this is basically what i mean yeah
we never explore the life of non-faction stuff in animations that much lol
wish granted but it's AoS
Based.
horrible tragedy
Good then
also you say this while ironically one of the best shows on WH plus atm is Blacktalon

probably because the animators actually got paid
Angels of death was decent i heard wasnt it?
As usual people don't understand
Uhhhh
Well not animation wise
if you like awkward mocap and shaky cam yes
It was good
the story of blacktalon is a bit depressing though
Well yeah because being a stormcast sucks lol
he should've kept the sylized look
neave how many stabs in the neck did she get

Neave's story is pretty fucked up lmao
hid the awful distinct source engine feel and look well
hell no
Hell nah
helsreach's first episodes are a fucking eyesore
legit hurts my eyes to look at
the brightness and the strobe effects are nuts
You said it
Yep just holy shit
eye issue
BRUH
does that mean that an iron jaw can become a storm cast
the first episodes looked so much better than the last
unless gorkamorka doesn't like doing that
Bro....
someone shoot this man
the last episodes were just SFM slop
no shut up
at first
Do you think they will use the animation style for black talon again
Lord knows it's the closest to vox machina warhammer has
they should make an official 40k animation fully done in Gmod in the OG shitpost goofy style
In terms of animation style
that would sell i think
Gotta find the 3d models from joaz though
And good luck finding his models
Fucking hope not
A heart-breaking piece of cinema, looking at the life and death of the floor crawling supervillain.
Directed by Martin Scorsese
Executive Producer: B&Q
#Podel #Animation #Spiderman #Brick
Why not?
Because cringe
yeah the opening style of Helsreach is just bad
i get why he did it and it being from a lack of resources and just it being hard to animate but eh
its just aged terribly
I can do that style in photobooth in an ipad
^
like i usually call stuff an Eyesore as a joke
but this legit was just painful to watch at times lol
There is also the first few episodes of hammer and bolter
The prime presentation of a powerpoint said the community
Honestly the thing is the animation style for it is great
its that the animation itself sucks balls
because again underbudget lol
Art style in a game or a show doesn't matter when the animations don't work with it
As always the spider-man spider-verse movies always is a good example of this
I mean not really
Ever heard of clutch cargo?
You can still work with limited frames, although how little until it isnr considered animation depends on the person
yeah the spiderverse movies were made WITH the low FPS style in mind
it was to make it so that any frame you pause looks like its from a comic book page etc its a very good stylistic choice
with Hammer and bolter its very much due to a lack of funds and time
Still upset at the whole batman beyond thing
We could have gotten a batman beyond movie
WITH INQUE
While kevin conroy was still alive
As always companies that can we don't have the budget literally sitting on money
😭
Like you guys have a lot of money you can spare why not increase the budget of the animation team
Yeah its not like GW is not sitting on money lol
His death was genuinely upsetting to me
Same but people deffo overdid it imo
like the suicide squad circlejerk was legit embarrassing
Like fuck, it hit hard
Man people overreact too much nowadays
Him also coming out as a queer person prior to it tbh
i legit would have never expected it
but it adds a huge light to most of his works

Probably my favorite work he did that isnt batman was venture bros
Same guy is just iconic in anything hes in
Captain sunshine was absolutely brilliant
best batman parody in awhile lol
and i say this as a person thats been very jaded to the character for awhile
Sidenote
People who say “bruce wayne is a mask” should go hit there head in the nearest wall
One of hte prime reasons why i hate batman fans
just shut the fuck up lol
MUH PREP TIME MUH BROKEN MIND
No wonder kevin conroy was famous he had the magical william dafoe head shape guaranteed to make you famous
DEAD PARENTS
Batman soloes 40k with prep time
And i can also cook up a puppy steak with prep time so it's not that impressive
Batman soloes your mom in bed (sex)
thanks for adding the sex part
otherwise id assume he beats her to death
I MEAN SORRY
near death
batman doesnt kill
🙂
Paralyzed from the leg down and can no longer walk
Lmfao god
Oh wait just paralyzed
Batman punching joker nonstop is a favorite
the robot chicken one?
The telltale one
DAMN IT
honestly telltale batman is peak so i cant complain
prob my favorite joker in anything ever because hes actually an original itteration for once
almost snore myself to death when people choose the generic option where he just becomes the character we all know
vigilante J is best
Im a sucker for a funny joker
https://youtu.be/3mlCnDAAu-c?si=yMJVT1Unq8nmQI5P batman paralyzing me from the leg down after i stole money to hopefully fund my dog's cancer treatment
Beating the bricks off the Joker all night never gets old. Thanx goes out to VisioAuri for showing off the original version
LMFAO I KNOW THAT VID
him actually trying to be a decent person makes it even more amusing too
Bored of the same old puppy killer and Barbara gordon tenderizer
^
Bruce visiting him at the asylum in the post credits and J getting happy is just man
so good i love it
