[sour hornet]

casually yapping to the 10ft tall glistening golden demigod

thinks the custodian isn't listening, only for them to recall the entire 3 hour yap session (abridged) with perfect clarity

[tough haven]

Me when I see someone who genuinely praises and worships the imperium:

“Madness can take many forms, but none so contemptible as a man’s belief of in mythology of his own making, a world view buttressed by dogmatic desperation invariably leads to singleminded fanaticism, and a need to do terrible things in the name of righteousness. This man is an animal, Rabid, Destructive, and incapable of nuanced understanding. He. Must. Be. Put. Down.”

[storm jungle]

Me cleaning up after I kill the latest Imperium apologist

[tough haven]

Imperial “apologists” when they don’t want to apologize for unironically liking the imperium as a system of governance (suddenly they don’t like apologies anymore)

[storm jungle]

[crystal forum]

i thought we could modify guns

idk where i got that idea

[storm jungle]

lmao

owned

[winter vessel]

i'm kinda glad we don't

[outer tusk]

[hallow plover]

Titus is based. Game is challenging on highest difficulty

[storm jungle]

You are telling me Hard difficulties are hard?

[arctic talon]

https://gyazo.com/0cbcefeabc6bbcb802548e10d7126ca1

Lore accurate ripper swarm

Prolly would be worse because rippers in lore can have guns

[hallow plover]

I mean, how can the journalist beat the game on hard mode if it's hard?

[storm jungle]

💀

[storm jungle]

LMFAO

holy shit HES DEAD

[hallow plover]

https://tenor.com/view/bad-at-game-gif-21316651

[arctic talon]

I love this

[winter vessel]

this is a depiction of kindergartners swarming their Teachers

[storm jungle]

LMFAO

[storm jungle]

i had to im sorry

holy fuck this is hilarious

[fallen plaza]

This isn't old lore lol

Those female SM were actually a home brew chapter published by a magazine

[storm jungle]

My guy really went 3 hours back to "akshually"d that one specific message among anything else

[paper haven]

Same energy as the Door Stuck clip

[opaque coyote]

My classmates when I chew gum during lunch

[storm jungle]

ikr lmao

[storm jungle]

"Will you share that with the rest of the class?"

"..."

"Seize him."

[paper haven]

Did you bring em out for everyone?
Actually, bitch, yes I did

[opaque coyote]

pulls out the XL gum package from Costco

[paper haven]

I used to sell gum at school

I had a lot of it in my backpack and could, in fact, share with the class

Teacher just said I had to stop chewing gum anyway

[fallen plaza]

When I was a kid I wanted to prank my brother so everytime I ate gum I would wrap it back carefully to look like there was still gum in it

Then I would put it back in the fridge and giggle silently as he did get one

[paper haven]

Same crime as taking all of the sodas out of a box but leaving the box in the fridge

[fallen plaza]

Mischievous

[opaque coyote]

You put gum in the fridge?

[crystal forum]

zi

zimmer

[gray umbra]

if you ever get gum on your clothes, you can run a ice cube over it to solidify it and get it off

[cinder pivot]

[vocal drum]

so if the warp is hell is there a heaven in this universe?

is it wrong to even call the warp hell?

i mean it has demons and monsters

[crystal forum]

what if it gets in my fabulous hair

[crystal forum]

no

[crystal forum]

kinda. it's its own thing

but it is hellish for mortals

[queen laurel]

nah no such thing as a positive space in warhammer there is only the material world and the warp

[crystal forum]

warp beasts love it. it's all relative

i wouldn't even call the warp inherently evil

[queen laurel]

It used to be calm

But you know the war in heaven did the funny

[crystal forum]

i think the general idea of why there's no good chaos god is because in 40k the bad is just so much more prominent that the bad chaos gods would kill any good one

also grimdark

[arctic talon]

The warp is the only afterlife there is

[crystal forum]

i feel like the whole "go to the warp when you die" thing is just used to enshittify the setting

[arctic talon]

I mean

It’s the sea of souls

[crystal forum]

it's not even an afterlife since your soul immediately gets devoured

[arctic talon]

Your soul goes to the sea of souls

It’s an afterlife if you’re a strong psyker

Unfortunately

There’s ways for souls to “survive” it

But you’ll prolly just get your soul eaten/you dissipate into nothing

[crystal forum]

should have just had lore be that your soul just suffers forever smh

might as well make my headcannon that the devoured souls still scream

[fallen plaza]

What

[crystal forum]

kratos

wait didn't they announce more tanks for HH

im their shitty roadmap

[arctic talon]

They just said Tanks!

So yeah more tanks

[crystal forum]

hell yeah

hopefully not more sicarans

[vocal drum]

thats friggin depressing

[arctic talon]

Well

Soul dissipation is better then what a psyker gets

Potential eternal torment

[fallen plaza]

Probably

I've only glanced it then winced in cringe

[dusk patrol]

Games really impressed me so far I’ll say

[thick cedar]

Where is atoma located in the galaxy?

[fallen plaza]

In the atoma system

[thick cedar]

and wheres that located?
Basically im asking if its on the shitty side or the less shitty side the warp scar

[paper haven]

Honestly, no clue

[fallen plaza]

Where atoma is

[thick cedar]

I do like the unintended contrast between this and darktides load screen

theirs has colour, the lighting works, no loose cords

masozi needs to fix her ship

[paper haven]

Is that the multiplayer screen?

For SM2

[thick cedar]

idk

its from sm2

i think its the loading screen

[paper haven]

Looks pretty cool

[thick cedar]

Space Marine 2. Just came out today

[paper haven]

I thought it released on the 9th?

[thick cedar]

might be early access

[paper haven]

Makes sense

[thick cedar]

https://www.ign.com/articles/warhammer-40000-space-marine-2-global-release-times-confirmed

[flint tiger]

Thats the co op/operations loading screen

[soft thunder]

I assume there's no tech marines in SM2?

[dense salmon]

Not yet anyways

[dusk patrol]

I don’t expect it but there is a lot of cool stuff they could do with it imo

Dropping turrets or buffing the team

Resupplying and boosting the weapons

[sour hornet]

Moebian Domain, Segmentum Solar, Imperium Sanctus

It's on the Terra side of the galaxy, so it's less fucked.

[winter vessel]

So I finished the story, took me about 7 hours including breaks in between.

1.) that was worth the $89.99 I spent just for advanced access, merry Christmas to me I guess

2.) Chaplain you sonuvabitch

3.) The Redemptor Dreadnought made me pause and laugh for a minute.

[oblique nymph]

lore of thunderhammers?

[opaque coyote]

Unlike in Darktide, most power weapons usually have a constant power field

Except of course

Thunder Hammers

Besides that they're what you expect

Big hammer

Smash heretics

They die

Simple as

[oblique nymph]

ours probably has bad batteries

[opaque coyote]

It's mostly due to balance tbh

Although Thammers actually work like in canon.

You have to turn on the power field before swinging

[oblique nymph]

duh

but it makes sense

[opaque coyote]

Unfortunately they really need a buff

[storm jungle]

Power weapons in lore also have "activation studs" to turn on their powerfield.

They arent always active

[oblique nymph]

yeah mine doesnt have a LED tghat turns on sorry

[opaque coyote]

Power Weapons in general are special in that their field literally disrupts matter

Basically

"Fuck your molecules"

Which allows them to basically cleave through Terminator armor like butter* (depending on how powered it is)

[opaque coyote]

Have you tried doing the ancient rite of

"turning it on and off again"

And then lathering it in olive oil (extra virgin)

[rocky gale]

I have altered the canon, pray I do not alter it any further.

[lunar gulch]

I have budget for about 8 of these

Should I stay loyal?

[storm jungle]

its not about loyalty

its about who has the best drip

[fallen plaza]

Are you actually gonna get eight of these kek

[storm jungle]

OH WAIT THEY ARE PHONECASES

I was like "are they printing out banners"

[fallen plaza]

Totally knew the entire time

[queen laurel]

Every single one of them had black spots on the top left

how

[storm jungle]

ITS SMALL BLACK DOTS LEAVE ME BE

[fallen plaza]

Smh dilara

[queen laurel]

No

[fallen plaza]

Should have noticed

[storm jungle]

GUH

[queen laurel]

you too

[fallen plaza]

Nah

[rocky gale]

Damn how many phones you got?

[hallow plover]

You don't have 8 phones?

[crystal forum]

one phone for every wife

[lunar gulch]

Just one, gotta change the case when I feel like it

Like if I feel extra autistic I’ll use dark angel

[crisp heath]

Alpha legion should be one of those holographic ones

That change depending on where you look at it

[small grail]

how strong is morty the plague primarch

[lunar gulch]

Mid

[storm jungle]

^

hes like

the most defeated primarch in the lore

almost 6-7 losses lol

[queen laurel]

also the final boss that you beat the *** off in demon hunter

[raven stone]

It’s what being an avatar of despair does to you.
You enjoy things failing despite not wanting to fail.

[lunar gulch]

Disappointed by his father and his son

[queen laurel]

playing chaos gate then you humble his ass

[hallow plover]

Stop it! Morty should be strong but he's always matched against OC mary sues

[raven stone]

He has been beaten by both Guilliman and Khan.
Neither are the most combatant of Primarchs.

[hallow plover]

(Even tho his misery fits )

[lunar gulch]

And death guards are known for their “strength and resilience”

Lol

[queen laurel]

bro decided to throw a plague monk at me

[hallow plover]

Yes yes

[near wasp]

He won against gman but big e decided to spank him. And Khan still died after banishing morty

[raven stone]

Ok fair enough

[small grail]

sickest armour ive seen in a 40k game by far

[lunar gulch]

Still, that battle with khan probably traumatized Morty for ages

[near wasp]

It was probably an ego blow but ehhhh morty losing to juiced up gman will probably leave him with mental scars that will never heal

Especially cause Papa is spanking him for letting his brother torch his garden

[lunar gulch]

Imagine your dad said through your brother that you are a loser and failure, and told you to go back to your new stinky stepdad

[hallow plover]

He did say that he might be redeemable someday... after a bath and few more defeats

[lunar gulch]

My brother in Throne a bath is not even close to what he needs

[vocal drum]

today i learned orks are like sayains and get stronger from fighting and getting older

[lunar gulch]

Not only from fighting, simply the thought of incoming battles can hype them up and result in muscle growth

[vocal drum]

how do you remove orks from a planet

if by accident spores land on a planet

[queen laurel]

completely burning everything

[vocal drum]

possible to burn it away?

oh

[lunar gulch]

You burn everything

[queen laurel]

the planet down to bedrock

[lunar gulch]

I mean everything

[vocal drum]

why cant u just take that spore and remove it

with ur hands or something

[lunar gulch]

You won’t know if you missed a spot

[vocal drum]

one tiny spore can cause a whole planet invastion

a tiny spore?

[lunar gulch]

And few months later a grown ass pork will be born

And more after

[queen laurel]

it makes its own unique ecosystem around it where things like this can exist

[queen laurel]

and oh yeah even the less advanced orks can make a titan powered by steam

[rocky gale]

and it's never just one spore, Orks are constantly spewing them everywhere

[vocal drum]

i know, im reading about orks now but i didnt know about that str part lol

[queen laurel]

yep

[vocal drum]

how are tyranids worse than orks then

seems like they are worse no

[queen laurel]

they practically the most numerous

[vocal drum]

orks like, tyranids but with magic

[queen laurel]

Even more than orks

[rocky gale]

Tyranids have a greater capacity to adapt and are more intelligent

[queen laurel]

And don't underestimate their bio prowess they can literally make giant insects large enough to rival titans

oh yeah they also have this thing called shadow of the warp

read about it and you will understand why these guys are horrifying

[lunar gulch]

A ork spore can develop into a fully functional ork bio, spawning lil creatures like squigs, gretchins and they are like gardeners to make orks

[vocal drum]

thats hilarious

[lunar gulch]

They’re just big scary mushroom bios

Grows like crazy

[vocal drum]

mushroom bio monsters essentially

[queen laurel]

yeah just big bloodthirsty mushrooms

[vocal drum]

wtf imagine being int he guard and told to fight orks

[rocky gale]

Most planets that get an Ork infection are never truly free of it afterwards, they just have to constantly keep the Orks population in check and stop them from stockpiling weapons

[vocal drum]

wtf thats not fair

[queen laurel]

a warboss which is the leaders of these guys on average is 10 feet the size of a fully grown Ogryn

[lunar gulch]

A mushroom so big and angry and strong, one of them literally defeated a Primarch before

That Primarch was considered to be one of the strongest ever

[vocal drum]

wonder the people who made the orks, wonder if they can undo them if they were around

[lunar gulch]

Nah

They won’t

[vocal drum]

crazy u make a weapon now its running loose on the galaxy lol

[queen laurel]

the Old Ones?

they can't

[lunar gulch]

Orks are perfect

And honestly they are the only race in this universe that is actually enjoying their life

[queen laurel]

yeah they even reincarnate

[vocal drum]

they enjoy the misery and war

[queen laurel]

they live for battle

[lunar gulch]

Fight humie, life guud

[queen laurel]

an ork can get a growth boost by the respect of other orks he gets by surviving battles

[lunar gulch]

Big blue tin can comes in, fight tin cans, life guud

Basically, you fight, you get stronger; you think about a big fight, you get stronger; your boyz love you because you strong, you get stronger

[crisp heath]

Do ork’s like fighting whitescars or absolutely hate it?

[raven stone]

The only way to slow an Ork infestation is to KILL THEM WITH FIRE

[crisp heath]

White scars come in real fast and hit real hard which ork’s like, but then they leave before the fight really starts

[queen laurel]

Evil Sunz definitely do

it's the guys that use red goes faster

[raven stone]

Orks love fighting anything in a straightforward fight.
They only do not like sneaky ambushes (the devastating type that leaves them dead before they can do much, not the “ambush as a pop up surprise” type, which they do like because FIGHTIN)

[queen laurel]

that's why a lot of their vehicles are hit and running very quick

[crisp heath]

So they hate the raven guard then

Woe, 5 million ambushes upon ye

[queen laurel]

something like eldar

[raven stone]

Pretty much.
IIRC Kayvaan Shrike managed to scare the Orks

Because his ambushes were the type that didn’t give them a chance to even fight back, and left no survivors at all.

[queen laurel]

hit and run and basically not fighting them fair well in their view of fair anyway

[lunar gulch]

Tell ghazghkull that it was Abaddon who killed Yarrick

And he should totally start a wagh! against the black legion

This is not imperial propaganda

[crystal forum]

@arctic talon look top left they wrote death korp instead of veteran guard

[rose thorn]

Oh hey metal slug

[rose thorn]

What the fuck is angels of death

[crystal forum]

i should commission a 3d artist to make a metal slug leman russ

[rose thorn]

Also they forgot strike force Justin

Justian

[crystal forum]

it's just a dumb competitive killteam thing

[rose thorn]

Yeha but that was a bespoke killteam last edition

[queen laurel]

Damn it is close

[rose thorn]

And what the fuck is angels of death still lmao

[fallen marsh]

Space Marines....

[crystal forum]

it's classified now apparently

which is an even dumber way to name something than bespoke

[rose thorn]

But that’s not even a killteam, is it a stand in for the intercessor killteam?

[storm jungle]

[rose thorn]

WHICH ISNT HERE

[crystal forum]

you really like that video huh dilara

[storm jungle]

its hilarious im sorry

[rose thorn]

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

[storm jungle]

god those rippers are so wack

[fallen marsh]

Most likely they folded SM kill teams into it.

[rose thorn]

I looked it up

And it was a mission pack

Themed off the show

[paper haven]

Rip

[crystal forum]

oh yeah the heros pack thing?

[near wasp]

Got a buddy learning tabletop 40k and poor guy is going through it

[paper haven]

See what I did there?

[crystal forum]

this mission is annoying btw

[rose thorn]

That was strike team jerican or what ever

[storm jungle]

I did, you get a medal for it 🏅

[rose thorn]

The angels of death mission pack use the first born

[storm jungle]

try it with bots trust me

[crystal forum]

i'll be honest darktide guns feel way better than SM2 ones

[rose thorn]

And a bunch of genestealer aoclytes

[paper haven]

https://tenor.com/view/ascension-sponge-bob-gif-15077046

[crystal forum]

bots save me all the time

they're kinda broken lol

[storm jungle]

Lmao noted

[crystal forum]

they just never do the mission

[storm jungle]

ill use this to my advantage

[paper haven]

Day one patch should fix that

[crystal forum]

on hard i just ignored the enemies and did the objectives while the bots revived me

[rose thorn]

This just fucking sucks imma be real

Also shout out to the most expensive killteam in the game

[crystal forum]

it's tournament

[rose thorn]

Chaos cults

[rose thorn]

Yeha so they are the only ones gonna get rule updates lmao

[crystal forum]

as long as they keep updating rules for normal gameplay everything is fine

GW trying to form their shitty esports is annoying though

like fuck off

[rose thorn]

Bless warcry

adds worse warcry bespoke warband in the game
it’s really fun

[crystal forum]

as far as i understand they will keep updating rules

even when a box becomes no longer tournamentable

[arctic talon]

Yeah

This is just an odd thing imo

[crystal forum]

the only things they've removed is kill teams that were generic

[arctic talon]

Most killteams don’t get balance changes in the first place lol

[rose thorn]

Lmao

[crystal forum]

im guessing they're just preparing for when they have so many killteams that they'll need to regularly update stuff

OR

[arctic talon]

I mean it’s true 💀

Look at poor blades of khaine lol

[crystal forum]

they'll start balancing according to tournament results, which would be the worst timeline

[arctic talon]

The team has been so overwhelmingly meh since release

[arctic talon]

Tbf GW does take that into consideration

[rose thorn]

I heard the box is great for main game, it was the only way those ancient ass models would get an update

[arctic talon]

Oh the team is super fun lol

The issue is blades of khaine suffer from crippling silver bulletness

They do one thing well exclusively

[rose thorn]

They get super bulleted or they are a silver bullet

[arctic talon]

Which is murdering you

They are a silver bullet

They fucking murder everything

Lol

Everything is focused around murder

They’ll prolly be better in KT3

Since they’re reducing objective count

[rose thorn]

Ah

[crystal forum]

so wait the only factor that decides how long a team is supported in tournament is how long it has existed?

that's dumb as fuck

[arctic talon]

No

Bruh

Oh wait that

In that case yeah

[crystal forum]

not that i care about tournament players

but doesnt this mean they have to buy new shit every so often

[arctic talon]

Yep

And most killteam tournament players

Exclusively play a single team

[crystal forum]

fuck

wait

From now on, every kill team will receive consistently updated rules for two editions – updates will be quarterly, while smaller adjustments may be made as required. Every team will remain in the product range for four full seasons – seasons generally last 12 months, though they can be longer or shorter as required. This is to ensure a manageable range that we can keep in stock

all these words to say a kill team will no longer be supported after 4 years

and the asterix goes to

• Of course, many of the units will live on in the Warhammer 40,000 range

so yeah i guess vet guard and orks are going away

For example, Kommandos will be Classified throughout the first season of the new edition. The box will leave the Kill Team range when the season comes to a close

[queen laurel]

Kommandos seem very popular huh

[arctic talon]

Kommandos are really fun

really strong

[crystal forum]

yet they're leaving because old??

what the fuck

[arctic talon]

yeah honestly I don't get the tournement stuff

this isn't even legends

because GW will continue balancing the teams 💀

so like ?????

I don't get it

[crystal forum]

no wolf

they're literally removing the boxes from the store

when the season ends

"the box will leave the kill team range when the season comes to a close"

it's straight up being deleted

[arctic talon]

these units are literally in 40k though

so they're just getting repackaged for 40k

I guess

since rn Killteam stuff comes in their own killteam box

[crystal forum]

which fucking sucks

[arctic talon]

which is really fucking big

• has additional shit in it

[queen laurel]

Are they broken

[arctic talon]

uh

[crystal forum]

if i wanted to play 40k i'd buy 40k shit

[arctic talon]

sort of?

[queen laurel]

so they're just about above average

well that means they're doing well enough i suppose

[arctic talon]

they aren't on the level of shit like nemesis claw or Brood brothers

brood brothers is arguably a fucking mistake of a killteam

you can have 10 dudes + the patriarch

which is a choice

[crystal forum]

why GW decided to announce that popular killteams will be yeeted in a community post about fucking tournaments i will not understand

[arctic talon]

they won't be removed from the model range

is the thing

so like ????

I''m not even sure what the point of this is

[crystal forum]

then what does that quote mean

For example, Kommandos will be Classified throughout the first season of the new edition. The box will leave the Kill Team range when the season comes to a close

[arctic talon]

They're getting repackaged

for 40k

thats what it means

the box will lose the killteam branding

[crystal forum]

so they're losing kill team rules??

[arctic talon]

no

[crystal forum]

what the fuck

[arctic talon]

this just seems

like a really weird fucking inane thing

I guess its to save shelf space????

because the killteam boxes are fucking huge

[crystal forum]

so

From now on, every kill team will receive consistently updated rules for two editions – updates will be quarterly

does this mean they're being legend'd after two editions?

[arctic talon]

Not really?

sort of?

killteam rarely gets balance changes in the first place lol

this doesn't change much imo

unless you're a tournment player in which case this will suck lol

[fallen plaza]

@plush mason

Were you a psyker in my round?

[queen laurel]

@arctic talon "blood bowl is fun but I've finally gotten in a team and we're fighting chaos Dwarfs this shouldn't be ba-"

[arctic talon]

HASHUT HASHUT HASHUT HASHUT HASHUT

[queen laurel]

THEY LOOK SICK

[fallen plaza]

Holy shit

HASHUT! HASHUT! HASHUT!

[outer wave]

Their arms are so short on those bull centaurs

[paper haven]

It's kinda cute

[queen laurel]

you want to say that in front of them?

[outer wave]

Yes.

[snow fern]

HASHUT!!!

[queen laurel]

OK i'm gonna scrape what's left of you OK

[paper haven]

Sure, but I'd want a polearm

So I can do the whole, holding them back while they swing themselves out thing

[outer wave]

Thanks bro gonna need after they trample me into the dirt flatter than a coin

[fallen plaza]

Your an ork you should not be shilling for these fellas

[paper haven]

Nothing says we can't be friends outside of combat

[queen laurel]

i know a friend that works as an apothecary so

i'm fine

[queen laurel]

yeah blood bowl is funnily enough the most peaceful warhammer setting

[snow fern]

all conflict is resolved by blood sport

[paper haven]

Blood bowl is funny

[snow fern]

It's like The Purge if it was good

Shame BB3 is ass

[queen laurel]

yep they did fix some things but the single player is straight up unplayable

You're telling me you finally gave me a campaign where I can pick my own team of race but I can't even give them super stats?

like i just want to have fun in the sandbox man

[crystal forum]

it's like the only warhammer setting that references real world stuff too lol

@fallen plaza hear me out, what if you play militia in HH and bring a shit ton of bunkers as friendly structures

[fallen plaza]

I not familiar with fortification rules in this ed, so for all i know they might be too bad even for narrative play

[crystal forum]

you can bring them as friendly structures is all i remember

and i like defensive lines

in an unhealthy way

[fallen plaza]

If you want defensive lines

Can militia deploy aegis defence lines?

Or is that just a solar aux thing?

[crystal forum]

yes

all can

[fallen plaza]

Good

Then use those, maybe.

[crystal forum]

it even has the rules for the gun on it

which is funny

[fallen plaza]

Perfect

You know what to do

[crystal forum]

and i can even use the bunker i bought as a recast

[fallen plaza]

😁

[crystal forum]

this thing

cant take the image from the wiki because FUCK THE WIKI

[fallen plaza]

Fuck them

You cant copy paste there images

[crystal forum]

i genuinely dont know if it's intentional or just incompetence

dog shit website

[fallen plaza]

Wouldn’t surprise me if it was both

[crystal forum]

btw

omg fuck me why cant i just

this fucking pack

[fallen plaza]

Guh

[crystal forum]

costs less than the strongpoint recast i bougjt

that's just 1 fucking model

[fallen plaza]

You got swindled

[crystal forum]

nah

couldn't find accurate 3d model

[fallen plaza]

I bet i could

[crystal forum]

try it

i can make my own bunkers

it's just angles

it's just i wanted a real model

[fallen plaza]

Tbh yeah

[crystal forum]

i'd make it more flak tower'y

with round pads hanging on the sides

for the anti air

[fallen plaza]

I’d rather just make my own design tbh

Bunkers dont need a lot of work to make them look 40k

[crystal forum]

i bet i can make better bunkers with CAD software

it's so simple to do

[fallen plaza]

Just this alone is fine

Knowing me, i’ll make it twice as big than it needs to be

[crystal forum]

i was literally about to post that same image but you said you wanted to do your own thing lol

[fallen plaza]

And this was my own thing kek

We are very original

😁

[crystal forum]

i can make that model in like 1 hour

it wont be good for printing but

[fallen plaza]

Well normally i like to go all out so I’d probably go overboard on some stuff

[fallen plaza]

Also

Weird question

I currently have this

[crystal forum]

there are no weird question just weird people

[fallen plaza]

Mechanicum land raider project

Its basically halted and i have no intention of completing it

But….

If you want i can hand you the files for you to mess with it

[crystal forum]

why

if you dont intend to work on it

[fallen plaza]

I feel bad leaving this work to rot

[crystal forum]

you think i can finish it?

[fallen plaza]

I can, its just i have lost my vision for it

[crystal forum]

we might have a problem if you can only send it as an STL or similar

[fallen plaza]

I can send it as a 3mf file

[crystal forum]

can you do a step file?

[fallen plaza]

Hopefully theres an online converter for that

But first let me check if my computer supports it

[crystal forum]

sadly it doesnt work like that

it's not a compatibility issue

it's the entire type of file

STL, 3MF and AMF all use "face" geometry shit

CAD software uses objects and shit

so like actual mathematical stuff idk how to describe it since i barely understand it

[fallen plaza]

So, basically, theres no easy way to do this

Is what this means

[crystal forum]

well i can try to learn how to mesh model with cad

but it's just clunky

i dont normally use vertices and meshes

send it to me anyways

i actually tried to learn mesh modelling a while ago

then i learned that there's literally no reason to do it in cad since it's straight up an inferior way to do stuff

[fallen plaza]

Fuck sake

Windows screenshot isnt working today

Out of all the fucking days

[fallen plaza]

Very well i’ll send

@crystal forum

this is the extent to what iv done with it

[wraith quartz]

Hey

I don't really keep track of my recaps, but the last thing I remember was understanding themechanical process in the cult mechanicus

[storm jungle]

you did get a good crash course i think

[wraith quartz]

Yeah, I'm just flushing some topics I never went over or forgor

On a manufactorum setting... Who oversees the infrastructure and machinery for a general weapons manufactorum? I.e. meltfab 17-3smthin

[storm jungle]

Another "it depends" situation

[wraith quartz]

Ah

[storm jungle]

Mechanicus ranks are way too diverse to really have one normal person doing it.

[fallen plaza]

My favorite word in this channel

[storm jungle]

but uh

shut the fuck up lol

[gray umbra]

diverse?

[storm jungle]

but most books stick to just "Overseer"

because like yeah the most basic one readers prob can understand is that

[gray umbra]

usually if they have an Arch prefix then they got status

[wraith quartz]

And that role could be assigned to anyone, emphasis on the word "anyone"

[storm jungle]

Nope.

It needs to be someone competent

and it depends on the importance of the role

like lets say you just get assigned to watch a gun manufacturing platform, thats pretty basic

compared to like say a factorum that makes plasma weapons, thats more high end etc

[celest dome]

'Normal' gun factories might even just be overseen by Gangs instead of the Admech directly

[storm jungle]

Yeah again too diverse to really have a basic template

[gray umbra]

Arch-Overseer

[celest dome]

Has to be someone competent to be put in this role
Or be someone that has enough backing to let them get the job through it
Or be someone who killed and took the job...

[gray umbra]

of graian forge something

[celest dome]

Arch Fabricator ?

[gray umbra]

yes

[celest dome]

Those are the Governor for Forge World

[wraith quartz]

Hence why I said that phrase "emphasis on the word anyone"

[celest dome]

Much higher than Indutry overseers

[wintry scarab]

What do you think the chances are they add an FOV slider to Sm2?

[celest dome]

How would we know

[wraith quartz]

But it's without a doubt that there would be a tech priest available to insure that everything is running in optimal parameters

[celest dome]

Not necessarily

There are Technica Guilds

And the 'lesser tech' production doesn't really need a Tech Priest to over see it

[wraith quartz]

Hmm

A simple recollection, in a blunt observation, tech priests are cyborg cultists.

[gray umbra]

essentially

they're a bunch of level 1 helpdesk techs who oversaturated the industry

[storm jungle]

they are tech monks and cultists yeah

[storm jungle]

also this lol

just with some sprinkle of boss-techpriests who can just have you killed like an amazon manager

[queen laurel]

Tech monks using electricity to replace the ki on their body for thunder strikes

[celest dome]

I'd love to see new Electro Monk variants

Maybe to feel toward other field of the Admech

[wraith quartz]

Why do they wear red robes and can they become completely metal?

[celest dome]

Cause Mars is red

[queen laurel]

They can't become completely metal

Because that's like becoming ai

[gray umbra]

maybe a brain in a body but not completely

[celest dome]

And can't really be 100% robot due to law

[queen laurel]

Yes but that's it

They can go completely ham on the implants as long as their brain is intact

They can install all of the extra memory banks all of that fancy stuff as long as the brain is braining

[wraith quartz]

Hmmm

So are there any restrictions or necessary status to have certain modifications?

[celest dome]

Wealth

[queen laurel]

Yeah only really money

[wraith quartz]

Ah

Makes sense

[queen laurel]

Getting that fancy plasma mounted arm cannon is going to cause you a lot of moolah

[gray umbra]

im assuming the only real restriction is if it's xenos/chaos tech

[celest dome]

Kinda, also new tech might be frowned upon if you wave it around

[queen laurel]

That too but with xenos tech you can kind of get away with it more

[gray umbra]

yeah thats a given

[queen laurel]

Chaos?

Off yourself now

[gray umbra]

"hello fellow tech priests, check this out"

its the daemonculaba

or wait

whatever that disease is

[wraith quartz]

Was also wondering outside of installation and prepaid purchases, I was assuming only certain ranks of tech priests can have specific augments.

[gray umbra]

obliterator virus

[queen laurel]

It's only really money because ranks don't matter when you buy stuff it's the cash

[wraith quartz]

Ok

[queen laurel]

If you can finesse your way into buying high quality implants for cheap

You would get them

[celest dome]

There are certain augments that are restricted in access, but those are quite rare cases, and more about select sects than being of specific ranks

Like the Electro Monks

[queen laurel]

Yeah most of the time though you can get an implant you need through just money

[wraith quartz]

[queen laurel]

An arm cannon that has the power of a leman russ cannon?

Just find some cash lying around and you have it

[celest dome]

Or have enough dirt on the Tech Priest that can instal it for you

[wraith quartz]

So their lifespan can be extended when having augments, or are there any drawbacks?

[dusk patrol]

Not if you’re not a bitch

[celest dome]

There aren't really any set drawback

[dusk patrol]

But some dorks don’t like losing their flesh

[queen laurel]

Yeah like the metal can corrode and rust but you can just replace them

[dusk patrol]

The stuff they make it out of isn’t really in danger of that either

[queen laurel]

Their practically immortal

[dusk patrol]

Unless you get shit quality stuff

[celest dome]

There are some that are used to create tumors outside off you body to cut of toxins for example

[wraith quartz]

Hmmm

[queen laurel]

Or just shove your brain in a vat of nutrients constantly keeping it running

[wraith quartz]

So when dealing with anything that's mechanical, electrical, etc. they're process boils down to:

[celest dome]

Well depend on the Tech Priest, some do know, some really don't know more than procedures

And honestly working on Modbus communication does make me feel like a Tech Priest

[shell mason]

me frfr

[celest dome]

I don't know what's going on, I'm afraid and angry

And I'm just trying to do thing against strings of characters that barely have any meaning for me

[wraith quartz]

Hmmm

So can all tech priests learn to fight or do they rely on their personal army the uuuuuuuuuuuuuhhuuuuughh.....

[celest dome]

Not all Tech Priest are millitant
And their main armed force are the Skitarii cohorts

It's just that as Warhammer is about war, we more often than not are following the story of some that are millitant

[opaque coyote]

I just realized Rebecca's gun hit Adam's Crotch

[celest dome]

Perspective ?

[opaque coyote]

She was literally shooting at his cyberdick bro

[celest dome]

Could be that she was shooting his face

[opaque coyote]

She was looking to maim

Unfortunately his dick is too strong

[wraith quartz]

I'm pretty sure both guns are just touching tips, but to each their own.

[opaque coyote]

ayo?

[wraith quartz]

Wait wait wait

[shell mason]

[opaque coyote]

HUEHUEHUE

Rebecca couldn't even handle the tip

What a shame

Does his position even make sense for the three angles we get

Wait yeah it does nvm

[arctic talon]

Usually the restrictions are based on who you know and what order you might be a part of and what those augments are

[bold rampart]

I don't know how to spell it

[winter vessel]

Gurlymurn and his Undominas Crusade

[storm jungle]

but yeah we dont know the exact date

but i assume its during it or after it

I SWEAR someone said it was during the 4th Tyrannic War but im not sure

[vocal drum]

is there a space marine 2 discord or do i just use this one?

https://discord.gg/spacemarine2

[torpid narwhal]

I like how the game assumes you already know the lore and names of things instead of stopping to explain what a cadian is

[crystal forum]

at the same time it's cadians so it's not like they had to reach deep to find that one

[torpid narwhal]

Its just an example

[near ermine]

Lore gentlemen, what is the standard opinion across astartes for ogryns?

[dusk patrol]

Astartes largely don’t care or would look down on Ogryns, Ogryns would see Astartes as angels or whatever

Maybe be disappointed that they’re smaller than they thought they’d be.

[opaque coyote]

Depends on the chapter

Most don't really care

The black templars would try to shoot them

[near ermine]

That's unfortunate.

I wished astartes saw ogryns the way the seer psyker does.

[opaque coyote]

Both are outcasts

due to their genetics

They just turned out differently

They can relate

[shell mason]

Me when the microwave starts beeping after finishing cooking my hot pocket at 3 am

[storm jungle]

Remember that most of the Imperium is taught to discriminate and hate mutants.

Seer and Savant are mostly well-read and well-meaning to a certain point so they know the difference lol

[shell mason]

alright lemme ask

https://tenor.com/view/hotline-miami-hotline-miami-jacket-jacket-gif-7790380796123797951

[storm jungle]

It depends.

[shell mason]

oh?

[storm jungle]

[outer wave]

Guys what would happen if you gave an ogryn geneseed?

[arctic talon]

Wouldn’t work

[outer wave]

Damn

But they are human, albeit a subspecies of one

[arctic talon]

Too genetically differently most likely, gene seed already doesn’t work on most humans

[outer wave]

Damn x2

[arctic talon]

Best chance would be to use blood angels geneseed

Since it works on heavily mutated people

[outer wave]

Would the thousand son geneseed also work in theory, or was it the thing that was giving the Flesh Change?

[torpid narwhal]

Did any black library authors help with space marine 2?

Everything is so authentic

[outer wave]

I did, I wrote in specifically the Titus Orgy scene since I wanted everyone to know that Titus, despite being a super soldier, is human and thus has humanly desires

Anyway I dunno

[arctic talon]

It would work but it turns you to dust unless you’re a strong enough psyker

[crystal forum]

plasma weapons are so good in SM2

christ

the pistol SLAPS

[winter vessel]

I use it a lot when doing a gun parry for the pistol

[crystal forum]

i take out elites with it

[torpid narwhal]

is an inquisitor higher ranked then the deathwatch

[crystal forum]

holy shit minotaurs are in SM2

[storm jungle]

Depends

but mostly yes

Deathwatch are literally a chamber militant of the Ordo Xenos

[crisp heath]

I think the death watch are cool

[torpid narwhal]

death watch should rank higher since they are in black armor and that makes them cooler

its logic

[plush mason]

the inquisition does operate on the rule of cool, but then inquisitors tend to wear black/dark colored longcoats and that outweighs black power armor

[dusk patrol]

Mostly except in the cases of Captains, Watchmasters, and higher ranking DW dudes in general

They tend to work with them closely but if push comes to shove

[torpid narwhal]

Black power armor is always coolest

[dusk patrol]

We have seen DW ignore the Inquisition

[plush mason]

didnt they help Kryptman when he was excommunicated?

[arctic talon]

Yeah

He’s under their protection

[plush mason]

are there any other factions of the imperium that have chamber militants?

[snow fern]

Adeptus sororitas

[plush mason]

i mean aside from the inquisition

[snow fern]

I mean, I don’t think the ecclisiarchy count as the Inquisition

[plush mason]

yeah but the sororitas are part of the ecclisiarchy and the chamber militant stuff is that its a force from outside the faction sworn to aid and support it

[arctic talon]

Adeptus mechanicus with imperial knights sorta

[tough haven]

Ordo hereticus

[torpid narwhal]

i thought the space marines dont believe in the cult?

are there some that do?

[rose thorn]

It’s different! it’s got a Chaplin!

[rose thorn]

A yes, but also Chaplins basically teach space marines the culture of the chapter

[arctic talon]

they don't think the Emperor is a god

its a cult of personality

[crystal forum]

finally my favorite chapter

[sacred ginkgo]

Voltron

[torpid narwhal]

those guys are acting like hes a god

[arctic talon]

Have you seen a cult of personality?

[torpid narwhal]

i dont know what that is

i wanted soul drinkers and could only find emperor's children purple

so fuck it clown mode engaged

[torpid narwhal]

so like north Korea

or hitler

[arctic talon]

yep

though north korea's thing did call one of their dictators a god

I forgor which one

[torpid narwhal]

space hitler

[plush mason]

thats like, the least evil imperial governor in 40k

the imperium kills enough of its own people on the daily to make hitler and stalin puke

as well as make them look like saints

But damn the plasma weapons go hard af

[wintry scarab]

Can someone on Sm2 do a test for me? When in the multiplayer battebarge, disconnect your internet, reconnect when the game puts you offline and see if you get progress after finishing the mission. Im getting stuff and i cant tell if its a bug but it allows you to do solo and still get xp and stuff.

[paper haven]

You sure showed that guy

[storm jungle]

Nope it doesn't.

I tried it yesterday 💀

solo is gonna get added later, because gotta pad out that content

[queen laurel]

so is it good or mid?

[storm jungle]

Uh above-mid id say

i very much would give the game a 6 or 7/10

[queen laurel]

so average

[storm jungle]

I guess.

[plush mason]

its SM1 but with better graphics

[wintry scarab]

You sure? I guess i was bugged but yesterday i did it and it saved. That being said today its giving me a message saying "progress will not save" while yesterday it did not.

Also not doing solo was a terrible idea from launch considering how its connected to the story. I hate how you can join mid through a match.

[storm jungle]

Huh that is weird, it didnt for me

[soft thunder]

For SM2 cosmetics are there any unique looking loyalist cosmetics? (salamander scales, space-wolf hides, etc)

[rocky gale]

Don't think so, those will come with the Champion packs

[bold rampart]

nope didnt see any

[soft thunder]

so seasonpass/battlepass/dlc?

[rocky gale]

Yea

[soft thunder]

damn

[bold rampart]

from what dil posted its just primaris skin and some worthless accessories on top

[rocky gale]

Season Pass rather than Battlepass

[bold rampart]

literally a dlc attachment for a helmet was just some golden star

its pretty sad

[rocky gale]

Na this is the Champion pack

[bold rampart]

ye sure, but the other stuff is really bland

[rocky gale]

Yea

[bold rampart]

like goddamn

you can ask dil to post it again rabs

[rocky gale]

Yea so the regular DLC cosmetics will probably all be quite bland and generic and the Champion packs are the ones that will get all the effort

[bold rampart]

yea, waiting to see that "effort"

[rocky gale]

Because I don't think the Champion Packs are included in the Season Pass

[bold rampart]

uhh

[rocky gale]

Because if you look at the graph

[bold rampart]

i just have this

[rocky gale]

Season Pass is on Gold, but the Champion Pack is on Ultra

[bold rampart]

its in the battle pass iirc

season pass

[rocky gale]

Just seems odd to include future Packs in the Season Pass, but not the first one

[soft thunder]

sec need to research what the promotional word vomit actually means

[rocky gale]

Yea I've seen the Roadmap, but it's still odd, the release material is treating the Champion Pack as an extra thing above the Season Pass, but the Roadmap has future Champion Packs on the Season Pass

[bold rampart]

as rabs said its literally just confusing word vomit

makes my brain hurt just looking at it

[soft thunder]

ya just watching a vid of someone explain stuff and go through things, still conveluted. But all the founding chapter cosmetics look like htey are seperate dlc. Then there is the preorder crumbs that can be used on multiple classes and the centurian looking-mf for the preorder+ (champion?) is only usable on 1 class.

[rocky gale]

Yea the Ultramarine Champion is only for the Heavy I think

and then the Dark Angel Champion will be for the Bladeguard guy

[soft thunder]

So I guess the preorder+ is the "champion's pack" for ultramarines. Then each founding chapter will get a seperate dlc for a chamption's pack, I think? That second part is an assumption on my part.

yua ultramarine champion is heavy

[rocky gale]

Yea, it's just odd and slightly inconsistent, like Ultramarine Champion Pack is a next level reward over the Season Pass, but the Season Pass is supposedly going to include all future Champion Packs

Like surely it should be the other way round

[bold rampart]

milking the space marine fans till theres nothing left

[wintry scarab]

The fact that thats a set and you cant customize it is a bad omen for the future.

[bold rampart]

yeah its just premade sets, but you can switch head, chest

mix match

mayb more i dont remember

[soft thunder]

So $7-12 for a class skin just like darktide lol

[bold rampart]

yep

but they arent complaining

[soft thunder]

le gw society

[bold rampart]

theyre eating it up

then they cry when dt does the same

[soft thunder]

I just want some salamander scales/skin and a lizard skull

[fleet parcel]

iirc, people complained not about the price itself, but the fact they were raised, and included less than before

[wintry scarab]

Yup. I still frown irl when i think about it.

I always thought the prices were really good. (when compared to the market that is) But then after people did that big riot it got better then insta plummeted down the scummy hole.

And im going to guess SM2 will go down that same route. Lets just hope im wrong.

[vocal drum]

grey knights sound bad ass, today i learned they hunt demons and the seed itself comes from the god emperor lol

apparently they might the strongest type of space marines
