Meh

[tough haven]

I thought it could tide me over until admech 2

[arctic talon]

I got what I expected out of it

Bolterporn the game

[crystal forum]

still over here playing darktide instead

[tough haven]

SM1 better

[gray umbra]

Too bad bolters are bad in that game

[tough haven]

I LOVE DARKTIDE

I love being a average ass dude

[crystal forum]

calm down jim

[arctic talon]

SM1 Unironicially has a better story lol

[tough haven]

I think they are fairly strong

[outer wave]

Guys I cant wait for SM3 where Im doing more of the same of SM2 but with a new faction to fight

[arctic talon]

But I don’t think people supporting the imperium is GW’s fault

Necessarily

[gray umbra]

Darktide gives me a certain feeling when i run through hab block dreyko with a flamer

[arctic talon]

It’s people being dumb as shit

More so

[tough haven]

arent the stories effectively the same but one is orks lol

[crystal forum]

tau and then thousands sons behind it all again

[arctic talon]

They’re very similar lol

[arctic talon]

Make it world eaters for the funny

[outer wave]

I think part of it is just Warhammer having been a niche hobby thing until pretty recently, where its become mainstream, so now alot of weirder people have come into the light

[languid meadow]

I mean Sm2 has the dark aspects of the imperium but like newer 40k editions it's no longer super obvious and isn't the center anymore (which sucks ngl)

[gray umbra]

The artifact..

[outer wave]

Tau would kinda fuck hard

[crystal forum]

you'd know?

[arctic talon]

It literally is super obvious

In newer editions

[languid meadow]

Ok toned down from previous ed

[arctic talon]

They literally servitorize an entire crew of communications officers

In the core rule book

[arctic talon]

It isn’t

It literally isn’t

[crystal forum]

how hard do tau fuck specifically

do i have to look this up

[gray umbra]

Sm2 was just designed to be mass consumption slop

[arctic talon]

I think it’s deranged people think GW have toned back the grimdark when it’s literally the same

Hell a book released in 9e literally has a servitor factory

[outer wave]

Ive seen the fan art; I assure you that they would fuck hard and Gue'va like me

[arctic talon]

Described

[languid meadow]

all right fine I concede

[arctic talon]

In disgusting detail lol

Like

[crystal forum]

you have my respect for the honesty

[gray umbra]

Love that game to death but it was 100 percent meant to get people to buy more minis

[arctic talon]

No

I’m posting the servitor factory lore

BRB

[outer wave]

There he goes

[gray umbra]

:smarf:

[outer wave]

Going to talk about the serivtor factory story again......

I jest, I havent heard it

[languid meadow]

it's fun

[gray umbra]

I love servitors

[tough haven]

its any time theres a group in media thats meant to be reviled, theres a group of people that go "yeah this looks good"

[languid meadow]

those types of Imperium fans are something else

[arctic talon]

The cold smell hit me like a brick. Like a meat store, where astringents can’t hide the smell of incipient rot. There were notes of faeces to go with the blood and decay. The sound was the worst. Shouting, screaming, praying, weeping, all the cries of human terror and misery.

I’m not a squeamish man, and nor do I spare tears for those who deserve punishment, but what I saw in that processorium haunts me still. Naked human beings were standing in a switchbacked line between high fences. Outside the fences Adeptus Mechanicus menials in environment suits stood guard with shock goads in hand. The people, all mature men and women, were shepherded down the caged walk like livestock. And they were food beasts being led to the slaughter, meat for the ravenous appetite of the Machine-God. I grew up lucky enough to eat real meat. I was unlucky enough to see where it came from – another gift of my father on another damn tour of my family’s various businesses. The manufactorum produced servitors, but it was more akin to an abattoir than a workshop. Every surface was easily cleanable. Large plastek flaps divided areas from each other. Servitors with spray units surgically attached to their backs prowled about, hosing filth into slit drains set into the perfectly smooth, slanted floors. We walked above all this, past sentry pods on spikes occupied by galvanic rifle-armed snipers. Our path went from one end of the hall to the other, and I could see pretty much the whole sorting process, beginning to end.

As the line slowly advanced, the people were passed through various scanning devices, most of them mounted in ugly, functional arches that let out a constant series of acceptance chimes. Occasionally, one would let out an angry blare, and the indicator lumens would flash red. The rejected person was then swallowed up by a trapdoor opening beneath their feet. From these pits wafted a hideous stench, and the grinding sounds of industrial mincers. One rejected man grabbed on to the lip and hung there, arms and hands bloodied, shouting a stream of defiant profanities. Guards lined the grating either side of him and shocked him until he fell. The adepts wouldn’t even waste bullets on these people.

The trapdoor flipped up, and the next terrified person was ushered forward. A number of pneumatic gates separated the people from each part of the process, snapping open and shut with bone-crushing force. Violent metal arms snatched them up and spread-eagled them in the air, and a servitor shearer shaved them all over. At another they were subjected to a high-pressure counterseptic wash whose chemical stink made me choke from a hundred feet away. More scanners, more rejects winnowed out. Machines forcibly dressed them in the heavy rubberised garments common to all mono-tasked servitors. These were saggy on them, all one size, until another process force-shrank them to fit their bodies where metal cuffs, sockets and collars bit into vulnerable flesh.

The last few prayers gave way to screams at that point, and even the most stoic shouted in pain. They were ushered over a floor buzzing with power that made them shriek with every footstep. ‘What’s that for?’ I asked. Djelling answered only reluctantly. ‘Follicular inhibitor. To stop their hair growing,’ he said. ‘How?’ I asked. Djelling was done answering. ‘Come, come, this way.’ He waved me over to a door. I didn’t come this way. I watched numbly. The shivering lines of terrified men and women reached a final series of gates, where a high-energy augur beam of such potency it made my dataslate buzz passed over them. Dazed, they were manhandled into different queues, and then hustled from the room to their fates. Djelling gripped my elbow with surprising strength and pushed me out of the hall. ‘This way. Please,’ he said. Thankfully, I was spared a view of the surgeries. I doubted the Adeptus Mechanicus provided anaesthetic, for the same reasons they would not dull the pain of a nail under the hammer

It’s not even past 8:00 yet

Smh

[tough haven]

Melatonin STOP

[arctic talon]

This is also the same book with some other gross servitor lore

But yeah GW is totally less grimdark now

I’m sure

[gray umbra]

I think i remember an excerpt about some nobles son who visits a mechanicus base and he pisses them off so much they kidnap him

And talks about how they just sever his frontal cortex

[languid meadow]

that's why you don't anger the people who know how to turn you into a door

[outer wave]

Question: space marines dont typically believe that god emperor is a god right? Why or how do chaplains exist then?

Is it more that they find his teachings holy but not the guy himself?

[languid meadow]

depends on the chapter

[outer wave]

Lets go with Ultramarines since Im watching Cali play SM2

[languid meadow]

I think firstborn generally don't believe in the emperors godhood and primaris from mars being the ones that are into the whole worship business (This is not 100% since marines believe in different things)

[gray umbra]

I think theyre mostly there to reaffirm loyalty to the cause

They like help maintain the spiritual and psychological health of the chapter

So i guess theyre kinda the hypeman

[outer wave]

Team psychologist and psychiatrist

[outer wave]

So generally speaking, primaris are the ones that have more of a religious zeal towards the emperor in comparison to first born?

[languid meadow]

I think yes

at least the ones from mars

I bet the ones from the homeworlds are more like firstborn (this could also be wrong)

[outer wave]

I see

[languid meadow]

wait I think I found something

[outer wave]

That must be weird to teach them that the emperor is not a god despite the amount of religious books and sermons given by chaplains

[gray umbra]

Obviously its differsnt per chapter and some chaptsrs do different things

Its also to make sure theres no corruption

[outer wave]

Yeah that makes sense to check on corruption within the ranks

[gray umbra]

Cant have your space marines thinking too much on their own

Or else they start to question things

[crisp heath]

What part of the emperor did angron inherit?

I know it’s not his fury cause that’s a nail thing

[gray umbra]

His tiny pp

[crisp heath]

I was thinking empathy

Since he had a weird power

[languid meadow]

Ok so dark imperium makes it seem that primaris in normal chapters aren't religious

gonna try to find the excerpt

[ebon imp]

empathy and martial prowness

[outer wave]

I know his whole purpose was to be an empathetic mediator for the other primarchs, basically emotional support

[arctic talon]

Chaplains aren’t so much religious leaders as they are like morale officers

[ebon imp]

The Black Templars would love to have an euthastic chat with u

[gray umbra]

Thats a better way of putting it

[crisp heath]

Chaplains in the us army are as much faith ministers as they are emotional support

[low gazelle]

whhy is fanart of battle sisters...

[crisp heath]

What i thought of 40k chaplains, just not religious and more dogmatic

[outer wave]

I see I see

[lapis verge]

From what I gather Chaplains are usually more dogmatic in keeping morale yes

Tho some chapters tend to have... more fanatically religious Chaplains

[gray umbra]

40k just really likes the religious undertones

And aesthetic

[lapis verge]

Which is ironic considering Big E wanted everyone to be a rational atheist

[outer wave]

I get that but considering that space marines generally arent one to believe the emperor was a god, I thought it was strange that they do have a chaplain giving out religious sermons

[gray umbra]

Irony is the chaplains and lex divinatus are from the word bearers

And look at them now :smarf:

[tough haven]

Irrational atheism on top

Secular insanity

[lapis verge]

I think the more recent Primaris do see the Emperor as a god, yes

But won't the Firstborns still view him not as a god, considering some of them were around to know what he actually thinks?

Actually, a homebrew Loyalist chapter that doesnt see the Emps as a god would be interesting

[arctic talon]

Not true

Primaris are mostly the same as firstborn

In terms of beliefs

[ebon imp]

I'd say SM2 did a solid job at depicting Chaplin

[gray umbra]

||Leandros|| is a cunt but got damn can he preach

[ebon imp]

Where toward the end game, u would have such Chaplin deliever a sermon, but I don't recall it was religious in nature at all

[lapis verge]

Is that so?

Hmm, might need to look into it more

[ebon imp]

indeed

[arctic talon]

He’s the perfect chaplain tbh

Constantly suspicious

Incredibly strict

Knows space book inside and out

[lapis verge]

After what happened in SM1 I damn wish we got a game as the Space Wolves

Just so I can see a Space Wolf flip off an inquisitor

[languid meadow]

Emperor bless Ulfar

@arctic talon did you get to print the gamma pistol yet nerd

No

i should improve it

i have gotten better since i made it

and if you dont make one soon i'll be forced to find your place of residence and leave one on your doorstep with a note attached containing merely a single drop of blood

[outer wave]

I wonder how many of those that make up the death watch are from traitor legions

[crystal forum]

that's up to you to decide

literally

[outer wave]

I believe there are still Iron Warriors that arent traitors within the Death Watch

[opaque coyote]

And all of them are Blackshield

[outer wave]

Who are they?

[soft thunder]

I'm pretty sure I've heard of at least a couple chapters that are speculated to be loyalist iron warrior geneseed

[outer wave]

Damn they take on Perturabo's seed and suddenly they're all bitter assholes

[rose thorn]

hewwo chat

[opaque coyote]

Man Perturabo disappointed a lot of people

Unlike those who takes on the Emperor's seed

[outer wave]

I really like that Perty's issue is just himself being himself

[rose thorn]

hey was there like, any way the non traitors of trator legions showed their alliegence?

or was it a 'oh fuck IW' pop pop

[opaque coyote]

I heard a quote that applies to this

"Perturabo would've been one of the most skilled, artistic, and well liked primarchs.

If he wasn't Perturabo"

[outer wave]

Basically true

[opaque coyote]

I think after Istvaan, they generally just declared themselves traitor

[rose thorn]

ye of cours e

[opaque coyote]

Although, the Raven Guard and White Scars had issues with traitors within their ranks, and the Dark Angels obviously had the Fallen to deal with after the Horus Heresy

But generally

"OH SHIT IRON WARRIOR!"

BLAM

[rose thorn]

luckily Khan being the chad he is forgiven his traitor sons and put them on teh same page

[opaque coyote]

Yeah he basically let the traitors in his midst do their thing

Because he knew full well that they wouldn't convince anyone

[rose thorn]

'look both shit sucks'

i might build firstborn into hh as WS, they wear eagels

[opaque coyote]

"However, one literally has daemons that torture people randomly. So the Imperium is slightly better"

[rose thorn]

so no need to shave

[opaque coyote]

I still find it funny that Chaos is basically only slightly less worse overall

Compared to the Imperium

[rose thorn]

also firstborn bikes are dirt cheap

[rose thorn]

yea, the imeprium does the same thing but some peope are okay

[crystal forum]

this can be taken out of context

[rose thorn]

note white scars are thes ame people who laugh while they behead people

i wont im a coward

Never got the traitors arguments.

[crystal forum]

they just want power for themselves

[sour hornet]

Like you're siding with creepy hellspirits and yet you're the good guys? Bruh.

Unserious people.

[crystal forum]

horus at the very beginning was only convinced by erebus when he showed a futur where the emperor is worshiped instead of horus

it's all selfish bullshit

[outer wave]

When you feel that the emperor is actually a big asshole, mixed with funny insanity juice thats in the form of chaos/warp shinanigans, you'd think what you're doing is right and just, despite what you're actually doing

[sour hornet]

Wearing flayed skin and adorning your machines with rotting corpses and chains of skulls.

Hmm...

[crystal forum]

my favorite is in fall of cadia when a traitor says he'll liberate the cadians and then proceeds to swing a chain sword

[sour hornet]

Very unserious people to go around claiming your goal is to liberate when your name is "Thrashgore the Vilehand"

[opaque coyote]

applies to the imperium as well tbf

[crystal forum]

nobody's a winner in 40k

only trazyn wins

this is a hard fact

[outer wave]

Yeah tbf the Imperium actively genocides entire worlds that dont comply with them, or do but they've been doing things like conversing with friendly aliens

Or worse of course

Servitor creation is a thing under their rule

[sour hornet]

Oh I know the Imperium is filled with terrible people.

[crystal forum]

people keep bringing up servitors as if 99% of a hive world's population living below famine standards isn't dark enough

[sour hornet]

SM2 doesn't help with that though.

Literally just a "good guys save the world" plot.

[outer wave]

Its a pretty easy example to get into, but the underhive is also a good answer

[crystal forum]

not even just the underhive

[sour hornet]

It isn't.

That's just standard dystopia stuff.

Servitors are unneeded cruelty.

Like there is no reason you need lobotmized servants instead of just making better stuff. But that is what the setting is about.

[outer wave]

Anyway I cant believe Madrgus Babymuncher is a bad guy who joined chaos!!!!

[tough haven]

I love my silly little guy

Actually lots of necrons just vibe

Like my favorite Zandrekh, he is living the psychosis lifestyle

[median star]

maybe im just not looking in the right places but what ranks or denomination is this helmet supposed to represent to the ultra marines and is it ultra marine specific

[dusk patrol]

It’s something others use but that helmet is obviously Ultramarine colored

But in general other chapters can and do use similar things

[median star]

ye but i assume its to signify some sort of rank right

[dusk patrol]

Seems like it’s generally a Captain thing

Cato obviously is the most obvious example

But it could be a lower rank thing too

[low gazelle]

Is there any scene where all sons bow before the big e

Cause all of them in one frame pre heresy would.go hard

[dusk patrol]

Besides on Terra before they scattered all the primarchs were never in the same place

Ullanor was the largest gathering

[low gazelle]

Holy sh imagine if the big e rezzes reconnects with the traitorous sons. Then faces off against the chaos gods in one huge battle with all primarchs

It's impossible

But a sick af what if battle

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-funny-wtf-wth-jesse-gif-17336046

[low gazelle]

Sorry mind is running rampant

[low gazelle]

All 20 sons bowing in front of the golden throne

Would go hard on a multi piece glass pane

[dusk patrol]

There was 21

And also no

[low gazelle]

Honestly might be worth making

But how much it'd go for

If officially licensed

Maan

But who tf would.even buy it

[warm comet]

What are space marine chaplains? Like literally just chaplains in armour?

Do they fight?

[sour hornet]

When they need to.

[low gazelle]

They keep the chapter pure

[sour hornet]

Typically no, though.

[low gazelle]

So iif a chapter has a traitor space mariine or is suspected of

you typically report that mariine to a chaplain

A typical chapter has 1k space marines

[warm comet]

How do they get chosen? Just the particularly holy ones? Lol

[low gazelle]

God no

[warm comet]

Or is it like the trope of the priest that is secretly really good at fighting

[low gazelle]

Well

[dusk patrol]

They’re very effective fighters

[low gazelle]

those who are strict with the codex

and

[dusk patrol]

They’re all marines and they’re always veterans of the chapter

Chaplains unlike other specialist roles generally aren’t chosen early on

And instead marines as they rise in the ranks might be selected to try to become one

[low gazelle]

Theyll be siignified with a black shoulder pauldron

[dusk patrol]

They wear all black armor

[low gazelle]

Do they?

II thougght succesors are marked viia one bblack shoulder

[dusk patrol]

Some choose different

But it’s almost always all black

[dusk patrol]

Anyways they’re basically the therapists and purifiers of the chapter

They both look for and root out corruption in a marine and also make sure they’re able to effectively fight and continue their service

How they do this varies a lot by chapter

But they have a lot of authority

[celest dome]

Basically Commissar for the SM

[dusk patrol]

They can often have authority similar to a captain or act as a similar figure if the captain is available

And are similar to apothecaries in certain matters, able to overrule a captains authority

[queen laurel]

are Chaos Chaplains a thing?

[dusk patrol]

Dark Apostles

Generally Word Bearers

[queen laurel]

i see

[dusk patrol]

Often very charismatic and leading cultists and what not or winning over locals as they can

Chaplains similarly are taught to be orators and how to galvanize different imperium forces they might fight with

[queen laurel]

wait was Uralon a Dark apostle in Rogue trader?

[dusk patrol]

Yeah

[gaunt mortar]

Getting rid of Exalted Champions was cringe

[crystal forum]

chaplains are cool but i dont like the skull aesthetic

40k is already so saturated with skulls

[dusk patrol]

What’s that?

More skulls you said?

[rose thorn]

Khorne

Khrone demon? Khrone possessed?

[queen laurel]

A giant serrated chain sword

Either it's an imperial night of khorne or

Just an imperial knight

[rose thorn]

They said it was organic

[queen laurel]

Obliterator?

[rose thorn]

The chainsword is a pretty iconic design, and it leaves many avant-garde engineers in the 41st Millennium looking for ways to spice up their inventory. This limb clearly takes influence from the Vashthaus school of postmodern design and genetor entries into the art world from the late 740.M41s, by marrying the organic with the artificial as a commentary on the dualistic nature of life in the 41st Millennium.

[queen laurel]

my Final guess is an Obliterator

[rose thorn]

A WE obliterated maybe?

[queen laurel]

Maybe

[shadow plover]

I'm calling it to be an Emperor's Children deamon unit

would be cool to finally get updated Mutilators too

[rose thorn]

Yeah but it doesn’t match the usual Slaanesh weapon style

[shadow plover]

True, but nor do I think it's specifically any god's style

[spare osprey]

Exactlyyyy

[spare osprey]

And yet, they call it art

I rest my case

[queen laurel]

chain weapons are the unofficial mascot of khorne given the amount of his special characters that use chain weapons

They are brutal and lack subtlety

[shadow plover]

Doesn't look to be a chain weapon either, just a blade with teeth

[queen laurel]

And they spill blood everywhere when you hit some of them

[spare osprey]

Tbf that is also them saying it might not even be a chainsword lol

[queen laurel]

i was making a joke on how what he said is similar on the post

[spare osprey]

Got it

[queen laurel]

so honestly it can be a toss up between Khorne or Slannesh

[spare osprey]

I’m throwin this in anything

But I’m still gonna die on the hill that the hands in that liquid is fulgrim

[queen laurel]

it's definitely 100% chaos

it's an Organic Chainsword

[celest dome]

Could be Death

that's what the post suggest

Necromunda continues to get the best minis

[queen laurel]

yessir

that shit is cookin

[paper haven]

The chapter is a subdivision of the legion.

Oh yeha finally figured out my kruleboyz lore, they are in chamon and their venom turns you into Iron pyrite

[rose thorn]

I know

But 40k has rotted my rbain

r/brain

[queen laurel]

hey you went went with my my suggestion

[rose thorn]

Yee :3

[queen laurel]

and that sounds cool

[rose thorn]

They make you into fools gold

They think they be da richest boyz around

[queen laurel]

that's a great idea

[paper haven]

Iron pyrate poison is pretty sick

[rose thorn]

But all their stuff is actually made of fake gold, they managed to enslave duardin in order to build their gear out of said fools gold

Of course it’s dog shit quality but it’s made of gold so they are happy with it

[queen laurel]

so these guys value their equipment more than usual right?

Unlike the usual one that will just throw away their stuff if it gets the compromised

[rose thorn]

Their equipment would be more of a flex of wealth I assume

Ooo I paint their shields gold

Or like, dull gold

[queen laurel]

I mean their personality of getting rid of their weapons and stuff isn't really apparent on these guys

[rose thorn]

Fair

[queen laurel]

yeah since they like showing off their stuff I feel like they also don't like it when they lose that stuff

so the mentality of having cheap and easy to replace stuff isn't really common with them

[rose thorn]

https://cdn.britannica.com/52/100752-050-784C6A3D/Pyrite.jpg

Oh it’s like

Greenish too

“Why is your gold green?”
“Greenz da best”

Would they scam chaos dwarves with trh gold or enslave dwarves to make stuff out of the gold?

[queen laurel]

enslave

chaos Dwarves being dwarves can definitely tell if it's fake gold

after all they are experts with that type of stuff

so better try to enslave dwarves than try to deal with them with the fake gold

[plush mason]

is iron pyrite a soft metal?

[tepid glacier]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_1Nkv7o8lo

[queen laurel]

moderately hard

[celest dome]

Harder than gold at least

[tepid glacier]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogkdB0x9WeA i wish someone adapt 40k at cinema at a good quality, fans has some cools creations

[queen laurel]

yeah it's between 6 and 6.5 on the Mohs hardness scale

[plush mason]

so is each regiment in the guard lead by a general?

or are the generals part of a separate group?

[celest dome]

General are part of the Imperial Guard structure, but they are higher than a Regiment iirc

[plush mason]

the lexicon said there is a general staff that will be in charge of many seperate regiments but im confused as to where those in the general staff comes from

[celest dome]

Lower Officers tend to come from the same planet, but from 'Nobler' blood

[plush mason]

so is there a standard rank that would be in over all command of a single regiment or does it vary world to world?

[gray umbra]

Think regiments are led by a colonel

[celest dome]

Colonel for a Regiment
Castelan for multiples

[plush mason]

and the castellans form the general staff or is that above the castellans?

[celest dome]

Castellan is the highest of the General staff

[plush mason]

ah

[dusk patrol]

Also ranks aren’t super consistent with what they lead and sometimes regiments have unique terms

[lime stratus]

I'm Curious. Has there been an jokes said in universe by like guardsmen or something to lighten the mood? If so what are some?

[storm jungle]

[plush mason]

lol

[gray umbra]

whys is half of the warhammer hobby content so click baty

Warhammer fans are easy to appease

And a lot of content creators use this to their advantage

Mostly targeting the people that don't know any better

[rose thorn]

fair

theres so many channels that pray on new people its pretty sad

for hobby and lore

[queen laurel]

Yeah it's absolutely revolting

[rose thorn]

tabletop gameplay is ina d iffernet catagory

since most popele who make clickbait content cant play lmao

i feel like salamanders and dark angels are the most click baited chapters

[queen laurel]

Yeah tabletop is mostly safe it's the lore where people are exploited the most

It's what a lot of people go in warhammer for

[dusk patrol]

God the amount of shit lore TikTok’s I’ve seen

This one dude in particular

He’s so authoritative too about it

Like he’s saying something that’s well researched and he ever looked into

[rose thorn]

hey did chaos space mairnes get a new model when they got thier codex?

oh yeah

the chaos lrod with jump pack

[rose thorn]

yeah tik tok is hell

[gray umbra]

"You wont BELIEVE what this dark angels does"

And then its just a dark angel doing dark angels things

[dusk patrol]

It’s really dumb stuff too

[queen laurel]

Don't bring in a new guy in here

I already have used too much brain space for major kill alone

[dusk patrol]

Like saying the one marine who gets killed by the cultist in SM2 is the redemptor dread you see later

Like

No

He died, they say so, and the Redemptor and Titus don’t have any rapport

[leaden pilot]

You don’t survive a rebar through the eye lmao

[dusk patrol]

Also, becoming a dread takes awhile

Not like a day

[rose thorn]

'did you space marines arent that evil? The salamanders are-'

[dusk patrol]

Tbh some dudes probably could but they talk about him being dead after

He’s very dead

[queen laurel]

Yes the things people say that will result in me ripping out their throat

[leaden pilot]

Also there’s a small memorial on the ship for this marine, which is a much cooler fact to me

[dusk patrol]

Omg guys Lamenters, Salamders, and Tau are so wholesome chungus

[dusk patrol]

Yeah they talk about fighting Tau with him

[arctic talon]

Chaos lord with jump pack, chaos lord

[gray umbra]

The dread has his name on his chassis lol

[arctic talon]

Also if we want to be pedantic the night lords killteam

Came out like

[rose thorn]

'who is the most evil space marine chapter? The black legion is a space marine chatper of-'

[arctic talon]

A month before iirc

[rose thorn]

legi ta rela video

[rose thorn]

wait they had special rules?

[arctic talon]

Agony

[arctic talon]

Yes?

[queen laurel]

I mean hey people like phineas gage exist

[rose thorn]

oh i thought they were a reskin of a unit

[arctic talon]

Oh wait in 40k?

No

[rose thorn]

liek the hands of teh archeon

oh

[arctic talon]

In killteam yeah

Yeah no they got hand of the archon’d

[dusk patrol]

I was actually thinking oh him lol

[leaden pilot]

Yeah I’d guess that his brain would be in no condition to fight, in dreadnought or not lmao

[arctic talon]

But you can proxy them easily at least

[dusk patrol]

He’s not the only wild case like that either

[arctic talon]

Since the big chainsword = heavy melee

[rose thorn]

plS GW JUST MKAE THE HANDS THE MUST FUCK ASS BODY GUARD UNIT EVR

PLSSSSSSSSSS

[arctic talon]

Skinthief

Ect.

[dusk patrol]

But yes it’s safe to say that on average

Rebar in the brain is bad

[queen laurel]

So the ork kill team the first one, Is Goffs

[arctic talon]

I don’t understand this

[arctic talon]

The second one is also goffs

[queen laurel]

You know the orks that despise stealth

[arctic talon]

It’s goffs all the way down

[rose thorn]

make them a body guard unit, just to protect your leader

[arctic talon]

Oh that

[rose thorn]

like uh

comand company i guess?

[arctic talon]

Yeah idfk why they chose goffs

[rose thorn]

or the locus (which is terible but still)

[arctic talon]

As the fucking like

Poster child

[queen laurel]

Okay the second one i understand they are Tank bustas that carry around large melee weapons

[arctic talon]

For killteam

[rose thorn]

because black orks in old owlrd

old world*

[arctic talon]

No

[rose thorn]

oh

[queen laurel]

So it makes sense for them to carry large weapons and stuff and having a heavy armor

[arctic talon]

That’s for 40k

[queen laurel]

The first one

[arctic talon]

Killteam has unconventional poster children

[queen laurel]

Why

[rose thorn]

i didnt se ehte killteam part sorry

[arctic talon]

Unlike 40k lol

[queen laurel]

Why Goffs

[arctic talon]

Stealthier ones

[queen laurel]

Like the blood axe is right there

[dusk patrol]

Goffs also have a really great scheme tbh

[arctic talon]

Some weird necron dynasty that had 0 lore

[dusk patrol]

Hard to blame them

[arctic talon]

Weird orang vespids

[arctic talon]

Also true

Goffs is best

[queen laurel]

I mean yeah it looks cool but like really the clan that despises stealth as a stealth team?

Like the second one makes sense

They are demolitionist and are very loud

The first one?

Not so much

It's just like so weird to me

[arctic talon]

Black is a sneaky color I guess

[dusk patrol]

Blood Axes would be more sense

But it’s how it is

Same reason they use Ultras for most marine releases

[arctic talon]

I think orks are the only big miss for KT’s like

Chosen subfaction

Marines are like Raptors/UM/Raven guard

Necrons are a dynasty so stealthy everyone forgot they existed despite the sick scheme

Tau being vior’la is meh

[dusk patrol]

Seeing non Sautekh or Szarekhan is always a trip

[queen laurel]

That's the worst part the way they are colored mix them look extremely blood axe

[arctic talon]

The fact it’s both a non metallic scheme + non sautekh/szerakahn is fun

[queen laurel]

Like there is not a single drop of Goff in this

[arctic talon]

The masks

Are black and white

[dusk patrol]

Tbf they are Ork Kommandos

Not being in clique with the rest of the clan is basically their MO

[queen laurel]

Yeah honestly i don't even care it's just what one of those weird decisions GW makes

Just a bit weird

[dusk patrol]

Yeah I agreed

[queen laurel]

Like a clan notorious for hating stuff like sneaking around and tactics have a kill team that uses the group that loves tactics?

Weird ass decision but all right

[arctic talon]

I was honestly expecting a freeboota killteam tbh

[queen laurel]

Honestly a ranged ork kill team with Flash gits would be fun

Straight up every single ork kill team right now is straight up designed to go in front of the enemy and tear them open a new one

[arctic talon]

Tbh

Very orky lol

[queen laurel]

It's very much is but hey i want to see the face of the person i'm playing with contort into an angry hippopotamus as a literally drown the entire board within a fire power to wipeout his entire team

[plush mason]

https://tenor.com/view/hippo-animal-gif-9957547

[rose thorn]

gonna kill someone

more click bate

[gray umbra]

The TRUTH

[rose thorn]

the TRUTH

[queen laurel]

Man

[rose thorn]

OMG HES PAITNING THE EASIEST FUCKING NID MODEL TO PAINT

WHY IS HE ACTING LIKE 'never evr do this'

[queen laurel]

Bahaha

Ok

[rose thorn]

you paitn them 3 colors

[queen laurel]

That's just an insult

[gray umbra]

Does he highlight

[rose thorn]

NO

like

im not cmopalinging

[queen laurel]

This looks like he used the fill in tool in real life

[rose thorn]

about the paint job or waht ever

i mcomplaining about him click baiting it

[queen laurel]

How the hell does the slap chop method of painting look more detailed than this

[rose thorn]

he is new its fine waht evere

he jsut wante dto be able eto legally play these units

[gray umbra]

Why is it a rule you cant field unpainted units

[rose thorn]

hes nice he is fine

[gray umbra]

Is there like an actual reason

[rose thorn]

so you dont just buy the strongest models and throw them on the board

[gray umbra]

I thought that was the point of the point system

But that makes sense

[queen laurel]

Yeah and i'm going to be honest looking at an unpainted model

Not fun

[rose thorn]

you go into the store, leave, build the models, then come back the next day to win a tourtement

thats why you paitn 3 colors

[gray umbra]

Theyre just pre heresy death guard i swear

[rose thorn]

you can play casually unpainted

but in any completetive sense

[gray umbra]

Ohhhh i get it

[rose thorn]

you have to have 3 colors

[gray umbra]

So like tau fish of fury

[queen laurel]

Can you imagine playing against an unpainted mega gargant?

[gray umbra]

People dont just buy tau and win

[lapis verge]

Inb4 we just headcanon the unpainteds as Alpha Legion in disguise

[rose thorn]

yea

[gray umbra]

Yes i can imagine my army being decimated by giant grey blobs

Yeah i just was curious

[rose thorn]

thats why comp teams either looks amazing (they paid someone to paint their models) or look like a rattle can's murder (they airbushed 3 layers)

[queen laurel]

Painting is one of the sacred funs of warhammer

[rose thorn]

back in the day how well your army was painted gave you bonus points

[gray umbra]

I usually dont paint minis because of the cost but im getting a intro set for my birthday so it seems like good fun

[lapis verge]

I should try painting someday

If the models don't cost an arm and a leg here

[gray umbra]

Yeah its literally only the cost

[rose thorn]

australlia?

[gray umbra]

And storage...

[lapis verge]

Close

SEA

[gray umbra]

My 600 ft nyc apartment cant handle it

[lapis verge]

I dont even think GW has any stores here even

I have to buy shit online

[rose thorn]

damnnn

'ehy guys, today ill be playing warhammer in anartica!'

https://tenor.com/view/mr-bean-mrbean-bean-mr-bean-holiday-mr-bean-holiday-movie-gif-11625313334009911234

'just, gotta, wait for the models'

[lapis verge]

Last time I saw a regular Primaris Ultramarine box it was like, $90 ish?

[rose thorn]

dont be afraid to buy off ebay or websites that sell them in a different plastic

thats psychotic

[queen laurel]

there is a reason why 3d printing and buying them in a different place is very popular

Gw and their god damn prices

[gray umbra]

Phobos strike team is 85 on amazon

[rose thorn]

oh killteams are so fucked right now

they are like insanity to buy right now

[gray umbra]

I was trying to look at the gw store and it seems like theyre super unavailable rn

[rose thorn]

gw included pieces of cardboard in their boxes so now they cost twice as much

[lapis verge]

Hol the fuk up

They sellin a Primaris Lieutenant for $25.50 wtf

[rose thorn]

where

?

[lapis verge]

Local online store

[rose thorn]

oh ice

[lapis verge]

Looks promising, still hella pricey for 1 damn unit ah

[rose thorn]

oh yeah, thats from alst editions starter box

waht army do you want to play

?

there is always always ways to save money on armies, mainly through second hand

[queen laurel]

Mate they are selling something that looks like that one uncle you don't invite in family gatherings for this much

[rose thorn]

the MODERN model is half the pirce and 3 times beteter looking btw

oh my bad

30 bucks cheaper

but still

[lapis verge]

See thats the problem

I want Necrons

And the rank and file box costs almost $60

Dear Lordy

[rose thorn]

necrons are one of the most second hand sold armies int eh game

[lapis verge]

Either Necrons or CSM really

[rose thorn]

ebay 'necrons lot'

[rose thorn]

also you should only ever buy like, 500 points at a time at most

[queen laurel]

Bro the faction leader of the giant is also still cheaper

[rose thorn]

HAHAHH

thats wonderful

[queen laurel]

It really is

[rose thorn]

also

you can use these guys in any destruction army

or you can use them in death, order, or chaos

depending on the one you have

once skaven tide starts dropping in price i might consider getting a skaven army, but ive never been too sold on them

[queen laurel]

They are conceptually and lore wise

The most original thing gw has

[rose thorn]

it is

[queen laurel]

That's why i like them they are their own unique thing

[rose thorn]

they are wonderufl

im just not sure if im a general fan i guess

i think they lack a social element i like in armies

like their interactions with other factions

[queen laurel]

They are pure evil backstabbing weasels that will not hesitate to bite your tail and strangle you with it if it means even getting just an inch ahead of you

Yeah like they are absolutely most of the time doing their thing

[rose thorn]

maybe i can make my custom clan just like

running an underground black market maybe?

idk

[queen laurel]

Yeah like personality wise they are not so flexible

Like backstabbing and being so evil is literally ingrained in them

[gray umbra]

I can fix them

[rose thorn]

there is an entire short story explaining why dark oath would even try to work with them

[queen laurel]

Do they know that even among chaos skaven have a reputation of you know

[rose thorn]

they are also extremely dependant on their own clans

[queen laurel]

Stabbing someone in the back

[rose thorn]

and internal cultures

moulders, skyre, pestalince, and what ever else tehre was

i do really relaly like their regiments of renown

[queen laurel]

I mean they literally breed like rats

They will have almost always have a numbers advantage against their enemy

So they can get away with relying on their own

And not having to interact with other people

[rose thorn]

they got a shooty one and a fighty one

the shooty one seems very, very nice

[queen laurel]

Yeah shooty fighty

And straight up frankenstein

[rose thorn]

also the fighty one is so fucking fast

in nurgle they are great

[queen laurel]

In old world the four skaven clans were a thing

The pestilence
The skyre
The moulder and the assassin wants that apparently came from japan

[rose thorn]

ye i know that

i thought i hated this one

but now i reall yliek it

[queen laurel]

They somehow gave a rat a receding hairline

I commend their creativity

[rose thorn]

krittok's main downside was that you can make him not be a leader basically

make him loose his ability to provide buffs

but in return maek him hit hard

which doesnt seem great for a hrode army

but when he comands like 2 guys, its a very worthy exchange

[queen laurel]

You can field him as both a leader and a hero?

[rose thorn]

its the same thing, you can make himm more killy but not let him issue commands

so if he was your warlord

you just

loose out on commands

[queen laurel]

Yeah but i don't expect him to stand up to someone like Gotrek or Gordrakk

On a head on fight

[languid meadow]

Eshin

[queen laurel]

Thank you i forgot the weeb rats name

[rose thorn]

Oh what about the uh

Storm rats

[queen laurel]

Storm vermin?

[rose thorn]

Yeah

[queen laurel]

They didn't really have a clan unless you are talking about Queek

He's from where was it again

clan mors

[languid meadow]

Eshins grandmaster is called Nightlord Sneek which is peak warhammer naming

[queen laurel]

Storm vermin in Clan mors are Prized for being good

And even have a special organ that allows them to enter to some kind of rage

And they have loyalty

Like the other clans look at this as like some kind of sorcery because how are they loyal

[celest dome]

China in last lore

[queen laurel]

Do not even remind me of fictional china having a special wall that keeps the bad things out as one of its central lore points

Because i will feed you to a tortoise

[celest dome]

Don't worry, I have my issues with Cathay too

[rose thorn]

cathay fucking sucks

so much

it hink teh entire factions existence is a porblem

[celest dome]

I hate it's magic theory, it just fucking suck and they could still have done their Chinese elements while actually having it be fitting

[queen laurel]

Hey guys what should we make this entire faction that is based on china be

The great wall

It's literally just china but great wall

[gray umbra]

The good chi flows in and the bad chi flows out

[rose thorn]

and FILL it with stereotypes

[gray umbra]

[rose thorn]

lets be so indirectly racist they cant even TELL what its from

[queen laurel]

Let's make one of the game mechanics based on the already used teaching of ying and yang

Jesus christ

[rose thorn]

and lets make yang brother obsessed with miltiary dictatorships and the yin sister be about fucking peace and waht ever

[queen laurel]

yep

[arctic talon]

Cathay is fucking hilarious

Lol

[rose thorn]

is this the most racist thing the Total war team has ever made?

[queen laurel]

How do you feel about it

[celest dome]

Well, it' still GW who made it

[arctic talon]

Meh

[queen laurel]

I feel like it could have been executed better

[arctic talon]

I think it’s meh

Asthetic wise needs more gold if they want to really get like

Warhammer exaggerated with it

Why so much silver

[rose thorn]

becuase they arent eurpoean therefore arent allowed gold </3

[arctic talon]

Smh

They do get gold

Just not all over the fucking place like I’d expect lol

[queen laurel]

You would think with Gelt moving in there they would have more gold but nope

[arctic talon]

The aesthetic is like

[rose thorn]

what country is gelt anyway?

[celest dome]

Tillea iirc

[arctic talon]

A fucked up combo of Ming and Song dynasty China

[celest dome]

So Italy

[rose thorn]

AHSAHSAHAFH

thanks gelt

[queen laurel]

What did gw mean when the italian scammed the pirates with fake gold

[rose thorn]

Where was Gelt during ww2?

[arctic talon]

Pretty interesting visually

Regarding Cathay’s aesthetics

[rose thorn]

and, why is italy best friends with the german faction...

[arctic talon]

In comparison to Chinese dynastic stuff

[celest dome]

Oh it's not the Italian that matter there

[rose thorn]

god damn it gw

[celest dome]

https://tenor.com/view/ds-gif-15339562539745993012

[arctic talon]

I don’t think Cathay is that racist

It’s not nearly as racist as Nippon lmao

[celest dome]

Or a faction starting by p

[rose thorn]

Nippon?

[queen laurel]

The chinese man has spoken Cathay is only very stereotypical

[rose thorn]

what

the

fuck

what is this

[queen laurel]

Japan

[arctic talon]

Glorious zhong guo wins again

[queen laurel]

Where the assassin's rats and learned how to do assassin things

[rose thorn]

and wh yare they all white

[queen laurel]

Yes the place where Clan Eschin learned how to be ninjas

Is japan

Bravo gw

[arctic talon]

What

the legendary sword of toyota

or whatever

[celest dome]

When I learnt that Cathay had 12 province a long time ago I had hoped that they would each be themed on a different animal of the Chinese Zodiac, with 4 of them being the colour animals at the same time, and the Rat province being owned by the Skaven

[arctic talon]

Sanyo Kawasaki and his legendary sword of Toyota

thanks GW

I'm glad you've gotten better

[queen laurel]

Jesus christ

[arctic talon]

Cathay is honestly not that offensive imo

[celest dome]

Which has been changed since, now they learnt everyting from Catahy

[rose thorn]

I

[arctic talon]

its kind of like

[arctic talon]

a charming level of racism lol

[queen laurel]

Thank goodness gw improve

[rose thorn]

am

goinna murder osmeone

[arctic talon]

sort of like Mulan

thats how I feel at least

[gray umbra]

Listen kawasaki is a good brand

[arctic talon]

It is

lol

[rose thorn]

this is so fucking stipid

[queen laurel]

We need to bring it up every once in a while to laugh at it

[rose thorn]

im so angry

[arctic talon]

idk

I don't think cathay is nearly as bad as you say it is

personally lol

[queen laurel]

On your opinion what part of its lore is the most giga racist

[arctic talon]

Uh

[rose thorn]

its still racist is the pronlem

[arctic talon]

meh

A lot of WHFB stuff is honestly kind of racist

[rose thorn]

yeah

[arctic talon]

the only one that isn't is like The Empire

[gray umbra]

Theyre british what do you expect

[arctic talon]

Bretonia is def kind of racist

[rose thorn]

because they are european

[arctic talon]

Okay but British people in WHFB

are literally a bunch of chaos worshiping savages

generally

💀

[queen laurel]

We made these orcs to be slave so what we call them

BLACK ORCS

[gray umbra]

Just like in rl

[arctic talon]

so they're also being racist towards themselves

which is weird but okay

[rose thorn]

literally putting the orcs and beastmen in countreis like the middle east and new world makes me so pissed

its so bad

[queen laurel]

Turkey belonging to Skarsnik

[slow flower]

Beastmen are everywhere not in countries

[celest dome]

Araby still is human

[gray umbra]

Mayanaztec lizars people

[queen laurel]

What does that f****** mean

[arctic talon]

the whole obsession with Dragon + yin/yang + honor thing lmao

but whatever

[queen laurel]

That is fair

[arctic talon]

pretty much all western media of Medival/dynastic China or fantasy China does this

[slow flower]

Pretty much all chinese mythology also does this

[arctic talon]

not really on the honor + dragon stuff

yin and yang yeah

they should have made Yin and Yang, 風水

[slow flower]

Dragon's are certainly a big theme

[arctic talon]

to make it even more complex and funny

[arctic talon]

yeah but not in the way its done in like Cathay in WHFB

or shit like Mulan lol

idk

[rose thorn]

im just glad old world can live in its own bubble so aos doenst have to associate wiht it

[arctic talon]

Its charming

in like its own weird way to me

[queen laurel]

I swear if they release the monkey king as a dlc lord and all of his abilities are just a rip off of blackmyth wukong

[arctic talon]

to see a weird and fucked up version if your own culture

[queen laurel]

I am going to be laughing

[gray umbra]

Yooo

[arctic talon]

his rod better be able to reach the moon

smh

[queen laurel]

Yep it better be

[gray umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/mmmm-monkey-monkey-ug-master-oogway-oogway-gif-19727561

[arctic talon]

oh also Kung Fu Panda

lmao

but that one is pretty respectful overall

I love Kung Fu Panda

[queen laurel]

Hell one of the questions in china when it was released was why can't we make something like this

It was just that good in respectful to people that they genuinely wondered why they can't make something like that

[arctic talon]

Its really well done lol

Its a very classic Kung Fu movie

but for kids + with animals

[queen laurel]

The fourth movie definitely didn't hit though

[arctic talon]

I haven't watched that one

so I wouldn't know

I've only watched the first 2

[queen laurel]

Apparently it was not good

Mid

[arctic talon]

I also like the fact kung fu masters use weapons

[celest dome]

I tried the 4th but dropped it in less than 15 min

[queen laurel]

Yeah and the furious 5 are animals of the styles they use

Who knew tigress uses the tiger style

[arctic talon]

no Rope darts though smh

I do like the choice of swords

and stuff lol

[queen laurel]

My favorite weapon is the budget kratos blades of General Kai

[arctic talon]

lol

[rose thorn]

I dont really have as much say as other parts of my extended family, but im realted to Native Americans and seeing media for decades dig up and make the same stereotypes is just obseenly aggrivating. I dont expect gw to know or really care about other countries or culture but i think making parts of the US that mostly belong to the reservations chaos corrupted lands nips be rpetty bad

of course i dont speak for everyone, i like beastmen and i think they have a place

[slow flower]

Again, beastmen are literally everywhere in WHf

[rose thorn]

[slow flower]

They're not even specifically a new world faction

[rose thorn]

youknow what i mean

[slow flower]

No, I don't.

[celest dome]

Beastmen aren't even that common in the Lustria

There are Native Human factions, but they're repressed by the Dark Elfs

[queen laurel]

Yeah gw writing was not the best at certain times

Thank goodness they are bettering themselves though

[rose thorn]

yeah

[arctic talon]

水滸傳 is one of the funniest Chinese novels for one reason, in the list of eighteen tradtional weapons for martial arts

it lists gun

as in just the word gun

[queen laurel]

I mean it's effective and works

[celest dome]

Well, is it wrong

[rose thorn]

aos does something similar every once in a while, which inst as bad as aos but still isnt great

[arctic talon]

No its not wrong at all lol

but its the only one to list actual firearms on the list of 18 traditional weapons for martial arts

lol

[rose thorn]

lmao

[queen laurel]

Tiger technique bullets of heaven

[arctic talon]

like, spear, axe, bow and arrows, swords, ect. and then in the 10th spot its just gun

not the characters for the staff refered to as "gun" romanized chinese

but like

actual gun

Lol

10/10 would read again

[celest dome]

Another about Cathay is that the way it's going forward, it seem like they'll all be Chinese Dragon transforming children
Except the Monkey Prince

[arctic talon]

downside of 水滸傳 is the book is kind of misogynistic

but like what a surprise, ancient china is misogynistic?

no way

[queen laurel]

Why did you think lord shen almost conquered china

[rose thorn]

i cant make any input on chinese history, my world history teacher was obseenly racist

[queen laurel]

He got that strap on the ready

[arctic talon]

unfortunate

[rose thorn]

to the point he had rants about how non white cultures just got lucky

thanks idaho

[queen laurel]

Did the school do anything with him or?

Let him stay

[rose thorn]

let him stay

[queen laurel]

Shit

[rose thorn]

idk now

but he was there when i was in taht shcool

[queen laurel]

I think that explains why a good chunk of american kids grow a bit too racist

Just letting a teacher like that exist isn't a good look

[rose thorn]

he also made us call him sir and gave a kid an A because she quoted the bible in her history papre

'paper' as in like 4 paragaphs

[arctic talon]

guh

anyways if you ever want to read Chinese classic literature I highly recomend
https://www.amazon.com/Water-Margin-Outlaws-Classic-Classics/dp/0804840954

[rose thorn]

i hated her guts lmao

[arctic talon]

thats prolly the most accurate translation to english

imo

having read it in both Chinese and English now

lol

[rose thorn]

ill def give a read when ever i have time

[queen laurel]

https://youtu.be/R8FSm4WXkUQ?si=AMfO7MX5jXEi_pTA

Honestly all i think about when i imagine your teacher is the white supremacist in red dead redemption

[rose thorn]

sahfahfhahah

guh i want this model

[queen laurel]

Yeah man that looks so good

[rose thorn]

mhm

i need ot buy ruination chamber tho tbh

i just saw a warhammer 40k apocalypse box on ebay

damn those were good deals

[rose thorn]

a 5th of all warhammer accounts are subscirbed to warhammer plus

gw's biggest worry atm is people using their IP to damage their business.

interesting

they dont even mention third party stuff

[opaque coyote]

I love how they're jade swords as well

Jade weapons in general look sick

[raven stone]

Almost as if they don’t want to be missing out on all the money the SFM creators made through Patreon…

If only GW took a leaf from Asian gaming companies, and celebrated fan work by directly sponsoring them to become advertisers, instead of…what they are doing now.

[rose thorn]

They said they are worried about people using their IPs to damage their company imagine, this must be corporate talk for ‘we got a bad community :(‘

[opaque coyote]

GW when a fan made an animation out of the goodness of their heart

https://tenor.com/view/rage-gif-26438788

[gray umbra]

Gw is weirdly protective of their ip

And i get it

[raven stone]

Sadly being dishonest with themselves led them to the wrong conclusion. They might as well say “we got a right wing fans problem” and do a better job applying solutions.

If nothing else, the absolutely comical nature of Text to Speech would be the best weapon in GW’s arsenal to demolish those Right Wing “40k IZ SERIOUS” nut jobs.

warhammer is a community ran game, you need to control what kind of communiteis form aroudn your game

If rather they be overly protective than not

A lot for that overly protective nature has led us to this current time where we’re getting some great stuff

And potentially more

[rose thorn]

if you make yoru setting all comical than it makes taking the setting seriously harder

[dusk patrol]

And what’s more, I can expect it’s going to stay true to the general dark vibe of 40k

It might not

Maybe Amazon if the deal goes through will fumble it

[rose thorn]

id rather have good books and block people on twitter

[dusk patrol]

But it gives me more hope than not

[rose thorn]

than have scifi blood bowl be the main setting

[dusk patrol]

Also as far as I’m aware there’s no examples of them taking down fan animations

[rose thorn]

i agree

[gray umbra]

I dont think amazon would fuck up 40k if we do get a show eventually

[dusk patrol]

Beyond hiring the dude involved

The stuff like SODAZ was community harassment

Not GW

[rose thorn]

i cant think of an example thats true lmao

[dusk patrol]

And Astartes they basically bought his property

[rose thorn]

oh besides when their content was being reposted on youtube

[dusk patrol]

Yeah obviously

[rose thorn]

yea

[dusk patrol]

And even that it’s easy to find tech
