[arctic talon]

A choice

yeah

wait no

Long las is 2, hand flamer is 1

[dusk patrol]

Oh wait

I misread

Yeah

[arctic talon]

tbh flamers are kind of horrifying in the system lol

[dusk patrol]

I thought that was weird

[arctic talon]

since you use a "zone" based system

flamers let you saturate an entire zone

and just cook everyone inside them lol

[dusk patrol]

Flamers were always OP in those systems

With guaranteed damage

[arctic talon]

did you know that cultists get cooked alive

if you lock them inside a burning room

big surprise I know

[dusk patrol]

In deathwatch they’re not as strong because you finally have enemies who don’t get annihilated by them immediately

Like with Eldar? Ignores all those advantages

[arctic talon]

yeah maledictum the scariest thing you're fighting is lesser daemons lol

[dusk patrol]

Abuses the fact that they don’t have high toughness and armor

[arctic talon]

or I guess an eldar range or kabalite warrior

[dusk patrol]

It seems pretty dope

[arctic talon]

the GM "build a enemy" table is pretty fun

[shell mason]

tell that to MMO characters

[arctic talon]

you can build a space marine if you want

[storm jungle]

Hmmmm

[shell mason]

ok

witchfinder cooking lowkey

[arctic talon]

Sisters of Silence are also a statblock lol

but also good luck wounding them

[rose thorn]

I am…. Emperor

[arctic talon]

Power armor is "balanced"™️

[storm jungle]

Hes a young miner

but hes got the spirit

[dusk patrol]

Yeah I’ve heard it has lore accurate power armor

Which means it’s a win button, shockingly

[arctic talon]

shockingly a lasgun cannot penetrate power armor 99.99999% of the time

[dusk patrol]

I’m shocked

[arctic talon]

even more horrifying did you know that eldar can dodge your bullets

Rangers and kabalites can turn hits into misses

[dusk patrol]

I apply more bullets

[arctic talon]

so true

but armor being flat damage reduction is hilarious

[dusk patrol]

Yeah I had to promise not to make a tech guy again in our 40k RPG group cause I kept getting too tanky

And we had issues with enemies not being able to hurt me

Like I was completely immune to heavy bolters I think at one point. And everything below that.

[arctic talon]

lol

FFG having toughness and armor both give DR is hilarious

because of how out of hand it gets

[dapper gyro]

I totally get that. I started to look into 40k a decade ago because some people talked about how 50 SM can take over earth. It intrigued me because I like sci-fi-military.

It was the 5th and 6th Edition back then with the Ultrasmurf stuff.

[storm jungle]

Yeah that explains it, that was like THE peak era of 40k brainrot in the internet to some degree where you got wild claims like "Oh they can solo anyone/they can just take over earth"

Abrahms tanks / Drones have left chat

[dapper gyro]

I just think, even if each of the 50 SM has the power of the strongest battleship in human history, they wouldn't last a week vs modern military once we know what they are.

[storm jungle]

Yeah absolutely not lmao

[dapper gyro]

So nowadays, I just like to nickpit in universe only.

Hence my comment earlier.

[storm jungle]

Its important to remember most books portray marines as entirely unstoppable because they are either going against untrained rabble or very much people the author has handed a contract saying "Die and maybe kill a few nameless loyalists as you make them look good"

If it was like real-real life yeah no a company would prob get massacred before they even saw 1 normal human combatant somewhere

theres a reason the way Tau wage war in 40k is so nerfed

[dapper gyro]

Yes, and they intentionally nerf the hell out of the guards so they can't rebel against SM.

[storm jungle]

They SOMETIMES can but we just dont see it enough yeah

[dapper gyro]

So anytime there is a rebel, SM just crush them right the way.

[storm jungle]

Yeah pretty much

its fine to nitpick but i kinda learned after 12+ years that its mostly just "whatever"

at the end of the day this universe works on WWE wrestling/comic book logic

[dapper gyro]

All of the meme from TTS originated from that 5/6th editions. Then we have some nice stuff like the 1s Space Marines game. I actually feel bad for Cato Sicarius.

[storm jungle]

Yeah the mid 2000's 40k era was a very interesting albeit braindead time.

TTS has very much done some awful damage to the fandom as awhole too (still love Alfabusa tho hes the goat)

[opaque coyote]

TTS has done as much bad and good

As DBZA did for the Dragonball fandom

On one hand

Introduced many people to a new piece of media
A clear love letter to the thing it's parodying as well

Plenty of memorable jokes for fans

Etc.

On the other

Unintentionally popularized flanderized interpretations of characters/events

And also made it so that some jokes are repeated to death

...

TTS Magnus is still my headcanon voice even after dipping my toes into the fandom more.

Those Australian tones are memorable.

[vagrant fox]

It's the 40k fandom, I'm seeing memes from 2009 to this day and it won't ever stop

I don't like TTS, I don't find it funny or interesting but as long as people are having fun it's fine. I did have the unfortune of playing a 40k TTRPG with a guy who took it as 100% canon though, my eyes rolled so far my optic nerves suffered damage

[storm jungle]

The 2009 memes are largely dead.

Some of the popular ones simply evolved/mutated to be relavent ala shovels, failbaddon etc.

Alas cant have nice things 💀

[vagrant fox]

At least the Blood Raven memes are still around

[storm jungle]

To be fair thats all they got going for them

[vagrant fox]

Shame they got abandoned after DoW2, but it is what it is

[storm jungle]

Yeah, what a shame.

[paper haven]

I feel as though you aren't genuine when you say that

[dusk patrol]

Next you’re gonna tell me tanks in 40k aren’t an ideal design and the guns are ridiculous

[arctic talon]

They showed up in a 9e campaign supplement

🤓

[dusk patrol]

They get mentioned and show up sometimes yeah

[hazy cedar]

What would the upper spires be like compared to "throneside" if that's just in the middle of the hive?

[dusk patrol]

A lot nicer

More light

[hazy cedar]

Yeah

[dusk patrol]

Maybe trees and stuff, gold stuff

[hazy cedar]

Probably would be above the smog layer

[dusk patrol]

Maybe

[rose thorn]

Hello chat

[shell mason]

alright

[opaque coyote]

Actually because I'm bored

Genuine question

What is the most ridiculous "small arms" in warhammer

[dapper gyro]

Yes, but no.

[rose thorn]

Me irl

[dapper gyro]

30k era Volkite guns. Created and crafted during the "dark age", used by normal human to blast off SM and even vehicles. The way that it works is just "ridiculous".

[opaque coyote]

Yeah I think my favorite part is how it basically emulates ray guns that like

The 1930's "grey head" aliens use

It's a neat parallel

[dapper gyro]

Indeed

Btw, I assume you mean human weapons.

Because the nekrons are beyond ridiculous.

[tough haven]

How does this description of the outside of a water treatment plant turned ganger hideout sound?

"The gargantuan water purification plant stands before you, dominating the area. Its massive walls rusted from constant exposure to the caustic chemicals used to render the water semi-drinkable. Several makeshift guard towers and catwalks have been hastily welded to its exterior, with hooded gangers keeping a halfway eye on the run down streets below. Several pools of putrid water have accumulated in holes worn in the rockcrete around drainage pipes. Doorways lie open with poorly made barricades visible beyond, with the boisterous voices of gangers and sounds of strained machinery calling out from within."

I feel like it needs more but what

[sacred ginkgo]

Is the purification plant active?

If so, describe the noise

[tough haven]

Yes but ailing

without the ministrations of its enginseers it barely works

[sacred ginkgo]

Then describe how the normally steady drone of the plant is being whiny and irregular

If you have a mechanicus party member tell them how the machine spirit sounds to be in pain

[tough haven]

The slurry it produces is only slightly less toxic than the starting point

[tough haven]

Hows this description of the interior sound?

Once within the facility turned gang hideout, the smell of chlorine is overpowering, burning your lungs. (Make a DN 2 toughness check to avoid coughing) Where there would normally be the steady thrum of engines and machinery, there is only irregular whining from the huge purification units. Without the care of the Adeptus Mechanicus, the blessed machines are left to the ravages of entropy. The slurry that emerges into large vats is only marginally less toxic than the waste water being pumped in. The Sump Spiders are gathered around tables made of scrap, drinking bootleg amasec (effectively moonshine) and arguing. “Can you shut off that throne damned racket! I’ve got a pounding headache!”
“What do I look like? A bloody technomat? I’ve rubbed oil on it, I’ve kicked it, I’ve prayed to the bloody Emperor himself and it still won't quit!”
“Speaking of, what do you think that stuff we pulled off that Cog was? It didn't look like any piece of tech I’ve ever seen, gave me the shivers just looking at it.”
“Beats me with a lead pipe, the boss won't even talk about it. Sounds like he wants to wash his hands of this whole job as soon as possible.”

[sacred ginkgo]

I didn't mean quote my adjectives verbatim but its good

[tough haven]

I tried to make it more like asthmatic wheezing but I couldnt get it to fit

[sacred ginkgo]

Bad gurgling

Its a chemical process

[tough haven]

I wanted to add more details on the gangers, but I'll make the party have to inspect the surroundings more closely for that

[opaque coyote]

So

One of Ghazghkull's first

"""Enemies"""

Was actually Red Gobbo, a communist goblin/grot.

And one of Margaret Thatcher's political opponents was a British Communist named Derek Robinson.

Otherwise known as

"Red Robbo"

[low gazelle]

having no context to this

Makes the names funny to me

[celest dome]

Damn that's true

[opaque coyote]

What an interesting ""coincidence"" huh?

[celest dome]

It just show that Warhammer was a caricature of the British culture

[misty vector]

Two red gobbos… one versus a monster, and the other versus ghazghkull

[queen laurel]

I certainly did not expect to see this today

[raven stone]

Someone somewhere has pointed out that if you squint *really closely..
Mag Uruk Thraka.
Margaret Thatcher.

Congratulations, you cannot unsee this now.

I have cursed you all with forbidden knowledge.

[storm jungle]

I do love how the writer for that went "No its not a joke on margaret thatcher"

yeah sure buddy lmao

[queen laurel]

Yeah it's really hard not to see the similarities when things like that are a thing

Like the iron lady and the iron ork?

dude

[storm jungle]

yeah its just to avoid flak

which is kinda stupid but beats me lol

[queen laurel]

well it's just one of those things that is funny but you don't really bring up

[shadow plover]

https://trademarkfilms.com/films/d121a6f6-231f-481d-86bc-3fe5ee83847f

Definitely checking this out

[storm jungle]

Wait is this a movie

[shadow plover]

A documentary

[storm jungle]

damn 😔

[shadow plover]

Saw glimpses of Trench Crusade and Tuomas Pirinen in the trailer too, huge

[green loom]

Wow the new corvus design is kinda cool

https://www.tumblr.com/vipervagner/767553689931202560/fem-corvus-corax?source=share

[gray umbra]

She can send me to deliverance alright

[shadow plover]

To the mines you go 🫵

[gray umbra]

Miners

https://youtu.be/3tceRS5hWaA?feature=shared

[green loom]

Cut to the Minecraft trailer

"As a child, I YEARNED for the mines"

[spare osprey]

10/10 movie

Easy

[shadow plover]

Movie using a stale internet meme as a joke has never been good

[spare osprey]

“YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE A HERO BRIAN”

“Heh, I think I kinda like that name”

[misty vector]

clearly the one old guy that kept him from going into the mine is herobrine

[storm jungle]

lmao

[dusk patrol]

You guys are gonna feel dumb when it turns out it’s an Oscar winning thoughtful introspective movie about how Jack Black’s agent fucking sucks

[rose thorn]

Excited for the reveals tomorrow?

It’s probably gonna be ||empire for old world, orruks for AOS, guard for 40k, and probably a tank or something for HH :p||

[gray umbra]

New models?

[rose thorn]

||all I know is empire is getting new captains (and supposedly that’s it) and kruleboyz is getting a new hero and ironjawz is getting a spear head||

No clue what ||imperial guard is getting|| be sides a coded

Heard it is ||krieg|| but I have no clue

The only reason I know the other stuff is because it was leaked and sold on eBay

[tough haven]

He does carry every movie he’s in though

[spare osprey]

I’m expecting a consul for HH

[rose thorn]

Tbh I have no clue how they expect to add new content to HH without adding a new army

[spare osprey]

Mhm

I honestly want some early daemons

Stuff for the ruin storm

Or cultists

[rose thorn]

its wierd because the store page says there is cultists but there is no cultist models lol

if there is every hh cultist models

im very very curiou s

to see how they differ form 40k cultists

if you had to give your favorite armies a new unit what would it be

ill take any more shooting for genestealer cults

[shadow plover]

Imperator Titan

[spare osprey]

Actual fallen minis

[celest dome]

40k:

• A Tech Priest troop (Something like Secutors)
• New Mime Harlequin
  Necromunda:
• Esher Gardener with Chain Pruner (Like a Chain Halberd/Billhook)

[runic path]

Imperial Guard needs actual trenches

Or some kind of static defense

[gray umbra]

They do trenches

Theres a whole hammer and bolter episode where some runner and his escort are going through trenchlines to deliver a message

Oh shit are we talking tabletop or lore

[acoustic hinge]

Nice work read 🤓

[storm jungle]

I wasnt the biggest fan of the book

but hope you enjoy it

[shell mason]

[storm jungle]

Oi, no judging book reads

[acoustic hinge]

Damn I forgot black library is crazy price on hardback

Just no longer printed

[shell mason]

shame

[acoustic hinge]

Always the story of the guy buying a book in non English, price is a giveaway

[storm jungle]

Its not a terrible novel at all its just that its a bit mediocre, definitely has a lot of neat bits tho.

Also is like THE only insight into the 4th Tyrannic War atm novel-wise so have fun lmao

[acoustic hinge]

I opened halfway and saw a character revving his chain sword up

[storm jungle]

There IS some stupid stuff like (idk if this is a spoiler) where the marines are trying to see how the Tyranids function?

But like

you are Ultramarines?

You had 3 wars with nids?

You should know they are a hivemind???

[acoustic hinge]

Yh just stop already

U don’t win

[storm jungle]

LMAO yeah

Otherwise its a fine book have fun

[acoustic hinge]

Thanks

[lyric geyser]

[dusk patrol]

Let me check the calendar we have for everyone’s primaris update

[lyric geyser]

Awesome, can't wait

[acoustic hinge]

I would prefer that one, unclean marines

[shell mason]

[acoustic hinge]

Long live the red Gobbo😭

wtf is that haha

[shell mason]

lmao

[acoustic hinge]

Reading a orky book has got to be fun

[storm jungle]

its very fun

if you want another read after this super recommend Brutal Kunning

[acoustic hinge]

Is there mechanicus books

Magos character etc

[storm jungle]

Yes, a lot actually

#40k-book-club message

check out this link to the blog and search for the mechanicus section

[acoustic hinge]

🙌🙌🙌

Damn it says horus heresy to start with

Yh no 😭 that would be so confusing for someone new

Nice 7 books for mechanicus

[storm jungle]

LMAO yeah no ignore the Horus Heresy stuff

but Forges of Mars is the best one to start with, its a trilogy of books

[crystal forum]

start with end and the death

that way you get to experience the worst of 40k and you wont ever be disappointed

[storm jungle]

[crystal forum]

dilara what is the weirdest introduction to 40k you've ever seen somebody have

[acoustic hinge]

^

[storm jungle]

Uhhh

I think i have to give mine, which was this:

https://youtu.be/QTufU1GqORk

Randomly finding this DoW2 intro voiced over with TF2 sounds 15 years ago randomly on youtube, it was my intro into 40k when i was in my Valve phase

[opaque coyote]

Personal introduction was the first space marine game

It was free so I got it

And played it

Found it fun

[acoustic hinge]

Bolter 🔥

Damn my dad took me to gw when I was like 11

I’m 26 now

[outer wave]

Personally it was a bit of one of my teachers in high school that had 40k models, and much earlier in life when I was really into RTSes

Didn't play DoW but I read up on it a little

[acoustic hinge]

Assault on black reach starter set 🔥

Wow that came out 16 years ago lmao

[crystal forum]

my intro is boring af

got recommended a luetin video on youtube by the algo when i was like 17-18

then decided to read gaunt's ghosts

[queen laurel]

i discovered warhammer because of dark crusade

[celest dome]

I joined 40k through fantasy

Both with VT1 (that I by chance played in a store)
and with Dreadfleet (Big cousin had the TT)

[crystal forum]

i think the strangest part of my introduction is that it took me 18 years to learn about 40k

[rose thorn]

Also did everyone see nemesis claw got its own data sheet?

The other upgrade sprue units might get their own units too

PLSSSS im betting for a generic brood brother unit PLEASEEE

[acoustic hinge]

Playing dark crusade on my grandmas laptop

I still play modded soul storm from time to time

[hallow plover]

Daring yet tasteful

[storm jungle]

👌

[pine wedge]

conversely I had the most normal introduction to 40k possible

miniature display in a Games Workshop store window caught my eye as a kid, asked my mom if we could go inside to look

the rest is history

[pine wedge]

based, one of the first books I read as well.

[rose thorn]

What would be the worst book to start with for 40k lore

[acoustic hinge]

Perfect intro

[crystal forum]

end and the death

[rose thorn]

Lmao true

[crystal forum]

preferably the last

[acoustic hinge]

Will make my kids go in even if they don’t want to

You are starting this hobby !

[spring cairn]

There was an annual medieval fair where I lived, and there was this stand where a bunch of dudes played this weird warhammer fantasy tabletop chariot racing game

that's how i learned what is a warhammer

[pine wedge]

it was wonderful. she later bought me a tyranid battleforce for my birthday. never even finished painting them because I was 14 and stupid. but then the books caught my eye

started with Eisenhorn

still goated

[acoustic hinge]

I loved the Halloween nights at game workshop back in the day

[rose thorn]

AHAHAHAAHAHAHDVAJDMANSH

[spring cairn]

i remember exactly that they were using beastmen chariots

[acoustic hinge]

Bring a unique character and fight zombies lol

[rose thorn]

That’s probably literally the most cursed way to start warhammer

[spring cairn]

i never actually played it

[acoustic hinge]

I have a black Templar box and fish box unbuilt 😳

[spring cairn]

it just made me aware of warhammer

[rose thorn]

I’m lame I started with vermintide

[acoustic hinge]

I wanna do the tau box but everytime I open it up I’m like uhhhhhh fuck hahaha

The cb anyway that is

[rose thorn]

Then I dated a girl who really liked warhammer

[gray umbra]

Dow1 was my introduction

Thought sindri was cool as fuck

[queen laurel]

same here

[spring cairn]

there was also a dude with a live brown bear that did tricks

that was sick af

[acoustic hinge]

Original dow style or the newer dow

[rose thorn]

I’ll puke when people start saying space marine 2 was their intro

I’d die of old agar

[acoustic hinge]

They don’t even play games in my “warhammer” shop anymore

Saturday was game day everyone turned up on the tables

Playing warhammer in the warhammer store on their table is no better 🔥

[gray umbra]

Original rts dow

[acoustic hinge]

Fire

Voice acting in those games

💯

The psyker 🤪

[gray umbra]

Sindri makes me gay ngl

Also time for the newest woke controversy

[acoustic hinge]

That game is not real

[echo vault]

Does anyone have any clue what kayexs full body looks like

I assume like hadron or the dawn of war enginseer model

[storm jungle]

Okay so

im not a stalker expert

but like... arent almost every person in the zone to some degree contractors, locals or foreign operatives?

[spring cairn]

stalker 2 is woke

how could the based eastern devs fail us so

[storm jungle]

Black

[rocky gale]

The Sweetbaby infiltrators strikes again

[rose thorn]

reddit

suprsied no one has thrown a fit about a black guardsmen on the 40k subreddit yet

just ealized my city (asthetically) is dark water the size of new york

[hallow plover]

Comfy?

[brazen talon]

The only foreign things seen in the first 3 games are some stalkers with names and accents from the Caucasus, and a crashed US drone

[rose thorn]

ikr, seattle has the prefect climate

[brazen talon]

Ara in Shadow of Chernobyl, Armenian name and accent
Ashot in Clear Skies, same as above and he mentions he's from Sochi which has a large Armenian minority
Vano in Call of Pripyat, Georgian name and accent

[brazen talon]

The mercenaries are working for foreign interests but there's no indication that any mercenary isn't a local

[hallow plover]

I wish. Western mapleland is beautiful but living costs are insane

[gray umbra]

Ex-military, criminals, military, scientists or homeless people

Mostly homeless people

[opaque coyote]

Honestly I just wonder how fucking funny it would be if an Earth Caste Tau and a Tech Priest were forced to work together

"So. How do you repair this."

"Okay firstly."

Reveals barrel of olive oil

"We apply this"

"Uh huh?"

"Then we pray"

[opaque coyote]

"Yeah..."

ten thousand religious steps later

"And then finally we tighten the screw"

"Okay how much of that was necessary to actually repairing it."

"All of it."

"Even the ones about getting a bunch of 'Cadian Brand' lube?"

"I mean you could skip that. But the machine spirit would be uncomfortable."

"What the FUCK is a machine spirit?"

[scarlet plank]

||"He does it to void liability in the insurance agreements."||
[Runs away]

[tough haven]

Please someone make this a book

A machine spirit is the little guy inside your computer that makes the pictures move

[opaque coyote]

Due to Machine Spirits actually being a thing.

It would be funny if some of the steps were actually necessary

Because warp trolling

[tough haven]

Gpu stands for goober picture unit

[opaque coyote]

Like imagine the Earth Caste Tau just repairs a machine like normal

And then it just fucking explodes because they didn't apply enough sweet fragrances or some shit

[tough haven]

Oh you know drones are getting corrupted by the warp the instant they get into fights with chaos

[opaque coyote]

"Holy shit. Maybe they are real"

[opaque coyote]

The Tau drones are actually showing signs of

Sentience

So

That's promising

[tough haven]

Slay

[acoustic hinge]

Is it possible for a tau caste to be corrupted by chaos

[arctic talon]

Yes

[acoustic hinge]

🤪

[arctic talon]

There’s a few examples of water caste and ethereal caste being corrupted

Also some fire caste tau got horribly mutated during the death guard invasion

[acoustic hinge]

I just read supposdly humans have more impact to corruption so chaos don’t bother with tau so much

[arctic talon]

Tau are more annoying to corrupt

[acoustic hinge]

I guess xeno

[arctic talon]

As well

Dimmer soul

[acoustic hinge]

Small souls

Yes

[arctic talon]

It’s harder to nab it

[acoustic hinge]

Spikes on the pauldron go hard

[storm jungle]

[gray umbra]

Yoooo

[acoustic hinge]

now i want to make my tau chaos

[hasty crown]

Does anyone know the lore on Ogryn jaw plates? does it make them bite harder or something

[rose thorn]

somethings not right here....

[storm jungle]

theres no lore on it

its just a jawplate

[crystal forum]

it looks cool

[storm jungle]

^

BUT if an ogryn is seemed "good enough" he might get a bionic replacement jaw that can bite hard

[hasty crown]

Cause on the cosmetic description it says, this is one of the most basic examples of augmetic enhancement

[storm jungle]

Yeah "basic example"

[hasty crown]

So I’m assuming the enhancement is just a bullet proof jaw

[gray umbra]

Theres augmetics for everything

[storm jungle]

its not standard issue

[storm jungle]

^

[crystal forum]

@dusk patrol is the bionic jaw connoisseur

[storm jungle]

I always tell any smoking relative/friend of mine:

"I mean its good if you stopped but if you wanna kill yourself like that be my guest"

[paper haven]

Cut out the middle man and implant a nicotine dispenser directly into your lungs

[gray umbra]

To play devils advocation withdrawal goes hard

[sour hornet]

I would be the best Inquisition acolyte

I have no moral quandaries whatsoever about anything

basically

[thick cedar]

Does the mechanicus actually repair things or do they just pray and hope for the best

[queen laurel]

they do repairs

They make and maintain basically every single type of technology in the imperium

[dusk patrol]

All the rituals are generally based in the repair or maintenance procedures

With some extra stuff added

[dapper gyro]

Depending on the cult, a little of both.

[dusk patrol]

They basically all do both

It’s like asking if marines shoot people or use melee weapons

[dapper gyro]

Some are more focusing on actually developing and crafting, like Cawl's faction, which in the lore is disliked by some other mechanicus sub factions.

They are also more "realistic" in thinking, I believe one of Cawl's underling even dares saying that reviving the Emperor is not a bright idea while still believes in Him. So they are more or less more practical than the usual pray and hope.

[dusk patrol]

They still all do it, yes some develop stuff but Cawl still is a heavily religious figure

And uses rites and canticles and stuff

It’s not like the ritualizing is even inherently a bad thing

[arctic talon]

Cawl’s personal faction are unhinged and weird in their own ways tbh

But mechanicus rituals are actual repairs generally speaking

Even if it’s redundant/lengthy

[opaque coyote]

They're the more mad scientist unhinged

Instead of the religious unhinged

They won't servitorize you for adding an attachment to your bolter

They will however. Use you as an experiment for their super cool new project that will be completed in 20000 years or so

And then proceed to turn you into an Operation Game

[arctic talon]

They might also servitorize you

[opaque coyote]

Only afterwards tho

[opaque coyote]

The common Mechanicus past time that all factions can agree on

[arctic talon]

Cawl’s lead skitarii marshal having her current body be an exact replica of her human body but in metal is hilarious

[opaque coyote]

Like do they just have no fleshy bits anymore

Since most Mechanicus peeps have a bit of skin left at least

Unless if they are REALLLYYYY high ranking

[queen laurel]

so basically a cyberpunk person?

[dapper gyro]

Never say anything about that

As a matter of fact, soldiers do rub a lot of CLP (gun oil) and pray for machinegun won't jam...

[arctic talon]

They do have fleshy bits still

A lot of her body is replaced with metal though and all her skin is a shiny silver metal

[queen laurel]

so do they still want to become completely machine or is that completely out of the question

Like it's that still like one of the most wanted goals of the mechanicus?

[storm jungle]

They want to get as close as they can essentially

but the Mechanicus creed is so crooked some do want to become fully like a oven

[shadow plover]

Not sure but I think a fully replaced brain isn't doable, anything else can be ultimately done(?)

then you have something like Cawl who has replacement brains essentially or whatever his deal is

iirc he has a way to transfer/implant information from a brain to another

[storm jungle]

Cawl also still has a few body parts left

hes not even fullway Adam Smasher yet either

[shadow plover]

yeah, but even those are probably not his original flesh parts

[storm jungle]

Flesh is flesh so it works

🥩

[dapper gyro]

The brain is replaceable, but then they would need tech like the Men of Iron capacity to store conscious, which is a big no go especially for the Tech Priest.

If I recall correctly, Cawl is not a single brain, but many chained together with his original brain as the main circuit.

[storm jungle]

Basically yeah, you need some meaty parts left with no artificial-intelligence at play

[hallow saddle]

$80 for a FW character model jeez 💀💀💀

didn't realise quite what the markup is outside the UK

[shadow plover]

Brexit

[storm jungle]

Those 30k players will pay for anything too so i cant blame the hustle

[shadow plover]

EU at least has the option the get those items form the EU storage

also I presume that's Canadian or Australian dollars

[rocky gale]

Bruh

[hallow saddle]

ohhhh, right

[shadow plover]

and here what that would cost me

[hallow saddle]

I actually forget other types of doolairs exist

£28.50 here

Which is $35 US doolairs

[dusk patrol]

It’s Canadian they’re fake dollars

[hallow saddle]

I'm somewhat tempted to get him for Iron Hands 40k conversion fodder

[dusk patrol]

It’s a good model

Easy to make fit for any legion too

[hallow saddle]

2 great bionic heads too

[rocky gale]

Alas FW Resin

[hallow saddle]

Honestly I don't have an issue with resin at all

It's really nice to prepare

So easy to sand and drill etc

[dusk patrol]

It’s good for what they use it for primarily these days

Which is character models or more detailed, single models

[hallow saddle]

Yeah

[shadow plover]

I keep saying this but modern FW resin is stellar

[hallow saddle]

And dreads are fine

[rocky gale]

Na

[dusk patrol]

It was just a huge pain when the entire army had to be resin

[hallow saddle]

My second ever models I did were FW resin & found em really easy to work with

[rocky gale]

Got an eightfold harvest lord less than 2 years ago, absolute nightmare

[dusk patrol]

I do think people overstate how difficult it is to work with

[rocky gale]

I ended up throwing it away

[hallow saddle]

It's understandable if they've only tried making tanks for example

But the characters, infantry, dreads, etc, totally fine

I have a dreadclaw and the plastic parts are genuinely worse than the resin

10x worse

[dusk patrol]

I can definitely sympathize with how often miscasts happen with the bigger stuff

[shadow plover]

and more often than not the issues stem from the overused molds than the resin or the technique itself

[shadow plover]

I hope you contacted the support and got a replacement?

[rocky gale]

Na, I was having a meltdown and wasn’t thinking

[shadow plover]

ah, I think I recall a discussion we've had on this before as well

[rocky gale]

Like eightfold harvest lord was one of my favourite models, before I started collecting it was one I always wanted, then I got it and it was just such a nightmare, nothing worked, I couldn’t build it, I couldn’t fix it, none of the glues worked and I got frustrated and fell apart

[shadow plover]

that sucks

[hallow saddle]

Yeah, that sucks, sorry 😔

[acoustic hinge]

Are death korps imperiums best

[shadow plover]

they're not even the guard's best

[queen laurel]

no they're not

[acoustic hinge]

which sub/detatchment would be

[storm jungle]

None.

Every regiment/formation is good for something niche/specific.

The galaxy and its combatants or horrors are too diverse.

[queen laurel]

yeah you usually pick the guard regiment or combine two to combat a specific threat

[acoustic hinge]

right some depending on what planete u liive would highly add to how u peform on the field

[storm jungle]

yeah pretty much

Krieg are good at sieges and thats kind of it

they get slaughtered en-masse like anyone when the situation goes to shit

[queen laurel]

yeah they basically either use artillery to pound your position after which they will attack with infantry shock assaults

Or if they're defending something fortify the position and use artillery to their advantage

[dapper gyro]

Using artillery before pushing is the very basic tactic that everyone uses, not limited to the Krieg.

[storm jungle]

Dont try to apply real tactics to 40k

author knowledge of war comes from wikipedia

[queen laurel]

yeah i didn't even say that it was limited to them

[storm jungle]

Krieg is also very much advertised as "tons of artillery The Regiment" so

[queen laurel]

i just say that they specialize in it

[storm jungle]

its kinda whatever/handwave'y

[dapper gyro]

Nah not applying real tactic this time.

When I hear of arty in the imperial guard, I think more of the Mordian or Praetorian.

[storm jungle]

Eh same thing.

Either way though again Siege Dudes™️

half the artillery stuff the guard has minus the basilisk came from Vraks, which was a Krieg centric thing too so they were very much pushing for that angle

....even if its Forgeworld

[dapper gyro]

I think people love the Krieg because of its Grim Derp recruitment and training. Which is both their strength and weakness.

[celest dome]

Lucifer Black or another of the Old Hundred or what ever ?

[storm jungle]

Uhhh dont know about that one

[dapper gyro]

Solar auxiliar something

[storm jungle]

Nah people love Krieg because WW1 + Gasmasks

people with basic military tastes always gravitate towards that archetype

its why people like the Helghast or the cops from Jinroh

https://tenor.com/view/helghasts-gif-27644476

https://tenor.com/view/jin-roh-robot-creepy-gif-12714379

Its very low tier Cool Looking Fascist thing

[dapper gyro]

But the Steel Legion....

[storm jungle]

Look

we didnt say they got taste

theres a reason S.Legion fans dunk on Kriegers when they get the chance lmao

[dapper gyro]

Well yes

[queen laurel]

Yeah if we're comparing the stereotype amount usually you would find more deranged people in Krieg

[storm jungle]

Yeah Krieg remains the most dominant/vocal because "they look cool" along with other WW1/2-boo shit.

Im not saying you cant like Krieg of course but there is a reason their "surface" fanbase just brigades them

[queen laurel]

Yeah it's just that they belong in one of the factions that if someone likes them you have to be a bit cautious

[dapper gyro]

If the Krieg is the best at anything, it is to be grim derp imo.

[storm jungle]

Lmao not wrong

They deffo enter the most dystopian guard regiment origin wise yeah

[dapper gyro]

To go back to the previous question Stormtrooper/Tempesus Scion regimens are already a notch better.

Krieg has elite grenadiers, but they are never regiment size.

[storm jungle]

Yeah Scions are the SEALs essentially

down to other branches hating them for having the best gear/toys

Stormtroopers may as well not exist anymore since GW forgot about them

[dapper gyro]

They are more like US Army Rangers, actual elite regiment with all of the support and not a small elite group like Seal/delta.

[storm jungle]

But... they are a small elite group

its more that their branch is massive

[fallen marsh]

Steel Legion never got huge line of models. Krieg got a lot of stuff in Siege of Vraks. And it was one of the best lines from FW.

[storm jungle]

For better and for worst

[fallen marsh]

You would think that regiment based on panzergrenadiers would be more popular....

[storm jungle]

Yeah but S.Legion were not really as overtly about it

Krieg got the checklist of all the things war-a-boos like

[dapper gyro]

Pretty much

[fallen marsh]

They were expanded much more. If SL had whole product line you would be saying that about them.

[dapper gyro]

Catachan on paper has the strongest individual soldiers. If Darktide is getting Catachan, they should have their own class.

[storm jungle]

Very much disagree with this

Krieg got the WW1 fighter appeal

its why you see shovel memes everywhere

again they are cool but the wider surface fanbase focuses on the lowest denominator things about them, its why they are EXTREMELY popular

the model line push by FW just introduce them to the playerbase, then it took off itself from there

[fallen marsh]

They got memed to death. Most people don't even know anything about them aside from shovels and "we want to die" meme.

[gray umbra]

BAYONET CHARGE

[dapper gyro]

Mordian and Praetorian are also ww1 inspired, but they don't have that grim derp in them.

[fallen marsh]

They have almost no lore in comparasion

Preatorians are british colonial troops

Orcs Drift exist

[dapper gyro]

Depending on the source, some of them can be Napoleon era troops as well.

Tanis 1st and only (?) has little lore, but has so many fans.

[fallen marsh]

Their basic look is red coat with pith helmet

[storm jungle]

Yeah and they still remain extremely popular

Elysians are cool as hell and had their own model line and nobody cared about them

[fallen marsh]

memes keep them going

[storm jungle]

Its very much not much beyond "gasmask man in trenchcoat is cool"

[storm jungle]

And brings GW sales as people buy their KT sets/FW stuff

so in their eyes it very much "just works"

[storm jungle]

To be fair "little" lore is insane

they got like...

13 books?

[dapper gyro]

They are cool, but look too much like Cadia, which you already know.

[storm jungle]

First time hearing this comparison

[gray umbra]

IG specops with edgy past and camo cloaks. Definitely gonna be popular

[storm jungle]

😭

Also yeah Tanith are not extremely popular but they are very much still relavent

and still appear in guard codexes

[dapper gyro]

I'm 100% not the 1st to say that

[storm jungle]

Ive been a 40k fan for like 12 years

its REALLY the first time ive heard this

the other complaints are usually stuff like "poor man's ODST"

which... not wrong tbh

[fallen marsh]

Tanith was super popular when books were coming out.

[storm jungle]

Yeah they were more "fresh" on peoples' minds

[dapper gyro]

It surprises me that you never hear about that.

[fallen marsh]

But they got their models too late to be more popular.

[storm jungle]

I think its because tan undersuit with green armor is kind of a "default" look

[dapper gyro]

I mean, the internet is big like the galaxy, you can't know everything I guess.

[storm jungle]

Cadians sometimes get mixed by the wider fandom to also be "oh so these are regular imperial troops" so i guess it is what it is

[gray umbra]

Also some people dont like to read books

[dapper gyro]

Absolutely

[gray umbra]

A lot of people actually

[storm jungle]

Some people being 80% of the fandom 💀

LMAO jinx

[gray umbra]

🙂

[dapper gyro]

Nowadays fan making fun of "another Cadian want to be Regiment" with all of the recycled troop designs on GW shows.

[storm jungle]

the popular trend rn is everything being Cadian

its like that scene from the Matrix 2 where Smith shoves his hand into someones chest and turns them into himself

doesnt help that they are the mainline troops for the purchasers

[fallen marsh]

GW also likes to puch their look into any media. Cuz they have boxes to sell

[storm jungle]

^

they are the posterboys yep

the Regular Armymen

[fallen marsh]

They should have sacked them after Cadia got destroyed and create new main line regiment

[pine wedge]

fair assesment

[storm jungle]

[dapper gyro]

I think that it does hurt the Elysians.

[storm jungle]

Elysians are like one of many Cool But Forgotten regiments

the problem is like

people ask for them back

[pine wedge]

money talks 🤷‍♂️

[storm jungle]

then never buy them

theres a reason their lines got terminated

[pine wedge]

I bought two of the Elysian sets we got, they were M I N T

[storm jungle]

MINGIN'

[pine wedge]

darktide skins not minis.

[storm jungle]

the darktide skins were the most showcase they got in 2 decades

they are very fucking cool too

[fallen marsh]

yes but imagine how many boxes they would sell with completely new line.

[storm jungle]

everything on the models is custom lol

[pine wedge]

too bad the skins didnt come with a grav chute backpack item...

eugh. oh well

[storm jungle]

if only...

[fallen marsh]

At least Taurus venator is back

[storm jungle]

then again its a parachute

so i guess i can live with it

[pine wedge]

you are correct that it wouldnt make sense for our rejects to wear it BUT we literally just got a power armor backpack item that literally says in the description "not sure what you're gonna do with it" because ... no power armor

our rejects are wearing literally whatever just for the drip.

real fashionheads.

a nonfunctional grav chute for the cosplay would have been fine

[storm jungle]

You cannot be an Inquisitorial warband member without being a driphead

🗿

[pine wedge]

true and real

[storm jungle]

The safer bet is to usually introduce stuff through Kill-Team, its less cost (since its like 6 models) and saves them from spending more time on making an entire range.

Elysians will deffo come back through KT

Catachan is firstup tho deffo

[dapper gyro]

I like the Vet infiltration set, the practical drip that I would actually wear in combat.

[pine wedge]

I'm re-reading Eisenhorn and he (Abnett but also the character) stops to describe his immaculate fits all the time

it is clearly important to him

very funny

[storm jungle]

It raises his morale points

[pine wedge]

like Harry du Bois putting both of his shoes on

[storm jungle]

lmao

[storm jungle]

Darktide is probably the most intense drip exploration we got in a 40k game so im all for it.

Ogryns/Psykers especially

[fallen marsh]

Oh for sure. They don't like any risk. And people will be happy to buy KT boxes.

[storm jungle]

Yeah KT is great for that

[pine wedge]

yeah we went from having two or three possible ogryn appearances to eight hundred million

[storm jungle]

^

[pine wedge]

that's why darktide will forever be the goat

ogryn representation

[storm jungle]

for 30 years all we had for ogryn was a fucking tanktop and pants

[pine wedge]

[storm jungle]

and like, the bullgryn set

and that was it lol

[fallen marsh]

But ogryns get the coolest backpacks

[dapper gyro]

Psyker drip is meh because of the forced collar.

[storm jungle]

The collar adds to it imo

[pine wedge]

the fucking ARTILLERY TIRE AAAA so good

why is he carrying that around? because nobody has told him to stop doing it.

[fallen marsh]

You can shout "Emprah take the wheel"

[pine wedge]

oustanding lore.

[gray umbra]

Everytime eisenhorn mentions his body suit and barbarisater

[storm jungle]

Dont forget the tight bodysuit his female retinue members wears

[gray umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/tarantino-killbill-beatrixkiddo-crazy88s-gif-9713357

[storm jungle]

Yes Dan we get it

[pine wedge]

making Eisenhorn physically attracted to the daughter of his former pilot that is like 100 years younger than him was very funny

[dapper gyro]

Now I suddenly want a game with the temple assassin so they can get more drip other than skin tight suits.

[gray umbra]

Instead of suits its just purity seals

[pine wedge]

but a little horniness is good for 40k, it keeps the material rooted in its pulp origins.

[storm jungle]

Now lets read this sex scene thats going to cut the black on the first kiss

[dapper gyro]

Sister repentia got you covered

[pine wedge]

like I said, a little horniness.

tasteful, brief, but never explicit.

drags from cigarette

l'art.

[storm jungle]

[dapper gyro]

When they added the 2 handed chainsword, so many people asked for repentia.

[queen laurel]

you mean the Eviscerator?

[dapper gyro]

Yes

[storm jungle]

ah yes

I wonder why they asked

[vagrant fox]

It's been a while but doesn't Ravenor describe his life support chair all of the time as well

Something something sleek black surface it's so cool

[pine wedge]

iirc Ravenor is written from the 3rd person, unlike Eisenhorn

but yes Abnett describes it constantly

to be fair it is very cool. hovering monolith tomb containing the mind of a very powerful psyker? hell yeah

[shadow plover]

Abnett... Where is my Pandemonium... Abnett please...

[hallow saddle]

i want Mordian drip

that would be sick

Shout out to the Mordians

[queen laurel]

Hey Dilara what happens when 2 Greater Daemons Fight in the material plane and one of them kills the other?

Do they just go back or do they experience true death because they were killed by another demon

[storm jungle]

They always respawn back

Truedeath is only possible through mcguffin weapons usually like the Emperor's sword

[queen laurel]

i see

aight thanks

[storm jungle]

[shadow plover]

and you see, my OC inquisitor Steve McDarkface has these bullets imbued with the bone dust of the emperor (he has enough of them for them to be basically unlimited) that he can dispatch deamons with his trusty stub hand cannon giving them true death (he is feared by the ruinous powers)

[storm jungle]

LEGIT

[queen laurel]

Lmao

even my ridiculous ork oc would need to be riding his Maw-krusha to fight a Greater Daemon equally

[storm jungle]

ork logic is "I need you to spawn back so I can kick your ass again"

[queen laurel]

The perfect opponent is an opponent that can never die

[rocky gale]

Always love how unserious the Beatles were in interviews

Interviewer “How did you find America?”

Beatles “we just turned left at Greenland

[acoustic hinge]

Doesn’t break hit it harda

[storm jungle]

"Whats your favorite type of girl"

"My wife"

Yea in retrospect maybe his wife wasn’t his favourite

[celest dome]

It's localised time

[hallow saddle]

That should show up in ur time

[celest dome]

So I see 19:00

[rose thorn]

OHHHH

THATS SO COOL

[celest dome]

You should see something else

[rose thorn]

I see 1pm

[hallow saddle]

[rose thorn]

THATS SO COOL I DIDNT KNOW DISCORD DID THAY

[celest dome]

Honestly a joke mode for Bloodbowl that is Warhammer Snowfight would be funny

[queen laurel]

you excited for new Kruleboyz?

after all Ironjawz got all the attention

[small grail]

i want terminator drip bro

this looks so cool as well

[rose thorn]

I hope we also get cav next to the hero

Also I hope iron jaws get another priest or wizard

(And better rules)

[crystal forum]

i swear to christ that bottom left panel is referencing something

that pose

idk what though

[celest dome]

@crystal forum was this what you thought of ?

[crystal forum]

i have never seen this image before but it's absolutely peak

the asscrack

the fat ratio

[acoustic hinge]

Red gobbo does best

[queen laurel]

yeah ironjawz got faster options because they needed it so hoping Kruleboyz get one as well

[rose thorn]

Alternatively I wouldn’t mind if both orruks get a hero they can both use

Like kragnos

[queen laurel]

that would be good

[small grail]

if they gave full body control to dreadnoughts wud they be better in fight?

like the pilots had all their body parts

[celest dome]

Wouldn't really change anything

Other than wasting a soldier who could be fighting without the resource expenditure

[outer wave]

This is more old lore from what I remember, but space marine power armor does recycle waste

Id imagine there's decent enough waste disposal systems in place within the upper echelons of a hive city, but it gets worse the lower you go

I honestly have no idea why an apple is there

Holy shit they gave krieg the goliath tank mine lmao

[rose thorn]

OMG THAT HORSE IS PERFECT FOR GENESTEALER INFECTED HROSE

[queen laurel]

Okay i will admit this is pretty sick

I love the horse

[hallow plover]

It even has cables plugged in it's neck

Nice sculpt

[queen laurel]

It would also look pretty good in a dark oath conversion though

[languid meadow]

More commissars hell yeah

[outer wave]

Its cool to see Krieg getting new models

[green loom]

Stream dead lol

[outer wave]

Even if their hay day popularity is long past

[green loom]

Like hell it is lol

They're still by far the most popular thing save marines

[queen laurel]

ok damn

[jade holly]

I just realized, with all the skulls does 40k even try to sell in China due to their no skull thing?

[outer wave]

I would argue they were more popular mid-COVID than now, but you're right they're still really popular

[green loom]

That's why they got their own army list instead of the rest of the guard roster getting refreshed

[queen laurel]

Okay i will admit

[green loom]

No they're still the most popular thing outside of marines lol

[queen laurel]

They are single handedly making me like Krieg more

[languid meadow]

the flamer emplacement is crazy lmao I love it

[rose thorn]

More brood brothers

[outer wave]

They dont got a Hades drill equivalent do they?

[languid meadow]

Old world time

[queen laurel]

yeah let's see what they have

[shadow plover]

they remade Arvus Lighter....

Do I need a third one

[rose thorn]

Send?

[rose thorn]

Oh wow zero new empire models

[shadow plover]

greatest little bird that ever was

there was at least one

and some new units in the books that weren't shown if I heard right

[rose thorn]

It’s kinda crazy too remember cities used these models for years

[arctic talon]

They sell in China, the skulls are allowed since 40k is marketed as an 18+ thing

[rose thorn]

What’s being revealed now

[arctic talon]

Uh
