Well yeah WITH goofy sci-fi tech

#

tho i do love that one doctor's video where like he puts every single marine organ into account if it was on a space marine

#

and makes like

dusk patrol
#

Well yeah I mean its basically impossible because thats hard to do but the concepts aren't bad.

storm jungle
#

an artistic presentation

#

and the marine just looks like a fucking corpse-like mutant

#

i think my favorite was "yeah he has no proper jaw because acid saliva tends to melt your mouth off"

shadow plover
#

wasn't that the Winter Miniatures video, not the doctor one

dusk patrol
#

Well that ignores how they don't always have the saliva

storm jungle
#

I cant remember

#

theres like 3-4 "doctor explains Marines" vids

dusk patrol
#

The doctor one engaged with the ideas more.

#

Which I always appreciate in "Expert reacts to"

#

Yes Expert, we know this gun isn't exactly super accurate

#

Just engage with the idea

storm jungle
#

I like it when the product itself is overrated

#

like Jonathan Fergusson outright insulting cod guns is PEAK

#

the armour guy doing Warhammer stuff was great too

storm jungle

well also having a heart attack i guess but i want my entertainment so he can suffer

"Yeah these guys are PEAK"

Tzaangors

dusk patrol
#

Its basically the only time we've seen them in proper motion.

storm jungle

I still will not forget when Imurah first appears and lands on his disk

#

and my ear got assaulted from how much my friends were "pogging" 💀

#

"Can we be with THAT guy" KEKW_ogryn

dusk patrol
#

The new exalted Tzaangor has some fun animations too

storm jungle
#

Its very basic but it looks good enough

#

i do laugh when it does all that fancy shit but dies to 1 eliminator headshot tho lol

#

or maybe my Brother Skibidus is just busted

I imagine eldar also need less sleep than humans too

dusk patrol

Eliminators fuck up most things in one shot

storm jungle
dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

Yeah their biology is literally superior in every way mostly. I remember some guy in r40klore asking who would win in a naked (not gay) tussle between an Eldar and a Human and everyone unanimously mostly said eldar lol

shadow plover
#

what the fuck do you mean not gay

storm jungle
#

: )

dusk patrol
#

Wrestling is always gay

#

Even if its a guy and a girl.

storm jungle
#

Fighting naked against a vile xenos but no homo

#

dusk patrol
#

Some poor guy on my team had to wrestle a girl on another team in high school who was actually kinda hot.

shadow plover
#

they were just close friends

dusk patrol
#

I've never been more impressed in my life.

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

He legit was like

storm jungle
#

I mean mood id be too and im a chick :

dusk patrol
#

When he saw who he was gonna have to wrestle

storm jungle
#

its like that fucking scene from Police Academy

dusk patrol
#

I think he just pinned her really fast and dipped.

#

He was quite good so that helped.

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Nowadays womens teams are much more common

#

Which is nice

#

Lot has changed in ten years.

shadow plover
#

they should wrestle me

storm jungle
#

The existence of women is definitely becoming more common fact than cryptids.

dusk patrol
#

But I also live in a major wrestling state and theres been a hard push for more women wreslters across all levels in the past ten years

#

WWE, Olympic, College, International, High School

storm jungle
#

it brings in more PR and has the chance to dig up latent talent mostly yeah

#

well that and people love watching women fight for real or for entertainment as much as big burly dudes so lol

#

Insert Rhea Ripley clip here

dusk patrol
#

Pfft Rhea is normie shit

#

Chelsea Green is where its at

#

No but actually Helen Maroulis is probably my favorite, shes kinda in the twilight of her career sadly but her fucking leg sweeps are vicious.

#

Theres a lot of really good young talent though coming up though.

storm jungle
#

This is the PEAK content i watch youtube for

shadow plover
dusk patrol
#

Watching that live I was actually worried she fucking killed the other girl

#

But I think she was ok, fucking brutal though.

#

I got suplexed once as a heavy weight, jfc its really the worst thing ever

#

Would not reccomend.

shadow plover
#

I got lumbago last week from putting on clothes and was bedridden for the rest of the week. think I'll pass yeah

dusk patrol
#

That feeling as you realize whats happening is awful.

plush mason
#

thats a real thing?

shadow plover
#

Lumbago?

plush mason
#

yes

#

this is my only exposure to it and iirc he was lying

shadow plover
#

tbf didn't know the english name for it and would've thought he was talking shit too before getting it myself

#

it's called "The Witch's Arrow" in my native language

#

it also fucking sucks, such sharp pain you literally just fall to the ground and can't get up

plush mason
#

i assume its in the lumbar area

shadow plover
#

correctly assumed

storm jungle
shadow plover
#

funnily enough I had finished RDR2 for the first time 4 days before getting it

plush mason
storm jungle
#

I legit assumed Lumbago was someones name

#

i never played the game lol

It is a real thing yeah

my girlfirend hwos obsessed w/ trains is telling me how all of itworks

it has front couplers, janny couplers, the correct wheels,

tough haven
#

40K if there had to be nuance or moral grey area instead of “it’s ok because they’re horrible xenos”

#

It’s always chaos or xenos influence, people can’t just be like “you know what? I’d like to not be beaten to death every day”

queen laurel

perfectly balanced as all things should be

also ending the train with an empty flat is like, ana ctual thing trians do

Hey an interesting guardsman design

storm jungle
#

40k very much suffers from the said above issue but like it has a semi-valid reasoning because again we gotta sell minis

dusk patrol

Seems unlikely they'd still be around with how they're portrayed in Only War, but its unlikely they'd come up anyways

# storm jungle lore

how does an average sigmar war priest stand up to a chaos warrior in warhammer fantasy

storm jungle
#

Uhhh "it depends

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

theres that one hilarious trailer where a priest is praying and about to body a chaos warrior

#

and the chaos warrior just

#

instantly turns the tide

#

and fucking smashes his head in

dusk patrol
#

Chaos Warriors and Warrior Priests vary wildly

storm jungle
#

Yeah that

#

its literally just

#

"it depends on training"

#

also their weapons/drip

outer wave
#

I feel it depends on the writer of the scenario, like many things in Warhammer

dusk patrol
#

Some are absolute monsters, with wild powers and shit. Both of WP and CW

#

Some are just dudes who are a little built.

storm jungle
#

Saltzpyre is ironically a pretty good showcase of said powers

outer wave
#

Im sure someone would write a funny scenario where a gnoblar manages to get a one up on a Chosen and kills him

Actually piloting a titan

queen laurel
humble shoal
#

Sounded awesome as fuck

dusk patrol
#

THQ had a bunch of 40k licenses and stuff which obviously went kaput when they went under.

#

But it did lead to the much better time we're having now with Warhammer games so

queen laurel
pine wedge
# storm jungle

This is why the Imperium exists. To foster baddies like this in the upper echelons of its societies. Billions must die so this hot mamzel can fall to Tzeentch. Nice

dusk patrol
#

Plus tbh I doubt the MMO would have been that sucessful.

pine wedge
#

Or slaanesh whatever

humble shoal
#

Baddies fall to nurgle

dusk patrol

This was the era where everyone was trying to make a WoW clone.

queen laurel
humble shoal
#

But the concept of piloting a titan

pine wedge
#

@storm jungle I just read The Magos for the first time, I assume you hated it?

dusk patrol
dusk patrol
#

Like Warhammer Online

storm jungle
#

wait the Eisenhorn one?

pine wedge
storm jungle
#

No I liked the book why

dusk patrol
#

The Magos is the best Eisenhorn book

pine wedge
#

Well it has Enuncia

storm jungle
#

I mean yeah but the book is good

dusk patrol
#

Of all of them, Bequin, Eisenhorn and Ravenor

storm jungle
#

also Enuncia is used like THE least in that book

#

its very much a pointless side-plot device

dusk patrol
#

There's always been dumb stuff in Abnett books, Eisenhorn gets a fucking lightsaber at one point.

pine wedge
#

Alright fair that's how I feel too. And I'm reminded of how I always somehow feel Enuncia is less stupid once I've actually read Abnett's actual writing that uses it. Wiki summaries make it all sound so much more stupid than he does

dusk patrol
#

Abnett is a good writer though so it doesn't matter, its more proof that the concept matters less than just writing good dialogue and characters.

storm jungle
#

The thing is you can largely forget this by reading the book

#

and like, you know

#

focusing on the actually good stuff

#

Its very much an anime superpower, thats it

dusk patrol
#

There's a ton of movie plots and whatever I could summarize and they sound dumb but if you execute them well it doesn't matter.

pine wedge
#

I got a new Eisenhorn omnibus which had The Magos at the end, to my pleasant surprise. I was rereading it and didn't know that book existed. Now onto Ravenor again and then finally the Bequin stuff

dusk patrol
#

Same as theres plenty of ideas and concepts which are awesome if you tell me them but then the book or movie or whatever sucks cause it wasn't done well.

storm jungle
pine wedge
#

I first read Eisenhorn in 2007, I'll live

storm jungle
#

same

#

when Bequin 2 came out i was like

#

"Who?"

#

"OH RIGHT"

humble shoal
#

I liked when alaric the grey knight became a chaos cultist for a book, sacrificed a bunch of faithful to tzeentch and then was promoted to captain

dusk patrol
#

Magos is just a nice book though, also fairly uncommon completely good ending for a character.

pine wedge
#

Fat stacks and his baddie back?

dusk patrol
#

Has a little excitement, gets the girl and a bunch of money.

pine wedge
#

I also liked that Cherubael was pointedly not in it, aside from that outstanding fever dream sequence.

dusk patrol
#

Yeah its a bit before Eisenhorn really goes off the deep end.

pine wedge
#

It was cool to see Eisenhorn make do without him

dusk patrol
#

Or the catalyst for it I guess actually.

storm jungle
#

Cherubabe's deus ex machina stuff in general can get a bit meh so i agree, its nice to see Eisenhorn on his own once in awhile

pine wedge
#

Yeah it's badass and I'm a sucker for good men staring into the abyss and enslaved daemons and all that shit but sometimes a story just needs that kind of power to be absent

storm jungle
#

ı cant comment because i just like seeing characters suffer lol

#

people always told me id get sad watching Eisenhorn lose his entire retinue/friends but it was too black comedic for me to care personally lmao

green loom

What if I enunciate DN

storm jungle
#

Not if i do it first

Same. My favourite character of my own writing was continuously suffering, with the initial push being unfortunate circumstances and then the rest being down to him reacting incredibly poorly and making things unfathomably worse

There's a point in the Eisenhorn novels where he's saying how much he likes Gudrun and he describes it as something like "the rare shining example of the culture I've devoted my life to protect," basically saying "god I fucking hate everything else"

structured to scratch that skaven itch

while in age of sigmar and fantasy they are more the classic big brute army that a simple brained chimp like me would like

Gorruks are iron jaws because they are basically bigger than everyone and like Gork

Anyone got any interesting characters someone might meet while at a party for the wealthy in the lower hive? I don’t know enough like detailed nevromunda or imperial lore to come up with many

also the feature keeps recommending me eternal's activity like we're good friends or smth

queen laurel

There is also the inquisitorial school of thought that wants to rebuild the imperium from the ground up because of how rotten it is

#

Let's just say that they're never going to succeed

Inquisitorial politics are a soup itself

It does not help that the definition of fascism changes to suit the fascists goals

forest orbit

at the end of the day oppressing people is evil lol

#

Iron hands was the least interesting legion to me tbh

#

Second most boring is the dark angels

#

Third is the blood angels

storm jungle
# humble shoal Second most boring is the dark angels

My favorite part was Dark Angels fans complaining that the Lion's return messed up the entire purpose of the Chapter of hiding a dark secret/hunting the fallen as if that shit was in any capacity interesting to begin with.

#

DA fans are either stuck with that mindset or the other which is "I wish we had some plotlines that didnt have Fallen as the twist villain in every story climax"

rose thorn
storm jungle
#

I like DA but i think their Chapter is almost Imperial Fists tier in how bad and boring they are.

#

I hate about as any marine fan who tries to defend their boring asses

humble shoal
#

All of the legions other than that have something going for the.

humble shoal
storm jungle
#

Yeah thats about it.

#

and thats just

#

"Oh he fights good and says one liners"

#

cool so basically every Chapter character lol

storm jungle
humble shoal
#

Also black templars are angery

#

Which gives some benifit to the fists by extension

storm jungle
#

Templars are good when you treat them as essentially a joke chapter like what GW does, its why I LOVE that one Crusade fleet mrudering their primaris reinforcements

spare osprey
# spare osprey 2nd one

like the legion in 30k had secrets and shit, plus the hunt for the thunder warriors. but they still had other stuff

#

why do we just have to be fallen hunters?

storm jungle
#

Yeah no the 30k DA are BASED

#

40k DA are just... uh yeah

spare osprey
#

which is why fallen themselves are supremely better

storm jungle
#

They keep the black/red scheme

#

i gotta simply agree with this take

#

also let me get my Space Marine likeness list

crisp heath
#

I think the dangles are cool

storm jungle
#

I made this like 5 days ago but still pretty fresh on my memory

spare osprey
#

i can fw the MM ranking

storm jungle
#

If I had to make 1 pick it would be the Raptors as a supreme-choice

#

the others are largely whatever

spare osprey
#

fair, haven't looked into them enough but i'm a fan of Pete the wargamers conversions

storm jungle
#

They are pretty basic lorewise id suggest giving their wikipage a single read at least.

#

What sold me on the supreme-choice was them actually attaching small numbers of Marines to units of other Imperials on the ground or actively giving battlefield/logistics advisorship on warfronts etc

#

them acting like a part of the campaign is pretty neat

spare osprey
#

so actual basic strategy lol

storm jungle

Lmao yeah

VRAKS NOOOO

I do love how they arrive a SECOND TIME

just as the battle is basically won

and go "yeah so we want that Arkos dude, hand him over"

spare osprey
#

it was a team effort

#

so it was a fair ask

storm jungle
#

group assignment ahh 💀

#

I always loved that though because most lore entries never really establish Marines really do sometimes just not care about large campaigns unless it directly affects them lol

#

well mostly for Chapters that got better shit to do at least and arent duty-bound

-come in out of nowhere

it blows most "warzone" stuff from today out the water, one of the main reasons i miss Alan Bligh so much

crystal forum
#

stories showing the incompetence of the imperium always have a special place in my heart

storm jungle
#

Same, especially when people get mad at them

#

"WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS, IS THE IMPERIUM STUPID?"

#

Yes.

crystal forum
#

and it all started because imperium decided to send in an assassin with poor target information instead of talking to the guy

storm jungle
#

Yeah thats what i love about it

#

i dont know how to word it but like its in-universe'ly realistic if that makes sense?

#

the entire situation absolutely spirals in a very understandable manner

crystal forum
#

imperium causes their own issues then half ass their way around it until somebody actually competent arrives and facepalms

"Yay we made a breach in the wall SEND EVERYONE IN!"
