[tough haven]

Ikr? It speaks deeply to the unrealistic expectations of society

[crisp heath]

It's definitely a well-done visualisation of a lacanian deconstruction of modern social structure, bringing its moral pitfalls under a unique light in terms of the neokantianism occurrent in the later french existential movement.

[magic ivy]

[opaque coyote]

Somebody did the math and apparently Shockwave cannot see 46 feet in front of him.

[rocky gale]

Give that red talon a Christmas Santa hat

[rocky gale]

Thank you

[tough haven]

Psychic control device, helps insulate the user from outside psychic interference

Whether or not it really works well is up to interpretation

Bolter from 40K

[plush mason]

unironically bigger than a bolt round

a bolt round is 20mm

[tough haven]

As always, America does violence more over the top than even fantasy parables for militarism

[plush mason]

tbf 30mm has been the standard for most launched grenades for a while

[restive zodiac]

I was about to say 40mm, but you’re right with the 30. I was thinking about the m203

[plush mason]

yeah thats basically an HMG that fires big ass grenades

[restive zodiac]

Wait, you talking about the mk19?

[plush mason]

oh yeah lol

[restive zodiac]

The 203 is the under barrel lol, all good

[plush mason]

i always forget the 203 fires 40mm lol

[restive zodiac]

Yeye, 30 is standard for civilian launchers i believe (don’t quote me)

Anyway, that rifle is pretty sick lol

[plush mason]

its basically a full auto rotary grenade launcher lol

with higher ammo capacity

[restive zodiac]

Ye

[dapper gyro]

Mk19 is also 40mm

[restive zodiac]

Yep

[dapper gyro]

I got to shoot the HK GMG, the German equivalent.

[rocky gale]

Are they letting Dan Abnett write WarCom articles now?

[storm jungle]

To be fair festoon is a normal enough word

Dan would have used something more dumbass and archaic lol

[rocky gale]

The fuck is a festoon

[rocky gale]

No regular human has ever uttered this word

[storm jungle]

I literally only ever heard it form sailors/pirate movies so you arent far off

[rocky gale]

I was thinking Shakespeare, but ironically pirate talk is like one of the closest accents to how Shakespeare would have been pronounced originally

[tough haven]

What do you guys use to draw maps? And secondly can it be done on mobile and pc? I’m at work bored and was hoping to draw my campaign maps on something like paint

[storm jungle]

Paint is usually what i use

[restive zodiac]

Siiiick, you’re military, I’m assuming?

IM SO JOLLY

[storm jungle]

Feliz Nvidia

[crystal forum]

what would a 40k christmas story be like

all the good guardsmen getting extra rations

[storm jungle]

i think theres a literal story titled Sanguinalia Day Massacre

[rose thorn]

Crazy that the grotmas stuff has almost been purely space marines

I really wasn’t expecting so many space marknes

11/24 have been space marines (chaos and codex and non codex)

[rocky gale]

11 Space Marine and 15 non Space Marine isn't too bad

Like didn't every faction get a detachment?

Was anyone forgotten?

White Scars?

Are they a codex compliant chapter?

[crystal forum]

lmao

[crystal forum]

is votaan there

[rocky gale]

Votaan got one yea

[crystal forum]

idk what their symbol is

[rocky gale]

It's the Ancestor head thing

Number 17

[crystal forum]

oh that's a lot more obvious than i expected lol

[rocky gale]

Haven't looked at their detachment but friend who plays Votann was happy with it

[crystal forum]

what's the blue ouroboros looking symbol on number 4

[rocky gale]

Said it was Ymir Conglomorate themed

4 Is Alpha Legion

I think

Maybe

I can't remember

[crystal forum]

i thought alpha was a hydra

[rocky gale]

Maybe Thousand Sons

Yea Thousand Sons

[crystal forum]

honestly surprising that GW could make most of these symbols recognizable

i wonder if their branding people do this stuff

[rocky gale]

All the detachments are fun or fluffly atleast, some are pretty good ruleswise, some are alright

[shadow plover]

yeah, they do be compliant

[rocky gale]

The Sisters one seems really fun and is the kind of detachment I've wanted for them, but it seems like it was probably written before the recent rules nerf for Sisters and hasn't been changed to compensate

Like it's thing is burning your less useful miracle dice, but the recent nerf makes it so you've got a lot less miracle dice

[dapper gyro]

Part time, but yes.

[restive zodiac]

Neat, all my family is retired Army, but I have a lot of crayon eating buddies also

READ THE FUCKING WIKI YOU FAT SLAGS

[humble shoal]

thought the necrons just didn't do ftl

[storm jungle]

[humble shoal]

[dusk patrol]

I had someone who thought only Tau had really FTL

Like

[humble shoal]

at least I knew they didn't use any form of the immaterium I have read barely anything on the encrons

[storm jungle]

Lmao fair enough

[storm jungle]

Honestly probably not the worst post from today, im just scrolling out of boredom

[humble shoal]

the tau are the good guys right, theyv even work for the greater good. And they are the good guys because they are kawaii and have gundams and only the good guys have gundams

[storm jungle]

Im gonna kill myself

“Hey guys I’m kinda new to 40k and I had a couple questions?

#1: which primarch has the fattest hog”

[humble shoal]

jagthai khan

he goes fast

[dusk patrol]

The worst thing is this isn’t even an exaggeration

[humble shoal]

all real men know there is nothing more important than cranking their hog

except listening to their lovely wife

[shadow plover]

100%

I wish it were summer so I could go outside to crank my hog

[sullen cape]

Just head south. Sooner or later you will fine a place In summer.

[shadow plover]

I wish that were a viable option

[crisp heath]

the arctic be like

[shadow plover]

you ain't too far off

[crisp heath]

i thought about it too. which one is the right term

t. i have three university degrees

[shadow plover]

arctic is the northern pole and antarctica is the southern, but I meant that I'm not too far off from the arctic circle

[crisp heath]

alright i went south as far as i could and now i´m somehow back in the exact same spot????? wtf?????

[shadow plover]

Pretty wild

[young pecan]

What about the Tau makes them bad again?

They do like mind control and have pretty bad social caste stuff going on, right?

[dusk patrol]

They’re a brutal totalitarian, authoritarian, regime which enforces a genetic caste system and expands out, consuming and destroying cultures while crushing any dissenters and people who resist, has no problem with experimenting on its people and citizens and torturing kids, and does it all under a guise of “the Greater Good”

They don’t take no for an answer when joining them, and if they can’t take control slowly through trade they’ll do it by force

They’re very evil, they’re just in a setting with worse

[storm jungle]

They're basically just China on steroids when it comes to the way they function as an empire with a sprinkle of the Covenant from Halo.

[young pecan]

Is it like brutal utilitarianism or just the rich people getting to do whatever they want

[hallow plover]

They're a good race to bully

[young pecan]

Dilara makes it sound like the latter

[storm jungle]

[dusk patrol]

It’s a totalitarian regime

He government is always correct, any dissent is crushed

Tortured, re educated out, or imprisoned and they do whatever

[hallow plover]

Plus some pheromone/mind control shenanigans

[young pecan]

So the second one

Never get any cool brutal utilitarianism rep..

[dusk patrol]

All other races are second class citizens, only the higher caste can rule

[storm jungle]

Its a mix.

Tau lore is also a mess

so keep that in mind lol

[dusk patrol]

It’s not really “rich people do what they want”

[storm jungle]

They very much got a lot of positives as much a lot of awful negatives

[hallow plover]

Is the last tau book out?

[dusk patrol]

It’s a caste set up, it’s not class really

[storm jungle]

Yeah it is.

and for once its good

thank god for no Kelly

an Ethereal also jokes about the "kill yourself" incident

[hallow plover]

I liked Shadowsun... ||because my fav faction is bullying the tau||

[storm jungle]

Didnt read it so 😔

[hallow plover]

I've only read Shadowsun and Fire Warrior so my tau knowledge is limited

[storm jungle]

Mines in the middle, I also dont really trust tau lore from other people usually lol

[hallow plover]

I don't trust other people for any wsrhammer lore

[storm jungle]

id read more about them but most of their books suck balls, its like reading a space marine novel

just replace bolterporn with drone explosions

also tau just never being smart lol

[hallow plover]

Plus a gazillion tau terms

[storm jungle]

Yeah that too

[young pecan]

Is that a real world reference

[storm jungle]

No i meant like tau drones

not Ethereal O'bama

Yes Fire Warrior bombing the governor's wedding was very necessary (he deserved it)

[shadow plover]

I'm half way through Fire Caste, which is like the second book with even a mention of Tau I've listened, the first Cain book being the first

so not much factual info in my head either

[storm jungle]

Fire Caste is a imperial guard book disguised as a tau novel

also its that one vietnam movie

and has... 40k confederates

literally got no idea what the fuck the author was thinking lol

[hallow plover]

Aun've was berating the shas'la and be'gel for a dec now

My sentence makes no sense

Why are orks bagels

[shadow plover]

confederate doesn't mean JUST the one confederate from American history

[storm jungle]

[shadow plover]

it's just a term for a coalition

[storm jungle]

THEY LITERALLY GOT A DUDE NAMED JAKOB DIX

also they participated in a civil war

they very much are based on them

also another dude named fucking Obadiah Pope

[crisp heath]

Jakob Dix NUTS lmaooooo

[storm jungle]

it was so distracting i legit barely got through the novel

[storm jungle]

Its so braindead

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Arkan_Confederates

[shadow plover]

Good thing I don't care enough about american history that I didn't even make the connections before this

[storm jungle]

Its not really that hard to connect

so lmao

[hallow plover]

Who even knows american history besides americans

[storm jungle]

Uhhh do americans know their own history

[crisp heath]

@shadow plover she just called you stupid, are you just gonna let that sit on you?

[forest orbit]

Bro I was going CRAZY reading this book

[shadow plover]

She does it all the time

[forest orbit]

the confederate shit was crazy

[shadow plover]

also I'm not american

[forest orbit]

i legit had to do a double take reading it at first

[storm jungle]

same its so fucking funny

like what the fuck was he genuinely thinking

[hallow plover]

Its ok, i will be american soon when trump annexes canada

[forest orbit]

I thought i was alone before i had to ask some friends if i was like reaching before they just kinda poitned out all the dumb southern shit in the book regiment

[storm jungle]

LMAO

[shadow plover]

I suppose it makes it pretty clear the Guard aren't the good guys

[storm jungle]

Honestly im more surprised the author didnt make them slavers

but i guess it would be too on the nose

and well, the Imperium does en-masse slavery

so rip

[forest orbit]

yeah its not really needed

becayse yeah LOL

[crisp heath]

If he didnt make them slavers then what is the point of the whole reference even

[storm jungle]

Just confederate bullshit I guess?

Theres people that exist that find them "cool"

(who always turn out to be racist weirdos mostly)

[forest orbit]

its like the space marine pfp users always being assholes

EDIT: SHIT I AM ONE

we literally had a guy yesterday here being homophobic lol

[storm jungle]

bro i lost my shit at that one

i still havent banned him

I should get to it

[forest orbit]

[dusk patrol]

I don’t get what the issue is, it’s a little ham fisted but like it’s not like that’s the only bad thing 40k makes a faction based off, there’s also Soviet stand ins, Nazi Germany stand ins.

[storm jungle]

also eternal if you are gonna write some dumb "who cares" post im legit gonna rip your eyeballs out

oh my god

shut up lmao

[dusk patrol]

I mean yeah idk why someone who doesn’t even have a connection to the events is offended

[shadow plover]

He's got a point though

[forest orbit]

I really think theres a bit of a "level" between like you know

literal confederate ripoffs

[storm jungle]

I mean not really

[dusk patrol]

The Confederates sucked, so did the Nazis and Soviet’s

[shadow plover]

most guard regiments are based on some terrible historical powers

[dusk patrol]

It’s a fictional theme

[storm jungle]

"fictional"

mfer they are literally called "confederates"

💀

like at least try to be subtle about it

[forest orbit]

I dont really get the point of the argument

why are we always generalising this stuff

[dusk patrol]

Yes it’s a fictional regiment, I didn’t say it wasn’t hamfisted

[crisp heath]

I will homebrew a regiment based on the power of friendship anf love

[forest orbit]

"all of them are bad so its ok"

[dusk patrol]

Uh yes.

[shadow plover]

I don't see how it's bad either

[forest orbit]

Then what even is your point

[dusk patrol]

Like Colonial Britain did fucked up stuff

I don’t care that the Praetorians exist though

[storm jungle]

I mean you dont

[forest orbit]

then they got them fighting tribal orks

💀

[dusk patrol]

Its a fictional regiment for a brutal authoritarian regime in a fucked up universe

[forest orbit]

didnt those models literally get erased from existence too

[storm jungle]

the tribal orks?

[forest orbit]

yea those lmao

[storm jungle]

Yep

im sure it was due to them being old

[dusk patrol]

It’s not like the Arkhan Confederates have a fun time in the book anyways

[forest orbit]

Then get creative

not just do confeds lol

[dusk patrol]

That’s a separate issue

[forest orbit]

Yeah and still point remains

[storm jungle]

I mean

half of these arguments boil down to:

"I dont care. And nobody else does either."

they mostly do

♻️

[forest orbit]

Well yeah but still

[storm jungle]

at this point its kind of the theme so i dont mind it

anyway Fire Caste is an ok novel

i just kinda got bored reading it since its just Apocalypse Now

[forest orbit]

Yeah same

it kinda lost me after awhile but i still finished it

[storm jungle]

I think its written well enough but theres definitely better mid 2000's 40k books out there

[forest orbit]

I wish it had more focus on the tau personally

since they are literally on the title

[storm jungle]

Well it KINDA does

but ehhhh

I guess the themes carry it

[forest orbit]

War is hell 😔

[storm jungle]

close enough lol

[shadow plover]

I'm only like a quarter in and not much has happened yet, lots of action and dying guard

[storm jungle]

yeah thats a guard novel alright

[forest orbit]

not enough executions

[storm jungle]

that comes later

[dusk patrol]

I mean yes it’s dumb if some cares that a fictional regiment is confederate especially if they have literally no connection to said history to be upset, and if there’s also literal nazi and Soviet analogues

[shadow plover]

there has been a lot of talk about them though

[dusk patrol]

Yes

[storm jungle]

Look

we gotta pick up the pace with the plot

and shift that movie I MEAN book plot into GEAR

[forest orbit]

👏

[storm jungle]

It does get good tho after the opening chapters

[forest orbit]

yeah theres osme nifty stuff here and there Peter is a good author

albeit sometimes too confusing

[shadow plover]

one guy starting to go a bit battle maddened after seeing his first death which was just caused by the dude's own recklessness has been pretty entertaining though

[crisp heath]

Have you been having discussions like this every day for the months ive been gone? I bet you did

[storm jungle]

holy shit its just like Helldivers

[shadow plover]

[storm jungle]

I wanna say that was a lame joke but 💀

[forest orbit]

hey man, you do a lot of emotions when you got low respawns

[storm jungle]

Uhh more or less.

Eternal goes "nuh uh" on something and we argue for like 30m to an hour and I legit lose interest and watch videos on the side while waiting for the argumen to wrap up. Most of the time its just semantics though and pretty funny because I got usually nothing better to do

[forest orbit]

Also speaking of has anyone gotten into Dark Coil yet

[storm jungle]

I always wanted to but I found the books confusing

Peter Feh always does them in like... his offtime?

[shadow plover]

This is the book I'm starting with to get into it

[forest orbit]

Based choice

[storm jungle]

Yeeeee

They REALLY get into the mindfucky warp-stuff though

its one of the things that kinda put me off since i got the brain size of a wallnut

[forest orbit]

Ah I see

[shadow plover]

it's only the first of the only two books that are in audio format by him

[forest orbit]

I might need to look into those audiobookies....

[storm jungle]

they still got some on im pretty sure

[shadow plover]

I'm hoping the two omnibuses coming out soon will also get an audiobook tretment

because I ain't reading allat

[rocky gale]

I am sorry but you have triggered a trap card and I must give backstory on the origins of the names Arctic and Antarctic

Arctic comes from the Greek Arktikos which means "Of the Bear" (Arktos means Bear) because they associated the constellation Ursa Major which is a bear with the North

So they theorised that there must also be a land to the south which is it's opposite which they called Antarktiké which means "Opposite to the Arctic" or "Opposite of the bear"

The really funny part is while the Greeks hadn't been to the Arctic or the Antarctic they were entirely right, the Arctic has bears and the Antarctic doesn't.

[storm jungle]

BRO STOP THIS

[shadow plover]

fuck

[storm jungle]

[rocky gale]

No

You triggered the trap card

[shadow plover]

tldr

[storm jungle]

She really just The Thing™️d him

also holy shit is there ANY word that hasnt come from greek

🇹🇷

[shadow plover]

checkmate

[forest orbit]

bro WHAT is this

[shadow plover]

yeah

[storm jungle]

holy shit MCU phases

[forest orbit]

stfu

LMAO

[dusk patrol]

It’s a loosely connected series

[shadow plover]

shut up

[dusk patrol]

Very good

[storm jungle]

Yeah they are great

again just be prepared for some mindfuck

[forest orbit]

Yeah ill go buy some then, these seem interesting

[dusk patrol]

Unless you get easily offended by fictional regiments being based off not the best people selectively I guess

[shadow plover]

only Fire Caste and The Reverie are in audio thus far

[dusk patrol]

But yes the omnibus will be nice because so many aren’t available

[storm jungle]

bro Fire Caste is from like 1874

[dusk patrol]

Or are hard to find

[storm jungle]

how did it get an audiobook

[shadow plover]

the audiobook was released a few years ago iirc

[dusk patrol]

It’s a popular book

[shadow plover]

like the Iron Warrior book last year

[dusk patrol]

For whatever reason, I think it’s fine but the other are better

[storm jungle]

Damn none of my favorite mid-2000 40k books get this treatment, this is bullshit

[shadow plover]

oh wait Fire Caste was released this year

[storm jungle]

Damn even worse

im old

[dusk patrol]

Yeah they’re

Going through their older catalogue

Wrath of Iron got an audiobook recently too

[shadow plover]

Storm of Iron was released early this year

[storm jungle]

Based.

[shadow plover]

and Titanicus last year

[dusk patrol]

Which is nice

Gaunt’s Ghosts is caught up I think

[shadow plover]

yeah

[crisp heath]

Most words come from greek in the west since greek was the first world language, but most greek words in turn come from indo-germanic, which is the (largely unknown) language all european languages come from

[storm jungle]

Yeah I know im just annoyed 😔

its either that or latin

oh wait

[dusk patrol]

I use clicking noises to own the Greeks

[shadow plover]

imagine going with those mainstream languages

[dusk patrol]

Pathetic

[crisp heath]

Even in turkish?

[dusk patrol]

Normie mouth speakers

[storm jungle]

Absolutely

[crisp heath]

Cucked lol

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-chat-kaanözdil-angry-turkish-man-gif-22160441

me rolling up with the regimental standard

[shadow plover]

speaking of has the new regimental standard been released yet

[storm jungle]

Uhhh

isnt that site literally dead

and has been for like 2 years?

I remember people talking about it.

[shadow plover]

no wait, I confused it with the in world guide book that has a physical release like once a decade

[storm jungle]

LMAO yeah nah not the fanblog

[shadow plover]

yeah not the fanblog

the actual book

[storm jungle]

Yeah the booklet idk i assume so at some point

I SWEAR i think the last 9th edition guard codex came with it as a special order bonus?

ONE boxset had it i swear

[crisp heath]

Oh i must tell you of an adventure

[storm jungle]

uh oh

[crisp heath]

I stepped into a GW store for the first time

Last month

!

[storm jungle]

was it smelly

(this isnt a joke)

[crisp heath]

I was actually going to say next it smelled of sweat.

[storm jungle]

Oh my god

[shadow plover]

can't recall any of the recent ones having one

[crisp heath]

Lol

[storm jungle]

I LEGIT always thought those were memes

[crisp heath]

The minis were cute at least

[storm jungle]

I actually cannot believe people that go there dont bathe this often

[crisp heath]

I looked for sororitas books and they actually had one. Didnt want to pay 18€ though

[storm jungle]

damn

[shadow plover]

the stores I've been to it's more often the issue with air conditioning which sucks and causes the people inside to get sweaty during the visit

[dusk patrol]

It depends, luckily I’ve mostly had stores where a smell policy is enforced

[rocky gale]

My local one always smells alright, I assume they regularly fumigate

[crisp heath]

Shopkeeper was very nice to me UwU

[storm jungle]

I remember someone posting here an image GW put up at an event where they LITERALLY ASKED PEOPLE TO BATHE BEFORE COMING IN.

[dusk patrol]

Too nice, he needs to be more of an asshole and kick the smellies out

[crisp heath]

😄

[dusk patrol]

But yeah magic and war gaming and shit

Smash tournies

It’s gotten better but yeah

Most have an enforced smell policy

Which is still a lot to ask for some

[storm jungle]

My one very mild "bad" experience was me reading the opening page of a book and he was like "hey you cant do that here" lol

Then his shift was off and the next person was like "Yeah you can read a few pages if you want before buying its cool idc."

[crisp heath]

I did have to wonder if i was the first girl to ever enter through that door. I guess i'll never know for sure

[storm jungle]

Uhhh

all jokes aside that is VERY likely

[crisp heath]

WuW

[storm jungle]

Warhammer hobby stores are 99.9% of the time dominated by guys which is understandable.

I got a ton of stares when i went into one in the UK

it was small so less room of escape 😔

(i just bought books)

[shadow plover]

arguably a larger nerd than the average visitor

[rocky gale]

Think that's overblown tbh, there's always atleast one other when I'm there

[storm jungle]

Idk man all stores are different

i do hate nerds tho so

[rocky gale]

and whenever I was there on an anniversary event it was atleast 40% women

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

Damn that is FUCKED up

[rocky gale]

Yea too many

[crisp heath]

Lol

[storm jungle]

too real

[rocky gale]

Driving down the economy

[dapper gyro]

1% of that 1%, there is a female Mortarion. I had the unfortune to see one.

[storm jungle]

aughhhh pain

[crisp heath]

Need to be the only girl at the event so all them silly boys will give me minis for free

[storm jungle]

LMAO

based

[dapper gyro]

The official GW store in my city is quite nice though.

[shadow plover]

imagine living in a country large enough to have multiple GW stores

[dapper gyro]

Though there is one retailer store where it is a nicer place with better prices.

[shadow plover]

there's one and it's at the capital, that's it

[crisp heath]

Do you live in liechtenstein or what

[shadow plover]

actually don't think Liechtenstein has even the one

but no

[dusk patrol]

They do but it’s not for the poors

[shadow plover]

further north

[dusk patrol]

They have all models ever

[storm jungle]

but thats literally every GW store.......

[dusk patrol]

Also they get all the new stuff earlier, they always have Corax

[crisp heath]

Ebin :DDDD suomi on paras :----DDD

[restive zodiac]

My closest GW store is 2 1/2 hours away 😭

[storm jungle]

perhaps its for the better

[dusk patrol]

Such a poor thing to say

[shadow plover]

ough..

[dusk patrol]

[shadow plover]

I can get to mine in 1 1/2 hours I recon

[rocky gale]

Pretty sure we've just the one in the capital as well

But there's unofficial 3rd party stores around

[restive zodiac]

Damn, I’ll shut up lmao. Ohhh, yeah I did 🙃

[shadow plover]

hope you didn't read it as 11 and a half

because 1 and a half is less than you

[dapper gyro]

Oh a Finn here?!

[spare osprey]

I got 2 GW stores “near” me. One of em is the largest in the country so thas always fun to go see

[shadow plover]

[rocky gale]

Like I've a local hobby shop in my town which is partnered with GW

But it's smol

[crisp heath]

Tampere? 🤔

[shadow plover]

the other big T

[restive zodiac]

Same here, our comic shop has some books/minis

[spare osprey]

Last time I went I think they just wanted me to buy random shit, said I played fallen and homie tried to get me to snag a kastelan lol

[rocky gale]

I think it used to be a massage parlour before the Hobby shop guy bought it

[dapper gyro]

The next big GW store I know of is 6h from my city...

[restive zodiac]

Rip

[crisp heath]

Haha oh no :DDD the asshole of finland :DDDDD

[shadow plover]

[rose thorn]

Bets on the Christmas Day grotmas?

[rocky gale]

Emperors Children reveals

[storm jungle]

thats a given

[rose thorn]

Maybe a traitor guard army rule?

[rocky gale]

Hmm

[rose thorn]

For guard

[crisp heath]

I want to take a vacation in lapland sometime, they rent out luxury igloos

[spare osprey]

Another Christmas ork/grot

[rocky gale]

New Traitor Guard models or a Traitor Guard upgrade kit would be cool

[spare osprey]

Similar situation to last year with that lil dude the red gobbo fought

[rose thorn]

Just like ‘50% guard 50% non marine csm ’

[dapper gyro]

You guys wish for all of that, but would you buy all of those?

[restive zodiac]

I’ve always wanted to go to Finland, ever since I learned about Simo Häyhä 😂

[crisp heath]

I would never spend a cent on minis, but i thought about getting a celestine to put on my desk

[dapper gyro]

GW models are not for the poor like me.

[crisp heath]

I want to see the reindeer!

[restive zodiac]

Understandable!

[rocky gale]

What else would I do with my money?

[crisp heath]

One time i met a few finnish people. They were utterly unimpressed that i took the time to learn their language. Finns are autistic assholes confirmed

[restive zodiac]

Also yeah, I got one box of Space Wolves (which I haven’t painted 😅), a 30k SW dude and a chaplain (ig they’re rune priests though?)

Haven’t played a proper game tho, I just stick to the books because I can justify $20 vs $70 lol

[shadow plover]

honestly sounds a bit weird group of finns, because mostly we are very impressed whenever anyone has gone through the trouble to even learn to say good day in Finnish

[rocky gale]

I have one of these with each square filled with Warhammer and have also never played a single game on the tabletop

[green loom]

She tried learning a finno Ugric language

[dusk patrol]

Every Finnish person I’ve met has either been an asshole or very nice, nothing in between

[shadow plover]

if you met them in online games it's a 90% chance they were an asshole

[dapper gyro]

I think Finn people are nice. Maybe because our attitudes are mutual.

[shadow plover]

I fucking hate coming across other finnish people in games, they're always the most toxic pieces of shits

[dusk patrol]

Gamers

Amiright

[green loom]

Statistically if you're a gamer you have a high chance of developing a very small moustache below your nose

[dusk patrol]

There was one funny interaction when I used to play Dota 2 and people would learn slurs in other languages to fuck with other people

And some Korean guy was like “I don’t even know any Finnish slurs you guys are so irrelevant” when some Finnish dude was being toxic

MOBAs really are just

Awful

It was funny but man

[shadow plover]

people playing mobas truly are the dregs of humanity

[rocky gale]

That's why I only play real games, like Overwatch

[dusk patrol]

Marvel rivals is making me feel that rage again

[shadow plover]

Accounts I've never seen have been flooding my twitter feed with Rivals content, I don't want it

[storm jungle]

Block em all

I just wanted to share this clip because elderly violence is funny + Fuck you Stark

[shadow plover]

my folio hat theory is that the game has a huge marketing push through twitter and it's being pushed onto accounts that don't even interact with the content

[storm jungle]

Nah that is 100% likely

especially with how shitty musk's twitter is atm

[shadow plover]

same thing happened with the new CoD

[storm jungle]

Yep lmao

[spare osprey]

It’s true I run 20 of the accounts

[shadow plover]

you bitch...

[spare osprey]

Easy money son

[outer wave]

At least the sex bot accounts dont try and follow me for whatever reason

[spare osprey]

They pay me in squirrel girl photos and chipotle coupons

[storm jungle]

Yeah welcome to musk's twitter

literally the most useless shit and slop options being always pushed in for no reason

[spare osprey]

I straight up deleted my account a month back

[dusk patrol]

That’s why I never used twitter

Losers

[shadow plover]

it's great for hobby stuff

[spare osprey]

Every other notif was a bot following me and every post was people arguing

[storm jungle]

I literally only use twitter for art commissioning and thats about it

[dusk patrol]

[storm jungle]

also blocking 40k accoutns i dont like

[outer wave]

I use twitter to look at cool art

Or hot art

Or both

[dusk patrol]

I only use it to organize terrorist attacks

[storm jungle]

based same

[opaque coyote]

https://youtu.be/b_VxPaXZlK4?si=RePQ_7eL63-3wEUh

[dusk patrol]

Other than that

[storm jungle]

HELGHAN FOREVER

[spare osprey]

I gave up looking at 40k accounts after seeing that dude who shipped himself with celestine

[dapper gyro]

Using forums specific is much better than whatever Twitter is.

[dusk patrol]

Just cause they’re bad guys, doesn’t mean they’re bad guy

[storm jungle]

Helghast are literally nazis but we'll allow this because their dripgame is fucking insane

[shadow plover]

I don't like the forum format

never did

[dusk patrol]

Now sure they maaaaaay have gotten carried away with the nazi deal and maybe killed some innocents but they look cool and are sorta tragic so it’s ok

We forgive

[storm jungle]

Yeah thats a complicated road

because Killzone at its core is Bad Guys vs Bad Guys

the ISA gets away with WAY too much shit

the problem is it wants to tell a message but also you need to get to shoot nazis

[shadow plover]

I wish the games were on PC

[storm jungle]

Same

[storm jungle]

i legit still cant believe we got a killzone crossover

[shadow plover]

can't be asked to setup an old playstation

[spare osprey]

Hard asf to find artists to comm without Twitter tho tbh.

[storm jungle]

^ real

[spare osprey]

I need to spend copious amounts of money damnit

[shadow plover]

killzone and resistance are the two series I'd really want to revisit after all this time

inFamous too but that I still remember really well

[outer wave]

We need a franchise that makes the good guys ACTUALLY GOOD and look baller as fuck, then make the evil villain faction look lame and stupid

[storm jungle]

hell no

remember what Lord Dark Helmet said

Evil will always triumph

because GOOD IS DUMB

[spare osprey]

I’m surrounded by assholes?

Oh close enough

[shadow plover]

Warframe

[dusk patrol]

I do love how hilariously evil they make the Helghast aesthetically

[outer wave]

Keep firing assholes!

[storm jungle]

Yeah this

[dusk patrol]

Like, Viswhatever his name is

[storm jungle]

Scolar Visari

[dusk patrol]

The Brian Cox dude

[storm jungle]

they used stalin's middle name for him

which is fucking hilarious

[dusk patrol]

God he’s so over the top, literally Hitler Stalin

[storm jungle]

also yeah like I CANNOT explain how fucking hype his speech is

[dusk patrol]

He’s great

[storm jungle]

"The strenght of my arms, the holders of my dreams"

like holy shit

[dusk patrol]

Although tbh most of the issue is Rico

[storm jungle]

LOL

[dusk patrol]

Half the games don’t happen if he dies earlier

[storm jungle]

I do love how Rico literally proves his point by fucking blasts him

the ending of KZ2 is also like really bleak

one of the main reasons its my fav

[dusk patrol]

Rico is uh

He’s special

[storm jungle]

"BALD FUCK"

also extremely racist

we approve

[dusk patrol]

The rest of the team are Special Forces

[vagrant fox]

Which one was the Killzone with the divided planet. It was so dumb

[storm jungle]

Shadowfall

[dusk patrol]

Rico is “Special” Force

[storm jungle]

the game that killed the series

because like

this is if the UK nukes nazi germany

and invites the germans to stay in scotland

????

[dusk patrol]

I liked it but yeah it had issues, and they wanted to do East/West Germany and it just

[storm jungle]

Yeah this

[dusk patrol]

Was so hamfisted as to why

[storm jungle]

they literally wanted to do the berlin wall and it just falls apart

[dusk patrol]

Like how fucking dumb are the Vektans

[storm jungle]

^ LEGIT

[dusk patrol]

At this point they deserve to all die from stupidity

[storm jungle]

they also missed the point that what makes Killzone games is its 40k-like Industrial WW2 fighting

not... uh generic sci-fi dystopia city mirrors' edge bullshit

[shadow plover]

my small hope is that the recent popularity with the HD2 collab would bring the KZ series to PC

it is very small though

[storm jungle]

Yeah but its Guerilla

they DEFINITELY will return to Killzone someday

[vagrant fox]

Too bad, recently I've been dreaming about a new Killzone and Tiberian Sun

[storm jungle]

its just a matter of when

they are milking Horizon atm

[storm jungle]

I REALLY wish they used Killzone more like this

like making RTS games and other shit off of it

its such an interesting universe thats barely explored by the writers

[dapper gyro]

Helldivers is the satire on the authoritarian, so that Killzone crossover fits well.

[sour hornet]

helldivers is kino

[storm jungle]

I do hate the helldivers playerbase so no comment

[sour hornet]

I love it

[dapper gyro]

Mind you, Starship Troopers is also satire on the Nazi, yet so many people unironically love that shit (the government of the story).

[sour hornet]

Shouldn't have made them drip so hard

[storm jungle]

To be fair thats more just classic media illiteracy

the amount of people that dont get starship troopers is satire is about the same with helldivers

my favorite thing with HD2 is every time you say the game is satire its playerbase gets MAD

even when the devs do it

[sour hornet]

hard aesthetics make people excuse their morals, yet every satirical author makes their goons super drippy and go "b-but these guys are obviously evil, why are you supporting them"

[storm jungle]

Because cool drip makes you wanna join, its why the nazis had good outfits while its functionalities sucked.

[vagrant fox]

I'm still baffled that people don't get that Super Earth is bad when it's so on the nose

[storm jungle]

Its genuinely hilarious

they LITERALLY had a ukraine war reference which was nuts

[sour hornet]

you'd think after the 17th anti war franchise with sick ass grunts, authors would get this

[proven needle]

How can you not get that ST is satire?

[storm jungle]

same thing

"evil aliens, humans good"

in reality by the end of the movie they rae sending literal teenagers to the front

implying they are running out of men

[sour hornet]

the bad guys in their minds are the literal bug aliens

[storm jungle]

also their first attack against the bugs being a slaughter

and the council going

"NEXT TIME, WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE ENEMY"

[sour hornet]

not the people sending teenagers to fight ravenous bug creatures in a war they started

[storm jungle]

I love that honestly

also that its NEVER outright said

[vagrant fox]

It's not like Metal Gear which is pretty anti war but romantic about people giving their all for a cause. Helldivers is just so blatant

[storm jungle]

Yeah also well, Japan

[sour hornet]

It's because you're fighting aliens, bugs and evil robots, unless you dig into the lore, it comes across as a goofy romp where all you do is shoot aliens for humanity.

[dusk patrol]

Because people don’t care to engage with movies like that mostly, it’s just a generic action movie to a lot of people

[storm jungle]

Its also suppose to be mostly subtle

mostly

[dusk patrol]

HD2 is a little more overt but even that is kinda just

[sour hornet]

"supposed" doing heavy lifting lmao

[dusk patrol]

If you don’t care it’s not gonna be a thing to you

[storm jungle]

Yeah this too

its more just even if you do people get mad at it

which is really funny again

like the Iraq War references are all over yet when you mention it some dumbass will say you are reacing

[sour hornet]

People want games where they play as the bad guys, but complain when you give them that exact game.

[dusk patrol]

All I know is, I’m gonna have a hard time eating all this fried calamari

[opaque coyote]

Also the kid that shows up in "I'm doing my part too"

[storm jungle]

Yeah basically this, at its core no one largely wants to play the bad guy.

[opaque coyote]

Implying that they are going to send actual children

And trying to normalize the idea

[storm jungle]

Super Earth also largely cannot lose because its your characters

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/helldivers-helldivers2-democracy-helldivers-ii-helldivers-2-gif-9589663661936890089

[proven needle]

You don't need to "engage" to get the satire, but I get it sure.

[vagrant fox]

I crave playing the bad guy violently

[storm jungle]

its how the devs show their failures through other ways with the content updates

[sour hornet]

The SS/Brownjacket uniforms aren't helping.

[dusk patrol]

You don’t need to but most people aren’t looking for it or care tbh

[opaque coyote]

People are stupid. Playing the bad guy is fun

[dusk patrol]

Especially because as much as like Starship Troopers

It’s a goofy movie

Verhooven movies largely all are

[vagrant fox]

I just find it's a very low bar and people aren't passing it

[storm jungle]

I dont really think with Starship Troopers them not caring actually ironically doesnt matter when its the point of the movie to be satirical.

[storm jungle]

It absolutely is

[opaque coyote]

It's implied to basically be in-universe propaganda also

[storm jungle]

Also that yeah

the ending literally is JOIN THE FIGHT

WE NEED MEN

the satire is much more upfront

[sour hornet]

Honestly yeah, my biggest complaint is that I can't be truly evil in a lot of games. Baldurs Gate is based for letting you be a psycho.

[opaque coyote]

Also the news casts inbetween

[storm jungle]

its fine if you dont get it but people that disagree with it are morons

[opaque coyote]

Like your watching is getting interrupted by it

[storm jungle]

Yeah its great

"Look at these moronic colonists lol"

shows their mangled corpses

[opaque coyote]

I love the scene where kids just stomp on cockroaches while the Teacher violently laughs in glee

Like she's extremely into it

[storm jungle]

that scene leaves rent free in my head

[dapper gyro]

Metal Gear games are very philosophic, action and motive of each character all aim for the same goal, but different path. It's not satire like most other.

It is a clear anti-war.

[sour hornet]

But choking people out and attaching balloons to them is all I care about.

[vagrant fox]

True, I just meant it's harder to read into unlike something that explicitly spells it out for you like Helldivers

[opaque coyote]

Even Revengeance is clearly anti war

Despite how fun the villains are

[vagrant fox]

Sundowner deserved better

[opaque coyote]

Like Raiden is obviously sick with listening to them yap about their personal philosophy

[dapper gyro]

All MSG games have achievement of not killing anyone, unless scripted.

Sundowner is my favorite Chapter Master

replace the "kid brains" with new neophytes and he fits right in

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/ill-split-you-in-two-sundowner-mgrr-mgr-raiden-gif-26543922

It’s a shame his fight is so easy cause his audio switch for his music is fucking awesome

[sour hornet]

Insanely based.

[opaque coyote]

I fucking love how Sundowner is just unapologetic

Like every other Revengeance villain has another reason

[dusk patrol]

He’s a bad guy, but that…no he’s actually a bad guy.

[opaque coyote]

But Sundowner is like

I FUCKING LOVE WAR!!!

[sour hornet]

"Like the good ol' days after the 13th Black Crusade!"

[dapper gyro]

The stories of Big Boss is tragic. His mentor fail to keep peace, so she decided to end herself so Big Boss can be better. Yet, Big Boss also failed and did the same thing, ended himself and pass it on Solid Snake.

[vagrant fox]

I've often thought about basing a chapter master on Sundowner in a custom sector I'm making

[opaque coyote]

I know of a fan comic about Venom Snake

And honestly it's my HC ending to the series

Essentially harkening back to the original Metal Gear

[dusk patrol]

https://youtu.be/Uufg1Dy0ucU?si=dKgR7TVdlWxC7aZo

[opaque coyote]

Basically

Venom is the Big Boss decoy that fights Snake in the original MG

[dapper gyro]

It is canon though

[opaque coyote]

Yeah

[dusk patrol]

Maybe if his mentor had learned to zip up her fucking uniform she wouldn’t have smh

[rocky gale]

Every Overwatch video on TikTok is just flooded with bots saying it's a dead game and Rivals is better, like even on ones that only vaguely mention it

[opaque coyote]

I do wish we could've had that as an actual sequence though

[storm jungle]

Her taking the fall for essentialyl a U.S-based fuckup is also insane but very believable, she literally was a patriot to the end lol

[opaque coyote]

Like the epilogue is a scripted battle as your character against Solid Snake

[vagrant fox]

I don't remember if it's canon or not, but doesn't BB completely misinterpret Boss' wishes?

[opaque coyote]

And in the end, you get your ass beat

[dusk patrol]

People paid attention to Kojimas schizo writing?

[dapper gyro]

Big Boss trained Solid to defeat him, so that Solid can become a better soldier than Big Boss was, while also taking all the blame, much like The Boss.

[dusk patrol]

What’s next, you guys know the plot for Kingdom Hearts?

[vagrant fox]

I love the schizo writing

[storm jungle]

I mean

[dusk patrol]

I like some of it

[storm jungle]

why do people act like MGS' is hard to get

[opaque coyote]

Also sad since her and her comrades are forever labeled as traitors.

[dusk patrol]

It’s just

[storm jungle]

you literally just need to place in it in order

[rocky gale]

Nobody knows the plot to Kingdom Hearts

[storm jungle]

I get that its confusing

but like its really not that bad

the problem is the cunt keeps saying "this is the last game i swear"

[dusk patrol]

Not wrong

[storm jungle]

lol

[dusk patrol]

I tried getting a summary and uh

Yeah it’s a facade

[vagrant fox]

What's the deep lore of the arms dealing pet monkey who is addicted to cola though

[opaque coyote]

It's similar to how Dark Souls is complicated.

It's the presentation and how it's laid out that's complicated

Not the actual story

[rocky gale]

All you need to know is that Donald Duck has the ability to cast a spell which can kill god

[opaque coyote]

Because I can summarize Dark Souls as

"Man sets fire to himself. Do it again"

[storm jungle]

Hes just a patriot agent that sets Snake up to eliminate Ocelot whos a threat to the A.I system controlling the war economy

[vagrant fox]

I've never looked at Kingdom Hearts and I've been told that Goofy cucks Pete and I'm not looking further into it

[vagrant fox]

It's been long enough that I'll just believe it

[dapper gyro]

Hey, shut up. Donald Duck is a Navy war veteran with PTSD.

[opaque coyote]

Tbf who wouldn't want Goofy

[dusk patrol]

He’s got that corkscrew penis rizz

[rocky gale]

Wrong animal

[storm jungle]

LOL

[rocky gale]

Unless Goofy has got special lore

[storm jungle]

he meant Donald

since hes well, a Duck

[dusk patrol]

Oh yeah Donald not goofy

My bad

[storm jungle]

Im sure ducks treat female ducks with great respect

💀

[dusk patrol]

Donald probably cucks someone else though

So it works out

[sour hornet]

Never again utter this shit around me 💀

[storm jungle]

LKDSLFKLSFKLSD

[dapper gyro]

Anyhow, most Krieg fans are still insufferable because they don't understand satire.

[rocky gale]

Isn't Donald the cuck, since he ends up raising someone elses kids

[dapper gyro]

I hate the hardcore WH40k people so much.

[dusk patrol]

That’s why he cucks now

To get cuck revenge

[storm jungle]

still glad to see this get used

[sour hornet]

Krieg getting remodeled means it's gonna get used alot more 💀

[dapper gyro]

At least with the Cadians, despite them yelling all the time, they keep the troop moral high, a little more rational and they can live a more normal live.

[dapper gyro]

On another note, I see people shortening the Moebian to Moe.

It is so cursed.

[outer wave]

Moe 6th

the lack of a frontal lobe definitely explains how he acts in the game

I genuinely wonder who would go to that extent of enhancing themselves

[sour hornet]

Tbh

I probably would

[dapper gyro]

Glanching at the Iron Hand...""""

[dusk patrol]

I’d do it but I’d look cool

Not like that dork smh

[sour hornet]

I'd go with something more like this

[dapper gyro]

WTF is the point of geneseed if you are going to replace it with steel and plastic anyway?

[shadow plover]

you gotta start somewhere

[dusk patrol]

wtf is the point of wearing the armor if you have the geneseed

[sour hornet]

Maybe a post-human body can handle more intensive augmetics.

[dusk patrol]

That and you know

It’s a base

Objectively the augmetics make them better

[dapper gyro]

? Having geneseed doesn't make you bulletproof...

[dusk patrol]

Yeah and being a marine doesn’t make you bolter proof

And yet some iron hands are

[dapper gyro]

Huh?

[dusk patrol]

Also easier to repair

[arctic talon]

The enhanced body lets them shove heavier duty stuff in

[dusk patrol]

Iron Fathers and other augmented iron hands are insanely durable often

[arctic talon]

Is the in universe explanation

[dusk patrol]

Casually surviving things that would kill most other marines

It noted that they often go whole campaigns without actually losing a marine

Just taking damage and repairing it

There’s a bit in one book where there’s guys fighting an Iron Father and they can’t actually hurt him enough either the bolters and weapons they have so they try to get anti tank weapons to deal with him

The augmetics also make them stronger, let them sync minds and fight more effectively, link with their vehicles and drive them better, and more exotic stuff like dilate time so they perceive each second as being a minute long.

And so on

[arctic talon]

See this is why we should bring thallax back

[shadow plover]

They should sync with some bitches instead

[dusk patrol]

They’ve achieved true male perfection

The lack of need for bitches

[opaque coyote]

I wonder if they can get like

Bisected

and still fight on

[dusk patrol]

It happens

There’s a bit in one book where one gets his entire torso torn up by a Nid Warrior and he just tells his commander he’s still “67% combat capable” and he keeps fighting and survives

Like he has a giant hole in his stomach.

They take marine resilience farther basically, often more redundant systems and organs.

[opaque coyote]

"Iron Father, please stop, you already have 4 hearts. You don't need mor-"

"MORE HEARTS."

[dusk patrol]

It’s noted that compared to most chapters they mean very top heavy with much much older marines

900 is a fairly common age for a lot of the older dudes that we see

[storm jungle]

yeah some Iron Fathers are literally MGR Boss Battle-tier threats most of the time lol

id post sundowner again but we used him enough already

[dusk patrol]

They don’t do banter well though

[storm jungle]

theres a reason I.H are in my honorable-mentions spot in my Astartes tier-list

[opaque coyote]

Again, if we ever get another Space Marine gam

e

[dusk patrol]

I just like them cause they’re not dressing up as anything other than what marines are, they’re monsters to kill monsters

And whoever else

[opaque coyote]

The main protagonist should be a CSM

Imagine fighting an Iron Father as a boss.

[storm jungle]

Titus is already that

but also tanks

If I did this everyone would think I have terrible taste lol

[storm jungle]

LOL

I mean its a perosnal tierlist

thats literally bound to happen with every user

stupid fucking cunts-

[dusk patrol]

Easy to paint

[storm jungle]

I REALLY need to get around to asking an artist friend of mine to filter-edit that Lewis Jones iron hand artwork

[rose thorn]

‘Ultramarines, Raven guard, word bearers (3 sub chapters that haven’t been mentioned for years)’

[rose thorn]

Is my like list

[dusk patrol]

I would enjoy that

[rose thorn]

Oh and white scars

[storm jungle]

Yeah its annoying because that cunt never posts his art on artstation

[storm jungle]

Yeah that one

yoink

[dusk patrol]

Yeah it’s annoying. I wish we got a better version

[rose thorn]

I’d put mantis warriors, despite how much I love them the fandom and fan lore is so absolute dog water

[storm jungle]

Honestly

your picks arent that bad

[arctic talon]

I like how the tech priest is hanging from the ceiling lol

[storm jungle]

id maybe say they are too "safe" but its good

[opaque coyote]

I love the guy clenching on a bar.

or arrow?

whatever it is

[dapper gyro]

Then at what point it is for one of them to even be a dread? if they can just repair themselves?

[opaque coyote]

To distract from the pain

[storm jungle]

its a stress biting-thing

[shadow plover]

Scythes of the Emperor have fans?

[dusk patrol]

Depends

[rose thorn]

Ultra marines are like, an unironically great chapter I just feel like people complain because they are poster boys

[storm jungle]

AGAIN emphasis on "I like their gimmicks or paintjob"

[rose thorn]

“Math marines”

[storm jungle]

for Scythes its DEFINITELY the paintjob for me

[dusk patrol]

They still have some organics, and being a dread is also like

An upgrade for many

[shadow plover]

Fair, the paint job rules

[dusk patrol]

A lot don’t have that level of augmetics either

[storm jungle]

I forgot were Scythes the ones with breeding-worlds

[shadow plover]

I played them in SM2 and was planning on painting a force of them

[arctic talon]

No

Death specters

[vagrant fox]

Always a big fan of Flesh Tearers, why would you need anything but ultraviolence

[arctic talon]

Scythes were chill with their human like

[storm jungle]

THESE FUCKING NAMES

[arctic talon]

[arctic talon]

Would you prefer Eugenic lords

[storm jungle]

aughhh-

[storm jungle]

I love Flesh Tearers but their fanbase is like diet-world eaters

aka fucking braindead annoying

"OMG SETH IS SO COOL HE SAID A RUDE THING"

what the fuck is this high school?

[vagrant fox]

I just love irrational marines is more my thing

[shadow plover]

Loving Minotaurs is a bit weird though...

[storm jungle]
