some days i wonder just how high the coders where when they made these bots

gray umbra
#

Its ok i encountered a npc stalker named vadim quack

#

Name generation is 👍

crystal forum
dusk patrol
#

Me, trying to find how the fuck the Northern tribes get enough protein in a “desolate wasteland” to be this fucking yoked

#

Is chaos just infinite whey?

queen laurel
#

And to be honest

#

Mammoth meat probably has crazy protein

crystal forum
dusk patrol
#

I think so

queen laurel

Realms of ruin is fine

arctic talon
#

Realms of Ruin suffers from them randomly making units unmicroable tbh

young pecan
#

Maybe big, dangerous, but greatly filling game

arctic talon
#

tbh what does the game eat

#

is the biggest question

young pecan
#

TRUE

vagrant fox
#

Other game

arctic talon
#

meat all the way down

#

lol

vagrant fox
#

A very inefficient ecosystem

young pecan
#

Aren't there still trees around?

#

Mammoths and such probably ate those

arctic talon
#

ngl the more southern norscans I totally get being that fuckin buff

#

but the more northern ones yeah idfk

vagrant fox
#

Gains from rule of cool, it's fine

dusk patrol
#

The point is it doesn’t make a ton of sense but it’s also like

sly ivy
dusk patrol
#

Literally just “chaos”

#

I think it’s outright said a lot wouldn’t survive without it

arctic talon
#

da juice

rose thorn
rose thorn
#

What would the classes be

#

Stormcast

#

Sylvaneth?

celest dome
#

Alliance from Order factions probably

rose thorn
#

Yee

#

And maybe a single death guy

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

I’d like a class for each faction tbh

#

I’d love to play an idoneth deepkin

celest dome
#

City
Kharadron
Stormcast

rose thorn
#

And then what will be the elf rep

celest dome
#

What elf rep clown_hadron

rose thorn
#

Maybe lumineth?

queen laurel
#

So pick from fire slayers

#

Aelfs

#

Daughters of cain

rose thorn
#

WAIT IS KHAINE A RIFF ON CAIN

queen laurel
#

Khaine

rose thorn
#

FROM THE BIBBLE

celest dome
#

If they want to have it be 'linked' to VT2/U5 (then making it Vt3)
Sylvaneth
Kharadron
Stormcast
Unknown Bretonnian faction
Night haunt ?

queen laurel
#

I'm just not going to correct myself because i'm lazy

tough haven
celest dome
#

Tbh I want some tide game, but in BF still

#

Or not set in warhammer at all

celest dome
#

Battle fantasy

rose thorn
#

Ah

#

A tide game in like

#

Starwars or something would be cool

celest dome
#

ye, Starwars could work

rose thorn
#

Like that one arena battle app game

#

The robot Jedi, the fallen storm troopers, something else

celest dome
#

Otherwise, Castlevania could be cool

rose thorn
#

Oh hell yeah

celest dome
rose thorn
#

Idk much about starwars imma be real so I’ll take your word

celest dome
#

Haven't followed in ages, but having it in the past let you have Jedi with guns

#

But ye
Castlevania
Dresden Files
Or some setting that FS would create

queen laurel
#

The ones in the ocean

celest dome
#

FS either making a Weird War setting (Each player character being a member of the allies);
Or being on a setting with multiple Avatars from different Mythological Pantheon vs an army from some Old One

queen laurel
#

The ones that like blood and stabbing

#

And highelfs that are even higher

celest dome
queen laurel
#

Also the wood elves

arctic talon
#

Wood elves(literal)

#

somehow even more xenophobic

queen laurel
#

Drycha

arctic talon
#

that was as a distraction

#

it got out of hand

queen laurel
#

Ah yes the perfect distraction

#

Bring back one of the most dangerous members of the faction in the world that was

arctic talon
#

Hey it worked great

#

aside from the part

sly ivy
arctic talon
#

where she started commiting mass murder

#

towards literally everyone else once she ran out of Death and Skaven to kill

rose thorn
#

You got a warrior chamber stormcast, vanguard chamber, and ruination chamber?

#

Then for kharadron uh

#

Codewrite, engineer, and something else

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

True

queen laurel
#

They can get characters from three pantheons

#

Death order and destruction

rose thorn
#

An ogor would be fun

#

For morktide

#

Or they could so soultide

#

And do death

arctic talon
#

During the necroquake

#

Lol

queen laurel
#

Yeah that can work

#

Yeah soulbound opens up a lot of tide possibilities

celest dome
#

Lizardtide or Dreadtide in BF
AoS getting some real Gold age RTS is what I'd like to see.
And maybe some Rpg game

arctic talon
#

God

rose thorn
#

I’d kill for a AOS rpg

arctic talon
#

I’d kill for a good AoS RTS

queen laurel
#

I would genocide an entire world for a good AOS rts

#

Or rpg

rose thorn
#

Soul bound is a really good ttrpg tho

celest dome
#

A Divinity OS 2 like Rpg uwugryn

rose thorn
#

Oooo yee

sly ivy
#

Omg skinktide

rose thorn
#

What would the player classes be

sly ivy
#

I would feel bad killing the little guys

crisp heath
#

i NEED sororitastide

rose thorn
#

Skinktide, idonethtide

celest dome
arctic talon
#

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD

rose thorn
#

Uh

queen laurel
sly ivy
#

Btw weekly reminder Darktide is really good now everyone go play it.

#

Wait

sly ivy
#

This is the Darktide discord not the 40K one

arctic talon
sly ivy
#

Lmao

queen laurel
sly ivy
#

Never mind

arctic talon

As long as you’re fine with a little jank

rose thorn

sly ivy

Was surprised by you saying 3 KEKW_ogryn

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

“500 classes” oh cool how many of them are good/usable

arctic talon
queen laurel
#

Hmm

arctic talon
queen laurel
#

Ok

celest dome
rose thorn
arctic talon
#

How many feats are there in pf2e

#

How many are viable combos per class

rose thorn
#

Archetypes?

arctic talon
arctic talon
queen laurel
arctic talon
#

They’re classes to me

rose thorn
#

Lmao

arctic talon
#

And they can take it from my cold dead hands

rose thorn
#

They are like universal subclasses which is good for flavors or uber min maxing

arctic talon
#

I am a firm believer of pathfinder 1e being the better system mostly

#

Though I do like some stuff in 2e

rose thorn
#

I like the juggler archetype :3

arctic talon
#

In any case at the end of the day it’s personal taste lol

#

I bet you there’s a group of people out there who really like dnd 4e

Or the Star Wars TTRPG’s 2e

queen laurel
#

So just an order based tide game for aos is already a lot of choices

rose thorn
queen laurel
#

This is not even including the two other pantheons being death and destruction

rose thorn
#

Chaos needs soulbound support tbh

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Yay

queen laurel
#

But unlike the other three

#

You are completely stuck as evil

arctic talon
#

Whenever it releases

#

Sometime this century

queen laurel
celest dome
queen laurel
#

A tide game based in order is already stacked

celest dome
#

I mean, tide game doesn't need a lot of character to build upon

queen laurel
#

I am at least glad that when they decide to do an aos tide game

#

They have plenty of options

celest dome
#

Still would prefer Dreadtide with a group of Grand Alliance character

#

Could also base it on Cursed City

queen laurel
celest dome
#

It'll probably be an Ork tide game that will happen rather than Orc or Orruks tbh

queen laurel
#

Out of the three settings

rose thorn
#

I would die for cursedtide

#

Has so much potential

#

Also there was white dwarf add ons for cursed city

#

So there’s also vampire lord enemies, black guard, wolves

#

And lore wise there is a khrone cult

#

So you can fight khorne stuff

#

And player wise there is storm casts, necromancer

#

Dark oath

#

Also you get a bunch more cursed city characters to fight

#

Flesh eaters

#

Skaven?!

#

Night haunt

celest dome
#

If they do their own IP, I think having a tide game set on Lovercraft could work quite well, like you take multiple cults, you make them look mutated like they've nicely done here, you add some of the monsters that are tied to the Gods and such.

#

And voila

#

As for the player character, the nicest thing would be to have it be avatars to different Pantheon, where the tree is basically pledging to differnt god to gain different gifts and ability

humble shoal
#

Or you do it like secret world did it

celest dome
#

Which is

humble shoal
#

Old mmo

#

They had different factions related to the occult world (in their case templars, illuminati, and the drafon)

potent orchid
#

Man, that game was so cool

humble shoal
#

Yeah its completely free now from what I understand

potent orchid
#

Are all of the mini ARGs still accessible though? I remember when I played it yearsss ago some of the webpages you needed to visit for quests were no longer available

humble shoal
#

Probably not

#

Sadly

vagrant fox
#

Most likely not, last time I played there was nothing of the sort involved

humble shoal
potent orchid
#

That was the coolest part about that game tbh

humble shoal
#

Yeah

vagrant fox
#

Yea

potent orchid

It did a lot to immerse you in the whole world conspiracy schtick

It depends.

Some fail, some succeed, its multiple outcomes considering theres tons of factors at play

the problem is we dont hear about any successful ones that arent GSC/Chaos related because they dont represent tabletop factions

Not that it’s bad

Canadians regularly enjoy committing warcrimes it's fine

How do they stop surviving guardsman from talking about chaos when they rejoin society? Or do they just eat a bolter round

Space Wolf are all about Bromance and the SoB are all about Celestine.

#

I mean yeah

#

But not any more then Idira or Argenta

#

She just grew up in a cult the same way Argenta did

#

She’s just a different flavor of insane

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

It is

paper haven
#

Have you lot been spending too much time in Zealot chat again?

arctic talon
#

I think it’s funny she ends up having one of the most well adjusted relationships

#

Out of all the companions if you get her out of her cult mindset

#

Emphasis on If

#

Otherwise it’s not that at all lmao

queen laurel
#

I would say cassia is second

#

But no she is not

arctic talon
#

Cassia, Heinrix and Kibellah

#

Are all normal

#

Ish

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Heinrix and Kibellah get most normal relationship award

queen laurel
#

jae

arctic talon
#

But yeah she can end up in a decent relationship

#

She just ends up dying horribly young

paper haven
#

Sort of wish that Argenta was romancible

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Kibellah always has a kind of shit time if Jae is alive and she isn’t romanced

queen laurel
#

What the f*** do you mean i saved your group and your entire business

#

And you get taken out like

#

Nothing

arctic talon
#

Yeah Jae’s ending is like

#

Literally always depressing in some manner lol

queen laurel
#

I literally made everything in my power to change you and you get taken out by like what

#

Something f****** random

arctic talon
queen laurel
arctic talon
#

No

#

She just becomes a massive crime lord

queen laurel
#

Something an iconoclast like me wouldn't like

arctic talon
#

Also Jae is funnily enough really pious

#

She’s like the second or third most pious party member

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

She’s second to Argenta or third to Kibellah

queen laurel
#

I'm pretty sure she is an iconaclast right

arctic talon
#

She is

#

Yeah

#

But that doesn’t mean she isn’t hugely religious

queen laurel
plush mason
#

ngl its wild how good the void shadows dlc was

#

the 2nd one is gona have quite the bar to meet/pass

arctic talon
#

It’s about the imperial tithe

plush mason
#

and the arbitus iirc

#

mainly on there part in the tithe and ensuring it is paid

#

if the comp is iconoclast i think they could make some really interesting stories with that

queen laurel
plush mason
#

oh yeah that too

#

but they would need to rework the heretic path to really make it great

#

which if they do i would love it

languid meadow
storm jungle
#

Nah its the wobbly outer distortion effect of the explosions around it

opaque coyote
#

By blowing up a wall

#

Shooting 3 heretics

#

Almost shooting you in a religious filled craze

#

And then not apologizing

#

And insisting on going ahead for the Emperor

#

And then because it's a CRPG, misses several times because I assume Sister of Battle Training for the schola is 90% prayer and propaganda

#

And 10% actual combat skills

#

I love her

#

Also I have played Fallout NV for hundreds of hours

#

And I just learned this part

#

I always just punched them

sly ivy
#

Argenta best girl

#

Also like you’re always just waiting for her turn bc the best solution to every 40K problem is faith and a bolter.

sly ivy
#

She is the Way. He is the Truth and the Light.

paper haven
#

I'm not asking to marry her just.
y'know

sly ivy
#

Just meditate with her on His grace and goodness. Yes.

opaque coyote
#

Like

#

At all

#

Which is sad considering

#

That even in a Grimdark future, in the worst regime of mankind

#

The religious order is still more progressive than some of ours

#

A religious order based on hatred and martyrdom brw

arctic talon
#

Tbh

sly ivy
arctic talon
#

This is the reformed version lol

#

That’s less extreme and violent

sly ivy
#

The Emperor’s work is never done

arctic talon
#

We have the “moderate” version of the imperial creed

#

Gamers when they can’t fuck a girl in a game and instead just have to be her friend

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

Argenta only ends up your friend in one path tbh

queen laurel
#

Yeah and literally you make her become a repenta

arctic talon
#

Other one she goes insane with faith and the other one she becomes a repentia

sly ivy
#

Humans be humaning

queen laurel
queen laurel
#

Oh now i have to do that

sly ivy
#

This rpg has so much content goddamn

arctic talon
#

She has 3 internal flags

#

Almost every semi important convo you have with her increments it

#

Fire, faith, humility

#

Faith = religious psycho^3
Humility = repentia
Fire = actually somewhat normal human being but still incredibly religious

sly ivy
#

The perfect human

#

Incredible

arctic talon
#

Lol

sly ivy
#

Unfathomably based

arctic talon
#

Argenta and Idira becoming friends is the funniest shit ever

#

Because to get the flags for it they’d have to have tried to murder each other 3 different times

sly ivy
#

I always dump idira bc I play psyker but then I kind of miss her

arctic talon
queen laurel

#

Any psyker that stupid doesn’t deserve to live that long

I gotta remember the Commorragh trigger for next play through

#

There’s so much shit in comorroagh

#

I’m probably gonna wait for the Arbites dlc

arctic talon
#

Imo there’s very little point in bringing Pasqual to it imo

dusk patrol
#

So I can bring him and Kibella

arctic talon
#

They can have trauma together

queen laurel
#

Because you can find secret weapons and stuff

#

And incredibly good gear

arctic talon
#

BG3 is way more popular

#

And the most complex thing doesn’t have a good guide lol

dusk patrol
#

BG3 is also way less complex

arctic talon
#

Yeah that also

#

There’s a lot less break points

#

But I’m just saying the most complex system in bg3 doesn’t even have a guide

dusk patrol
#

Mfers be making guides to the different subclasses like it matters smh

arctic talon
#

Which is Gale’s “I’m going to become a God” meter

queen laurel
#

Yeah but with games like rogue trader a guide is definitely going to be helpful

dusk patrol
#

I blame these new gamers

queen laurel
#

Like zog me man some of the things i need to do is so

#

Bloody f****** specific

Back in my day we’d have a guide by now

Well yeah but what can i do

arctic talon
#

Or rather some bystanders

queen laurel
#

This is warhammer 40k

arctic talon
#

Best thing is to make Pasqual kill one of Jae’s friends

#

And then Jae kills Abel

#

Or you let Pasqual kill Ulfar and Yirlet

#

Actually Pasqual just causes issues lmao

queen laurel
#

He seems to have gotten better in that regard

"I meant actual dudes. I need imperial guard reinforcements and artillery"

Or he goes insane and goes traitor and dies

Or he becomes a magos malagra and he kills Jae’s friend and a lot of other people

plush mason

i never had that happen

arctic talon
#

Oh

#

Do you get the brass whisper one?

plush mason

i had him stay dogmatic and shut down the thing at the end of his quest

wild question: can a xeno become a rogue trader somehow?

median star
#

yea

queen laurel
plush mason
#

could a rogue trader name a xeno their successor?

median star
#

probably not

plush mason
#

their authority is without question in the frontier so who would stop them?

barren prawn
#

youd have to be an imperial citizen to be sanctioned to be a rogue trader

queen laurel
median star
plush mason
#

true

plush mason
median star
#

theyd go hmm thats weird whys an aeldari here idk kill under any circumstances but when its them in an entourage you have the actual rogue trader saying no sir i need them and unless its an inquisitor its just toughshit on what they think and even then depending on the trader and inquisitor still may be tough shit

spring cairn
#

i mean there's also no precedent for this being ever attempted

plush mason
#

true

#

and frankly it could easily happen just because of the size of the administorim

#

they wouldnt even see the report for a few centuries

spring cairn
#

no becaue rogue traders are also speciest

azure knoll
plush mason
#

they both have unlimited authority so its just a pure soft power system

spring cairn
#

they wouldn't give their warrant of trade passed thru their family for generations to a random non-human

queen laurel
azure knoll
#

due to the only thing the inquisitor having being reputation with people who could stop the trader and nothing much to touch the trader

median star
queen laurel
#

the imperium is if anything incredibly xenophobic

plush mason
azure knoll
spring cairn
#

if you were

azure knoll
#

if i wouldn't be able to make a half-eldar, that is, because i'm fairly certain that hasn't been explored much in non-retconned lore

queen laurel
median star
spring cairn
#

he kept crying for no reasons that was either this or shaking it

plush mason
#

they are an eldar child in imperium space, they have a death warrant no matter what

median star
#

well now theyre high priority

plush mason
#

if anything the rogue trader's protection is the only thing keeping them alive

median star
plush mason
#

ofc

#

thats the way it is for all subjects of a rogue trader

#

you live so long as you are usefull/tolerated to do so

median star
#

not necessarily you could just be told to fuck off and left on a planet if the trader wasnt spiteful

azure knoll
#

really should give rogue trader a serious solid try because i quit right after the tutorial

plush mason
#

the only person that can gainsay the lord captain is the god emperor himself, so may he have mercy on your soul if you piss off the rogue trader

median star

chapter masters aswell big maybe tho i think inquisition is still a tier above them but i dont think any of them would have the balls to try against a chapter master

plush mason
#

oh the inqusition has killed off whole chapters many times

arctic talon
#

The imperium is a lot of soft power

plush mason
#

yup

arctic talon
#

Hard hierarchies almost never apply on a wider scale

plush mason
#

and politically most space marines dont have much power

arctic talon
#

Yeah marines don’t involve themselves with politics

#

99% of the time

plush mason
#

yup

#

so as important as they are on the battlefield in the power structure of the imperium they are fairly small fish

#

after all the high lords can just order more be made if they need too

arctic talon
#

Marines soft power is the might makes right flavor

#

And tradition/longevity

#

Rather then actually having a power base

median star
#

they also have control over their own legion the brazen bulls or minotaurs one of the two they both exist idk which one they control tho

plush mason
#

minotaurs

#

the high lords' executioners

#

and space spartans

median star
#

does the inquisition also have control over their own or am i making shit up

plush mason
#

they have the deathwatch

arctic talon
#

Red scorps and crimson hunters

#

Both are known to work with the inqusition

#

Deathwatch aren’t directly under the inqusition either

#

But they are def tied to it

median star
plush mason
#

the grey knights too kinda though the inquisition can only make requests of them iirc

arctic talon
#

Wait not crimson hunters

#

Ugh

plush mason
arctic talon
#

I’m forgetting the chapter name

plush mason
#

like holy hell

arctic talon
plush mason
#

"first among equals" seems to be the common thread with the inquisition

arctic talon
#

Red hunters are the other chapter

#

And they seem to just be an extension of the inquisitions big 3 ordis

plush mason
#

ofc the fact they have no direct control is what makes them so powerful as strange as it is to think about

arctic talon
#

Unknown founding + never seen without inqusition or inqusitors snooping around

also didnt the iron hands have a pretty sizeable traitor thing go down after the hh

how many civil wars has the imperium had?

or is that number a bit to high to count lol

dapper gyro
# crisp heath that´s pretty cool to know actually

The Ar is the element name for silver on the periodic table, because it stands for Argent. In French, argent means money, which the church back in the day saw it as corruption (yet they wanted to hoard it 😑 ).

#

Similarly, Au is the old writing of Or, French for gold. Because "Au" also means "at"... so they changed the word.

Question please, I do know that Warhammer and Warhammer 40k are in different universes but I can see the similarities between the spawns of Nurgle from both Warhammer and 40k, can anyone confirm that the both universes are using the same monsters in both universes?

arctic talon
#

The only setting locked Daemons are the Slaanesh twins

#

who exist only in AoS

hallow saddle
#

honestly as time goes on I can see them separating them more

#

for copyright and trademark and legal reasons etc

#

but yer atm lots of the daemons are shared between the settings. in fantasy a long time ago one of the random mutations on your chaos daemon was a plasma pistol in the fantasy setting

#

It's basically all from the Realm of Chaos books from the late 80s

#

2 books that were about chaos in both fantasy & 40k

#

If u like chaos they are still worth reading

rose thorn
#

They are like 2 different settings

whole ruin
#

Thank you for the information! 🙂

opaque coyote
#

Similar to how Daemons are the shards of the Chaos Gods

rose thorn
#

ye, except slaanehs is currently chained in gag between the realms of light and darkness </3

opaque coyote
#

While the "40k" part is being the shithead that they always are

sly ivy
#

So the warp/realm of chaos connects all of the universes inc. 40k and AoS

#

And daemons are parts of the warp herniated into the physical universe.

crisp heath
#

that is news to me

#

so there´s slaanesh 1 and slaanesh 2?

sly ivy
#

No there's only Slaanesh

#

Only one warp, multiple universes.

#

Hang on

crisp heath
#

oookay

#

that´s strange

#

not sure if it makes sense

sly ivy
#

White Dwarf 487, "Ask Grombrindal" section, which is written by some of the head lorekeepers at GW

crisp heath
#

haha

#

i wanna have "Lorekeeper" in my CV one day

sly ivy
#

I love that GW exists tbh what an incredible nerd talent sink

#

but of course so is e.g. spacex

#

It is the time of the nerd

rocky gale
#

Yea Warp is full of weird timey whimey stuff

crisp heath
#

how do you get employed by GW to write lore even?

rocky gale
#

Like it's not bound by linear time, so while the Eldar Empire ended with the Birth of Slaanesh, Slaanesh always existed.

arctic talon
sly ivy
#

I found it

arctic talon
#

The issue is AoS/whfb doesn’t have the warp

sly ivy
#

It does

#

They just call it the realm of chaos.

arctic talon
#

AoS def does not have the warp

sly ivy
#

It does

#

Just called realm of chaos

arctic talon
#

The realms of chaos in AoS are much more physical then the warp

sly ivy
#

As noted in snippet above

#

They are literally the warp. In the newer sourcebooks esp they're described in the exact same way. Realm of souls and emotion.

#

AoS universe is weird because it might itself exist within the warp, but in a sort of webway-like bubble.

arctic talon
#

For AoS

#

Just asking

arctic talon
#

They’re seperate universes from 40k imo

sly ivy
#

I mean possibly literally in the webway given that we are given extremely obvious hints that the Old Ones created the realms.

AoS 3 main rulebook realm of chaos section (or is it chaos gods section)

rocky gale
#

Personally I think connecting them is dumb and lessens both

arctic talon
#

I find connecting the two boring

sly ivy
#

I don't have AoS 4 rulebook unfortunately

#

Yeah I mean they should be connected only vaguely

#

I like the one-warp and that's it

#

I mean WHFB had cutesy stuff like the Dark Shadows campaign

#

Where there was a lot of Old One er stuff on Albion and you could get artifacts that were literally 40k wargear haha

#

But it's silly like if there are infinite realities then why would AoS/WHFB/40k bleed into each other so often vs all of the myriad others

rocky gale
#

Sure old jokes and easter eggs is one thing but straight up saying "The 40k Eldar made Slaanesh in both universes and AoS takes place in the Webway" is just needlessly reductive and is basically saying AoS is a side project

sly ivy
#

<<AoS is kind of a side project>> ok ok but really I like AoS

#

Still at least the Slaanesh bit is word of god stated

rocky gale
#

Eh everything is canon until it isn't

sly ivy
#

This is also made clear in the old Realm of Chaos books

#

yeah but this has been consistent since the early 90s at least

#

Never contradicted and reinforced repeatedly.

rocky gale
#

and I'm consistenly ignoring it

shadow plover
#

Isn't Slaanesh imprisoned in AoS at the moment

AoS really really needs some central really good book series.

arctic talon
#

It has plenty of good individual books

sly ivy
#

Needs an Eisenhorn, Gaunt's Ghosts, etc.

arctic talon
#

Which I’m fine with

sly ivy
#

It does.

rocky gale
#

Ehhh

#

AoS doesn't need a Horus Heresy

sly ivy
#

Dark Harvest personal fave.

shadow plover
#

Are the Gotrek books as good as the WFB ones

rocky gale
#

Or a Dawn of Fire

sly ivy
#

No not a HH

#

Oh right there is Gotrek

arctic talon
#

Def not a Horus heresy

sly ivy
#

... responses are gonna vary

shadow plover
sly ivy
#

But I will say that Felix is missed. The pre-AoS Gotrek books were kind of Felix books. Like Felix is this deeply flawed, v relatable human and Gotrek is kind of a force of nature.

#

The AoS Gotrek books are about Gotrek more or less.

shadow plover
#

Fair

arctic talon
#

Turns out

#

Gotrek isn’t the best on his own

sly ivy
#

If you go back and read the WHFB G&F books so much of it is about like Felix's jealousy or his angst or his romantic misadventures

#

You spend a lot of it in Felix's head.

rocky gale
#

Doesn't each book basically pair him with a new temporary companion?

sly ivy
#

Yes and they kind of fall flat.

shadow plover
#

just finished the last G&F book a month or so back

sly ivy
#

You need to develop the relationship

#

Like Maleneth is with us for a while and she's fun I guess but like

shadow plover
#

might move on to the Gotrek books at some point

sly ivy
#

She is a femme fatale dark elf

#

Gotrek is already an extreme cartoonish slayer character

#

He needs a straight man/woman

#

As a foil

#

Not another xtreme abhuman.

#

Jordain was an ok nu Felix for a minute then ||he got killed off||

#

But he was also a prince. Like part of Felix's appeal is that he's sort of an upper middle class rando and he has a strained relationship with his family plus a sort of uncomfortable awk thing where he comes off as an annoying snooty university guy to commoners and as a pathetic poor grad student to nobles.

#

He's sort of vaguely a fuck up and he's in the whole Gotrek situation because he got in trouble for doing illegal stuff during a silly protest, got extremely drunk, and pledged to be Gotrek's little sidekick b/c he'd pretty much ruined his career prospects.

shadow plover
#

true but after a while he's pretty much a multi year veteran with massive amount of experience and he did stay with Gortek for more reasons than just the oath he made drunk

sly ivy
#

Yes this is all true.

shadow plover
#

and by the end he was pretty much a renowned hero of the empire

sly ivy
#

Also also true but people still shit talk him and his books about himself

#

Anyway yeah Gotrek is like....... not supposed to be relatable. We're supposed to be like "o wauw!" when, once every three books, he says something nice or indicates that he cares about someone.

#

Maybe unpopular opinion but you read G&F for Felix.

#

And there could absolutely be a new Felix but he/she has to be a normalish person.

#

At least to start out

#

And the originals btw also did the companion of the week thing; they were just ancillary companions to G&F

#

I'm supposed to be answering work e-mails why am I doing this

shadow plover
#

yeah was about to say all the companions around the duo were amazing characters all, too

sly ivy
#

Snorri omfg

#

Great character

#

Max? Ulrika?

#

I mean they were regulars

#

But there are also also the temporary ones.

crisp heath
#

i read them when i was like 16, good times

sly ivy
#

Hahahaha excellent.

crisp heath
#

i don´t know what she was like in the original books but those books were bretty good i thought

sly ivy
#

She was pretty great in the originals.

#

She starts off mortal and is obviously dating down w/ Felix.

#

But at the same time she feels insecure b/c Felix has all this university education

#

So they annoy each other in a very um

#

Well it reads as very natural haha.

crisp heath
sly ivy
#

I think that stems from the foundation laid by... King, was it, who started writing her? Yeah he has a fine touch. I wonder whether he has daughters haha.

#

No  — two sons 🤷‍♂️

shadow plover
#

Yeah King wrote all the original G&F books where she was introduced and turned

#

didn't actually know she had a dedicated run of novels too

like she just becomes evil for some reason and just gets staked, the disconnect between the authors is really obvious

tho Felix/Gotrek's ending at least makes up for it 😔

Yeaaaah the twist of knowing what Snorri did was fucked

And trippy dreamlike is it happening or isn’t it happening warp/chaos/reality ripping stuff at the end of Slayer.

storm jungle
#

Yeah but it essentially is

#

because during the End Times all the gods were physically taking part in the story

#

Grimnir fucking over Gotrek tho was some wild shit

sly ivy

Good series. Emotional anchor lost somewhat in aos version

Its good but its just not the same without Felix
