For example if they are like a snake bite war clan which are famous for breeding some of the best squigs and grots
They would use them
If it's a runt herd that is proud of his squigs they would use that

Not gonna lie
I LOVE how theres absolutely zero online presence for that symbol
i actually even had my friend ask a pal of hers as Cubicle 7 and they confirmed it afterwards lmao
i was like "welp too late for that but thanks"

There is now exactly 1 online presence for it, thanks to ur work
crystal forum
why is munitorum so rarely depicted
shadow plover
It wasn't much of a stretch to connect it to what it was even without any concrete info prior to getting it
was it not SM2 ammo crates, not DT
storm jungle
Yeah everyone said it was munitorum
i was like uh
"No I NEED the source"
it was annoying because there is NO proper png of that symbol which is super funny

main 3 writers, i remember some people going mad because the Ashley lady was trans but thats about it

There definitely some lines and bits in that game which are if anything overly ambitious with the background information you need to get what it means
So they definitely had some people who knew their stuff.
The line about Calth in particular is kinda overly complicated to explain because I don’t think even a lot of fans know that Primaris were drawn from aspirants from that era that were frozen.
soft thunder
Calth was a nice detail and so was Chairon asking about if titus was on vigilus w/ calgar
dusk patrol
Yeah there’s some nice little lines here and there which are cool details
Cadians purple eyes
Little stuff
soft thunder
no ungudly number of obscure references and vague niche nonsense tho
been playing a lot of SM2 lately, good game, just not much lore aside from the planets for me to chew on
dusk patrol
They haven’t added it yet
soft thunder
unless they are adding more to it. Lots of datamining has been done
like the biovore etc has been known for a while among other things
dusk patrol
Yeah
It and the Trygon
It’s meant to be an introduction game largely, nothing in it mostly is stuff you can read elsewhere for now
soft thunder
ya and it does it well 
dusk patrol
Darktide is similar, it’s got some stuff like the traitor guard but it’s nothing crazy new
They’re good introductions to the setting though
dusky scroll
forgive me for this dumb question, it is said Imperium rules a million world. Is the number from before cadia blew up or after? Because afaik, the Cadia explosion cut off half the Imperium.
shadow plover
the worlds behind the rift are still imperial worlds
storm jungle
forgive me for this dumb question, it is said Imperium rules a million world. Is...
the "million worlds" thing is mostly a rough estimate, its not going to drop unless its really stated as so.
The Imperium loses and gains new worlds "daily" essentially
dusk patrol
They outright say no one knows how many they really control
Same for guardsmen and all that it’s so fluid and constantly changing
Information can’t travel that fast
That being said it’s probably lower now
storm jungle
The million worlds thing is still constantly repeated but yeah again rough estimate
dusk patrol
Because the rift and 13th BC
shadow plover
and often said just "at least a million"
storm jungle
yeah that
shadow plover
no exact numbers
storm jungle
its mostly just all the "important enough" worlds
since in reality the milky way has like 100-200 billion planets
soft thunder
forgive me for this dumb question, it is said Imperium rules a million world. Is...
It’s offhandedly mentioned by most citizens. It’s kinda just propaganda and sounds good to the adults and children of the Imperium. Ppl say it all over the place.
storm jungle
Even in Dorktide yeah, the zealots always repeat the "million" line, same with most books.
dusky scroll
the worlds behind the rift are still imperial worlds
as far as I know they are functionally not. Interstellar travel is extremely difficult. Making them isolated pockets of humanity, vulnerable to chaos, tyranid, and xeno threats. They cannot provide or receive resources from Imperium. No taxation, no recruitment, no reinforcement. If a planet decides to no longer be loyal to Imperium, no one to stop it.
storm jungle
It depends.
Nothing stops them from being Imperial worlds unless the rulership of the planet literally goes "we arent with you anymore".
shadow plover
additionally there are still ruling elements on that side of the rift
storm jungle
What you said basically applies to planets on the "good" side of the Rift as well.

Its just a loose number
remember no writer in this setting can count
just go with it
dusk patrol
The point is it’s enough where they won’t matter if they lose some
storm jungle
Like this is the same universe where they try to make huge battles bigger than some of the world wars we had have lower bodycounts
dont think about it too much, these people cant math
(not that i blame them math is boring)
dusky scroll
it is cut off of the main body but it's not entirely on it's own
wdym?
soft thunder
There is a world where they store bullets. There are so many bullets that the planet’s crust is deforming and sinking. I forgot my point. Take what you will from the absurd statement.
storm jungle
Lmfao yeah
storm jungle

They still get imperial support from other imp factions stuck on that side of the Rift.
Some worlds are completely defenceless some are not, its kinda the same as the other side of the rift.

without reliable interstellar travel? (reliability being of 40k standard)
dusk patrol
Some areas are much better than others, but the main issue is travel and communications
There’s some ways around that
But it’s much harder
storm jungle
without reliable interstellar travel? (reliability being of 40k standard)
Warp travel works on the whims of the plot usually so while its "dangerous" most can still travel relatively "fine" on that side of the Rift.
Aciddents and uh total ship destruction is just gonna be a bit higher up because well, yeah astronomicon blinding and all that 💀
dusk patrol
They’re severely slowed down and have to make short jumps and can’t communicate well, a big thing Dante and the Lion are doing is just reconnecting with worlds
storm jungle
If only
dusk patrol
Mephiston is able to speed up travel a bit and the Lions Forestwalking helps him keep in contact with a lot of different groups but it’s still pretty fucked
dusky scroll
So... there are minimal communication/transport between two sides of the rift but within the dark side, the communication/logistics is more or less ongoing (with slightly higher casualty rate)?
arctic talon

And they’re heavily contested

Basically any sort of logistical issue you can think of exists over there just on steroids.
And a ton of paranormal interference etc
dusk patrol
Also everyone is going for your balls now
storm jungle
like "realistically" Nihilus is a lost cause
but its gonna get liberated at some point prob
dusk patrol
And Chaos doesn’t have these issues as much if at all
storm jungle
we cant really just delete half the imperium

Reading about the calixis sector in old Dark Heresy books has me thinking that whole area is just cooked. Can’t be be any better now

I like Huron so id let that pass
storm jungle
They wont
arctic talon
but it would be funny if it somehow escalates further
storm jungle
It will just be offhandedly mentioned
arctic talon
Its pretty much resolved isn't it?
storm jungle
the general "rule" with warzones/battle rulebook game areas is usually like
Conflict either is resolved in the entire event and will now be mentioned offhandedly
It is left in limbo and will be returned to eventually
arctic talon
wait no its Vigilus that is
storm jungle
its kinda why like uh
people expect for example an Warzone Armageddon thing
"ongoing" event zones usually work better as GW hips and hops between them, so it makes sense
also rip Metallica
storm jungle
LOL
I legit felt bad ngl
its a great example of why GW usually doesnt ever mess with hard-canon concrete locations
at least its still there... kinda
dusky scroll
Umm... so basically losing a that fat chunk of the Imperium to dark side didn't put a dent overall scheme of things in the Imperium?
dusky scroll
Oh for fucks sake! This universe is a mobius strip of headaches!
storm jungle
literally all the shit we said comes from dozens of offhanded mentions form books/rulebooks because GW just doesnt properly explore it as an area in the lore atm.
Its kinda enough to be satisfied but most people actually want to see whats properly happening over there.
dusk patrol
"people care about that planet?"
Yeah cause they’re cool and they successfully defended back to back against insane odds and they look sharp
arctic talon
its a great example of why GW usually doesnt ever mess with hard-canon concrete ...

It does make it funny when you add the context of Mordian being defended twice against completely bonkers odds.

you can hear the Ranger Alpha say "On my way"

Actual question though. Are there any Tech Priests/Magos/etc. that are into like

idk watching sports
arctic talon

regular hobbies
they are still human
opaque coyote
there's one that likes painting

so just like humans they will have many hobbies
there was like i read that likes collecting artifacts and stuff
dusk patrol
they are still human
Not if they can help it!
But yeah we just don't tend to see the more mundane ones.
Some literally just study flowers.
opaque coyote
Some literally just study flowers.
For me it's just kinda weird imagining a tech priest just studying botany
dusk patrol
They do a lot of more boring stuff.
opaque coyote
Probably because most depictions of them don't look or act human.
Which is the point tbf
dusk patrol
There's probably some who devote their lives to things like making nicer chairs or utensils and how to produce them better.
opaque coyote
But I legitmately have a hard time imagining Magos "Gill Bates" or some shit doing something ordinary instead of turning some poor menial into a servitor.
opaque coyote
There's probably some who devote their lives to things like making nicer chairs ...
A Tech Priest that's just
really into carpentry.

these two movies legit made me scared for awhile lmao
Im glad i tested myself in the mirror to know that I indeed dont have a creepy smile because holy shit
winter vessel
I was scared of my bedroom door being left open at night because of Smile 2’s trailer for a whole week
storm jungle
YEP
Fucking hell
theres an awful scene for apartment of the main character for Smile 2 and its just auergghghghgh
Horror movies usually dont creep me out so i hated it lmao
winter vessel
I appreciate horror films for the “suspense” buildup.
The jump scare market is just over saturated
small grail
now i will do the unthinkable
storm jungle
Yeah like i still can barely watch these movies aside from my first viewing of them.
I still hate this lady

For a whole week I repeated “Doomslayer’s gonna kill ‘em, Doomslayer’s gonna kill ‘em” to fall asleep just so I could stop thinking about the movie
storm jungle
LOL
Yeah i think it makes it bad because while the threat is a "monster" it uses humans
summer mural
oh its like cocaine
storm jungle
aka you know, the most dangerous thing, something two-legged as campers tend to say
storm jungle
oh its like cocaine
Basically uh
it goes from people to people driving them insane over the course of a week
then eventually kills them and goes "inside" them after making the last perosn it drove insane commit suicide and have a witness
its a metaphor for trauma but also how the monster itself feeds from it
winter vessel
And then there’s that whole “open your mouth, I’m moving in”
summer mural
does chaos get unique chaos armaments in place of some of the imperium ones, like do they have psycannons and omnissiah axe type equivalents
summer mural
so thats where the slaanesh marines put their spikes
storm jungle
yallah illallah
storm jungle
LOL
summer mural
chaos titans seem awesome though
storm jungle
they are like loyalist titans, but spikey, very cool
summer mural
like even more fucking unchained and destructive than imperium titans
winter vessel
If a salamander and a BT both fight the black legion and the green boy punches his Battle-Cousin
Salamander In Chris Tucker’s voice: “ALL Y’ALL LOOK ALIKE”
summer mural
I wonder if an emperor class titan corrupted by khorne can just start sprinting like an interceptor
also how do they drop titans on the battlefield, do they teleport em
or just hang em by tiny ropes from a gunship
storm jungle
they drop em in big deployment boxes
summer mural
who carries the boxes
winter vessel
Amazon drones
summer mural
or they literally drop em from space
storm jungle
hauler ships, carriers, etc
storm jungle

I bet chaos titans get to come in through a giant warp portal
storm jungle
summer mural

sly ivy
Sisters my beloved I need more impoorium armies with their level of gothic drip

sly ivy
The Strange Demise of Titus Endor is so good
summer mural

dusk patrol
Kinda wild how consistent it is when it’s 15 books long
sly ivy
Genuinely tore me up
dusk patrol
And how fast he was cranking them out in the early 2000s
dusk patrol
The Strange Demise of Titus Endor is so good

so even among the most techy marines and chapters why dont we ever see double eye bionics wouldnt that in theory be better or do they exist and iv just not seen them
storm jungle
Eternal post the night-vision eye Ironhand
storm jungle

But also basically Space Marines get bionics as either
- Replacement for lost bodypart
- Upgrade themselves due to some Chapter creed/request
dusk patrol
There’s others too
summer mural
ironhands doing shit 
dusk patrol
Besides Techmarines and Iron Hands/Successors few chapters are big on bionics
Or take advantage of them properly
Granted part of that is IH get the premium stuff they both make and source form the ad mech but

There’s nothing in it he just does a really bad ventriloquist act where you can see his lips move but no one has the heart to tell him it sucks
summer mural
the blade is actively worse than wielding a nemesis force weapon, but apparently crowe has to keep it instead of locking it up or throwing it away because that daemon caused so much chaos the last time it didnt have a warden and they dunno how to destroy or purify it either , seems like a lot of trouble
storm jungle
the fact that this book ended up in a random charity shop somehow was funny

Last we saw he fell into a reactor with the Beast
And didn’t show up again

Well he can come back still
Gw is creative

He always comes back
dusk patrol
No I mean he’s still a perpetual
sly ivy
And it’s suitably grimdark bc then we get another 400 pages of Nick Kyme to endure

But he wasn’t anywhere to be found after that happened
Probably hiding from being written by Nick Kyme
queen laurel

how immortal is a perpetual anyway

maybe he got turned into an ork
queen laurel
of course

It’s just a general term for people who are immortal
How they’re immortal isn’t the same

how immortal is a perpetual anyway
The "default" form is basically they always respawn after they die
like we are talking forming from the literal skeleton to the bone etc
dusk patrol
We see some have to be brought back, some don’t come back at all, some just live a long time

so does being a perpetual also save you from necron super nonsense guns

Some do the Wolverine/Deadpool thing

Generally it requires a big warp attack which affects your soul
queen laurel
he can probably show up in the future if they feel like it

To properly kill you
