yeah shes just a thrillseeker
KEK that
Yeah tbh I think a lot of the lower ranked Drukhari.
Like the slaves and shit. Probably would stop being Drukhari if they had the chance
She’s a straight razor
They don't
She doesn’t take drugs
yeah they basically dont know any better
its like asking a criminal to stop doing what they do
they dont wanna
She doesn’t drink in her new book
Either
She’s boring and lame/hj
Aside from when she’s in the arena
"she's no fun at parties. She won't even take the human, T'au, and Ork mixed drug I made! Such a prude..."
Still would be funny to imagine an ex-Drukhari trying to be
"Normal"
Ethereals when they catch 2 Tau dating who aren’t approved for reproduction
LMAO
"Hello fellow Eldar."
"I like doing things like talking and NOT torturing people!"
when they defect they tend to purge their evil tendencies, so jokes aside they wouldnt care that much since they seek that kinda lifestyle
^
Yvraines literally turned to dust
The visarchs never did
So I guess the Incubi lifestyle isn’t evil enough
do they ever explain why the drukhari just refuse to use most of the eldari tech?
what are ways that dark eldar can try to avoid their souls getting slowly consumed if they don't want to do the lifestyle
i forgot
like soul stones weapons etc
Not psykers
Drukhari are not psykers so they can’t use a lot of the good stuff
its psychic tech
they are stunted to use it
but arent all eldari psykers?
No
Because they give up their psychic power.
Yeah but it would kinda be hard to get used to.
Kinda also imagine it'd be similar to like...
Y'know how abused kids get confused when they get genuine love and care and they become paranoid as shit.
I think the same thing would happen to an ex-Drukhari that defected to a craftworld.
damn
Yeah but their souls grow dim from not using their powers
The drukhari have pretty much lost their psychic powers entirely
It’s atrophied
its the quilavent of you knowing how to carve wood but not using it for literal years
Both biologically and like
then you'd just forget
Culturally
they just refuse to use it
eldar are but Dark eldar is are basically an offshoot now in a completely different thing
Giving it up kind of delay the corruption as well.
The veil between the Warp and the Webway is thin, and as they dont police their psyker abilities unlike Craftworld as well its too volatile for someone to fuck up and let daemons into Commorragh
Just as tasty though
I LOVE DISJUNCTIONS
yeah
Eldar turn into drukhari If they indulge slaneesh don't they?
Slaanesh when the Drukhari accidentally uses their atrophied Psyker powers by accident:

Kinda
They just grow more psychotic really
dark eldar are more a "lifestyle" than a condition
If you worship slaanesh as an eldar you just die
Drukhari hate slaanesh
Eldar confuse me tbh
How so
They arent that confusing
There's two ways to stave off Slaanesh for Eldar.
Use protection (Soul Stone)
Or do as much torture, sex, etc. to stave her off.
you just need to read their lore tbh
The second one isn’t staving off slaanesh
It’s just refilling your soul
I never read the lore tbh
Because that’s a biological component of eldar I guess?
They can feed on strong emotions
So either condom, or just being infertile?
Like some fucked up bampire
I'm into chaos imperium and orks
that statement is gonna get you killed here
well then you cant really say they are confusing if you know nothing about them 
OK then let me ask you a question if you are truly a fan
can orks bend reality or no

If they beileve something it happens
NOOOO

HE FAILED THE TEST
DINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDING
WRONG
So kinda 🤷♂️
LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER
Chat kill him
Oh the bully...
It acts more like psychic duct tape
it won't turn a log into a gun
but it will allow them to fire a broken gun a few more times before it becomes unfirable
It basically just skips a couple of steps rather than skipping the entire thing.
Shootas can still be shot in the hands of a humie.
It'll just be extremely dangerous
And also probably explode
yeah it's just a poorly built gun
that's why they have actual doctors and actual mechanics for building stuff and healing people
If There stuff doesn't work in the hands of another race then it kinda is warping reality 🤷♂️
The Ork Gestalt effect makes it become more like a regular gun.
Although occasionally even that doesn't help since Ork Tech still randomly explodes.
They can't generate ammo out of thin air, unlike out rejected Veteran.
I mean it does
it more just is rickety as fuck
Like they paint things red and they suddenly go faster so 🤷♂️
Idk why all the hate hahaha
it can work
just fill in the missing parts and make it stable and you have a ork weapon
Or paint things purple and they go invisible
It does.
But it's a minor boost. They can't make it into the speed of sound or anything
Psykers can do similar things
That's a meme
It's just that Orks kinda just have a ritual behind it
They used to be the most advanced
damn you are on stage 3 ork misinformation
Also I said I liked there lore I never claimed to know everything 😆
Or 50 Space Marines can over take current earth.
Lmao ye
yeah just saying
Your execution is tomorrow

make sure that you at least do research
because we have already heard this stuff too many times
I think that's only due to the Tabletop
misinformation in warhammer lore is quite bad
woah slow down black templar
Lol I wonder why 😆
because on average warhammer fan has the intelligence of amoeba
To be precise, Bulgur is saying that you are even below that.
Also Orks canonically have their own language.
But like everything else it's wonderfully translated into English for our benefit.
So they just sound like the average British person
Or you could also say it's very hard to get into because there's years worth and you also have people that flame you and gatekeep 😆
Hey your words not me
What do you mean?
Yeah sorry about that man.
Yes but The thing is with warhammer is as wide as a ocean as deep as a puddle
may as well help them out on the actual real thing
^
there are still people out there that genuinely believe that the alpha legion is both loyalist and chaos
Once you get the basics it really isnt too hard to get ahold of stuff
Core rule book is the best tbh
For a baseline
Rulebook lore in general is good
8e codexes
My beloved
And I'm Alpharius
of course you brainless servitor
hue
I mean technically speaking during HH all the legions had loyalist/Traitor split divide...
And Alpha Legion mind games are Canon in all honesty, so...
Can't really use that as an example?
(Although yes, for the average run of the milk beginner it's good enough to know the legion went a 9/9 split on loyalist and traitor)
Tyberos is 600 feet tall and also my oc do not steal
you wanna say that to DIlara?
@storm jungle so what's this I hear about the memes about the loyalties of the Alpha Legion 😅
Anyway even if the Sigma Legion were loyal, in theory they would be loyal to the imperial truth and not the imperium.
Lmao theres not much to say
just the classic "AL are loyalists" copium people largely do for trolling
🚬 i mislike the alpha legion
throwing a random "I AM ALPHARIOUS" in the end of a story is such a cop out to having it effect the main plot
that's not really an issue with them, it's just like the Salamanders keep saying that Vulcan is alive
it's just something they say
😠
i mean not saying it as a battle cry
like saying it as a reveal
"I am not X i am alpharious"
im taking this ship!!!!
they all say that, it's never a 'reveal'
if you know alpha legion is there, there will be legionaries saying that
why are u so dense today 😭
im saying if theyre during an infiltration
they ruined a perfectly good ||raven guard story|| that way for me
towards they end they pulled the "reveal"
would you like it more if they'd say "I am alpha legion"
i dont like green eggs and ham
Ah well lol by 40k era ant loyalist Alpha Legion is already deep covered as a loyalist chapter or a Deathwatch Blackshield...
What I really want to know is why Deathrow is working with Eisenhorn
He's a heretic by any Imperial standards but a loyalist by any rational one. Ride or die for the Throne.
Individual Marines could be afflicted with regret under appropriate circumstances
And given a lone Alpha Legionnaire the possibility increases tenfold.
Or he could still be a Traitor, just pulling Eisenhorn's strings
Hehehehe
Not funny! Balls are serious business
🤔 what if the big reveal at the end is that morrow is a preptual
Morrow is the Colonel that went missing
Average blood bowl W
most reasonable warhammer fan
When bloodbowl gives you better Khorne cultists than Necromunda, 40k, 30k, AoS and Old World added together…
nah aos are basically the same thing as these guys
Excuse you Corpse Grinder Cultists are peak
that too
Yeha lmao
Ah yes crap forgot those guys
AOS khorne is generic in terms of AOS but still good
a khorne footballer
a bloodwarrior
Practically the same thing the other one just wears more armor and looks like he went through 5 orphanages in a single afternoon
and I do think the current World Eaters are pretty neat too
Once again, khornechads win
Well was comparing non-Marine things, but yes, Khorne Berserker Marines be good.
fair enough
Lmao yeah wow they are the exact same
also one of my favorite blades of khorne unit
A Skullgrinder
Btw this guy is a black smith
yep they chain up the anvil and use it like a flail
Khorne has been eating good in all the setting tbh
let me tell you as much as i am not a fan of the primarchs, Angron the red angel does go hard
Angron is a lizard man
would've been a great design for a unique bloodthirster too
yeah it's great
a lore question: why are melee more effective against demons?
Symbology
and force swords being stronger with psychic power i think
Swords and other 'ancient' weapons came from a time where religion/faith was more prevalent, and thus it is more able to deal with 'Faith' based stuff
Guns and other post industrial stuff lack that link
and demons really hate when something "faithful" starts ballin
but still some hand-crafted bullets and pellets can do harm
because nothing beats clobbering your problems away the old fashioned way
even basic small prayers can do stuff
yeah Faith is quite funky
Or emperors used nose candy
For the cullexes
That causes true death
For demons
its funny how Emprah never wanted religion to be a thing, yet with his mind (i guess) makes all these prayers and symbols work on demons
So that's why hammer is more effective against demons
what?
Emp wouldn't have to deal with these religious things if he didn't walk around in gold armour with a bright aura on top
has to be quite special though like a power weapon or blessed weapon as a normal run-of-the-mill giant hammer is not gonna do much against them unless wielded by someone that can strike with a force to crack open a tank like an ork
well its "respect" aura, not "faith" aura
They have golden throne dust grenades that permakill demons
are you joking right now?
No....
not to the mfs he met
i know right, he's a dumbass
Psyk-out grenade
He apparently had his disrespect aura on whenever he was around his sons, lmao
this is why i called him a dumbass
if I were to meet a super tall man in full gold armour and shines like the sun, i would claim him as a God
cough Magnus cough
3meters
isnt he like 10 metes
Think he was like 14 feet tall
there
Fixed it
american metrics ffs...
Giant man covered in gold who glows in the dark comes and says do not be afraid, and then is surprised when people think they are a god
I don’t hate Lorgar for what he was doing, pre-heresy. It was just his upbringing. If Big E could’ve just counseled the poor lad and not go scorched earth YOU DICK on Monarchia, maybe it would’ve been a better outcome
if he wore Iron instead
emperor never even made a note - "religion is a no-no, idiots"
Or if they just skinned erebus
Yeah, see him, he was the dastardly sonuvabitch.
erm i know looking at me burns your eyes and i can teleport fucking dragons but im technically not a god 🤓
Ik I just healed the wounds of who was going to become the last priest of the last church, but I am most definitely not a divine being
my theory is that the emperor knew he was becoming a god and hated it tbh
like you hear accounts of how oll and john spoke of him and others who knew him before and they dont seem that awe struck
all his mistakes make me think he's an actual man, but really powerful
not some alien
but then later on it goes to people seeing a thousand faces when they look at him
like even before the god emperor stuff and even before siege of terra he was slowly becoming a god
only when figurines stop getting bought
lorgar was spreading worship of the emperor long before he got yelled at
Interesting enough, Ollanius practiced the “Catheric” religion, which is like a distant (implied) connection with Roman Catholicism
think theyre gonna do something like that
Emperor projects a different image with his psyker abilities iirc
So some people see different things and blanks can see him normally
the emperor ||split a part of himself before the fight with horus|| so essentially the emperor on the golden throne ||is his analytical side and the part in the warp feeding on the worship is his human loving side||
is this true? documented?
Some guy just sees him as a cardboard box
Might have misread speculation so fact check me
This is just from memory
blankness covers a part of psyker powers
blankets
youd have to get a lot of blanks to cover him up and maybe not even then
Comfy
blacks
end times might be like the throne emperor trying to reunite with his warp self
one fed on death one fed on love
sounds comfy no?
it would make for a nice story
i hope emperor put his shit together after i get some cool ogryn novels
no fuck you you get league of votan
MMMM-MIDGETS AAAAHH
theyre mini ogryns but smarter
Mogryns
Either the 2nd part never existed, or it had separated long before the duel
you litearlly have heretic in your name
ive heard there is only 1 book and its mid kinda
Sister of Silence saw him as he really was though
or thats what he wanted them to think
Emperor was really a 5'3 short king
SOMEONE WAS OVERCOMPENSATING
his geneseed was actually geneseed from icelandic bodybuilders
stop talking about semen in chat!!!
Looks like someone's milking the topic hahahaha
Aughhh die die
Hahahahahaha
u mentioned it first
Ok mr geneseed
if i want to insult any primarch, do i say "yo mama" or "yo papa"
Made the mistake of watching Emesis Blue at midnight while it was raining
Have you played the map?
No, but I’ve seen gameplay of it.
That animation is probably one of top fave of TF2 animations
Course. Nothing could hold a candle to Team Fabulous 2
Big engineer
I like Wrench in the Gears
I also saw serverblight recently, pretty eerie stuff in that one
sometimes i start getting bored of 40k, then i pick up my land raider model and become a kid again
pew pew pew
i love tanks so much
I remember a story. It probably isn't true because it was on the internet and it's ridiculous
But fuck it, it's funny
Some guy was a cashier on Toys R Us and a kid put Barbies on the counter along with some other male adjacent toys
The cashier off handedly mentioned that the toys seem a little too girly for him
And the kid said "My soldiers need some hoes"
And so I wonder if I ever get guardsmen, that I should also just buy a Barbie or something
And put it next to them

Considering what my sister did with barbies thats tame....
(She held them hostage and mailed their severed digits back to ken when the random went unpaid)

Are you sure? Give me her number to do a check out.
Come on dude plenty of fish in the ocean don't fish in a volcano

its crazy that horus galaxy and alt right warhammer communities think that lbgtq community is causing rising prices
i was looking up stuff anf theres a bunch of reddit and twitter posts being like 'GW needs to pick between DEI and the raising prices...'
they are not the brightest bunch
The rising prices are literally just because of inflation
GW price increases are surprisingly lower then the inflation rate
Which is still ASS BECAUSE MY PAYCHECK HASN’T GOTTEN BIGGER

But whatever
When they are already more expensive than most other plastics, inflation barely makes a dent to them.
Yeah
GW sculpts are also just better though

Like I like battle tech but their mini quality is way lower lol
Same with infinity
But their quality are way lower than the 1/35 and 1/32 military miniatures while still more expensive.
They might even be qualified as the dimest of the bunch
very true
Are they lower quality then flames of war?
I can see GW’s stuff being worse then Bolt actions
But flames of war stuff seems not great
Flames of war is 1/100.
1/35 is military collector size.
Oh
Looks like a porcelain statue
UHDSHUSUHHAFJS
Damn daughters of khaine magic tricks
god i love guard tanks used as static defenses
baneblade is already a mobile bunker so why not
also shame that the stormlord can't be used as AA
the mega bolter should be usable against flying objects lets be real
New tau book has this
Btw
A baneblade gets its tracks wrecked and it’s turned into an AA emplacement/bunker
FUCK YES
@arctic talon how do tau fire cast warriors address their officers
Shas'ui, Shas'vre, Shas'el, Shas'o
or their "title" if they have one
I.E Farsight rather then being refered to as Shas'o or commander
could be called Farsight
They're usually just refered to with the rank
Or just Ui, vre, El, O
ect
Shas'ui, we finally crippled the giant enemy land crawler suit
excellent, send in warriors to finish it of-
BRRRRRRRRRRRT
Ui also isn't necissarily an officer rank is the funny thing
Since its the "veteran" rank
so you could have an entire squad of Shas'ui
anyways the baneblade
gets blown up in the book by a tau kamakazing it with a Barracuda
I wish for the wealth of the 1% to increase at the sake of the other 99%
Heh 1%, you mean .1%
I just want money for me, fuck all you nerds
Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna gaze longingly at the Journeyman Electrician payscale for a little while.
i just want enough money to stop working and spend my miserable existence online
Im currently just trying to actually get to a hiring manager for a job
linkedin is okay, but just cut out the middleman and apply directly to the job posting
So the Psykhanium was purely a darktide thing huh
I thought it may have had deep routes in warhammer lore
It does now
I don't doubt that a psyker as (seemingly) powerful as Sefoni could actually make you hallucinate training procedures in actual lore
Two decades from now the surviving humans will be akshullying each other about the details of psykhanium construction
(The surviving humans will be AIs)
Sefoni could make me hallucinate without using the warp ❤️
Oh no dilara is typing
Stronger psykers have done more OP things so its not that weird tbh
Damn it
haha owned
Stupid “work”
I'm still kinda early in Eisenhorn and saw a part where somehow without using the will he just made two guards "get anxious" and walk away muttering
That felt like a "the writer needed it to work so it did" moment
And he's not even particularly powerful to scale I think
Thats basically how magic works in 40k
LMAO
psykers with appropriate grades/levels can kinda do anything the writer wants

like we got some LITERALLY STOPPING TIME
It's funny to just take at face value and not think too hard about
yeah pretty much
Which is actually very appropriate for the average 40k fan
because like even when GW lists abilities psykers can do extensively an author just goes
"Okay so he blows up his past-self with his mind ensuring the person hes fighting is never born"
and im like "neat"
Okay so he blows his past-self

YOU WROTE IT NOT ME
My people Voxcast episode 9 with Dan Abnett is so good
- He’s super smart and also super nice
- So much good info and so many good observations
Also do you guys know how the Eisenhorn books happened, really?
I always thought GW commissioned them to accompany Inquisitor
But actually Dan got so excited about the sourcebook he asked to write an inquisitor novel
And they told him ok but hurry it up so we can release it with the game and make it look like it was all planned lmao
That's on brand for Dan
And they definitely allowed that for him since he's easily the highest profile writer they have or probably will have
He wasn’t then!!
He was kind of new
He comes across as just so lovely
And he is so well spoken
Look at me letting the mask slip and being wholesome
Anyway back to annoying everyone and talking about genitals
Well uh
eisenhorn using his abilties is weirdly worded a few times
No he wasn't new
also his weird monologues about how good his katana skills are
i mean carthaen swordsmanship
He at the time was already a pretty well known comic book guy
I mean he was new-ish at GW.
His first BL book was First and Only in 1999
Eisenhorn was released 2001
Xenos
Sources: BL website & Amazon for release dates; Voxcast ep 9 re: First and Only as first BL book.
He's definitely dan abnett
Okay genuine question what’s with power suppression devices being collars
like in general?
Like in 40k or you know the rest of the world
I dont know, might just be the visibility of it
Its either a neck collar or scifi handcuffs usually
Also i guess it doubles as a bomb collar
It's because heresy is stored in the adam's apple
Depending on setting
Literally it's adam's apple god said don't fucking eat it
Wat
Heresy. Is. Stored. In. The. Adam's. Apple.

Often associated with prisons, easy to see, has the obvious slave/submissive implications.
It’s the most visually striking place
Fair enough
Easier to signify.
Ironically explains it pretty well lmao
That's fake that's not even a real photograph. It's subtle but u can tell it's not a real person. Or rather an expert like me can.
Are you on drugs.
The only drug I'm on is reality
You people are lucky 2 have me 2 tell u what's what

That's right it's joever 4 u fools
Tf did @arctic talon go after that q anyhow
He got 2 terrible false answers and one amazing good one and nowhere 2 b found
We did unpaid labor 4 u

U have exploited the proletariat u bourgeoisie fuck

12018248th ogryn intelligence argument in general, kill me

The moment I say Tareldar in there it clicked
Do they have a history

But anyway yeah Ogryn intelligence lore is like
extremely badly outdated and kinda whatever at this point
yeah theres no retcons other than darktide
so the old lore still stands?
No
No lol
that's what a retcon is
Darktide expanded on it, not retcon
^
anyway
the 91 source was specifically that imperium favored ogryns for already being stupid
What I love is also like
as opposed to what you said that the imperium makes them stupid via uneducation
people for some reason just always wanna believe an entire sub-species of humans spanning the galaxy somehow all hate cramped spaces
which so far just doesn't seem to be true
and can never "learn"
They keep them stupid, they don't bother to nurture their intelligence past that of a child
^
Who said they make them stupid lol
the lore has always been that they literally manipulate them since they dont know anything else.
carpets did, that was the whole point
Cassia also wasn’t that dumb before her powers
Yeah that too
She just got smarter after using biomancy on her own brain
But it’s not like she was like

i dont think cassia is the best example, psykers already break the limitations of their species, and they always have their psyker abilities -- its just a question of when they awaken
rather, psychic potential
I mean before they were a Psyker
How would you write a genuinely mentally inept person?
Yeah that.
They weren’t that dumb is my point
After they were a Psyker they got smarter
Psychic awakening is weird
Probably by first and foremost ignoring all the bad ogryn tropes, which Darktide mostly thankfully does.
It might relate to it but I like to think it doesn’t
unlike uhhh Brawler, thats kind of it
but it checks out since hes suppose to be what a "Default" ogryn is
Brawler does have an excuse tbf
Yeah pretty much lol
His brain is literally being fried so like okay that checks out
im pretty sure it's only dormant, and psykers are always like "boy strange shit was happening all my childhood"
the example i can think of is heinrix in RT
people also hype the intelligence of darktide ogryns WAY too much
they do about as many arguably smart *and *dumb stuff
the amount of people that declare it non-canon is pretty funny tho
Well psychic awakening as in the phenomena was weird
they seem about what id imagine nork deddog or one with a bone'ead
Yeah but I would say he meets the tropes but still is his own person and character
No like
i said OR one with a bone'ead
Yeah he is really well written even with the limitations
i used to kinda hate Brawler but warmed up to him
nork deddogg was described as being capable to doing the basic functions we see in DT before he got the implant
im a Bodyguard main tho so im very biased 
I need more darktide tier ogryn content
Same
He was always my favorite, I'm a sucker for his trope though
I used to be a Brawler Bro but I moved onto Bully as my OTP
Bully is peak
Bodyguard is my second fave
His range is good!
Seer is my favorite
amazing yeah
Its mad good!
over all
inforsah 
Anyway Im one of those fellas that champion Ogryn intelliegence and truly believe that they're all secretly plotting to usurp the Imperium together as a unit
That we know of
Necromunda Ogryn Slave gang

my beloved
read Spark of Revolution, now!!!
I would love to read more about the Slave Ogryns though!
Oh fuck, really?
They have a whole ass book for Ogryns, by Ogryns?
Oh shit thats awesome
House Poopliath is here but its ignorable
Is House Goliath that bad? Like I know they're basically a weird middle man between human and space marine and they're not even that poor man's space marine that are employed in Imperial Guard regiments
House Goliath are like
fine
I just don't find them interesting at all
playstyle or lore wise
also I think a lot of their weapons look ugly
Thats pretty fair
Hold on, let me acquire this
Yeah like
theres a reason in most recent Necromunda story events they are used like how writers use nids or orks.
Aka just fodder to die since they're basic af and are not that interesting.
The other Houses are SO much better.
Are there people who are like "I LOVE GOLIATH!!!"
Ok but orks are interesting, or at least can be if written well
nids are uh, kinda written into a box
You get what I mean lol
Yeah there is but surprisingly again its not a lot.
I appreciate what they are and the vibe they sell, they sell it really well
but like theres not much I can do with them
and maybe thats the appeal?
you always get what you expect
Pretty much. They are what they are, not much else to comment otherwise.
hold on I gotta draw a battlemap for another campaign i'm working on
Except I only have ms paint and suck ass
BEHOLD!
also yeah Goliath imo is like
I cant write on paint lol
Wat we call the farthest stall from the door in the work bathroom
can't recomment paint.net enough
I have very little intrest in trying to kitbash them
also yeah paint.net is like MS.paint but good
or gimp is actually better strictly speaking but the hotkeys were designed by martians
yeah but I kinda already used ms paint for all my maps
Idk if I want to do them again
gimp has a lot of the photoshop tools that paint.net doesnt
you can import mspaint works into another program
NO
lmao sorry
its not literally paint.net, look it up in google
i dont know why they named it like that
Figured it wasnt correct
Paint.NET is free image and photo editing software for computers that run Windows.
here you go
Yeah I found it, thanks
can a dreadnought be a chaos lord? or would they be too insane
iirc there is at least one case of a dreadnought being a chaos lord
its possible just explain it as the writers always do
"idk his magic mojo warp is too strong"
he's a word bearer so i'll just say he prays eight times a day
Yeah that makes it even better on the magic excuse department lol
like we got chaos lords who are literally attached to their fucking flagships/control them
a dreadnaught is like so many tiers below that in being pretty possible

considering the insanity iirc is inflicted by the rest of the warband and because of how shitty the vessel itself is
i would say apart from space magic, it also has to do with the warband deliberately WANTS to keep him sane
as there are cases of sane chaos dreadnoughts
There’s a Iron Warrior one in the Honsou books
yeah thats who i was thinking of
Remember the golden rule in 40k is basically anything is more or less possible, its just a case of the excuse for said thing being explained well/thoroughly
like
i could see like
Exorcists are such a dumb idea for a Chapter on paper as one random example
but since its canon people just look at it and go"yeah thats cool"
so it works lol
a chaos lord going down, and his most loyal screamers made sure that he was put into an actually decent dreadnought chassis
and then his own power forces people to keep him maintained
dude's a fuckin
head in a spider dread thingy
Yeah see what I mean lol
ALRIGHT
now i just gotta write out my alpha legion led white scars

I think one of the funniest examples i remember having once was uh some dude saying chaos cannot use the webway properly or at all.
The genefather came out like a week later and it had the darkmech in it manipulating the energies of webway gates to quick-travel

my friend's first army homebrew had them led by a Gal Vorbak survivor
which i thought was badass
yknow
i wonder what happened to the Luperci
hmmmmmmmm
"Unaware that the entire plan had been foreseen by Rogal Dorn, Tormageddon was ambushed by a squad led by Garviel Loken. Loken was barely able to handle Tormageddon's superhuman strength but eventually was able to kill the creature. This time, the infernal power that powered Tormageddon had either extinguished or fled back to the Warp.[9]"
guess it depends on if tormageddon was with his luperci or not here
if he was then they probably got devastated, if not they could still be around and kicking, but probably as warband leaders themselves
getting beaten up by abaddon and press-ganged into the black legion if he ever found any of them
like having a gal vorbak chaos lord, having a luperci chaos lord would be metal as fuck too
and theres even more room for a luperci one
are the gal vorbak the daemon/marine hybrids?
yeah they were the OG possessed
technically by lore sticklers they were all exterminated by custodians
relish hoarders
not like that stopped the thunder warriors :P
i could easily see a case where a gal vorbak goes down in the fighting and his ridiculous implants keep him in a coma
tbh they could always make another wave of them
Assuming they can find daemons willing to share control
so heavily
they actually did, but they were given a different name
i actually wasnt either until i just checked up on Gal Vobrak lore again lmao
they're called Vakrah Jal
they did make gal vorbak dreadnoughts too, so this definitely happened
Can I just say how much I love rolling steel as a track
it perfectly keeps the feeling going for the situation, and really sets the scene
along with the wheezing built into the track, just chefs kiss

Do u just make an unambiguously positive post
& express ur appreciation 4 something
Banned.
Nobody expects the Inquisition of Love (my band name)
Everyone complains about it but I think Rolling Steel is a great experience.
I really enjoy it. Auric RS is insane and hilarious.
It’s mostly a ploy to lull you into a false sense of security
This is unrelated to 40k lore but people don't sleep on Path of Exile 2. Worth the early access cost tbh it's really gd good.
grind is too much
It's so fun tho
So tru king
@arctic talon ngl, not sure if I like Arcane season 2 a ton.
It’s very pretty and all that but the story is kinda.
Idk
Not terrible just not nearly as good or coherent as season 1 imo.
What… what language is this
There’s always gonna be plot armor stuff but yeah some of that stuff was
A bit much by the end too
Is this proto-indo-European
Like Ambessa not being riddled with bullets by the end
you know what a jobber is?
Uh wait I’ve practiced for this
Namǎs bhavān katham asti?
Guys go to bed
a jobber gets jobbed
it was more manageable in the first season but the second one was like
It was too much over a short time
the piltover goons jobbed even to the other goons
like they were just the show's punching bag
Yeah, I think in general season 2 felt like they had two seasons planned
But condensed it into one
even zaunite screamer #50 killed like 20 of them
as for the pacing yeah it was rough
It’s a lot over a short period of time
It’s not bad at what it’s doing but man it’s just, a lot
the Dictator Caitlyn arc began and ended like whiplash
The music video thing was definitely overused too
Like the chem barons are dismantled in a montage
It feels like that all should have been built up slower over a season, with Ambessa being the antagonist, and then the third season would be Viktor as the bigger threat
Bro I have always wanted to meet a thawed proto indo euro and ur telling me 2 go 2 bed
r u american?
The divine cow — is it more a god or like an adversary?
Well of course I am on the internet
i never really got exactly how viktor was even a problem
Other nations do not have technology
His motivations were definitely kinda weird.
Like I said, it feels like something which was meant to be much more spaced out and expanded on
I got the gist but
u seem like the internet is the only place ur on
ok yeah that makes sense i guess
No I went outside a month ago it was terrible I’ve still got rashes.
Tldr he’s deleting them from existance
Stuff just happens and then you gotta kinda figure it out and the rules and reasons aren’t clear
Since the soul is a tangible thing in runeterra
runeterra lore is actually kinda dope in places ngl
Viktor it was kinda clear it was bad for those reasons but we’re not really told much and it all just escalates crazy fast
As for the mechanics behind how I don’t know 
Tf u talkin bout mf
Arcane
Also League of Legends lore ig
But the hexcore was magic going wild
Also the stuff with Ambessa and her daughter was, idk.
Due to lack of proper control
It was fine
I guess
legends categorically don’t exist how can they be in a league
Checkmate
Yeah
Like
It all felt like it was supposed to be explained way more
They absolutely should have had 3 seasons
Ambessa should have been the season 2 villain who dies by the end
probably a whole extra plot around the zaun/piltover stuff to finish it up
And then Viktor becomes the season 3 villain
Of Zaun and piltover
ambessa dies as they realize shes causing the war or whatever
They’re going to be separated into two separate city states
Ambessa wanted war
@viral halo really dropped in here to say go to bed then split smdh
i know im saying but the chars dont know that or whatever
Oh
Zaun is completely ignored
Fair enough
But it’s how it is
I CANT FINISH
Zaun and piltover both having a tech boom after they divorce from each other
Send pics
theres no real reason why they'd even separate at that point though since iirc it was kumbaya
😘
Think about me it’ll speed u up
like by the end of the show
Cultural + ethical differences
Zaun and piltover are very similar but they’re two incredibly distinct cultures
Also, I don’t hate show Viktor but I really prefer the idea behind the original one
nobody actually reads anymore
The show Viktor is a lot less interesting in concept imo
Viktor isn’t that unique
Poor @arctic talon literally always trying to have a civilized conversation in the middle of our abject cesspool
Is the issue lol
the idea is identical in either one
There’s like a lot of them
its just one is a cyborg and the other is an eldritch mutant
Yeah but combine the magic stuff
As opposed to a technomancer kinda dude
Yeah
i do like the tech one more as well
He’s very much just horrific magic mutations now
Which like
Is occupied by many things
I feel like they could have done the exact same thing but make him more hextech steampunk looking
i cant wait for the noxus show to go down and we get people going "umm actually the noxus are the good guys"
NOXUS ARE THE GOOD GUYS
Also Singed’s whole deal is so random
noxus: awesome
noxus: evil asf
shrimple as
he just does horrific things to people because he wants to
his daughter is a secondary motivation to an extent
iirc they made it so swains already in power
He jsut shows up and kinda helps out and is sad about his daughter or whatever and then doesn’t matter
which is such a missed opportunity
since concept art reveals the Child/teen that ambessa
decapitated
is uh
Ionian

In the Mel flashback
He’s like chemical super weapon Mr. Freeze
in the original lore, singed gets hired for the 1st generation
which is before swain does his coup
missed opportunity since the setup of that plot is badass as hell
Their motivation for him was pretty weak imo, very generic “we need him to be tragic” backstory
I think the timeline is Invasion of Ionia -> singed hired -> Singed does his warcrimes -> Arcane season 1 -> Ionian war ends sometime -> Swain rises to power -> Arcane Season 2
mr freeze but instead of just freezing people and stealing money he actually gives people the most painful super cancer possible
But I guess the other option was
I mean he still is Mengle
“I’m evil lol”
i could see that honestly
but surely ambessa would have recognized him
true
by the noxian general who hired him
actually thats solid
She didnt' want other people finding out wtf was going on
Especially since she fucking gassed her own troops lol

Least based Noxian leader
What is this show why don’t people wear more clothes in it
The whole bit with Ambessa and the wizards and wizards in general was so undercooked, it needed so much more to it
ngl
i mean it IS set in a puritan colony in the 1700s
why even introduce the Black Rose lol
they're as clothed as it gets
Seriously
It’s cool but goddamn they do nothing
Like she baits the wizard lady and then kills her?
Ok
Like
what's your thoughts on viktor
Leblanc kills/does something to Ambessa
Oh it’s bc the French made it they’re degenerates
and then she gets her mirror image deleted
