raven stone
#

From his hands

rose thorn
#

his legion is very insane

raven stone
#

So yea. Broody, intense, but mostly sane.

#

The Primarch, ye

#

It's his legion that went off the rockers on their own

rose thorn
#

so iron hands iron hands, gulliman, horus (?),

#

who else is pretty sane

raven stone
#

Jhagtai Khan

rose thorn
#

khan murders people for fun, its a hobby

dusk patrol
#

He was more just the prototypical brutal and warlord of the primarchs

raven stone
#

I mean, Khan is a guy who exiles the portions of his legion siding with Horus

#

Instead of offing them

#

So...yea.

#

Sure he likes his hunts and wars

#

But pretty sane by 40k standards

rose thorn
#

he does ride a motorcycle into literal capitalist hell to murder perople

raven stone
#

But...that sort of craziness is Primarch standard :p

dusk patrol
#

He doesn’t hate it, it more disappoints him, but because he knows why they do it, it does make them stronger and his philosophy does match with that to some extent, which is why he didn’t actually stop it during the GC.

vagrant fox
#

Fulgrim was reasonably sane, if full of himself, until he found snussy

rose thorn
dusk patrol
#

The writers failed Fulgrim hard early heresy

rose thorn
#

he either was posessed or he like, did open surgery on himself for fun

vagrant fox
#

Like so much of the HH, wasted potential

dusk patrol
#

His primarch book is a much better example of him

rose thorn
#

first half timeline wise

#

not first half writing wise

dusk patrol
#

A heresy series where they of Fulgrim and Ferrus better and show their relationship more would have been a lot better but

#

Whatever

raven stone
#

I think the issue is pretty much him losing the plot during the siege as well

dusk patrol
#

I get why that was never gonna happen

rose thorn
#

the problem is the HH writing is either amazing or hot ass

dusk patrol
#

They had the issue of planning it to be much shorter

#

And then suddenly it gets extended and they already speedran a lot of early stuff

gray umbra
#

50 books later

raven stone
#

Also being too loyal to the ancient Index Astartes magazine articles

#

Like, those were written without a novel timeline in mind

rose thorn
#

do you think vulkan is sane?

raven stone
#

They ported some elements over very poorly cough Angron cough

raven stone
#

(Or Traitors during HH)

rose thorn
#

i dont even think khan kills xeno children

#

i think he has some moral code against that

#

but i dont remember

dusk patrol
#

And come across very unhinged and scattered

dapper gyro
#

Vulkan is sane, but dude is kind of eh.

rose thorn
#

ah

dusk patrol
#

So prior to the heresy, sure

raven stone
#

Well Vulkan also got tortured by Kurze

dusk patrol
#

But during and after?

spare osprey
#

DA terrans are still the coolest, no bias course

raven stone
#

So that cold not have helped

vagrant fox
#

I don't think many came out of the heresy very sane

dusk patrol
#

He definitely was off his rocker a fair amount

dapper gyro
#

He just was doing his own stuff alone most of the time, even when he was with his legion.

vagrant fox
dapper gyro
#

He showed up every now and then, then disappeared for a while.

raven stone
#

Basically SOME Terranite RG did end up trying to win their lord's favour back (if the unit entry in Exemplary battles is anything to go by)

rose thorn
#

i dont think alphariusomegon or either of them were sane

#

i dont have proof

raven stone
rose thorn
#

besides them being pathological liars

dapper gyro
#

Though, I think that he is one of the nicest guys. Then again, Sally fan base is fanatical.

dusk patrol
#

He showed up once during WotB unwillingly and disappeared again after

#

The heresy broke him hard as far as we can see

raven stone
#

Living too long probably doesn't help him either

rose thorn
raven stone
humble shoal
dusk patrol
#

Gotta define sane I guess

#

You could argue all of the primarchs weren’t sane by some definitions

rose thorn
#

true

dusk patrol
#

They’re not exactly typical cases

humble shoal
#

Petty man baby was sane

#

Just also a little bitch

raven stone
#

Perty?

humble shoal
rose thorn
#

how can we define sane

#

can they like, work a 9 to 5?

dusk patrol
#

Perty idk if sane is the right word at all

#

He had some huge issues

vagrant fox
#

I'm not sure Perty was ever right, dude had something going on right out of the pod

rose thorn
#

OH THAT PERTY

dusk patrol
#

“A bad seed” tbh

rose thorn
#

he had anger issues to the next degree

humble shoal
#

Yeah

rose thorn
#

and did kill his own sister

dusk patrol
#

He had basically no reason to be like he was too

#

His family and planet were pretty chill by primarch standards

rose thorn
humble shoal
#

Tbh him and angron were done dirty

#

Because it was decided they had to go traitor

#

The whole angron situation makes 0 sense to me

#

And their explanation of it doesnt make it better

raven stone
vagrant fox
#

There were a room for a lot of soft retcons but they stuck to some old-ass lore from what I've gathered

rose thorn
#

omg i forgot who the primarch of the imperial fists was\

humble shoal
humble shoal
#

Then they didnt

rose thorn
#

ROGAL DORN

#

thank you

humble shoal
humble shoal
#

With the bdsm glove

raven stone
#

He is actually put together mentally.

humble shoal
rose thorn
dapper gyro
#

How can you forget such an autistic primarch?

vagrant fox
#

Well, until the siege is done

rose thorn
dapper gyro
#

Dorn is the peak autistic.

rose thorn
#

and did let most of his men die in an unwinable war

raven stone
humble shoal
rose thorn
humble shoal
#

Its canon (its retconned)

raven stone
#

Iron Cage

rose thorn
#

yeah iron cage

dapper gyro
#

I like the IF and some of its successor, but Dorn is down in the list for me.

raven stone
#

Which, fair, not one of his better decisions

rose thorn
#

Idk how to feel about iron fists

#

i mean

#

imeprial fists

#

crap

humble shoal
#

The black ones

dapper gyro
#

Nah, I don't like them.

rose thorn
#

imperial fists have alot of like bone scrawing and a tribal style culture

dapper gyro
#

I go with Crimson Fist route.

rose thorn
#

but they also carry sextons with them

humble shoal
#

My second favorite chapter is an ultramarines successor, but guilliman is low on the list for me

dapper gyro
#

It makes more sense to use guns than mindless charging in melee.

humble shoal
#

I like the imperial fists main

#

Because they have daddy's slapping hand

#

And carve their names into it

rose thorn
#

my favorite chapter is the spears of the emperor

#

emeprors spears

#

smae thing

humble shoal
#

Mine is sharks because they still use mk5

#

Power armor

dapper gyro
#

The DT has the autistic nature from Dorn.

languid meadow
#

Sweet

rose thorn
#

is lion sane?

dapper gyro
#

Crimson Fists are at least got the logical side of him.

rose thorn
#

he was an asshole for most of his not coma life

dusk patrol
#

Crimson Fists are basically Imperial Fists 2.0

#

Just more heroic land stands and Ork focus

dapper gyro
#

And that's good enough for me.

raven stone
#

There was also some very recent lore about then answering a lot to High Lords

#

Oddly enough

humble shoal
#

Emperors spears?

#

Thought that was the current lore

humble shoal
#

Marines malevolent are pretty cool

raven stone
vagrant fox
#

I have taken a liking to the Minotaurs lately, they're a fun bunch

raven stone
#

The Spartan imagery helps alot

dapper gyro
#

We have so many spartan imageries now.

humble shoal
dapper gyro
#

Custodes were based on spartans as well.

raven stone
#

Minotaurs are Spartan Marines like how Ultramarines are Roman Legionnaire Marines

vagrant fox
humble shoal
#

Except minotaurs actually use a phalanx

humble shoal

Lamentors can go lament this di...

I want to see black templars and mm during the end times

#

#

Best Successor is Alpha Legion Successors.

Yes the joke is it can be anything.

humble shoal
#

I think lamentors are alpha legion geneseed

spare osprey

#

Dorn is not gonna be dead because money

dapper gyro
#

Blood Angels successor are so damn boring.

spare osprey
#

to see the debates on who the dude in the Astartes teaser was

#

cause they literally all look the same

dapper gyro
#

They have nothing but the fan base screaming about the Hawk Boy.

raven stone
#

Steadfast enough to see through all the bullshittery AL did

vagrant fox
#

Dorn can come back if they pretty promise to never bring back Sanguinius in any way

storm jungle
#

Watch out guys!

dapper gyro
#

I like BA as a legion, the chapters are just suck.

storm jungle
#

Its the blood angels successors!

#

AngelsAngelsAngelsAngelsAngels

spare osprey
#

only ones who look different enough are those new primaris dudes

#

if i can find them

vagrant fox
#

but the Flesh Tearers make fun of the BA for being dorks 😔

dapper gyro
#

Not just name and colour scheme, their fluffs as well.

#

Well, the Lamenters is somewhat interesting to be honest.

#

Maybe that's why they get more fans and echoed more.

vagrant fox
#

I vaguely like Angels Vermilion for their one bit of lore about just draining huge populations of blood and threatning the BA to do something about it

#

But yea standard boring BA name and colour scheme

dusk patrol
#

BA have some cool successors, but the names and symbols are definitely annoying

spare osprey
dusk patrol
#

I don’t really mind the colors as much since a lot of them do look cool

#

But all of it together is annoying

storm jungle
#

my favorite Chapter the Gore Golems will get their debut one day

#

just you wait

Gore golems

storm jungle
#

i think its referencing the golems from minecraft

#

spare osprey

and he's in the deathwatch

vagrant fox
#

how do they have less lore than some nobody chapter like the Accipiters with a name like that

humble shoal

They thirsty like the other blood angels

dapper gyro
#

Now looking at it, BA is like the generation of the red power rangers.

humble shoal
#

Since you know supposedly they are immune to the angry (this is a lie)

humble shoal

Who fucking murders zordan

Also the red ranger combo episode was great

What series of event gets you named Gore Golems

viral halo
#

Maybe a chapter master read too much of the old testament in his free time

Ben Shapiro is the chapter master of the gore golems

Every book is like 800 plus

barren prawn

i noticed that many dan books have like a chapter or 4 pages of useless yapping before he starts actually developing the story

and wheel of time is also like 15 books long

Of course, it's just funny cause we get together and talk about the books

What's really funny is after like 4 beers he starts talking about how cadia broke before the guard did, how humanity is the greatest force against entropy and evil, and how he thinks someone needs to kill nancy pelosi

The Imperial and Chaos Knights earn new Combat Patrol rules featuring pairs of Armigers and War Dogs. The sheer strength and durability of these towering war machines makes piloting them a remarkably different gameplay experience compared to regular Combat Patrols, and to account for their low numbers, they play missions in their own special way. Both the Armiger Trailblazers and the Slaughter Talon score points from their own specific objectives – ignoring the normal primary and secondary objectives – but to find out what they are, you’ll need to read the issue.

#

just run around killing shit i guess

shadow plover

fair, they've made plenty of changes to other units as well for Combat Patrol

seems pretty funny to get knights for a combat patrol but at least that means you can play faster matches with them

arctic talon

Are there any other known real world languages other than english and latin in 40k?

sharp pollen
#

i think only different versions of it, like high gothic and low gothic, old versions or newer ones, like dialects

#

there was an instance in eisenhorn book where he needed an info from some hobo, but he could understand him only with help of his archivist

#

and i dont think the imperium would allow another language

#

maybe some worlds that dont know shit about imperium or xenos, might develop their own language

Chaos as a faction like every group in 40k is fractured limbs all doing their own thing to appease their own gods.

tough haven
#

and they dont coordinate well

So I heard there's a theory, if big E finally kicks the bucket, he gonna become a Chaos god by sheer his psychic might, willpower, and the zealotry of the people of Imperium.

storm jungle
#

Its not a theory its pretty much confirmed with the final 3 Siege books.

#

But the fear is that he will basically be semi-mass extinction event like how Slaanesh was born and take half of humanity with him, but who knows lol

dusky scroll
#

Then I assume it'll just be a 5 way tie?

storm jungle
#

Chaos still wins in the end so probably not.

#

in the Siege them and their daemons actively get hyped that hes going to ascend, when the Emperor stops himself from becoming that the narrator says they arent miffed since they know it will happen eventually

dusky scroll
#

I wonder How Chaos Emperor God daemons would look like.

storm jungle
queen laurel
#

They're called living saints

vagrant fox
#

Cool as hell 🤙

#

Apparently they'll be Irish, see seamus

storm jungle
#

lmfao

arctic talon
#

LOL

#

Is he the end and the death

dapper gyro
#

The shape of the living saint is not created by just the big E, but also by all of the worshippers in the imperial as well.

dusky scroll
#

Wait... bad idea

#

That just sounds like Tau

storm jungle
#

Sounds good to me tbh

#

whatever deviates from the norm lol

dapper gyro
#

If big E becomes a chaos god, the dude would likely spawn the being like The Angel, aka proto primarch.

#

So this immense might of Chaos, is it fueled by the War in heavens?

arctic talon
#

The war in heaven irreversibly fucked the warp

humanity is its no.1 champion

im pretty sure hosue Ti still speak some asain langauge

you need some thing of equal magical or equal in divinity to counter said corruption

Chaos is a part of the psychic energy that composes Warp space. More generally, "Chaos" refers to anything related to Chaos, including its influence, the Gods of Chaos, their followers, and the Warp. Chaos is almost synonymous with the Warp - the two concepts are inseparable: Chaos is the limitless ocean of spiritual and emotional energy that de...

Have you seen

It is so good he just draws a 40k person at the beginning

"40k person"

sly ivy
#

An inquisitor

#

Podcast host is geeking out and babbling and Blanche is just murmuring random shit

hallow basin
#

i'd geek out if I got to speak with Blanche too

#

His art is very special to me. I even have Dark Millennium playing cards illustrated by him

sly ivy
#

Yes very relatable

#

To me too.

#

But I don’t have those.

#

I mostly shitpoast on here but 40k is really important to me.

#

You don’t get to as many decades of life as I have without experiencing some absolutely godawful things

#

And it’s been a constant escape and comfort.

hallow basin
#

That is quite relatable indeed

opaque coyote
#

The biggest war technically

#

But I prefer if he just didn't really have a defined point

#

It would be interesting if there were records of him influencing shit in the middle ages though

#

Like he had his blood stained gauntlets on humanity even when they were a tiny planetary species

#

Along with many many others

crystal forum
#

possibly millions of alien races in the galaxy but only humans (not even particularly psyker gifted species) decided to yeet themselves into creating a god like being

#

on a single planet... before they even branched out to the stars

#

every year the imperium sacrifices more psykers to the corpse emperor than there were shamans alive during the stone ages

#

unless i guess there were billions of shamans living around stonehenge

plush mason
outer wave
#

Yeaaaaaah

opaque coyote
#

He was basically just

#

A powerful human

#

Not the god-like psyker we know

#

and that he basically grew more powerful due to his experience

#

and his power gaining over the years

#

and the unspecified deal with the Chaos Gods.

#

and due to his increased power he needs more souls.

I always forget Personas lore after I learn it

and the persona is the manifestation of your will + personality

#

I think the most batshit insane game plot wise is Persona 2

#

Because it’s about conspiracy theories becoming true due to enough humans believing in it and Nyarlathotep overlapping the world of mind and matter

#

Anyways Hitler is the main villain because enough people thought he was alive 💀

#

And also there’s 2 million Nazis in Antarctica

#

and also Hitler is the human manifestation of True Evil

#

And he has the spear of Longinus

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

You literally Impale him with a spear and burn his corpse 💀

arctic talon
#

Bigfoot is a persona in persona 1

arctic talon
#

Pretty much any mythological creature/god/spirt is a Persona/a demon in Atlus’s stuff

#

Except for like

#

Really really really obscure shit

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Yes

#

We literally have an example of someone’s Persona being Che Guvera

#

Because they looked up to his Ideology

queen laurel
#

I can't wait for my persona to literally just be a mixture of AOS and 40K orks

arctic talon
#

Unlikely lol

#

Anyways the final boss of Persona 5’s base game is Yaldy B Yalbodeth/the demiurge

#

From Gnosticism lol

#

Persona 5 extended Persona’s into Historical figures

#

Which means in theory someone’s Persona could be like

#

Stalin

#

Or Pol Pot

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Yes

languid meadow
arctic talon
#

Persona 2 is prolly the most deranged and I already explained it earlier

#

Persona 3 is about stopping the world from getting super depression and dying

Persona 4 is about solving a murder mystery and a super natural fog

Persona 5 is about solving corruption and flaws in society and self worth/apathy/being yourself

#

Persona 1’s story doesn’t matter

arctic talon
#

Also the Murderer in Persona 4 literally being an Incel goes crazy

#

10/10 plot lol

languid meadow

Cinematic win

The rest of the Persona’s are sequels but not related story wise. They just all happen in the same universe

queen laurel

they can be repowered again if you insert a power battery like you do in game

zealous copper

do they feel dead?

queen laurel

But you know if you don't prepare them they will breakdown

zealous copper

They probably feel quite bad

queen laurel

They're still a little bit sentient

theyre lobotomized so its less but its been known to happen that they retain or regain a bit of consciousness

the poor things

oh now I feel bad

it's going to make patchy the pirate leave

vagrant fox
#

It's fine they're redeeming themselves through service

tough haven
#

But there’s heretical rumors that not all servitors lose their consciousness

#

It’s likely they still suffer

#

“I do not dream, I know only waking nightmare”

#

“I am not as whole as I once was, I can feel pieces of myself drifting away”

#

“Beneficent Emperor, why have you forsaken me?”

#

“Can you take me with you? I am so lonely”

#

Clearly it is a fate far worse than death

#

And that’s the point

#

Servitors are criminals (doesn’t have to be serious ones) who have been sentenced to be turned into a lobotomized cyborg, as the Imperium has a strict ban on anything resembling AI, so this is how they make automated machines

#

Most automated machines anyways, very simple ones can get away without having a human brain

shadow plover
#

not always just criminals either, many cases where soldiers too wounded to be easily rehabilitated who have been servitorized

tough haven
#

Anyone who can be useful

#

Some servitors are even vat grown

#

Anyone who says being a servitor isn’t one of the worst fates in the Imperium should read the excerpt from Flesh and Steel of the servitor factory

#

I can find it if you want

storm jungle
#

"crimes" in the Imperium can be the most lightest offense that most higherups use to turn people into servitors, theres some awful ones like a mom being turned into a servitor as her last memory was trying to get food for her starving kids lmao

vagrant fox

Some of the darktide character gen offences are just you mildly inconveniencing a noble and being tossed into jail aren't they

storm jungle

Also saying corpse starch tastes terrible

its comedic but also like very lore-accurate

One of the origins in darktide is us being in the way of an important figure

like a certain model selling like crazy when it wasn't supposed to, especially for an older kit

most of their battleline and monster kits are still sold for AOS

they do not like conflicting identities and crossplay
