and nothig coming out of it
They shot this photo, when they hadn't even released like, a single movie yet.
Javier Bardem was gonna be Frakenstein, because his fat fucking face.
Sexy fat face
And uh, Depp was gonna be the invisible man because John Cena was busy.

Oh my god the new MaxTac logo
Notice, everyone is strategically sitting, leaning or closer to the camera so Tom Cruise doesn't look short.
WE'RE GONNA FUCK YOU IN THE EYE SOCK- I mean uh, protect and serve or something.
Shut up its awesome.
it's cool as hell tho
Now that one sucks
I know. I hate it.
Looks like a Gorillaz knock off band.
Considering its a spitting image of your profile pic i have to agree

Dilara really is suffering from dementia
ok generic bald man with side of face in bionics user
anyway this logo is better
take that shit back to airsoft
Not that it looks bad
no it's a cool logo
You say this like gangs irl have good logos
Also this logo is fine
yeah but this is fiction
Okay
it needs to be fancier
you are gonna be a subgroup in a minute
Still cursed it’s that color selection
I feel like it fits with the gang
But yeah the colors maybe
Maybe it’s the Trans Claws
Lol
It's very funny to me that Empire at War didn't get any sort of cinematic like this but their funny personal IP did
Enciclopédia Lusa Videojogos (www.videojogos.enciclopedialusa.com)
Introdução do jogo Universe at War (Xbox 360) - 2008

hey those CGI artists gotta feed
It's not like CDPR have ever been
If you changed the guns
That could be a 40k logo
Almost
make it a bit more minimalist
theres also uhh i forgot the forgeworld
that actually does the eagle-cog thing
This isn’t CDPR tbf, It’s RTalrosan
Gryphone
Lol
damn that bird's got three leaf clovers for wings
That can’t be good for it
Lots of birds
When they’re one of the most important companies for making cybernetics
to be fair
Then again
Yeah ones named after a stupid bird
I suppose V doesn’t need a majority of it
Which we eat for thanksgiving
It might a well be
💀
it's everywhere outside of europe that has the bad names ok
Be happy and blessed that your existence is relevant
Most names for things are kinda dumb if you break them down tbh
Or very simple
We’re just used to them
I have to make a stand against the turk
Looking at a fantasy map going "no one would ever call their country this" and looking at irl maps with things like "Germanland"
POV: you’re any country in the Middle East during the last 4 centuries
What the fuck is this company LOL
Main Europoors are very odd
Me when crusades 💀
also this feels like
poor man's Ultor
They should have made the blade in the shape of the lakes
That would have been better
CIRCLE GUN
Lol
NO CAN SNEAK UP
I THINK they are drill
SHOOT ALL AROUND
but yes
What IP is this ?
Cyberpunk for the others
Ah, Saints Row
origin: Star Trek Discovery Season 1 - re:View
https://youtu.be/ri7v-utIcvY

i never noticed until now that heretic astartes guns in SM2 are HH era counterparts to primaris weapons
the plasma incinerator is a plasma cannon
the sniper bolter is a nemesis bolter
bro opened his eyes
i never noticed the names
also i thought a nemesis bolter was just a bolter that shoots nemesis bolts
i didn't think it was an actual sniper gun
yes but it's a nemesis bolter in SM2
Mhm
the weirdest thing is the neo volkite pistol is still neo volkite
it's clearly a stolen primaris gun with heretic symbols carved on it
Its not like really out of the realm of possibility
It’s pretty common lore wise
Lol
In arks of omen vashtor when the black legion invaded the rock
They were eating good when they broke into part of the armory
wouldn't it have made sense to make the heretic version be a volkite serpenta
Also the neo volkite pistol definitely resembles just old volkite pistols
i was gonna say but you need to remember they gotta handwave-excuse it because primaris equipment usually has no counterpart
Aside from "find a sniper for chaos-man that matches the loyalist primaris dude"
Also tbf
it looks like the primaris to me
They’re very similar yeah, basically the same thing
Neo volkite just is weaker + lacks TUBE to power
it only has "neo" because like
In universe I think it’s just cheaper
New
"we gotta differentiate faction weapons"
It’s new
Space marines get volkite
break free fro mteh matrix
it's not shittier than OG volkite rigjt
And so do admech
god damn it
It’s got a lower power output compared to proper volkite pistols
But that’s due to using a battery
And not a big power pack
It’s a cheaper way to make it
It’s a convenance + ease thing
volkite weapons use identical batteries thoufh
martian raygun goes voom voom
Real volkite is super super expensive in universe
No like
Volkite have big battery
With tube connecting
Neo volkite have smol battery in gun
because it's a pistol?
CHOOM
2077 Brainrot!!!!
Volkite pistols also have tube
i'd like to see a neo volkite rifle
Blow off choffer
Hmm
Also like
A ton of primaris guns lol
Like
It was actively effecting their effectiveness as a fighting legion
Since they were busy looting
in reality it literally doesnt fucking matter, volcunt is volcunt, they just try to differentiate it for tabletop reasons
Primaris die -> people grab their shit
that does make sense but i havent read any post primaris books so i wouldn't know
You haven’t read any books Jay smh
Also wait
does this mean csms will stop beltfeeding all their guns
that's a caliver right
or is it just aesthetic at this point
CAWL IS A FUCKING CHEAPSTAKE
beltfed is cool shut up
BROKE ASS BITCH
CSM are very non standardized
YOU DIDNT KNOW THIS ALREADY
They just do what they want
i like belt fed bolters
LOL
Yeah your average CSM warband works like a big DND party, including all the annoying dumbass users and their questions
it's like heretics broke all their magazines so they have to manually make cloth belts
I love the ghetto gear tbh
dont ask where the belt goes after firing
Unironically that’s part of it
It’s what really makes CSM for me
It’s a fucking belt fed sniper rifle
They don’t have the supply lines
I can call it what it is
i am a big fan of the csm models having like 50 different shoulder combinations
Find a home for this poor marine
It’s also why my CSM legionaries for KT aren’t Black Legion
Chaos Warband down so bad they start throwing rocks at people
he got attacked by bees
I have the bottom of the barrel Red Corsairs
i'll get an image of the SM2 heretic neo volkite
if it has like
Give me your bolter
some spikes on it im gonna scream


yeah
sounds about right
kaos wuz here
Which if it’s supposed to be stolen gear
i wish my DDR5 ram was faster
We wuz legions n sheet
it takes 15 seconds to open up SM2 literally unplayable
The lore for my heavy gunner is they stole the heavy bolter during badab from a Star phantom

A real thief in the night
based
Imagine messing up the startup screen QTE
Pathetic
i will strive to be better, iron daddy
playing MHwilds made me realise I really do be playing only games that run like ass
it's an innocent word
💀
It is
as I always said, all good games run like shit
Except when you use it
your sample size is also skewed since every game in the last 10 years has ran like shit lol
That’s why you play console master race dork
Imagine having to worry about optimization
Guh I hate my life.
bro's paying a fee to play online
Bots moment
Unironically if I had bought an Xbox and just paid for Xbox live
I'mma put in that link and get free $50 from steam, outta my way gayboy
I would have saved more money still than what it cost to make my pc
I think sir Urgot clicked a link he shouldn't have
I assume the implication is its stolen but like lmao
at least put some flair on it come on
Tbh that’s what it looks like yeah
They looted that shit
they just stole it from an ultramarine dilara give them time to make it more edgy
Covered in blood too lol
volk yourself
But it’s not bad
Maybe the guy who stole it wasn’t a hack like you guys smh
No
A real artisan at work
when will they make yolkite
When you start going to the gym
i do
Do you think CSM get really good at painting those symbols
Go more
5 days a week
Or do they have stencils for them
You’re wasting time here right now when you could be gyming
i like their teeth picatinny rail
it's a "plasma gun"
it shoots red eevil plasma
instead of the good guy blue plasma
it looks primaris somehow
at least the heavy bolter is good old chunky
I do like how fucked up looking
The CSM guns are
Like they look weird in a good way
man my discord is all messed up
this is the las fusil, never heard of it
super weird looking
like a lascannon on steroids
i like the can of evil juice
the tactical mountain dew
This was invented for the game
it looks like a lascannon from WW1
Yeah
the scope is like those really old sniper scopes
Cawl should be hanged and quartered for making whatever the fuck the desolator's gun is
Nerfcessors*
this is the heaby bolt pistol
Cawl is a perpetual and used to design guns for Nerf back in our times
You don’t understand.
He found the STC for some GI Joe toys and made it work.
He is actually a genius.
one of his merged personalities was a toymaker
I do hate tho like
how you can tell these are all based on primaris guns
not firstborn gear lol
sadly multiplayers doesnt have the grenade launcher bolter
Oh
so no heretic v
I could barely justify it by saying Chaos steals stuff, but yea, sad times.
Yeaaaah
ah well it is what it is
I mean a lot of it does look homemade tbh
Or rather
Unconventionally sourced
It does look weird though
Nemesis bolter is fine
That thing literally has never existed in art or on minis
Lol
what do you think of the bolter
just a classic bolter
Yus
it looks like a bolter
called a boltgun because eh
of the bolt weapon variety
Boltgun and bolter
the kind that shoot bolts
Too much animation budget
as cool as it looks this is haggard af
Lol, I like it
i like the rail system on it
the heaby bolt rifle is just called defiled and they added their own scope to it
it looks like an elongated bolter
I mean
like they were trying to manufacture their own heavy bolter
got a pair of clamps and went STREEEEETCH
you can tell it's not just a stolen heavy bolter like the neo volkite is
also what if the neo volkite looks so basic because they didnt want to make a new model for a post release gun
This feels like
They took inspiration from an in universe sense
Like a csm saw the heavy bolt rifle
And decided to make his own
yeah like they actually tried manufacturing it
the box magazine on a Heavy Bolt Rifle, my mind just defaults to an M240
like CSM are adapting to primaris
CSM are also using dif rounds for their bolters now
They’re using ones based on the heresy era ones often
Since they’re running into marines more
Normal bolt rounds in lore aren’t ideal for killing power armored targets
interesting
I mean, does the minor blessings of chaos give the CSM a slight advantage with their weaponry?
There were a bunch of weird bolt rounds made during the heresy in an attempt to better murder marines
Depends on the blessings
But those usually just make you better
Rather then your gear
The traitors made the banestrike or whatever rounds first and used them on Istvaan, desgined to pierece marine armor, which gave them an edge.
Yeah
pretty much all the scoped variants are just bolters with extra gear
pretty boring
I like how the banestrike is attached to the hip with a limb attachment, makes me think of the smart gun Colonial Marines use in Aliens
they tried to make the melta rifle look HH
Tbh what else would they do
It works
It looks like a weird melta pattern
it looks better than the plasma attempt
Its not like all traitor gear is heresy era
Yeah that also
It can be from whenever
Its jerry rigged, corrupted, taken from many different eras.
Or just theft
im just surprised by the nemesis bolter, that's lost tech right
this is a pretty cool kitbash for nemesis bolter
"brother, i am handless"
i could glue some intercessor scopes on my tactical marine bolters....
those scopes look so goofy on intercessors
i just dont get why the bolt rifle needed a scope
it's the primaris bolter
but primaris dont get "generic" gear so i guess it had to look specialized
it gets a pass for me. The occulus though, the scope is so blocky
Its got a bunch of senors and shit.
There's a part in one of the books where a marine sets it up to maintain overwatch for him over an area
i actually like the occulus it looks like it has a rangefinder
a turret bolter?
No he removes the scope and places it down
that's pretty cool
So it can view a whole wide area
Good cogitator
i do wish there was an assault bolter in SM2
that's heavy
but those are for inceptors
inceptor squads
it's gravis armour still
They've datamined files for it
It allegedly will be a secondary option for some classes.
oh great class options
When do we get our chaplain class
Ngl I wish Leandros like
Did stuff in the campaign other then yap
Probably gonna be apothecary first.
support type
I know its gravis, Gun Nut. I'm saying which Primaris Astartes use it
Like genuinely he’s whatever
If the chaplain wasn’t Leandros he’d be forgettable
Should have made him do something interesting
But unclear, they said they're tying to do the main roadmap stuff first and itll take a while since theres so much work that needs to be done for each new class.
what was the datamined second class for tactical
Hey is there any armies that have a good stealth detachment? With a lot of deployment gimmicks and teleports and stuff
There isn't one
aw
Its a new class
i'd like classes to have sub types
Apothecary and Chaplain are the two they've said they'd like to do.
are they really planning such big changes to the game
Skitarii hunter cohort, the space marine RG one, Necrons and GK aren’t stealthy but they have the teleports
Necrons?
Biggest thing we know is Horde mode, they've just said those are the classes they'd like to add
Yeah they can teleport some stupid units iirc
I'd expect maybe Techmarine might be there too.
space marines have a lot of stealth units because they have everything
except more gravis
Ah
they have a stealth dreadnought that's not actually a dreadnought
I swore it was either agents or guard that had teleport tanks
wha
Ah gotcha
this is guard
guard cant afford teleporting
Oh that’s awesome
arent planes bad in 10th
you could field tanith units
It’s also not actually being picked up by a physical mini
The Corvus black star isn’t bad especially since it lost unique
ah the corvus black star
describe it
they're terminators of course they do
ha
called it
It’s a stratagem, it’s rare to use it
Yeah it’s cool
Oh
I love GK I have no clue how I forget that
you can play with creed and shit out a titan from behind a potted plant
He hasn’t done that since 4e
awww
Okay
GK imo are inevitably getting new minis
GK fans desperate for anything
Lmao
God Gray Knights look so cool
grey knights, the mary sue faction
I was indifferent, i thought "okay suped up astartes." but then I learned about the months of shame
Months of shame fucking sucked
if you want super astartes that aren't op it will be deathwatch but GW removed them
It’s why I hate space wolves
GK are cool
That’s not even true
Deathwatch exists again
they do the knight aesthetic better than DA for me just sucks that they're stories are something else
such a shame for a cool faction
Just play space marines tbh
You can run wtachmaster and the guy and vets in Sm anyway
They're not
ok
i call it downsizing in a work space
Too true.
But the index detachments are still allowed
I do love the entire aspect of tabletop of like
They killed like half of the Slaanesh units
you are minding your business
then GW makes a random update
"Oh I cant run these anymore huh
"
haha nerds
Most of the characters, all the vehicles, and the half human demon seekers are dead in 40K
For Slaanesh
Unfortunately when GW makes an update the models disappear and the older rules go up in smoke, and you can't play them again.
"hey lets not progress the lore in any meaningful way so people can still use their models" obliterates models anyway
It affects tourneys, and people I don't care about playing with anyways at my LGS
at least with killteam they announce when the models will be shelved
oh speaking of KT, i gotta place my order for Temp Aquilons
In general I don't care a ton of 10e anyways, I expect 11e they'll start adding more depth back to the game.
The streamlining and trimming of fat needed to happen but its definitely a bit much.
imperium is still doing the same shit but also here's votann have fun
It's why I am starting to turn the hobby into art and collection, but never, ever playing.
I don't have enough cash to be constantly updating.
Very excited to play kruleboyz again, since their two big bugs got fixed
But I gots me Heresy so I'm happy.
Tbh thats most people, I play on TTS mostly for games.
A very small portion of the people buying models plays the game.
BOAT
I keep forgetting votann exist 
Oh yeah
ah yes, the good ol LCAC
Which sucks cause space dwarves sounds cool asf
your models were cancelled so space dwarves could get another space RV
Necromunda has as many squat models as Votaan
Suffer umgi
thankfully they adhere to road safety with headlights
Well yeah because Necromunda is peak
do votann even say that
True
Nah its a fantasy slur
votann too boring for that
rude
Azumgi
grimbo
Yeah
Which is like, tree or something
Glimbus
Grimgi
Cause Kruber is tall
maybe it's like goyim or gringo, it maybe isn't a slur but it sure sounds like one
Its a slur
Umgi i mean
Azumgi means Battle human i'm p sure
Calling humans monkai without ever knowing what a monkey is
^
Sorry actually Azumgi is a compliment yeah
Umgi is Umgi
Yeah that
Its like sturdy human or something.
all of bardin's names are nicknames
Hard human
it's a compliment because he's a reliable battle comrade
well constructed human
to bardin
UmGAK
Zharrin is the female gender word for fire
Grimgi means harsh
Azumgi
grimbordill
i prefer urist
whatever's the name for dwarf language
Zharrin
'zharr' = fire, 'rinn' = noblewoman -> 'fire lady'. Alternately, 'drin' = path or road, so maybe like 'fire path' or 'fire conduit'
Azumgi
'azul' = (literally) metal, (figuratively) dependable or sturdy, 'umgi' = human -> 'sturdy man' or 'dependable man'
Wutelgi
'wut' = wood, 'elgi' = elf, so just wood elf
Grimgi
'grim' = harsh or unyielding, + umgi -> 'harsh man'
Here's a breakdown of them
what's KO
Killer Oppossums
Also what the hell does kharadron mean
google remembered
Isn’t it like sky mountain
I love chaos dwarves !
Something like that
IM SO EXICTED
idk
I actually didn't use that
CHAOS DWARVES ARE GONNA BE SO AWESOME
source?
me
Me and one of my wives are gonna design a CD hold when they get revealed
She knows dwarf lore I know AOS lore
God I can't wait
Lmfao
Unlike 40K AOS releases are half way done instead of a quarter of the way done
peak movie
Fr
Very underrated
It's exact same color pallette lmao
That grandma bot was uhhh
The design for them was really cool

home depot type beat
40k is over halfway done already with codexes
waiter waiter more artillery/war machine factions !
Save big money, oh save big money, when you shop Menardsssss!
I mean army reveals
New srmies*
Kms
NEW ARMIES are half way done
My bad
Instead of 1/4th
I’m not sure what other new armies
My bad
Probably nothing
Sorry ik this is not the full version, but it's still all of the ending part after the ad. I'll try to eventually upload the full version with lyrics on here. Anyhow, took this video last July.
Goes hard
Pray for the Votann second wave and World Eater second wave
slow cooked to charred carbon perfection
pure carbon is good for the soul
I’m going to cry if salamanders (bad) become a full army
They wont and also I hope they do
not before iron hands get their own codex
Just cause you
They're gonna get an update though soonish probably
New model, new sprue, some new rules probably.
The LoV has been cancelled sorry they're being discontinued
By Gray-Skull
Woman(?) in the background looking like Dr. Breen
i should post AI generated videos of iron hands saying stupid stoic quotes to get the gen Z morons to buy them more
"Welcome. Welcome to City 17" looking ahh
Jokes aside, I love how the carapace armor looks here.
Badass
Weathered
And I generally like the Hive City background.
are arbities in lore ordo hereticus?
They are a seperate Adeptus
Oh okay, rules wise they were grouped with hereticius
agents
Agents being weird
Crazy that imperialis fleet is the only real detachment
Not really. Separate adeptus.
But their duties do overlap.
Basically Arbites are first responders to Heresy(tm).
If they can clean things up, great
If they can't, that deserves an Inquistion call
Each world will have their own enforcers and police, but the Arbites are like the Feds, they got juristiction everywhere
Of course, Heresy can range from an actual serious Chaos Cult, a Genestealer incursion
To uh
I think my heart just really wants me to buy plastic
Some random citizen violating rule 11356-C-A
(he coughed in front of a adminstratum building)
arbites are a good choice, they can look like riot police if you want
I should buy more kruleboyz, then I’ll get my heard straight
i think they're the infantry units of agents
Yeah
they also come with doggo
Voidsmen, arbites and like
I’m just a bit confused how you do homebrew lore for agents
I forgot what the other option was
GW be like "Ooooo you need to buy plastic. You don't need to eat today oooo"
Breachers
Inqusitorial forces or a rogue trader house
I think technically our Rejects are agents
Tabletop wise not super for agents
Only by technicality
like elite infantry
It is just weird to run grey knights in a not grey knights army
Yeha but you can use them in any of the detachments
Grey Knights are part of the Inquistion (tm)
you'll rarely see grey knights not accompanied by an inquisitor
Put them in the ordo xenos or the RT
They make sense fluff wise in the malleus and maybe the heretic is one
Otherwise no
Imo
Also their existence is super weird
Because they are the only 1 of two Ordo malleus units
they have more important things to do than fight xenos
In the army
What do employers say
Ah yes
They're just diversifying their portfolio.
what's the other
The terminators and coteaz
Gotta take a break from Hellbeasts and crush some Ork's skull
The two malleus units in the game
A nice change of pace
Weirdly Draxus and Greyfax gets buffs too
But that’s also just because all the ordos buff all inquisitors
With the power of homosexuality
They shall become stronger!
interesting
agents do have one of the most flexible lore choices on tabletop
Agents suck
they really needed storm troopers lol
it makes 0 sense they didn't get them
"ONLY BOYS SHALL RECEIVE MY SEED"
-Emperor circa 30th millennium
*men
So you can basically play
Bad sisters
Bad space marines
A grey knight
Or the only good option
Or asaassian spam
would have been cool if they got joined to scions
You forgot the funniest option Mags
Titans
you run a warhound
and then IMperial knights
Do they count as agents?
and then you fill out the rest of your points with the RT retinue
they're not agents
but its a legal army
LOL
Lmao
a warhound and his ant friends
its like the "where genestealers" army
where it was like
a warhound, Brood bros
and questoris knights
that got patched out unfortunately
How is the army of models from other armies still completely undercooked
but it was really really funny
because they phoned in on writing rules
lol
They really wanted to sell a 60 dollar book
the titan is being puppeted by 3 genestealers in a trench coat
Like what the fuck is this lol
why are navy breachers and the vigilant squad battleline
but Voidsmen and battle sisters not
Because voidsmen at arms are 5 models
Imagine being some random Chaos Cultist.
You're almost ready to begin the insurrection, but you hear a knock on the door. More recruits for the blood God perhaps? You unlock the door and peer open. You see a man in strange looking clothes and an I on his chest.
"Hello 'eretics!"
You look up and see a gigantic machine towering over you. There is a trail of destroyed hab blocks and buildings. How did it even get down here? This is the underhive!
Then it lets out a roar, and it's the last thing you ever hear.
I guess
That comes with a killteam
soon
Yet
I doubt this army be in 11th
also
the rotation is
so fucking weird for KT
because they're explictly still updating the rules and giving regular balance changes
for the KT's "out of rotation"
just no tournament
yeah
so like
why even ahve the rotation in the first place
is my question
its such an odd choice
also rules will be updated less frequently whatever that means
4 degens screaming vacuum capsule carving right through your cp wearing prisoner outfits
tournament
okay
but most tournaments aren't run by GW
and they aren't using the rotation rules
so

it's so they can put less effort balancing rules
I mean
not really lol
they already don't do a ton for KT

We get like
the quarterly slate and thats it
i garantee you the rules for "retired" teams will be unbalanced as hell
Oh yeha anyone excited for the idoneth reveals around the corner?
I highly doubt it
because Legends is literally balanced fine this edition
lol
Yes
they need it lol
we'll see
yes
Daemons don't really count. Mainly talking about like ghosts that were people that
Died
Instead of being birthed out of some chaos God
Uhh
Yeah there’s an audio drama about it
Yes, they do exist. They appeared in the 4th Uriel ventress novel
Yeah. Lotara counts
Kinda
The apparitions of her
Although I do wonder how much if it is an echo of the past and how much of it is like
Her
But ig that's the question that's being proposed
True
it has some of the traits of Lotara
I'd say the horrifying flesh mass and ghost controlling the conqueror's true bridge are Lotara still
even if the origina Lotara is long dead biologically she lives on
in whatever state this is
I do like how Kharn the entire time was basically like
"Oh Khorne fucking dammit I have to interact with another- Heyyy Lotara (#91)!"
Ah yes, chaos-made horrors within my comprehension
My favorite
ghosts are warp apparitions or something
Lore dudes and dudettes, a quick lore check.
Has it ever been confirmed that 40k era IoM cannot manufacture the Solar Aux armour?
Or is it just something they have the schematics to, but mothballed?
it has not been confirmed they cannot manufacture it, if anything its likely they still can but simply don't do it Enmass as the Solar Auxilia no longer exists beyond the Saturine Hoplites
Ok, so it still makes sense if a RT has a copy of it somewhere and manufactures it in very limited numbers for her own house troops. Thx
(Using a mix of Navis Kill team and Solar Aux minis for my planned Imperial Agnets collection)
It wouldn’t be that crazy no
