a gigantic fucking size that looks like something out of a hentai

Even the statue of david flaccid gets big when scaling up.

we really don't need to talk about primarch dicks

Pardon me for making you jerk off to such different things.

That question just came in my head. I was reading a fanfic comic about G-man and that Yvraine

shadow plover
#

... of course

#

I wonder if you really meant castration or just sterilization

dusky scroll
#

I actually meant sterilization. I just forgot the word for it.

shadow plover
#

I thought so, castration is a bit more extreme

A…very weird lore question but one that isn’t touched upon too much.
How much - or how little - does Imperium orthodoxy frown upon dyed hair of unnatural colours?
Or, more specifically, dyed hair by people in positions of power (such as a Rogue Trader)?

Like, I am aware gangsters get away with it mostly, but that is because they are, well, gangsters…

dusk patrol
#

There’s no rule

#

Literally just, depends on the world

median star
#

outside of like maybe guard regiments i dont think anyone would really care at all especially a rogue trader as theyre second to only and the emperor and inquisitor and neither i dont think would give af either

dusk patrol
#

Like for example, the most famous SoB order dye their hair white

#

Generally we see gangers do it but we also see it with nobles and RTs

#

It’s whatever you want it to be

raven stone
#

I see, thanks for confirming.
Been thinking about how the colour palettes would work for my RT/Inquisitor.

dapper gyro
#

Even guardmen can dye their hair if the regiment allows it.

dusk patrol
#

It just depends, boring answer but its common for a reason

median star
#

at most itd go as far as some random inquisitor trying to piece together if your hair color might indicate you as a follower of chaos probably

#

hmm red hair lots a khorne cultist might be something funny happening here

dusk patrol
#

There’s definitely some people it would raise eyebrows with but other places it could easily be in fashion

opaque coyote
dapper gyro
#

Nah, Cadians used to have purple warp eyes.

median star
#

i dont think that was by choice

opaque coyote
dapper gyro
#

It doesn't mean they worship chaos

opaque coyote
#

Although you might get some weird looks as a sister if you have like

#

idk

#

blue colored hair instead of white

median star
#

it might be considered a type of warp corruption tbh

celest dome
#

The Cadian one ? Yes that's due to the proximity of the Eye of Terror

median star
#

so did the nightlords ever even try to put themselves back together after the heresy or were they all pretty much content with being fractured warbands

shadow plover
#

they did reunite at least once after

#

or at least everyone who made it to the location in time

#

when they all invaded a single almost forgotten imperial world just to reacquire a legion artifact

misty vector
#

The recording right?

shadow plover
#

ye

#

additionally if I remember correctly, The Prophet (the current one) has foreseen a reunion and he strives to achieve that

dusk patrol
#

But we haven't seen it yet.

#

Probably short lived knowing them

median star
#

also sevatarion was still never found right

shadow plover
#

nope

median star
#

realistically though if they do reunite are they going to have any other goals then skin ppl alive and be dickheads part 2

dusk patrol
#

Yeah Sev is still in the dark on what his ultimate fate was

#

I think ADB has a short in the new scouring short story book they're doing?

#

Which might be Sev

#

Eh nvm

#

Probably not

#

Sick art tho

I like how there are two Warhound-class titans guarding the gate.

would anything on terra still have scars from the siege or were they pretty on hand with making sure that all got cleaned up nicely

Insane gate tech

sacred bluff
#

Okay

#

Let's say i'm entertaining the idea of potentially building a world eaters army for tabletop

#

Completely melee focused

#

How would I build them in a way to maximize their movement and close the distance quick

shadow plover
#

transports

#

rhinos and land raiders

sacred bluff
#

And what sort of units can I add to them, that aren't WE, that would give good buffs for melee and movement

sacred bluff
#

But apparently it's a lot of points

shadow plover
#

sadly not allowed for 40k World Eaters

sacred bluff
#

So just rhinos

shadow plover
#

and land raiders

sacred bluff
#

and land raiders

shadow plover
#

ye

sacred bluff
#

Any units buff their movement?

shadow plover
#

I'm not too familiar with their leader characters but some might have something to help with that

#

Lord Invocatus gives his unit a 6" scout movement before the first round so that'll help

#

World Eaters Lord on a Juggernaut can reroll all movement based rolls

sacred bluff
#

Looking at these

shadow plover
#

angron has an aura that gives +1 to charge rolls

#

but master of executions doesn't help with movement

queen laurel
shadow plover
#

Blessings of Khorne gives you 2" extra movement on any doubles too

sacred bluff
shadow plover
#

double 6+ or triple 4+ gives you advance and charge

sacred bluff
#

Must haves are Angron, Lord Invocatus

shadow plover
#

keep in mind Lord Invocatus can't go inside a rhino

#

but it's a solid choice nevertheless what I've gathered

sacred bluff
#

How do relics work

#

is like a card

shadow plover
#

relics?

#

like the enhancements?

sacred bluff
shadow plover
#

you pay the points cost and the chosen character unit gains those bonuses

I haven't looked at the mtx store in a month or something

yeah you only missed like 2 refreshes then

I just check every reload for cosmetic refs

It refreshes like what

every 2 weeks

they basically saw how they operated and copied em to fight orks

tight stratus
#

Amazing

storm jungle
#

Yeah google the Ork Hunters and read up on em they are pretty good

Boy that stress about to obliterate you

Yeah this is probably an assigned psyker that is suppose to "copy" the regiment.

because again this is GW approved

To be fair

Or some shit

storm jungle

their description always explains it

queen laurel

minus the Veteran; the Ogryn, Psyker and Zealot are always the attachments to a regiment copying its style.

# small grail Malice or smthin

Malal was a Chaos God in fantasy, though he gets removed in a copyright dispute pretty early on, he wasn't very strong but still had followers
Malice is a minor chaos god in 40k, he gets summoned in a short story, vaguely the same vibes but not the same and far, far weaker

queen laurel
#

Basically what ed said

rose thorn
#

Virgin malice vs Chad belakor

small grail
#

i saw some images he had like a wendigo esque god which is cool as hell

crystal forum
#

idk why GW bothers keeping malice around

green loom
#

I mean there's not a lot of effort behind it

#

It has like

#

A short story

crystal forum
#

would be easier to just not do that

rose thorn
#

I don’t think he has been mentioned since 6th edition

small grail
#

hes a god of anarchy chaos and revenge i think the chaos bit and revenge bit is covered by khorne kinda

crystal forum
#

i thought so too but the lexi quotes "the labyrinth"

green loom
#

Chaos gods overlapping doesn't matter

crystal forum
#

can't get a date on when that short story was published

that's still a fifth chaos god

he was like a wendigo right?

small grail

He isn't

#

He gets summoned by killing like

#

10 people

queen laurel
green loom
#

Or something

#

And dies in the same story iirc

small grail
#

it wud be more creepyy if he was like a mix of a owl and a leechj

queen laurel
#

Yeah at minimum he's probably like a Greater daemon

crystal forum
#

why does he get his name listed next to the actual gods in the lexi REEE

queen laurel
#

Because he is still a minor chaos god

green loom
#

He's still an independant notable entity ig

queen laurel
#

He is the god of anarchy

small grail
#

guess cuz of anarchy

#

thats not a common god

#

i think

crystal forum
#

that's like listing the ancient greek pantheon and including "gary" next to Zeus

small grail
#

im guessing bro

#

i just heard of him like today

Nah it's more like one of the random gods no one cares about

I mean, anyone working under the Inquisition would have to do 21st century questionable things. It’s just a toss of luck as to how many innocents they do have to trample over to get to the actual threats (which, given Chaos Cults and GS Cults, are devastatingly real).

The lucky ones don’t get the wrong target too often. The “good” ones would probably mentally punish themselves somehow. The actual sadistic, bad inquisitors…don’t even feel guilty about it.

storm jungle

to be fair its not even "questionable"

#

even Inquisitors that try not to be heavyhanded will eventually have to do these things.

they are probably on the top tier for one of the most thankless jobs in the Imperium

It’s odd because I do plan on writing an Inquisitor that would feel guilty for targeting the wrong people, but obviously he still does them.
He is definitely getting some sort of weird self-penance thing.
In his (40k altered morality) mind, torture and stuff is fine if you actually did catch a Chaos/GS cultist
But if he gets the wrong target, he alone is responsible for being inept.

It’s more fair to say Eisenhorn does try to care, at least, but circumstances forced him to be crazy radical. Not helped by him jumping the gun.

For example…||oh, I don’t know, flying to confront a random heretic without having done the bloody research that said heretic HAS A TITAN AT HIS DISPOSAL MAYBE!?||

I'm just saying, when it comes to "radical" inquisitors, Eisenhorn isn't really bad and still fights in the name of the Emperor (even though he's extremis diabolus)

they all think they know best

dusk patrol

That’s my goat

storm jungle
#

postng Kryptoniteman is CRAZY

raven stone
#

Also, technically speaking - if an Inquisitor wisens up to the fact that they cannot always save everyone (which is a very different concept from “protecting the Imperium and ensuring its survival”, since, you know, that is the entire polity)

Ironically, in trying to not be “fully heroic”, they might actually be able to mentally tune themselves better.

(Yes I have been thinking about the fic for a long time, don’t ask)

dusk patrol
#

Hmm, yes I think Kryptmann’s censure was justified, but only for not going far enough.

Heldane genuinely went "I'm better than the emperor, he didn't see that you can operate in shades of grey to accomplish your goals"

They are probably one of the best RPG/DnD-esque Original Character examples in 40k.

You gotta love inquisitor Emil Darkhammer, because his name is so stupid

storm jungle

Emil or Darkhammer

Emil is a normal enough name here

dusk patrol

Emil is ok

Clarence Genocidius

But yeah Darkhammer is

A choice

storm jungle

it was the mid 2000's

I like Kryptmann a lot, he’s got a great “cold evil mastermind” look with the round glasses

storm jungle

my favorite thing is like

dusk patrol

And he looks like a Kryptmann

storm jungle

his strategy worked, but it was also the biggest act of self-inflicted genocide since the Horus Heresy

which is hilarious

I hope we get a model for him eventually

His fault, too many syllables in his name

we need him back

and his model updated

raven stone

Maybe GW didn’t like their character being meme’d as CrazyPantsOff either.
Knowing GW brand control.

dusk patrol
#

I would like him back

#

Hopefully with a better uh

#

Facelift

storm jungle

💀

storm jungle
#

most C-List characters

#

he was entirely made because Gallagher made a cool sketch

#

and it is indeed cool

#

but that was kind of it, hes Generic Evil Inquisitor

dusk patrol
#

A lot of stuff is made for basic reasons like “that’s neat”

storm jungle
#

^

#

ESPECIALLY back in the day

dusk patrol
#

Like so many things are driven by just “this guy got passionate about this idea and it worked out”

raven stone
#

…GW should not be afraid to keep referencing retired miniature characters in the lore.
Maybe even have them resurface as BL collectibles.

storm jungle
#

it was mostly GW having fun and letting people get creative with unrelated source books and shit.

Nowadays you cant do that as much because people kinda have more demand for mainline models.

dusk patrol
#

They do

raven stone
#

(Why am I teaching GW how to skin people for money…)

dusk patrol
#

He just was never brought up much lol

#

Like I can’t stress how

storm jungle
#

again it depends on the popularity

dusk patrol
#

He really didn’t do a lot

#

He’s a fun model and character

raven stone
#

Ah ok, fair enough.

dusk patrol
#

He didn’t have a ton of lore

storm jungle

Coteaz was also boring but he works well as like-

Also yeah karamazov was like a fucking meme

but i digress

arctic talon

“I FUCKING KILL PEOPLE”

Yeah like i said.

That’s his entire character

He’s kind of one note

He had like

This isn't a joke. You always hear about those 1 in a million odds where people drive off a cliff and had 0.0000001% chance to survive but they miraculously did. Well I feel like I'm that guy. There's no real stats to back this up, I just know I've always been built different. Perhaps I would've battled my way to a teleporter to get myself away from the fighting. Or I escape just in time by piloting a small ship through the Chaos fleet before they could spot me.

In other words, I just feel like my odds, personally, would've been different.
