[arctic talon]

the constant strings on higher diffculties is nice because it never lets up for tension tbh

[sacred ginkgo]

They’re the only faction I have the cape for

[arctic talon]

I have the cape for Illuminate and bugs

[sacred ginkgo]

Though I didn’t play much

[arctic talon]

Cyborgs are obnoxious lol

I hate the stupid IFVs

[sacred ginkgo]

There’s a reason they’re done last

[arctic talon]

I love tank that can instakill and call reinforcments

and also has like 12 fucking people in it

[sacred ginkgo]

I need to learn commando so I can just obliterate them

[arctic talon]

ngl

I almost wish they didn't implement the illuminate in 2 yet

they're not fucking done lol

they're barely a 1/3rd of a faction with none of their actual gimmicks from 1

[sacred ginkgo]

Yeah not by a long shot

[arctic talon]

unless you count having personal energy shields(I don't)

[sacred ginkgo]

No cloakers

No snipers

No walls

[arctic talon]

no councilers

wall spam is gona be horrifying in 2

lol

[sacred ginkgo]

I’ll live without control fuckery thank you very much

[arctic talon]

If they add in councilers I don't think they'll invert movement controls

I think they will invert fire/aim + stratagem inputs though

LOL

[sacred ginkgo]

I think EMS balls would be likely

[arctic talon]

true

Illuminate lack all the stuff that make them interesting rn tbh

[sacred ginkgo]

The height of technological accomplishment re geared for war when I crack out my 7.62 machine gun

[arctic talon]

LOL

[sacred ginkgo]

I should not be able to sweep an entire faction with More Gun

[arctic talon]

tbf they did lack heavy armor in 1

but they had other bullshit to make up for it lOL

[sacred ginkgo]

They didn’t

But yeah that

[arctic talon]

Obelisk?

Obelisk was light armor most of the time tbf

since it needed to crack itself open

[sacred ginkgo]

That was meant to be me agreeing

[arctic talon]

oh

I'm dumb

lol

[sacred ginkgo]

So am I

You could absolutely go rounds per minute in 1, but you actually had to find targets and keep distance

Their mediums are very content to keep distance and their fodder just gets eaten by anything with a fire rate

And the tripods are slow as shit

[arctic talon]

yeah

[opaque coyote]

AFTER 40,000 YEARS

[crisp heath]

He must be a fake fan then

[languid meadow]

true now give the amazon series to Ian watson

[dusk patrol]

This has been news for

Months

How are we doing old memes on fucking pregnancy announcements

its like a 6 month window from when people announce it

[late osprey]

LOL

"expecting? bro that expectations been FULFILLED for like 5 years"

[dusk patrol]

She’s probably gonna have the baby in a few weeks iirc when it was announced

Wait

She gave birth in January, dear God

That’s what I remembered

[raven stone]

😅

morning chat

Meanwhile I am trying to evaluate whether someone is a romance scammer lol

[crisp heath]

Whats a romance scammer

[dusk patrol]

Message you out of the blue and have an attractive pfp generally

[crisp heath]

Oh

[dusk patrol]

“hey baby I was looking at your profile” type shit

[crisp heath]

Od tell them You probably need to get your eyes checked hehehe

[raven stone]

Well in my case it’s more the fact that it is a Romanian, known to be active in these fields…
But on the other hand she is already in the UK for 10+ years supposedly, so that is one less thing to scam (money for visa)…
Then again, I can’t verify her profile beyond the dating app itself…

[crisp heath]

You're actually talking to them damn that's some balls I would be scared it's someone I know lmao

[raven stone]

The trick is…
(1) Not to get emotionally invested in the act of texting. Your brain likes to think constant texting is intimacy. It…frankly isn’t, not until you actually meet.
(2) Bail as soon as anyone starts asking you for money for anything. Usually they are really only after you giving your money willingly to them.
(3) Never travel to regions outside of your country (or knowledge, depending on your confidence) to meet them. Always meet where you know for sure easy access to help for you is available, and you have physical routes of retreat.

Ultimately despite my suspicions, I don’t want to immediately accuse them of being a scammer, but it is always good to have an escape if it turns out she really IS a scammer.

[late osprey]

basically yeah just use common sense, it is also considerably safer as a man unless you have 0 survival instinct at all

as a guy worst case you just get blackmailed or something

frankly if your first date idea is anything in public then you're already exercising common sense

[mint tundra]

hey guys, if any players from Türkiye are interested in WH40K lore, check this YT channel out: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCznvaheOfZG29ZcJBNU5Hwg

[dapper gyro]

@storm jungle Can you test the water on this one?

[raven stone]

Also, never send compromising photos of yourself (it should go without saying but apparently the number of men throwing their “private” pics around is just…)

Yea, right now, we are chatting world history, so the worst that happens is she cuts and run after getting bored of the history chat 😅

[pine wedge]

this is always a scam.

[rocky gale]

Yea, there's no real people on the internet

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/homer-homer-simpson-simpsons-worst-day-of-your-life-so-far-bart-gif-11689059539835963602

One day I’ll find my princess of obscure nobility who also posts bikini photos online messaging random men for assistance

[late osprey]

hence the part about the blackmail

[dusk patrol]

But they just need my social security number and debit card so they can get their money from their rich family

Also Google store cards

[green loom]

I don't even get the scammers bruh

[dusk patrol]

I recently had an uptick on discord.

[rocky gale]

You typically get them in you exist in pretty much any public server

[dusk patrol]

Yeah

[rocky gale]

Or they might just be people genuinely trying to be my friend

The worst kind of scammer

[spring cairn]

deny all friend requests

be immune to scammers

[viral halo]

@vagrant fox I read Dark Age in one day

759 pages

I don't think my soul will recover

[queen laurel]

bro

what the zog was you thinking

[viral halo]

my soul hurts

What a fantastic book that was

[queen laurel]

welp that's what you get

759 pages a single day

[viral halo]

Took about 5-6 hours

[queen laurel]

you'z built different

[viral halo]

My gf was like "What the fuck"

we were just sitting and reading

very funny

[vagrant fox]

It seems you encounter only light resistance 🫡

[viral halo]

So true

[storm jungle]

[vagrant fox]

freakin uuh hark deez

[dapper gyro]

Love is not real, it is primitive temptation.

[sacred bluff]

One I am glad to have 😌

[tough haven]

Some of the best things are deep and primal in nature, does that make them less valid?

[dapper gyro]

Is that why it is accompanied by violence sometimes?

[rose thorn]

The idoneth update must be fucking huge considering the complete lack of AOS news as of late

[queen laurel]

Yeah and the ko as well

The sky stunties

[rose thorn]

The KO update is gonna be revolutionary for the army lmao

God knows the terrain but endless spells could make half of the heroes viable

It’s like

[queen laurel]

Maybe they will actually get ground vehicles

[rose thorn]

Just brokk admiral chem and code right you use?

If even chem

[queen laurel]

Hey the airships are great but i wouldn't mind some tanks or buggys

[rose thorn]

I mean lore wise they can’t really use them

[queen laurel]

Yeah most of their things are designed to work in the air because that's where they live

[rose thorn]

Maybe liek, flying bikers

Would be fun

Kharadron cav

[queen laurel]

Oh that's a nice idea

[rose thorn]

Ko jet skis lmao

[queen laurel]

Yeah but they already have like those right

On the role anyway

The

Gunhauler

[rose thorn]

Gunhauler is stills huge ship

Okay it’s like

A 2 man ship

[queen laurel]

Like fast and good for hit and runs

Unless you're thinking of a battering ram skybike

It's just one guy with like a sky bike with saws in front of it

[young pecan]

Why are ogres so boring and annoying to fight

[queen laurel]

In total war or

[young pecan]

Yuh

Yay 40 units of ogre bulls

[queen laurel]

Well that's just the ai for you

[young pecan]

AoE spells affect them disproportionately HORRIBLY because they're such small units sizes

[queen laurel]

Ogres genuinely one of the factions that require good players to really even

Work late game

Like they are literally targets

[young pecan]

And single target spells are throwing because lmao there's 40 units

[queen laurel]

For every faction they are in

[queen laurel]

Be lucky that's what you're dealing with

You wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of a stack of iron guts

With the dlc? If they get their hands on those new units you're going to suffer away more

[young pecan]

I think I just need to play safer against them because Ku'gath does not go into them well

[queen laurel]

Yeah uh

[opaque coyote]

https://youtu.be/lUwTP8IXdzE?si=cbgpmxC9TCBRTUWk

[young pecan]

The faction of AoE vs. the faction of 5 dudes per unit, all with high health

[queen laurel]

You want to have a chance of winning against them as nurgle

You need to bring your

Anti large units

Which funnelly enough plague ogres anti large work well

But unlocking them is going to take a while so

You need to expand away from the mountains of mourn

[young pecan]

I was going to say

[queen laurel]

Greasus is basically disgusting with his confederation

[young pecan]

Best I got is anti-infantry

Which, 40 ogre bull units are all infantry but Idk if that still applies since they're monstrous

[young pecan]

Funny enough, Greasus is the one that GOT confederated

[celest dome]

Anti-large is the thing against them

[queen laurel]

Yeah it's like the most effective way of killing them

[celest dome]

iirc

[young pecan]

By Sons of the Mountain

[queen laurel]

Without anto large good luck

[queen laurel]

Greasus always out confederates most of the time anyway

But that is pretty funny

[young pecan]

Yeah my main expansion was into the mountain

Dwarves and ogres teaming up to violate me

[queen laurel]

It does offer a lot of settlements but then again

Ogres can basically bully your army if you only have infantry

And have no way of dealing with them

Like your frontline will be obliterated by a head on collision with them

[young pecan]

Blight boil spell is like the only thing that affects them

[queen laurel]

And of all of them are low mass infantry

They're going to paint the ground green with your blood

[young pecan]

I've experienced this now 🫠

I might consider restarting my campaign

[queen laurel]

Yeah and to be honest you're playing ku gath

[young pecan]

That expedition really fucked me and put Ku'gath way out of position

[queen laurel]

You have to deal with an old man that can turn zombies into an unstoppable horde

And incredibly angry chaos dwarves on the other direction

[young pecan]

Thank god I obliterated Helman instantly with the help of local rats

Idk what they did but Ku'gath start doesn't feel fucking impossible now

[queen laurel]

The new dlc definitely help

Easier access to plagues and stuff

But my main man is grimgor so

[celest dome]

What is the new dlc

[queen laurel]

Everytime i pray that Tamurkhan gets wiped or i have to deal with him

[queen laurel]

I was talking about

Tamurkhan

Which is relatively new

[celest dome]

oh

make sense

[queen laurel]

But yeah new mechanics and new units definitely help

But my god

Tamurkhan

Is fucked

To fight as grimgor

Because he gets Bubolos pretty early

And he becomes a giant monster that is anti-infantry

Guess what

Grimgor is infantry

You can guess what is going to happen

[young pecan]

Man I love the new plague system

It used to be this annoying grindfest of spamming symptoms to unlock new ones, which you barely could afford to do because infection and economy sucked

But now econ feels better for whatever reason, and the plague creation feels awesome now and is not what it was before

[rocky gale]

"The Ursarax are not full-blown automata so much as a jumble of a living soldier’s important internal bits encased in a hard shell and strapped to a jetpack."

https://tenor.com/view/bender-futurama-neat-wow-gif-5744318

[arctic talon]

Yeah they’re just like thallax

Same setup

Just different armor

[dusk patrol]

Warcrimes with jetpacks

[opaque coyote]

Oh hey cool war crimes

Although I have to ask why don't they just take the brain

Like does the robot need guts

[young pecan]

Maybe they haven't learned how to remove guts from brain?

Or maybe the movement of the rest of the body requires biological mass in the center?

[arctic talon]

Yes

There’s some body functions required for the lorica thallax armor

[storm jungle]

It has a shit-bag in there

[arctic talon]

The skeleton isn’t necessary though

But the nervous system, heart, skull

A few other organs

Are all necessary

It’s likely the lorica thallax is some really fucked up long term survival armor

The whole internal reactor that works forever, constant stream of drugs to keep you functioning, 360 degree vision

Ect.

[rose thorn]

someone with some time to burn i have an idea

this but with a flesh hound

[arctic talon]

Lol

[storm jungle]

lmaooo

[dapper gyro]

And yet, the SM stuck with dreadnought.

[arctic talon]

The dreadnought doesn’t torture you

Also you put a normal person

Into a thallax/ursarax

You don’t put a mutilated person in

You mutilate a person to put in

It’s a pretty complex process

[storm jungle]

I mean

[arctic talon]

The dreadnought doesn’t intentionally keep you in pain and reward you with pain killers when you tear an orphan in half

Is that better

[celest dome]

So it's closer to a Killa Kan

[dapper gyro]

...

[arctic talon]

Yeah honestly it’s closer to a killa kan

[arctic talon]

There’s a difference okay

You can’t just put someone who got blown in half into a thallax

You gotta extract the entire nervous system

Several organs, the skull and heart

Brain

And then implement the cybernetics before you put them into the lorica thallax

[fallow rover]

Headcanon: the vast majority (maybe like 95%) of strike teams sent out by grendyl die horribly with nothing to show for it, that's why they're sent to do stuff that would be REALLY nice if it got done, but won't crush the war effort if they fail. And the player character(s) coming back at all, let alone consistently getting shit done, is why they're treated with such reverence by the crew of the mourningstar (the regular soldiers i mean, the ones who go "you're so cool <333" when you walk past)

[arctic talon]

Not a head canon

[fallow rover]

This might all be fully canon or heavily implied but it's just something i thought

[arctic talon]

It’s literally true

Yeah

The vast majority of reject die horribly

[fallow rover]

I mean it puts it into perspective in a cool way imo.

[rocky gale]

Yea, pretty much every other group dies, we're the canon group that keeps winning

[arctic talon]

Imo it’s the like

[fallow rover]

The average player at darktide is still a legend in lore

[arctic talon]

2 of each personality + gender combo

And then the 3 ogryns

Those like 21?

Are the rejects who canonically have gotten this far

[fallow rover]

I was just thinking cause like theres absolutely no way you would deploy only 4 guys against a veteran fighting force like the traitor guard if you actually desperately needed something done

[arctic talon]

Tbh regarding the like numbers we face in game

They’re totally off

Regarding like ratios

The Moebian 6th would be extinct

[fallow rover]

And like since you're the protagonists you make mincemeat of the soldiers but in lore they absolutely are supposed to be an elite fighting force, these aren't minimum wage mall cops, these are like marines imbued with the power of sniffles satan

[arctic talon]

LOL

But for most deployments I’d say the rejects would mainly be fighting poxwalkers and cultists

[fallow rover]

Fair i'd agree

[arctic talon]

If the 6th show up it’s a bad time for the average reject team

[fallow rover]

Id agree yee. I feel like the most realistic numbers would be like, uprising

[storm jungle]

Also keep in mind at this point in the game we specifically get sent on missions only we can do

so its not even launch-state missions they send any rando hobo at

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[sacred ginkgo]

You don’t call the fresh out of training idiots for the cathedral with then green indoor lightning storm above it

[storm jungle]

^

[arctic talon]

the new missions are all actual important operations

[storm jungle]

Yeah they specifically handpick you for it

the command staff says as much

[arctic talon]

The Moebian steel one, rolling steel

[storm jungle]

and they only happen 1 time canonically

[arctic talon]

And the cathedral one

[sacred ginkgo]

We were handpicked as far back as orthus right

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

Every mission post-commsplex has happened once

only Dreyko is a repeat one with a Phase 2 mission edit

since the first incursions were us studying the tree

[sacred ginkgo]

Foundry plex?

They altered the dialogue to include Moebian steel

[storm jungle]

Oh right that too lol

but its like a handful

[fallow rover]

Also more headcanons:

the inquisitorial strike teams you play as in game could beat titus from space marine 2 in a 4-1

The male and female loose cannons are siblings who have like, two impish little gremlins plotting mischief sorta energy together, and the professionals are also siblings, but they hate each other and have a rivalry

[sacred ginkgo]

Easily

[storm jungle]

Titus loses armor after like 1 claw swipe, a single knife zealot would kill an entire space marine tactical squad 💀

[fallow rover]

Headcanons: > Wolfer was actually a nice guy before nurgle inserted his brainworms

[sacred ginkgo]

A veteran can equip stuff that wipes an SM in every slot

Kraks, plasma, PS

[storm jungle]

I mean

"nice" by Imperial terms probably

[hallow basin]

I'm pretty sure Martyr skulls tell us he was super tough before

tough but fair or whatever

[storm jungle]

Yeah that

hes your average knucklehead commanding officer

[fallow rover]

Nice by imperial terms is still saintly compared to the average inquisitor

[sacred ginkgo]

He also gave personal officer training right

[storm jungle]

I mean

[fallow rover]

Should've specified Imm still doing headcanons here

[arctic talon]

Titus would explode to some of our gear lol

[storm jungle]

Imperial Guardsmen can be absolutely as worse too lol

[arctic talon]

Or the Psyker

[dusk patrol]

They’re capable of doing it, doesn’t mean they can, it’s a long shot.

[arctic talon]

Based

I love killing children

[storm jungle]

They definitely can considering space marines can die to about anything in books just like anyone. Powerscaling in this universe is not really worth the argument.

[fallow rover]

Well they're people

[dusk patrol]

I said they can

[storm jungle]

shut up christopher

[dusk patrol]

They’re the odds aren’t in their favor though

[storm jungle]

I mean

I wouldnt exactly call them "people"

[fallow rover]

I meant the guardsmen

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/oppenheimer-truman-president-truman-gif-6105593166045915044

[fallow rover]

I'm just saying they're capable if cruelty

[hallow basin]

In 40k the only thing limiting your inner cruelty is your ability to commit warcrimes

[fallow rover]

Space marines make no sense if you're assessing them based on what's said in xenos codexes tbf

[fallow rover]

Pfff

True

[vagrant fox]

warhammer don't make sense half the time anyway

[dusk patrol]

Damn you mean to tell me 40k isn’t fully logical and you have to handwave some stuff

That’s crazy

[storm jungle]

I mean

xenos codexes dont say anything about space marines

[dusk patrol]

You’re the first person to come to this conclusion I think

[fallow rover]

The judge zealots are the male and female zealots on the front page when you make a new character

[fallow rover]

I meant like, stuff like "tau pulse rifles can punch straight through a space marine's armor"

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-funny-wtf-wth-jesse-gif-17336046

[fallow rover]

Headcanons bruv

[dusk patrol]

I prefer if we just do a cannon to your head

[storm jungle]

Well yeah its plasma

tau just kinda forget to fight

[fallow rover]

Can u not bro

[hallow basin]

https://tenor.com/view/true-morgan-freeman-truth-squidward-mr-krabs-gif-11535664430756306586

[fallow rover]

Im just trying to say I agree that 40k makes no sense and rationalising it like that will give you a migraine

[storm jungle]

I was just saying that as a random comment

but yeah

[dusk patrol]

It’s a useless statement

[fallow rover]

Was just using an example

[dusk patrol]

There’s inconsistencies sure and it doesn’t all make sense but you can still discuss it

[storm jungle]

Anyway

[dusk patrol]

Like anything else

[storm jungle]

most people just dont really want to accept it as reality is the thing

you get people being upset about it constantly

[dusk patrol]

It’s just a thought destroying statement, we all know it’s no consistent

[arctic talon]

I mean pulse rifles can pierce power armor lol

[dusk patrol]

It doesn’t add anything

[arctic talon]

That’s like a consistent thing

[dusk patrol]

It’s not always tbf but

[arctic talon]

It’s mostly consistent

[dusk patrol]

Generally they do

[arctic talon]

Even in like imperium focused books yeah

[storm jungle]

When the reality of these statements change from novel to novel its not really worth the debate most of the tim etbh.

[vagrant fox]

The Tau cannot shoot you if you simply grab his gun

[arctic talon]

This box art is always so funny lol

[storm jungle]

it got memed to death and rightfulyl so tbf

[dusk patrol]

Lots of good faces too on it

[storm jungle]

[fallow rover]

Should've specified that powerscaling makes no sense and is inconsistent

[storm jungle]

I do love tho like how tau do nothing but almost lose in every single artwork they are in

its such a funny trope

[arctic talon]

Not really

[storm jungle]

it works on WWE wrestling logic

[storm jungle]

Im literally

[arctic talon]

They’re winning in a lot of their art

[dusk patrol]

Ok we all know that, it’s just fun to discuss stuff

[storm jungle]

gonna go gather it

[arctic talon]

Pls no

[storm jungle]

Then why did you say "not really"

[arctic talon]

I mean

[storm jungle]

explain yourself

[vagrant fox]

post the tau losing, fuel my ego

[arctic talon]

Because I can think of like

Multiple they’re winning in

Like the Codex cover, and that one other piece with the csm

And uh

I don’t remember

Fuck

[storm jungle]

LMAO

[fallow rover]

I like the energy here. It looks less like the sm is about to kill the tau and more like he's a disappointed parent who just found his kid playing with a knife

[storm jungle]

Elite i got like

95gb of official 40k art

[arctic talon]

💀

[storm jungle]

trust me when i say they get annihilated in a lot of it

[storm jungle]

A girl needs hobbies

[storm jungle]

to give you an idea

my space marine folder of art is so big

it literally lags

[dusk patrol]

Just off like five seconds on Google

[fallow rover]

Good analogy

[dusk patrol]

There’s more I know

[storm jungle]

yeah thats google

and handpicked

[arctic talon]

Tbh I like evenly matched art the most

For like

Faction art

[spare osprey]

jesus

[storm jungle]

KIND of

[dusk patrol]

Well yeah but the statement was “I do love tho like how tau do nothing but almost lose in every single artwork they are in”

[storm jungle]

the general rule is uh

them firing point blank

nothing happens

theres some rare exceptions obviously

[storm jungle]

I'll gather em in a bit

[arctic talon]

The horde

[storm jungle]

im watching batman with a friend atm lol

[vagrant fox]

art collector, is this from the 10th ed eldar codex

[storm jungle]

9th

[arctic talon]

It’s older

Yeah

[storm jungle]

you can tell because its too clean

[arctic talon]

It’s 8th

Iirc

Not 9th

[vagrant fox]

wack

[arctic talon]

It’s using the old khaine model

Er mini

[vagrant fox]

I should, uh, acquire some codexes for perusing

[arctic talon]

It’s based on the forgeworld khaine mini

You can tell bcs he’s so slim

• the chest decoration

[storm jungle]

its 9th

[dusk patrol]

I know there’s art where they lose, that wasn’t the claim or what Elite was disagreeing with

[storm jungle]

trust me, im autistic as hell with this

[storm jungle]

I dont care man 💀

[dusk patrol]

The point is, there’s a lot of art they’re evenly matched or winning too

Well then don’t say it smh

[storm jungle]

"almost"

[dusk patrol]

Miss Information smh

[storm jungle]

emphasis on almost

you nitpicking little shit

[dusk patrol]

I found six pieces and there was a lot more within ten seconds

They have a lot of art where they’re doing fine

[arctic talon]

Why the fuck is it based on the older mini

Wtf lol

[fallow rover]

More headcanonsssssssss

The bodyguard ogryn on his off hours draws pictures of his adventures with the other rejects with crayons (that he also eats)

[dusk patrol]

I’m gonna draw a picture of your demise with a crayon

At my hands

[hallow basin]

what are the crayons made out of, I wonder

[dusk patrol]

Crayon

Duh

[fallow rover]

Corpse starch

[dusk patrol]

Should be a crayoff for when my nephew comes over

[vagrant fox]

waste of corpse starch, make the crayons from industrial runoff with some coagulants

[fallow rover]

Settle down lil bro

[dusk patrol]

Bro doesn’t know how to not mark up the table

[fallow rover]

Even better

[dusk patrol]

I’m not little or your bro

[hallow basin]

are you though

[dusk patrol]

I wish

Flights would suck a lot less

No leg room

[arctic talon]

Glad I’m slightly below average height

I get more leg room

[dusk patrol]

Lucky bastards

Being tall is overrated

[arctic talon]

My uncle is very tall

[vagrant fox]

Glad I'm average height to the exact molecular level, everything is made for me

[fallow rover]

The brawler ogryn eats crayons habitually

[arctic talon]

Flights are hell for him lol

[dusk patrol]

You die sooner, no leg room, back issues cause you gotta bend over all the time

Nothing fits right

[arctic talon]

Brawler eats the slab and the tin

[dusk patrol]

Everything is slightly too small

[arctic talon]

Doesn’t even remove the tin

[fallow rover]

Absolutely

[arctic talon]

Boils the whole goddamn thing after opening it

[dusk patrol]

And everyone makes the same jokes

[arctic talon]

How’s the weather up there

[dusk patrol]

“How’s the Weather up there?”

[arctic talon]

Gottem

[vagrant fox]

See, that's why I ask how's your spine lanklet instead

[dusk patrol]

“Did you play basketball?”

Idk do you play mini golf?

I should have been born in medieval times

I could have died pillaging some town as Ulfar the Really Tall One at 21

[fallow rover]

Bodyguard ogryn and male seer psyker play some m41 equivalent to checkers or chess or something on their off time. Also thinking they share a hab space

[arctic talon]

LOL

[vagrant fox]

I would've been born in the same rough 100 square kilometers and I would have died of starvation at either younger than 6 or in my mid 30s

[fallow rover]

Seer loses every time and rationalises it to himself by saying like "oh I'm just letting him win" but he knows that he's not

[dusk patrol]

I never get to be the little spoon either

I am a victim of my own height

But it is nice reaching the top shelf so I got that going for me

[arctic talon]

I literally cannot reach the top shelf in grocery stores a lot of the time without getting on my toes

[dusk patrol]

It helps a little with girls too but mostly as a conversation starter

[fallow rover]

Bodyguard has really imprecise movements (i imagine an ogryn playing chess would be like you trying to write on a typewriter with your feet) so he usually accidentally misplaces the pieces and then seer quickly puts them in their rightful place otherwise bg gets really sad and apologetic

[vagrant fox]

First time cracking open Leviathan and I really like how smug this shit looks

[arctic talon]

Regicide seems like a fun board game

If only GW would give us actual rules

Not just chess game with a 40k skin

[dusk patrol]

That’s ridiculous

[storm jungle]

there

god i hate my folders

[dusk patrol]

Do I need to tap the sign again

[storm jungle]

This is a good reaction image

No one said they don’t play in art

its so funny

[dusk patrol]

And I didn’t ask

Smh

[storm jungle]

Shut the fuck up christopher

[dusk patrol]

Death by fudge head

[arctic talon]

And then they died

[lofty mason]

How long is the time between Battlefleet Gothic 2 (13th Black Crusade) and Space Marine 2?

[storm jungle]

I HATE this artwork

its so goofy looking

everyone is like a frozen ragdoll

[fallow rover]

Brawler has long since eaten all of the pieces to the actual board game, so they make do with little trinkets they find lying around

[arctic talon]

10-15 years, but BFGA2 isn’t exactly canon

[vagrant fox]

I don't know why but this guy is sorta really funny to me

[storm jungle]

hes holding on for stealth

or something idk

[arctic talon]

He might be alive

Is the funniest thing

It’s impaling the power pack + jump pack

[dusk patrol]

I like this one a lot

[outer wave]

I thought that was like a stealth suit plushie the knight had for some reason

[vagrant fox]

Man's just chilling hoping something goes well

[storm jungle]

damn forgot that one

[dusk patrol]

As expected

[fallow rover]

Headcanons: Brawler is dumb BECAUSE of his bonehead implant, not in spite of it, the guys who did it didn't know what they were doing and accidentally fucked up his brain even more

Also, not entirely a headcanon, but I think that bg is probably like. The albert einstein of ogryns. He's mentally 12 years old instead of mentally 5 years old

[dusk patrol]

I gotta start Sil posting

[arctic talon]

Kiryu trying to teach chat room sex workers how to flirt better

[dusk patrol]

Everyone Pauly and Tony posts

[arctic talon]

Also that isn’t a headcanon there’s something horribly wrong with his implant

[dusk patrol]

Not enough Sil posters

[arctic talon]

It’s literally cooking his head

[fallow rover]

Oh rlly? Neat

[arctic talon]

Thankfully he’s an ogryn

So it’s not as bad as it could be

[dusk patrol]

Maybe he’s just that dumb

[arctic talon]

But it literally smells like burning flesh

[storm jungle]

Thats not a headcannon

[arctic talon]

I like to imagine it’s both

[dusk patrol]

The implant is cooking itself trying to make his brain work

[storm jungle]

he outright says its cooking his brain

[arctic talon]

He was stupid + it’s cooking his brain

[dusk patrol]

Too many concussions

[fallow rover]

I love brawler sm

[drifting cloud]

question. is there any space marine chapter called The Iron Brotherhood?

I'm homebrewing a space marine chapter and I wasn't sure if the name was already taken

[dusk patrol]

I do too

But he’s uh

[fallow rover]

Too many tanks headbutted

[arctic talon]

Haven’t heard of a name like that

[dusk patrol]

He’s special even for Ogryns lol

[arctic talon]

For canon chapters

[lofty mason]

How would Darktide fit between these two? Does Darktide set before or after Space Marine 2?

[dusk patrol]

Not that I can recall no

[arctic talon]

Darktide is very early into the indomitus crusade

So before sm2

[dusk patrol]

They’re very close probably though

Maybe a couple years off

SM2 is very recent in the timeline

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[fallow rover]

You might wanna consider changing iron to something else, to avoid confusion with the iron hands and iron warriors, but if your heart's set on iron brotherhood go for it :>

[arctic talon]

Funny 4th tyrannic war

[storm jungle]

Pro tip; when you are making a homebrew faction in 40k, first of all just open google and type:

"40k [your homebrew faction name]"

[dusk patrol]

It’s not clear how long we’ve been on Atoma too

Also: all good names are taken

[storm jungle]

Well kinda

[arctic talon]

Just steal

[storm jungle]

you can do better

[dusk patrol]

And their lore will suck, so don’t worry about that

[fallow rover]

Oh fair

[storm jungle]

just be creative

[arctic talon]

[storm jungle]

Iron is also like

one of the most overused "cool name" bits ever

[fallow rover]

You should call them the brotherhood of steel /j

[dusk patrol]

Yeah cause it’s awesome

[storm jungle]

its lame

find better metals you fucking bozos

[dusk patrol]

Metal Noun my beloved

[storm jungle]

Bronze Chaps

[dusk patrol]

Metal of Noun my beloved

[dusk patrol]

Still dope

[hallow basin]

Palladium Paladins

[arctic talon]

@storm jungle do you have the salamander like super man image

[dusk patrol]

Make it a guard regiment

[arctic talon]

The one with the how salamander fans feel

And the burning people thing

[dusk patrol]

Alternative

Theres a Staaaaarrrrrmaaaaannn….

[rocky gale]

The Nickle Knights

[storm jungle]

Booooring 🗣️

[drifting cloud]

Well the idea is I'm making a sucessor chapter for the Iron Hands and Iron Warriors who got lost in the warp during the heresy and was spat out on the edge of the galaxy. After the heresy ended, they continued fighting each other until they forgot why they were fighting and had a sit down realising they were so similar that they might as well be the same chapter.

[storm jungle]

Iron Man no.29123 is two blocks over

👉

[dusk patrol]

I would maybe

[rocky gale]

Borax Brigade

[dusk patrol]

Change the how they got together bit more lol

[fallow rover]

Brass talons, Silver Sons, Brazen Bulls, Copper eagles

Oh wait silver sons is taken

[drifting cloud]

I just started writing it yesterday so I'm obviously working out the kinks

[dusk patrol]

I just did a Blackshield Iron Hands Iron Warrior thing called the Iron Forged. I would have done Ironborn but

https://tenor.com/view/game-of-thrones-theon-greyjoy-grey-joy-what-is-dead-may-never-die-motto-gif-5682607

Someone ruined that

[storm jungle]

based

Ironborn not ruin anything challenge

Impossible

[arctic talon]

what is Ironborn

do I even want to know

[dusk patrol]

People really don’t give them though credit for ruining Season 8

[dusk patrol]

Game of Thrones

[storm jungle]

Game of Thrones House/People

[arctic talon]

oh wait

nvm

[fallow rover]

Golden Guard, maybe?

[arctic talon]

yeah

LOL

[storm jungle]

yeah the dumbass vikings

[dusk patrol]

They’re cooler in the books but

[storm jungle]

who get nothing done

and get assfucked

[fallow rover]

Gilded angels

[arctic talon]

Gilded angels being an IH sucessor is funny

[rocky gale]

Have a Death Guard (Or Nurgle Iron Warrior) warband called the Heralds of the Cadmium Cross.

[arctic talon]

(Blank) Angels usually is a DA or BA sucessor

[fallow rover]

Copper angels and you could make them an angelic steampunk chapter

[arctic talon]

How it feels to kill trillions over the course of a few hours

[opaque coyote]

Praise the Emperor

[fallow rover]

But also you don't need to name them something metal themed

[arctic talon]

yeah

IH have sucessors without metal words

[dusk patrol]

The closest they get to a more traditional SM name thing like that is the Knights of Byzantium

[storm jungle]

Rigid Appendages

[drifting cloud]

The idea of the chapter is inventive tactics, adaptable siege warfare, salvaging and upgrading ancient equipment to contend with modern 40k warfare.

They use small detachments of marines in heavy tanks, dreadnoughts and siege engines; supported by a ludicrous amount of tech marines.

[opaque coyote]

"Steel Feet"

"Titanium Toes"

"Plasteel Balls"

[storm jungle]

STOP THIS

[dusk patrol]

So

They're Iron Hands

[opaque coyote]

[fallow rover]

Knights of byzantium is such a profoundly lame name im gonna be honest

[rocky gale]

"The Magnesium Magnates"

[arctic talon]

https://vxtwitter.com/JosephF62710202/status/1903792750987796597

big bozz

goes hard

[arctic talon]

Its fine

There's far worse names

lol

"sons of jagathai"
Genefather: Unknown

[dusk patrol]

Its a homebrew GW maybe made canon tbh, they look sick though.

[arctic talon]

still the funniest fucking thing ever

The fuck you mean you don't know who your dad is

[storm jungle]

Maybe its some other Jaghatai

[storm jungle]

like how 40k has 50 characters named Titus

[opaque coyote]

It was an affair with Fulgrim

[arctic talon]

GW employee homebrews being made canon

[fallow rover]

If you want to lean more techno cultist with them you could have them be called the prophets of steel or something

[arctic talon]

is always fun

tbh

because sometimes they have really interesting themes

[storm jungle]

oooh thats a good one, stealing it thanks

[arctic talon]

othertimes they're swords mc swordmen

(Silver templars)

[fallow rover]

Oh really? Never mind then sorry.

[arctic talon]

victoria lamb my GOAT

[dusk patrol]

We sorta accept it as canon since who cares but

[fallow rover]

Ohhhhhhhhhh okay I like fhat a lot

[arctic talon]

she's such a good painter lol

[dusk patrol]

Its barely come up

[arctic talon]

this shit back in the day was utterly derranged I'm ngl

[dusk patrol]

They're mentioned in a community article I think and maybe White Dwarf?

[arctic talon]

let me find her OSL stuff

Yeah knights of byzantium are in a white dwarf

• in a warcom article

they have some lore in the white dwarf one

[dusk patrol]

You know its subtle

[arctic talon]

very subtle

[vagrant fox]

Oh I remember these guys, they're fun

[arctic talon]

I can barely tell what they're inspired bty

[dusk patrol]

But I think they might have Japanese influence

[arctic talon]

SHE WAS DOING THIS SHIT IN 2003 LOL

[storm jungle]

you can tell like

[arctic talon]

Like

[storm jungle]

a white person made this

[arctic talon]

the level of her painting quality

comapred to a lot of painters at the time is nuts

[dusk patrol]

As opposed to the subtle designs we see come out of Japan?

[fallow rover]

I rlly like the concept of "successor chapters" tbh. Like, that historical continuity is neat and creative.Cause like, space marines are as much a cultural institution and a culture in their own right as a military order

[storm jungle]

Coming from the same studio as

arab

[storm jungle]

flying carpets

evil sorceror named jaffar

crusades

nippon samurai suicide bombers

clan toyota

id say yes

also pygmies if i gotta pull an uno card

[dusk patrol]

She didn't work for GW though

She just did really high quality model work back in the day

[storm jungle]

Im saying in general, its still pretty blatant and boring

[arctic talon]

well she did later

but her homebrew was before that

[storm jungle]

^

also like "what if space marines but japanese"

[arctic talon]

anyways go go sons of the phoenix

[storm jungle]

id make fun of it if it was any other faction so like it doesnt really make a difference

its lazy

[storm jungle]

Much better

mmmm candles

[arctic talon]

tbh its more so the painting quality that does it for me

anyways Sons of the Phoenix are prolly my favorite from the recent batch of like

GW employee homebrew -> canon faction

Some of the necron dynasties were cool as well

the bone and orange one

I forgot the name of

[dusk patrol]

I really like the bone one

[fallow rover]

Birthday cake flavour

[storm jungle]

They are Emperor's Children successors? Traitor geneseed!!!

[arctic talon]

I hope you get smited

[storm jungle]

LMAO

fuck you

[arctic talon]

LOL

[storm jungle]

literally only reason i remember them as a Chapter

"omg TRAITOR GENESEED"

shut the fuck up

[dusk patrol]

Purple guys!

They got purple!

[arctic talon]

PURPLE AND PHOENIX EC!!!!!!

[vagrant fox]

wawee phoenix, purple

[storm jungle]

uaaagghhghhgh

[drifting cloud]

the other idea I had for a homebrew chapter was basically Black Templars, but tech obsessed instead of faith obsessed. A fleet based crusading chapter who are experts at void warfare and breaching space hulks. best friends with the mechanicus due to their discoveries of numerous space hulks across the galaxy.

They also love the guard because they love recuiting them to be serfs for their chapter, and draw their recruits from their offspirng.

they are on the hunt for a suitable world to establish a fortress monestary.

[storm jungle]

STOP THIS

[fallow rover]

We've heard of loyalist successor chapters to traitor legions but what about traitor successor chapters to loyalist legions

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/paulie-sopranos-chair-ghost-gif-20349559

[storm jungle]

Uhhh

its happens sometimes i guess

[arctic talon]

There's a lot lmao

[storm jungle]

its nothing too noteworthy

LOL ELITE PLS

[arctic talon]

WHAT ITS TRUE

Abyssal crusade

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

lookin ass

LOL

[storm jungle]

cooked

[fallow rover]

This is kiiiiiinda just the iron hands afaik? But theres a ton of directions u could take this

[dusk patrol]

You could mix it up I guess

Make them more knightly.

Idk

[arctic talon]

All of these were loyalist sucessor chapters

[rose thorn]

Oh are we talking about cool successors?

[dusk patrol]

No

[arctic talon]

someone is making homebrew

™️

[rose thorn]

Good or bad

[dusk patrol]

Eye of the beholder

[arctic talon]

its good

[rose thorn]

OH you are here hai

[arctic talon]

imo

well its not bad rather

needs refinement™️ but ideas are good

[storm jungle]

ah yes the doom legion

[arctic talon]

but thats my opinion on most homebrew I read LOL

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/super-friends-justice-league-dc-villains-run-gif-5498195

nvm wrong one

[fallow rover]

Yk i wish loyalist marines were allowed more variance in their designs. Maybe im not looking st the right chapters but it feels like all of the loyalists look the same save some accessories and colors, but the traitors are all verrrrryyy different. Like, word bearers look absolutely nothing like thousand sons

[storm jungle]

They do

you can make a loyalist marine look like anything

[arctic talon]

they got refounded by primaris btw LOL

[rose thorn]

Something I learned is if you want a really edgy character, just make your chapter master or first captain or something edgy as shit

[dusk patrol]

Damn Dilara wasn’t reductive about loyalists

[arctic talon]

Give them green robes

pls

[dusk patrol]

I’m proud

[arctic talon]

So we can make DR doom marines

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/paulie-gualtieri-paul-tony-sirico-wtf-finger-gif-22816998

I got like 7 space marine OCs

i dont have to take this

[fallow rover]

Oh rlly? Yaaaaaaaaay

[arctic talon]

I mean

almost anything

[dusk patrol]

But yes just cause we don’t always see a ton of variance

[arctic talon]

just make sure it looks 40k by the end of it is my thing imo

[dusk patrol]

It’s like anything else

[rose thorn]

I can’t remember which Raven gaurd chapter it is, but the chapter it self is chill their chapter master was just viciously mentally ill

[arctic talon]

bro had the sable brand

lol

[dusk patrol]

GW isn’t gonna make art for all the wacky guard regiments or daemons or whatever

[storm jungle]

FYI most space marines look "clean" on artwork due to marketing/advertisement stuff, they sometimes can get unique cosmetic additions or whatever on official stuff but they are generally kept "blank" so they dont encourage people to have the wrong expectation when they buy them.

[dusk patrol]

We do see a lot of very different marine chapters though

[storm jungle]

unless idk you are the space wolves

lego wolf helmet

[arctic talon]

Space wolves are special

[fallow rover]

Mmmm

That makes sense

[arctic talon]

you can pick what I mean by that

[rose thorn]

Where’s the homebrew I wanna read it and see if my sigmar brain can help

[storm jungle]

yeah like say you are getting Executioners, GW isnt gonna get you flayed skin parts for them because your Chapter doesnt matter, its why Founding Legions only get unique cosmetics

[fallow rover]

But like, fundamentally different, like different head shapes and armor layouts and stuff wouldve cool

[storm jungle]

Yeah mostly

[rose thorn]

Dorn had the worst children lmao

[arctic talon]

nah Dorns children are based

They love murder

[rose thorn]

Worst in a fun way

Not worst in a bad way

[arctic talon]

fair enough

[rose thorn]

Shout out to the IF character in HH who just became an omega tyrant

[arctic talon]

oh

The IF Terran dude

[rose thorn]

Yeah

[arctic talon]

The Tyrant of Cthonia

[rose thorn]

YEAHHHH

[storm jungle]

Worst in a fun way
Not worst in a bad way

[rose thorn]

[rose thorn]

GOAT

[dusk patrol]

Executioners are 10/10 in the based department smh

[arctic talon]

oh my god he has a helmetless option

its kind of hot I mean what

[rose thorn]

Nah he right

[storm jungle]

they suffer from success from the most common IF trope, aka they are nothing like their Parent chapter and thus benefit from it 🗿

[rose thorn]

My friend is a dilf hunger want me to get his opinion

[dapper gyro]

Terra SM and becoming tyrants... News at 1900.

[drifting cloud]

I like the idea of tech based crusaders looking for lost tech from the horus heresy and centuries prior to take to the mechanicus and be like

"turn this into more weapons for us."

They love the emperor, but they think the mechanicus will be our best chance to survive when the emperor dies.

They have a knightly vibe with reverence for technogly, and eugenics.

"Humanity was never meant to embrace the psychic. We are creatures of the earth, of the material."

They love the guard because that is their best stock for recruitment.

[arctic talon]

Fafnir Rann my GOAT

[vagrant fox]

IF successors are consistently funny and jovial lads

[rose thorn]

He was the first chapter master of the executioner’s btw

They kept his armor

[arctic talon]

Yep

he's fun

I love the extremely violent marines a lot tbh

mostly because uh

murder is funny

[dusk patrol]

Imperial Fists are the most vanilla guys really, their main downfall being yellow sucks fucking dick to paint

[rose thorn]

They got their emotions out in hh

[storm jungle]

their scheme is cool, otherwise yeah i got nothing

[arctic talon]

I do like the whole

Executioners vs Carchs incident

in Badab

[storm jungle]

Fnaf Ran my beloved

[dusk patrol]

They’re the baseline

[arctic talon]

where it was a total fucking slaughter

LOL

[dapper gyro]

CF is more vanilla than IF.

[arctic talon]

and neither side talked about it

[dusk patrol]

Ultramarines have ironically a shitton going on

[arctic talon]

at all

[rose thorn]

It’s like that imperial knight chapter who have day long ceremonies and shit, so then they go out the battlefield they go fucking CRAZYYYU

[vagrant fox]

Unhinged marines my beloved, suck sensible behavior go ham go stupid

[storm jungle]

the Imperial Fists do get a bit quirky at night

[dusk patrol]

Even just chapter composition wise

[drifting cloud]

so death companies?

[arctic talon]

Considered by some a ‘lost tale’ of the Badab War whose true facts will never be known, what became known as the Corcyran Massacre was discovered by a Loyalist naval patrol in 339910.M41. In the wreckage of an old smuggler base in the dust wastes of Corcyra-II was found the aftermath of a bloody battle between sub-company sized forces of the Executioners and Charcharodons Chapters. These two Chapters, both famed in their own right as savage and unyielding, had fought each other to mutual annihilation, ripping apart the base around them and trampling its former inhabitants into the dust. Many of the bodies from both sides showed signs of having fought on despite suffering horrendous wounds, severed limbs and massive trauma that should have felled even a Space Marine, and several were found locked in deathly, gore-splattered embraces, striking at their foes with their last ebbing strength. Which fighter, Executioner or Carcharodon breathed last to claim a bitter victory shall never be known, as neither side has acknowledged any survivors of the massacre living to tell of the battle.

based based based based

[dapper gyro]

Make Crimson Fists poster boys again.

[arctic talon]

I LOVE MURDER

[vagrant fox]

It's better if they do warcrames for the love of the game, but death companies are fine too

[dusk patrol]

No, marines who are just unhinged

[arctic talon]

Death company marines are unhinged unwillingly

the Executioners are just

unhinged LOL

[storm jungle]

Speaking of, found my 40k personal Chapter chart

[arctic talon]

they were literally skinning loyalists alive

[drifting cloud]

question; do you also love The Minotaurs?

[arctic talon]

during the Badab war

[arctic talon]

Yes

I also think they're a bunch of spoiled children

and huge cowards

but its part of the charm

They are literally school yard bullies

who gang up on people and then go crying home to daddy mommy when it doesn't go their way

[dapper gyro]

Raptor!!?

[arctic talon]

and then they come back with more shit

and then try again

[storm jungle]

Yeah i like vanilla

[arctic talon]

its totally fair

1000 marines vs 50

[barren prawn]

the Praetorian of Dorn was one of the most forgettable horus heresy books

[arctic talon]

[rose thorn]

Tbh I should just make my space marines knight of the raven

[drifting cloud]

i knew it.

[storm jungle]

Minotaurs are the type of Marines to place TNT all around your minecraft home then blow it up

[arctic talon]

I love how the one named Executioner chaplain literally has a dead baby on his armor

like

[rose thorn]

Since grey knights will be in hell for a another few years

[arctic talon]

that goes extremely hard lol

[dusk patrol]

Marines Malevolent, Iron Hands, Executioner, and Scythes have a fanbase?

[storm jungle]

Nah nah that text is for the BTs

the others are cool

[dapper gyro]

If so, Crimson Fists deserve an honourable mention. They are dumb, but they try to be reasonable.

[arctic talon]

they literally skin people alive

LOL

[barren prawn]

Minotaurs are kind of a meme tbh

[arctic talon]

Minotaurs are so fucking goofy

[dusk patrol]

I love em

[arctic talon]

they almost only win when they horribly out number the enemy

[storm jungle]

They are great

[vagrant fox]

They're dumb shitty assholes and it's funny

[arctic talon]

and they always pick those bully fights

and then they steal shit

[barren prawn]

wowowow theyre so mysterious they uhhh fight other marines and they uhhh listen to the lords of terra

[storm jungle]

they are what happens if you make Minecraft griefers a chapter.

[barren prawn]

yeah ookay buddy

[arctic talon]

They aren't really mysterious at all lol

Their motives are pretty well known

[storm jungle]

They are just a specifically commissioned Chapter with rich resources yeah

[arctic talon]

they're just a bunch of attack dogs lol

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/watchmen-dr-manhattan-dr-manhattan-doctor-gif-2496607164499930089

[arctic talon]

who love to bully weaker enemies

[barren prawn]

am i really supposed to believe they follow the lords of terra over their own?

[storm jungle]

🤝

[drifting cloud]

I like chapters like Blood Angels and Emperor's Children

[storm jungle]

I mean yes?

Marines just do what they want

[dusk patrol]

For example, there’s this Black Templar fan who always pops in here

[fallow rover]

Free use idea for a homebrew chapter; group of loyalist space marines who descend from a traitor primarch and are painfully aware of that, and they live out their days guilty and self-flagellant about it. Call them the penitent legion or smthn

[storm jungle]

some are kiss-asses some are independant

[dusk patrol]

[arctic talon]

They're loyal to the High Lord of the Administratum because she is literally their sugar mommy lol

[barren prawn]

and they want to listen to humans?

[arctic talon]

No

its a mutual beneift thing lol

they get a blank check

[barren prawn]

ye

i know that

[storm jungle]

Guys i cannot do this, someone kill Clad for me, be my Minotaurs
