Quick somebody get the popcorn

Where do we even get the idea that Avatars can’t be choked out also?

Where do we even get the idea that Avatars can’t be choked out also?
Aren'tthey statues ?
storm jungle
Aren'tthey statues ?
They are literally magma rock magic statues
queen laurel
Yeah that
storm jungle
so going by Eternal's logic they shouldnt be able to be choked either
dusk patrol
I don’t give a fuck about Fulgrim, it’s just a stupid talking point, idk where the idea that they can’t be choked out even comes from
They literally bleed magma
sharp pollen
hey fulgrim, may i have 5 big booms pls
storm jungle
Yes Magma, not that they got an internal fucking bodily system lol
dusk patrol
Even daemons get choked out, there doesn’t have to be some consistent rule
They’re warp monsters

Cause they're rocks, and artifical, which would imply doesn't breath
dapper gyro
Aren'tthey statues ?
Nah, Fulgrim secretly used his demon dick on the Avatar, so the Eldar god decided to fuck off.
storm jungle
Even daemons get choked out, there doesn’t have to be some consistent rule
Yes because they got actual functioning bodily systems.
dusk patrol
Cause they're rocks, and artifical, which would imply doesn't breath
Except they’re warp beings
queen laurel
Yeah it's a statue that is animated to move by the power of a god of war
storm jungle
Which the Avatar is never said to have
summer mural
daemonettes are definitely doing some choking 
storm jungle
The evidence being what
queen laurel
And you're telling me apparently because gold boy here made someone special it can just choke that thing
dusk patrol
It got choked out
storm jungle
that it bleeds lava?
storm jungle
It got choked out
And a space marine gets stabbed in the neck with a wooden spear
dusk patrol
Yes
storm jungle
so I guess they arent invincible super reflex beings as the lore told me so
dusk patrol
Yes they can die from dumb stuff and?
celest dome
Except they’re warp beings
It's not, it's material that is possessed at most
storm jungle
And its bad writing.
near wasp
I don't even know what points being made anymore
celest dome
And its bad writing.
When it's about Eldar, when isn't it bad writing
dapper gyro
Lol, there are quite a few low augmented people who can duel SM.
storm jungle
I don't even know what points being made anymore
He wants to excuse a bad part of a book with weird mary sue OC logic.
"oh they are just magical beings they can do that"
Okay buddy lol
queen laurel
He wants to excuse a bad part of a book with weird mary sue OC logic.
And apparently that's good enough
Well their magical so they can get away with it
dusk patrol
Like Cain literally 1v1s a Khornate zerker no shit a marine can die from a random spear if it hits right
queen laurel
Like Cain literally 1v1s a Khornate zerker no shit a marine can die from a rando...
You mean one that's heavily injured
storm jungle
Like Cain literally 1v1s a Khornate zerker no shit a marine can die from a rando...
Because his books are propaganda
dusk patrol
What does that have to do with what we’re talking about
storm jungle
and heavily edited
queen laurel
And missing limbs
dusk patrol
ADB didn’t write Cain
queen laurel
and even the author ADB has said he doesnt really consider them lore accurate.
most of his things are like dumb luck
near wasp
What we preceive in the books isn't always the truth
dapper gyro
It is a big note that Cain story is edited by his lover, an inquisitor...
storm jungle
ADB didn’t write Cain
Ah wait I forgot his name hold on
dapper gyro
Imagine them without bias.
storm jungle
There we go Sandy Mitchell
summer mural
id like the inquisitors name to just be Sandy
storm jungle
None of this has to do with what was being discussed anyways
I mean you are the one derailing it
"none of it matters"
you dont need to excuse a really bad part of a wonky book either
near wasp
I'm going back to writing my fanfic
queen laurel
An excuse won't soften a bad writing
near wasp
At least I know it'll be bad writing
dapper gyro
Dil, take your med and go out side, it is good for you.

Guy gets mad what I say anything

I tend to ask like if fulgrim preferred sandals or shoes when he was a primarch and it goes into a full discussion on was magnus right

and not that it has internal organs?

I mean yeah that’s a big theme with them, they’re very powerful warp beings

Literally one of the dumbest things ive ever read.

Anyways what age do Knight pilots typically bond with a knight
dusk patrol
Idk why this is news
forest orbit
I mean you getting it wrong is the thing
dusk patrol
Anyways what age do Knight pilots typically bond with a knight
Depends, 20s-30s generally it seems
forest orbit
Get me one reference where it implies they are organic
You didnt have anything aside from just "oh it bleeds magma"
storm jungle
Hes always like this to be honest, then gets also mad and calls people dumbasses when they disagree with his weird arguments.
summer mural
well, putting their choking tendency aside, its kinda strange how often avatars of khaine get beat up
dusk patrol
“Primarchs are power warp beings who fight good” is very controversial today
forest orbit
Its not really weird
summer mural
its not supposed to be a thing thats easy to defeat right
forest orbit
Its for the marine of the week to kill
summer mural
yeah that
dusk patrol
its not supposed to be a thing thats easy to defeat right
Yeah they definitely get shit on a lot
forest orbit
because Big Threat Defeated = More Cool Factor
queen laurel
Hes always like this to be honest, then gets also mad and calls people dumbasses...
Every time
dusk patrol
And that’s not good
forest orbit
they are a wrestling heel essentially
now eternal is prob gonna complain "this is a circlejerk"
summer mural
like beat up a wraithlord
dusk patrol
Just them losing to a primarch isn’t exactly that wild
near wasp
Let's all just admit avatars of kaine exist to die
storm jungle
I mean its not the losing bit.
queen laurel
It's how they lost
storm jungle
Its again the choking of a thing that isnt exactly an organic thing lol
dusk patrol
Imperators and Avatars of Khaine are the two worfs

titans lose to individual characters?
near wasp
titans lose to individual characters?
Yes
summer mural
apart from going in and sabotaging it
forest orbit
Sometimes they just die to enemy titans/enemy army
dusk patrol
titans lose to individual characters?
Sometimes
forest orbit
apart from going in and sabotaging it
Titans are usualyl fucked the moment their escort is destroyed and their shields go down
dusk patrol
Sanguinius does kill an Imperator by himself
summer mural
sang does yeah
storm jungle
Primarchs are more normal
they are basically capeshit superheroes
them doing this stuff is not that weird
storm jungle
I mean is it wrong
forest orbit
Not really
sharp pollen
who is biggest edgelord of 40k
summer mural
at least sang can fly
forest orbit

Night Lords or Black Templars
dusk patrol
There is one single Imperator appearance in 40k where it doesn’t die the book it’s introduced in
storm jungle
at least sang can fly
Just punch into it bozo
near wasp
who is biggest edgelord of 40k
Konrad, next question
summer mural

depends on the world 18- late 20s/early 30s

Sweet that's about the age I'm doing
arctic talon

storm jungle

Literally couldnt bare the first episodes due to that tbh
arctic talon
if you get moved to a questoris
forest orbit
Same.
arctic talon
you gotta rebind
dusk patrol
Also sometimes they have issues cause they have to inherit it
And the person above them hasn’t died yet
forest orbit
The last stand scene at the church kinda makes it worth it
dusk patrol
So they might have to wait
forest orbit
but like it takes so long to get there
storm jungle
Just go watch Angels of Death dummy

other knights uh

Luckily I'm just doing a single knight for my character, since he's inhereticing from his father

of CSM and daemons with him

thats kinda it

Daemons often aren’t very affected by most munitions
forest orbit

arctic talon
and demand a dual
forest orbit
daemons get convenient anime powers on plot demand
near wasp
Theres no honor when your the last being standing on a pile of a billion corpses
summer mural
that is true, he can bust open a wall with ease
forest orbit
Daemons often aren’t very affected by most munitions
They are tbh
arctic talon
Skulltakers warband has a lot of vindicators lol
dusk patrol
If Skulltaker is there
arctic talon
daemons don't get messed with by bullets as much
forest orbit
people wanna see a fight
arctic talon
as shank
dusk patrol
Then the warp power is probably high enough he’s not gonna go down easy to guns
arctic talon
its not so much plot convienance as GW has designed it this way lore wise
dusk patrol
Melee weapons work better cause symbolism and warp shit
storm jungle
the warp power in this case translates to "does the author want him to duel anyone"
dusk patrol
Careful though, this is bad writing

the answer for skulltaker is always yes
forest orbit
Careful though, this is bad writing
No one said it was
its just plot convenience
keep up
storm jungle
Lmao
summer mural
his thing is being a khorne duellist anyway, it wouldnt make much sense if he walks around with a sniper rifle to kill champions and collect their skulls
storm jungle
but yeah basically its why figths in the setting need that personal duel touch or whatever
otherwise its boring
dusk patrol
Yeah he’s always Duelistexual
storm jungle
like most IRL wars are
forest orbit
Yeah it would be kinda lame if he just gets blown up by some rogue shell
unless its done well
then its funny
arctic talon
tbh
storm jungle
Yeah some books do that trope good
summer mural
so who did he lose to in 40k? like in fantasy he lost to sigmar iirc
storm jungle
Accurate.
forest orbit
so who did he lose to in 40k? like in fantasy he lost to sigmar iirc
I dunno my mom
dusk patrol
so who did he lose to in 40k? like in fantasy he lost to sigmar iirc
He doesn’t have many appearances
summer mural
probably lost to draigo at some point , il just assume that
arctic talon
so who did he lose to in 40k? like in fantasy he lost to sigmar iirc
he lost to some bloodthirster
And uh
an Eldar Exarch
forest orbit
Doesnt help that hes just a Bloodletter But Drippier

summer mural
masque lore isnt much, but its more interesting , in how slaanesh cursed her because he was feeling bad oneday
dusk patrol
So he’s got that going for him
arctic talon
Changeling isn't a herald is he?
summer mural
not afaik
dusk patrol
Idk he’s the same idea
storm jungle
He basically is one
dusk patrol
Lower level dude
storm jungle
He mostly gets used because he can shapeshift
arctic talon
I need to find khorne daemonkin

dusk patrol
Urm you mean he changelings

a showcase? of like different morals/aesthetics in my warband
Mr Mask had like, a mask of human skin (toned it down to leather cause it's a bit too chaos) and he looked like he just drank 30 redbulls
Nose dude, in fact had no nose
was just flat skin, he had an autogun and las gun for some reason

It depends as usual, sometimes daemons are described as utterly horrific blurry monsters while in others they are just treated as DOOM daemons

dapper gyro
I like Morrow. He is tore between moral and order.
dusk patrol
Those aren’t mutually exclusive
storm jungle
Eldritch means they are unknowable superbeings
which they arent because we need codex fluff
so yes
dusk patrol
They’re still unknowable, they just also fight with eachother
storm jungle
They are 4 cartoon characters and thats okay.
One likes war, one is excessior, one is stinky and one is magic.

Tbf his morals aren’t too strong

Kinda sad that the minor (And the GREATEST) Chaos Gods weren't present too
summer mural
They are basically cartoon characters
Khorne being like " That Abaddon guy? yeah Il approve" and Nurgle being like " I approve too" and then Khorne being like " im gonna burn your mansion down" and then nurgle sulking in a corner somewhere before taking a dump on the brass citadel
storm jungle
Kinda sad that the minor (And the GREATEST) Chaos Gods weren't present too
they got held up in court

cartoon characters are stronger than any Lovecraftian horror anyway

Yeah pretty much, people post excerpts of them as some incomprehensible being in one book before a codex is like
"Khorne got mad and jumped Nurgle and stole his lunch money, this happened during the great Poxcopalypso Wars of M41.6969"
summer mural
well its the best way to handle their level of power, if you make them serious and edgy youl never be able to actually match what they can do, because they cant be serious and edgy enough relative to their ability

the administratum is the final boss of office work

i think id say tzeentch is the only one that represents the eldritch aspect of chaos anyway, down to the tentacles and incomprehensible body shapes
spring cairn
or the adeptus paperus or whatver
storm jungle
Yeah that is a better opinion on it.
Change is also a lot more cooler concept for a chaos god.
also confusing for the sake of confusing lol

Nurgle definitely has plenty of eldritch aspects too as does Slannesh, Khorne is probably the most simple

Tzeentch fit the most with the usual Elder God depiction, but there are others that would fit the others
dusk patrol
Then guard or ad mech
rose thorn
If you mean tabletop
Yeah tabletop
spring cairn
guard definitely
dusk patrol
Probably ad mech total
rose thorn
Fair
rose thorn
Oh yeah they ahve those onetime buffs and stuff too
rose thorn
Which feels very paperworky
dapper gyro
Arbites is also full on paperworks.
rose thorn
Lmao true
summer mural
imagine if the imperium sends the catachans to chop down trees on exodite craftworlds because " We dont have enough material to make paper anymore"
spring cairn
nah the imperium probably makes paper with flayed infant skin or some shit
they're good
storm jungle
nah the imperium probably makes paper with flayed infant skin or some shit

Vellum baby

that is true actually, all these holy scrolls and parchments dont look like paper made from wood
storm jungle
It depends
most is made from vellum

It is usually just paper...

I’m not joking in the first Dawn kt fire book it’s pointed out that spilling ink will get you made into a servator

Ogres are too good for 40k
summer mural
I love ogres
storm jungle
they deserve to be in better settings like AOS/WHF
summer mural
I didnt like them before tbh, but ogres are now my favourite fantasy race
storm jungle
their lore is what makes it imo
summer mural
I love the neutrality done right
also, I actually like the aesthetic and the mercenary vibe
storm jungle
I think the best part is they will work for ANY faction if you pay them enough. Its such a good fucking part of their lore
also yeah the mongolian look with the massive tusks and gutplates is great
dapper gyro
Try it bozo
This is the 4th words you used for me today. A lot of anger today, eh?
summer mural
yeah even the new cathay minis have an ogre manning the artillery

Plus the average fan can identify with them

their story entries are like,
"Ulbag Humaneater worked for the Border Prince Lucifius Maldunkompf. Lucifius didnt pay him so Ulbag ate him."
CINEMA.
storm jungle
Wouldnt surprise me lol
summer mural
well its also just like,ungrim locking up the maneaters in jail, where they ate all the other prisoners and drank a bunch of bugmans
dusk patrol
At a certain point I stop being able to suspend my disbelief that this many people aren’t paying off these horrific monsters across different media
storm jungle
Its probably the most "realistic" part of their lore.
summer mural
their origin stories are very nice too, and make sense mostly, like going to the mountains of mourn and fighting off a race of civilized giants, to the point where they are wandering dumb brutes now
storm jungle
pay them and they'll do whatever, they dont care

Now I wanna see the Kislev models
summer mural
is that coming
summer mural
like is it a thing
storm jungle
Yeah it is
summer mural
people keep telling me gw will 100% make khuresh a thing
dusk patrol
Why would that be a downside
storm jungle
...
summer mural
instead of just references
storm jungle
who the fuck said its a downside?
dusk patrol
You just said there’s nothing to see there
storm jungle
No?
summer mural
kislev doesnt have very visually appealing models based on total war if im being honest
dusk patrol
“There isn’t much” fine
storm jungle
I just said its just gonna be the total war models, so theres not much to expect.
summer mural
which is fair
dusk patrol
There is, I wanna see the kislev models done by GW
dusk patrol
You literally said there’s isn’t much to see
summer mural
i guess gw doing ice guard and elemental bears with detail would be nice
storm jungle
can you actually not
dusk patrol
How could anyone not take that negative
arctic talon
The Cathay minis look better then the total war ones
summer mural
they do
storm jungle
Because not everyone reads into these comments as much as you do
summer mural
they look really good imo
dusk patrol
I didn’t read into it that’s what it means
summer mural
especially that skylantern, its amazing detail
storm jungle
Okay Mr Semanticus.
dusk patrol
If I say there isn’t much to see there about something
storm jungle
anyway yeah im sure they will look great
dusk patrol
That’s not a positive thing
summer mural
gryphon legion looks nice
celest dome
theres not much to expect. =/= there isn’t much to see
storm jungle
theres not much to expect. =/= there isn’t much to see
So negative smh
But yeah we already saw a great majority of the roster in total war anyway so it should be pretty good
celest dome
Wait is that the father from Malcom the Middle ?
celest dome
Is Heisenberg the name of the actor ?
dusk patrol
Brian Cranston
storm jungle
LMAO CACTI
dusk patrol
The gif is someone in a mask
storm jungle
you did not just say that
celest dome
storm jungle
😭
summer mural
he played walter white aka heisenberg in breaking bad, popular show
storm jungle
its pure blue cinema
summer mural
although I should have assumed you hadnt seen it since you recognized him as the guy from malcolm in the middle
dusk patrol
How do you know who Walter White is but not Heisenberg
storm jungle
Malcolm in the Middle is such a good show too tbh
dusk patrol
Allegedly they’re doing reunion or something
celest dome
Reboot iirc
dusk patrol
Gritty reboot
summer mural
rebootay guil- alright im out
celest dome
You are reintroduced to this family. We left the airwaves 20 years ago. All the boys are adults with their own children. It’s a different dynamic in that sense — and yet, do things really change with Hal and Lois? I don’t know that they do!”
storm jungle
the more Cranston the better tbh
celest dome
The new show follows Muniz’s character Malcolm, and his daughter as they are forced to attend Hal and Lois’ 40th wedding anniversary party
storm jungle
dusk patrol
Inb4 they just redo all the Hal cold opens but with Malcolm this time
dusk patrol
Not yet

Is the Dune HBO series even any good
arctic talon
Is the Dune HBO series even any good
It’s decent imo
summer mural
ive been meaning to watch it
ive heard its got very good production values too, which id expect from a dune series on hbo
storm jungle
its good, id recommend it
dusk patrol
Watching it now
Women, in my Dune?
Herbert would never
Harkonnens are gingers, so much makes sense now
summer mural
so technically
alith anar killed khaine
alright, i cant make any sense of the end times, Im done with it
dusk patrol
It gets a little wacky
summer mural
im slowly getting into aos
dusk patrol
If it had more time in the oven it could be better
summer mural
but i keep getting whiplash from all the fantasy references
and I just get into that rather than check out actual aos stuff
like eltharion being in aos as an armored spirit soul thing is pretty cool
i like that they didnt just bring him back wholesale but he does get to continue
and he can communicate telepathically so hes more or less there
the only character i actually disliked returning was archaon himself
I feel like ive gotten enough of archaon and aos could have used a new big bad of chaos
but not bringing him back would be kinda admitting he succeeded in his goal but lost to sigmar ig?
arctic talon
The point is he failed his goal tbh
Which is why he’s going for the throat this time
And after the chaos gods
summer mural
well, having a trio of everchosen type dudes would be nice
abaddon and archaon are kinda stale for me at this point as characters
celest dome
I prefer Archaon over Abadon at least 💀
summer mural
they are fine in their respective settings, but they could have done a third one for aos
celest dome
Old World will have a separate Everchosen in theory
dusk patrol
Yeah there was a lot before Archaon
dusk patrol
Not sure if we know the one for Old World
celest dome
So either we will see Kul, or there won't be one
arctic talon
We don’t
summer mural
its not like we know all of the 13 anyway right
celest dome
After no ?
celest dome
The end of the Great War on Chaos is when the Old World start ?
dusk patrol
I got no clue, not sure on the timeline
celest dome
Ok so apparently its the year 2276
So it's just before the Great war against Chaos (2302)
dusk patrol
They’ll probably set that up then
celest dome
So it would be Asavar kul
dusk patrol
summer mural
oh good
I assumed he was gonna look like a marauder chieftan
but at least hes got an everchosen outfit
celest dome
arctic talon
That’s that OG warhammer art
opaque coyote
Yeah its the artist's style
I'm not saying that it looks bad stylistic wise.
Just that how it's framed is kinda awkward since I genuinely had a hard time trying to like

It’s just Adrian Smith’s style

Ultramarines have 28 full tech marines and a bunch more in training.
Blood angels post devastation had 37 tech marines and more in training

Note that many Tech marines are not with the main fighting forces, so they are not count in the 1000 SM limit.

Trench Crusade is now a REAL table top
Because at least one person thinks it's racist
It's a requirement
A rite of passage
The funniest part about this is that the entirety of Trench Crusade is technically europe's fault in the first place

Or well tbf someone could've found that relic that caused the templars to fall eventually

How would I do this if there’s nothing specific the daemon is inhabiting? Just let it loose if the party decides they want to investigate?
Or like if they interact with the spirits inhabiting it enough to draw its attention?

Come to think of it why don’t these factories have defense systems controlled by servitors since true AI is illegal
surreal merlin
Am I looking too much into things or is it likely just game mechanics?
arctic talon
Am I looking too much into things or is it likely just game mechanics?
you are not
but with how corrupted the factory complex is and how the Cultists/moebians have taken over
its likely any defences have been destroyed or disabled
tough haven
Am I looking too much into things or is it likely just game mechanics?
It’s likely that the factory trades hands often, won back and controlled by imperial powers for a time, production resumes, chaos takes it back, and so on and so forth
opaque coyote
Y'know I just realized there is a huge overlap with Transformers and 40k fans
And like
It makes the most sense
They're both basically based off of toys
The obligatory major bad Guy faction (Chaos/Depecticons) literally self sabotage each other 95% of the time.
Autistic people often gravitate towards both like flies (I am no exception)
It makes complete sense

Servitor defenses are kinda shitty unless being directed by something higher. Moebian 6th are steamrolling them no problem.

They can be really good it’s just they’re gonna get worn down by the vast hordes and numbers the chaos forces have on Atoma
Presumably they’ve been long since destroyed by the time we get there in DT
They show up in the Darktide TTRPG expansion they did as a possible hazard
arctic talon
Yeah
dapper gyro
I believe that the wave of heretics attacks are already done. In most of the missions, it is usually cleaning up or sabotage attacks while the main forces are taking the main hordes elsewhere.
dusk patrol
Yeah generally we’re not striking at the frontline areas
