But it’s a little different
They have a position called the Orakle
Whose basically a spiritual leader to them from the most powerful and venerated astropath.
Some don’t agreed with this.
huh..interesting
Laati, can we not
It was a post making fun of that piece of shit Vance lol
do we think mutilators still participate in their warbands particular "hobbies"
or schticks ig
or is it pure melee love of the game
@storm jungle Mark Addy as a Harakonen is hilarious.
Wouldnt surprise me tbh, the general rule is even tho its not tabletop its still kinda there just not as often mentioned because well marketing
Hes soooo good lmao
such a slimey piece of shit
They’re all pretty awful except like, idk I guess the son who died
that works, i just need to know if i can make a big gut mutilator
cause like if you're so obsessed with blades where would you get the time to be eatin
Fitting for Dune politics tbh
And yeah again remember for minis they gotta have a few molds
Yeah
doesn't stop you from going wild
hell yea
Also it’s not a bad thing but
Travis Fimmel is playing like the exact same character as he did in Raised by Wolves
He’s good but it’s so weird lol
Yeah I agree, I dont mind "exact same character from Movie X" stuff when the product itself is usually entertaining.
so i guess better than phoning it in but lol
He’s good at giving those weird ass stares
compensate for it by having him play as a viking
Idk how he’s Australian
It’s the same deal as Obliterators where models are always gonna be limited
And Helbrutes
But we have descriptions of much wackier ones
fuuuuck i need to get a helbrute soon
gotta make a word bearer
and true
the angel of blades comes to mind
What things IRL would be considered satire in an alternative timeline?
How alternated?
Considering the world as it is currently and how straight up out of South Park some current events sound like I dont know honestly

Because the current gamers sitting in a room while controlling a swarm of drone to search, kill and destroy, yet barely reach victory... if it is a WW1/2 universe, it sounds so non sense.
Yes

Idk there's no guideline just choose one that sounds most plausible
Yeah shit like this 
Honestly I think the funniest one is a 4chan post where somebody says like
Fantasy universe has magic but still uses horses
And then somebody replies that we have nuclear tech and power but still use coal
I mean hell we still use horses
Tbf they're pretty much only used in like
Places with less infrastructure or just for fun/aesthetics
We went to the moon before we put wheels on suitcases is always a good example.
Technology doesn't develop on the same scale or for the same reasons
Honestly I always find it funny that
"Why doesn't X civilization have this? They have the tech!"
Is a complaint
Like on some level it can apply
But sometimes people just
Don't have the idea for it
Like firstly there needs to be a need
Secondly there needs to be the idea
Like China actually developed the Printing Press first
The problem is that Chinese has a lot of characters to say the least
So Printing Presses were basically monothilic and
Kinda useless to them
They were only used to reproduce old literature
But when Europe got it, well it became much more useful
Every had to hurry up and wait in a location so you could hurry up and wait later, at a different location?
Ever step on a rock, get accused of being dumber than said rock, told to keep the rock on your person to give you "someone to emulate", put the rock in your pocket, be accused of smothering the rock to death — and finally being forced to give the rock a full burial detail in 106° weather?
Are majority of the Necron still sleeping or awake? Also, what the estimate number of Necron now awake compared to total? I heard someone said only around 10% - 15% of the Necrons are awake, which is scary af.
The vast majority of Necrons are still sleeping, GW has never given an actual %of Necrons awake other then THERE IS A LOT OF THEM THIS IS A SMALL AMOUNT
Like elite said
The amount that is awake is like tiny
If all of them wake up that is practically a setting ending event
GW likes avoiding numbers because it gives them ample room to play around
The answer to "how many X are alive/awake" for any faction is "however many is thematically appropriate at that specific point in time"
Pets in general are a pretty funny concept
Keeping a thing around and keeping it alive so you can pet it and have it just hang out
Often at great expense
Any actual look at most countries
sleeping.
i mean, come on. 25% minimum of a person's day has to be given over to going into a catatonic state, and people who do not slowly degrade until they die? and they might be terrorized during the entire length of that 25% via nightmares?
people are so desperate to avoid it that they dope up their body with chemicals that will destroy them long-term
grimdark edgy writing for the sake of, tbh
I wish a certain president all the nightmares in the world.
Amen to that 🙏
Why for though
Got that bewb armor
Fake news
oh shit
warpstone is a helluva drug
you'll have to do better than that, im a sefoni enjoyer
yeah it's well made and eye catching
Nice, gotta wait till September with my store 😆
2-3 weeks in Leicester!
I went into pick up my genestealers i ordered
came out with an extra for 24 pounds x_x
but hes cool
whats that in its hand
i thought it was a rock
Genestealers/Terminators have been a romantic duo since like the 90's
so they are a prettty iconic combo due to spacehulk
Very romantic
I asked the store clerk what was in his hand and said "Is that a brain" and he corrected me, it was so crumpled up I couldn't recognize it
yeah you might think you are safe in that iron fridge until you meet a giant monster that somehow evolved .claws long enough and sharp enough to cut through said armored fridge
its due to the angle
Im sure nobody would get agitated by such a statement.

i mean it's the truth it would be dumb to make a counter statement that's like a given like yes they can fight back but it's still the truth that they are gonna get cut open if that thing gets close
Lmfao that too
stop this!!!
ive been in here for 5 minutes and you're already thinking about ways to cook me and my brethren. 
You know what, maybe I will go that congregation meeting tomorrow all the guys down in the mining shaft invited me too. They said there was free coffee and tea
prawn boil with rippers 🤔
baldness is the mark of the beast
Smh inquisition trying to keep a good businessman down
Jeff Bezos is the anti-christ
Let me sell my food
Oh so I'm not allowed to grow Ork steaks but they can make Genestealer bisque
where
also cooking dishes with warhammer ingredients sounds like a good concept for a cooking game
Delicious in Grimdark
based
you wanted to eat actual orks just stick to squigs
In the Space Marine episode of Secret Level, ||how did the Chaos demon killed 2 Astartes without even hurting them?||
because its a daemon
it mindfucked them
you dont need to use guns to kill marines
Brainsplosion
magic is a thing
it asked them to do basic arithmetic via telepathy and they exploded
Brain blast
Yeah, like ||the socceror just touch an Astartes helmet and his head turned into goop||
classic magic trope
they didnt have the plot armor titus had so they all died
if they made me face my fears past id be confronted with vegetables and win
Weaponized stroke then?
It's magic he cast I like alaka dabra and they stopped moving and then killed their mind
I’m just reacting to that gif 😂
We see here it causes big head bleeding
and big head bleeding is typically fatal
Also just got to post how cool she is
I’m definitely stealing it for a daemon design
Cant blame you, shes cool af
and her power is very cool too
I love the face your past trope
I LOVE DARKEST DUNGEON 2!!!
If she grabbed my chin like that I would also start bleeding profusely from the face.
Really confusing for people who have no clue what 40K is
I mean yeah
Terminator helmets are kinda ugly
I watched it with 3 people who had no clue what was going on
THe secret level episode?
its an interesting thought if chaos marines wish to adorn themselves to look beautiful or do they do it to inspire fear and hatred in their enemies, I feel like the latter probably works out better
errr
not chaos
just spacemarines
Yeah
I wonder if there'd be an reason to put a camoflauge paint on a space marine
Camouflage
Bit of both, depending on the chapter
were whips ever actually called hellscourges or is this just a warhammer thing
in the 41st millennium there really is only slay
In the soulbound book lmao
amazing
peak
Do inquisition members usually create new personas? Or do they make a person disappear and replace their personas usually
a mix of the former and latter
depending on the situation they would either apply what is mentioned
Like when they create a cover identity, would they just like create all the documents and make it seem like that person has always existed? Like for example ||The arbites judge in the Vorbis conspiracy||
again
Wouldn’t that make people ask questions?
wtf is a mortis operative anyway
if they specialize on it they can definitely basically act like it
these guys pick up a variety of skills
It’s a group within the warband we’re in
Basically just a cool kids club
yeah it's just another collection of elite operatives
Lol I see
United States doesn’t exist
Europe is the primary power
Whole world is a hellscape constantly fighting off the forces of hell
Coincidence?
But Canada...
There was a funny meme of Trench Crusade is a real tabletop game now because someone was saying the map was racist
I can accept the forces of hell and the French and the ruination of Constantinople but Greater Moravia? Totally ruined my immersion
Mali winning Northern Africa? I can only suspend my disbelief so far!
ihugyugh
why do they call them mortis (death) operatives when the whole point is to survive, anyway?
It's cool, they're hardasses with a mortis motif, they do missions with a mortis level of lethality or whatever it said in the secret level with Titus
who knows
Are they atleast navy in colour?
next thing you'll tell me rangers aren't actually power rangers
Why is he called Iron Man when he’s really made of a titanium composite alloy?
because my zenis is iron hard
titanium composite alloy man
there
much better
Really rolls off the tongue
The Adamantium Ceramite Composite Hands
That being said, first
Unless it was really annoying about it
wait… again?

definitely the second
I don't want my turlet to gurgle its cravings at me when I walk into the bathrooms
didn't you say you were not coming back here?
At least it’s not as bad as my first impression here 
It can get worse
Worse than your first impression


cowardice
hopefully never see yall again
nooo
ONE OF US ONE OF US ONE OF US ONE OF US ONE OF US
wonder how far that optimism's gotten him

WEARKLING, COME AND FIGHT
let me be a coward in peace last time I was here people were gooning over minis
The perfect life
This is just average Laati brain activity again
Hey does someone have that nightlords meme
That’s like
‘There are no good guys in warhammer’
And he’s just wearing a skin dress
Brain activity?
Yes brain activity
Thank you
No predicting his brain activity about as consistent as the shoot spread of a shoota
i've been going to the gym but why hasn't khorne blessed me with huge muscular mantits yet
Because you haven't killed a guy
Come on bro blood for the blood god
I thought casual devotion was enough
Casual and khorne don't really mix
in a twisted way, it looks beautiful
hello, fabius bile
Why's it always skin with these guys; why cant they instead wear sinew or muscle or bones?
I’d say they wear bone pretty often
It's called Neurodivergence for a reason Bulgur

I mean that chaos marine is pretty much telling to the world "I will wear you, because I was not touched and loved"
or something like that
Burgur
I find your joke funny lizard man
I shall not curse your fallen today
Why thank you
Wouldn't be surprised if Chaos tried to fake a Fallen incident to distract the Dark Angels forces or something
Two things come to mind
Like they just plant a group of CSMs somewhere else with green colored armor
Have them stab some people and fake some transmissions
Cypher and alpha legion teamed up
"We have Dark Angel Traitors helping us out"
My guy you post some of the most random things here so do part of my skepticism
And then watch as half the SM forces divert somewhere else automatically
Plus the secret wars whatever the fuck those were
Or forgotten wars?
I don’t remember
Yeah ok forgotten wars
And it was in fact half of the entire dark angels
💀
IK it's the point but genuinely what the fuck are they thinking
like
if all their actions came into light then they would be even more cooked
Honestly it's funny to think that the DA would have a higher chance of being purged now than if they just say
"Yeah we have some traitor elements"
Like every fucking SM faction had traitors
Yep
But they got ego.
Plus ig the scouring was a time where they would’ve been executed they thought
Even though a bunch of primarchs were still around
And would vouch for em
I guess bc they were reminded of the Thunder Warriors
"We've had some traitors"
"Oh that's fine, we've all had that"
"And we've purged entire worlds to keep it secret"
"....you what?"
Weird thing about that
The whole
Hunt thing
And decided "Nope, we aren't dying on a 'mountain'"
Started with the thunder warriors
Like even during the heresy they were worried one might pop up
Constant undercover hunt
Killed multiple inquisitors for it too
part of the whole 'DAs obsessed with secrets' has one of the few utilities of this being essentially impossible
And almost bombed the space wolves home
since chaos wouldnt really know that or be able to exploit it
i imagine in general DAs could well be wholly impenetrable to Alpha Legion shenanigans specifically because of how obsessed with secrets they are
💀
there's not really any infiltrating a chapter that has a secret handshake for every door you pass through
Yeah that was a whole thing
What about the whole sleeper agent thing
See
Actually getting into the DA like that
Impossible
But you can defo still fool them
how do you even access the sleeper agents
externally dark angels are like a black box
yeah they're not omniscient
I think like some of their code words are like
i just mean the infiltration schema that alpha legion's used to destroy other chapters
Straight up entire campfire stories
Set timer
Still kinda unreliable but the point is to basically massacre a bunch of people anyways
Ruin geneseed storage
that type of shit
also in terms of mental manipulation, the dark angels make liberal usage of mind-scrubbing
Also that’s another thing actually
The dark angels are all sleeper agents
The integrator chaplains have put in code phrases to literally turn them all off
Even the grandmasters
Asmodai turned off Belial and erased his memory when he tried to kill cypher
💀
no guarantee anything you do to a sleeper agent will survive even the basic inductions of the dark angels
Counter sleeper agent thing
in terms of operational security they seem to be essentially unassailable to alpha legion
It’s extremely funny
plus there's the whole fact that they literally have their own special secret language
It would be funny if there was fucking
like
sleeper agent brainwashing conflict
Ye plus all the calibanite languages
so the moment someone tries to go "WAKE UP JOE BIDEN" that'll immediately set off alarm bells since you can't even make a code phrase that is inoccuous
Lmao
Brother Bob: "brain... mush... who am I agai-"
It's just a constant usage of sleeper agent phrases that turns Bob against and for each faction

I did like
In the end, he basically fucking collapses into a fetal position due to the amount of mental damage
A thing with my fallen, where they used the codes words on some loyal DA
To make them forget shit
Didn’t end well, but it’s a fun plot point
and even if you did get sleepers in, because the DA are essentially a black box, you couldn't even give them meaningful targets
I had the idea of like
Two Traitor Guardsmen accidentally finding out a code phrase through sheer coincidence
and now basically having a pet DA

Lmao
I really love the 30k method they had
Where you give all your officers a piece of the puzzle
"Sic em!"
DA fucking barks as he chases a poor Krieger on all fours
If the DA became full traitors, they would totally fall to Tzeentch
...honestly that sounds more interesting than the actual DA
Then again they would be Alpha Legion 2 at this rate
I still HC that AL are technically part of Tzeentch's group.
They just don't know it (maybe)
And that's the point.
They lie.
if we're talking wish fulfillment lore, getting the Dark Angels to hunt down Alpha Legion instead of their X+1 fallen would essentially be the perfect solution
the Uninfiltratable vs the Exclusively Infiltrators
I really love like
After all, it would makes sense that the God of Lies would get a faction that doesn't know they're part of the God lmao
The different reasons they give for the fallen going to each god
The only one that actually comes to mind is nurgle
Is it them being too lazy to purge the fallen

And it’s like, they’re so desperate to get something like caliban’s forests again, that they go to him for his gardens
Not for the plague, but his forests and worlds
It’s neat
Neat idea but also really funny
"I NEED TO TOUCH GRASS!!!!!"
Bros just want a cabbage patch
Lolol
gets infected by 10 billion diseases
Imagine being a ship menial crashing on a nurgle planet
Finally seeing the sun
and plants
only to fucking die because you got 10000 diseases in a single second

"Oh wow this is so beautiful AUGGGGGG-"
how do fallen sustain themselves after 10,000 years
space marines need to go to the clinic and get their blood pressure tested constantly
But then the pain leaves you and you are met with a warm embrace 
Certainly nothing bad has happened 
They’re not that old mostly
They got thrown through time when Caliban exploded
So they just pop up at different times
oh that makes sense
Like any renegade astartes.
Raiding, manipulating, making deals, meals, and subterfuge.
This post was pretty funny
I’ll give it credit
what's the point behind a plasma-stub gun combigun?
does 40k use the Halo plasma pistol combo?
...why does it have a weird
spiked
appendage
is it for pistol whipping?
Who the fuck would try to pistol whip with a plasma pistol
it's a house goliath weapon so most definitely

Most likely for cost, use stub gun for most targets, when you need to kill something tough use plasma
Gangers aren’t made out of money
They’ll take cost cutting corners imo
why does tzeentch like chickens
like I get the whole ravens and crows thing
but lords of change look kinda ridiculous the more I look at them over time
Ravens are a particularly prominent figure as the trickster archetype in mythology, from nordic myth with Odin to Canadian aboriginal myth with The Raven
Thats mostly it I think?
i get the ravens and birds thing
its just lords of change dont exactly look like evolved birds
they look a lil goofy
Well yeah they're daemons
blue and pink horrors I do like
I wish they leaned more into sea creatures tbh for daemon designs
Behold, a man!
I’m gonna pluck you
😳
like a keeper of secrets looks strange too, but that really looks like some kinda exalted greater daemon you dont wanna run into
lord of change is like " oh goddamn what happened to you "
Man the things I do to see more octopus/weird sea creature daemons of Tzeentch
Lesser daemon of Tzeentch thats a sea cucumber with legs
i like the horrors and burning chariots
and the flamers
also chosen of tzeentch and chaos knights of tzeentch look absolutely dope
they look prettier than sigvald could imagine
doom knights of tzeentch are a nice unit thematically too
Dont say that in front of Sigvald
flying tzeentch knights is cool, the surfboard aesthetic less so
of course I want some caped chaos warriors on a fast flying disc
all blue and glittery
it beats riding a rotbeast or looking like a chicken
I wish the Doom Knights had a skater bro personality as they skate rainbows and death over lines of infantry
Nerds
do they ransack libraries
well
Probably discuss philosophy or what sort of philosophies other cultures discuss
Are pretty much librarians
you can always play the hip new Warhammer: Return of Reckoning for an in-depth immersive personal view of a Tzeentchian Warband
"One coin goes to the Raven God."
"How goes the war?"
"Carry more wealth. Sell your goods for gold."
I sorta wish the Tzeentch aligned factions in TWW3 had all their infantry use limited sets of magic
With like high chances of miscasting
too op
I know but they should know these magics!
Doesn’t fit WHFB
his lords and heroes can already cast basically nonstop
Tzeentch aligned != mage
it does make sense that they can have passive have magical auras that do buffs and debuffs
even passive dmg
In AoS allowing basic infantry to chuck spells regularly
Isn’t a big deal
From a tabletop perspective
What sort of gifts would an average warrior of Tzeentch get then if he was not interested in casting spells?
And so the lore was built around that for both settings
Lots of different fighting techniques, knowledge of the enemy
the prettier armor in the chaos realms
Weaknesses in armor
Ect.
Knowledge that’s useful when you’re beating the life out of someone
Id imagine they'd get precogition stuff too, like seeing 9 seconds into the future
also you get a shot at turning into a hybrid chicken daemon prince, which beats turning into a blood fuelled berserker, a diseased blob dude or a pimp ig
Sorcery is also separate form Psyker powers
tzeentch warriors at least in AoR's original design experienced heavy mutations
Yeah that also
presumably moreso than other gods' warriors
also you can look at the tzeentch mortals for example
CRAB HAND
Beneficial mutations
like aekold has that healing aura he emits nonstop
Is always fun
Can't be snuck up upon if you have eyes behind you ig
and windblade
CRAB HAND, SWORD HAND, CLUB HAND
Carcanization cannot be escaped
and vilitch has that curse and piggyback rides his musclebound norscan warlord brother
and egrimm is well, fairly magical, so nvm that
also tzeentch warriors might have higher frequencies of enchanted armor
the appearances of their armor certainly looks like it
but aekold is a good example tbh
of just not throwing spells around as a mortal but being super tzeentch
"YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD I STABBED YOU!"
"Nuh uh, I have the nuh uh rune tattooed on my skin (thank you Tzeentch)"
Watch out for T'zell'Arch'Daargh the 9 handed, where he has two crab arms, two sword arms, three axe arms, one spear arm, and one free arm with 3 thumbs
Who needs armor
they actually do need armor
Yeah
Tzeentch and Slaanesh have some similar preferences I see

So better change into a state of having armor
I think Tzeentch hates Khorne and Nurgle
But I don't think there's any overlapping domains for Slaanesh and Tzeentch
So logically they would hate each other the least
slaanesh has some trippy monsters though
they all ahte each other
and some truly evil chariots
Yeah just
Different levels of it
also, in the Chaosian Mythos, everyone has an axe to grind against Tzeentch because he used to be the top dog
and would lord over them
Like I can imagine Tzeentch and Slaanesh casually doing some collabs because they both agree it would be really funny
Very much the same for Khorne and Nurgle; they hate each other the least and more likely to team up on the other two
Nurgle doesnt seem like a hater
He is one
tzeentch's main animosity is nurgle iirc
ik
because their profiles are diametrically opposed
but nurgle doesnt seem like hed ever frown ig
Tzeentch is the only one he truly dislikes
well tzeentch undoes his stuff
Also y'know
One of stagnancy the other one is change
nurgle's trying to wither away everything, tzeentch makes it all live on in Annihilation-style cancer
sorta really steps on his shoes
Again wouldn't be surprised if lile

The Chaos Gods view themselves and the warp as like
Roommates.
The Warp as one large TTRPG
They live in a house
The Emperor is a child they had to babysit for a bit
But later on became a regular because he's fun
had the start of a fanfiction once about an aeldari who had to go into the realms of chaos to retrieve a mcguffin
I wonder if khorne has like an explosive ish temper or hes consistently just simmering
wonder if i still have the draft
imo simmering
In the depictions we've had in AoS and 40k
he seems very "calm"
outwardly
until something ticks him off
kratos like yes
Simmering
We never get to see him actually snap
he also sits on the bone chair all the time
Which is kinda scary
which has to take some level of self-control
Nah he's just old
Literally
He is the oldest Chaos God
He's been at this game longer than the rest
i dont know if thats true
And he isn't gonna let some golden upstart young'un ruin it for him
although he did get mad at skarbrand i guess, it wasnt like he casually exiled him right
I mean Skarbrand did try to fucking kill him
in 40k at least its implied khorne, nurgle, and tzeentch are all paradoxically ancient
well yeah
I think he might've been proud lmao
also just exiling skarbrand is arguably a massive showing of restraint
as opposed to exploding him with his mind or whatever
"Huh, this is a new feeling: Pride in someone else. Unfortunately it's overshadowed by all this UNYIELDING RAGE."
I mean skarbrands exiling is a credit to skarbrand, hes truly khornate, he was already his no1 bloodthirster when he took a potshot at khorne
It's the equivalent of sending your kid to college


Again I literally view the Chaos Gods more as Roommates playing just
A long running game
It's just that to the 40k universe, they're incomprehensible, unchangeable beings
Gork and Mork are the local jocks
well nurgle is famously a chill dude
Khorne tries to beat them in the bench pressing competition in the gym but they
Keep
Beating him
nurgles so chill he doesnt have a fortress or citadel or palace, he lives in a nice mansion with a garden
So chill that he literally cannot be bothered.
...also has a woman chained in his basemen-
Isha is actually just Nurgle's body pillow.
and come on nurglings are like the best lesser daemons
💀
I still think that Beasts of Nurgle are
Lowkey the cruelest thing
Their existence is literally to suffer
without knowing why
... So basically life
Ironically enough
But Nurgle basically made them unable to see that they're hurting people
So they don't understand why everyone is running away
And they become so depressed they change into a Hell Insect basically
Either that or they do finally realize, and it crushes them so much they turn into a hell insect.
there's at least some mentions alluding to the fact that Nurgle does have a temper like any other chaos god
Either way they were made happy just so that they can become miserable
"Nurgle becomes aware of his learnings, and distills the information for future experiments and brews. For this reason, Epidemius focuses on his task even in the midst of battle, for if he were to make an error or untimely observation, Nurgle's anger would be dire indeed."
Like that is next level sadism
...
So basically your average fanfic writer
It's either smut or torture
No inbetween
SUFFERING BUILDS CHARACTER.
Would it ever be recommended to pump an ogryn full of combat drugs and muscle enhancers?
I find it funny that means that Nurgle is basically a clean freak in this instance
He spills a bit of his soup
And goes ballistic

"FUCK. HOW AM I GOING TO CLEAN THIS UP?"
"Bro bro bro BRO! BRO WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! YOU'RE SPILLING THE SOUMP!"
Perfectly contradictory. I love it
"Due to this and his prior insubordination, Rotigus would inform the still-regenerating Ku'gath in the Warp that both he and Mortarion had earned Nurgle's ire. Ku'gath would not be able to re-manifest into the Materium for quite some time, and even worse had lost his status as the most favored of Nurgle's Daemons."
Imagine Nurgle is like an OCD clean freak at the same time
far from the jolly good fellow of memelore
He wants his plants perfectly messy
He wants that pile of shit perfectly shaped and placed in THAT specific corner
No other corners

Tbf Nurgle represents more depression than actually being chill
And depression can cause you to become easily angered
So depressed you find solace in practically nothing and gaslight yourself into thinking all is well
Like from my experience it's a mix between absolute numbness and "I want to fucking die I hate everything why is LIFE LIKE THIS"
And I think Nurgle's temper represents that
Either he doesn't care or he cares too much
Also represented by how GUO treat nurglings
plague ogres i guess
They "care" about them until they step on them while walking around or try eating one
kugath and nurglings are hilarious
i think just in many ways nurgle is genuinely sadistic, the embodiment of shadenfreude if you will
They actually did that during the HH.
taking joy in other's misery
his slime trail is literally made by nurglings getting constantly crushed under his chair
The Charonites?
Yeah. And also just drugging Ogryns with so much drugs they go ballistic
I thought the slime trail made was just their skin being incredibly greasy and oily
These Ogryns don't have their limbs replaced
Man I want some units like that
They just are on a lot of drugs and would probably like
Die of a heart attack in 16 minutes
But hey they will most likely gore an SM
was it? I thought kugaths slime trail was made because nurglings carry him around him and keep getting crushed under his chair
"mansion" is a bit of an archaic word here, since it's clearly a giant castle
He is an abuser basically
The equivalent of a drunk dad beating his children
And then telling them
yeah precisely
"You made me do this, it's your fault."
very grim stuff
It could be both tbf
Also why he genuinely scares me the most
it could be yeah
And also makes Mortarion unfortunate
Since he has had
3 dads
i love the use of optical illusions in that map as an aside
none of them like him either, even remotely
There is his first adoptive dad.
Total asshole, basically tortured him.
Then there is the Emperor.
Total asshole, basically ignored him.
Then finally there's nurgle
Total asshole, literally the embodiment of abuse
Like give my guy an actual dad
Mortarion and his three gay dads
and then guilliman also told him " Hey bro? Im your daddy"
The saddest part is that uh
The only reason why he sold his soul to Nurgle was that his sons were basically being tortured
It was either watching them suffer for eternity
Or selling his soul
...and he chose the latter.
I wonder what would've happened if he chose the former
typhus is the real chad, he was just so into nurgle and done with morty
Ironically enough. The Death Guard is basically a perpetuation of abuse
of course
nurgles great for videogames though
I know why Slaanesh isn't in video games for
Obvious fucking reasons.
But I am still disappointed honestly.
Why can't I fight Daemonettes at least
the aesthetic and vernacular of flowers and gardens and infections is a nice coat of paint and youve got nurgle buffs and debuffs, slow moving heavy hp units and fast moving weak zombies and plagues for game designers to basically do whatever they want
I think that they should go towards more like
Artistic stuff rather than just drugs and BDSM
In terms of Slaanesh designs
id like more khorne tbh
Like Greek statue type of shit
Had an idea of a Slaaneshi Daemon Machine basically being a Statue of David looking mf
I dont want doom and then I get to say oh this is khornlike, I want a dedicate khorne game where you actually face a proper khornate problem
Also it would be funny for the juxtaposition to have these clearly brutalist and robotic machines.
...and then you have metal giant handsome squidward
me? im a huge Undivided enjoyer
Again I am genuinely disappointed there's no FPS game where you play as a CSM.
Do you know how fun that would be?
only with all four can you bring the ultimate end to the galaxy
FPS horror game: Trials of the Warp
And you have to freedom to do
Horrible actions
play an Aspiring Champion shooting his way through Space Hell
For no reason
Since the Imperium at least needs a small reason for shooting the guardsman
2 endings based on your gameplay: daemon princehood or chaos spawndom
undivided is nice and all but I feel like undivided gets so murky with how it works
I still feel like minor Chaos Gods are an untapped resource
And I'm sad that we don't have them
Maybe I should write like
Hades-esque interactions between them
That would be funny
like someone with all the marks should be kinda a cut above a nurgle only dude right? assuming they are both mortals of otherwise equal strength
or is that not a valid assumption
undivided is jack of all, master of none
a nurgle devotee is probably a plague marine, who has very limited capabilities
Again
Rogue-like Chaos RPG now
vs a chaos marine who's collected all 4 pokemons
power-wise it doesnt really work on a linear scale, thankfully
But that pokemon is level 100, with 4 berries on him
Chaos Rogue-like NOW.
Imagine duo blessing interactions
but with like very few exceptions, to become a daemon prince (arguably the entire point of becoming chaos in the first place) you have to EVENTUALLY sign on to one of them
Now that would be finny
Chaos is late-stage capitalism, and becoming a Daemon Prince is essentially becoming a manager
how do you become undivided anyway, since you have to be devoted enough to get at least one mark, and then be devoted enough to get 3 more
Get multiple blessings
worship them all as a pantheon
practically speaking that is
Agree to nothing
undivided are badass because, in a way, they're refusing to play the game as they should
instead, it's purely just out of sheer spite and hatred for the material world
abaddon could've sold out at any moment but he hates reality so much he wants to destroy it instead
some top tier nihilism there
Undivided is basically a start-up company.
With few exceptions, if you want to become big, eventually you will sell out.
Unless if you're solo grinders like Abaddon, the Arkifane, etc.
i prefer archie
his journey is a nice read, mostly for all the absurd shit one hoomie dude pulls off
all warbands are startups
undivided are just being idealistic prissies
I now have the funny idea of basically having each Daemon realm be one big Skyscraper
With like
"KHORNE.INC"
or something as a sign

I didn't know that GW is Chaos.
All the daemons wear suits and are employees
the whole point of it all is to make your multi-millions with a successful venture and live out your days in some mcmansion east of the bay
Also it's just funny to imagine a bloodthirster being like
DO YOU HAVE A STAPLER?
sips coffee with blood and cream
I NEED IT TO TURN IN THE SKULLS TO THE BOSS.
probably playing with karanak in the parking lot I dunno
accounting
if the balance sheets aren't consolidated, he MAKES them consolidated
Due to the fact that Angron was actually meant to be empathetic.
How about putting him in HR

kharn is their best salesperson
slams Gorechild on desk
"YOU CAN FUCKING MURDER PEOPLE."
contractors
you're not in the corp unless you're a daemon, rules are rules
I mean even the companies turning on each other if they become too powerful is basically like
Fake competition
They don't want one to become a COMPLETE monopoly otherwise it will interfere with the Warp's Economy
skarbrand is the unpaid intern
well in 40k its real, so much so that it's mentioned on numerous occasions that they are more or less disinterested in material affairs as a whole
in favor of wrestling with each other for marginal increases of market share
The Intern Training tapes
For Khorne you put it in
It's just
"KILL MAIN BURN"
Repeated for 15 minutes
khorne really is a swell guy, he gave eternal heavenly bliss to a whole army of orks once
and they didnt even have to do anything to earn it
he did?
yeah iirc the story goes an ork warband was rampaging through his domain so he just made it so they constantly come back when they die valhalla-style
so they can fight forever
lmao
Basically heaven
For them
how did an ork warband get to his domain
The krumpin never ends
they hijacked a portal?
well warp travel by its very nature takes you into the warp
Traveled straight into the eye of terror
as the name implies
From what I understand, Tuska Daemon-killa killed a daemon prince by pinching his balls with a power-klaw, which amused Khorne, so after Tuska died, they were revived in Khorne's domain IIRC
yeah that's right
its been a very long time
"Tuska made his mark in the Eye of Terror, by defeating the Daemon hordes on several Daemon Worlds, and seemed unstoppable until his Waaagh! crash-landed on a flesh planet. The planet belonged to a mighty Daemon Prince of Khorne[2] known as the Blood Prince, who soon led his Daemonic hordes against the invading Orks. In the battle that followed, Tuska suffered many deep wounds and his Boyz took heavy losses. Just as the Blood Prince was about to finish Tuska, his Weirdboyz managed to distract the Daemon using their psychic powers, giving Tuska enough time to impale the creature between its legs with his Power Klaw before being killed himself[1]. The Warboss’ vast horde was later eventually slain to an Ork by the wrathful Daemon Prince and his minions.[2]
However, the story did not end there for Tuska. Khorne had such joy in watching the murderous spectacle, that he ensured that Tuska's Waaagh! rose once more the very next dawn. Now, the Orks repeat the fight over and over again, for the Blood God was so impressed by their limitless battlelust that he took the Orks into his own domain. In the shadow of the Brass Citadel, his elite Bloodletter generals battle against Daemon-Killa’s undying horde on a daily basis[2]. This suits the Warboss just fine: he has finally found a good fight that never ends.[1]"
the idea of a warboss pointing at the eye of terror and going "AIGHT BOYZZZ WARP IN LETZ FUCKIN GOOOOOOOO"
surprised more orks dont do that
in fact, imagine how many imperial crises were averted because of gigantic Waaaghs doing exactly that
Likely many do, but many also dont make as much of a spectacle as Tuska did, so they're just casted aside
Bro literally ripped out a Daemon prince's balls.
He might not be able to truly die, but that's a situation where I'd wish for true death

How could I ever dare to live on after that
daemon princes are gods of their own personal dimensions, so he probably just self-healed immediately after
It's like how Fulgrim fucking withered away back into the warp after getting Virus Bombed
The physical damage may heal
But the mental?
Nah bro
That's gonna stay inside that Prince's mind for the rest of his existence
Tuska basically lives in his mind rent free now
I guarantee it

Have to say this Ushoran book came out of nowhere
I don't think they've even talked about this before
Alright so had an idea for Hades-like blessings.
Basically what do you think about this list?
The Four:
- Slaanesh
- Nurgle
- Khorne
- Tzeentch
Minor/Aspiring
- Vash'torr
- Malal
- Be'lakor
Alt. Paths:
- The Greater Good
- The Emperor
- Cegorach
- Undivided
The Primordal Chaos equivalent:
- The Dark King
Lmao:
- Nuffle
nuffle has more place being there than the greater good to my knowledge
I would imagine the Alt. Paths would be with a blessless/challenge run.
I have had the idea of classes/different starts.
Baseline, Psyker, Heretek, SM all that shit
I mean
Tau'va does exist so
They count

Idk what would their purpose would be though
every second interaction with Dil is basically:
i just realized the newest tabletop starterkit is called the "ULTIMATE STARTER SET"
which is a little ambitious
Already got a meme ready for this
Chuck in the Raptor God
for Minor/aspiring
Oh shit ofc
Does the Raptor God accept Baselines
Or is it mainly just SMs
YOU GOTTA BE FUCKING KIDDING ME 😭 😭 ☠️
black library but it's all mp3 files

does khorne have an animal in his aesthetic like the other gods
like how tzeentch has crows, nurgle has flies and frogs, slaanesh has snakes and crabs
Dogs
Jinx
LMAO
ahh true true

Also to erm acktually you Grubbus: technically Tzeentch is more associated with ravens than crows
Also IIRC at one point Slaanesh was to be more associated with ants and bugs
Though the latter no one really associates ants with Slaanesh anymore so

🤓
DAMN I GOT ACKTUALLY'D
So, between Ork hunters and Catachan, what are the differences between them? Aside from coming from different planets and their main targets.

Man's best friend
NO WAY
