That would be horrifying to witness

#

Dude I just found the lore on Zola pogryn

#

Didn't realise she was a criminal before the inquisition

arctic talon
plush mason
#

it has?

dapper gyro
#

Cyberman

plush mason
arctic talon
#

And she got arrested

#

So yeah

crisp heath
#

I havnt looked into any lore since the memories of morrow came out , barely been playing long too

plush mason
#

to hear her talk of the torrent the enforces had given up on it long before she was born

#

so the cartel was the one enforcing "law" there

crisp heath
#

She was with the water cartel , they took her in because of her knowledge and intelligence around tertium

arctic talon
#

Yeah that stuff is new

sly ivy
#

How was ur tv show

dapper gyro
#

Story wise, her last log is pretty close to the event of the prison break.

crisp heath
#

Prison break the TV show?

tall plinth
#

idk about you guys but its kinda on the necrontyr for trusting an entity called the deciever

#

Are there any Imperial Knight houses that have been taken over by GSCs?

An Error of Judgement

The Genestealer Cult of the Withering Worm attempt to infiltrate the Noble bloodline of House Belligerus. They quickly learn the magnitude of their mistake when the conditioning of the Nobles’ thrones aids them in resisting the broodmind, though not without great struggle. In a single night of fire and violence, the cult cells are driven into the open and exterminated like vermin by Belligerus’ Knights.

#

tldr

#

Throne mechanicum is uh

#

very protective

outer wave
#

Damn

#

So the Throne Mechanicum can recognize infected members of the house?

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

there's also uh

#

this really really old knight house

#

not a suspcious symbol at all

outer wave
#

Damn we need GSC Imp Knights

#

That sounds like a cool idea

tough haven

queen laurel
#

IPS n mechs can basically become like titans from Titanfall

arctic talon
#

Sekhemet is uh

#

Special

queen laurel
arctic talon
queen laurel
#

manual control right

arctic talon
#

well yeah

#

but if you add an NHP

#

it can take control

#

Sekhmet is different once you activate her protocol lol

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

no

#

Sekhemet is just really funny

queen laurel
arctic talon
arctic talon
#

so yeah

#

its extremely possesive of its pilot

#

it literally imprints on you

#

if you fall unconscious or die sekhemet protocol activates as a "protection" state

#

lol

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

one tiny tiny issue

#

Sekhmet identifies

#

everything as a potential danger to you

#

And so she'll take over control of your mech and kill anything around you

#

within vision

#

doesn't matter if its allied or an enemy

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

if it has an IFF tag

#

if it has a pulse

#

its valid

queen laurel
#

That was my banana split

#

apparently it found microbes on

#

it

#

and decided it was a danger to my health

arctic talon
#

well

#

those don't have a pulse

#

oh also

#

if you have a Goblin hanging off of you

#

via symbiosis

#

Sekhemet will target it

#

and then start sawing into your own mech

#

to kill your friend

#

lol

#

Its the funniest NHP

#

in a gameplay sense due to how weirdly you have to play with it

sacred ginkgo
#

Any callout for that has to sound insanely edgy

arctic talon
#

I'm turning on Sekhemet because it is funny

arctic talon
#

ignore the fact they're pretty much chained down compressed eldritch entities

#

that are made to think like a human/person

sacred ginkgo
#

And don't ask what happens when they get out of the box

arctic talon
#

I LOVE CASCADES

arctic talon
#

or something interestsing

#

because you can be seen as an interesting thing

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

the Agni NHP is uh

#

the one with PTSD

queen laurel
#

titanfall like mechs

#

i like

arctic talon
#

and the one you should cycle

#

every year max

queen laurel
#

time to add a NHP to my mech

arctic talon
#

find one you like

#

lol

queen laurel
#

does the main big companies have their own versions of it

arctic talon
#

11

#

they're frame specific

#

well

#

liscence specific

#

aside from the technophile or iconoclast NHPs

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

if we include those

#

then the number jumps up to 14/15/13 depending how you count it

#

With the unstable nhp and then the Servent/student/enlightened NHP

EISENHORN YOU CAN'T SAY THAT

winter vessel
arctic talon
verbal path
#

Can't believe Eisenhorn plays on console.

winged jacinth
#

If anything i'd expect the average inquisitor to be more generally hateful than they're portrayed as

winter vessel
#

I imagine them like squidward

#

When it comes to social skills

winged jacinth
#

I get that they mostly have to be likeable because they're usually primary characters but i imagine they're mostly the type of people to order random beatings of abhumans

#

They're the secret police of an interstellar hate empire

hallow basin
winged jacinth
#

Dont they select for zeal?

hallow basin
#

Depends. They mostly select for abilities

winged jacinth
#

Though i guess that would mean ordo xenos inquisitors would on the whole be less hateful to imperials than hereticus

#

The ordo malleus is too busy hunting down heretical inquisitors from the ordo malleus

#

I always found that so funny, i imagine its emergent from the writing process rather than a concious choice but it seems like the #1 producer of heretic inquisitors is internal affairs lol

young pecan
#

8 pages ago he's very educatedly explaining why mutants call themselves "twists" and that, despite it being a slur, it becomes a word of comradery and stops being a slur when they say it amongst themselves

#

In "twist disguise" he is still saying it anyway so

#

Yeah true

#

Just strangely educated for someone who doesn't quite care

opaque coyote
#

DC AU political compass

winged jacinth
#

he hangs out with cherubael hes not really an ethical guy tbh

#

i cant be bothered to read all of these but what the hell was earth-23 about lmao

young pecan
#

He's very unhappy with Cherubael where I'm at in the story

opaque coyote
#

the justice league but black

winged jacinth
#

was obama actually superman

#

which of these continuities has dogwelder

opaque coyote
#

oh no wait batman isn't

opaque coyote
winged jacinth
#

"new earth" apparently

#

why would superman be president thats the worst secret identity of all time

opaque coyote
#

why are there two dog welders

winged jacinth
#

first one died

#

so did the second one but he did it awesome style

#

its a bloodline power

spare osprey
winged jacinth
#

superman's like "hmm my private life will be well hidden as the most public figure in the world"
"no one has ever looked closely at a picture of the president before"

#

unless he's openly president superman

#

wait superman cant be president

#

he was born on krypton not in the US

hallow basin
young pecan
#

Yeah

winged jacinth
#

yeah eisenhorn is an agent-type

opaque coyote
young pecan
#

I think more than anything it was funny getting the shock value from Eisenhorn casually dropping that

opaque coyote
#

presumably ma and pa kent made adoption forms

#

and due to the fact that he usually drops in kansas

#

well

winged jacinth
#

you gotta know whats going on to be a sneaky type guy

opaque coyote
#

legally supes is a citizen

young pecan
#

"Hive-scum lord RE"

opaque coyote
#

"I have no fucking clue"

#

oh no wait the flash is white also

winged jacinth
#

hes so small

#

they took away his lightning ears

#

i mostly dont read comics but "Clark, those were for charity" is one of the great panels of all time

opaque coyote
#

its uncanny

spare osprey
#

PRESIDENT LUTHOR WOOOOO

winged jacinth
opaque coyote
#

body switching

#

aka the VAs do an impression of like

#

the character that they got switched with

spare osprey
#

oh yeah it was great

opaque coyote
#

also the Flash's VA actually voiced Lex Luthor beforehand

spare osprey
#

them having to act like the other

opaque coyote
#

I think Smallville

winged jacinth
opaque coyote
#

So I think he just did his Lex voice

spare osprey
#

always fun

opaque coyote
#

so yeah michael rosenbaum has experience with both the flash and lex luthor

#

and I think that's the main reason why they made the episode in the first place

winged jacinth
# winged jacinth

i like this bit because the flash is like... the only one with a good secret identity

#

like being a reporter is a pretty bad one people are paying attention to you

#

just have a normal ass job

#

i like it for spider-man but only because hes really busy so selling pictures of spider-man is a good source of quick cash

opaque coyote
#

Like ironically enough I think his disguise is good.

#

Because like, you see this farmboy working

#

Sure you see him built like a brick house

#

But at the same time, the dude trips down the stairs at times

#

Does good journal work though

#

Like being a reporter gives him an excuse to actually investigate crime and shit

#

Without y'know, needing to investigate in full spandex

dapper gyro
opaque coyote
#

You suddenly try using the super hearing

#

and then you just hear the sounds of the city

#

cars beeping, horns honking, people talking all at once

#

like ofc he isn't gonna like

#

keep it on all the time

dapper gyro
#

The dude literally flow into orbit so he can hear people needing help all over the world...

#

He can single out sounds.

opaque coyote
#

i have no idea how but true

dapper gyro
#

He can also choose how many wall he wants to see through.

winged jacinth
#

i just mean like, people who read the paper know who clark kent is and what his face looks like

opaque coyote
dapper gyro
#

He can do some insanely stupid shit.

winged jacinth
#

you'd probably want a job where that wasnt the case

opaque coyote
#

cause like if it was realistic he would probably be able to just

#

catch every criminal

winged jacinth
#

superman consistent abilities challenge

opaque coyote
winged jacinth
#

i want a dc series where its revealed that the friction from all the super speed movement is contributing to global warming

dapper gyro
#

Lead blocks it because it is dense.

winged jacinth
#

superman is destroying the ozone layer by blasting through it every day

opaque coyote
#

I think my favorite scene was actually with Martin Manhunter. This is from the DC animated universe.

They tried to get him to find somebody by reading people's minds.

Turns out that reading people's thoughts aren't good since he starts hearing the daily selfish thoughts we have.

winged jacinth
#

thats why you have to do it D&D style and read their minds secretly while openly interrogating them

dapper gyro
#

So with all of the radiation from the X ray vision that Supe used to see through a fucking city... half of the population gets cancer.

opaque coyote
#

And he just hears like

#

Everyone's thoughts

#

around him.

#

at once.

#

And he basically undergoes a mental breakdown

winged jacinth
#

i wonder what the limits are to superman's glowing eyes

opaque coyote
#

It's actually a pretty goated episode, especially with how they actually resolved his crisis

winged jacinth
#

he can produce at least visible light to xray spectrum

#

laser eyes and xray vision should be the same power

dapper gyro
#

Also, M1 Abram has uranium armour, which is way denser than lead, yet the dude can see through it...

opaque coyote
#

Since canonically he can like

#

literally laser inside your brain

#

somehow

winged jacinth
#

they would be hes just shooting photons out his eyes

opaque coyote
#

And control it to such a fine point that he can like

#

temporarily disable parts of your brain

winged jacinth
#

xray vision itself doesnt make a whole lot of sense theres a reason we put xray film on the other side of the thing we're imaging

opaque coyote
#

He does it to Chester Black, and temporarily disabled his psychic powers because of it

dapper gyro
#

I mean, controlling all of that power so he can live normally is the actual superpower.

opaque coyote
#

But he also implies (and threaten due to him PRETENDING to be evil)

#

that he could've literally just lobotomized him

#

"Focus through your pupil like a scapel. Instant lobotomy."

winged jacinth
#

stylish but pretty unnecessary for a guy that can just poke a finger through your head

shadow plover
winged jacinth
#

oh god depleted uranium armor would be an ecological catastrophe

#

tankers would be getting cancer at unprecedented rates

dapper gyro
#

Btw, in the JLA, Manhunter is the second or third physically strongest in the team.

opaque coyote
#

lemme find the scene

winged jacinth
#

depleted uranium ammo is bad enough

opaque coyote
#

Keep in mind, he's acting the entire time

#

Like this is him basically pulling out his full actor chops for this.

winged jacinth
#

im sorry i really dont care supermans powers are basically his imagination

#

hence why he can carry a building without it falling apart

opaque coyote
opaque coyote
#

You can also turn him gay by using the pink version

#

It's still canon btw

#

Like it never got decanonized

dapper gyro
#

Uranium armour is what designed to defeat uranium ammunition.

winged jacinth
#

there was an experimental program that put depleted uranium forward armor on 5 tanks that was discontinued

opaque coyote
winged jacinth
#

they defeat DU with chobham style reactive armor

opaque coyote
#

oh yeah also kryptonite can make him high

dapper gyro
#

@shadow plover The depleted uranium alloy of the M1 has been described as "arranged in a type of armour matrix"[20] and a single module as a "stainless-steel shell surrounding a layer (probably an inch or two thick) of depleted uranium, woven into a wire-mesh blanket".[21]

Welcome to the modern warfare.

winged jacinth
#

depleted uranium is hard and dense but its completely incompatible with all of our active armor technologies and extremely hazardous to be around

opaque coyote
#

@winged jacinth silver specifically

dapper gyro
winged jacinth
#

chobham isnt even metal

dapper gyro
#

The "style" is composite layering, the materials in it are another.

opaque coyote
#

I love comics sometimes

dapper gyro
#

You never see a recent battle tank then... to say something made with layers of metal "not even metal"...

winged jacinth
#

the modern abrams armor is ceramic reactive chobham

#

they did trial metal modules but at least the DU one is long discontinued per the EPA

dapper gyro
#

Chobham is non reactive... are you high my man.

winged jacinth
#

it is a reactive armor, be it a non explosive one

shadow plover
winged jacinth
#

Non-explosive reactive armour (NxRA), also known as non-energetic reactive armor (NERA), is a type of vehicle armor used by modern main battle tanks and heavy infantry fighting vehicles. NERA advantages over explosive reactive armor (ERA) are its inexpensiveness, multi-hit capability, and ease of integration onto armored vehicles due to its non...

#

im finding conflicting information about DU plates in certain areas like the turret rear

#

or wait the backing of the turret armor sandwiches

dapper gyro
#

Because it is supposed to stay as a secret.

#

By which, we don't know the thickness of each material, nor the actual effectiveness. They only give a number and the rest are up to people to estimate.

#

It is why it is so important to capture a tank.

winged jacinth
#

all the DU info is old and i wouldnt be surprised if it was phased out given what we've learned from areas where DU munitions were used

#

but it was indeed integrated at one point

dapper gyro
winged jacinth
#

what the fuck are you talking about it was never in contention that the armor was layered

dapper gyro
#

You say what now?

winged jacinth
#

it does seem that at one point they integrated DU into some of the arrays at one point in development

#

NERA doesnt work unless its layered

#

thats the whole idea of it

#

i just didnt think it included a DU layer because thats insane

#

but i guess we didnt really know until we did studies in the aftermath of desert storm how bad it was

#

its insanely teratogenic

dapper gyro
winged jacinth
#

because i understood it to be layered nonmetals?

#

which it almost entirely is

dapper gyro
#

🤨

shadow plover
#

Chobham is just a catch-all term for layered armour which can be made of different materials, not just metals

winged jacinth
#

you know about ceramics right

dapper gyro
#

Yes

winged jacinth
#

metal is a pretty poor material for NERA except for tensile layers

dapper gyro
#

It is SiC, similar to the current body armour.

winged jacinth
#

metal is good at propagating shockwaves which is the opposite of what you want

dapper gyro
#

There is also B4C, which is more cost effective.

#

It is still the outer layers, back layers and others for the structural integrity of the armour.

dapper gyro

"During the first crusade, the Knights Templar found a demonic artifact sealed within the bowels of Jerusalem. Their hearts, filled with greed and slaughterlust, were too weak to resist and they rounded up the people of Jerusalem and sacrificed them to the artifact. The hungry orb greedily drank the lifebloods of the captives until it grew bloated with dark power. Then the sky and earth split and a burning gate to the hellish planes manifested itself. For their heresy the Templars were rewarded and transformed into monstrously powerful Heresiarchs to lead the armies of the damned in the war against all creation."

shadow plover
#

It do be like that

I've been delving into my scripture again in regards to what is taken from it to Trench Crusade. Specifically the 77 towers that are part of New Antioch's perimeter wall

shadow plover
#

afaik there are surprisingly many pretty obscure things referenced to so far

#

personally I have little to no idea of most of that stuff but I've heard it from people more familiar with the subject

vagrant fox
#

Iirc doubles of 7 show up a few times

winter vessel
#

the biggest one i can defer to is Psalm 77, which i think is very in line with the relationship the Faithful shares with Him in this setting.

#

from my scripture. in 77: 1 to 3 It reads as follows " I cried out to God with my Voice and he gave ear to me. In the day of my trouble i sought the Lord; my hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing, I remembered God, and was Troubled; I complained and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah

vagrant fox
#

7 alone shows up a lot as well and as I recall is a holy number

winter vessel
#

yes. it is very much associated with God. from the beginning of creation. the 7 Holy virtues in contrast to the 7 deadly sins. as well as the seven seals

#

6 being Luci's shtick

#

but going back, I do like the idea of Psalm 77:1-20 being the main reference to the 77 towers and new Antioch as a whole. TLDR version, it is a Psalm of Lament. One who cries out to God in anguish and confusion as to why they must suffer in the face of adversity. It begins in distress but it gradually turns to remembrance of the Lord's works, followed by reassurance through faith, and eventually Trust in Him.

opaque coyote
#

d

#

done their research on religions???

#

also

winter vessel
#

and that cycles out perfectly with the relationship of humanity has with the Almighty

opaque coyote
#

betting 15 fps

winter vessel
#

at least those who have faith in Him

opaque coyote
#

although he did literally like

#

wipe out an entire town didn't he?

#

although tbf if he's based off of the biblical god, his retributions are often uh

#

well there's a reason why awesome originally just meant terrifying

shadow plover
#

it's unclear what happened, if they were wiped out, ascended, saved, or whatever. It's just stated that "the city of x is no more" or something along those lines

dusky scroll
#

The fact that Tyranids have a hivemind. How did people/characters in Books/stories learned about it?

opaque coyote
#

we just

#

don't know

vagrant fox
#

"The English word "Christ," if we use a simple system where the letter "a" is equal to 1, "b" is two and so on to "z" being equal to 26, adds to 77. C is equal to 3, h is 8, r is 18, i is 9, s is 19 and t is 20 or 3 + 8 + 18 + 9 + 19 + 20 or 77."

It's multilayered pogryn

shadow plover
#

again, year 77

#

14 divided by two is also 7

winter vessel
#

i actually have a good reference to Argos being "taken by God and it is no more"

opaque coyote
#

Yeah 7 is basically a number for completion/perfection in the bible

#

6 by it's nature is incomplete, imperfect

#

falling short of the divine

#

humanity was created in the 6th day, and the two humans got kicked out of the garden (tm)

winter vessel
#

in the book of Genesis. it speaks of a man named Enoch. from chapter 5:21-24 it reads as follows "When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah. After he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked faithfully with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Enoch lived a total of 365 years. Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away."

opaque coyote
#

well

#

God

#

they're just God

#

either way i think he might be slightly disappointed because we literally

#

opened up hell

#

because we were too murderous in his name

#

in trench crusade at least

#

I can imagine the sigh of disappointment LMAO

winter vessel
opaque coyote
#

The after life

#

etc.

#

It's just a continuation of existence, except with God.

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

Therefore "taken"

arctic talon
#

lol

#

Also most people don't know

#

about the hivemind

#

a vast majority of people don't

#

most imperials think nids are dumb animals

opaque coyote

psyker goes insane

mfw you expect to hear one mind

Quadrillions

instead

your brain explodes

you die

queen laurel
vagrant fox

Titus being a goofy ass Mulder about the hive mind

arctic talon

but yeah most psykers who uh

tried

#

died

#

LOL

#

There's a few known psykers who've survived it

#

but most of them got crippled or had other horrific things happen

shadow plover
#

my boy Tigurius

winter vessel
# opaque coyote they're just God

TC in general fascinates me on what they take, speaking as a Non-denominational. even if they aren't as versed in Theology or if its their background. it is 1 thing to "know" but another thing to "understand"

vagrant fox
#

Who else than Mephiston got out of it fine?

shadow plover
#

Tigurius

vagrant fox
#

Ah, yeah, I misremembered a bit

dusky scroll
#

Other than the fact that Tyranids are hive mind, no other information was retrieved? Like, their goal or origin or whatever new lore?

winter vessel
vagrant fox
#

There's some excerpts

arctic talon
#

Tigerus's head almost fucking blew up

#

and anyone else who has tried

#

also has had their head almost blow up

dusk patrol
#

And Mephiston for what he can still do despite it

#

Tigurius is the most wild example because he directly pierced through a full on hive fleets Shadow

#

He passed out for weeks after but it worked and reinforcements arrived

#

For most basic psykers it debilitates them severely, often killing or breaking their minds

storm jungle
#

Man hes so cool

shadow plover
#

He's not gonna fuck you Dil

storm jungle
#

Yeah I know I was being sarcastic

storm jungle
#

Generic OP space marine character no.392

shadow plover
#

I know but I wanted to make your sarcasm backfire

storm jungle
#

It didnt 😔

dusk patrol
#

I’m not convinced Dil actually likes any 40k character so it’s ok

#

That’s basically high praise from her

storm jungle
#

Its okay for me to just not like stuff sometimes.

#

You dont need to be so upset about it

#

and thats alright

dusk patrol
#

I’m not, I expect it

storm jungle
#

Thats good, proud of ya

dusk patrol
#

It’s just literally every character so sarcastic praise is basically a love letter for Tigurius

storm jungle
#

I mean its Tigurius

#

what am I suppose to say lol

shadow plover
#

it's my favourite old man yelling at clouds person

summer mural
#

do gargants have like a hero type unit

shadow plover
#

the clouds are tyranids

storm jungle

He had a brain haemorrhage 😔

summer mural

because its brodd, and a bunch of individual gargants with different stats or roles

I dunno how they actually make their armies

queen laurel

I like the gargants a lot tbh, they seem similar to ogres

opaque coyote
storm jungle
queen laurel
#

they're big they eat things

dusk patrol
#

I’ll take it

storm jungle
#

so dont worry KEKW_ogryn

queen laurel
#

and because of their size they can basically

#

Do everything they want

#

most of the time

dusk patrol
#

Yeah there’s no standard issue lol

#

Just whatever big guns they’d had nearby when they made it

#

Or whatever crazy idea the Big Mek had

#

“What if gun that fires Grots at Mach 10?”

summer mural
dusk patrol
#

Or wait nvm wrong gargant

summer mural
#

so far bonereapers and gargants are my fav

#

in aos

#

still not clear about gargant hierarchy, but whatever

#

like is a kraken eater a stronger unit on paper than a gatebreaker

queen laurel
#

some really old guys can still like you know pursue being warstomper

summer mural
#

I guess this is..some kinda hierarchy

storm jungle
#

Biggest man with biggest stick leads

its caveman rules

dusk patrol

He can eat biggest thing

dusk patrol

It’s a Mukbang based society

the under heel is the big boss

dusk patrol

It’s a wrestling based hierarchy

shadow plover
#

these terms rule

#

toeing the line

#

hell yeah

summer mural
#

under the heel is other mega gargants who couldnt out gargant the heel

dusk patrol
#

So when he becomes the leader is it called a Heel turn?

#

Does he suplex the previous leader?

queen laurel
summer mural
#

do gargants have magic

queen laurel
#

basic infantry

queen laurel
summer mural
#

good

#

I hate magic

queen laurel
#

only really cracking eaters that put in effort

#

in learning magical tools

dusk patrol
queen laurel
#

do they have other race regiments

and half the ogre roster

yes

queen laurel
#

they are basically the same

#

Special units individuals you name it

celest dome
#

It's basically the same thing, the RoR are named groups that often (but not always) have additional rules

storm jungle
#

Yeah they are like probably the most simple "faction" with the most basic unit functions across all warhammer settings

summer mural
#

I know what regiments of renown are, Im just asking in the context of gargants, do they not have like..a unit thats a group

dusk patrol

They’re special versions of a generic unit you can buy generally

Or named character versions of a generic one

imagine being a bretonnian peasant

its a bretonnian peasant, would they even realize they're in aos

you can probably not tell brodd, he wont notice

you can bring him on literally every destruction army

Yeah its the normal AOS thing of factions that hate each other can team up because they hate someone more too

people assume everyone in-universe gets along in their own factions for some reason when thats like extremely far from the truth lol

storm jungle

Yeah but like

#

liking Ian is like saying you like chocolate

#

its not exactly a mindblowing new statement

#

He just tells lore, cites sources both in-universe and IRL etc, hes just a lexicanum but a person and does the job really well.

#

Luetin just... yaps too much. Which im glad if people like, its just not for me.

dusk patrol
#

My only complaint with Ian is all his thumbnails look like someone is holding a gun to his head making him take the photo

#

But taking thumbnail photos always seems like the dumbest shit ever based off all things I’ve heard about it

storm jungle
#

The fact that he even made a video mocking himself about it kinda sells it lol

dusk patrol
#

Just “soy face”

Use my explanation:
(1) Emperor did not want to be treated as a god at all (in spite of current policies) when he was around during Crusade Era.
(2) Normal human psykers are potential demonic gateways if they lose control.
(3) Points (1) and (2) means 40k Era IoM has to “justify” Emperor as a god instead of a psyker.

Ok. So the answer to this is yet another weird “yes and no” ish thing.
According to the Eisenhorn books, there is a weird in-between-currency for different worlds, but each world has its own monies and exchange rate to that centralised currency thing.

No, don’t ask me if it makes sense or if it works. Just thought to say it is at least remotely addressed.
