[astral burrow]

No reason to go anywhere else

[tough haven]

Reasonable options tbh

still gotta live as a part of the US though

[astral burrow]

Alaska, Canada, Japan are my dreams

[vagrant fox]

Can't use the turlet in winter so you shit in buckets and throw it outside, then spring thaw comes

[astral burrow]

Cuz I have great friends in all of them

[tough haven]

and theyre quite hostile to immigrants rn

[storm jungle]

Temporarily for a failed university masters program in the UK, I went back afterwards.

[astral burrow]

Aw

Wish I did that

[vagrant fox]

Can't fault you, the UK is a silly place

[astral burrow]

Hold old even are you

So many schools

[storm jungle]

31

[astral burrow]

Wow

Damn

[storm jungle]

I barely look the age though lol

[queen laurel]

Yeah she has more than 10 years in warhammer

[astral burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/kevin-hart-kevin-hart-damn-gif-22709278

[vagrant fox]

I'm not the oldest

[queen laurel]

Very weird use of time to be honest

[astral burrow]

13

13 years ago I was idk

Nearly baby

Was into transformers and shit

Mostly cars

[storm jungle]

Same

[astral burrow]

Pixar cars

[near wasp]

I was 11 thirteen years ago

[storm jungle]

I had a very masculine upbringing due to having 3 brothers lol

[astral burrow]

Back then I could actually find merch easily

[hallow plover]

Canada feelsbad rn. Then I look at europe and it comforts me

[astral burrow]

People actually sold stuff from other countries

[vagrant fox]

13 years ago I was miserably almost 18, how time flies

[astral burrow]

Canada has a person I would die to meet

So it is an option

[queen laurel]

I actually found warhammer at a very young age in a computer rental place

[astral burrow]

I didn't even know Warhammer existed before

[queen laurel]

The first character i ever picked was gorgutz

In dawn of war

[astral burrow]

I gotta finish studying now damn it

Got so much to do

[queen laurel]

Explains my general taste for giant boots

[near wasp]

Good luck

[astral burrow]

Gotta make it to Alaska

Failed uni exam 3 times bruh

I am 20 and still not in one

Did get into electrical engineering but hated after one major

I am not becoming a tech priest

[vagrant fox]

First thing I saw was the Dawn of War 1 trailer in like 2005 with manowar playing over it and space marines have been the coolest shit ever since

[astral burrow]

That was another year wasted lol

[hallow plover]

Uni was a waste of time imo

[near wasp]

I didn't go to college, I went straight into being an alarm monitoring professional

[nocturne jetty]

I played Warhammer like 20 Years

LOL

And never aged a single day

jk

[vagrant fox]

Now that I'm an old boomer I should go to uni to flex on the kids with my healthy coping habits and lifestyle

[tough haven]

"Shortly after the completion of their mission (Character name) made a meteoric rise through the Enforcers with promotion after promotion. With their new rank, they were able to live a life of luxury they had never dreamed possible, in their lavish Class III hab unit with its very own personal washroom!" I just wrote this as an ending for one of my characters and I just realized it kinda sounds like a "The Price is Right" prize

[hallow plover]

What's the cutout age to be a boomer now

[vagrant fox]

no idea

[near wasp]

Boomer is a generation not an age

[astral burrow]

I don't have another choice sadly

[vagrant fox]

The zoomlets call anyone over 25 old or something

[nocturne jetty]

(Gen Z no future) 💀

[tough haven]

Older than 20 according to the kids

[hallow plover]

I know but now everyone is a boomer according to zoomies

[nocturne jetty]

Ur stuck in this little reality

[astral burrow]

I am as old as cassia

Perfect age to play rogue trader

[tough haven]

I showed my younger brother dawn of war 1 (He's 17) and he said some shit like "God damn, this game probably was developed by etching 1s and 0s onto stone tablets"

[vagrant fox]

damn

show him DOS games next

[tough haven]

Hurt my bones

[astral burrow]

Tell him about assembly

Basically that

[hallow plover]

[nocturne jetty]

(Playing Warhammer ever since 500 Years)

[vagrant fox]

This is one of the first games I ever played

Good old Santa Slayer

[astral burrow]

Playing Warhammer since the 500th game

[astral burrow]

Mine was underground 2

[queen laurel]

This looks like a f****** fever dream

[astral burrow]

And that one sheep platformer where you shaboink other sheeps in the level and win, found it at home randomly once in a cd, traumatized

[tough haven]

Keep in mind he plays Total Annihilation so he has no room to talk

[astral burrow]

Bird cats and crabs

Would be a nice world

I love this server, needed a new one after the one I frequented got filled with minors acting weird and a bunch of freaks and gooners

[hallow plover]

Don't go to zealot chat

[vagrant fox]

go to zealot chat and enjoy

Dilara recommends it often

[rocky gale]

Last time I went to Zealot chat they were explaining the best way to get estrogen

[astral burrow]

I did ask a few questions there got nice answers

Was considering paying zealot

[astral burrow]

What did they decide?

[rocky gale]

Was a while ago, can't remember actually

[astral burrow]

Damn it

[vagrant fox]

I've heard you buy the synthetic homemade stuff from little places in France for bitcoins

[astral burrow]

You uuuh

[vagrant fox]

At least in the one server I lurk that has a lot of mtf

[astral burrow]

I got nothing funny

You go to a pharmacy I guess

[tough haven]

Slay

[tough haven]

Not in many states where I'm from!

Because fuck you if you want affirmative care

I guess

[vagrant fox]

Here the state will help you but it takes about two centuries and a dozen years of waiting

[rocky gale]

Yea, if you try to go through the NHS you've got a 10 year waiting list

[vagrant fox]

At least the boob job will be free, I guess

[astral burrow]

Damn

I guess I am glad I like my body

[tough haven]

Dont wanna go through puberty cause it will cause you irreparable dysphoria? Thats too damn bad, Uncle sam doesnt give a shit (In many states)

[astral burrow]

[tough haven]

A good thing to be thankful for every day

[astral burrow]

Blazkowich would gladly give a shit

He wouldn't understand but he would try to help

I love blazkowich

[tough haven]

My friend is going through that rn actually! after a very long wait time

[tough haven]

thats the mark of a good person

[astral burrow]

He is very chill

Would love to just sit down and chat with him over a coffee

[tough haven]

I dont gotta understand your shit bc its not really my place to know, but I'll help you regardless

[vagrant fox]

Yeah I don't get it, I don't care to understand either, but you gotta let people live their lives

[tough haven]

Fr

especially in a country that touts its supposed freedom of choice all the time (Unless you make a choice that makes you a part of a marginalized group, then we dont like you)

its freedom of choice for the major groups that we as a society are largely comfortable with

I'm getting too political, I apologize

[vagrant fox]

As long as there's no open hostility going on it's fine, seemingly from past modding

[tough haven]

Well yeah but not everyone wants to hear about how shitty everything is all the time

in their lore chat

[vagrant fox]

yea probably

On the positive side EU5 looks good

[astral burrow]

Is wolfenstein the old blood fun?

I know it is in the 40s and I kinda wanted some of that after he intro mission of the new order

[opaque coyote]

I mean

GTA 3 literally introduced the game with

Corrupt cops

[astral burrow]

Lmao

[opaque coyote]

And CJ immediately being arrested by

Arriving at his hometown

[astral burrow]

Half of GTA V is just doing shit for corrupt FBI

[opaque coyote]

He didn't even have like a criminal record

He just stepped in and immediately got arrested

[astral burrow]

Doubt those people ever played a GTA game at all

[opaque coyote]

GTA kinda prides itself in literally just

Making fun of anything it can grab

I mean the dumbass fake TV shows it has

[astral burrow]

Radios

[opaque coyote]

How do I say this

It's video game South Park in tone basically

Down to the random acts of violence you will inevitably do

Because it's fun

[summer mural]

damn

India is at war

[astral burrow]

Damn

I hate war

Hope it ends fast

[rose thorn]

[near wasp]

[storm jungle]

[queen laurel]

[summer mural]

[forest orbit]

[celest dome]

It was forgotten for a good reason

[queen laurel]

Yeah uh

[storm jungle]

Yeah I dont know why that kharn guy deleted his comment after saying that

[summer mural]

lore accurate kharn behavior

[queen laurel]

Also like what's the point of remembering them

These are literally made by gw during their racist era

[late osprey]

truly a dark and evil remembrance

[rose thorn]

“The old world doesn’t really feel the same without them….”

[queen laurel]

That sentence made me nearly jump off a cliff

What the f*** do you mean

Not the same

[rose thorn]

“They really should get a refresh”

[celest dome]

There also used to be some human tribes in Nagaronth which basically were Amerindian (Indians) tribes

[queen laurel]

[celest dome]

Munda had Ratskin which were the same thing too

💀

[queen laurel]

All right my favorite cactus of a friend what's the punishment for reminding people and wanting the return of the unggabungga people

In warhammer fantasy

[late osprey]

the what

[queen laurel]

Pygmies

The one they were talking about

Yes i know it sounds really bad you do not have to tell me

[celest dome]

Beaten by Kangaroo beastmens

[queen laurel]

That's fitting but for extra i want to add, getting possessed by multiple demons

[outer wave]

https://tenor.com/view/no-no-no-no-no-wait-wait-wait-wait-wait-gif-3746287728568117387

[near wasp]

Somebody lobotomize me so work will be tolerable

[queen laurel]

I would but knowing my luck i would probably lobotomized you so badly it actually improve your brain function making work less tolerable

[near wasp]

Somehow I believe that

[vagrant fox]

only if I get to tell everyone you're a lobotomite

[near wasp]

Fair

So how bout them rogal dorn rumors

[celest dome]

New Valrak stuff ?

[vagrant fox]

A black templar had a vision

[near wasp]

I think it was in the new fulgrim book but I haven't read that yet so I'm not 100

[vagrant fox]

Yeah he has a vision in that one where he fights some EC champion and Fulgrim plus Dorn is there

[near wasp]

Valrak can stretch a twelve word sentence into a thirty minute video

Dorns just been hiding away in some hidden spots in phalinex

Someone pointed out to me this is an emperor text to speech reference

Vulkan teaser

[rose thorn]

Kinda wish they didn’t do this teaser right at the start of age of sigmar’s big event

[arctic talon]

tbh

it was inevtible with the big like

irl event coming up

they're prolly gona show off physical 30k stuff

it is about 3 years now

if GW are doing THE CYCLE

[plush mason]

-# what cycle

[opaque coyote]

VULKAN LIVES!!

STOMP STOMP

Had to

[rocky gale]

Very interesting that GW felt the need to specify that this rule only effects non-unique Monsters with companion weapons, when FEC don't have any unique monsters with compaion weapons

[arctic talon]

future proofing maybe?

[arctic talon]

3 year rule cycle

[rocky gale]

We getting a new unique monster

[arctic talon]

prolly

but I'd def call that future proofing tbh

[rocky gale]

Future proofing for next week

when we get a new unique monster

[arctic talon]

;p;

[young pecan]

Kinda miss pygmie faction ngl (first time rage baiting please get angry)

[astral burrow]

Hi

Is tabletop 40k like DND but with larger scale?

[rocky gale]

Not really

There are D&D versions of 40k, like Rogue Trader or Dark Heresy etc, but Tabletop 40k is a Wargame rather than an RPG

[storm jungle]

^

You take minis, paint them, make them your own or just an official one and then just pit any army/faction that is on tabletop against another player's army.

[late osprey]

yeah

even in the RPG versions i would say the hobby aspect is one of the major things that sets it apart from D&D and others

[rocky gale]

You don't even have to play, tons of people just collect them like collectibles

[late osprey]

although old school D&D still had that hobby aspect, it doesnt really anymore

[astral burrow]

Sounds kinda complicated

[astral burrow]

Yeah that's what I would do

I am extremely interested in the painting aspect

The rest, meh

I wanna build em and paint em myself it sounds so fun

But at that point I would rather just get a Gundam or something lmao

No need for so many tools, more value once finished

They should make plastic models with articulation and whatnot

[late osprey]

they do

they dont sell nearly as well

well technically THEY dont make them

but either way

[astral burrow]

How?

Like a Gundam like big space marine with articulation?

And a lot of pieces?

[astral burrow]

Why is guilliman so big

It says guilliman on the ceiling

[sacred bluff]

primarch

[vagrant fox]

https://tenor.com/view/a24-slow-burn-a24slowburn-soyjak-pointing-gif-27376433

[sacred ginkgo]

Evil art

[astral burrow]

Luv me primach

Luv me emprah

[late osprey]

yeah theyve worked with other companies to sell figures iirc

[astral burrow]

I know there are action figures

But didn't know about bigger plastic models

[storm jungle]

Im surprised he didnt make himself shaking Guiliman's hand or some shit

[astral burrow]

Hi dilara

[storm jungle]

[astral burrow]

Nighty night

[astral burrow]

Stop being sussy

[storm jungle]

Never.

[astral burrow]

Hi dilara genuine question

Is there a reason shinigami is still here cuz I havent seen them do anything besides harassing and insulting people out of the blue for no reason

[storm jungle]

Who?

[astral burrow]

Damn

That insignificant huh

You were right tho zealot chat sucks lmao

[sacred ginkgo]

You’ll need to subject yourself to zealot chat for the rest of the context, the short version is Krait got pissy during an hd2 argument and then this person appeared and krait immediately took shots at them

[storm jungle]

Yeah alright ill take a look.

[astral burrow]

Not just now specifically

It is like everytime I see them in chat, they are dogpiling on someone

They aren't annoying me, I am just curious what they do for their behaviour to be tolerated

[storm jungle]

I mean why havent you reported this before then

💀

but im looking through it now

[astral burrow]

I didn't think it was a big deal

No one seems to mind it apperently

I was wondering if it was a reoccurring thing and if they just have something they contribute

[storm jungle]

Zealot chat moment definitely.

[astral burrow]

Usually in general when I see them

[sacred ginkgo]

Shin is a general chat person more often

[astral burrow]

It is whatever really u can forget about it

[storm jungle]

That last pack of messages is definitely cunty but going through most of their messages I cant find anything else too damning.

Id say just never use class-chats ever, they are all heaps of shit lol

[sacred ginkgo]

Select your variety of brainrot

[scenic bolt]

every chat is kinda cliqueish but zealot chats up there

[storm jungle]

^

[sacred ginkgo]

The price of actually finding accurate info (sometimes)

[storm jungle]

I dont like any of the class chats so im biased but like they never have given me anything positive to look into lol

(also so many bans)

[green loom]

Ask gameplay questions ignore otherwise

[outer wave]

Ogryn chat was one of the chiller ones until I recall some folks outta there that got banned for saying some no no words

[storm jungle]

Yeah it was a fucking disaster

[astral burrow]

Damn even veteran?

[storm jungle]

legit some of the worst memories i have of that place lol

[astral burrow]

I am mostly just here

[languid meadow]

og chat was so bad there's an image making fun of them

[astral burrow]

Cool people are here

And cool topics

[storm jungle]

Its an effect of the game having a very dumbass meta-gamer clique, the class chats can be chill but they spiral and got a lot of prickly people that are straight up assholes.

[outer wave]

Wait really? What is it?

[sacred ginkgo]

Vet chat has veterans (largest skill disparity) but it also has Path
Zealot chat is 90% shitposts and off topic with 10% of it being balance arguments because all of the zealot arguments were concluded a year ago
Psyker chat has a few issues with offering objective info
And ogryn chat has been fine if a bit repetitively roleplay’y since the incident

[storm jungle]

^

They all got downsides, id say just stick to lore

[astral burrow]

Ah, co op horde shooter moment

[storm jungle]

this is still a game server so like its not really the best when it comes to some people lol

[storm jungle]

Literally yeah 💀

[vagrant fox]

just stick to lore, book club, and lurk theorycrafting for your sanity

[astral burrow]

This is like rogue trader server for me at this point, with here has the general chat

[sacred ginkgo]

Path single-handedly carries the usefulness of vet chat

[outer wave]

Also lurk fan art chat, that chat is pretty okay too

[astral burrow]

This chat has a chill Turkish person which is like extremely rare

[astral burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/fortnite-gif-10061070920122192479

[vagrant fox]

Sometimes, a space marine pfp whispers to me like that green goblin mask and I want to shitpost badly

[astral burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/green-goblin-green-goblin-mask-mask-scene-reject-urge-gif-2558149218007024011

[languid meadow]

I can't find it since it's so old, but it went something like "I don't think it's racist - ogryn chat on the topic of racism"

[outer wave]

LMAO

Jesus, that bad huh?

[vagrant fox]

I've seen some weirdly toxic ogryn mains

[scenic bolt]

yea it was bad bad

[astral burrow]

More like kreigchat

[languid meadow]

yeah one guy said a racist thing a bunch of his dickriders came out to defend him

[astral burrow]

Having dickriders in a discord server is crazy work

[sacred ginkgo]

Ogryn's are the most polarized players its weird

[outer wave]

I've met mostly chill ogryn players in game

[sacred ginkgo]

Its either roleplayers or the most caustic creatures you will ever see

[tough haven]

There is a server for RT

[outer wave]

The ones on here can be less so though

[sacred ginkgo]

Of course there is

[astral burrow]

It is just a general server for owlcat games, and usually quiet

[sacred ginkgo]

Its the internet

[languid meadow]

Old vet (like around launch) chat had a bunch of gays who would talk about guns and shit and it would lure krieg pfps and doom pfps to it and they would get banned after saying a slur

[astral burrow]

And doesn't have the charm lore chat here does

[sacred ginkgo]

It exists

[tough haven]

Slay

[astral burrow]

Doom pfps?

I thought doom fans were chill

[outer wave]

Damn that isn't new vet chat anymore?

[sacred ginkgo]

Now zealot chat does this

[tough haven]

The ingenious trap

[languid meadow]

Idk I haven't been there in forever since a bunch of people just stopped talking in there

[outer wave]

Ah valid

[scenic bolt]

Bring back the history chat and the arms and armor chat

As honeypots

[outer wave]

GOD that was a deep cut

I remember those chats

[languid meadow]

I miss the historical femboy chat

[outer wave]

Bring back the AI debate chat

[winter vessel]

It’s like the life cycle of a mall, one time it was bustling and vibrant with voices, now it’s just an old massive husk

[astral burrow]

Bring a chat specifically for Cassia

[languid meadow]

good times of almost 3 years ago

[astral burrow]

God I would get banned there

Don't bring it

[scenic bolt]

Landsknecht-posting

[tough haven]

Woman appreciation chat

[astral burrow]

Nah just cassia in particular

And only I can talk in there

[winter vessel]

Casserole

[tough haven]

I think we’re still pretty active still

[astral burrow]

Cassia when I snuggle her up onto a blanket sushi

[tough haven]

Hopefully as a fatshark game we can exist for a long time

[languid meadow]

eh not really the same caliber anymore, most people who come into zealot chat and get banned are newer people joining and seeing that zealot chat isn't talking about darktide 24/7

[astral burrow]

This chat is VERY active

[languid meadow]

then someone explains, they get angry, then someone gets banned

[sacred ginkgo]

Yeah

[scenic bolt]

Lore chat is basically sane-general

[astral burrow]

Explains what?

[sacred ginkgo]

Luckily this community has managed to maintain an immune system

[tough haven]

Be the change you wanna see in the world

Bait hatred out of the community yourself

[languid meadow]

they explain that you can't really talk about darktide 24/7 since there's nothing going on

so class chats just turn into hanging out with some darktide convos

[astral burrow]

Reasonable

Is there a wider 40k server?

[sacred ginkgo]

Zealot has nothing to discuss

[languid meadow]

then an update drops then it's all darktide for a week or two

[sacred ginkgo]

There's one build

And its been that build since patch 13 more or less

[languid meadow]

yeah and everything you'd need is in pins

[sacred ginkgo]

It is now

[astral burrow]

Omg there are pins

[tough haven]

You won’t find any as reasonable as us

[winter vessel]

Someone made a meme picture using a tide detergent bottle that was black and called it the “Darktide”

[sacred ginkgo]

Gods bless Ainz for breaking the cycle

[winter vessel]

Long time ago

Anyways, think my next paycheck I might be getting my first official set of minis

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/trazyn-the-infinite-warhammer-40k-gif-2805012756110263063

better be the crons

[astral burrow]

How humble

[winter vessel]

I’ve mentioned a thousand times in this chat of how much of a guard fanboy I am

So chances of that are slim

But if you can guess what minis I’m getting

I’ll get a cron set

[astral burrow]

Guardsmen?

Like cadia?

[arctic talon]

Idk

Maybe they like another regiment

[scenic bolt]

The Oops-All Riders box set

[winter vessel]

Use the Brain cell people

[languid meadow]

I'd say Krieg since they just got a heap of really good models but it seems too obvious

[winter vessel]

Try and guess which one I’m going to get

[astral burrow]

I will look for some local places to find minis on case I acquire a large sum of money

[astral burrow]

Isn't that a bad look

[winter vessel]

So you can force me to purchase a cron set

[astral burrow]

Cadia guardsmen

[languid meadow]

nah Krieg is really interesting and most of their players are fine

[arctic talon]

Honse

[languid meadow]

it's like Black Templars

Paint Krieg blue and they're peak

[late osprey]

does krieg even have a starter set

[winter vessel]

Eh. Whatevs I’ll just post it.

[languid meadow]

Oh peak

[arctic talon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/745324840097153167/1314744803497611415/sussy_af_fam.mp4?ex=681defc3&is=681c9e43&hm=1294fd36b63ea933d8ff7bab0ab16a5f5026aa54cebdc93971d533bd833361f3&

Relevant

To krieg

Unfortunately

[languid meadow]

Yeah I've been looking at getting scions

[arctic talon]

I hate those people

Aquillons are cool

Tbh

[winter vessel]

Not sure if I’ll ever get into KT, I just want to have them

But I’ve watching videos

And reading to Try to grasp it

And I’m a big sucker for aerial insertion with military units

Exhibit A: ODSTS from Halo 3

[late osprey]

EXCELLENT choice

[astral burrow]

Oh my shock troops

Looks so cool

[late osprey]

tempestus are peak, and i thought tempestus with grav chutes were criminally overdue

[languid meadow]

that's why we blue max

[arctic talon]

Just an fyi for the Aquillons kit

[languid meadow]

Grav chutes are so cool and that's why I wish we'd get Harakoni Warhawks

[vagrant fox]

absolutely pogged

I'm tempted to get kriegers and french them up

[arctic talon]

It doesn’t come with enough pistols if you wana give the sgt + the dual pistol one

The hotshots

[winter vessel]

Yeah. Harakoni are cool

[late osprey]

its relatively easy to do at least

[languid meadow]

Harakoni > Elysians

[late osprey]

if you can get some chutes its just a matter of putting them on kasrkin minis

[arctic talon]

Harkoni are an easy conversion yeah

Steal kasrkin

Add chutes

Done

[astral burrow]

That looks cool!

[late osprey]

you'll need a Zacto knife more than likely

but assuming you've got one its easy

[astral burrow]

God I really need to find a fav faction

[winter vessel]

Damn, a Tempestus Aquilon game that is ODST esque would be peak

[late osprey]

actually i want to get that tempestus set

and then look for ways to Chaosify them

probably i'd want to get the chaos pack as well for the bits

the chaos team or whatever

[sacred ginkgo]

Chaosing guard is as easy as roughing up their armor and adding the 8 pointed star in some places

[late osprey]

yeah but ideally i can do better than just painting a crude 8-star one the pauldrons

[vagrant fox]

I want more official chaos guard, they're dope

[winter vessel]

If executed right, they look neat

[sacred ginkgo]

You can absolutely go deeper but starting with that puts you halfway to something nice

[vagrant fox]

Look at these dudes

[late osprey]

while we're talking about favorite factions

im literally a Renegade Guard dude

[sacred ginkgo]

I'd suggest you inscribe it with a knife

[late osprey]

ive sworn off tabletop 40k proper because my renegade guard army was effectively ruined

and ive never recovered

[winter vessel]

How much it set you back?

[late osprey]

the whole vraks army was buku expensive at the time, i dont even want to think about how much the dust collectors are worth now

well

dust collector is harsh

i still use them to play kill team

since kill team is actually loads of fun

[astral burrow]

Sideways rifle one is baller

Nighty night

Might try to pick a fav faction tomorrow

Rogue trader has a ton of lore, might help

[late osprey]

dont worry about this

you'll naturally find an aesthetic and lore that you think is cool

[young pecan]

||Maxilla, Fischig, and Aemos all dead in three pages ||

This shit sucks

[astral burrow]

I like the kreig aesthetic but I don't really want that to be my all time fav lmao

[arctic talon]

Rip renegades and heretics

[astral burrow]

My current consideration is adeptus mechanicus

But most games don't let me play as one smh

[nocturne crest]

I wonder if it would make sense for Slaanesh to have noise weaponry welding cultists.

[late osprey]

utterly enraged by what they did

[astral burrow]

Excess noise

[late osprey]

things shall get loud now

[arctic talon]

The RnH player I know just uses them as IG, which isn’t the same but 💀

Pain

Suffering

[nocturne crest]

Also, I got a new idea, unless someone has come up with it earlier and I didn't know.

[arctic talon]

Agony

[nocturne crest]

Noise marines on bikes.

[late osprey]

yeah exactly

its like

[arctic talon]

RnH got their legs shot out

[late osprey]

DONT YOU THINK I WOULD HAVE DONE THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE

IF I WANTED TO?

[arctic talon]

Before legends was like

Properly a thing

Which sucks

And then they got shot like

12 more times

[late osprey]

i remember being so excited for their forgeworld book too

[arctic talon]

Same happened with

What’s their name

Uhhh

Elysians

[late osprey]

i was like a kid on christmas who got evicted instead of a christmas gift

[arctic talon]

Elysians and RnH are both tragic tbh

Since they were like

Killed right before legends was a thing

Properly

[late osprey]

reading the rules just gradually losing faith in humanity

[arctic talon]

So they just ended up getting the most half assed thing ever

[late osprey]

Back in the good old days, you had to buy flak armor for your militia but they still weren't as bad!

[arctic talon]

Lol

Ironic

Coming with flak by default now

They’re somehow shittier

[late osprey]

6+ flak 😄

[arctic talon]

Maybe someday we’ll get a chaos mortals book

[late osprey]

cultists being better than militia is like an utter Fuck You

[arctic talon]

Wait do renegade Miltia not get flak lol

💀

[late osprey]

militia are 5+ BS 6+ save now

in the old system you could upgrade them to be as good as IG or keep them as shitty 5+ BS no save

so you had like

so much diversity in how you wanted to run your dudes

[arctic talon]

Lol

I’m sure GW will make another chaos mortals codex

Someday

[late osprey]

by default they SPECIFICALLY had no save which was lots of fun

[arctic talon]

[late osprey]

running glass cannoneers

[arctic talon]

For all those RnH fans

To at least have a decent like

Place to use their shit

[late osprey]

Don't cry little RnH fan, papa GW has enough Cult Marines to last you your entire life!

[median star]

so are autoguns stub guns or is stub it own category

[arctic talon]

The distinction basically doesn’t fucking matter

Aside from dark heresy deciding ceaseless

[late osprey]

ForgeWorld! Release another Daemon Prince, the boy's hungry!

[arctic talon]

All other sources don’t give a shit

[arctic talon]

please they’re so close to being a thing

💀

They just need like vehicles and like

Heavy weapons teams

[late osprey]

the general context SEEMS to be that stub refers to single-shot weaponry

[arctic talon]

To resemble something

[median star]

the heavy stubber in question

[arctic talon]

Except that’s directly contradicted with heavy stubbers

Yeah

[late osprey]

yeah

LOL

[arctic talon]

And macro stubbers

And stubcarbines

[late osprey]

so like EW it ULTIMATELY doesnt matter

[arctic talon]

And uhhh

[late osprey]

but like

idk

[arctic talon]

I blame dark heresy

They came up with the caseless definition

They literally pulled it out their ass

[tough haven]

No like I just know from experience, 40k discords tend to be toxic cesspools

[arctic talon]

The main 40K one is nice

Imo

Anyways rip RNH

[late osprey]

they just need a return to the old mechanics of ultra-heavy customization

right now its just really really really shitty guard

you have like

[arctic talon]

They’re never going to have stuff as customizable as that imo

[late osprey]

2 unique mechanics

randomized leadership which is actually more of just a pain in the ass than an actual benefit

and like

4 chaos alignment buffs, 2 of them being forgettable and useless and 2 of them being very good if not for the fact you only have Militia and Cultists

i always ran tzeentch as the obvious shooter army choice, 5+ overwatch

[arctic talon]

Can you not put them on tanks

[late osprey]

but thats ALL you get

[arctic talon]

Wait no fuck

They lost tanks

[late osprey]

you DO get tanks

[arctic talon]

Wait wtf

[median star]

would autocannon in sense be just a bigger version of stubber or qre autocannon shells specifically different in anyway

[late osprey]

but the tanks dont benefit from any R&H rules

[arctic talon]

Auto cannons are way bigger

[late osprey]

iirc its specifically infantry that benefit from the rules lmao

[arctic talon]

Auto cannons are like

Light AT weapons

Irl

They’re the same in 40K

[late osprey]

so R&H is essentially Imperial Guard but with horrible infantry

[arctic talon]

You can kill light tanks

Or heavy tanks with enough

Or make a human into tomato sauce

[median star]

so iv seen those boltercombi glaive weapon things the custodes have is their anything similar to that ever been done with a thunder hammer

[green loom]

Probably

[arctic talon]

we don't have any depictions of it with a Thammer

but I'm sure a custodes has done it before lol

[median star]

do the custodes only ever do that thing w bolters or do they have like plasma or melta aswell

[arctic talon]

they have adarthic weapons, bolters, meltas, flamers(rarely)

They don't use plasma due to unreliablity

[median star]

i assume adarthic is better then volkite

[arctic talon]

Adarthic is like imperial gauss

its a weird Technobarbarian weapon

Volkite lore wise is a mechanicus invention(STC?)

[vagrant fox]

Dates back to daot in some way or another iirc

[storm jungle]

Depends on the Custodian, higher ranking ones can probably have access to that stuff.

[arctic talon]

Custodes prolly could use plasma yeah

but its not in their usual stereotypical lineup

esp since they fight so close up

might as well use a fuckin melta

[storm jungle]

Yeah like

my Shield-Captain Proconsul Kahraman has one lol

where its an adhartic weapon attached to his guardian-halberd

ı just rolled with it saying hes an old guard so he gets access to that shit while his ward Hiranur doesnt since shes "green"

[vagrant fox]

I think their dreadnoughts have some form of plasma weapon right

[storm jungle]

Yeah they get access to the best shit

[vagrant fox]

Ah yes, very deep lore

[storm jungle]

[vagrant fox]

I know I've seen a custodes with a thunder hammer but I think that was a kitbash, but it was cool

[storm jungle]

Yeah they can essentially use anything they want once they reach a higher rank was my headcannon

since the codex says their loadout choices are very free

so them custom-ordering weapons to be fit into the gear they utilize is pretty fitting

[rose thorn]

Guess what

[sacred ginkgo]

You're already the peak of human bioengineering, a special halberd is not that big of an ask

[vagrant fox]

The top of the top get what they want, it's not a big stretch

[storm jungle]

LMAOOOOOOOOO

IS THIS CHRISTMAS

DID IT COME EARLY

I remember when I reported like 4-5 of his posts and nothing came out of it, this is pretty surprising.

[outer wave]

Im surprised that, for all the shit about twitter being about free speech and that anything goes, that they still take down accounts on hateful conduct

[rose thorn]

The entire Twitter warhammer community was shitting on him last week

[vagrant fox]

I don't know who that is but I'm assuming he's a chud

[rose thorn]

You gotta report trh accounts not the posts

[outer wave]

What did he do?

I know he's a chud warhammer twitter guy but like

What did he do?

[rose thorn]

He’s a literal con artist

[outer wave]

Oh fun

[vagrant fox]

Ah I found it, genuinely love how the hammer looks. Very nifty

[rose thorn]

PEAK

[outer wave]

So what was he conning about exactly?

[median star]

who would they be ordering from like straight from mars or do they have their own inhouse artificers

[arctic talon]

lol, they stole so many stormcast bits

[arctic talon]

They got their own inhouse artificiers

[vagrant fox]

Yeah it looks very stormcast

[arctic talon]

the Terrawatt clan is the main one

and some other techno barbarians

They are essentially slaves

lol

but they live really nice lives, even by irl standards

[plush mason]

the fucking what clan

[arctic talon]

terrawatt clan

[plush mason]

fucking GW

[arctic talon]

they're under the Imperial household

[median star]

do they stick mainly to just outfitting custodes or do they do other stuff

[arctic talon]

There's also the Lastrum Clan

[storm jungle]

They got their own artificiers.

[arctic talon]

Custodes only

Custodes are very particular about their gear

[storm jungle]

They just do custodians.

[arctic talon]

each one is pretty much a lifetimes worth of work

[storm jungle]

hence you know

[arctic talon]

Custodes make a ton of changes

ect.

[storm jungle]

"their own" part of the "own artificiers"

[arctic talon]

pretty much any name

like

custodes weapon with what seems like a name at the front is prolly some weird technobarbarian Clan

that got integrated

[plush mason]

so where do these clans live? just somewhere in the imperial palace?

[rose thorn]

He lies so much it’s fucking insane

[storm jungle]

Inside the palace

you need to remember like

[rose thorn]

And then makes up shit about people and blocks them

[storm jungle]

the palace isnt jus ta building

[vagrant fox]

Only the best tac-nuke pistosl for my custodes

[storm jungle]

its an entire small country

[arctic talon]

Adrastus, Lastrum, Solerite, Arachnus , ect.

lol

[plush mason]

yeah i know

[arctic talon]

They live in similar places with the custodes

their workshops are close to the Custodes like

stuff

[storm jungle]

They got like 1 sentence of lore so lol

[arctic talon]

so the custodes can bother them tell them what they want

[vagrant fox]

there in the vague area of the imperial palace

[storm jungle]

They are in this general area

Somewhere there uh idk

🔎

[median star]

so i know theirs certain tech that the emp didn't allow mars to get ahold of like adrathic was their any that went the opposite way like mars can only use this sorry not for astartes use

[arctic talon]

here's an aproximate overlay

[arctic talon]

Yes, quite a lot lol

Phosphor, galvanic, radium weaponry

[storm jungle]

Legit love that edit

[arctic talon]

irrad stuff

[arctic talon]

(the marines still stole the shit)

the mechanicus has a ton of inhouse tech

only skitarii and priests get

[median star]

was their any listed reason other then "sorry were the technology people we decide who gets what"

[storm jungle]

Its too dangerous

what other fucking reason do you need

[arctic talon]

Marines don't treat it well, its too dangerous

[storm jungle]

lmao

[plush mason]

ngl i thought the administratum would be headquartered in a different hive city

[arctic talon]

a lot of mechanicum stuff is kind of sensitive

you canont have like

a marine bash someone to death

with an irrad clenser

[winter vessel]

They pulled a Brotherhood of steel head ass except this time they mean lethal force

[arctic talon]

the irrad clenser will EXPLODE

lol

Entire Veteran Skitarii squads in lore sometime get outfitted with Refractor fields

which is hilarious

[storm jungle]

Nah its pretty close, literally almost every single branch of the Adeptuses are in the Palace continent

[arctic talon]

because like do you know how rare a fucking refractor field is

and its just like 10 bumfuck skitarii with them

the mechanicus are selfish bastards lol

They hoard tech and give it to those they deem "worthy"

[plush mason]

makes sense when i think about it, keep them all in one place where the imperial household could keep an eye on them

[storm jungle]

the lexi lists most of them in its main page

id recommend a look, theres a lot lol

[arctic talon]

oh also cognis weapons as a whole

which may or may not have onboard AI

[median star]

so are skitarii basically just high functioning combat servitors or am i missing the mark

[arctic talon]

no

[storm jungle]

Oh my god

[arctic talon]

Skitarii are fully sentient and sapient people

they're religous psycopaths

[late osprey]

skitarii are cyborg soldiers

[arctic talon]

think Sisters of Battle admech edition

lol

[storm jungle]

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Skitarii

Read.

[arctic talon]

regarding their general mentality

[winter vessel]

And mechanical asshats

[storm jungle]

you literally asked his question

2 weeks ago

[winter vessel]

He’s like DK but it’s not funny when it comes to forgetting

[storm jungle]

LMAO

[arctic talon]

Skitarii will sass you

[storm jungle]

I do legit get tired of saying "read the lexi" but alas

[arctic talon]

if they don't like the orders

lol

now granted the priest can just go

https://tenor.com/view/assuming-direct-control-mass-effect-gif-18465258

and make the skitarii do it anyways if they really don't want to

lol

[median star]

proof

[arctic talon]

anyways relevant

Tech thralls and servitors fall into the like

near mindless thralls in combat catagory

[late osprey]

regimental standard is a light in the darkness

[winter vessel]

That one little tidbit of UR-025 killing those techpriests was satisfactory

[storm jungle]

You starting reading lexi would be a good starter

[arctic talon]

those priests had it coming

LOL

[storm jungle]

[median star]

so no proof but ill give it a once over at some point

[late osprey]

people just do not spend hours reading lexicanum for fun anymore

alas alas

[arctic talon]

but yeah the mechanicus are like

evil

like even by imperial standards

[late osprey]

based

[arctic talon]

Anyways

lobotomize the refugees

glory to the omnissiah

[late osprey]

that shit is awesome

"proof?"
'lexi'
"so no proof"

[arctic talon]

The mechanicus are such like

psychopathic assholes

its so good

[plush mason]

do the pratorians have a mini?

[winter vessel]

The funniest thing I read from the Lexi

[arctic talon]

no

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/beef-gif-5385639

Had to dig through hadron-logs but I found it

you little fucking rat

[arctic talon]

Skitarii are religous cyborg soldiers

thats the best summary lol

[storm jungle]

gonna put you in a deep fryer

[median star]

different questions

[storm jungle]

same thing

[arctic talon]

gun that makes you explode

[outer wave]

Bro wants more pink sauce

[arctic talon]

Ordo reductor only weapons

[median star]

pink sauce is the source of the plague on atoma

[arctic talon]

prolly are too dangerous to be used by fleshbags

lol

we know a lot of that shit leaks radiation

badly

[vagrant fox]

I want one of these and I want to use it judiciously

[arctic talon]

Phased plasma fusils and the like

[outer wave]

I knew I could never trust those tiktokers selling pink sauce

[winter vessel]

just swarm Abbadon and go ZZZAPP we got him

[vagrant fox]

Gotta get the phase taser and the penis shrinker and get abbadons ass

[arctic talon]

what

[vagrant fox]

this is how the imperium can still win

[median star]

chat is their an in lore reason why fatshark hates me and refuses to rotate rolling steel in more then twice a fucking day

[arctic talon]

RNG dif

the deceiver/tzeentch/cegorach strikes again

[vagrant fox]

Ordo Reductor are funny guys, big strong guys and I love them

[arctic talon]

Ordo reductor worship the Omnissiah as a god of destruction and ruin

[winter vessel]

cool battle cyborg though

[vagrant fox]

All their weapons look the coolest

The mortar is on thin ice but it can stay

[winter vessel]

face close up

[arctic talon]

alright which one is chaos aligned:

Warlord of Cyclothrathe

Lord of Ruin

[winter vessel]

W of C?

[arctic talon]

nah

Lord of Ruin lol

[winter vessel]

But didn't archmagos Yelav toss in his lot with the Dark M at the time of the Heresy?

[arctic talon]

Lord of Ruin was a common title for members of the Ordo Reductor

I was thinking of Calleb lol

prolly should have given their names

[vagrant fox]

Lads, have any of you played a pbp ttrpg game
Is it as much of a snail pace game as it seems

[nocturne crest]

I hope these funny fellows get to come into 40k.

[distant marsh]

What's more on theme, a krieg with a recon lasgun or bolter?

[arctic talon]

Bolter

Krieg don’t use accatran’s

They pretty much near exclusively use lucius pattern lasguns

[distant marsh]

I need a little run down on what those words mean

Acctrtrans?

[arctic talon]

Recon lasgun is the accatran pattern lasgun

The helbore lasgun is the lucius pattern lasgun

[distant marsh]

Ohhh

[arctic talon]

In universe 2 diff forgeworlds and their slaved forgeworlds produce these weapons

Krieg near exclusively uses the Lucius pattern lasgun for their choice of lasgun

[distant marsh]

Neat, thanks a lot

[nocturne crest]

Would it make sense for their to be more than one world ran by the krieg?

[dapper gyro]

Bolter is non standard for pretty much all guard regiments.

[arctic talon]

No

Krieg doesn’t have any known colonies

[arctic talon]

Yeah but seeing a veteran dkok guardsmen with one is more likely then seeing one with an accatran imo

[dapper gyro]

That's true.

[arctic talon]

Because accatrans are generally carbines or for shorter ranged combat

Which would fit with like dkok engineers ig

But not with normal guardsmen

[winter vessel]

i do like the DKOK engineer's shotgun

[distant marsh]

Now I can fashion these with their proper equipment

[dapper gyro]

Accatran gear overall is rarer than other suppliers.

[arctic talon]

Lucius pattern def fits the best doctrinally for guardsmen tbh

Yeah

[nocturne crest]

I hope we get Jopall indentured uniforms.

[arctic talon]

Accatran only really gets used by 2 of the big regiments

Which is Catachan and elysians

[nocturne crest]

It would be funny.

[arctic talon]

But they also have like

Other stuff, we see galaxy pattern(I think) for catachan

[dapper gyro]

Not even Catachan uses them more often than other suppliers.

[arctic talon]

Yeah

Accatran is on the smaller size for a forgeworld

Tbh

[plush mason]

poco dotted ogryn

[dapper gyro]

Those revolver pump action shotgun, look so dumb but sound so cool.

[winter vessel]

it kinda reminds me of something i'd see in the Metro Game series

[arctic talon]

Mmmmm

Shotgun

Give us the lucius pattern shotgun in Darktide

Tbh

[dapper gyro]

Aren't they pump action on the mini though?

[arctic talon]

Idk

Lol

[nocturne crest]

What about that shotgun revolver the arbites carry?

[outer wave]

A stubber revolver shotgun variant could be cool

[arctic talon]

Arbite only

[nocturne crest]

It would be like the BO:2 days

[winter vessel]

those pistols make me think of Hellboy's giant revolver

[outer wave]

Could we not get access to Arbites gear? Its not like the gear we're getting currently is worse off than Arbites gear

[outer wave]

I can only imagine the ChocoB video showcasing it

[dapper gyro]

The combat shotgun used to be called Lawbringer, which is the shotgun the arbites used.

[arctic talon]

We could tbh

[dapper gyro]

There are many things in the lore with fancy names and exclusivity for the sake of sounding cool than actually being different.

[winter vessel]

Drake Bats

[lament shoal]

Do commissars need to serve as regular soldiers in the guard before joining the commissariat or do they just become commissars as soon as they graduate from the schola progenium?

[arctic talon]

They go straight from schola to commissar

[lament shoal]

Ty

[arctic talon]

Comissars exist outside the existing chain of command and have no ties to the regiment

[lament shoal]

Gotcha

[distant marsh]

What? so they can go on missions with a squad full of nothing but commisars?

[arctic talon]

No

[dapper gyro]

There is a regiment borderline like that.

The Terrax Guard, their planet train commissars and scions.

[median star]

are grenadier gauntlets an ogryn only weapon or do they make them in more then one size

[arctic talon]

There's grenade launchers mounted under some powerfists

but that specific thing ogryn only

[median star]

are human sized power fist able to turned to combi weapons or to heavy

[dapper gyro]

Not really, the power fist is already very heavy and taxing on the user.

[arctic talon]

Human sized power fists prolly could fit a GL but it would be a fucking mess to use

for a human tbh

[dapper gyro]

Remember, the guards are using it without physical support from power armour.

Also, GL in the lore is a single shot.

[median star]

i assume yes but are their any example of anyone having a power fist be built into a bionic arm

[arctic talon]

Yes

There's a IH

I forget the name of who has that

and datasmith gauntlets are often attached onto their arm so they can't lose them during battle

[dapper gyro]

Yarrick's power claw is a more powerful gear than power fist.

[tough haven]

It’s also from an ork and reverse engineered to work kinda

last upload was 5 months ago
Probably got outted as a pedophile

[torn marlin]

wtf?

[rose thorn]

All these accounts end like this it’s not even a joke anymore

[torn marlin]

ok, but that is a sever accusation

literally you threw the word pedophile at me because I'm not active on this server? you seriously need to check yourself

[shadow plover]

Mag didn't mean you, but the youtube channel person

[torn marlin]

oh

tanks for clarification

[rose thorn]

My bad

I didn’t realize that was the confusion

[dapper gyro]

I was confused like Mag as well...

[queen laurel]

yeah mags I'm gonna give you some advice here you do have a bit of warhammer channel pessimism

[shadow plover]

(it's still a pretty rough estimate of an unknown person even though if they're a youtuber, but no real harm done)

[queen laurel]

like it's OK to assume the worst but sometimes you need to read the room a little

[rose thorn]

What was there to read???

Still my bad, I shoudl have been more clear

[languid meadow]

I mean the message was pretty clear

[dapper gyro]

Yes

[queen laurel]

don't just throw word pedophile around it's a very rough topic and quite a allegation

youtubers can be basic and not that fun but some of them are just that not the lowly scums of the earth

[winter vessel]

yeah. Some content creators I watch can take a hiatus without any notice, but i ain't gonna whip out the megaphone and scream bloody murder

[rose thorn]

i get it im sorry

[queen laurel]

just be careful OK as as you can see carelessly throwing that word almost got you into trouble

that's all i'm asking

[rose thorn]

Barry waltz, string storm, arc hammer, that’s the meme

[queen laurel]

yeah but memes have the accuracy of an ork shoota yes they land here and there but sometimes they miss here and there

[astral burrow]

[opaque coyote]

out of context comic panel

I still find it funny that this is literally part of Jason Todd's backstory

[astral burrow]

Jason peak

[sudden compass]

I am once again asking for the knowledge of lore chat

Any sort of bone armor for ogryns in lore? Or a animal skull helmet at all?

[celest dome]

This would be the closest I get in mind

Otherwise this has 4 Ogryn with various stuff on their armour or head

Might be 3, not sure if that's an Ogryn tbh

[hallow basin]

does this count?

[queen laurel]

i mean yeah

[celest dome]

Still want that helmet

[astral burrow]

I wouldn't call this a helmet

It gives no protection

[celest dome]

It scare the enemies

Hence it's protection

[astral burrow]

But not what the person is looking for I presume

Phew the shower worked properly this time, refreshing

[sudden compass]

Kinda, but that looks so bad lol

[sudden compass]

This isnt full on what i want, but its about the closest if there isnt a full skull head

To be fair, it looks like there are some genuinely fake/counterfeit things in there

[astral burrow]

Not all of them tho no?

[shadow plover]

Wild that they actually managed to track down that many chinese counterfit sellers
