They look cool too

dapper gyro
#

Moebian armour btw

astral burrow
#

Just a recolored steel legion helmet honestly

#

Can't even tell the difference

astral burrow
#

There is another steel legion veteran set

#

That came out before this one

#

It has the exact same helmet

#

It has cigarettes on the side, that's it

#

The helmet details are the only difference

#

Cigarettes instead of net

#

I guess the colors are different too but that's a given

crystal forum
#

i have both sets

#

it looks a lot more cluttered than the newer set

#

and the helmet is ugly af

#

it was one of the first gas masks added to the store so i bought it

astral burrow
#

Compared to the moebian helmet

crystal forum
#

dont forget the parade shine version

tough haven
#

How do space hulks form? Like how do all those ships just fuse together?

astral burrow
#

General chat sucks as usual

40k's evil ACME

dapper gyro
#

Most of the time it is just giant space ship wrecks.

#

Nothing to do with the warp

raven stone
#

On a none-warp level, ram two complex metal (or equivalent) constructs together at hard enough speeds, things get stuck together in a way you wouldn't imagine possible...

dapper gyro
#

Friction welding is a thing.

#

Also vacuum welding is an issue in real life in space.

astral burrow
#

Time to finish andor

#

I hope we get these chests one day, I love the ridged Moebian breastplate

astral burrow
#

Kleya is soliding that metal gear

#

My goat can't stop cooking

plain brook
#

I don know if this is dimb question but why don the guy s in charge put more effort into making ogryns smarts. Loyal and smart ogryn sound very good to Barth

arctic talon
plain brook
#

So they too afraid of winning

arctic talon
#

No

#

They’re just xenophobic lol

plain brook
#

Arnt ogryn just humans but mutated

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

And Therfore inferior

#

And up for extermination whenever the imperium feels like it

polar hill
arctic talon
#

The implants are durable as shit

#

Also the imperium def keeps ogryns stupid

#

With lack of education and such so they’re easy to control

plain brook
#

Ok. Could they not just use ugentics. I wouldn’t put it past the impersium to selectively breed ogryns

arctic talon
#

Why bother with eugenics

polar hill
#

And abhumans like Ogryn aren't discriminated against just because they're not regular humans. It's because the modern Imperium doesn't have the frame of reference to 100% know that their mutations aren't the result of the Warp

polar hill
arctic talon
#

Well they are discriminated because they aren’t regular humans

plain brook
#

I’d think it’s from the horrible conditions they live in tbh

arctic talon
#

The imperium is just like that lol

arctic talon
#

But they can be smart

plain brook
#

Ogryn secondary school is an untapped market but yall ain’t ready for that

#

“Why yes I did graduate from the school of supreme ass kicking how did you know”

arctic talon
#

Lol

plain brook
#

But to be fair I know almost no lore, I just like the games and think ogryn is a big cutie-patootie who deserves better

#

FATSHARK GIVE HIM A PROPELLER HAT AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

Anyways abhumans in general are treated like shit

#

The imperium already treats the average person horribly

#

Abhumans just get an even lower rung

plain brook
#

Damn bruh I feel bad for the ogryns

lofty mason
#

If the Imperium showed up in Earth orbit now, how many people do you think would willingly join them

polar hill
#

The average person in the Imperium has a normal life. Stuff like Hive worlds aren't the norm, they're just in the forefront because they're more dramatic

plain brook
#

Considering the state of the US rn prolly a fair among

#

Among us. Amount

polar hill
plain brook
arctic talon
#

Lol

#

They skew the average

storm jungle
storm jungle
#

People joke about "haha cute dumb ogryns" a lot not realising they are literally being manipulated their entire lives to go die in wars and be brutes lol

arctic talon
#

And then any government that says no

#

Gets fucking glassed from orbit

#

Lol

arctic talon
#

Or book

plain brook
#

Like they’re so nice and caring they deserve so much better. I’d trust my baby with an ogryn over anyone else in the 40k universe

storm jungle
#

And not heroic space humans

#

lmao

arctic talon
#

I meant in the context of ogryns

#

But sure

lofty mason
arctic talon
#

They also works LOL

polar hill
arctic talon
#

Anyone who’s forcibly conscripted or

storm jungle

arctic talon
#

Some agriworlds also have terrible living conditions

#

Where it’s industrial farming hell

storm jungle
# lofty mason *Damn*

Theres people now in millions that think the earth is flat. Or groups who the nazis would absolutely hate but still somehow adore their ideology.

plain brook
#

Also is really unrealistic for the inpersium to take ogryn bodies and pit normal brians in em. Or am I jsu a dumb deffinely not an ogryn

arctic talon
#

Industrial worlds vary from irl industry levels but super compact

#

Or like

#

Actual hell worlds where the pollution is so bad you need a mask

#

Lol

#

Remember

lofty mason
arctic talon
#

The imperium is “the most cruel and bloody regime imaginable”

arctic talon
#

Or work them to death

#

No need to kill them when they can die on the assembly line lol

storm jungle
#

First they come for Group A

#

then they come for Group B, then C, and D

#

finally then its your turn

#

its pretty fucked up but thats the reality of it

arctic talon
plain brook
#

Is there other faction in the universe that treats abhunans better

arctic talon
#

Tau

sacred bluff
arctic talon
#

Honestly lol

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Tau treat humans better then the imperium

#

Except for the 4th sphere

sacred bluff
arctic talon
#

The 4th sphere went a bit insane

plain brook
#

Cause if ogryn life really is just ass forever then I’m feel really sad

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

Not the drukhari

#

Or orks

#

Or chaos

Craftworlds are a coin toss on wtf they’re feeling(vaguely)

#

"That's not true except for when it's true!"

arctic talon
#

They haven’t done that in any other media aside from in Deathwatch(the ttrpg) to imperial rebels

#

Are you

#

Fucking daft

#

It happened once

#

In a non canon ending for a game

plain brook
polar hill
#

Sure man

arctic talon
#

We know the tau sterilize or put rebels in concentration camps

#

They don’t do that to normal humans

arctic talon
#

Have you even read a tau book

#

Or are you just talking out your ass

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

There is one example of it ever, happening to normal humans

#

Aside from that there is nothing like it

#

And we literally know gue’vesa(human under tau) reproduce

#

Due to the deathwatch novels

lofty mason
#

I will die happy after petting a Felinid.

plain brook
#

I’m a bird. I used to fucking hate furries and then I just was like this is fun actually

Who were born into the tau empire

arctic talon

And not the imperium

Hardest to trigger T'au fan

arctic talon

So sure the Tau sterilize everyone, I guess. When there’s more evidence to the contrary

It's so easy

My favorite factions are the mechanicus, craftworld eldar and blood angels shrugpriest

"Death to memelore" >Thinks the T'au is better than the Imperium

Okay man

arctic talon

Where did I say it isnt

Don’t put words in my mouth

My favorite part of the tau/Imperial circlejerk is like

crystal forum
#

stop baiting wolf he is the best person in this god forsaken channel

astral burrow

last episode of andor

#

Let's go

arctic talon
#

The tau empire is still objectively horrible to live under

storm jungle
#

"Lmao tau fans so easy to trigger"
Literally just makes meme-assumptions
Person gets rightfully irked because its not accurate info

arctic talon
#

It’s just marginally less horrible then the conditions you’d experience on average in the imperium

storm jungle

arctic talon

They talk about pirating things

storm jungle

The tau empire is objectively an imperialistic, racist oligarchic empire lol

arctic talon

That’s not good

storm jungle

arctic talon
#

Well

storm jungle

that isnt saying like they live in a utopia

arctic talon
#

More like better access to basic needs like food

storm jungle
#

LOL

arctic talon
#

They get less rights(arguably)

#

Lol

storm jungle
#

Yeah like

#

the only "utopia" in 40k is probably craftworlds

#

everywhere else is dogshit

crystal forum

You gotta be an eldar though lul

storm jungle

#

the torment nexus exists in 40k

storm jungle
#

Yes

crystal forum
#

isn't that what corvus is stuck in

#

or was that the engine of woes

arctic talon
#

Torment nexuses are more literally a drukhari thing

#

Lol

#

But the servitor factories I’d count as a torment nexus despite the goal being making servitors

#

Lol

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

And not causing unimaginable human torment

#

That’s just a side effect

#

To making servitors lol

arctic talon
#

It just has like negative lore

It’s got like 3 or 4 sentences

lofty mason
arctic talon
#

All the artifacts of vulkan so far have been holdable by a marine though

#

Or wearable by a marine

polar hill
#

This may be a hot take but I don't like the Leagues, it feels strange for them to go from just squats to punted by the Tyranids to coming back as a weird collectivized advanced faction detached from the rest of humanity. Maybe there was set-up I missed but it just feels a bit contrived

astral burrow
#

Omg mon mothma with her original trilogy hair

#

She looks exactly like her!

#

Her spitting image!

storm jungle

Its a very communal/post-scarcity society.

arctic talon

While the leagues were hiding in the core of the galaxy

You can decide if that’s like

Or if it sucks

I’m in the camp of its far from the worst retcon ever

Or most like

6+ factions at once

i hope we get stories in the cores

It’s kind of hilarious how much they retcon’d with Necrons

They’re cool

storm jungle

arctic talon

Well

storm jungle

"Evil ctan controlled robots"

Genuinely what the fuck was even the point

Of enuncia lol

crystal forum
#

i want it to be something like
"no cap, on god"
Horus sent crashing into the opposite wall

crystal forum
polar hill
#

Enuncia exists solely for Erebus to not be one-shotted on sight and for the Anchorite to have his free bird solo

storm jungle
#

#

also because Abnett is a comic book writer

#

Marvel slop moment

arctic talon

#

What was the marvel comic

#

Where there were 40k vehicles in it

Yeah power fields are expensive, it's why power swords are generally reserved for the officer class

arctic talon

They fucking suck to use as weapons

#

Without a lot of jurry rigging

astral burrow
#

Fatshark should add them

polar hill
#

Ogryn power pick...

arctic talon

“A Power Pick is a simple tool used for mining and construction activities on many Imperial worlds. Power Picks are simple enough in design. They bear a low-quality molecular disruption field”

Every faction with a tabletop army has a discord server

As far as I can tell lol

astral burrow
#

Guardsmen are a faction?

#

Like, one faction?

arctic talon
#

The imperial guard are a faction yes

astral burrow
#

The branches and regiments are so different I honestly consider them all seperate factions

I’m not in any faction server other then the admech one

arctic talon
astral burrow
#

Well yeah for tabletop stats it is the same

#

But I don't play the tabletop lol

arctic talon
#

Those are called subfactions

#

Within a faction

astral burrow
#

Like saying my fav faction is guardsmen doesn't really say much with how many there are

arctic talon
#

Even in lore the major lasgun patterns aren’t super hugely different

arctic talon
#

And you can elaborate on your favorite regiment

astral burrow
#

Or I can just tell my fav regiment and answer both questions in one

Or say your favorite regiment is “cadian shock troops” or “mordian iron guard”

polar hill
# arctic talon And then it got blown up by Ollanious

Forgot to comment on this; I'm sad about Ollanius. He didn't need to be a Perpetual older than the Emperor, privy and rebellious to the grand plan, misconstrued by time into an amalgam of different men - he was perfectly fine as a normal Catholic soldier man who laid down his life in defense of humanity's last hope in a display of poetic tragedy. So much fluff for no good reason imo

arctic talon
#

I don’t like the perpetual stuff in general

#

Also what the fuck do you mean MLK got assassinated on the order of an ancient cabal of aliens

dapper gyro
#

Most big "regiments" in the lore are actually legion for all intends and purposes.

arctic talon
#

What did GW mean by this

storm jungle
polar hill
#

Wasn't it JFK?

arctic talon

It’s both

storm jungle

him giving up being catholic to believe in Big E

  • GW writers

We need a Ratling and Felinid fluff.

polar hill
#

I don't think it's supposed to be "Totally-Not-Catholicism", it's just been 30,000 years and the spelling has changed lol

arctic talon
#

Id assume there's some mild drifts aside from the spelling

#

but yeah for all intents and purposes its Catholicism

People are going to be saying "would of" and "loose" instead of "would've" and "lose" in 3025

What if we all die in a nuclear holocaust

then we wont ge tto play either of them

also I guess the human race will go extinct, but thats like whatever imo

arctic talon
#

GSC game where you huff promethium when

polar hill
#

Before I forget again, I have a crackpot theory that I don't believe I've shared here yet

Obviously the Warp is shaped by belief, and with Catholicism having existed for 30K+ years (dunno if Cathericism is still around in m42), I'm partial to the belief that God is fully still around in 40K and that the reason the Imperial Creed/Adeptus Ministorum is so visually similar to Catholicism is because, in humanity's pursuit of God as a result of the Horus Heresy, the drive to holiness is influenced by Christianity's presence in the Warp; obviously this is all to a subconscious degree and mainly influences the aesthetics, as I said(cathedrals, halos, saints, mitre hats, etc.), where it still differs in doctrine. In a similar vein of logic, if it were to be taken for granted that the Primarchs' souls are derived from Warp entities, then Sanguinius would be the Archangel Michael.

I know the actual reason can be boiled down to "Catholicism looks cool," but given the subtleties of the Warp's function I can't help but think this holds water

arctic talon
#

tbh we know like

#

Sa'tan or whoever was a daemon

#

so the Abrahamic god being a warp entity would make sense

polar hill
#

Also Drach'nyen being born of Cain killing Abel

@queen laurel Rn for my biggest boss for ork WAAAAGH! I'm thinking a Deathskull Mekboss who's main motivation is to take full control of and refurbish the space hulk Persephone's Regret into da biggest, meanest, and greenest Kill Kroozer the Gilead system has ever seen! And he would need critical components from each of the planets

#

Hows that sound?

#

Rn the hulk is occupied by both shittons of Genestealers and Orks, who are trying to wipe them out, or at least push them out of the important bits so that they can take full control of it to get to work properly

my goat Palpy wouldnt stand for this

Palpatine can hit the griddy

Can they rewrite the sequel trilogy so it’s actually good, I don’t even think any of the individual characters are that bad in theory lol

The only character with potential was Finn

armegeddon with no guard is insulting

They* aren't, rather

Confused as to why my rogue trader somehow knew about it

And the first war for Armageddon

polar hill

You're accompanied by a Space Wolf, aren't you

humble shoal

This is when you first meet the space wolf

arctic talon
humble shoal

You ask him if he trusts the inquisition and if the lore check passes you go "oh yeah the months of shame"

arctic talon

even if I think the whole

rebellion vs empire 2.0 thing

is fucking stupid lol

polar hill
arctic talon

well yeah

I said fine in theory

in execution she fucking sucks

#

I'm talking about like the base idea of the character tbh

polar hill
arctic talon
#

But yeah in execution

#

they pretty much wasted all the actors and characters

polar hill
#

I'm still mad that they had her use Force Lightning by accident

#

That's not something you can just do

#

It's a high-finesse skill that requires knowledge, practice, focus and intent

#

It's Star Wars's Avada Kedavra

humble shoal
#

Force lightning is for chumps

#

Force storm is where its at

polar hill
#

Setting that aside. I used to be rather open-minded to the Sequels when heading into TFA for the first time

humble shoal
#

I also was

#

2nd one sucked

#

Didnt watch the third

polar hill
#

I already kinda knew it would be a rehash because JJ is generally uninspired, but I thought it would at least be a safe, boring rehash because of his Star Trek movies

summer mural
#

i tried biomutant today

polar hill
#

And then the New Republic got wiped out in five minutes by an Empire that came out of nowhere, then Rian killed the main antagonist and Luke in the second movie

that game was good but man the narrator doesnt shut the fuck up

I’ll say it once I’ll say it again, they take a planet well known for guard vs orks and made it into a space marine vs space marine vs space marine vs space marine vs space marine battle

And not leave GKs living in uncertain hell fi they are getting a refresh or not

arctic talon

Like unironically

#

Lol

rose thorn
#

Will they?

arctic talon
#

GW is literally out of things to refresh for major factions

#

It’s literally just GK and drukhari

#

There is nothing left to update factionwide

#

GK are like the “easiest” update as well

#

You just need to redo 3 kits + a few characters

#

Unless they wana split strikes/interceptors and purgators/purifiers

Also the brother captain and librarian

Is pariah nexus a game?

arctic talon
#

For the incidents I mentioned

#

No

#

The specific incidents I mentjoned

#

Are the guard working alone

#

Without marines

polar hill

Leontus had Custodian backup but that's it

They repel the iron warriors assault at nachmund and ruin chaos’s plans

ALSO THE GRAND MASTER DOENSY HACE A MDOEL

arctic talon

Crusade leviathan has catachan and some no name regiment repel a hive splinter fleet

vital kernel

I'm talking about actual cases in the lore where the guard acts as an obstacle to another faction. Not little text blurbs of no consequence.

arctic talon
#

THEY ARE

arctic talon
#

FUCKING CRUSADE LEVIATHAN THE RULE BOOK

#

They are an actual obstacle

#

In several crusade books

#

Holy fuck lol

#

They do things in them

arctic talon
#

Sometimes with support from other factions

#

Sometimes alone

rose thorn
#

Oh yeah elite wolf is there any rors good for the trees?

arctic talon
#

They literally completely decimate

#

The fucking invading csm forces at nachmund

#

Leading to the entire plan the csm cooked up to fail

#

And for the first assault to go horribly

#

In pariah nexus things were going great for one region till the mechanicus decided to start having “fun”

vital kernel
# polar hill ⛳ -----> ⛳

"Guard achieved costly victory in X location" has always been present in rulebooks, but the moment a named character does anything they aren't even a speedbump

polar hill
#

Saying the Guard don't do anything of consequence is as crazy as saying the Emperor doesn't do anything, ngl; like bro, humanity would fall in a day if not for the Guard

arctic talon
#

You are literally moving goalposts

#

You asked for guard doing things that mayter

#

I gave you 3 examples from this edition

#

4 if you count Leontus

#

salvaging the situation against leviathan

#

And actually letting the imperium mount a proper defense against it

#

But sure Leontus actually did nothing

#

And is just a speedbump

#

They literally get a 2 page spread in nachmund

#

Dedicated to them actually fighting off the IW attack wave

#

But sure

#

They did nothing

polar hill
arctic talon

It’s beautiful

arctic talon

Here’s one even more horrifying

polar hill

Uncle no

What did Yvraine do to you

If you wanted me to list every single time the guard were hugely relevant in how one has went for crusade or warzones

We’d be here all day

wolf im doing important boy work rn i must not be disturbed

polar hill
#

But you asked

arctic talon
#

@vital kernel okay genuine question what do you consider something as “not a speed bump”

#

Like

#

Banishing a greater daemon? Is that a speed bump?

#

Or is that something actually important

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

Like the guard do stuff all the time

#

They get the usual comically one sided codex things

#

They get a lot of presence in warzone and crusade books

#

Because they’re the fucking Guard

polar hill
#

OUR WILL IS UNBROKEN, UNMATCHED BY DESIGN

#

THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE

#

THE UNBREAKABLE LINE

arctic talon
#

Like what qualifies as not being a speedbump? Because the warzone and crusade books are generally deadlocks

#

Aside from like

polar hill
#

I don't think he's here anymore ngl

arctic talon
#

Nachmund, and Warzone: Charadon

arctic talon
#

Nachmund finally got resolved in the new crusade book after 3 editions

#

And Charadon was resolved the same edition with the mechanicus getting their teeth kicked in lul

#

Oh also octarius got resolved same edition

#

I forgot about octarius

vital kernel
# arctic talon <@263024464457891841> okay genuine question what do you consider something as “n...

You clearly have no concept of what I am talking about it. You quote lore blurbs at me of individual cases where the guard gets a rare puff piece, but omit that the same book lists three dozen worlds and systems falling as a footnote, thats called a speed bump if any of the imperiums enemies actually considered the guard an obstacle instead of laughing at it in every instance and it being swatted aside any place a named character or marketable new unit isn't conveniently involved.

arctic talon
#

Like

#

That’s what makes those rulebooks interesting

#

The fact it’s a back and forth

#

Worlds fall and get retaken

#

Literally everyone involved eats shit at one point or another

#

It’s not like this is exclusively a guard “issue”

#

The White Templars literally have 90% of their chapter die and all of the worlds they defend fall

#

Like everyone loses/wins

#

Named guard characters get treated the same as every other factions named character

#

The guard aren’t a joke

#

Just because they lose worlds

#

Like what sort of fucking logic is that

storm jungle
#

They killed angron

#

through a fucking looney toons trick

Which I don’t find likely anytime soon

vital kernel
# arctic talon Okay but it’s a back and forth. Do you just want the guard to literally never lo...

You're still missing the point.
Name me a single instance where any character in literature is like "oh shit they are sending seven guard regiments to retake our world, we better prepare"
or
"oh shit, there's four notorious guard regiments holding this world with lots of tanks, I think we need more help to tackle this one!"

Instead its always
"Lol, lmao even its just the guard, a hundred regiments? SLAUGHTERRR!!!, wait, they got a company of Salamanders! Flee! Run for your LIIIIVES!"

arctic talon
#

Haarken explictly warns the Iron Warriors not to attack the fortified guard position

#

as they're dangerous and will cause issues

#

Iron warriors ignore that and get fucking slaughtered

#

they ignore haarkens plans, get their transports shotdown by AA fire and then get slaughtered by artillery and tanks

#

Like

#

They are treated as a credible threat

arctic talon
#

they're also treated as a credible threat in all of the Killzone Chalnath stuff

#

Into the dark(the killteam box) has Necrons being worried about the guard as well

#

like

#

idk shrugpriest

#

there's not marines involved at all

#

unless you count the CSM getting fucking slaughtered in Nachmund

#

Crusade Pariah Nexus just has the necrons discredit everyone as a threat

#

so that doesn't really count

#

in Warzone Charadon Typhus plans around the Vallhallans and Skitarii forces and where they're most fortified

#

Abbadon in the fall of cadia explicitly avoids assaulting heavily fortified guard positions and gives orders not to do so without heavy support

#

I can go on and on if you want of people actually treating the guard as a threat

#

on a tactical scale

astral burrow

Who is agron

arctic talon

Angron is the Primarch of the World Eaters
