Hey people.
polar hill
Genuine question, 'cause I'm curious: How come Space Marines get their hate? Is it just because of SM Fans™️ (a la yours truly) or a narrative reason? Speaking as someone who actually used to hate 40K until a few years ago, it was Space Marines and the Horus Heresy that got me hooked; their diversity of characterization, their relationships with their gene-fathers and -cousins, their demeanor as tactical space knights, and so on. They're just such a rich part of the lore imo, so it gets my noggin going when people occasionally seem sick of them, is all
paper haven
From what I've experienced? The fans are the issue.
Space Marines themselves are fairly compelling (when written well)

Space Marine fans being the face of the IP get the most amount of fans and this unfortunately includes a ton of people that are just either sexists, racists, homophobes or straight up nazis among many other forms of chuddery due to the fact that they envoke a great sense of Epicness / Masculinity among other things as big dudes in armor. Thats the surface fandom side of things.
Secondly they are extremely overexposed and while they do somewhat get overhated you probably dont realise just how much they tend to hog spotlight and are just good at everything. They got the most minis, most books, most lore while most other factions (Imperials included) kinda largely barely get anything over the years or need to deal with their dudes always playing, second, third or fourth fiddle to them and accept it. I think overhating Marines is a bad thing but they unfortunately somewhat prove the reasons correct from the stuff both their fandom and GW does.
This really isnt that much of a conundrum imo.
late osprey

Because its just more Marines.
This is also a larger issue in itself where HH is slowly starting to hog even more attention away from the main setting because its nothing but space Marines. Primarchs also are another can of worms because they are essentially Marvel characters who everyone claps the moments they see them while soyjacking about how epic they are as they kill generic evil chaos champions or evil mindless aliens.

That would work
arctic talon
Cause this engine is really zoggin fast, and this big mek plans to tellyport it ...
Okay but more zoggin engines
tough haven
Cause sure they could attack the nearby forge world, but killing machines is less fun

There'd be engines on the various orbital platforms as well around an agri-world

And they’re harder to raid

Judge is by far the most stable of the zealots
Goes to show how insane the rest are
arctic talon
Imagine one of those modern excavation machines
late osprey
And they’re harder to raid
Orbital defenses would be a lot scarier around a forge world

Also attacking random largely un defended farming worlds is funny
arctic talon
But for harvesting like

Fanatic is just drunk tho

Besides that he is fine

“Blood for the emperor, skulls for the golden throne”

Which if the whole point is to REBUILD the spaceship, getting it more damaged fighting defense platforms is counterproductive
so yeah the agri world is the better idea
astral burrow
“Blood for the emperor, skulls for the golden throne”
I mean that does make sense in the context he is a creative guy, it is probably just a coincidence
tough haven
Also attacking random largely un defended farming worlds is funny
“I will attack strategically unimportant positions cause it’s less work, and more fun!”
astral burrow
The golden throne DOES have skulls
late osprey
hell, you could also just raid the agri world purely for all of its defense macro-batteries and strap those to the engines
using guns to fly around is definitely orky, and scientific!
astral burrow
Would the people who get decide if they kill them or not even know about that cheer
Or the blood god version?

Could even simply just decide they went there by accident
Roks are hard to steer

Could even simply just decide they went there by accident
i mean yeah if it's a damaged kroozer you don't exactly get to choose where you go
tough haven
Well rn the hulk is just floating
late osprey
although roks iirc specifically are for inter-system travel
or
intra-system
but same idea
you can't decide your location, and orks are very resourceful
just if i were a mekboy, my first thought would be the planet's capital would have the shiniest gubbinz
tough haven
although roks iirc specifically are for inter-system travel
Well the system we’re in warp travel doesn’t exactly work due to proximity to the rift
So everything will be in system
late osprey
and if that's where the PDF is based from too, that also means that's where the best fight would be
so you can have you cake-squig and eat it too
tough haven
This mek thinks he’s gonna fix up this hulk and then take it into Gork’s grin, to fight whatever is on the uvver side
After krumpin all the humie planets and taking their loot first, of course
late osprey
should stop by the local asteroid belt and throw some roks at the forge world

They probably will
