no fucking wonder they lost the case lmao

arctic talon
#

They didn’t win the case + the judge told them to fuck off + put restrictions on them making rules for things without minis

#

Lol

#

It went shit for everyone involved

#

Like I said

nocturne crest
#

Oh shit, they tanked their own stock because of this stuff.

storm jungle
#

Yeah a lot of people today dont know warhammer as an IP went under like almost 4 times lol

late osprey
#

there was a time where GW was like fanatical about protecting its IP to the point of self-destruction

#

nowadays its comparatively chilled the fuck out

storm jungle
#

They also ousted their CEO from that era lol

late osprey
#

bro thought he was working at nintendo

#

i think also it was during a time where they were really, really struggling to profit from non-mini media after DoW had run its course and everything

storm jungle
#

Turns out its way easier to sue everyone when you are basically untouchable

#

not when you are ontop of a very niche market

#

lol

late osprey
#

they were doing a whole ass shotgun method if you remember that where every other warhammer game was something utterly deranged conceptually

#

but now that they have some strong hitters like TWarhammer and Darktide they can be more secure

astral burrow
#

I wish silly plastic men wasn't such a big industry with so much drama

#

It is just tiny plastic guys...

#

GW executives should sit down and paint some and calm down

astral burrow
storm jungle
#

yes?

#

i guess?

late osprey
#

now all they have to do is get Duncan Rhodes back to GW

astral burrow
#

Nice

storm jungle
#

the company hasnt imploded

astral burrow
#

As good as a CEO can be ig

astral burrow
#

I like darktide

late osprey
#

it depends on what the CEO was signed on to do, which i doubt they were especially public about

#

like if you want to really evaluate the performance i mean

arctic talon
#

went fucking crazy lol

#

when fucking Lego was making all their own weird game systems

arctic talon
#

if you would consult the chart

#

LOL

late osprey
#

Max is cheating

arctic talon
#

well

late osprey
#

but 100% over 5 years is still good

arctic talon
#

If we just start from like

#

7e tbh

#

its already absurd

late osprey
#

and they basically doubled EPS over 5 years too

#

which is very good

arctic talon
#

yeah for 5 years you can see the end of edition dip lol

#

as usual

late osprey
#

most of the drops seem to be people spazzing out when GW can't keep up identical growth in a multi-year project based business model

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

lol

storm jungle
#

COVID has also extremely helped them

#

like, insanely so lol

arctic talon
#

yeah COVID was

#

fucking insane

#

8e already had the hobby grow like crazy

#

post covid 40k is even bigger

storm jungle
#

yeah they are off that high but its still going good

arctic talon
#

(its no longer like over 70% marines at most events)

#

lol

#

now its more like

#

25-30%

#

which is more tolerable lol

arctic talon
#

which could happen

#

but GW is so safe with decision making I find it unlikely

storm jungle
#

alas 😔

astral burrow
#

214 what? Billion?

arctic talon
#

each stock in the company Gamesworkshop is worth 214$ USD rn

astral burrow
#

And how many are there?

arctic talon
#

A lot

astral burrow
#

Like a billion?

arctic talon
#

GW also still has majority control

#

probably not that many

#

jesus lol

astral burrow
#

A million?

arctic talon
#

GW has: 32,971,713 stocks in issue

astral burrow
#

arctic talon
#

astral burrow
#

Wow*

#

Buy some

arctic talon
#

astral burrow
#

I don't have 214$

#

Should have bought some in 2020

late osprey
astral burrow
#

Blah blah blah

late osprey
#

so it's $214 per share, but that matters because last year it was <$100

astral burrow

the navy techs put a chicken in one of their computers to make it work

arctic talon

Based

astral burrow
#

Is that even true

late osprey
#

and it actually did, it stopped working the moment their officer tried to remove the chicken

#

i dont know if its true or not but its funny lol

astral burrow
#

They attach a box with chicken bones

late osprey
#

yeah thats the one

astral burrow
#

If they remove it, the machine stops

#

I am gonna rizz up hadron so hard

arctic talon
# late osprey and it actually did, it stopped working the moment their officer tried to remove...

Kuai Kuai culture is a phenomenon in Taiwan wherein people put snacks of the brand Kuai Kuai (Chinese: 乖乖; pinyin: guāiguāi; Wade–Giles: kuai1kuai1) next to or on top of machines. People who do this believe that, because the name of the snack—"Kuai Kuai"—stands for "obedient" or "well-behaved," it will make a device function without ...

astral burrow

Who knew the machine spirits liked snacks

Lemme ask my taiwanese friend for confirmation

arctic talon
late osprey
arctic talon
#

this is a real thing that major taiwanse companies have in server rooms lol

vagrant fox
#

I've seen some major superstition around printers from even nonreligious people

#

It seems to work more often than not

storm jungle
#

Printers are the device of Satan its true

late osprey
#

it's pretty fascinating just how pervasive superstitions are even with otherwise entirely rational people

#

consider the myriad superstitions around sports, too

#

it seems to be that those things manifest whenever it concerns something that we don't have any real control over

astral burrow
astral burrow
#

That's hilarious lmao

arctic talon
astral burrow
#

Does it genuinely work?

arctic talon
#

but in terms of like how immersed I am in a culture aside from American its def Taiwan over japan

#

lol

astral burrow
#

My old PC of 13 years used to make weird noises every so often

#

When it was barely working, had to be turned on by hard wiring it

arctic talon
astral burrow

astral burrow
#

Expire

arctic talon
#

yes it expires

astral burrow
#

Or do u eat it and regularly replace

arctic talon
#

you gotta replace them

late osprey

arctic talon

its expired food

late osprey

that nowhere else does

crystal forum
astral burrow

Wtf is human capital

#

Like, manpower?

Just say manpower

arctic talon

Taiwan, Japan and China are all like

about the same levels of hell

#

from what I can tell

astral burrow
#

Hong Kong?

#

I have a friend from Hong Kong, she doesn't seem to struggle

arctic talon
#

Hong Kong has been integrated into the chinese education system now

#

she doesn't struggle because she's used to it

#

is the big thing

astral burrow
#

She is an uuuh

arctic talon

you get used to doing that much work

astral burrow

Computer science major or smth

And a great artist

late osprey

yeah just different upbringings have different lifestyles in mind

crystal forum
#

taiwanese electronics manufacturing is next level quantity. you should see their factories

arctic talon

yeah

#

the fabs are insane lol

crystal forum

mind boggling

astral burrow

I would never survive a day in asian education system

astral burrow
arctic talon
#

LOL

#

Its too clean

#

for the imperium smh

astral burrow
#

It got dirty

#

We are there to clean

arctic talon
#

now the server rooms

crystal forum
#

im not very knowledgeable on automation engineering but i'm learning it a bit from my new job

late osprey
#

you have to keep the area clean for very small electronics like semiconductors

#

like SUPER clean

arctic talon
#

Also TSMC is like absurdly secretive lol

#

you can check their privacy policy on their website

#

for like employees

crystal forum
#

ah no their cleanrooms aren't that high level

late osprey
#

even the smallest pieces of dirt can fuck them up

crystal forum
#

that's just for silicon wafer production

astral burrow
#

My countries education system isn't any better

crystal forum
#

the cleanrooms aren't as high as you think

astral burrow
#

Well, not in a brutal way

#

It is just dogshit and inefficient

arctic talon
#

anyways K-12 education for me wasn't that bad

#

because my parents sent me to Hell cram school over the summer in both Taiwan and Japan

astral burrow
#

I am 3 years late to university smh smh

arctic talon
#

depending on which side I was visiting

#

anyways that sucked

#

a lot

crystal forum
#

the problem with cleanrooms is scale. they're very expensive to install and huge factories require insane amounts of ventilation, not to mention ESD flooring

astral burrow
#

I wish I had relatives in another country, sounds fun

arctic talon
#

like a lot a lot

#

oh

#

they don't live in another country

late osprey
arctic talon
#

they just took me back to see family

crystal forum
#

so they segment the cleanrooms into levels where silicon wafer production is the highest

vagrant fox
#

Dog I would've rebelled against cram school, I'd join the delinquents

astral burrow
#

I did always have summer school in middle school

crystal forum
#

since that's the most susceptible to dirt

astral burrow
#

But in high school I didn't give a damn

arctic talon
#

which was legal up until like

astral burrow
#

So no summer school there

arctic talon
#

2010? or something

crystal forum
#

it's not even dirt actually it's mostly human skin cells

arctic talon
#

yeah that makes sense

#

do they not wear like

astral burrow
#

Then I spent an entire year in cram school lmao

arctic talon
#

suits

astral burrow
#

5 years of high school

crystal forum

arctic talon

Cram school is funny

But at what cost

vagrant fox

I just managed to get under the beatings, my sister was beaten into being right-handed in school

arctic talon

eh its not that bad

astral burrow

This year I am just studying on my own at home

astral burrow

I like seeing long hair and beard

#

I pick them in games

#

But holy shit even a slight stubble or a slightly long hair bothers me so much

#

Idc how good I look in it, it is torture

crystal forum

another part of cleanrooms is ESD ratings which are just as important

late osprey

#

The coat?

crystal forum

How can I hint that a forge world has uncovered necrons without giving too much away, rn I have reports that most of the workers in charge of excavation have gone mad, refusing to work, screaming about giant metal insects, spouting doomsday prophecies, and painting strange sigils in their blood (necron script), y’all think this is enough to imply that further investigation may be needed without revealing the nature of the threat to those who don’t know necrons?

#

I like this idea, but I’m not sure if it’s big enough to warrant a rogue trader dispatching a team to look into it

Good idea

I just wanted a little something to make our Aeldari party member’s spidey sense tingle about their ancient foe

But like “oh shit, maybe we should check this out”

outer wave
#

Madness could also work, but you gotta make it vague enough that it keeps the party guessing (like mentioning metallic bugs or atomization will tip them off)

tough haven
#

Cause the party has multiple threats on multiple worlds and has to decide which to prioritize with minimal info

#

And I want to strike the right balance of accuracy, without completely underselling the threat, cause necrons are in my opinion, the biggest threat to leave operating unchecked

Cause once it snowballs to a certain point, you’re fucked

Extremely based sisters.

#

Holy shit lol

rocky gale
#

Sisters got some of the most fucked up shit in the Imperium at times

arctic talon
#

That sounds

#

Painful

rocky gale
#

Like there's a Canoness with a torture room that's got like a Heretic in a vat with medical equipment that will keep her alive and conscious, which is filled with an incredibly weak acid that will take atleast 1000 years to kill her, just dissolving her slowly.

#

Like why the hell do they do it

arctic talon
#

That was

#

Creepy

rocky gale
#

They revere Saint Lucia, who was tortured by Cultists for months. One of the methods they used was flensing the skin from her hands

#

So they do it to themselves to remember her pain

queen laurel
#

You know what that makes sense you know

arctic talon
#

Yeah that tracks

flint dock
rocky gale
#

There's also an order that revere Saint Lucia by taking a vow of silence in honour of the Sisters who were captured alongside Lucia, the Cultists tortured them first hoping their screams would break her, but the Sisters realised that's what they we trying to do so they remained silent throughout and refused to make a sound so Lucia wouldn't hear.

#

But I can't remember their name

Insane lunatics is a given already when talking about the ecclisarchy

#

Everyday I fight the urge to buy two of these

arctic talon
#

God

#

What a cool mini

queen laurel
#

You know what yeah i understand damn that is cool

rocky gale
#

One to build as the Triumph itself, the other to use the models on it as unique HQs

arctic talon
#

So many good bits tbh

rocky gale
#

Like get that and you could easily use them as a Palatine, 3 Canonesses, a Dogmata and a Dialogus

#

and I dunno, use the Coffin itself as a unique Objective Marker

cause most of them are standing apart so it should be doable

Anyone got ideas for shit I can have happen to my party as they travel through the void in-system to spice the journey up?

Easily kitbash able, easily used for kitbashes, but the original kit is so cool that you buy it anyway

Yea, each of the Sisters on it is completely seperate, so it's so easy to just build them and stick them on a separate base

Gamers, is Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters worth it at 11,24 euro

75% off is tempting 🤔

queen laurel
#

It is one of the considered good warhammer games

#

That title means more then it seems

vagrant fox

That's often how it goes, Warhammer games tend to not live up to all of my expectations

#

I'd recommend it, yeah.

#

The DLC Megabundle at $20 isn't terrible either.

#

$20 for 70 hours of fun I call satisfactory

vagrant fox
#

Good enough recommendations, yeah why not

late osprey

This also happened like

All I know is that it's morty time loading screen

So I can help you out on mechanics if you'd like, at any difficulty more than like

#

the easiest

#

It's HARD

#

I had to restart the campaign like 5 times before I was stabilized

vagrant fox
#

Noice, hopefully my x-com long war practice aill help

late osprey
#

It's very reminiscent of the long war strategically, actually

#

like long war, the strategy changes based on if you have the DLC or not tbh

#

no-DLC is a much easier experience

They haven’t

#

Guilliman I think doesn’t know yet

dusky scroll
#

Of course they met. They've worked together during Heresy afaik.

#

Oh wait..

#

btw, are Sisters of Silence infertile, like Space Marines, Grey Knights and Custodes?

celest dome
#

No

languid meadow
#

Are custodes infertile?

#

I don't remember actually

celest dome
#

We don't know tbf

dusky scroll
#

They can stay erect for a century..

Edit: as guards...

arctic talon

#

I was just a bit curious about what they do after they (Custodes and SoS) retire.

"and as a further safeguard against distraction and as a biological control, both are of course incapable of procreation"

Thanks

#

Are Primarchs infertile?

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

Probably

dusky scroll
#

We know God Emperor is not.

arctic talon
#

They’re not human

#

Regarding primarchs

#

They’re abhumans technically

#

Lol

dusky scroll
celest dome
#

Mutant tbf

#

Or Artificials

dusky scroll
#

They're actually officially classified that way?

celest dome
#

Not exactly

#

Like lore wise they're classed in their own bubble

dusky scroll
#

But... it's not like they were built. They were born, just without a womb.

arctic talon
#

They were built sorta

#

Genetically

#

They aren’t naturally made

celest dome
#

They're made in part with Warp stuff

dusky scroll
#

Won't that make psykers abhuman?

arctic talon
#

They are yes

celest dome
#

Well legaly they are

arctic talon
#

Psykers and voidborn are 2 abhuman strains that can reproduce with humans

#

Though

celest dome
#

Technically they're mutant
Same for certain Blanks strains

arctic talon
#

Yeah that

burnt jackal
#

I thought Primarchs were just some kinda warp beings stuffed into meat puppet bodies

arctic talon
#

Well

celest dome
#

But in any case Primarchs are wholly crafted artificial beings and it's difficult to class them.
Vat Grown Abhuman could be something, but they're not stable per se

storm jungle
#

Nah

arctic talon
#

They’re also just genetically diffrent

#

Lol

burnt jackal
#

that too

storm jungle
#

the warp-thing is like a Marvel superpower shit

#

its some Xmen nonsense

#

lol

burnt jackal
#

Makes sense

#

Well

#

not really

storm jungle
#

Pretty much

burnt jackal
#

but your statement does lol

storm jungle
#

Yeah like

#

its better to treat primarchs as superheroes

#

its pretty much what they are

burnt jackal
#

The only thing that makes somewhat sense to me bc we can get a visual idea of it is Corax

storm jungle
#

(AND the slop that comes with that tag)

arctic talon
#

Don’t worry soon we’ll have glorpus the saturnine terminator praetor

#

Kill Horus

#

And then the Horus heresy never happens

burnt jackal
#

someone say Horus?

storm jungle
#

🏇

burnt jackal
#

who is the warhammer equivalent to Glup Shitto

#

i need answers

arctic talon
#

There’s no such name

#

For generally

#

Now I wonder if there are alternate heresy but it's Sigmar spawning in 40k and just taking power against the Emperor or something

Weird thing, Primarchs were made to be perfect but still some has male pattern baldness.

They just

Have you considered that

Bald is a valid haircut lol

#

This is 40k lore chat, didn't wanna go offtopic here. I fear getting disciplined.

No worries, this one is lore but as someone said yesterday also a "'more tame main chat" at times

I have relatively long hair, which I grew without any plan

did you guys hear that boltgun 2 will have Khorne daemons?

late osprey
#

For the Monodominants!

celest dome
#

Why do some dislike Ar-be-tes and prefer Ar-bites

tough haven
#

Cause Ar-bites is the canonically accurate version

celest dome
#

Well, Ar-be-tays would be what I think have been used before

languid meadow
#

It has

vital kernel
#

I call them Ar-bi-tees

languid meadow
#

Didn't GW come out and say it's ar-bee-tees?

storm jungle
#

It is but most people (understandably) ignore it

#

especially since even official material/voicework etc doesnt say it that way

vital kernel
#

Lets hear the official version of Astartes

pearl brook
#

I mean who really cares about latin pronunciation. Even the ancient romans constantly changed how the pronounced words ...

storm jungle
#

Pretty much.

#

Its like how they also went

#

"all lasguns fire yellow beams"

#

cue all the times they dont

pearl brook
#

Inconsistency is the only consistency at GW. Truly a british company KEKW_ogryn

storm jungle
#

Truly lol

vital kernel
#

Wasnt yellow lasers more of a 6th edition artwork thing that was never officially laid out?

storm jungle
#

No because even then books/artwork displayed them with red lasers

#

it was always contradictory

#

so its just whatever the artist was feeling at the time

vital kernel
#

I remember some yellow lasers in artwork

storm jungle
#

Yeah its what the warcom post displays

celest dome
#

Easy answer is that it depend on the weapon mark

shadow plover
#

there has been plenty of yellow, and plenty of red and everything in between

#

even blue

storm jungle
umbral kraken

arbeetrator

shadow plover
#

I am woke incarnate

vital kernel
#

I think lasguns should be able to have any colour laser.
I like the green of the heretics in uhhh space marine 2

storm jungle
#

Yeah its why them trying to set up a concrete precedence for it is kinda stupid

#

like who cares lol

lament shoal
#

Red is just most common

shadow plover
#

if the warcom article writers just looked up Kopinski art for source material I'd say it's based and accurate enough to say it represents the whole of the universe megachingryn

storm jungle
#

to be fair

#

Kopinski's art IS peak

vital kernel
#

Might just depend on the lasrifle and be a choice like tracer colours for bullets.

Different nations had different colour tracers to identify sides and calibers. Germans had green I think, americans red? British were yellow IIRC.

lament shoal
#

Likely a difference in model

#

Power weapons are the same

shadow plover
#

I said it before but my headcanon is just the colour depends on how powerful the shot is, red is lower power whereas yellow / closer to white is a more powerful shot

vital kernel
#

Laser colour is easy, plasma colour meanwhile is tricky

storm jungle
#

wait wrong IP

lament shoal
#

We got an official salamanders captain joy toy model with an orange power sword

#

Looks pretty dope

#

Red is too iconic to change fr

#

It is the most recognizable

#

But maybe it's like swtor where you can just change the color by changing a part inside

vital kernel
#

When you ask a GW exec to clarify lasgun colours they probably hit you with one of these

astral burrow
#

They probably just hit you

late osprey
#

They CLAIM warhammer 40k has a lot of interesting worldbuilding, and yet they never talk about the las-lore.

#

Curious.

#

Deep as a puddle!

storm jungle
#

Its either las-lore or Warhammer Crime content

#

i know which im picking

late osprey

vital kernel
#

I'm not sure if any warhammer material ever established the existance of birth control on hive worlds or they rely on pollution to take care of that.

storm jungle
#

If he dies. He dies.

#

Next question.

late osprey
#

it's probably just a thing for the elites for dynastic control purposes

lament shoal
vital kernel
#

More so the question if hive administrations practice any sort of population control.

storm jungle
#

Depends on the world.

#

Most wouldnt bother because its logistically impossible.

vital kernel
#

Yeah I figure so aswell. Maybe put some chemicals in the water to reduce fertility or something.

late osprey
#

Actually I did remember that mass sterilization is a thing and the Inquisition's done it before to exterminate a planet

#

It's how they genocided the original Armageddon population

storm jungle
#

Yeah but thats not really regular birth-control.

#

Its the more uhhh "nazi"-like kind of birth control

#

Speaking of it was also sterilization and being sent to die in camps.

late osprey
#

Just complete mask-off villainy

#

Imperium defenders be like

storm jungle
#

Penalcamp

#

because saying concentration-camp is prob too on the nose

Theres also entire worlds dedicated to that kind of thing so it becomes even more fucked up and funny.

I genuinely wonder how Imperium Planets decide their niche

storm jungle
opaque coyote
#

Like do they just decide or is it like

#

Planet discovered

#

Wipe out any sentient life that isn't human

#

Contact adminstratum

#

Wait like 1050 years for them to send it's role

#

Or do they just decide

#

like

#

"Yeah fuck it, it's a mining planet"

spring cairn
#

you'll be shocked to learn that they designate a world a mining planet when it's rich in valuable ores

spring cairn
#

after conducting a geological survey no less

opaque coyote
#

But yeah I was thinking more of like

Let's say the planet is just filled with natural resource

#

It could be good for either an Agri World

#

or a Mining world

#

How do they decide

#

Like if it's a fucking empty rock with good ore resources then it's mining obviously

#

But I genuinely wonder how do they do the weird inbetween cases

#

also what is the critera for a hive world?

#

"Has breathable air"

?
