When the Orks' Attack Moon appeared over Terra, Haas was one of the Arbites mobilized to keep order as the planet's entire population descended into panicked madness.```
```Luthir Veremonn Goreman is a Lord Marshal of the Adeptus Arbites, ruling from the Precinct-Fortress on Scintilla in the Calixis Sector.
As commander of Arbites forces in the Calixis Sector, Goreman has overseen the creation of a special task force known as the Divisio Immoralis which hunts down insurgents and cults wherever they may be found.[1]```
```Virgil Ortega was a Captain of the Adeptus Arbites commanding all Arbites forces serving on the world of Pavonis.[1]
Ortega led his Arbites forces into battle but was slowly exhausted by the greater numbers of traitor troops. After becoming cornered in the Arbites' station house, Ortega and his remaining men detonated the arsenal, killing a large number of the traitors along with themselves, and also denying the traitor forces the largest available cache of weapons on the planet.```
Three quotes of Arbites in Lore and what they were up to. I could scrounge up more, but the point is that 40k is not a shallow pond regardless of how simplified claims by a lore blurb in new books are. The Adeptus Arbites like literally any other institution in the Imperium have an area if responsibility larger than anyone could possibly manage, thats the thing with the Imperium. And you can have as reductive as a view and as simplistic an interpretation of new sources as you wish, but it does not erase existing material and existing depth.First one is extraordinary circumstances, Terra was under assault
Second one is preventative measures
Third is a traitor uprising which has a minor effect on a planets exports

The codified Lex Imperialis is a labyrinth of laws and
ordinances that govern the Imperium’s scattered worlds.
Imperial Law is, for the most part, brutal and unyielding, yet
understanding every nuance of its breadth and scope is an
impossible task. In addition, the Lex Imperialis can be
interpreted with a myriad minute differences across the
galaxy, as many as the myriad different cultures in the
Imperium. More importantly, the Lex Imperialis does not
deal with the laws of specific planets. Instead, it deals with
the rule of the Imperium—in other words the Imperial Tithe
and the workings of the Imperium as a whole.
this is what they enforce

I can also correct you on a point of formal law. We are the Adeptus Arbites. The vessel by which the Emperor's laws have travelled down the ages. We light and keep the beacon of the Emperor’s Law so that all His Imperium can guide their lives by it, and we see to it that those who turn away from that beacon and cause themselves and others to stumble are made to pay. We determine the guilty, we decide the punishment. I have witnessed judgments of officers of the Navy and of the Imperial Guard and of planetary and system governors. I have twice helped to pass sentence on men and women of both those organizations, some of them more highly ranked than you, gate-captain.

40K lore has always been retconned each edition with new lore that replaced the older edition ones because the writers; who get to decide these, not you or me, or any of us; nail more ideas about the setting and bring them to more modern interpretations.

Im also saying this for the last time too; I know you like and care about the old lore a lot, I know you dislike the way "modern 40k" is being handled. You can simply agree to disagree with everyone here and just live with the version of 40k you want to have for yourself. Just do not argue against us like we are in the wrong and you are in the right.

Mendelian genetics is basically the idea that alleles come in two forms: dominant and recessive.

he's partying by absolutely slaughtering imperial worlds and getting his sons together for a good time
(murdering a bunch of people)
Also he's pissing off abbadon
because Fulgrim is indiscriminately murdering worlds at present lol
doesn't matter if its part of a chaos empire or controlled by chaos
if he wants to kill everyone on it he's gona do it
dapper gyro
Very ordinary chaos action
Does Fulgrim even like Abbadon? Dude always looks down on people, the once primarch with big dick pride looking up at a once marine...?

Eh all good.
Despite having a Gatcha mechanism, there is actually an entire lore filled gameplay mode with solid content that is not Gatcha dependent (basically Gatcha affects only one way out of two to enjoy the game, so to speak)
And the story there is actually…well, pretty intense lorewise lol
Actually managed to pull me away from Darktide for now
astral burrow
Lost me at gacha...
raven stone
Eh.
Not as zealous about it even if I see why it is an issue per se.
raven stone
Well, kudos to the commitment
I can definitely respect that
To me it is just a subset of gaming anyways. Meaning if I swear off Gacha technically I would have to swear off ALL games, because even without it I just play non Gacha games…and no I don’t whale in general (bar occasional one time purchases) so…yea.
astral burrow
Nah gacha games are like
Extremely different
A game that just has lootboxes for cosmetics or whatever or smth like darktides stat system don't really count
But something like girls frontline, arknights, limbus company
That's a full on gacha
raven stone
Yea, I do play those, but I tend to just stick to free stuff (and not necessarily grind for it, because ironically I do actually get bored of blind grinding without story context pretty quickly)
Some of those also have one off purchases.

he has talked to Guilliman with his mind though
has other people like confirmed that or does everyone just have to trust the primarch
i'm reading loads of emperor wiki now coz i only know him in the Horus Heresy

I don't think Guilliman told anyone in particular that they spoke, but I could misremember
it was experienced from Guilliman's perspective
in the book it happened

He's talked to Guilliman and Lion, he talks to the Custodians, and he's talked to various other important people. For a recent example, he's spoken to Titus in Space Marine 2

It was Galgar who bid him rise

Not at all
The Emperor has given boons to a bunch of people. See any Living Saint
And Titus has an unexplainable protection from Chaos, as seen in SM1, 2, and Secret Level

I don't believe there was a split, personally. It seems rather straightforward atm; the Cult had its fingers in noble pies, they accrued resources, they backed the Ragged King's Water Cartel to get access to the water supply monopoly, then swooped in and killed them all by the time we arrive at the Torrent
If there was a split, it would have been between the larger Cartel and Zola's crew, but Zola's crew were all killed by the Enforcers the Ragged King bribed

i think the split would been between ragged king hardliners and those who were personally indebted to the dregs like that one guy zola kills the brunt has to kill again later

I'm trying to remember the book where Grimnar fought Magnus and the grey Knights "reportedly heard the mad laughter of khorne" but I just can't find it. Because the quote is quite funny but I honestly don't believe it

“Probator Callis Alto, personal log. I’ve encountered something strange while investigating the local disappearances, a witness apparently had seen some sort of creature attack one of the victims, claiming it must have been a Daemon. The subject is hysterical but I believe he is telling the truth, I shall venture to the location myself and investigate.”

This is the stupidest fucking thing in the lore
its the most mary sue of mary sue things, like... ID MAYBE let it go if it wasnt for the fact that we got a much better written "character with a daemon weapon" in the form of Castellan Crowe
especially since the lore for it is also hilarious
where his weapon constantly actually tries to kill him
which is peak writing

I found it, war zone fenris it's a campaign supplement

My favorite thing is if the daemonsword is facing off against a daemon it doesnt like it then actually HELPS Crowe in defeating it

"Logan leapt. The double-headed power axe slammed into Magnus's chest, shattering arcane wards and piercing his breastplate to bite deep. In the distance, thunder rumbled long and loud. Only the psykers present heard it for what it was the laughter of the Blood God himself."

my note on this is that it alludes to a genestealer infestation, but not a genestealer cult, two ultimately vastly different things in practice

Does any kind soul have a close-up of an Arbites buckle aquila?

if it WAS a genestealer infestation you wanted to warn for, its awesome
but the cult elements aren't quite there if you wanted them to be
difference being Space Hulk and the RT DLC basically
genestealers bursting out of the walls en masse vs like one at the end of a huge saga

“Probator Callis Alto, personal log, likely my last. ——a fool to come here, I’ve seen it ——-stalking me, I can feel it crawling around in my mind! It is NOT a daemon, I repeat, it is NOT a daemon!
