#

and also the dead started rising from the swamp

queen laurel
#

And what does grey water do on their side to help ease the alliance hopefully

arctic talon
#

Greywater fastness has a zombie, and skeleton issue

arctic talon
#

The sylvaneth want them gone now

#

but there's a treaty in place

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

No

#

the sylvaneth are ironically less xenophobic

#

they only get mad when you start fucking with their specific groves

#

which are marked

#

with a giant GLOWING RUNE

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

yes

#

there's literally a City of Sigmar thats ontop of one

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Hammerhal Ghyra

#

now granted if you start messing with the trees in it

#

you will probably disapear in a back alley

rose thorn
#

We’re talking about AOS?!

queen laurel
#

sylvaneth xenophobia

arctic talon
#

my GOATs

#

they do nothing wrong

#

ever

#

totally

#

those random people deserved to die for needing firewood

rose thorn
#

DGpityStare they do have at least semi permanent Allie’s depending on the glade

arctic talon
#

Yeah

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

There’s the ironbark being besties with duardin, idk if the one in the green lake are friends with the Idoneth still or not

arctic talon
#

The ones in the green lake are indifferent

#

the ones in Hammerhal Ghyra are friends

#

unless you start fucking with their specific groves

rose thorn
#

Living city is living city

arctic talon
#

but at that point thats like breaking someones window

#

and wondering why they're mad at you

#

lol

rose thorn
#

Lmao

arctic talon
#

"why do the Duradin want to kill me after I pushed over one of their statues smh"

rose thorn
#

Technically the Sylvaneth and greywater fastness have a pact, but it’s uh

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

“Yeah god says not to completely murder the other side

queen laurel
#

And use your blood as fertilizer

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

me when the zombies are a bigger issue

#

anyways GHYRA!!!!!!!!

Hammerhal_Ghyra_02.png

Best mortal realm

#

I am not biased

#

absolutely 0 bias

rose thorn
#

My favorite is shyish or Ghur probably

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

reasonable

arctic talon
#

still annoyed hammerhal's relics are mostly aqshy stuff

#

smh

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

yeah and its hilarious

queen laurel
queen laurel
#

a lot of vital supplies come from there

digital glacier
#

I hate that the objectively best Realm is still not that explored in AoS

#

Azyr

#

Aurora Borealis going on all the time every day

rose thorn
celest dome
#

Is Hysh not a nicer realm to live on ?

digital glacier
#

Mostly

arctic talon
#

Hysh is. fine

#

its very very bright

digital glacier
#

But I reckon that may not last forever

#

AoS has been tending towards a darker theme, slowly but steadily

celest dome
#

The only reason I kind of want a FS game in AoS is to see all the realms, and some of the smaller ones

digital glacier
#

I'd imagine you'd only ever see a handful of Realms at most

celest dome
#

I could see them do all the realms over the course of the game

#

More so if they do "sectors" again

queen laurel
#

so that they have a lot of choices

#

for characters

digital glacier
#

Yeah, we really need more on the ground stories for AoS

celest dome
#

Or reincarnate the U5 if they need to

queen laurel
celest dome
#

What, why

digital glacier
#

The U5 get to do what they do best

queen laurel
# celest dome What, why

ain't no way after all they went through you're deciding to bring them back to life for more work KEKW_ogryn

digital glacier
#

FOR ETERNITY

celest dome
#

If they do VT3 (imo no) they ought to continue/return the U5

digital glacier
#

PRAISE SIGMAR!

queen laurel
#

Bro out here defying in only in death does duty and

celest dome
#

🤞 that FS's next project isn't SM, isn't 40k, isn't with GW, and isn't Ip based

vital ginkgo
#

Anyone know when Danie Ware's Sister Augusta series takes place?

green loom
#

It takes place at a point in time

#

Aka we don't know, 40k stories generally don't have fixed dates

#

The biggest indicator we have is like

#

Pre or post great rift

restive lion
#

Would it be possible for a guards men to be on ||cadia when it fell|| and also be on tertium during the events of darktide?

digital glacier
#

Sure

#

Maybe it hasn't been that long since the fall of Cadia

green loom
digital glacier
#

Maybe those soldiers traveled into the future as part of a Warp rift

restive lion
#

Gotcha thanks

green loom
#

On char creation their readup starts with "I watched a world die"

#

And they constantly mention the fall of cadia

#

So kinda safe bet they were there

restive lion
#

Oh

green loom
restive lion
#

Still can’t believe the guard kept fighting even after ||cadia fractured||

green loom
#

Thank goodness the Kasrs were pressurized

restive lion
#

What’s a kasrs? (I don’t know much about 40k lore)

green loom
#

A Kasr is one of the fortress cities of Cadia

restive lion
#

Ohhhhhhh

sharp pollen
#

Sorry for ai but this shit is too funny KEKW_ogryn

#

This new fucking meme KEKW_ogryn

chrome owl
#

Jump pak has seen better days 😔

digital glacier
#

Love me Plaige Marines

vital ginkgo
green loom
#

It's the only one we have

#

40k authors don't usually bother with the date and half the time the dates we're given make no sense

#

We're all over the place rn but before most things perpetually happened in 999 M41

vital ginkgo
#

Alrighty 👍

opaque coyote
opaque coyote
#

Warp travel and being an intergalactic empire does that. Time dilation is a bitch.

#

There are literal arguments and wars over what year

#

All they know is that it's probably in the 41st/42nd millennium

#

Maybe

#

So even in lore, if you asked people what year it is.

#

You are probably gonna start a fight

#

Because somebody said that it's the 39th millennium.

Then the 36th

#

And so on and so forth

#

So basically in both a watsonian and doylist sense

#

It's one big

#

"idk lol"

digital glacier
#

Personally I was shocked as anyone when I saw that they added dates to AoS of all things

golden imp
#

Why do people want Russ to save the eldar goddess? Should it not be the eldar who do that lol

#

Isha

digital glacier
#

Come on... Eldar? Doing something?!?

celest dome
arctic talon
#

Jokes aside it’s because they like Marines a lot

#

And want something big to happen when the biggest marines of all a primarch comes back

storm jungle
#

Yeah its generally just dumbass space marine favoritism

raven stone
#

Sadly we don’t see the same suggestion with Khan

arctic talon
#

Russ was known to be looking for the “tree of life” to cure the emperor

#

Before he went poof

#

That’s why the theory even exists

#

If isha is freed it should be the eldar that do it lol

#

I don’t even care which flavor

#

Some farseers and warlocks got close once

digital glacier
#

40K is the House Mehreens built

#

For better and often for worse imho

arctic talon
#

Anyways GW hasn’t done something that inane yet

#

So I don’t think they will

#

Regarding Russ and Isha

raven stone
#

It is worth remembering Guilliman and Yvraine is nothing more than the fan memes

#

possibly of desperately lonely guys, but I don’t want to push it that far.

arctic talon
#

GW has them literally talk about how once the alliance ends they’ll likely try to kill each other lol

golden imp
#

I would really like more white scars content or learn what the khans been up to. Know they never sold as well as the others but I thought they were really cool

#

I heard some YouTuber say he is doing donuts in the parking lot outside of vect’s palace on his bike which is funny

storm jungle
#

If he did that he'd get thrown into a blackhole or pocket dimension

golden imp
#

Nah, he’d out speed them

#

He’s just too fast

#

Yeah I don’t really know how the khan would work out in commorragh. He’s supposedly insanely fast but dark eldar kinda don’t play fair lol

arctic talon
#

He's in the clown zone

#

is my bet

storm jungle
#

people really like

arctic talon
#

I'm of the opinion if he's in comorragh

storm jungle
#

dont realise how badly dangerous dark eldar are in most parts of commorragh

#

lol

arctic talon
#

he's doing nothing

#

lol

#

or rather not doing anything important

storm jungle
#

Hes lucky more that nobody cares about him

arctic talon
#

yeah

storm jungle
#

if Vect knew hes alive he'd be fucked

arctic talon
#

Tbh I'm of the opinion he's in the black library

#

He just got lost in the webway

#

somewhere

golden imp
#

I’m really sad TTS ended before we gotta to see the khan in commorragh

#

Wanted too see their take on it

storm jungle
#

tbh its basically probably what you all said

#

its a pretty low hanging fruitbowl of ideas so lol

vital ginkgo
#

Do the dawn of war dlcs have any relevance to the blood raven story?

mossy peak
#

what’s a primaris

digital glacier
#

Yes, @vital ginkgo

hexed trail
sacred ginkgo
# mossy peak what’s a primaris

"second generation" space marines with more organs and improved biology, in addition to new equipment
They were made because GW wanted to rescale marines so they released an entire new range

hexed trail
#

They got 3 extra organs, are a little bigger and just overall perform better

#

Also fun fact the older space marines generation can be made primaris if they are fit enough and lucky enough to survive the procedure

sacred ginkgo
#

You get a free pass if you had a mini before

digital glacier
#

I haven't heard of a named character dying from Crossing the Rubicon

storm jungle
#

they have canon endings as well

#

like how Boreal cost the entire Chapter half its companies

hexed trail
arctic talon
#

by The Arks of Omen stuff

hexed trail
#

Oh so it's improved

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

bcs they're not flying blind now

storm jungle
#

Me when performing Rubicon Primaris

arctic talon
#

yeah like that basicially lol

hexed trail
#

Do the black templars still kill any new batch of primaris sent to them

arctic talon
#

that was one specific crusade

#

and they fuckin died

storm jungle
#

^

#

It was one singular incident

#

if that was like

arctic talon
#

the main crusade accepted them

#

lol

storm jungle
#

a large public occurence they'd get exterminated lol

hexed trail
#

Ah okay

#

Aren't black templars like 10 chapters big

vital ginkgo
#

Do the dlc stories have any relevant connection to the main story

arctic talon
#

I mean the Blood ravens got humiliated because of that dumbass boreal

storm jungle
#

they all got canon endings decided by GW/next games

arctic talon
#

Gorgutz won

#

he beat everyone

#

oh also the C'tan got retcon'd into being a shard

#

and the pariahs don't exist but yknow

vital ginkgo
#

Alrighty thanks 👍

digital glacier
#

Basically Marines won Dark Crusade, Orks won the Soulstorm one

hexed trail
#

The only semi successful Warhammer game in recent times that didn't get a canon ending which tied back into the bigger narrative was battlefleet gothic armada 2 I think

storm jungle
#

Yeah its only non-canon after Spire gets out of the Warp

#

because he does some wild shit lol

hexed trail
#

Is spire a canon character

late osprey
#

yeah i was shocked at how the campaigns just have you casually wasting critical setting characters

#

have to respect it for de-marvelizing at least

storm jungle
#

^

storm jungle
#

Any game with a GW warhammer stamp on it is canon

late osprey
#

we can rationally assume that BGA 2 is literally canon as well, it's just Spire's Warp-filled hallucination after the gellar field flickered

storm jungle
#

Lol or that yeah

#

its like THE only 40k game in existence where you can kill big-name canon characters.

#

Its actually hilarious

late osprey
#

Nothing like Darkhammer's Wild Ride having you blow up ALL of the eldar leaders in one mission

#

I went into it like "Oh I see so we're just gonna push them out of the sector and make them retreat right?"

#

Boy did Darkhammer have other plans

storm jungle
#

Its even funnier when you blow him up

#

and nothing happens

#

because Spire has like so many famous political figures backing him up

late osprey
#

When I looked up how Darkhammer's basically a cover art character and you still just nuke him casually

#

It was wack

arctic talon
#

I do love how derranged they get

#

with each of the campaigns

#

I wish we got an Eldar and Ork one as well

#

we got a nid one but no Eldar or Ork

#

smh

storm jungle
#

Same but alas poor sales

arctic talon
#

The chaos one must have sold like

#

shit

storm jungle
#

we were also gonna get BFG3 but it got cancelled

arctic talon
#

FUCK

storm jungle
#

Yeah i have a friend who worked as a ship modeller/concept artist

#

basically iwas greenlit by GW

#

the issue was

#

GW said the studio must fund the game completely themselves, when GW usually helps with the process

#

lmfao

#

so they were like "nah nvm"

late osprey
#

Two choices for your campaign around interesting subfactions and dialogue between characters:
Culturally-Diverse Eldar

Actual nonsentient copy-pasted bugs

#

The answer WILL shock you

arctic talon
#

the nid campaign

#

is also genuinely super boring

#

I'm 99% sure they made it because it was way less effort

late osprey
#

that was my thought as i was typing that up

arctic talon
#

you just got narrator lady as the only character

late osprey
#

it had to have been just because it was much easier to make

#

especially since imo chaos campaign is the best one (aside from the main one obviously)

arctic talon
#

If they had to do Ynnari

#

god

#

You have Yvraine Vissarch the pirate dude

late osprey
#

being the one that actually cost money

arctic talon
#

the chaos one and base imperial one are the best

#

then necrons in third/second place

#

Nids can go pound sand

storm jungle
#

tbh like

#

the Nid campaign's only saving grace

#

is the comedy

#

"HOLY EMPEROR I CAN HEAR THEM IN THE WALLS"

opaque coyote
storm jungle
#

ship expodes

opaque coyote
#

Russ thinks it's the Emperor

#

Turns out it was Isha

late osprey
#

An Eldar campaign would've been legendary for BG

opaque coyote
#

Idk it was a half baked thing

late osprey
#

What could've been...

storm jungle
#

Yeah because like-

#

the writing for this game is actually excellent

#

the banter is legendary for just portraits on a message box

#

Its why when people ask I ALWAYS recommend them to watch an all-cutscenes video on youtube

opaque coyote
#

What game?

#

Battlefleet Gothic

#

Judging by the

#

Acronyms

storm jungle
#

Yeah Battlefleet

opaque coyote
#

Haven't played it (yet).

But I have seen some yt videos

#

The dialogue is genuinely entertaining

#

I will give it that

storm jungle
#

Yeah the actual game is too hard for me lol

opaque coyote
#

Actually really interesting to see so many interactions between all the different factions

#

Like I think this is also why Dawn of War was loved so much as well

#

Since DoW had many hypotheticals and banters between the factions

#

Think my favorite is the Imperial Guard vs Space Marines

late osprey
#

and BFG2 still is one of those games where I have to restart my campaign like 20 times

#

I legitimately got filtered by the first one's first non-tutorial mission

opaque coyote
#

I like this interaction despite it being short

#

Also

#

The chapel comment is scathing lmao

#

And also apparently when you attack the stronghold you get some SM allies

#

Inter-Imperial Conflict is interesting

#

I wish we had more in-lore ones

late osprey
#

BIGDICKCHENEY 💪 🗣️

#

One of the IRL Heroes of 40k Media

opaque coyote
#

Also

Eliphias's voice in DoW 1 is my favorite. I wish he kept it

late osprey
#

He has recordings of every single possible cinematic/narrative moment in the Dawn of War series

opaque coyote
#

Also "Then I won't lie to you brother. You've been lied to enough"

#

Fire

#

I like the idea of the Chaos Space Marine faction being less

#

"KILL THE WORSHIPPERS"

late osprey
opaque coyote
#

And more thinking that they're genuinely misguided and wanting to convince them to join the Dark Gods

late osprey
#

Dark Crusade-era Eliphas goes down as one of the greats.

#

Dark Crusade Chaos altogether has some great lines

#

"IT IS A POOR SHEPHERD THAT BLAMES HIS FLOCK"

opaque coyote
#

Even though the dialogue is rather boring on the Necron part

#

Because

#

Pre-rework

#

A Chaos Space Marine being genuinely concerned that the enemies he fights are literally soulless are interesting

late osprey
#

NGL I think the Necron rewrite was actually good

#

Otherwise it's just metal tyranids

opaque coyote
#

But if you want to hear a hot take of mine

#

Let the Hive Mind be a character

late osprey
#

Honestly not a terrible idea

opaque coyote
#

Not the Tyranids, just the Hive Mind

late osprey
#

It's not like it'd make the Tyranids more boring

opaque coyote
#

Although maybe you could make something similar to the Reapers in Mass Effect

#

I have had the idea that the Tyranids go around to cleanse the galaxies as some sort of

Viral Immune System of a wider universe

#

Like the 40k Galaxy is awful

#

Why would you want the shit it has to spread?

#

Tbf it would ruin the mystery of the Tyranids

#

And honestly that's the only interesting thing

#

But I also think it's worth it to have at least a couple of interesting things in it

#

Beyond just

#

"BUGS"

#

"MORE BUGS"

#

"ERHM askhually they're closer to crustaceans"

#

"Shut up before I eat you."

opaque coyote
#

Is a thing

#

I'm thinking of maybe making the Hive Mind similar to that in role

#

It keeps the "terrifying horde of bugs"

#

But it also would be interesting if the gigantic vast alien intelligence

#

...

#

Was an intelligence

arctic talon
#

the nids have a niche rn they occupy perfectly

opaque coyote
#

True. Although you could argue that the Orks occupy it also

#

But there is enough room for two hordes of biological terrors

noble bear
#

why are the tyranids bugs instead of their namesake, are they stupid?

opaque coyote
digital glacier
#

DoW III voice acting is very underrated imho

#

Can't believe there are no videos compilated the voicelines of that game

opaque coyote
#

Tbf it's probably because DoW 3 is widely considered to be

#

What from I heard

#

Equivalent to Pacific Rim 2 in that it "doesn't exist"

crisp heath
#

Dow2 mods are the unofficial dow3

languid meadow

#

Doubly true for the specific Doctor the picture chose.

crisp heath
#

The guy before tenant wasn't that bad but that's when I kinda stopped watching

#

Tenant I heard wasn't bad either

raven stone
#

Christopher Eccleston’s time was too short, he was a good one too, yea

#

In fact many of his novels take place in the brief period he left Rose and then (to us observers) comes back several seconds later to pick her up again.

#

In the very first TV episode

sharp pollen
#

are cyber-mastiffs just dog servitors?

arctic talon
#

Depending on type some are lobotomized/have different things suppressed

raven stone
#

And I think GW just released actual robot dogs for the Palanite Enforcers as well

#

Well they are called Hardcase Cyber Mastiffs but they look full on robot. Maybe with dog wetware per Ad Mech dictates…

crisp heath
#

Guys bare with me what if you had a titan dog that moves on 4 legs KEKW_ogryn

#

Controlled by a knight or something KEKW_ogryn

golden imp
#

Has the imperium ever worked with the drukhari?

#

I know they’ve tricked the tau before, wondered if the imperium ever learned that lesson too

arctic talon
#

Willingly

golden imp
#

Huh

arctic talon
#

As in the imperium asked the drukhari

#

There was a plot by several of the high lords

#

To have a haemonculi take a look at the throne

golden imp
#

Wha

arctic talon
#

And come up with a solution to implement

#

The payment was several billion people

#

But the high lords agreed to it

#

How it went wrong is the Haemonculi was onboard with it until they overdosed on pain on terra

#

And came up with a new idea

#

They were gona steal a bit of flesh from the emperor and make their own emperor clone

golden imp
#

How did the custodes not immediately rip it apart

arctic talon
#

The fabricator general had access to the throneroom anyways

#

The original plan was to sneak the haemonculi in as a tech priest so he could take a look

#

Except the moment dude stepped on terra he overdosed from all the pain and suffering and went crazy

golden imp
#

Crazy

outer wave
#

Though funny

raven stone
#

And that was when others who are not in the plot just decided “nope not doing this again…for now.”

#

(Imperium side that is)

crisp heath
#

The drukhari had something to do w the creation of the golden throne iirc

languid meadow
#

pretty sure it's also revealed they're trying to make their own golden throne

crisp heath
#

Oops elite wolf allready covered that and it wasn't the creation my bad

arctic talon
sharp pollen
arctic talon
#

They seem to have fear response and some emotional stuff removed/restricted

#

But yes

#

Glaito in rogue trader can show affection and such

#

So it’s obviously not universal for cybermastiffs

languid meadow
#

I know auths dog prob has no emotions via their interaction with fatalist

queen laurel
#

Because he initiates this conversation

Male Authoritarian : “I noticed your Cyber Mastiff getting startled on our way here from the Valkyrie”
Male Fatalist : “You're seeing things. They don't have emotions”
Male Authoritarian: “Then perhaps some form of Altitude based Malfunction?”

#

The first thing he asked is your dog seems a bit startled there than fatalist tells him he's just seeing things and they don't feel things

#

Authoritarian is like very nice for an arbites

languid meadow
#

doesn't push my agenda

golden imp
#

I’ve heard some people say golden throne is necron tech, some say it’s eldar tech

#

I kinda lean more towards eldar though cause psyker

queen laurel
languid meadow
#

I refuse to play maul

golden imp
#

Apparently the necrons made a device that just unlocks psyker powers though so idk what there deal is lol

How are orphaned children selected to attend the schola progenium? Does the imperial government just send them there?

humble shoal
languid meadow
#

yeah but the selection for the schola is so inconsistent in lore, most ways kids get in is if their parents die in service.

humble shoal
#

dads a guard, moms a sister of battle

languid meadow

this plotline is never moving forward💔

opaque coyote
#

I wanna talk to him

young pecan
#

Or is it just putting pre-existing text stuff and/or fluff into cutscenes

languid meadow
#

it just took what we knew (Brunt going into the underhive for a mission) into a cutscene iirc

young pecan
#

Hate that when I looked up the campaign cutscene compilation, it was for an Arbites character

#

Even though the arbites

#

Literally have less story content

#

And it says this

The campaign is mainly for the reject character though...

Yeah but I am sure there is always a level of it still behind

#

Like I can't see an ogryn willingly going into something like a vent

queen laurel
#

what evolutionary advantage do you get by being naturally scared of tight spaces

#

So I'm glad most people that make ogryns ignore it

late osprey
#

it doesnt inherently go for what is the most optimal

#

its more like a shaped plinko machine

#

a creature could definitely evolve claustrophobia if its origins were a mutation that allowed ancestors to, say, avoid stumbling into caves and getting eaten by cave-predators

queen laurel
#

is afraid of tight spaces>

late osprey
#

do NOT look up how elephants react to small critters

queen laurel
#

like i can understand them being simple

#

Because they have reverted back to more primitive ways of living because of the way they evolved that I can pass

late osprey
#

instincts still exist even in humans

queen laurel
#

But claustrophobia?

#

as a species trait

late osprey
#

it's really not outrageous at all

queen laurel

That's just silly

like if you remove that people will treat ogryns the same way

Yeah, I knew a few friends who just straight up retired after a few years because it was all super speed after a point.

Gameplay was changed, armor gear practically cosmetics nowadays don't do anything etc. Everything is super fast nowadays.

late osprey
#

I just don't like all of the ridiculous classes.

dire loom
late osprey
#

And Warden 2 essentially was the ultimate "F you they will keep getting more ridiculous"

digital glacier
late osprey
#

Frankly, not a single class addition was good even up to the Centurion class IMO, but it was all playable until Warden 2

#

Except Black Prior, that one was okay.

#

The Chinese classes weren't that bad either.

#

But that's still a low batting average.

dire loom
# digital glacier They're all a bit like that tbh

As a Maul, I personally like the lore accurate stuff in-game. I'm not a lore expert by any means, but if a Space Marine started holding hands with a Tyranid.. I'd question it. Lol

It's probably why I picked some VOs for certain things.

Such as a Veteran Loose Cannon, for that true conscript experience. For extra immersion. The rejects reject. Yah get me? Now it's all full circle. I have 2 characters on opposite spectrums of the Lex. Ogryn for comedy relief. I haven't played my Zealot or Pysker in eons.. lol I just don't like their play styles personally or builds. Not my jam. Funny because I like Sith Lord stuff.

Plus it added more to the immersion, if everyone was wholesome and nice or just better or decent or trying to be friendly.. it becomes uncanny valley given the context. I can only imagine certain characters being tolerant or friendly with each other, like if they have similar goals or origins etc.

#

It's all about the vibes.

digital glacier
#

I approve your view on things

#

Sometimes rejects can be a bit too chummy for one an other but I don't mind that much

#

After all 40K exists to make people laugh

dire loom
queen laurel

makes them seem relatively more human

#

and in this setting that is a pretty high praise

Yeah, I'm glad y'all agree with me. Lol

I miss OG Guardsman from Dawn of War. It's literally all those 3 VOs put together.

I also recommend Dawn of War if y'all haven't played it yet.

Never heard of it

Just humanizes the characters makes em more grounded or relatable or more believable etc.

Getting a remaster or something on PC steam soon.

Can you play tyranids in it?

Has lots of mods

Lots of factions to choose from

queen laurel
dire loom
# late osprey Can you play tyranids in it?

Probably, I can't remember. I played the Imperial Guard, and I remember fighting Orks, Tau, Eldar, Necrons, Chaos. It has Space Marines and Sisters of Battle, but there's probably mods for it by now.

queen laurel
#

The first dawn of war does not have them

#

same with its expansions

late osprey
#

Well, as long as I can field Rubric Marines

dire loom
#

Oh that's right, I got confused. It's been awhile.

#

Good game though if you like RTS.

late osprey
#

Yeah, been looking for an RTS where I can field armies of Dire Avengers for a while.

dire loom
#

Dawn of War 3 bad IMHO, skip that one. 1 and 2 are good.

#

Yeah, since I'm on PlayStation 5 nowadays.. Owlcat is my only hope for strategy Warhammer 40k games, but in terms of good RTS for console I'm cooked unless they port Dawn of War, Star Craft, Command and Conquer etcetera to PlayStation 5. Lol

crisp heath
#

Dow1 and 2 have some great mods aswell

green loom
#

Also I'd play 3 for the sake of playing it

#

Will prolly buy it next sale

hexed trail
#

So there is hope in there for a good 40k RTS

queen laurel

because the current total war engine ain't gonna hold up

As I feel 40k for sure needs space navel combat

hexed trail
hexed trail
#

So a month to go

tough haven
#

Are they adding anything?

#

Cause tbh, if not I might just stick with unification

hexed trail
#

I think it's just some upscaled textures, new audio and the ability to run on current systems without issues

#

It is just a remaster not a remake

tough haven
#

They aren’t gonna refresh models or lore? Cause the necron stuff is pre refresh

hexed trail
#

I don't think so

#

For that to happen they kinda need to reboot the series

#

Which they should

tough haven
#

Guess I’m sticking with unification then

digital glacier
#

Unification dev said they'd be developping for the remake remaster actually

hexed trail
#

Sorry for being pedantic

digital glacier
#

No problem

green loom
#

It'll make the game much more playable probably

#

Moreover

#

It'll be a god send for modding

hexed trail
#

Just don't want people getting their hopes up too much

hexed trail
green loom
#

I'm told it's mostly the jump up to 64 bit

#

That'll enable a lot

hexed trail
#

Oh man didn't realise DOW was 32 bit

green loom
#

It's like 20 years old lol

hexed trail
#

Actually now that I think about it makes sense

digital glacier
#

Wdym? Didn't you know how old it was?

hexed trail
#

I knew it was old but I thought it would have had 64bit update already

#

Anyways I got like the entirety of DOW 1 for free because I picked it during a giveaway and then they updated it and the update just made the whole DOW 1 set of games available

#

Like the update happened end of last year

#

That is another reason I thought it might have been 64bit

sly ivy
#

Not this total war 40k shit again

#

If they actually do manage to pull this off then they are probably planning to expand total war to other modern/future conflict settings

The first thing he does is try and climb a wall, roll a 100, and get sent to the hospital

We were in bosnia circa 1912, as a result of the campaign my nephew ||Gavrilo was filled with rage against Austria|| on account of ||the country being run by immortal demon worshippers||

He was a recurring character but i had a different last name (i occasionally mentioned he was my sisters son) and i only ever called him "Little Gav"

When its 'fully' metal then the machine spirit aspect can also play a role. Though quite a few 'full-metal' cyber mastiffs have organic brains and nerve stems.

And so, can act a lot like normal dogs, when not actively engaged in duty.

While Dredd is also brutal, I think the guy is nicer than the Punisher.

#

It's hard to compare the two IMO because their settings are totally different. The Punisher is living in, essentially, our world, while Judge Dredd's world is actually deranged lunatic land.

dapper gyro
#

The point of Dredd is that justice is served to the word. Is it the one of exercising the law at fault, or is it the law of the society.

That doesn't justify the Judge system, but Dredd isn't dealing with normal criminality
