yes
Dilara is evil, is why
Idk about yall but I love inquisitor power armors
human power armor is cool
does a creature have a name?
Hamadrya
Inquisitors have the most drip, it is true. I'm very partial to this set
Always imagined Huron's creature kinda looking like
likewise witchfinder
how you been mate
Good
@opaque coyote I finally did the thing.
And damn, Arbites class is cooking…
Haven’t even got the level up too high and weapons feel like smooth overkill…
If I had unchecked authority over multiple star systems you better believe I would spend frightening amounts of resources for the sole purpose of increasing my drip
Guardsman with power armour when?
no
The Arkan Confederates (also erroneously spelled "Arkhan", see note) are the Imperial Guard Regiments hailing from the world of Providence. Known actions include fighting in their planet's civil war[1c], as well as battling the T'au Empire and their rebellious Human allies on the world of Phaedra.[1b]
Peak drip
Always wondered why we haven't gotten more units with human PA
I think only
rare
Inquistors and Sisters of Battle got them
admech uses most of it
And a lot of admech
But even then it is relatively rare
Since most who go into combat don't need it cause they already replaced their body with armor or are cannonfodder
And others just don't go into combat
So it's only for the weird inbetweens
Do we know what happened to the gray knight who was captured and tortured? Or it just ended after being send to some chaos god
Alright I’m bored drop the most obscure official lore you know
A Slaaneshi cult decided to make pronouns for the Prince of Darkness.
This is old lore btw
PFFFFHAHAHAHA
Not really obscure I guess but the super flat world is hilarious
Idk it's more the fact that Shem reminds me of a comic series called Blue Chair
And now I can't stop thinking of Slaanesh as this mf (who is named... Shen)
I recognize the character
Never knew what it was from
Its just someone's OC for a comic he makes on twitter
Listen anyone that does writing has a self insert character…
Also
The Tau words for bird (y’eld), spider (mal'caor) and strong (orrus) are also the names of the ‘unusual’ technology used by Spyrers in necromunda.
Was about to comment on malcador
What a shame, based of US Confederate... Losers.
Yeah some of the tech used is T'au tech
Heresy
Although tbf Tech Heresy is everywhere.
There's a reason why there's memes for the Mechanicus going down the Necron Pipeline

(Tau gauss guns are super cool and I wanna give them to my guardsmen)
Wait no
It’s the necrons with gauss
Which tbf...
There's a lot of gay overtones in Necron stuff
I think one Necron warlord is trans
Pulse guns
Or railguns
Does that happen to be the same one that was a farmer accidentally placed in a warlord body
It is called gauss, but it has nothing to do with the gauss magnetic mechanic...
Also the Necron Gauss guns... Aren't Gauss guns
That would be where I got them mixed up
That's just the Imperium trying to compare it to something
Y'know the phrase that sufficiently advanced technology might as well be magic
...
The Necrons are that
They are one of the two races that don't use warp based FTL
Or GW being dumb and refuses to correct it.
The other ones are the Tyranids
Or a mistranslation (cop out)
Fuck yeah
Honestly like the idea that it's basically the Imperium just labeling it as something they can understand
Necrons in canon call it gauss though
GW is from UK... What kind of language do they need to translate to English? Saxon?
Since otherwise it implies that the Necrons are way more advanced than even mankind's prime. Can't have that.
Tyranids are also cool
I wonder why plague marines don’t… Do more to fight them, seeing as they’re about the only things that CAN and would be motivated to
Too busy doing their own shit
Chaos is not cohesive
Because
Y'know
Chaos
Their greatest strength and weakness
I mean immortality kinda means you’ve already won it’s just a matter of when
Oh yeah also this isn't obscure.
But even after turning to Chaos... CSMs still hate Xenos
They just
Can't get over their racism for 0.01 seconds
Nurgle doesn't have numbers vs Tyranids.
Which I find really funny
"I won't ever work with a filthy alien."
"But you... Sold your soul to the God of Violence"
"And?"

Nurgle already has hard time with orks.
The only indoctrination so thick not even chaos can rip it out of them
Have any imperials tried to
Leave
Like the galaxy itself seems like the main thing between humanity and survival at this point

Distance between galaxy is too far.
Generally no
The problem is that the warp is the main form of travel.
Now try traveling
In space hell
To other galaxies
If a pathway even exists
Only the Silent King did it, and wasn't successful.
The Astronomicon basically acts as a lighthouse
Going far away from that generally sucks for navigation
Also the Tyranids but the Tyranids might be the apex predators of the entire universe
He also was like "guys we need to kill the Nids like RIGHT FUCKING NOW"
Which implies that he uh
Seen some shit

Maybe or maybe not.
It's the mystery.
But they've definitely at least eaten other galaxies beforehand
Also, Necron used hyper space/webway to travel instead of the warp, yet, still not enough fuel to get to the next galaxy.
Doesn't help that half of them are uhh
Well not even half
Approx. 90% of them are either still napping
Or got their sleeping place destroyed with the passage of time
Really puts into perspective how bad nurgle’s creations are
To be capable of killing space-bugs by having them sniff the shit they make
Tbf it takes much more than that
But yeah
And Nurgle still hasn't shared his
Top 10 creations
His masterpieces

Well, even in the milky way, there are shit that not even the nids or chaos dare to touch.
Well yeah he’s still learning how to edit the video for his YouTube channel
Asmongold
Ghoul star regions for example
Those places make even chaos princes went mad and tyranids went feral.
The hell is a ghoul star
Ghoul star system is a system in the galaxy that, from whatI recall, doesn't house any living life that we would recognize (necrons, tyranids, etc)
Its a very dead region and yet nothing goes near it
The Ghoul Stars, also known as the Ghost Stars,[6] are a desolate region of space[1] located in the extreme northeast of the galaxy. They consist of worlds lit by the cold rays of dying suns.[4]
Actually, I think a necron kingdom is there, but its a flayer kingdom
Flayers are insane right?
Yep
Don’t know much about them, only recently heard people talking about them because some CC made a short featuring them
They're necrons that got infected by the Flayer virus after the defeat of one C'tan
As necrons that are infected, they're treated as those with leprosy back in ancient times within necron society
A h
They are useful shock troops though so no reason not to use them if they wanna help out
But otherwise, its very much a "10 ft pole" kinda relationship
What’s the highest ranking flayed? If there’s a whole kingdom of them I’m sure some leaders were infected
Flayer Kings are Necron Lords who have suffered less from the ravages of the curse of the Flayer Virus, a curse sent in retribution by a C'tan known as Llandu'gor the Flayer, with their personalities largely intact. The Flayed Ones, as debased and feral creatures, will gravitiate towards the mightiest of their kind. When in proximity with one an...
Flayer Kings
Ooooo
Sadly no real support for a Flayer themed army atm
Quick! Release another Cadian set!
The more I learn about 40k lore the more I hate that only a few parts of it gets a lot of attention
Yeah you get used to seeing that alot
There's an image GW put out of minor races in the galaxy, and all of them are super cool looking and unique
None of them have lore or models
It would be so fun to have a faction that’s just miscellaneous minor races
That's Tau funnily enough lmao
Okay but how many tau players actually use that
No clue, dont play the tabletop lmao
More minors!
…Wait no-

All the minor races I’ve heard of were super cool in concept
Know of any?
In some amount of detail
Kroot, vespids, all the other tau races
There's giant psychic bears, a bug like race known as the Vespids, Kroot, uhhhh there's a few more but I dunno them
Look up the rak’gol
There's the Enslavers
Those too
I can't remember their names, but there's the ugly worm-like people?
The Thyrrus?
Nah probably not them
I only remember them because they are more war crimey than the Imperium
Their entire society literally revolves around war crimes and doing vast "performances"
AKA more war crimes
Gotta say the idea is very entertaining
Basically
They make tactical decisions based on spectacle, flash and aiming to inflict the heaviest casualties on both sides
I’ve heard of “Vore” creatures
With no concern on what is tactically sensible
Which I find funny
The Orks would also love them
TLDR; "Do it for the bit" but as a race.
Sounds
Awesome
Where exactly are minor races found anyway
I never see anything other than the imperium pointed out on galaxy maps
I assume anywhere tbh
hrud. Also still active and they have good rifle , I guess?
I see
Those vampire things in the galactic north are pretty cool. Also around the ghoul stars iirc? They have a small empire
I want
The rifle
I would make a lifesize model if I had the time
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Khrave these guys would make a cool pseado minor faction
The Khrave, also known as Khrave Marauders are a xenos-race of mind-eaters.[1]
they or mind control or something iirc
Vampires
big list https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/List_of_sentient_species had no idea tau had so many
This is a list of sapient species known to exist (or have existed) within the galaxy and beyond. The title is due to widespread confusion about the definition of "sentient", which is able to perceive or feel (almost all life is sentient, because it must be able to perceive in order to operate its metabolism, which is part of the definition of l...
tau has that freaktide
damn tau has crab ppl
lots of invertebrates, too. (insert spineless joke here)
Tau always did seem like they’d live by oceans
Wish that part of the tau would be focused on more really
But uh, cooperation between species without ulterior motives isn’t warhammer enough
Better throw in a “Not genocide wink”
They also gotta make it feel different than the halo covanent. Wish they'd fun a Fire Warrior 2 game w/ all the weird stuff
Part of the covenant was the overwhelming force
Actually the covenant is the imperium but less racist
And that says a lot given how anything smaller than an elite was treated
But yeah
Minor races under tau banner
More of that
Tbf the T'au got that down
Any auxiliary race is basically a second class citizen at best (either that or mercs)
But better than being fucking murdered

But yeah generally I wish there was more variety.
Mechas are cool but I'd love some flavoring to them

we don't really know how they treat a lot of their auxilary, I assume? Like most of those 20+ on the list 'just exist' and don't have more than a few paragraphs at best.
Basically
Although there does exist an alien species about as big as a knight
Wbich
...
Come on that just sounds cool
Yeah show us more of THAT
I think they're called the Vorgh?
Yhp
Unfortunately they got like a paragraph
💀
GW moment
gah
So many cool ideas
So little attention
This freak is probably the most fleshed out "background race" of the tau. Like they have not just more than 2 sentances, but 3 whole paragraphs AND a picture. lol https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Galg
Galgs (Admuninus Sextus)[2] are a strange alien race.[2]
I get 'star wars fluff race' vibes from them and I'm ok with that. 40k need more of that to make the galaxy feel bigger
freaktide
No.
MORE SPACE MARINE SUCCESSORS!
I meeeaaaan…
Must give good hugs at the very least…
Not saying I double checked the rules but… Y’know…
Jokes aside, the added races in the T'au definitely need more of a spotlight. That is obvious
No, actually we need Titus fighting and being in camera view of more legally distinct GW products.
I can settle for Titus being camera view for something else if you know what I m-
Hey what are you doing with that Purity Seal and Thunder Hammer? Wait NONON-
yellow names, destroy them now.
KHRAVE
bro
khrave are evil fuckin creatures
and yeah, mind vampires basically
older than the eldar, took corax and a sizeable amount of his boys to deal with a small force of them

What are people even expecting from a genestealer cult
In DT
I heavily doubt we'll be dealing with literal actual genestealers except as potential minibosses
yeah
bruh this thing is foul
People gonna be mad if a genestealer cult shows up and isn't basically literally a 'nid invasion but that's not happening on atoma rn
IF they do get added i expect mostly the very human ones with the aberrations/purestrains being monstrosities/assassination bosses
Literally anything other than the same cultists we've been fighting for years
traitor gaurd and actual cultists that aren't tied to space marines finally get a spotlight
I'd rather like...hereteks/dark mechanicum/whoever is maintaining cultist technology show up
Even if in a limited capacity
Basically acting as a new faction, some alongside the current ones other as fully separated ones
Some are annoyed that it's the 2nd (3rd even according to some) game FS made against Nurgle
Nurgle is very easy to implement and is basically the best for this kind of game
Space marines can more feasibly handle more things
orks nids nurgle, the 3 forces most suited to a horde shooter
You don't have to worry about the actual feasibility of fighting like
Tzangors en masse
Im glad we got rubricae in SM2 but like
Ppl hate them mfs
arent rubric marines well above the combat capabilities of most normal space marines?
Depends on who's writing 
true
The main thing is they are functionally immortal
If its mortal cult any of the Chaos Gods could work imo
nurgle has zombies
I cant help but think that a khornate cult would be endless rager variations
so just easiest to make a horde shooter due to that
Depend on the type of cult
nah the video games only focus on the zombies
Blood pact for example would be very much like the Scabs
yeah they would
Poxwalker/Groaner equivalent are writable.
As they would still be needed
GSC -> Kissed (human/civilians infected by the GS kiss)
Khorne -> Civilians that have been mostly drained for blood and are maddened
Tzeentch -> Civilians being puppets for the Sorcerer
Slaanesh -> Drugged up Civilians
People want to kill things that look different 🤷
This feels like someone going to left 4 dead and being like
"Man"
"Whats with all these zombies"
L4D has some map specific enemy look (Clown on the Carnival)
I'm sure people will get their beastman equivalent to hate eventually
I don't think we will see something akin to BM in the sense of new Skeleton.
Just reskins of current cast
ngl the trappers already have all of my BM hate
literally just more annoying packmasters
Hook rat except they can keep you disabled after they fuckin' die 💀
yup
At least these dont drag you too far I guess
I do find it interesting that we got the VT chaos enemies so early (savages, chaos knights, maulers) and it makes me wonder what else they could add to the enemy pool atm
For elites ? Shielded human, breakable preferably
Like held shields right?
Enemies would be too similar, cuz it's hard to imagine sniper khornate for example
There are some in blood pact (or at least they get specifically mentioned)
Yes, Bruisers with shields and stuff
Kinda like the Marauders in Vt2
To let my L4D nerdism speak for a moment those are Uncommon Infected, they are just sometimes there in very low number among hordes to shake things up. Its the equilavent of the Moebian 21st poxwalkers as an example
If they were to make new factions imo they should be "Local group turned to Chaos".
Khorne getting Enforcers, so instead of having Snipers they get some Concussion Carbine stuff but those Spawn more often than Scab Snipers.
(And also Dreg haven't got a Sniper either)
Noble Slaanesh cult!!!
Noble would be a strange origin for a "tide", as noble are smaller groups in theory
Imo
They have servants
wtf
Not the people who made the game, clickbait article and this has been known to happen for like a year
Embracer embracer....
That dude company who's been buying game companies and doing shit with em?
that was before they damn near went bankrupt yeah
basically they hovered up too much to fast during COVID
Damn I was about to laugh
To be honest, still using a Russian dev for game is kind of a security risk.
Considering how tight the Russian government is to game companies when they don't follow the government guidelines.
Disclaimer: I'm not anti Russian, I'm anti Kremlin.
yeah every sane person is now a days
You then suddenly see a surge of insane people...
oh sane people have always been rare
im sure this story has inflamed the SM2 iscord/forums
largely due to the rumor they are ending major content for 2 to shift over to 3
ok servitors with puffy hats and sleaves
there goes space marine 3
nah
no, a guy with the most edgy discord profile in the internet, they just relocated to armenia
lmao I didn't even see this post
my profile is romantic, not edgy, get it right
i may be cringe, but you're mean and that's worse
It’s so over pretty sure Armenia doesn’t have electricity
Or the wheel
they now have the studio responsible for the classic hit Space Marine 2
Usually they relocate to Cyprus
many things irritate me lately, i have no chill
I'm not shocked bruh, this heatwave makes cold pretty scarce
its cheaper than Kiprus
(thats what i hear)
Kipr?
how to spell it
Cyprus
english if fucking dumb
siproos
Oh shit thats how you guys say it?
We say Kıbrıs here lol
I remember hearing it english and I was like "Who? Cyprus? Where? What?"
Scout Sergeant Cyrus that's who
We say " Kipr"
Kibris, holy shit
Butchering the name left and right
Big brain stuff, language
I've often wondered why it's "Zypern" in German, it sounds like some zoomer slang
In Irish it's Chipir
I call it "youtube clickbait factory island"
In Cantonese I think it is “Choi-Po-Lo-See”
In Mandarin it’s “Chai-Pu-Lu-Shi”
(Might as well share since it happens to be on topic lol)
Who would the God Emperor have voted for in the 2007 French elections?
Trick question, the Emperor would never vote. He'd utilise the Foreign Legion to instigate a coup.
…
Je m’apelle Alpharius.
Ich heisse Alpharius.
Wo Shi Ah Lu Fa Lai Shi.
Ngo Hai Ah Lo Fat Loi Sai.
Watashi No Ah-Ru Fa Ri-Usu.
(YES, that is “I am Alpharius” in French, German, Mandarin pronunciation, Cantonese pronunciation, and Japanese pronunciation. For when you are playing Alpha Legion and want to troll your opponent even moreso than usual.)
Watashi No Ah-Ru Fa Ri-Usu, Omae Wa mou Shinderu
AAAAAUGHH STOP IT
Is alfaí mé (Irish)
It seems I accidentally trolled you instead 😅
Eg eiti Alfarius
Klingon next
A lot of barking like a dog innit
Innit bruv
we speakin in tongues
Anyone know where I can find all of the Mechanicus dialogue slides without replaying the whole game? Trying to write a big bickering conclave of tech priests trying to decide how to handle a necron threat with inspirations from scaevola and the like since there are radical tech priests present
You could search YouTube for the game's cutscene compilation
Many creators just upload them cutscenes
Well that’s the thing
There’s like 4 cutscenes in the game
Intro, and 3 endings
...ah
All the dialogue is done through text interspersed throughout each missions
You are gonna get nothing through cutscenes.
just watch walkthroughs and look at the text
I really doubt anyone has compiled all the texts from the game lol
Question, is there commentary
If there is I’m out
No commentary, going by a comment thanking them doing a silent let’s play
Sweet
why does commentary matter
just mute the video, its not voiced aside from robotic sounds

Some people find extra commentary noisy and, to be fair, some commentators are extra obnoxious
Quality varies massively
There is a guy who does a XCom2 WOTC Legendary Ironman commentary run, but he is calm and blessed with a naturally smooth and quiet voice. That, alongside him actually using his brain to play the game, makes me like the commentary in that case.
he's streaming that right? and he's italian or something like that
and his game is modded i think
for more difficulty
Sounds very European at least. Let me see if I can dig the link up…not sure if he streams though, but definitely on YouTube.
ah, dunno about yt, ive seen mine on twitch
This guy
A smooth voice with actual brains to beat Ironman Legendary. Something that makes me like it.
definitely not him, sorry
Np, all good. I mean, good commentators are rare but there definitely can be more than one XD
God they butchered sisters of silence and custodes in heresy lol
Congrats to sisters of silence for having less units in 30k then 40k
💀
how
how is that even
possible
Is it their plan to separate all lines?
@storm jungle sorry for the ping, but want to ask again about the ogryns - they are actually everywhere, and their planets are not rare, and females are also there and everywhere, but just not represented, right?
Yes
Lorewise Ogryn females are everywhere where the males are
But never had official arts of them
why are you so confident in this? and why am i so confident in me?
"lorewise"
lorewhere
Are you confident in yourself?
i just heard my things in some lore yt video
Compared to Primaris aren't they ?
Yeah but they are like “oh yeah ppl love the classic retro style of GKs”
Primaris vs firstborn I guess
“Classic space marines”

No because custodes/SoS are still using the same units, aside from Krole and the SoS transport.
SoS just have a single unit option with dif loadouts rather then the 3 loadouts
They really expect me to take them seriously with a name like Dozen Cousins.
Half-Dozen, Even!
4 sheets in total lol
they have 6 in 40k rn
Oh also Krole sucks now
they nerfed her into oblivion
update next edition 
They're sure as shit not getting anything this one
Tbh
I'm betting Drukhari and GK are gona get early codexes next edition
So they get their refreshes out of the way
but yeah Krole lost the ability to instantly kill stuff lol
So she's awful now
she got an extra wound though, ig
What thing ?
Compared to every other army but Dark Eldar yeah lol
They're all from 5e
except crowe and voldus lol
Basically everything cacti said
the fact that you got all your info from a lore video says a lot i think
No
Their mum told them they’re perfect just as they are
(Their mum is Malcador)
Malcador more like grumpy granny though
Grey knights are either getting binned into agents or refreshed
Binned into agents would be so based
It’s going to be a refresh
Bcs they got their own codex
Imo
Also after the clusterfuck that was deathwatch in agents
I think GW doesn’t want to try again
Ya sadjly ur prob right
I just want daemonhunters bak
Want ordo malleus to be part of the army proper
You make me proud Cacti 🫡
wtf don’t i make u proud
well that was a very long time ago, and sounded very solid to be honest
especially cause ogryns are not represented
I mean no it doesnt
why the fuck would ogryn populations be endangered
theres no lore saying they got breeding issues
but i was listening to it at the moment when all my lore knowledge was built around DoW 1
🙂
and maybe space marine 1
show me a documentary that demonstrates it then i will believe you
NOW
Well, hahaha, I can't exactly show you my sources here BUT if you look up "Ogre sex" on YouTube, you'll find it for sure
No
im pretty sure it will show me "shrek fucks ellis" video
Exactly
...Burster!
Rip Sisters of silence in heresy. You will be remembered lol
omg but the fandom cared about them so much!!!
(they didnt)
lol
kek
inevitable
Yea this is either a placeholder
Or a full downgrade
Unless you are crazy enough to take 50% allies in full
And 25% Lord of War
From other lists
again people whined so much about how they care about the SoS
and the moment the femtodes debacle dies down they drop them like a sack of potatoes lol
truly caring fanbase
The fans
-complain about GW adding females to a faction
-refuse to appreciate the existing ones
I know one person who plays SoS in heresy
they
are prolly really sad
aside from that 💀
LOL
Literally like
reminder
the SoS were SO forgotten IRL
that this gotten added to their actual lore
where the actual Imperium branches abandoned them

but yeah he's probably sad about his sisters getting their fucking kneecaps cut off
lol
I actually have listened and bought a few SoB black library audio shortstories
I was not impressed
One had voicework so bad i could have done it better
My ears were bleeding after that one
Nvm. Misstyped. Not SoS. SoB. But they have the same problem as all the female only factions, as explained above by other people
Honestly they are so much of a background prop faction
it's not even funny
Is it just me, or is the way that battle speech is portrayed detrimental to how readable the dialogue is?
Because i read a sister of silence excerpt once where it was just the sisters inner monologue, at that shit was well written, about a few pages further there was a battle scene in which they used their sign language and the way that was described/portrayed just weirded me out
Am i alone in this or is this something relatable?
the LEX there is insane i want there
🫡
POV: The ogryn said he could juggle 6 heretics at once and wants to show it off
Dilara plz

with authoritarian voice "HA-HA"
i just learned that lasguns recoil is fake, cause of autoguns true recoil - to not teach recruits shooting guns with and without recoil
true? of fake?
Did you have a stroke writing this
nm, the guy who said this, also said that he learned that from a million lore yt videos
should have guessed
sorry for 2 pings
and for a naked ogryn
it depends™ but generally lasguns are depicted as having 0 recoil
not in darktide cinematics tho 
shooters there fight for their lives while shooting with them 
Oh no it only recoils there because they're scared and trembling 
yeah well it looks cool
same reason our guns recoil ingame
gamers like recoil

I am the favourite child 
No recoil but violent vibration.
Otherwise, why multilas/lascannon even have spread.
Yeah the damn things do vibrate lol
It is the reason that the SoB is not allowed to use big lasguns.
if you believe that lasguns dont have recoil then you probably eat plain chips and you tell children that santa isnt real
they have recoil and no recoil as the media on point demands it
its like GW insisting lasguns have yellow bolts then cherrypicking artwork where they got it as if it can prove a point lol
they're so much cooler with recoil
A gun with no recoil is boring yeah
otherwise i only imagine those movies where the gun effects are all digital so the actor clearly is faking the gun shaking
One I hate the most is like
"It has rumblers inside the gun to simulate recoil"
like...
Do you think this is the U.S army or some futuristic shooter setting or something?

yeah its like some shit the U.S military would do
not a fucking backwards space empire
lmao
it implies the guardsman feeligns even matter
add more mechanical parts so it's less easy to use 
LITERALLY
thats the sort of shit you'd do for like
training someone to use firearms in the future
lmao
as a side note, in kingmaker there is a moment where rathe shoots a mounted multilas's power pack and it sends "las energy" everywhere, killing the crew
yes i will be talking about kingmaker for the rest of the month
Even SM2 long las has huge "vibration".
so this to me confirms that lasguns dont shoot actual lasers
it will
🗣️ 
but it supports my headcannon so i will ignore the others
also the book is very coy about automated knight suits
i wont spoil anything but they're in there
For Drukhari he's only one career change away from having them
is there actual lore of dark era knight suits being sentient
and the thing that really fucks with me is how knight suits are meant to be colonial tools/weapons but why are they not present outside knight worlds?
if every human colony was meant to have knight suits then what happened to them
"The original Knight Worlds were founded during the Dark Age of Technology, settled by Humanity in its first great stellar exodus. In an event dubbed the Long March, over the course of decades colonization ships reached their pre-chosen worlds."
per lexicanum
this is the reference
Its explained but like its very much convoluted
its all in the codexes and other shit
yeah this is support in kingmaker too. jester comes directly from earth
so if we go by the theory that they were used during the first era of interstellar colonization, that would mean they fell out of favor later in the dark age
i guess thats why more advanced worlds dont have them
i love the scene with the assassin
|| if you don't help me right now I swear to God I will drop a grenade in this cockpit ||
Peakmaker
maybe as time went on, humanity didnt need knight suits to do manual labor and war
knight suits required human pilots as far as we know, with sparse data that shows they might have even acted semi autonomously
therefore what if knights were what humans used before they started using AI robots
or perhaps it was an era before STC's were perfected since knights dont appear on other worlds. if STC's were used after knights fell out of favor then that would explain why the information to produce them was not considered important enough to record into new STC's
hows my yapping so far from a scale of 1 to luetin
ya its fine haha
It's like comparing a bacteria to godzilla
You are not beating that guy
When it comes to yapping
truly the king of yap
He has a video about 10 ork guns
That last for 1 hour
some ppl upload likee a half hour speculative lore vid and then king leutin busts in with a 2 hr vid
How do you make a video 1 hour long about 10 fictional guns
i love how even the top comments make fun of this
heres the lore, source: it came to me in a dream
i miss when his yapping was extra flavor to the stories instead of wild tangents that go nowhere
He can beat Luetin in this server, considering that guy only said like one thing years ago
He's comparing the general yapping not just in this server
You are not beating that
are you calling me a yapper
Yeah but like that's nothing it's like me saying
You can beat him in an alley because you can ambush him but in a real fight he could break your legs with muay thai and then shatter your skull with a brick
Of course you're going to be the guy on an ambush you got him on an ambush
But on a fair even fight you're going to lose
Hey, we in the Darktide server take any kind of victory
he's a tanker he doesnt have lower body strength
i can win the alley fight
wait no wrong person
what even are you berk
i mix you up with larmoth and emmesh
It's your pfp mate what is it
it's 100% the pfp
Thought my way of talking and what I talk about would make me a bit more standout
Maybe I should do a change on that
Not your degenerate yapping style your pfp
How's the change?
How DARE you.....
It looks like a black and white insect
I'd use that last commish from a friend but Im also on a school server with people I see IRL and will see IRL, and I'd rather not be too weeby
don't be afraid
see i recognize wolf from the red and blue
i dont even need to know what his pfp is
COWARD
You just look at the pfp
And not read their names
I cant believe I was just pressured by my good friends.....
Oh It's this one
im sorry but if the name has too many non vowels im not reading
That's like not that bad
Yeah its a good one
when you said weeby I thought it was gona be something weird
wolf has the most readable name in here
No Im mostly past the ahegao phase
And I got enough common sense not to just use it like that
And my respect lowered by just a tiny bit more
YOU READ IM MOSTLY PAST THAT
mostly
Then delete them that's like saying i don't smoke but i do have these packs of cigarettes
You don't need that man
Actually looks like its just the one
ok that's too far bulgur. one does not delete commissions
Why the heck is is she holding a gun
Shes from Girls Frontline
is that astolfo
A9-A1 IIRC
according to you!!!
It was in the wrong server but sure

GAMESWOKESHOP HAVE GONE TOO FAR
Legal logo™
(i really dont like this logo)
It just looks boring
Its for their legal team iirc
Looks like something i would make to immediately pass on a hurry
Not offensive but like
and like internal documents
Okay
that's not even a logo it's just words
Dude my face would look better than that even if it's beaten by a brick
Did they have any issues using the iconic gold word logo
maybe they're trying to standardize the logo so it looks more like the warhammer one
Really hope this is just for the legal team because i do not want them to get rid of the classic games workshop logo
^
I do wonder if its a readability reason?
But its not like GW's logo isnt illegible
Unfortunately you just know people will not think this and will go bananas
Do you think some rich noble somewhere has poked a power sword while it was lit
i genuinely thought that warhammer as a whole was always meant to show that it's directly from the late 80's
with the logo and everything
since they would have changed the GW logo long ago due to how outdated it is
It is exclusively for coporate stuff
according to the documents when they filed it lol
What are the lore implications of a bullpupped boltgun
none
if it exists it's because it looks cool
check out elysian weaponry
they have a bullpup heavy bolter
Oooo
I do wanna say recon lasguns are my favorite Darktide weapons aesthetically
Don’t super like how they feel to use
Does barrel length matter on a las weapon?
yes since long las have longer barrels and las carbines have shorter ones
they're taken from elysians. everything they have is bullpup
A culture with taste I see
take a new cursed destiny bullpup
Why do they call it bullpup, when the name for an infant Bull is a calf?
idk
They ain't pups
I think they don't like calling guns calfs is why
It should be a Bullcalf rifle
I find it funny and ironic how if you successfully defeated chaos forces, as a normal human soldier, there is a chance the Inquisition send Grey Knights to purge your ass.
You literally can't win in the Imperium 😂
the grey knights only purge humans that witnessed them
the Inquisition's way of purges are way more diverse
💀
Execution, concentration camps, sterilization, penal legiments, OH BOY

Haven't grey knights toned down the whole "purge anyone who's seen us" thing
it depends on how bad it is
but they still do it
Lmfao
cant believe james would do this 😔
That’s just a fucking Paris frigate from halo
CMON BUNGIE
I actually have a halo version of those big vehicle cross section books
And it’s so HUGE for no reason
yeah they're built around a giant railgun lol
there's a ship in the background of one of infinite's MP maps where its built around a giant laser gun
That would explain the ship designs. Makes sense.

Motherfuckers trying to rally the people they were actively exterminating, you cant make this shit up
I do think its interesting that some of the tech priests tried to resist the mindwiping
before you know
they ate a fucking bolt to the face
no like
I'm surprised the tech priests resisted to protect their subordinates from the mindwipe lol
they knew some important internet leaks
LOL
🫡
my lgs, which litearlly never does epsical sales
is putting all the new hh stuff on sale
😭
WHAT HAPPENED
THIS IS THE STORE THAT TRIED OT CHARGE ME 240 FOR SKACEN TIDE
hey what warhamemr model is the most like, literal height human
Im pretty sure theres no model like that lol
fair
ill use the uh, relic guy from the steel helms
needed a size ref
but i have no clue what model is the average sized human
Bout 2
Because the new heresy stuff is massively overproduced and stores massively overstocked even more then dominion
theoretically an imperator titan is 7ft tall at tabletop scale, GW dont sell those though so youd have to scratch build it 
The Imperium wouldn't just murder their own people fr
oh im eant
what model do we know the exact height of
soryr lol
yay!
help
trying to figure out if the horns are attached to them or not
spesh marines are 8 feet tall on average
Yes
yeah its attached
wasnt sure if it was their head or their mask
you can grab the antlers
and pull and they'll fall off in the off seasons
they're like irl antlers
for animals
so htey arent attached to the mask?
where they aren't always on
nah
they're attached to the head
you're welcome for this cursed info
okay thank you
the kuronthi do this?
lmao
Love me some handlebars
oh fiar point
way easier
in the off season
and they regrow
yearly
But the antlers aren't sexually dimorphic
like with irl deer and most animals with antlers
yee i know i just wasnt sureif the kurnothi were really wearing or have them grown in their head since its always behind thier mask
ah fair
welp nack to getting my com reference sheet ready

this feels so cursed
5000 deer
o yeah what weapon should they have
using the average for space marines which is 7 feet tall, and we know AoS and 40k use the same scaling, This specific chaos warrior is around 7 feet tall give or take. The Stormcast is 8 feet something
anyways I'm using marines because its easy
lol
but yeah use the chaos warrior for scale imo
Yeah stormcast are fucking huge lol
It’s kind of insane how big they are since they’re “basic” infantry
Tbh
The chaos warriors and stormcast being huge is fine imo
Chaos warriors especially have always been juiced
With stormcast being order chaos warriors
Ehhhh it’s fine I feel
Almost the size of Guilliman

Vasillac is swole
he IS the sexiest man alive
He?
man i love that AOS models are bigger
sorry, they
your right
they were masc in the short story
ohh lol
its a rough time being a steelhelm lmao
Steelhelms are also kinda short
tbh
compared to some other "normal" humans
Poor guys not much taller than a Skaven Clanrat
Yeah
compared to some of their higher ranking officers
Steelhelms seem uh
to have some malnutrition
tbf this has funnily enough always been the case with dwarf minis even in the old world
actually
the Zhadron feel a bit taller then normal duradin
one moment
They're a good head on the old Duardin
I'm not crazy wtf
the new Zhadron are huge lol
Compared to other duradin
guess they're juiced up on Chaos
just like Chaos Warriors
I meant like the WHFB Empire state troops vs hammerers and stuff
Oh yea
but yeah Zhadron are fucking big wtf
Praying for new Duardin models for Cities
Wonder what they're gonna do if they make new Aelves doe cities, like will they try to differentiate them from DoK and the other Aelves
Oh yeah speaking of hashut
- Hashut is not an elemental god. He is actually an ascended god, meaning he was once a mortal. He achieved divinity a long time ago. Hashut has the ambition to become an elemental god and be considered a true Chaos God, one of the Great Powers of Chaos. However, his chances of that are much lower than the Great Horned Rat's.
also important
- There is only one known exception to the Chaos Gods' efforts to destroy all realities. It's the Blood Bowl universe. They show restraint there because if they destroyed that reality, they would be denying themselves the pleasure of watching Blood Bowl matches.
I am coping so hard for new wanderers you would not believe me
BLOODBOOOOOOOOOWL
BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD BOOOOOOOOOOOOOWL
the fact that the writers outright say this btw
super serious setting guys i swear
😭
Honestly, I imagine that the 4 Chaos Gods are college roommates
Like
still mad the Bloodbowl video game
did not have the other Referees
only the goblin ones
All of their activity is just a bunch of friends fucking around with each other
WHERE ARE MY BIASED REFEREES
these 2 are peak
