Tyranids?

[nova scaffold]

yes

[crystal forum]

what is your fascination with roaches

[spare osprey]

i do like those revamped necromunda mercs tbh

[storm jungle]

learn their name

[arctic talon]

tbf they don't even follow the old aesthetic

lol

like

[crystal forum]

i have never heard a living being call nids roaches

[arctic talon]

They literally aren't following the old aesthetic

the same way the drukhari in 5e aren't based on the 3e drukhari aesthetic beyond like

basic ideas

imo

[spare osprey]

fair

[storm jungle]

man

this was back whe nlike

GW were cockteasing squats hard

[nova scaffold]

i mean the tyranids are basically like roach but on meth and grew to be taller then a man and you got trillion

[storm jungle]

Tyranids arent bugs

and i still dont get the meth connection

lol

[arctic talon]

like nah lol

[dapper gyro]

Love to see ammunition belt, but the gun uses magazine.

[arctic talon]

The armor is completely dif

[crystal forum]

please tell me that's a scavenged bolter

[arctic talon]

Imo if they had done all the future LoV and Ironhead stuff

I wouldn't mind

[crystal forum]

it's straight up a space marine model

[arctic talon]

its just a mastercrafted bolter in munda stats it has 0 lore

lol

[crystal forum]

it's a HH one too

[storm jungle]

it isnt

you do know like

[crystal forum]

one of those mark 3 marines have it

[nova scaffold]

bruh not one weapons look good with squats

[storm jungle]

bolters pre-date the Imperium right

[arctic talon]

as for where Grendl Grendlsen got it from

[nova scaffold]

they all look bad

[crystal forum]

it is a very specific model

shush dilara

[storm jungle]

no

[arctic talon]

As of new lore yes

[storm jungle]

no

[arctic talon]

[vagrant fox]

Very little looked good in that era

[storm jungle]

"new lore"

mfer

that lore is older tha nmost people here

😭

[arctic talon]

any lore before 5e is new

[arctic talon]

I know the capitol imperialis is canon lol

[storm jungle]

it got replaced i think

yeah that lol

[arctic talon]

the Capitol Imperialis is a better looking version

of the idea imo

[vagrant fox]

Epic was deeply unserious and very cool

[storm jungle]

tbh

its literally a box

[crystal forum]

they're described as land behemoths or something

[arctic talon]

[arctic talon]

I forgot they turned this poor display mini into an IF mini for heresy lol

[dapper gyro]

Remind me of the M12 SPG.

[arctic talon]

I think its based on it

[crystal forum]

good for you

[arctic talon]

maybe

a lot of the FW vehicles are much more obviously based on something

lol

[crystal forum]

looks like the base for the imperialis leman russ basilisk

[storm jungle]

Its better that you know Jay

[spare osprey]

there's a big uni wars vehicle i wish had art

[potent dragon]

@warped lark can rejects become ultramarines?

if they perform well

[spare osprey]

Gun-crawlers? think thas the name

[storm jungle]

no

they arent teenagers

[nova scaffold]

ngl i dont like the votaan vehicles because it looks goofy

[potent dragon]

BUT WHY

merit based

[crystal forum]

dilara he clearly asked that specific person

[vagrant fox]

too old

[storm jungle]

they arent teenagers

[crystal forum]

which we have never seen here

[arctic talon]

too old

They'll just die

[dapper gyro]

They need to be trained from young.

[arctic talon]

the process is best done on kids

or preteens

[potent dragon]

Otherwise, geneseed rejection.

[arctic talon]

besides

[potent dragon]

where are the child labor laws?

[arctic talon]

becoming a marine is ass

[potent dragon]

there has to be some regulation

[storm jungle]

They dont exist

[arctic talon]

THIS IS THE IMPERIUM

[nova scaffold]

it looks nothing like warhammer at all

[arctic talon]

LOL

[potent dragon]

bruh

we need reforms

[vagrant fox]

Imperium don't care

[potent dragon]

i vote for new changes

[crystal forum]

wait until you learn about tau

[storm jungle]

I mean its advanced tech

you do realise like

[dapper gyro]

Look at the Tau, then we can talk after.

[storm jungle]

not all of 40k is gothic junkyard explosions right

[arctic talon]

MORE CHILDREN IN THE FORGE

[spare osprey]

even then, they're full of over the top shit

[arctic talon]

THEY WILL WORK OR DIE

[nova scaffold]

i mean in tau defense, they are their own culture so it explains the looks like how eldari look eldari

[spare osprey]

and cultural voo doo

yay giant ai

[storm jungle]

but

[crystal forum]

votaan are older than tau and have their own culture

[storm jungle]

votann are their own culture too

lol

so that point makes no sense

[nova scaffold]

yeah still

[arctic talon]

yeah the LoV splintered off

[storm jungle]

wdym still

they arent imperium

[arctic talon]

pre DAOT

lol

[crystal forum]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN STILL

[arctic talon]

they aren't humans really

[nova scaffold]

they look goofy

[arctic talon]

They don't consider themselves human

[storm jungle]

It looks fine

[dapper gyro]

Votann is kind of human before all of the bad shit happened.

[vagrant fox]

It's fine, variety is the spice of life

[crystal forum]

very descriptive

[dapper gyro]

The current Imperium is backward.

[nova scaffold]

yeah the planets they lived in shrunk their heights

[storm jungle]

^

[nova scaffold]

true

[dapper gyro]

So they go back to gothic style, while Votann stays stylist.

[crystal forum]

they didn't live on planets

[nova scaffold]

i do like imperium and tau astetics

[spare osprey]

i think they're just built like that lmao

not a ratling situation

[dapper gyro]

Like, why would Votann put a fucking church on a mech?

[spare osprey]

yeah just put a stag on that shit

[crystal forum]

votaan literally look like space vikings

how is that not regressive

[warped lark]

why would you randomly @ me about this lol

but the answer is what other people said like absolutely not lmao

[nova scaffold]

tbh im more of a quar fan then warhammer tbh

because warhammer is expensive and i cant do skin tone

at all

[storm jungle]

Dont worry good sir we destroyed him good.

🫡

[warped lark]

thanks, carry on

[crystal forum]

quar looks like shit

[storm jungle]

[potent dragon]

carry off 😋

[potent dragon]

because

because.

[nova scaffold]

you complaining over water coler style

like bro thats their thing

[potent dragon]

this is why people join chaos and heretics. It's basically unionization

[crystal forum]

that is not why i complained

[potent dragon]

if you offered better healthcare and worker comp

[nova scaffold]

like what is wrong with this

[potent dragon]

maybe that can solve heretics better than marines can

[crystal forum]

the characters are trash

[potent dragon]

[crystal forum]

i hate cute shit meant to look gruesome

[nova scaffold]

quars? they are ant eaters

[storm jungle]

No thoughts allowed 🫡

whcih factions

all of them what dont you understand

[potent dragon]

[nova scaffold]

is basically like hating warhammer because is too much sade of dark even tho you got bunch of factions but you lumped them together

[crystal forum]

i wouldn't like warhammer if i hated the aesthetic

[storm jungle]

sven ffs just kill him

[crystal forum]

and plenty of people hate 40k's aesthetic

[nova scaffold]

like he hates quar because how they look

[storm jungle]

all the reason you need broski

ITS 40k RELATED

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/tamandua-anteater-gif-26465461

[nova scaffold]

we know your propaganda

[storm jungle]

my honest reaction

[vagrant fox]

Guard is lame and boring tho

[crystal forum]

this bored game is literally guard adjacent

just look at it

it just looks worse

[storm jungle]

the racism is crazy

https://tenor.com/view/kintisheff-white-anteater-tamandua-tetradactyla-standing-animal-gif-17026339

[nova scaffold]

he just a hater and most likely a 5 ft tall ant pretending to be a human

[crystal forum]

you laugh dilara but you won't be in 2 weeks when the chat is still full of this fuckoff game

quar

what kind of name even is that

[vagrant fox]

That's why the block function exists

[nova scaffold]

quar is a species name

[storm jungle]

ok Astra Militarum

[crystal forum]

guard rules idk what else to say

[nova scaffold]

yet the guard cant do combine arms at all

[vagrant fox]

Space marines are cooler and more lore relevant ☝️ 🤓

[crystal forum]

wtf are you talking about squidward

[nova scaffold]

if they so cool then why they cant use conbine arms

[crystal forum]

the guard, notorious for not having tanks, men and artillery all jammed together on the battleground

[crystal forum]

what are you talking about

[nocturne crest]

Odd question, but if the genesis chapter are the ultramarines' spare tire, what about 1st founding chapters?

[nova scaffold]

like after the horus heresy, the tanks formations are not allowed to mix with infantry

[crystal forum]

what's the genesis chapter

[crystal forum]

they mix all the time

how would that even make sense

that's some scouring lore type shit

[nova scaffold]

unless is the desert people, kreigs bois and the steel legions

[nocturne crest]

Ultramarine successor chapter that let the ultramarines take their tech marines and space marine pyskers if they need them.

[crystal forum]

those do too, all the time

[jade holly]

So emergency supplies

[nocturne crest]

Exactly.

[spare osprey]

wdym

[nova scaffold]

anyone else not allowed to do so

[crystal forum]

you speak with such confidence about shit you dont know about

[nova scaffold]

because of paranoid

[nocturne crest]

If the Imperial fists or blood angels had a chapter they could take specific members to refill their numbers, who would it be.

[crystal forum]

dont dark angels do that for all their successors

[spare osprey]

oh well IF have already done that lol

war of the beast

whole chapter got obliterated, they needed to rebuild from the geneseed and ranks of every one of their successors

[nocturne crest]

Nah, they changed that.

I think, they changed it so that some Imperial fists survived it.

[crystal forum]

i hope they change all war of the beast lore

and make it so it never happened

[warped lark]

lol

[hallow plover]

https://tenor.com/view/monkeys-paw-paw-monkey-gif-17535679

Couldn't get any worse r-right?

[spare osprey]

no?

least not from anything i've heard

koorland was the last and then they had to rebuild it

[warped lark]

"boy I really hope that GW progresses the narrative somehow"

[vagrant fox]

I don't think other first founding chapters have a whole reserve company in the form of a whole chapter as the Ultramarines do with the Genesis Chapter
Dark Angels is basically just a legion in disguise and the Blood Angels drew neophytes from a bunch of successors

[warped lark]

[crystal forum]

armageddon didn't need to kill 100000000 space marines to have a convincing ork story

(it's because guard is more fun)

[warped lark]

yeah they like just saying "and then like a billion space marine chapters all lost their lives in the greatest catastophe since the last greatest cataclysm since the great heresy"

"the emperor is spinning in his grave"

[crystal forum]

it's really just the war of the beast that's like that

for absolutely no plot reason

the beast is super unimportant in lore

[nocturne crest]

I can remember reading it on the lexicanum

[crystal forum]

we dont even have art of the beast

like how bad can it get

[hallow plover]

Don't you worry it'll come

[crystal forum]

god i hope not

[hallow plover]

We have the scouring first

[crystal forum]

we still need gazgul to come back

[vagrant fox]

I could forgive wotb if it was funny but it's not even vaguely

[hallow plover]

Then they'll work their way all the way up to the 41st millenium

[dapper gyro]

Nope, the OG IF was all gone.

[crystal forum]

only 9999 years to go

[dapper gyro]

This is the whole thing with Primaris IF are closer to the OG IF than the "first born" IF.

[hallow plover]

Gw has a release plan for the next century

[crystal forum]

i do like how everything between the scouring and dark imperium is just completely irrelevant to modern 40k

like the past 20 years of 40k lore prior to primaris have not mattered

i joined during 8th so i just dont get it

[arctic talon]

Scouring also didn’t matter back then lol

The only lore that mattered was all super recent stuff chronologically

🖐🏻

[tough haven]

Exactly, like 80% of 30k lore, it does not matter and all you need to know about it can be summed up in 3 sentences or less

[tough haven]

That’s why my campaign is set in it

[tough haven]

The beast was a failed attempt to make orks into xenos space marines that failed and was hated widely

[opaque coyote]

I mean like it's something that I actually wish 40k would go towards

splitting up the Imperium

Would allow more interesting factions

Variations of the Imperium cult

Xenos like Eldar/T'au go from "minor annoyance in the grand scheme"

to "oh god they're gonna destroy this entire mini kingdom"

Since now it's split apart

I only think the books about Lion attempting to return back actually take place there?

[tough haven]

Yeah in my current setting Aeldari and imperium only survive by having a tenuous and clandestine ceasefire between the two races

Through a rogue trader house

It isn’t widely known

[opaque coyote]

Yeah that also sounds interesting. It allows for more interesting politics between xenos than just

"Okay let's just kill them"

[tough haven]

Imperium presence as a whole just thinks they don’t stomp the xenos because we don’t know where they are/bigger fish to fry

[opaque coyote]

I think I remember something from the fanfic known as the "All Guardsman Party"

where they had like an inbetween space between T'au and Imperium space that has a bunch of independent planets.

[tough haven]

The situation is even so dire orks have begun to be sanctioned as mercenaries increasingly more frequently

[opaque coyote]

And due to the Imperium having bigger fish to fry. The planets are essentially a mix of T'au and Imperium.

[tough haven]

Sounds neat

[opaque coyote]

With the cultures basically mixing

[opaque coyote]

Yeah it was actually neat

[tough haven]

Since warp travel is suicidal at best, no reinforcements will be coming

[opaque coyote]

Also the Guardsmen being confused about there being things like... proper food.

[tough haven]

They need every bit of help they can

Haven’t introduced the tau yet

Mostly cause I haven’t figured out to make them interesting that isn’t Aeldari analogue

[opaque coyote]

Honestly, I always thought that there would be crazy cults in the Nihilus also

Like

Somehow more crazy than the status quo

[tough haven]

Oh but there are

[opaque coyote]

That are still Emperor worshipping

Just

[tough haven]

The shrine world in the system is a shitshow

[opaque coyote]

fucking crazy to the point where you can mistake it for a chaos cult

[tough haven]

Basically gang warfare all the time

[opaque coyote]

[tough haven]

Food crisis doesn’t help

[opaque coyote]

time for some delicious corpse starch

yum yum

[tough haven]

And real chaos cults are spawning in the turmoil and using it to move under the radar

Like the nurgle cult that claims to have a remedy for the blight affecting the fish population (it’s a oceanic world)

The cure is accepting nurgle into your heart so you never need to eat again

You aren’t cured of hunger however

[opaque coyote]

so it's kind of the opposite of the usual nurgle cultists

[tough haven]

The blight is caused by them though

[opaque coyote]

instead of being bloated

it's skinny zombies basically

or fast zombie looking mfs

[tough haven]

Yup

[tough haven]

The local space marine chapter and sororitas order have just been gunning down everything that’s halfway sus

But this cult has managed to survive

[opaque coyote]

I can imagine that actually kills more imperium worshippers than chaos LMAO

[tough haven]

Chaos is barely even a threat on the shrine world

Besides this nurgle cult it’s only minor groups

But with what you said about cults getting crazier in the nihilus, the genestealer cults are able to easily slip under detection by just appearing as eccentric zealots

Especially when they continue to wipe out heretical cults for the imperium

They’re unironically the most active group trying to wipe out the nurglites

Partially to take out the competition, and partly to exonerate themselves

Even once the cult is wiped out, they’ll maintain the facade of the cult still existing so they seem useful

All praise the Monarch Transcendent!

[opaque coyote]

the enemy of my enemy is my friend ig

for the time being anyways

i can imagine the sisters definitely being extremely stressed

"Are they a chaos cult or just fellow zealots?"

[tough haven]

I’ll take the evil I know

Any day

GSC is far harder to uproot in this instance

Who knows how far they’ve spread

Especially since the party refuses to fucking step foot on this worldb

I get that the necron threat on the forge world is dire, but honestly they’re less immediate once the party halted their current efforts to wake

That’s not even mentioning the Ork WAAAAGH! That’s currently occupying and consuming the entirety of the only agri world in system

Shits fucked

[opaque coyote]

also the fact that most cultists are nearly impossible to tell

all they need is a hat

and now they look exactly like a regular person

[tough haven]

Kill all hat havers

[opaque coyote]

or a wig

or idk

[tough haven]

Kill anyone with hair

[opaque coyote]

actually can't they just cut off their weird uh

thing?

idk what to even call it

[dapper gyro]

Gsc SoB when?

[opaque coyote]

like can't they surgically remove it?

[opaque coyote]

y'know

honestly

that sounds like a cool idea

imagine dual wielding bolters

with two arms holding one

[tough haven]

Here’s my escalation stages for orks

We’ve reached tier 1.5/2 if the party keeps giving them free reign

[opaque coyote]

Honestly I'm just imagining the Necrons literally just being like this the entire time:

https://tenor.com/view/ryback-chip-eat-gif-20847040

[dapper gyro]

You can make a fanfic out of that.

[tough haven]

Orks:
0. Not fightin’ time (yet), The orks are too busy feuding amongst themselves and dealing with defending their hulk from genestealers to be much of a threat to the system.

1. WAAGH! The orks make their first assault to fix up their hulk and try to pillage gubbins and what not, and krump some Humies along the way! mostly just a few boyz, though it won’t stay that way for long.
2. WAAAAGH! With their raid successful and their hulk a little bit more Orky, they decide that another planets gotta have the bits they need, and they krumped the first one easy enough! Lots more boyz, an’ more types of em too!
3. WAAAAAAGH! Now with another piece of their hulk working, they can move! (Sorta) Da Boss uses the hulk to attack yet more worlds and get some proper dakka for ‘is new kroozer! There’s loads and loads of boyz now, and we’z even got enough spare parts to have loads more wagons and tanks and stuff!
4. WAAAAAAAAAGH! Now that the kroozer has more dakka (could use some more though) we can nearly do a proper WAAAAAGH! We’z got all sorts of gitz now, and loads and loads of all sorts of mek built fings too!
5. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
   Now that the kroozer is fully built an’ ready to go, we’z can krump the rest of them bugeye boyz, then the rest of the gitz in da system, then go fight whatever’s on the other side of Gork’s Grin!

[tough haven]

Minorly annoyed rn

[opaque coyote]

yeha

I do want to make some 40k ocs in general

Had an idea of a Ex-Hospitaller Nurgle Worshipper

[tough haven]

Big Mek Dagbad WazKrooza is gonna be a menace soon

[opaque coyote]

Basically, loved one gets terminal illness

no cure

would do any deal

...

they get the deal

loved one still has terminal illness btw, but they're just

alive

[tough haven]

This is what the crons are up to

[opaque coyote]

well "alive"

[tough haven]

Necrons:
0. Unawakened, only minor autonomous protocols (prior to events of campaign)

1. Triggered, proximity alerts and attempted breaches awaken defensive units like wraiths, larger amounts of scarabs, acanthrites and the like, with a few interspersed warriors marked for early awakening in such a scenario.
2. Stirring, with continued and increased resistance from the planets inhabitants, the tomb complex awakens more of its warriors, along with set elites such as immortals to assess the situation, and begins proper awakening protocols.
3. Roused, having assessed the situation as dire, with vermin on the planet, the tomb complex begins rolling out proper offensive strikes to defend itself and repel invaders, with more specialized units and possibly vehicles.
4. Aware, the tomb is nearly fully active now and is repelling invaders with near maximum efficiency, with its near entire complement of units
5. Awakened, with the tomb fully active and it’s invaders eradicated or rendered neutralized as a threat, the tomb mobilizes its full might to unite the remaining necron forces in the system, and to eradicate the unclean life forms inhabiting it according to the Doctrines of War

And here’s GSC

Genestealer Cult:
0. Dormant, the cult lies inactive, lying in wait for the perfect moment to begin

1. Vector, the cult begins to use propaganda, feigned benevolence, and fervor against enemies of the imperium, to attract adherents and gain favor with the local authorities, the cult will avoid active confrontation at this time but will largely be using simple brood brothers if necessary.
2. Prodromal, the cult steps up their attempts to integrate higher into the upper ranks of the world, along with the local ecclesiarchy, along with spreading in popularity with the common folk. More pronounced mutations become available, along with more specialized variants.
3. Infection, the cult has now infiltrated the majority of the planet, and has a firm grip on its people, and is incredibly difficult to root out, powerful monsters such as abberants are present in large numbers, alongside pure strains
4. Outbreak, The cult has now spread through multiple vectors to several planets and is approaching critical mass and is spreading exponentially, only the most decisive action can halt them now, Purestrains and aberrations are now a common sight in the dark places of such planets
5. Pandemic, the cult has reached critical mass and is openly revolting in their day of Transcendence, unless eradicated immediately Tyranid incursion will be imminent, all of the cult’s assets are present and active to the fullest extent

Sorry for the big blocks of text

[opaque coyote]

Should be a 7th stage called "Arrival"

Tyranids come down

actually that's probably pointless since by that point the whole area is cooked

[tough haven]

That’s end of setting pretty much

If any reach 6 it’s game over

Or one last desperate chance

So it’s a balancing act

[opaque coyote]

Should throw them a tiny bone at least.

[tough haven]

Cause time spent on one faction gives the others time to grow strong

[opaque coyote]

Due to the cult being confident in their day of transcedence. Their bases are now open and obvious.

But there is a time limit.

If you basically pull a mini kryptman on like all of their bases, they go down two stages.

i heard lion el jonson is taking some control and he doesnt like what the blue guy is doing

i fucking forgot

and lion is like taking some land and men, and all

Hes planet hopping

so does that count

like i should know what that means

bhopping

[storm jungle]

it means hopping from planet to planet

maybe use some sense

[sharp pollen]

well that i know that he does some stuff but why does that matter

[storm jungle]

because you mentioned the stuff you assume hes doing

hence why someone would add to the context

dont remember anything tho

[celest dome]

The Traitor one ?

[sharp pollen]

yes

[storm jungle]

Theres not really any presedence for it so

[celest dome]

No chance they're damned

[storm jungle]

Yeah that

also like its a huge insult to their chaos fanbase

[hexed orchid]

There's been some suggestion that Mortarion might come back but it's massive cope

[storm jungle]

Basically yeah

[sharp pollen]

yeah, for Mortarion

[sour hornet]

Ultra cope

[storm jungle]

also no sane Death Guard fan or GW representative would do it, its an awful idea

[celest dome]

I'd love to see Mortarion leave Nurgle and become a Primarch of a legion loyal to Isha, but that's Fanfiction realm

[hexed orchid]

You know they won't do it because of mini sales

[sour hornet]

I hate primarchs coming back because its just a way for GW to jerk off the Imperium for more models

[storm jungle]

I mean that isnt a bad thing

making a mass murdering chaos primarch into a loyalist one is braindead

[sour hornet]

but they gotta bring back chadgatai khan

[hexed orchid]

Unless they split him in two or something 🤔

Crazier things have happened

[storm jungle]

Its also just superhero/MCU-ifying 40k further and further

[sour hornet]

Tell me about it lmao

[storm jungle]

Lmfao real

[hexed orchid]

Then they can sell two minis of the same character

[storm jungle]

ive been a fan since like the early 2000's so its awful to see

something-something ruined mah 40k

[hexed orchid]

https://tenor.com/view/money-money-money-gif-3641396535535975514

[pine wedge]

the entire galaxy being reduced to "what is this small handful of characters gonna do next???" for the main narrative is a tragedy for sure

[sour hornet]

The whole plague war thing with Guiliman vs. Mortarion reminded me of a DC comic series lmao

[storm jungle]

We get enough of that real life!

I thought this was a setting of escapism!!!!

[storm jungle]

the best part is like

its as is Batman is about ot fight Darkseid

OH NO WHOS GONNA DIE

No one dies

DAMN, SHOCKED

[sour hornet]

😭 😭

[storm jungle]

[pine wedge]

the worst part is that it works. primarch slop sells like crazy, the average customer loves it.

[storm jungle]

Yeah unfortunately this.

theres a reason 30k/hh has essentially ruined the fandom

people do NOTHING but talk about primarchs

[paper haven]

Batman never kills anyone and never dies

[storm jungle]

TIBETAN MONK TECHNIQUE-

[sour hornet]

Its deadass the funniest fucking thing when you realize they've pulled this shit with guilliman like twice already

[storm jungle]

Yeah and people still defend it

[pine wedge]

a friend of mine checked out the end and the death vol 1 and his response was "this is the worst book i've ever read"

[storm jungle]

HE LITERALLY GETS RESURRECTED MID-BATTLE

[sour hornet]

its also happened to the khan for no reason

[paper haven]

Which one?

[storm jungle]

Godblight

[sour hornet]

🥀 🥀 🥀

[paper haven]

Hahaha

[storm jungle]

thats also so braindead, Hank just reminded me

like

Mortarion actually kills the Khan

....why?

we know hes not gonna die?

what are you doing lmao

[paper haven]

✨ Drama✨

[pine wedge]

wait khan died?

[storm jungle]

SEE

lmao

also hold on lemme get it

[hexed orchid]

https://tenor.com/view/khan-kirk-startrek-william-shatner-yelling-gif-5575846

[sour hornet]

When is Mortarion going to kill a primarch and they actually fucking die?

[pine wedge]

never

[paper haven]

Never

[sour hornet]

Yeah during the siege of terra

fighting morty

[paper haven]

Get wrecked morty

[pine wedge]

they killed a primarch once before and i think GW's feelings about the matter are basically

[hexed orchid]

More likely he gets bullied by the Grey Knights again

[pine wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/tiger-king-finances-recovering-ruined-money-gif-3010668295717914484

[sour hornet]

morty straight up kills him with his scythe

[paper haven]

Grey knights, bully that daemon Primarch

[storm jungle]

he spends the rest of the series in a coma

and is totally dead-dead

[paper haven]

Nah, he'll be fine

[sour hornet]

they later take khans body back and they revive him

[paper haven]

Warhammer is like Marvel

[sour hornet]

using super DAOT tech

[paper haven]

They never can do anything too drastic

[sour hornet]

"WE CAN REBUILD HIM" ass plotline

🥀

[paper haven]

We HaVe ThE tEcHnOlOgY

[storm jungle]

you guys should see him in Era of Ruin

he laments over Horus being dead

and re-sleeps

[pine wedge]

stares motherfuckerly at g-man why didn't they do that... with him...?

[paper haven]

Look how they massacred my boy

[pine wedge]

"nah put rowboat in a stasis field, we'll figure it out 10k years from now."

[paper haven]

Stop thinking

[pine wedge]

but this is dumb, i thought khan just disappeared into the webway or smth

why does he suddenly spend some time being dead-dead-not-dead

[paper haven]

Just consume product and get excited for next product

[sour hornet]

he also does that

[storm jungle]

^

they just temporarily kill him during the siege

and then have him be ok before it ends

[paper haven]

It's ten thousand years

He can do more than one thing

[pine wedge]

does morty's scythe have special killy killer killing properties? or is it just a scythe

[arctic talon]

He’s in the clown zone

[arctic talon]

It’s a disgusting daemon weapon scythe then

But before that it’s just a fancy power scythe lol

[sour hornet]

Its pretty garbage as a weapon. He impales Khan and doesn't kill him permanently, he "kills" G-man with it like twice for no effect.

[arctic talon]

Tbf scythes are awful weapons

lol

[paper haven]

The death guy can't kill anyone important

[storm jungle]

dont forget when Garou gets stabbed by it he drags himself up it to stab Mortarion in the neck

???????

THATS NOT HOW SCYTHES WORK

[paper haven]

wha

[arctic talon]

Writers just think it’s a sword

Ig

Idfk

[sour hornet]

He also kills a bunch of no-name GK with it, but then just gets ultramogged by Kaldor Draigo

[storm jungle]

Yeah lmfao its in Garo Knight of Gray

[arctic talon]

Mortarion is the #1 jobber of the daemon primarchs

[arctic talon]

No he almost kills Draigos ass

lol

[storm jungle]

"almost"

he still doesnt

[arctic talon]

No shit

Different from draigo instantly obliterating him like in 5e though

[pine wedge]

this is why the loyalist primarchs returning is terrible for the narrative. the whole point of daemon primarchs in the warp and no loyalist primarchs around was emphasizing the precarious position and moral decay and the glory days are definitely over over vibe of the imperium

[arctic talon]

Mortarion exists to job

Lll

[pine wedge]

now we have primarch vs primarch novels but nobody can ever die and it's just so pointless.

[arctic talon]

Unfortunately they make too much money

[arctic talon]

Tbf those are the minority

There’s like been 1

In modern 40k

[sour hornet]

If I got sent back into the warp with the name of the master of the guy who killed me literally carved until my heart, that would count as losing.

[arctic talon]

I don’t count 30k

lol

[hexed orchid]

Magnus vs Mortarion for biggest punching bag

A fight for the ages

[sour hornet]

Not even a primarch vro 🥀 🥀 🥀

[arctic talon]

Ig 2 for Lion vs Angron which is a paragraph in a campaign book

Which is just Lion running for his life while everything else shoots at angron

lol

So I don’t even count that

[pine wedge]

it was the whole centerpiece of one of the new edition introductions. and you can bet your ass that's going to be more.

[sour hornet]

I hate Marvel I hate Marvel I hate Marvel

[arctic talon]

My guy it has been 8 years

[pine wedge]

nah g-man and primaris were introduced 18 months ago, tops. get outta here with that.

[arctic talon]

We’ve had 1 primarch v primarch book in 40k

Since 8e

Nah

I know what it feels like to be old

[sour hornet]

The best 40k stories are self contained and about units we dont care about so people can actually die

[pine wedge]

what even is the passage of time

[arctic talon]

You too shall feel the sands of time

[pine wedge]

8 years??? jesus

[arctic talon]

It’s been 10 years since 7e

Sorry it’s like 7 and a half years

Since primaris

[pine wedge]

gaunt's ghosts my beloved

[arctic talon]

[arctic talon]

Primaris have been around

For almost 8 years

In any case I think the reception to the

[celest dome]

I don't really care about Primarch cause they mostly take SM fight/books

[arctic talon]

Mortarion Guilliman thing in 40k

Prolly put GW off from doing more

[sour hornet]

Thankfully

[arctic talon]

Primarch v primarch slop fights novels

[sour hornet]

it pointless when you know people aren't going to die

Its just not GWs style

[pine wedge]

lijah cuu killing colm corbec and try again bragg is peak 40k fiction and nobody can tell me otherwise. i was genuinely upset when i read that. like a sinking feeling in my stomach. that's what 40k should be about.

just making people feel miserable.

[paper haven]

What's the most recent change that everyone is angry about?

[arctic talon]

I think Lions internal monologue of how screws he is if he tries to fight Angron as he runs from Angron is hilarious

[sour hornet]

they couldn't even kill cadians when the planet exploded

[arctic talon]

Female custodes

[paper haven]

I can never keep track

[arctic talon]

Ig

Idfk

[paper haven]

Still?

[arctic talon]

Terminus decree isn’t a change to lore

It’s just an addition to existing lore

[pine wedge]

there hasn't been a big one for a while, i think?

[arctic talon]

So that doesn’t count

It’s literally just female custodes

[pine wedge]

oh yeah terminus decree is being gigamemed

[arctic talon]

That’s the only retcon in recent history

[arctic talon]

Not a retcon or lore change imo

So I don’t count it personally

[pine wedge]

people can be upset about things other than retcons

[arctic talon]

Yeah

But they said change

[pine wedge]

why is that a criteria

lol

[arctic talon]

I take change as retcon

Tbh

[pine wedge]

an addition is also a change

[arctic talon]

Not existing lore advancing

[sour hornet]

I began typing something about Eldar lore changes, but started laughing at the idea of the fanbase giving a shit about eldar

[pine wedge]

anything that ever happens is a change

[arctic talon]

People bitched about wraithbone because it was lore out of context

And worded like shit

Wraithbone becomes physical material

Once it materializes in reality

The usage of Ore is still shit

But eldar don’t need to mine

[arctic talon]

[pine wedge]

i dont think i ever knew what wraithbone was previously

[arctic talon]

It’s just

[pine wedge]

beyond eldar handwavium

[arctic talon]

Solidified warp stuff

That is no longer warp stuff

It gets called a psychic “plastic”

In any case the wraithbone thing

Changed literally nothing

If anything I blame the person who leaked the codex cropping like shit

And not having the entire chunk of text

Which might have been intentional lol

[arctic talon]

Bonesinger sings a specific way -> warp stuff begins crystallizing and solidified -> once enough forms bonesinger sings a specific way again and it becomes an actual physical thing rather then just crystallized warp stuff

[median star]

the iron hands also have similar daot tech for reviving dead ppl but theirs dont turn out exactly spectacular

[arctic talon]

Tbf they’re like

Zombies lol

Sentient zombies granted, but there’s something very wrong with them from what little we’ve see

[pine wedge]

okay fair enough then but i was also thinking about angron's whole arc of omens thing. just anything involving primarchs is immediately a snoozefest because they will never die anyway. but now that i typed that out i realize that important characters never die in general so maybe it doesnt make a difference.

[median star]

nah theyll be fine just uh whatever for the love of the emperor dont let them leave medusa

[arctic talon]

Yeah that’s just a curse of named character thing tbh

That’s why gathering storm is the only actual campaign book that surprised me

Because they just killed actual characters with minis lol

But I’m not a fan of named character books generally

The new crusade books have been good about avoiding named characters being involved with the plot aside from background stuff mostly

[pine wedge]

right, the minis. i'm mostly a game player and book reader so i approach the setting from a different angle, but having a mini for a cool character only for them to die in the story probably sucks

[arctic talon]

Tbh, it’s fine since GW lets you keep using them

Unless the mini is really old

Then rip mini

Daedoleus the techarcheologist died within the year he was introduced

But his mini is still produced by GW

[queen laurel]

That's why I have a modicum of detachment to the setting i'm game player and book reader through and through, but know that GW's entire lore game ecosystem is designed to do one thing

sell that sweet sweet plastic crack

[arctic talon]

Though he got hit with a different foul spell, the curse of generification lol

A rare spell that mostly occurs in WHFB and AoS

[queen laurel]

Grukk face rippa moment

[arctic talon]

But AoS has ironically killed a good bit of named characters

In their setting

Lady of vines got her goddamn head torn off

[queen laurel]

Isn't she immortal though

[arctic talon]

And the Blades of Khorne dude died

[queen laurel]

you know sylvaneth

[arctic talon]

She’s been regrowing for almost 3 editions

I think she’s dead man lol

They even generified her mini

Wait sorry wrong sylvaneth who got their head torn off

[queen laurel]

i was about to say because i am like 99% sure this lady is immortal

[median star]

also i was talkin abt a book where their was a loyalist nightlord that had joined into ravenguard and was fighting alpha legion finally found his name kasati nuon he and an loyalist iron warrior also w the ravenguard then got sent back to terra and presumably died during the siege

[arctic talon]

I was thinking of the arch revenant

She also got her head torn off and hasn’t been seen since lol

Drunati

Who totally wasn’t a dark elf from whfb

Ignore the fact she enjoyed impaling people and feeding them to her sprites while they were alive

actually that’s just normal sylvaneth behavior

[queen laurel]

that's just normal

That's still not like as insane as Drycha

[arctic talon]

Tbf

The fact she felt like she was doing something she did in a past life while doing that

Is the only reason I think she might be made out of a dark elf

[arctic talon]

Mrs. KILL ALL BEINGS WITH MEAT is certainly insane

[queen laurel]

yeah I know alariel at least regrets her episode of bringing her back

[median star]

do any of yall agree w the theory sevatar became a grey knight

[arctic talon]

I mean he was a proto GK

So imo yes

[median star]

i think itd be funny if not 1 but 2 nightlords were some of the first grey knights

IM FUCKING BUYING

[storm jungle]

[raven stone]

Interesting note about the Japanese (which, in this case, uses the one written script that borrows a LOT from written Chinese)…or it is simplified Chinese (Damn getting rusty)

The term “Primarch” used can be literally read as “Original Base Genetic Tmeplate”

The full term is “The Original Base Genetic Template of the 4th Legion”

[dapper gyro]

They used to say the scale, do they still do? Or they gave up because of the scale creep on all of their line?

[median star]

iv read that the bolters he had were 'shrapnel bolters' where theyd explode right before impact was he the only person to ever notably use these i wonder

[sacred ginkgo]

What (if anything) served as inspiration for the Astronomicon and the Navigators
Just finished reading another thing with “space lighthouse and limited lineage of people who can see it” and I want to know how far the concept can be traced back

[median star]

also mr.pert sure has a lot of gold and decorations to be known as one of the no nonsense kind of guys

[celest dome]

Dune's Navigator ?

[storm jungle]

Entirely Dune

[sacred ginkgo]

Neat

[storm jungle]

down to the genetics nonsense, looking like monsters the more they age, people not being able to see their true forms, etc

they are one of the more blatant bits of stolen stuff lol

[sacred ginkgo]

What was their reference point thing to navigate by in dune

[storm jungle]

Uhh using spice and travelling wayships which actively mutate them

AND having it as a "commerce"

thus every human group/house being reliant on them for FTL travel

[sacred ginkgo]

I meant like astronomicon equivalent, or is that from elsewhere

[celest dome]

I'm not sure if there was a Spice Lighthouse

[storm jungle]

The astronomican is pretty original, its just a big lighthouse

[sacred ginkgo]

Neat

Just finished reading the entirety of Isles of Emberdark in one sitting (7 hours) and wanted to know where the navigators and space lighthouse thing came from because it also appears there

[storm jungle]

Yeah its not exactly a super niche idea

FTL being reliant on some core structure/point is a pretty general sci-fi trope

[sacred ginkgo]

I just wanted to know if there was a specific place to point at for starting the idea

Otherwise

Amazing book

[storm jungle]

Im alas not that much of a sci-fi nerd to know an origin point

[sacred ginkgo]

I will continue to glaze Brandon Sanderson until I die

we're so back

and a new space wolves book

im eating good

[green loom]

Short story author mainly

Red Talons, Tallarn Leman Russ Crew, and another Night Lord short story

Collins is the biggest one here looks like

Martyr's Tomb, Eidolon, Helbrecht, Void king etc.

[rocky gale]

"hirsute" Do they have Abnett writing WarCom articles now

[queen laurel]

Female necron mc

First the kill team now this

Interesting

[vagrant fox]

the woke wins again

[queen laurel]

Good

[vagrant fox]

back in my day in 4/5e you'd be lucky to see a woman in the background

[wet sandal]

dominion genesis had a female mc as well

[vagrant fox]

I don't know these authors, are they any good?

[wet sandal]

the guy's last name is beer, how bad could he be

and his writing is nice too i guess

[rocky gale]

I'm glad she just looks like a regular Necron

and not the fandom interpretation of what a female necron looks like

[wet sandal]

the biotransference took away her fucking boobs 😔

[queen laurel]

Yeah that is rather some questionable interpretation there

[wet sandal]

i will never forgive the deceiver for this

[rocky gale]

Maybe she was flat before

[queen laurel]

Why the hell would you want to shag a race that was known to be cancer ridden and dying before they got the metallic body

[wet sandal]

you're the one talking about shagging

i just like it when women

[queen laurel]

That's still doesn't change the cancer ridden and dying part

And well you know old necrons aren't exactly paragons of morality

[wet sandal]

does being fleeting not make a thing more beautiful? and morality is overrated

god forbid a man do anything, jeez

You're the one liking a woman from an empire that declared a galactic war that led to the extinction of a group of god like beings

"but in fact, they were on a... tomb world"

[queen laurel]

Hey female necron mc which is a first on books i think unless you can find me another one

[green loom]

"This is no seat of power of a necron dynasty.... Tis a tomb-"
(Off screen necron helper) -"world!"
"A tomb world"

This world is a world of tombs....
A tomb world even...

[wet sandal]

a cemetery celestial body

[vagrant fox]

As it features as the title of the novel, much like novels named after characters I hardly expect the actual tomb world to be in it

[hallow saddle]

either Dan or it's the architect from the matrix

[hallow plover]

*writes down * Necron on the great idea list

[celest dome]

Didn't we get a book named Forgeworld ?

[storm jungle]

we also got a book named:

• Deathworld

and

• Deathworlder

[rocky gale]

"Black Legion" Thousand Sons on the cover, literally unreadable

[shadow plover]

well at least he is in black and gold

[celest dome]

And a Khornate one behind them

[storm jungle]

cannot read any of these

get these text objects out of my sight!!!!

[proven needle]

There's a short story that has a female as the main necron PoV.

[storm jungle]

yeah 1 Thousand Years or something

i think its good that we finally got a mainline novel with a femcron main character

most people still dont realise female necrons are a thing lol

[rocky gale]

Has to be one of the most interesting looking cover arts for a 40k novel I've seen, but I've never heard anything about it

[proven needle]

Although the metal bits look a lot like manga tails to me

[storm jungle]

[shadow plover]

it's very good

[storm jungle]

Shut up!!!

[storm jungle]

Its a mindfuck novel

the author is obsessed with making the Warp/paranormal stuff in his own corner of 40k confusing for the sake of confusing

Mid 🗣️

all its fans must be lashed on the streets

[shadow plover]

calling something interesting mid, peak dilara..

[storm jungle]

You'd know Mr Spoiler

also not taking this from someone that likes 343 Halo

kill him!

[sacred bluff]

i worry i won't find a knight/titan novel as good as assassinorum kingmaker

[shadow plover]

I will not listen Infinite slander from someone who likes cod

[storm jungle]

Titan you can

Knight uhhh yeah you wont 💀

theres barely any Knight stuff out there as is

[sacred bluff]

i read peak too early

[storm jungle]

😔

[sacred bluff]

what are good titan novels

[shadow plover]

Titanicus

(surprise)

[sacred bluff]

[vagrant fox]

yea titanicus

[wet sandal]

All the knight content is in mechanicus books

[shadow plover]

I do think Mortis is pretty good too, people don't like it for the fact that it is a Titanicus book in the middle of the siege

[vagrant fox]

Priests of Mars has some, I forget if it's good but I don't remember disliking it

[wet sandal]

It cool

[sacred bluff]

i enjoyed mortis far more than people made it out to be

definitely not the worst siege book

that falls to the lost and the damned

[wet sandal]

Dominios genesis had a knigh pilot as one of the leading characters, Servants of the Machine-God is like half about knights

At this point whenever I'm trying to read peak (mechanicus content) I'm annoyed to see knightslop

And it's not even that bad, but goddamn I just want mechanicus shit in my mechanicus books

[vagrant fox]

Storm of Iron for titans I think there was one called Warlord also?

It'd be nice to see more wack and esoteric mechanicus inner workings in some novels

[sacred bluff]

no more clankers

[storm jungle]

hey

clankers are cool

[wet sandal]

I'd be satisfied with more mechanicus books at least being written from a perspective of an actual mechanicus member

[sacred bluff]

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

Be me

Reading Mortis

Skip pages every time a knight/titan shows up

[wet sandal]

Trve

[storm jungle]

Im not even memeing

made the book way more bearable

fucking titan/knightslop

Every Knight/Titan book be like:
"UAAAGH THE TITAN/KNIGHT, ITS NOT LISTENING TO MEEEEeeee ok nevermind its under control now."

[vagrant fox]

Entirely valid but the words engine kill are mad cool

[storm jungle]

The amount of mechslop outweighs it

"UAAAH CANT CONTROL IT IM GONNA... IMMA.. IM GONNA ADEPTUS TITANUCS AUAGHH-"

[languid meadow]

Sounds like someone can't control it

[wet sandal]

Tbh I would almost like it better if the knight/titan content was bad. Just skip it and be done with it. But half the time it's actually decent, and I'm sort of invested. I don't want to be invested in mecha shit, I want to read more about hexagrammatic noospheric communication

[storm jungle]

Same

like it doesnt help that titanslop is SO fucking overhyped in the fandom too

giant robots are cool but every single titan novel/chapter is the exact same shit

If I gotta hear about how the princeps feels like a giant god controlling a big robot for the 1094045th time im gonna go berserk

[wet sandal]

There's a very easy solution the leading magi have desived some years ago

Just ignore the fandom lmao

I hear a lot of things about how fans of X and Y are cringe, but it's much less of a problem if you don't interact with them

[vagrant fox]

just don't read as many titan novels 7head

I don't particularly care for mechs at all outside of 40k but even then I've only read a few novels with them that I can remember

[wet sandal]

yeah but i'm not reading any titan novels, i'm reading mechanicus novels, but these massive fucks just keep showing up

[vagrant fox]

I'm just talking shit to avoid coursework, it's entirely valid

I'd also rather read about noosphere shitposting rather than the same thing over and over

[storm jungle]

Easier said than done

[wet sandal]

i'm managing

[storm jungle]

I go anywhere, its titanslop

Also its kinda hard to ignore a fandom im actively in so

[wet sandal]

And they stretch it to like 2 months

[rocky gale]

Surprised they're not doing anything special, GW loves special events

[queen laurel]

What are we getting nothing?

Just looks like a recap

[queen laurel]

Well better than nothing

Even if a recap is rather minimal

[rocky gale]

Oh it's a recap of 1st edition, later we'll get a recap of 2nd edition

So maybe it will lead to something

Recap each edition and then show us something new

[queen laurel]

I hope so

[vagrant fox]

disrespectful use of å aos is ruined

God I hate the killdozer and the people who idolize it

"I get all my info from YouTubers and never check anything myself" supremes

[winged jacinth]

"I don't want to redo my sewage system to bring it up to code and connect in the right place better knock down a bunch of buildings then shoot myself"

[queen laurel]

It's a literal machine made as a manifestation of someone's anger and hatred idolizing that thing is rather quite stupid

But unfortunately people will be people

[winged jacinth]

Not even justified anger and hatred

Libertarian brainrot telling him he shouldn't need to comply with a system's rules to use it

[storm jungle]

You can have a lot more better reasons to hate the government.

(they provide plenty)
