'In America'

Cause the rich have managed to convince people that Unions were the worst thing in the world

[storm jungle]

mfw when Pinkertons

actually my bad they dont "officially" exist anymore so gotta rely on other methods lol

[celest dome]

The Pinkertons are unionised

Don't the Pinkertons still exist though ?

[nocturne crest]

Yeah, in Sweden.

[celest dome]

They're owned by Securitas, but they're still US only from what I see

[storm jungle]

yeah basically

they dont have as much free reign ever since the Pinkerton Act wayyyy back

before then they could literally mosey into any Union and just outright abuse/kill workers or break legs to get them back to work

nowadays you gotta be more careful with that stuff

https://tenor.com/view/office-space-bill-lumbergh-coffee-look-stare-gif-4429465

[near wasp]

No fucking way

[storm jungle]

Yeah google it, its fucking goofy

[near wasp]

Where there's a will there's a way

[vagrant fox]

wizards of the coast sicced the pinkertons on a guy who got some magic the gathering cards early

very cool and basedpilled

[storm jungle]

^

they rarely ever do industrial stuff anymore

[near wasp]

I knew they existed and were still active but I didn't know they fucking worked with securitas

[storm jungle]

THAT we know of

like I said since the Pinkerton Act they cant really super openly do illegal shit

[near wasp]

That's specifically what fucks me up because I deal with securitas alot

[storm jungle]

Yeaaah

every big company has its darker side

its like Boeing and people thinking they just do airplanes lol

(and didnt have over 5 whistleblowers assassinated)

[near wasp]

Boeing is just the assassinorum

[storm jungle]

Yep lol

I love how people just accept it as well

because what are you gonna do, theres no case to be made lmfao

[nocturne crest]

Wait, is there two Dilara?

[storm jungle]

[nocturne crest]

Oh, it's just discord being buggy.

I can't wait to get off work and cry myself to sleep with a bite of whiskey. I just feel like a scribe forced to work brutal terrible hours completely understaffed

[queen laurel]

i mean hey if I wanted to truly scar someone for life I would just point them at the general direction of the night Lords

[near wasp]

I'd just show them any servitor factory

Hell any servitor would probably scar them for life

[nocturne crest]

God damn Marvel Zombies.

[storm jungle]

I remember that page being posted here before

well at least you did not show them what happened after

[sour hornet]

is Peter pregnant???

💀

[nocturne crest]

I wonder if chaos would still be a powerful force in 40k, if all the CSMs got wiped out.

But their primarchs still exist as well.

[queen laurel]

no sandman encountered a zombie version of him thought he was crazy and proceeded to kill him violently by going inside of him and then bursting him out

[vagrant fox]

it's a version of mpreg if you think about it

[sour hornet]

^

[near wasp]

Chaos is still a threat regardless of Marines. Daemons can spawn basically anywhere and regular people can ascend to princes

[sour hornet]

sounds like mpreg with extra steps

[near wasp]

Y'all need help jfc

[nocturne crest]

Do the mods have a bat to bonk these peeps?

[vagrant fox]

Nah I bribe the mods so I can say and do whatever I want

[queen laurel]

You are telling this chat to get help?

BAHAHAHAHAHAH

[near wasp]

At this point fucking yes

There are lines that you don't cross dammit

you're just wasting your energy my guy

[nocturne crest]

If the primarchs were created to be female at birth, who would probably want to start a family?

[near wasp]

Fulgrim always had wives

[nocturne crest]

So Fulgrim would have husbands then?

[near wasp]

Probably

[dapper gyro]

You are first in the line, how can I help you?

To destroy your sanity further.

[near wasp]

Bro I'm already crazy

You can't do anything to make me crazier

[celest dome]

If mpreg are the boundary then we can do worse

This is not a dick measuring contest, it is about the well being.

And it can always be worse.

[sour hornet]

Im exactly where I want to be

[sour hornet]

How would the mechanics of that even work bro

[dapper gyro]

That one strong man guy has the petite wife... So it does work somewhat in real life.

[arctic talon]

He didn’t have sex with any of them. They were political marriages

[sour hornet]

https://tenor.com/view/zesty-cat-niklas-cat-tongue-gif-9842551414196208576

Source?

[arctic talon]

Read the fulgrim heresy books

I’m not grabbing an exact source

He yaps about how it was all political

[celest dome]

Well tbf, having sex->childrens were historically speaking part of the political marriages

[sour hornet]

the freak is officially back on

[arctic talon]

Yeah but they specify how their wasn’t any love involved

[sour hornet]

oh

[arctic talon]

Fulgrim just says he did care for them in his own way, but it wasn’t like that

lol

[celest dome]

Sex >< love

[arctic talon]

They explicitly did not have sex

[sour hornet]

bro which is it

[arctic talon]

Ffs

I don’t want to grab the excerpt because I don’t have the book on hand

[sour hornet]

would be a lot cooler if they did

[arctic talon]

I’ll just go find it

[celest dome]

You just had to be explicit 🤷

Just say they had no sex and tada

[sour hornet]

elite did tbf

I just asked for a source

[arctic talon]

I literally was

[celest dome]

well then sorry

but still was fun

[arctic talon]

lol

True

Fulgrim sat back. 'I was betrothed, once,' he continued idly. 'Several times, actually. Political marriages, of course. Made to seal binding agreements, or open negotiations with certain executive dynasties.' Pyke didn't reply. His tone had become sombre. A rare thing, for Fulgrim. The Phoenician seemed to always be smiling, laughing at some joke only he understood. But now, he seemed tired. He rubbed his face. 'I outlived them all, one way or another.' 'Did you love them?' Fulgrim smiled slowly. 'Some. I think. At first. After a time, I stopped.
Love was a weakness I could ill afford in those days.

[nocturne crest]

Should have marriaged an admech.

[languid meadow]

I love these character moments for every primarch

adds a nice personal touch to remind us they're people and all the evil shit they did was even worse

imagine at launch their servers will become IEDs

[languid meadow]

game is goated asf just wish the servers could keep up I'm lagging like a mf

I love breakthrough ! ! ! !

[spring cairn]

i do love breakthrough

[languid meadow]

this recon challenge is gonna be the death of me

[winter vessel]

can't believe i'm gonna miss out on all this cool shit while im at Basic Training in the army come September. I'll probably get lucky a year from then once i get myself situated.

[spring cairn]

i did it just playing with shotgun on cairo

in 1.5 match

i didn't even ping people

[languid meadow]

damn the stars aligned to really say no to battlefield

[dapper gyro]

What do you do? Because basic shouldn't take a year.

[winter vessel]

God Figured "why play it? You gonna be IN IT.". Ah well, so long as they deliver and not cock it up, it's a win. Maybe by then the game will be stable after the clusterfuck of bugs or likely issues

[spring cairn]

basic was 4 months when i did it

[dapper gyro]

After the first few months, the timing should be easier and you will get a lot of time off.

[spring cairn]

and then i had a year of waiting to get in my specialisation

"waiting"

not really but might aswell

[winter vessel]

My contract has my training estimate lasting up till march of next year according to my recruiter, provided it goes will without a hitch. After basic its my AIT which is infantry School, from there I go to RASP, then Jump School.

@dapper gyro

[dapper gyro]

US army?

[winter vessel]

yep

[dapper gyro]

It still shouldn't be that bad.

After basic and the 1st half of infantry would be difficult, but after that, it is not too bad. A lot of down time to enjoy life.

I'm not American, but it should still be similar.

[winter vessel]

Fair points. Mentioned it before in chat, but I mainly enlisted for my family. Parents will be pushing 60 and still work a 9 to 5 just to be financially “stable”. And it’s been my long time dream to be in the service. I want to use whatever pay I accumulate to help them and live a comforting life. Least I’ll be closer to my sister and brother in law from where I’ll be trained and stationed.

[spring cairn]

good luck dude

[winter vessel]

Anyways, looks like queue emptied a bit, Time to try the beta

[spring cairn]

just don't fall and fuck ur left leg up 1 month out of basic and u good

[shadow plover]

Like three hours ago the queue was almost 200,000

[queen laurel]

good luck man and i hope everything goes well for you

[sour hornet]

the big green weenie has got another 🥀 🥀 🥀

[sour hornet]

hes going to jump school, his knees are dust vro

[spring cairn]

i had to get intramedullary nailing

[surreal nest]

EA asking me to open up my bios and transfer my bios setting and also rewrite my disc to support that transfer just to play battlefield is comedy

[spring cairn]

at least i got to be called sergeant by grubs for a few weeks

[shadow plover]

I spent 9 hours on tuesday setting up secure boot after the BIOS update I did failed

[sour hornet]

that sounds like a roman torture method practiced on malnourished gauls

wtf is that

[surreal nest]

Yeah there is just too much that can go wrong and I am not doing that shit for EA just so they can brown nose my data

[storm jungle]

Hand over your personal data at once

🫡

[shadow plover]

it's also required if you want to upgrade to W11 so figured I'll just do it now

[surreal nest]

I will not be doing that either

Crown me king of slime

[shadow plover]

I wont any time soon either, but at some point it'll come time to do that so whatever

[spring cairn]

i have a steel rod in my bone basically

[surreal nest]

every windows launch is the current generation's 9/11 of tech issues

[shadow plover]

the process of enabling secure boot isn't really too difficult but I managed to fuck up my BIOS update because I used the manufacturer's software to update it instead of an USB stick because I didn't have any lying around

[surreal nest]

Cant wait for the gambling ads update

[surreal nest]

Problem is my bios is in legacy or whatever

and to transfer to the new format I have to reformat my discs

[shadow plover]

mine was too

[surreal nest]

Wait you didnt have to rewrite your disc?

[shadow plover]

had to change the format from MBR to GPT

yeah Windows has a tool that lets you do that without formatting the data

but you can't have more than one partition on your drive when you do it

mbr2gpt it is called iirc

[surreal nest]

dont taze me but what is a partition

[spring cairn]

it's a sheet of paper you read to play music

no need to thank me

[surreal nest]

15 hammers

[spring cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/orange-cat-gets-flung-and-explodes-orange-cat-funny-cat-meme-explodes-gif-10706110874965244466

[shadow plover]

A SSD/HDD can be separated into multiple partitions that operate as distinct drives or memory slots so to speak

[surreal nest]

Ok so I am not doing that cool

[shadow plover]

usually the drive that the OS is installed will have an recovery partition automatically generated for it

it can be deleted for this process though

[surreal nest]

if I dont have to rewrite my entire disc I might as well prep my battlestation for the new waters

[shadow plover]

and it can be remade after the shift has been made if you want to do so

but that's a bit of extra work

even deleting the partition is a bit of work if you're not familiar with console commands

[surreal nest]

I basically treat my PC like its a 16 year old car and I really need it to get to work so

[spring cairn]

you kick it

[surreal nest]

Upgrading my CPU was the worst experience I've ever had

[surreal nest]

I have had to

i dont even have an old computer by that standard

its all upgraded parts

[spring cairn]

my van's a pile of shit but i got it for almost free

[shadow plover]

if you open your disk manager you'll see if the drive has partitions, those are separate squares within the physical drive

[spring cairn]

i'm sure there's at least 1 dent on the door that was left by the boot of the previous owner

[surreal nest]

I got 1 basic partition and 2 primary

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-squarepants-spongebob-arrgh-mr-krabs-flying-dutchman-treasure-hunt-gif-10613794766816553895

[shadow plover]

on the single disk you have your OS installed?

[surreal nest]

Yeah

[shadow plover]

what are they called

[surreal nest]

oh wait i unhid the system reserved one

[shadow plover]

so Disk 1 is your OS drive, C:. It has two partitions and the system reserved partition is before the main partition in the index so you might be able to do the switch without messing about these at all

[winter vessel]

well everything running smoothly past 2 matches, except i was missing my arms in the 2nd match, lol. just floating gun

[shadow plover]

I've been enjoying 6 quite a bit

I already have more hours in it than I ever did in 2042 lol

[spring cairn]

if launch is smooth i'll get it for sure

[shadow plover]

I just wish there were more vehicle focused maps already

[spring cairn]

firestorm soon

[languid meadow]

I need bigger maps

I hate all the ones in the beta because they're too small

[winter vessel]

i am curious on what they'll have in store for the story.

[shadow plover]

really don't care about the story lmao

[languid meadow]

it seems to be a semi continuation from 4?

I think at least

[surreal nest]

alright im gonna try to move my bios over if i dont respond in an hour it means my computer exploded and my room was reduced to ash

[languid meadow]

all I know is that NATO collapsed

[shadow plover]

[winter vessel]

YEAh

[spring cairn]

aslong as there's cool setpeices and shi i'll check out the story but yeah don't car

[shadow plover]

read a bit about the tool I mentioned first and it ought to go well

afaik there wont be a single player story?

[languid meadow]

It seems France and Spain both left NATO

[spring cairn]

for 6 ?

[shadow plover]

it's some evolving thing à la Halo Infinite multiplayer

[spring cairn]

there's a story planned

[shadow plover]

yes but not a single player one what I understood

[languid meadow]

there's a campaign

[spring cairn]

single player campaign planned

[shadow plover]

oh, wack

[spring cairn]

for launch

[shadow plover]

waste of resources

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/fish-bait-baiting-bass-fishing-gif-2140444873906627680

[surreal nest]

I gave up and started painting

[winter vessel]

With the basis of Pax Armata being a PMC trying to enforce global security, kinda makes me think of ATLAS from AW.

[languid meadow]

yeah I like the idea

they're backed by ex NATO and CSTO nations as well

since they have the fucking EUROCOPTER

LMFAO

in the promo they have the tiger

which is hilarious

[spring cairn]

pmc but with a nation tier budget

i'm sure the campaign will be good

i'm just not sure it'll be very long

probably extremely short is my call

[shadow plover]

I'd be surprised if it's even half decent

battlefield campaigns have been very poor since BC2

[winter vessel]

ahh Bad Company

been a minute since then

[spring cairn]

i mean i'll be happy with just eye candy which is all i ask from a bf campaign

[shadow plover]

I guess

[spring cairn]

i'll play it once then hop on mp anyway

[shadow plover]

I'll play it if there's one but I'm not expecting much

[spring cairn]

even if it's phenomenal

[languid meadow]

BF1 and 5 had good stories

3 was all hype moments and aura

4 was also hype moments and aura

[spring cairn]

i love 1 and 5 so much but they're so short

[shadow plover]

I really didn't like the disjointed stories thing in 1

[languid meadow]

it could've been better yeah

but what we got was pretty decent

[spring cairn]

1's intro mission is legendary tho

[shadow plover]

didn't buy 5 because the beta ran like shit on my machine and didn't really get interested in the WWII theme, but I heard the mp was very good for what it's worth

[spring cairn]

you have to admit

[languid meadow]

Last Tiger, and Through Mud and Blood are peak

waiter waiter more horrors of war

[spring cairn]

it had some rough times but in it's current state

the mp is good

except when there's a rfucking rocket planer

i am anger

kill all vehicles main

[languid meadow]

vics are 100% getting buffed after this beta lmfao

that or engie nerfed

they're kind of unusable rn

[winter vessel]

think it was a missed op. for them to focus on a singular storyline. I'd have looked forward to full on trench warfare and charges

[shadow plover]

yeah

or anything really

a 15 mintue to half an hour scrap with some random people really didn't spark any interest for me

I'm not sure if I ever bothered to play all of them

[shadow plover]

vics?

vehicles?

[spring cairn]

ye

[shadow plover]

I've felt quite potent with them tbh

[spring cairn]

i think tanks art ok

just helis and jets uh

yeah

they're there

for sure

[shadow plover]

IFVs wreck house

[spring cairn]

also the urban combat maps don't really do them any favour

[lament shoal]

So in the case of the exorcists, does successfully resisting the daemonic possession render the subject completely immune to the influence of chaos, or just highly resistant?

[shadow plover]

I've tried the heli twice, the flying didn't feel familiar so couldn't get much done. Jet felt quite weak though. Bombs could be good if I were a better bf pilot

[shadow plover]

highly resistant I'd wager though I've never looked into it that well

[lament shoal]

Thx

[shadow plover]

fully immune would be weird

[spring cairn]

i haven't touched any yet but since i lterally never had to bother swatting them out of the skies

something must stink

[celest dome]

Kinda like Blanks

[spring cairn]

and i'm already lvl 20 with all challenges done

so i played quite a bit

[celest dome]

So immune from straight Warp, but not necessarily from smart use of it

[shadow plover]

the anti air is very strong and readily available for all so they really can't do much most of the time I feel

[lament shoal]

Gotcha, ty

[spring cairn]

well they shouldn't let engie get both the rpg and anti-air launcher at the same time for sure for sure

that's just goofy

[shadow plover]

it's part of the problem yeah

but at the moment the gadget options are quite limited anyways

[celest dome]

Always good to remember that while a Blank will make you lose the control over the rubble you're throwing their way, it won't stop the rubble from going in the direction it was going

[storm jungle]

Its literally the same as every battlefield

american imperialism = good guys

[surreal nest]

I will never forgive GW for not giving us space rats

[storm jungle]

the plot is literally european nations leaving NATO and the US dealing with the fallout

which is like

fucking goofy as hell

[shadow plover]

it's stupid, I'm on the side of Pax for sure

[storm jungle]

BASED

[celest dome]

Hey we might see it ina couple of years

[surreal nest]

NOOOO AMERICA GOOD NOOOO RUSSIA WAS THE ONE THAT COMMITED THE HIGHWAY OF DEATH IN IRAQ NOOOOO

[storm jungle]

I do love Pax Armata because of like

"We cant have russians or evil arabs uhhh make it evil generic PMCs"

[spring cairn]

they didn't explicitly said pax did something wrong tho right ?

[storm jungle]

I mean

they will when the game comes out

making evil PMCs the antagonist is a FPS staple

[lament shoal]

Say if a psyker resisted a possession, would they also gain this ability?

[spring cairn]

i'm not counting on the game to be morally grey like that but so far we don't know

[surreal nest]

I cannot fucking BELIEVE that call of duty retextualized an american war crime as a Russian one for a plot in which they need Russia as an enemy

[spring cairn]

i hope a lil bit

[surreal nest]

It was INSANE

[winter vessel]

ehh america was kinda in the background for me, all i cared about was Dima in BF3

[storm jungle]

It took me like 20 years to realise its all just US propaganda

[shadow plover]

me when the yanks get too cocky

[storm jungle]

I mean yeah, but at the end of the day its the truth lol

[spring cairn]

so i can just spam pax armata did nothing wrong AND be right

cam on dice

[storm jungle]

Also like reminder

the department of defense funds most of these games lol

[surreal nest]

BOTTOMLESS BAG OF IEDS

[celest dome]

No, it's the way they're doing it that make them like that

[storm jungle]

or at the very least some branches of the government

since they give them credit on the ending text-rolls

lol

Its why even american villains in cod games are always a "rogue element"

[winter vessel]

Welp, i've had my fill for now. Gonna take a little break

[storm jungle]

God hold on i gotta get a thing

[winter vessel]

but damn 6 is a nice refresher, even in beta

[shadow plover]

also the best feature in 6 is that you can enable radio on your vehicles and it plays old BF 2 theme songs

[surreal nest]

I always thought it was overblown false correlation, until I realized that the current generation of COD fans actually dont mind how many children the US kills

[spring cairn]

at first i thought that the whole it's NATO thing would include europeans but alas

[celest dome]

Same thing for Top Gun and most films that put the US as the heroes

[plush mason]

they got to find jarheads for the meat grinder some how lmao

[storm jungle]

Principles

CIA

[spring cairn]

so far in the beta all NATO soldiers have american flags

[surreal nest]

The amount of helldiver 2 fans that talk about enlisting has me sobbing

[celest dome]

Lol

[shadow plover]

you can hear it briefly here

[storm jungle]

I mean

if they wanna die for their country its their choice i guess

I cant comment since im a muslim so

[winter vessel]

pantheon really went nowhere

[storm jungle]

real

[surreal nest]

I think COD cold war is the only COD game that somewhat made America look shady

[storm jungle]

Legit

[celest dome]

Does Turkey allow women in the army though ?

[storm jungle]

Yeah it does

tho its kinda iffy

[spring cairn]

didn't most of the black ops game made american look more than shady ?

[celest dome]

Restricted roles ?

[surreal nest]

My friends arm flew off from a drone, its just like helldivers 2 fr!

[winter vessel]

don't even keep track of COD anymore. wasn't there like a beavis and butthead skin?

[storm jungle]

KINDA.

Its usually always shifted towards evil russians or rogue american elements that dont represent the actual government

[celest dome]

Think so

[surreal nest]

I feel like black ops kinda gave an ends justify the means story

[storm jungle]

^

[celest dome]

And American Dad too

[storm jungle]

basically that yeah

[spring cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/beavis-and-butthead-call-of-duty-slap-kick-cornholio-gif-9478766975485797413

[plush mason]

the amount of people that failed to notice the 20 ton hammer with the word "we are fascists" hitting them in the head when ever they logged on and played is what makes me sob

[spring cairn]

real cod footage

[storm jungle]

"MK Ultra was not that bad because the russians brainwashed you mkay"

[winter vessel]

man...

[storm jungle]

but like theres a reason most cod game enemies are either

Russians
Evil Arabs
Generic Terrorists (bonus points if russian or arab)

[surreal nest]

COD cold war put you at the hands of MK ultra as a Russian victim, it felt like a pretty negative display for the US imo

[plush mason]

HD2 is so heavy handed and on the nose its comical and yet many still didnt get it

[storm jungle]

with Ghosts at least they made it generic evil hispanics i guess

[storm jungle]

MENENDEZ MY GOAT

[surreal nest]

Even let you kill americans at the end and nuke europe

[storm jungle]

🗣️

[winter vessel]

"martyr me...for cordis die"

[spring cairn]

man i didn't knew they managed to get rid of almost all of EU in NATO for bf6

[storm jungle]

To be fair on that one, they clearly display Perseus as a nutjob and the CIA characters literally say "the nukes we put across europe were for DEFENSE not OFFENSE."

[spring cairn]

kinda blows

[storm jungle]

well that and the ending is not canon

so 💀

[plush mason]

Tom Clancy games are based on his books so not much they can really do

[surreal nest]

I personally saw the CIA nuke defense plot as a way to make them look slimy

[storm jungle]

meant COD Ghosts sorry

In the guild I'm in, which is mostly Uk + smaller European country, we had a couple of American join, like back during the first Trump term.
And one of them had their little brother of 13-15 year old top who apparently revered the (US) Military and wanted to join, don't know what happened to that one

[plush mason]

oh

[surreal nest]

Our characters get pretty pissed off hearing about it

[winter vessel]

Honestly even as an american, i found betraying your CIA spooks to go back to the russians be my favorite ending in Cold War

[opaque coyote]

I LOVE PLAYING PROPAGANDA

[storm jungle]

Id agree but remember that at the end of the America always saves the day, which kinda pushes that narrative forward.

[opaque coyote]

WOOOO

[storm jungle]

Like one of your teammates is literally a Mossad agent

lol

[surreal nest]

Very much agree

[celest dome]

Mossad was only cool when they hunted Nazi

[green loom]

"Pax Armata are a mercenary army who wreak havoc without any regard for collateral"
Holy shit this sounds like someone I- Oh no

[surreal nest]

Even their most negative display of America still has them save the world and be heroes

[winter vessel]

"saves the day" my favorite interpretation of that

[opaque coyote]

CoD Cold War is kinda the only one that separates from that narrative.

Purely because the Russian side is the only ending that doesn't fuck you over.

[lament shoal]

Some 40k fans be like:

[storm jungle]

Yeah but you still destroy all of Europe

also uh

it makes Reagan look like a good guy

[opaque coyote]

YOU ARE OUT OF UNIFORM SOLDIER. WHERE IS YOUR POWER ARMOR??

[plush mason]

ghost recon wildlands had generic hispanic cartel as the main bad guy so that made me think of that

[spring cairn]

foolish hope that they don't make it so black and white like that

[storm jungle]

"We must protect the Free World from Perseus"

[celest dome]

Based

[opaque coyote]

[storm jungle]

literally the man behind Iran Contra

ok pal

[green loom]

Do we know where Liberation peak is in BF6

Funny name aside

[storm jungle]

Lmao i dont think so

[shadow plover]

Gibraltar

no wait no

wrong map

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/essp-galahad-slumber-party-advanced-warfare-cod-gif-25200193

[green loom]

Thought Gibraltar was Gibraltar

[shadow plover]

it's somewhere close to russia is my guess because there's cyrillic text on the store fronts iirc

[green loom]

Anyway my point is that Cairo/Gibraltar are placed nice enough to where they aren't just killing good white europeans

[storm jungle]

LMAO

ED

[plush mason]

yeah anything that does that has a 8/10 chance to just be US government propaganda

[storm jungle]

💀

[surreal nest]

Reagan was so comedically evil if he was a warhammer 40k villain it would be bad writing

[green loom]

Because they won't let you just kill europeans lol

[storm jungle]

Pretty much, because we do know they actually use these games to recruit people.

[spring cairn]

Tajikistan

[storm jungle]

You can literally apply most of the shit he did to some lore event with name changes and nobody would notice yeah

"A brave imperial hero took the fall guy and was sent to a Paradise World as punishment"

[surreal nest]

We LOVE THE US WE LOVE THE US

RECORD EVIL DOING

[plush mason]

yeah its why i can forgive so much when it comes to writing fictional villains, the real world ones are so much worse

to this day Reagan is worshiped and thanked for fucking up the whole country

[shadow plover]

got the itch again

[storm jungle]

Didnt Reagan like

literally ruin the entire US economy to what it is now

[plush mason]

yup

[storm jungle]

or was mostly responsible for it

oof

[spring cairn]

i'm trynna find info on pax armata but seems like i'll have to wait for release

[shadow plover]

as the saying goes, if somethings fucked up you can probably retrace the root cause back to reagan

[winter vessel]

Everyone loves a scapegoat

[storm jungle]

yeah fair enough lol

I mean

its not a scapegoat though

[plush mason]

him or Nixon

[storm jungle]

he literally did it

[surreal nest]

Pretty sure he nuked the education system too

[plush mason]

the 2 men that started almost all of modern day America's problems

[storm jungle]

You can be proud of your country while acknowldging most of its history sucks.

[celest dome]

A lot of the problems in the world stem from Reagan. Witht he Sub primes crash that stemmed from problems he did, the various South American drug cartels being set up...

[storm jungle]

its like how the US Army was responsible for like atrocities for most of its lifespans lol

[spring cairn]

like pax is called le bad in one of their trailer but it's by an in-game american news network so might just be in-game propaganda

das all i got

that and some goofy gamerant article

[languid meadow]

the trailer is shot like the civil war movie

[surreal nest]

But but the japanese would have never surrendered and and and and they dropped leaflets and and and and and the Japanese civilians are bloodthirsty animals who would fight to the last

[languid meadow]

so I bet the president is behind it

[plush mason]

for a country that spent over 100 years refusing to have any standing army we sure do have a long and bloody military history huh

[shadow plover]

well some of them sure don't

[winter vessel]

my great grandparents had to avoid said Japanese during their occupation of Manila

[surreal nest]

This is literally the best thing I have ever seen that is so fucking funny

[storm jungle]

Operation: Iraqi Freedom babeeeeeey

https://tenor.com/view/bf2-gif-22425842

[lament shoal]

I've got a plague marine one too lol

[winter vessel]

isn't there like a KT set coming with Night lords and Sororitas?

[storm jungle]

yeah with jumppacks

and uhhh

sororitas got swords i guess idk

[winter vessel]

kind of an odd pairing

to me at least

[storm jungle]

I mean

its kill-team

that checks out tbh

[surreal nest]

GRACE ME WITH IT

[storm jungle]

Servitors vs Tunnel Nids

[plush mason]

between Reagan Bush and now Trump America has earned the title nation of the dumbasses

[storm jungle]

GULF OF AMERICA

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/mine-battlefield2-gif-26146314

GET EM BOYS

[surreal nest]

No shot nightlords already got a killteam

[storm jungle]

Their killteam set was EXTREMELY popular

it was the most sold fucking box

[shadow plover]

MINE

[celest dome]

Worst KT pairing is Necron vs SM
And they've done it twice

[plush mason]

you will never find a culture more soaked in stupidity than America

[surreal nest]

Their individual box or killteam nightmare?

[celest dome]

I mean

Russia

[plush mason]

we idealise it ffs

[storm jungle]

their individual box

it was shown by GW

its hilarious

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/spec-ops-the-line-worried-scared-martin-walker-lugo-gif-6898044842207470095

[surreal nest]

Honestly deserved. They are pretty much perfect miniatures

[storm jungle]

fr fr

[shadow plover]

I've got them awaiting for a First Claw conversion

(it will take time)

[celest dome]

Do we have the Sister one too ?

[languid meadow]

I mean America, Russia, and England are up there together

[surreal nest]

I haven't painted my nightlords yet, so sad. By far my favorite models though

Actually kinda pissed because I accidentally gave my leader the generic black legion chest piece

[storm jungle]

lmao owned

[plush mason]

i know but with America we praise any act of stupidity as a virtue, at least most other culture chastise open stupidity to some extent

[spring cairn]

don't worry all of that is seeping out of the country worldwide

[celest dome]

Seeing that most country have their own brand of reality tv...

It's infectious

[plush mason]

ofc, humans are stupid

Americans just more so than most

[spring cairn]

since american culture and media is very strong it usually spreads whtver idiocy's going on there with it

[plush mason]

yup

[winter vessel]

well if it helps you sleep at night, okay then

[surreal nest]

Its so much worse than the nightlord specific one im so sad

[plush mason]

thanks post ww2 American domination of global media

[storm jungle]

Ooof

yeah that model still isnt too bad though

[celest dome]

Seeing the advent of AI, I feel like we're half a generation to being medically brain dead

[storm jungle]

I mean

look at the warhammer fandom

we are already there

[languid meadow]

no thanks

[storm jungle]

(us included)

[raven stone]

My new home is slowly falling into place

Feeling happy

[plush mason]

nice

[winter vessel]

flash

[surreal nest]

Yeah warhammer fans online legit have to be some of the dumbest people I have ever seen

[raven stone]

Braindead and brain rot are two different problems...

[storm jungle]

I wouldnt mind it as much if I didnt see bullshit like "Yeah we arent like Star Wars fans we are super friendly and nice-"

Motherfucker half of you are literally nazis

[winter vessel]

Seeing children getting hyped up on this at my store is amazing

[plush mason]

the fact this fucking meme evolved into a frankly well done animation series is still so confusing

[winter vessel]

they don't even know what gmod is

[raven stone]

Truly those are the ones who...have no life.

[raven stone]

Guilty of type 1

[surreal nest]

The whole fucking "ummmm actually there are BARELY any nazis in the hobby!"

[spring cairn]

nothing crazy, just one of the best multiplayer experience of the century

[lament shoal]

Ideally that's the way people should be lol

[surreal nest]

YOU ONLY SAY THAT IF ITS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE

[raven stone]

Funny in both the "laugh at them" sense and "fun in a purely imaginary sense"

[storm jungle]

LMFAO

[storm jungle]

SAME.

"Ive never seen any"

Sorry I must have imagined the ones that harass and threaten my queer friends my bad.

[plush mason]

every time i hear that i just so "if that was true GW wouldnt have to make public statements about not supporting irl fascism every few months"

[winter vessel]

sometimes i have to explain the parents on what S.T is and its origin because they can't quiet them down over the toy

[surreal nest]

Yeah I think the whole space marine propaganda and evil nature is super super fun, im a sucker for evil empires in sci fi

[surreal nest]

EXACTLY

[celest dome]

Some month ago in general they were arguing that there aren't any fascist/racist playing Dt cause there aren't really any here 💀

When each time one is found they just get thrown out instead

[languid meadow]

the billion chauvin names

[storm jungle]

WE LITERALLY BAN 1-2 OF THEM WEEKLY BRUH

[languid meadow]

The demon that is Tanner

[plush mason]

if a fandom has gotten so bad the company behind the product has to do PR damage control you know it has a problem

[storm jungle]

TWICE.

[plush mason]

yup

[celest dome]

Not more ?

[storm jungle]

All they can do tbh, GW actively avoids the "fascist" word since its bad for marketing.

[celest dome]

That Spanish one, the general warhammer is for everyone

[surreal nest]

I had an argument with that type of chud in general a long time ago. When I told him he is playing devils advocate he said "im not playing devils advocate....im saying the devil doesn't exist!"

In response to me saying there's profound racism in the community

[celest dome]

And was there not another one before

[storm jungle]

yeah and reminder that the "warhammer is for everyone" was during the BLM riots

so even more on point tbh

[sharp pollen]

oh... again...

[surreal nest]

Curious how all of the angry custodes retcon fans suddenly never heard about the other retcons that didn't involve women

Curious

[winter vessel]

""warhammer is for everyone" sounds like GW's version of "Trix are for kids"

[raven stone]

The Spanish Incident is a bit more unique in the sense GW hands were forced to do it because in Spain, there is no actual law banning Nazi symbols.

[arctic talon]

thats not true the best selling Killteam box ever was the Ork Kommandos vs DKOK

[surreal nest]

Does that count

[arctic talon]

they did get voted mini of the year for 40k though which was lame

[arctic talon]

Why wouldn't it

[raven stone]

And somehow tourney orgs probably don't have powers to enforce such a ban

[sharp pollen]

days without talking about fascist and nazists in 40k community: 0

[celest dome]

🚬

[surreal nest]

I just mean because it was the brand new launch box for the first rehaul of killteam

[storm jungle]

The best selling box was me selling YOUR FUCKING KIDNEYS

[languid meadow]

"fans" when you mention custodes dont have gene-seed

[arctic talon]

Idk I'd count it

jeans......

[raven stone]

I mean, not the hobby's fault.

If for whatever reason rice puddings are seen as beneficial to Far Right believers, they will co-opt Rice Puddings.

[surreal nest]

While I agree with your assement I also feel like your kidneys should still be sold

[misty vector]

They dont?

[queen laurel]

finished that and i'm gonna throw you to a fatalist with nothing but kulu yaku equipment

[arctic talon]

no

custodes are way more refined then using something as inefficent as geneseed

[raven stone]

Custodes are custom tailored

[arctic talon]

they do something to the baby

and genetically tear it down and rebuild it

[surreal nest]

Custodes came straight from the balls baby

[arctic talon]

as for what happens to the baby

[raven stone]

Geneseed is considered the mass manufactured factory method...

[arctic talon]

we dunno what happens to the baby

[storm jungle]

My favorite part was all the people that came out of the woodwork with the "BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SISTERS OF SILENCE WAAA"

Oh im sorry, where the fuck were you guys when we NEEDED YOU when nobody did anything for the SoS and they got forgotten so bad IRL it literally was written into their lore to explain why they werent around in 40k until Guilliman's return

[arctic talon]

beyond their genes get torn apart and redone

[misty vector]

Like a surgery?

[arctic talon]

No

[storm jungle]

Do you see those people around anymore? Of course you dont lol

[arctic talon]

its called Gene alchemy

and thats all we really know

but Custodes do not use seed

[surreal nest]

The people bringing up the SoS being underrepresented are so, so incredibly gaslighty

[plush mason]

im sure its something unbelievably horrible and cruel

[arctic talon]

I've always wanted more SoS stuff smh

don't bunch me up with them

[misty vector]

Ahhh mysterious

[surreal nest]

It was actually nauseating to see grifters sully their name and suddenly care about them to call GW out

[arctic talon]

too bad

grifters gona grift

[storm jungle]

"I care about female representation!"

Literally stop mentioning them afer 3 weeks

[lament shoal]

My gf is at the grand opening of a warhammer store in her area lol

Nughtlord….

[surreal nest]

I think they are so cool and are in fact underrepresented

[arctic talon]

Nughtlord peak

[storm jungle]

Nughtlord........

[raven stone]

It's a bit of column A and column B.

I don't care about femtodes and I still find it sad Sisters of Silence were ignored for what is actually pretty over the top and fitting lore.

[surreal nest]

Nughtlord

[winter vessel]

The Nughtlords...lead by preemrich Kurnryd Krunz

[arctic talon]

the best SoS were treated was when they got their 7e rules

lol

[storm jungle]

yeah because you arent suppose to care about femtodes, its the most harmless lore change ever

[arctic talon]

regarding GW/FW treatment

Femstodes is a literal nothing change

lol

[storm jungle]

its just another unisex army that GW has been adding since post-2018

[plush mason]

remember when the grifters tried to make the SoS sign language a DEI thing?

[storm jungle]

which is a good thing

yall mfers dont know past 40k armies

which was just uhhh

[surreal nest]

AHHHHH

[storm jungle]

20 guys

white

[plush mason]

thank fuck it blew up in their faces so fast

[arctic talon]

half naked muscular men

[surreal nest]

My brain flooding with buried thoughts about the reactions I have seen to the SoS cinematic

Dear god

[arctic talon]

which one

[storm jungle]

Tithes

[arctic talon]

from Tithes?

Yeah

[surreal nest]

Yeah

[arctic talon]

Aura

™

literally

[queen laurel]

Yeah because I'm gonna be honest I don't think I want to

[surreal nest]

Sign language woke! Sign language woke!

[storm jungle]

people were screenshotting every part to make the femtodes look bad when shes like a fucking greek goddess looking statue woman

[surreal nest]

Fellas is it leftist to communicate

[winter vessel]

and a helluva jawline

[storm jungle]

Yes.

[raven stone]

The really sad thing is - the sculpts are still very heavily male based in terms of body proportions (os so I am told). Well, SoS/SoB excepted ofc

[storm jungle]

Woke up this morning

got myself

some gabagool

[surreal nest]

Actually yes lmfao

[arctic talon]

thats bcs GW just uses the same body

for them

[languid meadow]

well from what we've seen in their armour they look the same, plus the change is still new and idr if custodes got any new models since then

[arctic talon]

same applies to Wych's and howling banshees

[raven stone]

Sorry should have been clear, is more for things like Guard

[arctic talon]

where the bodies are all female body proportions

[surreal nest]

God imagine skaven in 40k let's all close our eyes and imagine that

[arctic talon]

yeah for guard its just a case of GW using the same body

[arctic talon]

thats just the Imperium of Man

comical levels of racism included

[surreal nest]

Ok actually incredibly true

[winter vessel]

describes the imperium

[raven stone]

Actual Skaven as Beastmen could work though

[arctic talon]

The Imperium of Man and Orks are literally just the 2 skaven bits

[surreal nest]

As a collector of both armies I enjoy the similarities

[arctic talon]

Orks got the funny unstable tech

the IMperium got the rest

fucks sake we even got a council of 13 for both of them

LOL

[queen laurel]

That's just orks

they both have unstable hierarchies they use very rickety technology and they speak funny and everyone likes the way they speak

[outer wave]

Cant we call just get along and agree that big honkin' muscular women, no matter the lore, are pretty top notch?

[raven stone]

I will be honest despite being written by a British company.

The structure of the Imperium is actually most closely aligned with the Spanish Empire.

[queen laurel]

as much as i love the rats many of the things that make them good are taken by a lot of factions

[surreal nest]

Ok you have convinced me I will paint my skaven and not my orks

[raven stone]

No because some people cannot stop using the world around them to define who they are/shitpost.

[arctic talon]

Skaven are uniquely WHFB/AoS imo

the same way 40k Orks are uniquely like

40k

Orruks and Orcs are both a much more serious take

lol

Orcs especially are just

[storm jungle]

NO.

HOCUS POCUS AND FAKE NEWS.

[surreal nest]

I fucking hate orruks

[winter vessel]

enter the Primarch GF subreddit also RIP to the founder.

[celest dome]

Skaven don't make sense in post Industrial settings

[arctic talon]

big murdering giant horde

[surreal nest]

Holy shit orruks make me so mad

[arctic talon]

I like Orruks

the naming sucks

but I like everything else lol

[surreal nest]

They are so ugly and lanky

[rose thorn]

🤨

[arctic talon]

Those are Kruleboyz

[outer wave]

Erm, lets say, hypothetically, you are fake news....

[rose thorn]

???

[arctic talon]

the Ironjaws are fucking henched

[surreal nest]

Oh

[arctic talon]

lol

[queen laurel]

yeah but the most serious are definitely orcs

Like your chances of talking to an iron jaw and living is way higher than trying to talk to even a normal orc

[rose thorn]

Lmao

[surreal nest]

I thought iron jaws were just called orcs

[rose thorn]

Kruleboyz and Ironjawz are both orruks

[rose thorn]

No

[plush mason]

little else is more hot than a women that can crush my skull like a grape with one hand frfr

[arctic talon]

Nah Orruks is just the copyrightable™ term GW uses

[rose thorn]

He’s so sick lol

[arctic talon]

the squig

is the best part

[surreal nest]

Ok so all orcs are orruks in AoS?

[rose thorn]

I wish they painted his model like his rules

[rose thorn]

Yes

[surreal nest]

Ok that makes sense

I love orruks then!

[arctic talon]

but I don't like Kruleboyz either

tbh

[lament shoal]

Made this for valentine's

[arctic talon]

LOL

[plush mason]

i love the squidvil

[outer wave]

With her thighs but yes!

[arctic talon]

They're too tall and lanky

but I get thats the appeal of them

[surreal nest]

THANK YOU

[arctic talon]

they're weird creepy swamp orcs lol

[surreal nest]

No yeah I love their theming

[rose thorn]

Technically they can be called

[surreal nest]

I just dont like their sculpts personally

[queen laurel]

the one on the left that's an iron jaw the one on the right that's a kruleboy which the one you hate and is more tolkien

[rose thorn]

Gorruks and morruks

[languid meadow]

This netcode is gonna make me kill myself

[rose thorn]

Respectively

[arctic talon]

thats

[languid meadow]

oops wrong channel

[arctic talon]

I'm gona choose to ignore that

LOL

[arctic talon]

lol

[rose thorn]

I’m brining KBz to my narritive campaign lol

[languid meadow]

I thought I was in another text chanell fuckkk

[queen laurel]

ooh nice

[surreal nest]

I do really like the drummer though

Like a lot

[raven stone]

Nothing compromised all good lol

[queen laurel]

yeah that's bubbok for ya

[arctic talon]

tbh there's like

nothing wrong with the Kruleboyz sculpts from a technical or aesthetic standpoint

just not for me lol

[surreal nest]

They are just so boring

[rose thorn]

Iggak Chainshaka da taka of kings bout to hit da field

[rose thorn]

Gutrippaz are dirty gross guys who live in mud, they are the best lmao

[queen laurel]

i mean that's the point

All of their equipment are replaceable because they fight dirty and they cover things with poison and stuff and they are all about being smart

[lament shoal]

The squig shields are funny lol

[queen laurel]

Because a weapon that can be taken by the enemy is no good for them so you know just get a very basic armor and stick

[surreal nest]

Yeah but skaven models are plentiful and simple but really fun

[rose thorn]

Fun fact! They move!

And laugh

[surreal nest]

Every skaven clanrat has its own little thing

[rose thorn]

When you bang on the shield it makes a laughing sound

[surreal nest]

Ok thats gas

[queen laurel]

i thought that it's because of the hallucinogenic gas

and poisons they make

[rose thorn]

Both

They unironically do that tho

[raven stone]

If I may just randomly say one thing positive about the introduction of T'au into 40k.

As much as it is almost too odd to have them as goody two shoes (on paper at least)...

...I sincerely appreciate the fact that having a faction that knows how to weaponise diplomacy introduces plots that wouldn't be possible with any other 40k factions. Namely diplomatic intrigue and skullduggery.

[rose thorn]

I also love these guys

[surreal nest]

Ok im looking at more kruleboy models and im starting to love them

[arctic talon]

the size of stormcasts is so goddamn funny lol

[arctic talon]

compared to chaos warriors/chosen

[rose thorn]

Kruleboyz rock

[surreal nest]

These are probably the coolest models I have ever seen

[arctic talon]

the don't smh

[rose thorn]

It’s so fucking good

[arctic talon]

they make my forest

into a shitty swamp

how dare they

!!!!

[rose thorn]

Boltboyz

[queen laurel]

man-skewer boltboyz

[rose thorn]

Did you see the beast skewa?

[surreal nest]

Yo what model is that??

[plush mason]

i wonder if the Stormcast dude from that one hammer and bolter episode has a mini/ruleset. the one in the purple armor

[rose thorn]

Chaos chosen

[queen laurel]

Chaos chosen

[rose thorn]

He’s a character-

[plush mason]

he is

[arctic talon]

no mini or rules

but he's got lore

[rose thorn]

He has his own book series

[rose thorn]

He has rules

[arctic talon]

where

[rose thorn]

They are in a WD

[arctic talon]

oh

[surreal nest]

Holy fuck

[arctic talon]

yeah that tracks

yeah no

[rose thorn]

Along side the legends Astral Templars AoR

[arctic talon]

slaves to darkness

[plush mason]

ok so he is a character in both senses of the word lol

[arctic talon]

have fucking crazy drip

[queen laurel]

yeah AOS stuffs look good

[arctic talon]

lol

[surreal nest]

WHY DID I CHOOSE SKAVEN MAN

[arctic talon]

BECAUSE THEY'RE COOL

SMH

[rose thorn]

You, can have multiple armies-

[arctic talon]

Jokes aside Skaven and Cities of Sigmar

[languid meadow]

Chorfs have consumed me

[arctic talon]

by far both need the most work

to modernize for GW

lol

[surreal nest]

Im already in the process of building 3!

[arctic talon]

Skaven when they're done

will look great

but rn they're in that transition phase

lol

[rose thorn]

Ogors refresh soon

[plush mason]

rip your bankaccount

[queen laurel]

you dare disrespect Vizzik Skour, Prophet of the Horned Rat

[rose thorn]

[queen laurel]

you disappoint me

[surreal nest]

I have a full 3K point plus Imperial Guard army, building up my skaven, and im starting a thousand sons collection

But I plan to sell my imperial guard

[plush mason]

now start building MTG decks to be a true debt maxxer

[arctic talon]

MTG

is more expensive then 40k

[surreal nest]

I love that model

[arctic talon]

[plush mason]

yes

[arctic talon]

I wish I was fucking joking

[surreal nest]

Im really excited to paint my rat ogres

[arctic talon]

the new rat ogres

are so cool lol

[surreal nest]

I love rats!!!!

[surreal nest]

I really really really want the new ratling gunners

Thats my next buy

[queen laurel]

You don't have to tell me twice

[arctic talon]

They're so good

ALl the new skaven stuff

is so insanely good

[queen laurel]

especially this abomination

[arctic talon]

which really hurts when the rest of the old skaven stuff

is fucking prehistoric

[queen laurel]

i want to know what substance the guy was on when he made this

[surreal nest]

Honestly my favorite skaven model are the Warplock Jezzails

Right next to stormvermin

[queen laurel]

i love the monster models personally

[queen laurel]

hellpit, rat ogors, stormvermin, and brood terrors

[surreal nest]

They are also insanely fun rules wise

[surreal nest]

Brood terrors go so, so hard

[arctic talon]

I want GW to finally release that damn spider incarnite

smh

I know the first round of them sold like shit

but cmon

[queen laurel]

that

is grots right

[arctic talon]

no

its a generic one

[queen laurel]

or is there another spider

[arctic talon]

No incarnates are generic

or at least the single one we got was

lol

[queen laurel]

i see

[celest dome]

From that rumour engine ?

[arctic talon]

yeah

it even got art

[celest dome]

Does make one wonder if they even printed those or not

[arctic talon]

Well
