[nova scaffold]

yes

[celest dome]

But Anteaters are mammals...

[nova scaffold]

there is other animals in quar

[nova scaffold]

cows are mammals so you saying its cannibalism?

[celest dome]

because birds dont exist
and mammals
That can be read as Bird don't exist
And mammals don't exist either

[nova scaffold]

oh a gammar error

mb

mammals do exist

famously the pykpyk squirrels

and no they dont eat it

[median star]

are navigators on mechanicus ships ever also borged like the rest of the tech priest or are how would that work are navigators even allowed augments w their near alien physiology they sometimes have

[celest dome]

Navigator and Psyker usually don't have augments, much less high tech ones

As it cause them to weaken their link to the Warp

[median star]

arent their also specific augments that can inturn boost their psykic presence or better channel it id assume tho to be a lot rarer

[hallow saddle]

If u can justify it to make a story or character work then yes

If u wanna have a psyker brain in a jar it could work

Like I'm imagining a heretic psyker that has Blackstone augments that can be used to focus their power

And navigators are so secretive and set apart from everyone else that I'm sure you could have a very augmented navigator that's almost fused with the ship through bionics etc

Most people would never know

[near wasp]

They are called psi baffles I think

[celest dome]

There are per se

But they're much rarer

Like think of the rarity of Psykers

Now think of them being discriminated

Then add to that that the tech isn't really common too and not really researched into

So you get Augments; which are already rare

And you get exceptionally rare stuff

[winged jacinth]

There's rare psyker boosting augments and very common psyker head explosion augments

I think its not uncommon for a navigator to be wired to their throne but that's really the voidship not augments

They can usually still "see" even without eyes and im actually not sure ive ever seen a psyker with a prosthetic limb

[young pecan]

Wonder if Big E could ever be affected positively by an augment

Likely no

[opaque coyote]

There's the weird fucking

Cyber-eye he has

[nova scaffold]

i had a headcanon theory that fidwog and space wolves somehow get alone well because they're both alcoholics

[celest willow]

how correct would yall say this is

[sharp pollen]

incomplete

[nova scaffold]

is redditor, anger issue, autism and the last is a deviant art user

[celest willow]

reddit is the seven sins rapped up together

[sharp pollen]

ah, you mean the sins

[nova scaffold]

lol the stench will cause normies to instantly kill itself

[celest willow]

or this?

[celest dome]

Pride to Slaanesh

[nova scaffold]

envy is for slaanesh

[celest dome]

Envy shared between Tzeench and Slaanesh

[nova scaffold]

especially for the emperor childrens

[celest willow]

tzeench is about hording knowledge and back stabbing

slaanesh is less focused on it

[nova scaffold]

the emperor children is always envy of others

[celest dome]

Nah Envy is still strong for Slaanesh

Even greed tbh

[nova scaffold]

like if you slightly acheve something

congrats

your skull will now be some emperor children piss bowl

[celest willow]

I feel like gluttony is more fitting for slaanesh over greed

[celest dome]

Both apply

[celest willow]

slaanesh is less about hordeing and more about always wanting more

[celest dome]

No it's pretty much both

[nova scaffold]

can i be honest

[celest willow]

ok but if we did this fairly slaanesh is gonna be all of them

[nova scaffold]

i hate the regular sized grey knights

like i natrually assume to be like in ternimator armor

[celest willow]

tzeench madness

[celest dome]

Pretty much

[nova scaffold]

its kinda like seeing dwane the rock johnsone being 5ft 3 inch

[celest willow]

a rule am using is just whoever embodies something the most

not the side gigs

[nova scaffold]

like them being ternimator sized armor is acceptable

like how it should be

[celest willow]

seeing them with terminator heads feels wrong

[young pecan]

I feel like attributing the seven sins to the chaos gods is really really reductive

[nova scaffold]

like its way too small

[celest willow]

reductive yes fun also yes

[young pecan]

The chaos gods are closer to pantheons like the Greek pantheon than the sins

[young pecan]

That's fair

[nova scaffold]

i mean like big as ternimators

[young pecan]

Have your fun 💪

[celest willow]

the more you look into slaanesh the more lust feels like it is just a side upgrade

it is just mainly gluttony

[celest dome]

Khorne: Wrath, Pride
Nurgle: Sloth, Gluttony
Slaanesh: Pride, Lust, Gluttony, Envy, Greed
Tzeentch: Envy, Greed, Pride

[nova scaffold]

like this is acceptable scale and looks

[celest dome]

Slaanesh initially was very much what Christian Evil is

So it represent quite well the 7 evils, as all of these are about excess

[nova scaffold]

good question

can warhammer play on massive map

[young pecan]

Slaanesh is probably the most diverse of the chaos gods

[nova scaffold]

like is almost 2x times bigger then the skirmish size map

[celest willow]

also prop the second worst to deal with

[opaque coyote]

Nah wdym it's all about the drugs and sex

Clearly

[nova scaffold]

and ACDC

[young pecan]

Slaanesh could just as easily compete with Nurgle over poor peoples' favor as he could compete with Tzeentch for influential people

Crazy

[celest dome]

Yes, but it's more rarely done cause you then need to have a lot of movement rounds and stuff

[opaque coyote]

And not the crushing flaws of hedonism and excess

[opaque coyote]

Fits given her main domain

He wants everything

[celest willow]

yeah but what if they couldnt share sin

[nova scaffold]

i mean my table is way over 6ft long and i come up a special rules for my quar wargame (that is sadly canceled in my birthday)

[opaque coyote]

Would argue all the Chaos Gods represent it

[young pecan]

That makes it much more difficult

[opaque coyote]

Rather than merely Slaanesh

[celest dome]

Slaanesh take all for the most part

[celest willow]

so this

[celest dome]

Even Sloth for Nurgle isn't really that correct

[nova scaffold]

the rule is in the movement phase, all units has unlimited movement untill is in the BATTLEFIELD ZONE which is basically the combat zone

untill the movement phase is over

[celest willow]

ok think of it has who amplifies it the most

nurgle is about stagnation

slaanesh isnt

[celest dome]

Nurgle doesn't amplify sloth, apathy sure, but not really sloth

[opaque coyote]

I think the Chaos Gods just have a bunch of overlap.

Which is why they fucking hate each other

[young pecan]

Yeah

[celest willow]

you could argue apathy is a form of sloth

[young pecan]

Nurgle is still very active even in his apathy

[celest dome]

In Scourge of fate, they reference the seven prime sins, as the 7 virtues of Slaanesh

[young pecan]

Decay and regrowth is a constantly moving cycle

[celest dome]

It's just a game

[young pecan]

So sloth isn't very accurate

[celest willow]

ok but I cant see slaanesh using sloth

[opaque coyote]

It's the equivalent of 4 children fighting over a bunch of toys

[celest dome]

It truly

is

[celest willow]

slaanesh feasts on the souls of its worshippers if they do nothing

[opaque coyote]

"NO, HE'S PART OF MY DOMAIN!"

"NOO MINE MINE MINE!"

[celest willow]

seems counter intuitive

[young pecan]

Tzeentch is the only child who shares toys with the others because it's fun to see how they use them

[opaque coyote]

Slaanesh is more about the constant pursuit if anything

[celest dome]

And Nuffle when they get involved is like the Nerds changing the rules/game to make their Jock friend/brother play with them

[young pecan]

That's a funny thought

[opaque coyote]

The pursuit towards perfection or conpletition

The best art, the most food, the most varied experiences

Etc.

[celest dome]

In that case, it's more Slaanesh being a parasite on all of chaos

[celest willow]

ok ykw imma just let yall vote for it

[celest dome]

As all chaotic pursuit is a path of excess

[celest willow]

who gets greed out of the 4

[celest dome]

Slaanesh

[young pecan]

Slaanesh

[opaque coyote]

It fits their nature.

They love excess

[celest dome]

||You're not gonna like the answers||

[young pecan]

Tzeentch will allow himself to lose if it benefits himself in the long run(?)

[celest willow]

ok who gets sloth

[young pecan]

Slaanesh

[celest dome]

Slaanesh

[languid meadow]

believe it or not Slaanesh

[young pecan]

I PROMISE we're not trolling LMAO

[opaque coyote]

Slaanesh

But it also applies to Tzeentch on some level. Magnus's folly in trying to gain more knowledge.

Honestly I believe Tzeentch encapsulates pride more ironically enough. All the major disasters of the Thousand Sons are due to Hubris

Tzeentch's main thing is leading people into traps and pulling the rug under them

[celest dome]

But Pride is much more pointed in the case of Fulgrim and the rest of Slaanesh

[opaque coyote]

Trickery

[celest willow]

thats what am saying but it is 3 over 2

ok wrath

[outer wave]

Slaanesh embodies 6 of the 7 deadly sins, wrath being the only one they dont really embody

[celest dome]

Slaanesh

[young pecan]

You could argue that the latter of them losing is because they went AGAINST Tzeentch's intended use of his blessings and got greedy

[celest dome]

Khorne does not care for wrath

only bloodshed

[celest willow]

no who embodies it the most not who cares the most

[celest dome]

Then Slaanesh

[opaque coyote]

Again, I don't really think the Chaos Gods really apply to the seven deadly sins.

Because they intentionally have a lot of overlap and conflicting concepts. That's why they fight each other.

[celest dome]

https://tenor.com/view/wheeze-laugh-gif-14359545

[opaque coyote]

I guess you can say it's

Chaotic?

[celest dome]

Slaanesh seeing all the 7 Sins

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/745324840097153167/1401992025380753619/tumblr_owue0he7k91s1oat1o1_640.webp

[opaque coyote]

ba dum tss

[young pecan]

Does Khorne not actually care for wrath though?

[celest dome]

Only bloodshed

[opaque coyote]

He does

[young pecan]

One of the big ways he converts people (subconsciously at least) is preying on those who are wrathful

I feel that wrath does actually apply to him

[opaque coyote]

Khorne is about all forms of wrath tbh

[celest dome]

Be it done in wrath, or joy

[opaque coyote]

Whether it's the screaming and shouting

[celest dome]

Khorne is war

[opaque coyote]

Or the calm "I will dismantle you and ruin your life"

[celest dome]

Khorne is combat

It does not care for rime or reason

[outer wave]

I would personally say he does care about anger; while bloodshed is the ultimate goal, his boons typically give you rage and anger, as well as the fact that he feeds off that emotion

[young pecan]

But he does amplify rage and prey on people who let it control them

[outer wave]

^

[celest dome]

So for example, if you have a duel, between 2 Master warriors.
Their competivness and search for excelency will empower Slaanesh.
But the blood shed will empower Khorne

[young pecan]

You can make the argument that he does care about it, at least to some important extent

[celest dome]

He use wrath

[celest willow]

even if he doesnt wrath is a by product of khorne

[celest dome]

But he also use bloodlust

[young pecan]

Especially seeing as many of his followers are mindless raging idiots...

[celest dome]

Should we put lust then too 🤷

[celest willow]

slaanesh can avoid warth when it needs to but khorne cannot

[outer wave]

Ngl though, an apathetic Khornate could be interesting to explore

Someone that just murders but doesnt feel much for it as a whole

[celest willow]

a slaanesh follow may sugar you up with words but a khornate follower is just gonna cut you in half

[celest dome]

Fantasy had a character that was just happy to slaughter, no wrath at all

[outer wave]

Really now?

[languid meadow]

whimsy

[celest dome]

That's only cause Khorne dislike trickery

[celest willow]

and thus he resorts to wrath

[celest dome]

Cause human are easy wrathful

[celest willow]

khorne without wrath is like british food

[opaque coyote]

I think the like

Zen Berserkers are kind of an example

But that's less apathy and more

Enlightenment

With bloodshed

[celest willow]

alot of khornate follower are apathetic if you listen to their speeches

[opaque coyote]

The eightfold path

[outer wave]

Do we have an example of a Berzerker that's achieved Zen in some capacity? I think the only one I could think of is the one that feeds his enemies' corpses to man eating plants

[celest willow]

most give up at trying to pretend to be the good guys and just kill for the hell of it

[opaque coyote]

Which as a side note is a metal as fuck concept

[opaque coyote]

Kharn

He doesn't really scream angrily anymore

Just kills

It is his only purpose

[outer wave]

I see

"Samurai" Berzerkers I think would be cool to explore

[opaque coyote]

Katanas

Yaass

[outer wave]

Not just that, but them trying to overcome the influence of the Nails

Failing to do so means you must be killed

[celest willow]

in a way khrone does embody apathy it is kind of his end goal in a way which is ironic

[outer wave]

Sort of like Masters Executioners or whatever those CSM units are called, but more focusing their rage into a single swipe

[celest willow]

CHAT

I HAVE THEORY

[outer wave]

Basically duelists to the extreme and only concern themselves with duels

[young pecan]

Bloodlust doesn't mean you're popping a chub at the sight of blood though

[celest dome]

Anger is to Khorne what Sex is to Slaanesh

[celest willow]

hear me out what if most necrons lack sentience bc most where blanks

[storm jungle]

They lack sentience because the c'tan sucked our their souls, this is mentioned in their codexes.

[celest dome]

Blanks are sentient though

[celest willow]

||and thus khorne does win wrath||

[storm jungle]

the nobles also did this knowingly

(also blanks can have a ton of personality)

[celest willow]

aw

[young pecan]

Bequin is a good example

[celest dome]

Cup of tanna sir

[celest willow]

yeah but robotic blanks

[storm jungle]

Yeah but they arent blanks

[celest willow]

kinda feels like a necron

well damn

[storm jungle]

also why make blanks

when you got blackstone

[celest willow]

;-;

[celest dome]

Do you think they were trying to do Pariah cause they work similarly to the Blackstone ?

[outer wave]

I wish Pariahs were still a thing in Necron lore

[young pecan]

What are the ways you can fully destroy a necron?

[outer wave]

Destroying their base of operations where they can peacefully regenerate back is one way

You could make them inert by taking out their head pharon/overlord

[young pecan]

Couldn't you also damage what allows them to teleport back for regeneration?

[outer wave]

I guess you could

[young pecan]

I'm guessing hitting the base is a lot more reliable though

[celest willow]

pretty sure if you keep killing a necron it can eventually run out of power and die for good but I dunno who told me that

[storm jungle]

Thats not a thing no

[celest dome]

By using Overkill

Wait would it be Overkill in that case

[storm jungle]

the only way to perma-destroy a necron is make sure its remains where it gets restored in a tombworld's core is destroyed

its Minecraft mob-spawner logic

[celest willow]

then what was that with the death mark fighting a salamander

[storm jungle]

What is what with it

[celest willow]

why was the death mark afraid of the salamander

[storm jungle]

Szeras literally outright says hes not gonna repair him because he failed his mission lol

and he wasnt afraid

[outer wave]

Okay, so I know what kinda response Im gonna get, but why is it when I see those 40k cinematics, necron warriors and destroyers just die and dont teleport back or whatever?

[storm jungle]

he just got caught by surprise

[celest willow]

yeah I call that scared

[outer wave]

Wouldnt they regenerate on the spot and get back up?

[celest willow]

I honestly felt bad for bro

[young pecan]

Tecknickully minecraft mob spawners are different because they break the laws of thermodynamics by constantly creating new mass instead of regenerating ☝️

[storm jungle]

He was half-torn apart, I doubt it

[storm jungle]

Literally just an animation thing

and like, most people dont bother because its a very "nerdy" detail

[opaque coyote]

Time to make a Necron farm

[outer wave]

40K IS A NERDY DETAIL

[storm jungle]

SOME official animations do show it off like Tithes, but even then its here and there

[opaque coyote]

Free Necrodermis

[storm jungle]

its the same as like uh

[outer wave]

Thats so weird

[storm jungle]

how people can just dodge gauss cannon shots

because 1 shot and our protagonist is dead

lmao

[opaque coyote]

I always wonder

[storm jungle]

necrons get nerfed a ton in lore/when facing off against people

because otherwise everyone dies

[opaque coyote]

Can Gauss rifles like

Disintegrate things partially

[storm jungle]

No lol

[opaque coyote]

Damn

[storm jungle]

unless its like something huge

then it needs concentrated fire

[celest willow]

CAUSE THOU PLOT DEMANDS

[rocky gale]

Or a sister with faith

[storm jungle]

thats regeneration

unrelated thing

[outer wave]

Garbage

[opaque coyote]

Yeah I thought of like "maybe there could be a scene where a Gauss weapon disintegrates somebody's arm but not the whole body"

[outer wave]

Lemme see a necron swarm regenerate!

[storm jungle]

Nah if its a person you are fucked

[celest willow]

a necron death is a big deal in lore but when your trying to milk the human factions you gotta play a little pretend

[storm jungle]

marines only tank maybe 2-4 shots because plot/thick armor

[young pecan]

I love that even scarabs are immensely deadly

These are the mf repair creatures and they shred you

[storm jungle]

forces are few-

[outer wave]

Im gonna fanon that the necrons are just fuckin' with the protags a bit and letting them have a win or two

[storm jungle]

Also notice how the entire scarab swarm just largely ignores the charging marines

[opaque coyote]

Smh they should've gone the way of the daleks.

Basically, their lasers can actually just instantly destroy anything.

But due to their extreme sadism. They made it so that it just barely kills you. So you suffer in agony instead.

[storm jungle]

if they didnt they'd all be fucking dead

[celest willow]

says whats worse being a necron slave or being part of the under hive

[storm jungle]

Both is miserable

[opaque coyote]

I can imagine some Necrons that really hate organic life would do this

[storm jungle]

this is like asking "shot in the balls or shot in the dick"

[celest willow]

ok but if you had to pick

[storm jungle]

Probably necron

[opaque coyote]

I would rather shoot myself

[storm jungle]

because im mindless

[celest dome]

Necron I guess

[storm jungle]

and i dont think anything

lol

[celest willow]

balls

[opaque coyote]

...hopefully

[young pecan]

Why did they do this

[outer wave]

I think Necrons would treat me better than Necromunda

Or underhive

[young pecan]

Was there anything behind the marines to destroy or repair

Or is it for le plot

[nova scaffold]

can we agree that beting in sport should be illegal

[opaque coyote]

There is the possibility that every Necron warrior is still aware. They just can't express it.

[young pecan]

Wtf no

[nova scaffold]

or gambling in general

[celest dome]

Why for ?

[young pecan]

WTF NO

[celest willow]

how bad are necron slave worlds?

[opaque coyote]

Nah I love gambling

[celest dome]

It's a revenue stream for the state and the sporting federation

[celest willow]

cause i never really read that much about them

[nova scaffold]

iits sad and predatory, like its increadabily easy to be in debt

[opaque coyote]

95% of gamblers quit before they hit it big

[storm jungle]

Id agree

but also seeing those dumb idiots suffer is funny

[opaque coyote]

[storm jungle]

humans are fucking morons

i want all casino to be closed because too much dumb fucks being in debt and literally is just rigged

[outer wave]

Like DLCs and whatever

[celest dome]

Only betting and gambling is soaring though

[opaque coyote]

Jokes aside. I do agree that gambling is generally bad.

But it's something that can't really be illegalized. Because then people would just do it anyways

[celest willow]

nah am sure our species is def gonna improve in the next decade trust guys !!!

[opaque coyote]

It's like how prohibition failed miserably

[celest dome]

Hey, i'll be surprised if we're still here in 10 years

[young pecan]

Guys what is your favorite dish from Israel

[opaque coyote]

In fact, a lot don't want it to stop

[young pecan]

I'll start, mine is falafel

[celest willow]

best thing to do is make it less socially acceptable

[opaque coyote]

...I like Hummus

[celest willow]

ground level rage bait

[opaque coyote]

Problem is that it seems somewhat ingrained in our minds

[nova scaffold]

like their is a guy who win in a casino and yet the place refuse to pay even tho he won legit

[young pecan]

Is it rage bait or is it commentary

[opaque coyote]

So we'd have to defy literal instinct

[nova scaffold]

[storm jungle]

Lmfao you dickhead

anyway my favorite israeli meal is turkish tea

I MEAN

Israeli tea

[young pecan]

[celest willow]

oh you where being sarcastic you got my arab genes tweakin lol

am egyptian

[opaque coyote]

...so does that mean that you took the bait

[celest willow]

even if the bait angers me I do not want to give them the satisfaction of knowing so

it gives me inner peace

[young pecan]

I lied my favorite aforementioned dish is Moussaka

Okay I'm done

[celest willow]

I hate that dish so much

why do people like baked egg plant

it has the feel of a really fibrous wet sponge

[young pecan]

Really? It looks kinda appetizing

Oh yeah the texture of eggplant sucks

Other than that it sounds like it tastes good

[celest willow]

egg plant is really good in baba ganoush

but you gotta char not bake it

[nova scaffold]

what one thing yall want it to be illegal

video game gambling

[nova scaffold]

its actualy just a battery powered dog that is from alibaba for 5 dollars and all it does is just squeekes and moving slightly

[celest willow]

eh it isnt that bad as a novelty item I just blame the idiots buying it

[nova scaffold]

like its straight up a scam

and they get slightly better gear

[nova scaffold]

meanwhile to be a fidwog miner is to be experinced in training and be a rhyfler for years

so technically fiddy are more experinced

especially in experinced

[crystal forum]

during vraks the krieg engineers were involved in sabotaging enemy tunneling attempts

and even managed to breach some bunkers using tunnels themselves

they way they're dressed and equipped is akin to WW1 trench raiding parties

[nova scaffold]

meanwhile fidwog miner do use the tactic of digging under a trenches and blow it up with sheer amount of explosive

and practically do the same

they do go behind enemy line and sabotage

[nova scaffold]

lets talk about the weapons and equipment

like the shotguns

[crystal forum]

they're shotguns

what more is there to say

[nova scaffold]

like whats the differnece aganst the Twyrf FF-10

its a drum mag fed automatic 10 gauge shotgun

[crystal forum]

the difference is the krieg one doesn't have pointless fluff lore. it just looks cool and is a shotgun

[nova scaffold]

sometimes a equipment is important for a rhyfler

[crystal forum]

alright fine

you're lucky that imperial armour was autistic

[nova scaffold]

:D

[nova scaffold]

well the FF10 is slightly better due to the drum mag is removable

[crystal forum]

this lore is mostly outdated

[nova scaffold]

true

lets just say its also 10 gauge

[crystal forum]

since it also stated that the engineers have a dual hose gas mask

[nova scaffold]

hm

[crystal forum]

which is true for the 2007 models

[nova scaffold]

thats a advantage since fidwogger miners dont have gas mask

[crystal forum]

but not this year's release

[nova scaffold]

also most of them are orgininally just regular miners that is trained alot

[nova scaffold]

ngl it looks great

love it

[crystal forum]

i prefer the older models

[plush mason]

ok i got to ask, where are these anteater people from?

[nova scaffold]

cogget club is lovely

[nova scaffold]

quar

[plush mason]

wtf is quar?

[crystal forum]

DONT ASK YOU FOOL

[nova scaffold]

quar is like warhammer but you not suffering from the price gauge

[plush mason]

ah so a wargaming thing

got it

[nova scaffold]

basically is a world is in war due to the royalist ruling class system

[nova scaffold]

yeah

you got 15mm and 28mm

the 15mm is metal

the 28mm is newer and you got plastic or resin

the 15mm is only avliable from zombiesmith

the plastic release is available in wargame Atlantic

[nova scaffold]

whats the diffrenece

[crystal forum]

you know, i just realized they gave this shotgun a tube magazine even though it has a revolver thing

[nova scaffold]

nah it might be a a gas piston

since its automatic

[crystal forum]

they leaned more into the trench raider aspect with the new models

[nova scaffold]

like armor and trench coats

[plush mason]

arent the grenediers the more trench raider/storm trooper memembers of the DKOK?

[nova scaffold]

we talking about miners

[plush mason]

i know

[crystal forum]

also i prefer how the older ones are more faceless. i dont get the concept of making kriegers of all things have personality

[nova scaffold]

we debate on whos better, a fidwog miner vs a kreig miners

[plush mason]

this looks more like a grenedier to me

[crystal forum]

the new engineer team looks like a rejected kill team

[nova scaffold]

so yeah how you think of fidwogger miners

[crystal forum]

i dont care about them

[nova scaffold]

btw they got a update

now is more red just to make it easier to identify as fidwog due to they are mistaken for different factions

[crystal forum]

yup. it's like combat engineers were streamlined to look like grenadiers

or the veteran squad

[nova scaffold]

you not a fan because of it

[crystal forum]

it's just another faction losing individuality

[surreal nest]

Im ngl I think its just the paint job

Maybe im just annoyed you said krieg and losing individuality in the same sentence though

[nova scaffold]

do warhammer bits work with quar bit?

[arctic talon]

They have the grenadier skull plate on the gas mask. Which makes sense sorta since the engineers are part of the DKOK regimental storm trooper corp

[arctic talon]

Regarding the paint job the green grenadiers are another regiment from the poster child one

Bcs they got released after the poster child regiment in vraks got sent to a penal legion lol

[surreal nest]

Yeah you're right I just wanted to disagree

I am somewhat not happy with krieg after the 10th launch for imperial guard

[arctic talon]

They’re very whatever to me

lol

The new krieg minis are fine imo, my only real complaint is the armor the engineers have now

It’s really bulky

[surreal nest]

I like them I'm just salty that the entire 10th launch for guard was dedicated to krieg

combat engineer and heavy gunner models are lowk fire tho

[arctic talon]

But that’s an unfortunate case of resin vs plastic

Can’t do the armor the same

[arctic talon]

11e is gona be all catachan lul

And then Idfk what GW’s gona do after that

[surreal nest]

I'm honestly fine with mixing Catachan in my army

Krieg just break my cohesion

[arctic talon]

Reasonable

In any case I genuinely don’t know what GW’s gona do after they refresh the “core” 3

[surreal nest]

Probably introduce more fuck ass book characters

astra militarum is like a crossover episode lmfao

The gaunts ghosts! They showed up with ursula cred? AND THEN LORD SOLARS HERE? What's next, Minka Lesk???

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-patrick-star-blur-pixel-gif-17588996

[dapper gyro]

It would be better of they let each regiment has a specialty squad, rather than the half ass separation between regiments at the moment.

Like Krieg already has combat engineer squad, which also fit their siege warfare theme.

Catachan could be some skirmish, similar the the countless SM units.

[surreal nest]

I'd prefer if regiments were seperate entities frankly

[dapper gyro]

Nah, too much of overlap and difficult to balance.

It also makes them less original.

[surreal nest]

I don't think its healthy for an entire year of guard to be dedicated to a specific regiment however that be me opinion, yarghe

[dapper gyro]

Just look at the SM overall... Unless you are some big name chapter with significant rule different, like BT, DW and GK, most are just SM of different colour.

[surreal nest]

I mean yeah but the fluff is different no?

[dapper gyro]

And?

[surreal nest]

You don't feel like fluff rules are important?

[dapper gyro]

If you take on the fluff, guard regiments works together all the time and each of them do their strongest suit on the field.

And so, having specialty squad dedicated to each regiment makes even more sense.

[surreal nest]

Well yeah but my argument is purely I dont like that guard players might wait a year to get a batch of units that aren't applicable to their army

[surreal nest]

yeah im not against that

that's cool

i admit im a brickwall that's just annoyed about not getting any cool new vehicles for my cadians

[dapper gyro]

Well, you wrote that you want guard to be separated entirely... well... that's what exactly GW is doing, 1 guard team/edition...

[surreal nest]

seperate in the sense that we can have a krieg release and a cadian release

one specific regiment getting all the new models is disappointing, wouldn't happen if they were released as their own thing I believe. But I recongize its unrealistic.

[dapper gyro]

Making different stuff for each guard cost way more than something like SM, which can just be recoloured.

Hence why I suggest 1 or 2 squads per regiment, then you play as a combined troops.

[gaunt lily]

Killteams or maybe minor regiment upgrade sprues like they do for spacemarine shoulder pads

to an extent i think the recent string of big releases for guard has built some unrealistic expectations for future guard stuff, the rogal dorn will probably remain the singularly biggest actual new thing we get outside of the plastic refreshes and characters on horses

I wouldnt mind some plastic forgeworld rereleases though, Salamander Command/Scout Tank and Colossus Bombard come to mind as simple kits that could have meaningfully distinct datasheets

[hallow saddle]

love those forgeworld paintjobs too

[vagrant fox]

Gw will bring back the ragnarok instead of the dorn trust me bro

[surreal nest]

Thats exactly what I mean we have options

I mean to be fair the cadian refresh was truly amazing. I really am just a little unnecessarily peeved that I got no new toys

Like come on fellas we can do a big krieg release and maybe an updated tempestor prime!

[arctic talon]

They gave scions aquillons

thats their release for the next 5 years

/j

[surreal nest]

Ikr its so annoying

Because I LOVE the aquilons but I know thats my rations for the decade

[dapper gyro]

The thing is that if they give Cadian something, that's something less for other regiments. Then you will hear cry from the other guy.

It is a no winning situation for GW..

[surreal nest]

Thats relatively true, but I draw the exception at the fact that the cadians are a relatively generalized unit lore wise

As least compared to the krieg or catachan, yknow etc

So a unit for cadians is a unit for a lot of separate regiments

[nova scaffold]

rate their fit

[iron lantern]

It'd be funny if Big E stood up to go to the toilet and then Grey Knights turned up to beat the shit out of him

[nova scaffold]

big E farting will cause the grey knights too close to be knocked unconscious

[iron lantern]

You can just show them a picture of Leman Russ and they will leave

"We will call him if you try anything" - Custodes

[nova scaffold]

what?

[iron lantern]

Grey Knights fought Space Wolves

and lost

[nova scaffold]

yeah

lose to norse drunken furries

[iron lantern]

they would lose to a single R-VR

[nova scaffold]

i imagine a senario when the space wolfs and fidwogs met and somehow get alone because they both alcoholic

[iron lantern]

I would imagine that if space wolves and carcharodons met they would just awkwardly stand in silence with each other

seeing as theyre both furries but one is more scaly lol

and carcs are probably anti social to the point where the dont know to how to start a conversation lmao

[nova scaffold]

their is many quar factions and i wonder which regiments do work well wit quars

like will creeven work with kreig?

due to they are good at trench works

but they dont use same tactics

like they sometimes do use the conbine arms

[opaque coyote]

"Daughters of Khaine"
Looks inside

[nova scaffold]

or just not use same equipments

||Yes I know they're mostly slaves and shit I just wanted to make a meme||

[nova scaffold]

their is few tractors that would be nice for the imperium to use like the Mogyn Light Tractor

like it perhaps useful since it goes same speed both directions

basically like a light spg

also in quar standard is ancient

which is used for 9 decades since its first time in service

sadly its rather suffer from reliabillity issue

fun fact

[iron lantern]

How do I look yellow man?

[nova scaffold]

the ailthean is actually based off the mogyn suspention and tracks

[iron lantern]

They just look like this

[nova scaffold]

they can look forward

[nova scaffold]

because they all are ant eaters

[nova scaffold]

their is diff versions of the ailthean that is just a supply and mg carrier

yoo @iron lantern

wanna hear something funny

[nova scaffold]

the ailthean is the most advanced tractor but it has a funny flaw

since it was overweight it had to make a sacrafice

which is the fact that they cant turn the turret and move at the same time

because they had to disconnect the engine from the tract and reconnect to the turret drive to move the turret

and no they dont reset the positions so the driver had to trust the commander when it comes with directions

[lofty mason]

Can Imperium in its current state win against all-out Necron?

[storm jungle]

Nope.

[summer mural]

nah

[storm jungle]

If necrons ever full awoke the Imperium would get steamrolled, this has been a plot point forever

[summer mural]

i dont think anyone can win all out against necrons

[storm jungle]

Yeah ^

they are THE most technologically advanced species in the setting

[shadow plover]

[storm jungle]

they got a dynasty whos got a hologram board that can for example blow up any single planet in the galaxy

[summer mural]

although

I have a hard time visualizing like the bipedal necron types fighting in melee

I know they can

I just cant picture them doing twirling or whatever

[storm jungle]

They dont twirl yeah

[shadow plover]

your average warrior or immortal is clumsy but strong

[storm jungle]

Warriors just smash/kill you with the gauss blades

[storm jungle]

This yeah

its why you got actually scary fast melee units for crons

gun-based necrons job is to just walk forward in phalanxes and shoot

[summer mural]

basically terminators

[storm jungle]

Yep lol

[summer mural]

but from that one movie with the liquid terminator guy

[queen laurel]

hey that's enough to win melee fights in this universe

[lofty mason]

I wonder what Warhammer 100k will look like 😂

[vagrant fox]

The Eldar would win even in their current state I believe 🙏 😔

[lofty mason]

Necron is probably the only "real" faction left fighting against Tyranids.

[shadow plover]

Even Necrons don't want the nids to eat everything else because who's left to rule over then

they want subjects

slaves

[storm jungle]

Absolute gigachads

whats a realm to rule WITHOUT slaves?

[lofty mason]

Imagine Necron winning 40k and just go back to sleep

[storm jungle]

I MEAN subjects

[lofty mason]

• Wake up
• Purged the Milky Way
• Got bored
• Go back to sleep

[queen laurel]

we are not CA, say SLAVES with the HARD s

[lofty mason]

CA?

[queen laurel]

creative assembly

[hexed orchid]

Necrons become Mass effect Reapers

Walk up and purge the galaxy every now and then

[sturdy sedge]

I'm not sure current Imperium can win against anyone going all out

[storm jungle]

Its basically Necrons, Orks and Tyranids.

[near wasp]

Great there discussing slavery again

[queen laurel]

Not even chaos

[near wasp]

If chaos united nobody could take them down

[storm jungle]

They could tbh

Necrons especially

[near wasp]

Ok maybe them

[storm jungle]

Yeah i wouldnt argue but we have thing slike the Pariah Nexus which kinda negate it

also BFG2 where they outright close the Eye of Terror

[queen laurel]

?????

[storm jungle]

which isnt canon obviously but its basically a "they could do it if they wanted"

To be fair

the dynasty in charge of that is a responsible one

they wouldnt willy nilly blow planets up

lol

[queen laurel]

Yeah but if chaos is becoming a problem I'm pretty sure the responsibility is gonna kick in

[summer mural]

i think its time we change the name of the planet

earth is kinda boring now

[storm jungle]

[summer mural]

cant we call it something cool now

like planet New Rome

[queen laurel]

fine but you can no longer listen to Jesper Kyd

[summer mural]

why the condition

you arent bored of the name earth?

[queen laurel]

you propose to change you get the consequence

[summer mural]

its an exclusively beneficial change

call it like planet Keanu

no reason to keep calling it planet earth

70% of the planet isnt even earth

call it planet hydro

[queen laurel]

Yeah but you proposed to change so in return you get something

[vagrant fox]

You's disrespecting the hard work earthworms do

[summer mural]

who?

[vagrant fox]

our planet is called dirt for their glory

[summer mural]

we can call them hydroworms

[vagrant fox]

Eels are weird I don't respect that

[lofty mason]

Is it crazy to think that IRL humanity 40k will probably be more OP than 40k Necron. I mean look at the technological progress in the past 100 years. Assuming we are alive and thriving by then, we will likely be Forerunner or Xeelee level.

[storm jungle]

Probably not.

We are very likely to die on this planet lol

Humans usually invent nothing that changes our way of life in a huge way unless we are actively threatened or its just way to late to do anything about it

[lofty mason]

But my optimism.

https://tenor.com/view/team-galaxy-puppy-dog-eyes-sad-tears-pleading-gif-1798000004183741594

[storm jungle]

You want optimism, loo kat how we cant even share a single bit of rock now

If we expand and make colonies to mars and the moon people will probably revolt and secede from us there too.

People like Musk say right now that people that couldnt pay for void voyages could pay their debt through what is essentially indentured servitude (aka literally slavery)

You want happiness and optimism just spread it to people/folk around you, the world is just a way messier place than we can really dwell or do something about it on unfortunately.

[rocky gale]

The Expanse moment

[hallow plover]

That reminds me of weyland yutani in Alien Romulus

"Sorry, there's inflation. Go wage another 10 years and we might let you get off world. Also you rent is due on your hab unit."

[rocky gale]

Literally the setting at the start of The Expanse, Earth colonises solar system, best and brightest go to the Martian terraforming project, poorest and desperate go out into the Asteroid belts and become miners. Problem is Earth owns everything. Mars gets into a position to claim independence, so it and Earth now equally claim the Asteroid belt as theirs, while the people born out there over generations in space are unable to live on a planet with gravity and are basically trapped working there while Earth and Mars gets all the resources and profit.

[hallow plover]

Yea and martians have the fantasy that they could somehow set foot on earth and wage a ground war lol

I should read the last book eventually

[rocky gale]

Good ole Revanchism

[remote widget]

Isnt that the plot of infinite warfare, and red faction, and all tomorrows

And... a bunch of gundam shows?

[rocky gale]

Earth responds negatively to their declaration of independence, forcing them to militarise and delaying their terraforming project

Yea, but the Expanse is cooler

[hallow plover]

Isn't the martian terraforming a false hope thing?

If I remember it was doomed to fail

[rocky gale]

Na it was possible, they just kinda give up on near the end because of what happens

[hallow plover]

The lack of magnetic shield for the planet meant they could never grow anything because of radiations

[rocky gale]

Can't remember if it's in the books, but in the show they mention in one of the later seasons that the project had advanced to the point where the planet had a magnetosphere

and they talked about it potentially having it's own aurora borealis

It is treated as a doomed to fail thing, but it's more due to attitude

Like a lot of the younger people born on Mars don't really care about the project and are perfectly fine living in Domed cities

[hallow plover]

I might be misremembering it... i've read these novels as they came out back then

[rocky gale]

and then after the Ring incident it becomes an even lesser priority

[hallow plover]

Yea

||Unlimited planets||

[rocky gale]

Was trying to avoid spoilers

[hallow plover]

||"Unlimited"||

||It's more of a why develop mars when there's habitable-ish planets out there that could be accessible||

[rocky gale]

Yes and I was trying not to say that because it's a spoiler

[hallow plover]

🫣

[rocky gale]

Hence I was vague about the Ring incident, where someone who knew would know what I was talking about but people who haven't seen it wouldn't

[hallow plover]

Here. The black bars shall protect future readers from my foolish self

[dapper gyro]

We can't even unify people on earth to do anything right now...

[hallow plover]

At this point I think even with an external alien threat we wouldn't even be able to unify

[tough haven]

I really don’t get the jet 2 holiday meme, I get it’s put over unfortunate things, but unless there’s a layer of context I’m not getting, it’s just playing an ad over a meme

[rocky gale]

Yea it's an annoying advert that was played so often in the UK that's it's drilled into our subconscious. Then we turned it into an ironic meme

Anyway new Killteam leak

https://tenor.com/view/sonic-devil-diabolique-evil-gif-9725651736562738158

Brand new full Sisters Killteam, not just an upgrade Sprue

[queen laurel]

Bro why are necrons bringing shards of a god on a skirmish where they have a chance to only fight these guys 💀

[rocky gale]

I think the Nightbringer is going to be there as a like Neutral enemy both sides are trying to kill

Like the last Killteam box had extra Nids in it and rules for a Co-op Killteam game mode where both sides worked together to hunt down the Nids

[queen laurel]

I hope so because

[rocky gale]

So maybe it's like that but both sides are fighting while trying to kill it

[queen laurel]

That is crazy work to put the shard of a god in a skirmish game

[summer mural]

I find how hive cities are layered cities stacked on top of each more interesting after I've seen some visual evidence in dt

With all the large ceilings on top with the fans

When you're "outdoors"

Or like, even in clandestium gloriana

The proper surface of atoma is all the desert hourglass stuff right

[winged jacinth]

Yeah that's just inside the hive skin which is in tatters

You can see scaffolding and panels for it in some of the areas

[winged jacinth]

You're probably confusing the book with reality where terraforming mars is a multi-layered impossibility

Tfw musks nuke the icecaps idea would provide 1% of an atmosphere which solar wind would blow away within the decade

[summer mural]

What's a hive skin

[winged jacinth]

The outer shell of the hive

You cant just call it the wall because there's a trillion walls

[summer mural]

Oh..so the hourglass isn't even on the surface?

[winged jacinth]

It sort of is?

The skin has huge holes in it which is where all the sand came from

[summer mural]

Is there another hive layer on top of the hourglass i guess is what I mean

[winged jacinth]

I think tertium is supposed to have atmospheric shielding too but who knows how long that's been broken

On top? Yes
Its on the exterior edge of the mid-hive

There's like a protective screen around it but its where landers and stuff were meant to enter the hive

[summer mural]

But it's still in the city, there's a wall around it that's cracked and so the sand is coming in from outside?

[winged jacinth]

Yeah kinda more like a screen?
Atoma is a hellscape of radioactive dust storms and the skin is for keeping that out

[summer mural]

Oh there's more layers on top

Damn

[winged jacinth]

Oh yeah we've never even seen the spire

[summer mural]

I thought the hourglass was the topmost layer and thus exposed to the elements

[winged jacinth]

Throneside is like the top of midhive i think

The hive is kinda cone shaped so i guess there isnt stuff directly above most of the hourglass

[summer mural]

But I guess I'm assuming good chunk of the hive is underground relative to atomas surface but I think it's more accurate to assume the hive is building upward relative to it

[winged jacinth]

Its unclear but there are dozens of floors above and below where we've seen

The torrent isnt even the real underhive it gets worse lol

[summer mural]

Well, with hourglass we can assume it's above "sea" level right

Since sand is blowing in

[winged jacinth]

Yeah

[summer mural]

And it's not underground at least

[winged jacinth]

Its where lifter ships are supposed to dock and interact with the hive, you can look down at a few points we're very high up

[summer mural]

Hive city is insane, when you consider all the train yards too

[winged jacinth]

Tertium is the size of a country but stacked on itself 100 times

I think it had a population of like, 3 billion? Before uh, you know lol

Population: less

[summer mural]

Also it's funny when you go to the more posh looking maps, like throneside

And you look up and see a big skybox and see another ceiling at the top

With the giant ventilation fans

[winged jacinth]

Yeah throneside is like a bourgeois district

The nobles live in the spire even farther up

[summer mural]

So

What about the interzone void

[winged jacinth]

Im... not sure? I think its in between areas on a floor?

Its hidden in something like an enormous cooling system

[summer mural]

It reminds me of the place in coruscant , you know like the area where Palpatine and dooku had their secret meetings

Like a big factory hub with just pipes and stuff

[vagrant fox]

☝️ 🤓

[winged jacinth]

Ah i guess its between floors vertically not between areas laterally

Im still pretty sure its a giant cooling duct

[summer mural]

It's crazy that it's so super cooled, you're basically in like a giant computer processor and your like a microbe that found it's way to the 1 inch area where the cooling happens

[winged jacinth]

Its probably between two floors of foundries and manufactories and probably doesn't cover the whole cross section of the hive

But yeah stuff doesn't just... get cold

[vagrant fox]

I think someone guesstimate-calculated the base of the hive to be ~100 km based on artwork. It's a bit big

[winged jacinth]

If anything a hive would need extensive cooling or the heat of human life would turn the inner hive into an oven

Not to mention braking trains and stuff

[summer mural]

So surface of atoma is radiated wasteland?

[winged jacinth]

The london subway tunnels have been steadily heating up for their whole existence which i think is a decent comparison

Its for sure a wasteland of dust and sand im pretty sure its radioactive

[summer mural]

That'd quite judge dredd esque I guess

And cyberpunk 2077

A... bunch of shit ig

[winged jacinth]

Its not unusual in 40k

If i had to guess

[crystal forum]

why would atoma be irradiated

is it because of space radiation

[summer mural]

Because radiation is good for bones

[winged jacinth]

We know there are two hives but we're in tertium so a third one might have had an... accident

[vagrant fox]

Side product of 40k industry, don't worry about it

[winged jacinth]

I remember lines about radiation on hourglass missions

[summer mural]

Also there's a spire reaching to the top of the hive right, I wonder if there's a balcony there with a nice view

[crystal forum]

i know forge worlds have shitty atmospheres but usually that's just toxic chemicals

anyways this is why everybody should use steel legion uniforms

[vagrant fox]

I suppose if it doesn't have an ozone layer anymore the UV radiation is popping off, but I don't think that's what meant by radiation

[summer mural]

It's probably man made radiation

Accidental or otherwise

Or a byproduct

[crystal forum]

i don't understand why that would be the case since the imperium doesn't really use nuclear power or nuclear weapons that often

[vagrant fox]

It's really cool to use atomics to dig with, it's rad as fuck

[crystal forum]

krieg was unique in being irradiated because nukes were actually used

[summer mural]

I dunno, maybe there's some history

Or there's accident

[winged jacinth]

The imperium regularly uses atomics

[summer mural]

Or maybe xenos lived there millenia ago and blew each other to bits

[vagrant fox]

tbf the lexicanum doesn't mention any real radiation but I seem to recall a voice line from the game mentioning it

[winged jacinth]

They're just no good for books

[crystal forum]

as weapons?

[winged jacinth]

Yeah

[crystal forum]

why would nukes be used on atoma

[summer mural]

Or maybe there's a single artifact somewhere on the planet that's radiated everything

[rose thorn]

We dunno, tbh, there's another entire hive city we don't know anything about afaik

[crystal forum]

i think the uniform of the atoma wastelander guys mentions it

[winged jacinth]

They use it for power and have crazy industrial accidents too but you said they don't use them for warfare and that's objectively not true

[summer mural]

Also house mangolin is like

The rulers of atoma?

[arctic talon]

The admech love irradiating shit lol

radiation is "holy"

[crystal forum]

i said not that often. you dont see nukes used a lot

[vagrant fox]

I mean I wouldn't go into the wastes, irradiated or not

[summer mural]

I remember them mentioning who's in charge of the city

Some noble family or the other

[winged jacinth]

The navy has a comical five hundred and sixty gigaton missile

[crystal forum]

yeah so it's just normal industrial toxic waste

like armageddon

[winged jacinth]

Like i said i wasnt sure about radiation but i think masozi does give you a line about radiation coming through the hive skin but it could be solar

[summer mural]

Also

Was the ragged king some crime lord like Jabba the Hutt who got ran out by the nurgle lovers

[arctic talon]

new nightbringer mini

in Killteam as an NPO bossfight

[rose thorn]

LMAO

[crystal forum]

i cant read taco

[rose thorn]

That’s awesome

If necrons get an army box i might be intersted

[winged jacinth]

Remember when the iron warriors tried to fire a nuke at vulkan and it somehow didn't work out

[summer mural]

Somehow

[vagrant fox]

Primarchs are magic, don't have to explain anything

[winged jacinth]

Basically, a petty gangboss who controlled a zone

[crystal forum]

vortex missiles are cooler

[vagrant fox]

A nightbringer fragment in killteam is a bit wack but I'm not against it

[crystal forum]

why explode things when you can remove them from existence

[summer mural]

He monopolized water supply or something?

Also, are the traitors like, winning

[arctic talon]

Also Raptors(generic but painted NL) and def new SoB minis

just based on the posing

[winged jacinth]

Stalemateish?

[summer mural]

I wonder if they are expanding physically or there are pockets of them all over the city

[winged jacinth]

We honestly don't know that much about the ragged king outside his interactions with zola

[crystal forum]

chaos wins just by existing

[winged jacinth]

There's nonspecific lines of battle all over

[vagrant fox]

Pay off the cops and make the normie plebs pay out the ass for water they need to live, sounds like a sensible racket to me

[winged jacinth]

Lorewise its already over for tertium lol

[arctic talon]

team name for SoB is Celestian Insidiators

lol

[crystal forum]

an upstanding hive business

[winged jacinth]

An infestation this bad i think the imperium would normally give up on even with the factories and stuff

[crystal forum]

nah the factorums are too valuable

[winged jacinth]

But we have poxer singing turned off and stuff so its gucci

[summer mural]

Also I've noticed they added new voicelines with the admonition cult, like the mysterious voice guys and they gave the corruptor eye demon a name

It's nice to know that's it's apparently just one entity

That's all over the place

[winged jacinth]

That's been hinted at / mentioned in passing for a while

[vagrant fox]

With some of the things going on in the wang supplement things look a bit bad but the Imperium works slowly so we got plenny of time

[winged jacinth]

Various lines about it having worked its way all throughout the hive

[summer mural]

Well

In the grand scale of usual 40k imperium problems

Atoma ain't so bad

[crystal forum]

i hope we get upper hive missions

[vagrant fox]

Sobs look nice tbf

[crystal forum]

i want to kill hive nobles

[winged jacinth]

I dunno what the plan is for the corruptor lol it seems a little unsolveable

Maybe they can shrive it one day or something

[vagrant fox]

bit sus wanting to attack your superiors

[winged jacinth]

We already killed rinda and rodin

[crystal forum]

superiors? we're inquisitorial agents

[summer mural]

You got nurgle worshippers, traitor guard regiment, cultists, a big daemon, some beasts of nurgle here and there. All on single planet ?? That's quite tame by imperium standards

[crystal forum]

tertium's situation is pretty bad by normal standards

traitors openly attacking is not usually the norm

[winged jacinth]

The situation is also a lot better than it should be tbh

[radiant lance]

Are femboys still a thing in the 40k universe?

[crystal forum]

slaanesh

[summer mural]

If they send like....one more loyalist guardsmen regiment they could probably get the upper hand

[winged jacinth]

The poxwalker infestation is miraculously not out of hand among other things
