Authoritarian

opaque coyote
#

In terms of the most chill Primarchs

Corax is definitely in the top.

Just don't enslave people or go against the Imperium

arctic talon
#

Oligarchic or dictatorial

opaque coyote
#

You'll probably be okay

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

Yeah

near wasp
#

It's probably dictatorship

rose thorn
#

I’ll do dictatorial since my other play though is oligarchy

opaque coyote
#

Honestly a part of me is kinda curious about what if Corvus initially joined Horus's rebellion

rose thorn
#

yoink shadow council

arctic talon
#

Tbh authoritarian is way worse then egalitarian

opaque coyote
#

I can imagine he would fucking high tail it out of there once the really chaosy shit happens

arctic talon
#

Which is funny

opaque coyote
#

But it would be interesting

arctic talon
#

It’s pretty much never a good idea to pick authoritarian in stellaris

arctic talon
#

Authoritarian government is fine

opaque coyote
#

Being a dictator might be bad

#

In other news

#

The sky is looking rather blue today

#

Still fun though

rose thorn
#

Technocracy and shadow council

opaque coyote
#

God I need to actually figure out how to play Stellaris

arctic talon
#

But authoritarian as a core ethic is bleh

opaque coyote
#

Instead of floundering around

arctic talon
#

Dictatorship is fine

#

As an actual ruling type

#

Same with monarchy

rose thorn
#

For origin I picked mechanist

dapper gyro

#

Just don't do specialist jobs until your economy is really strong because it'll make worker quit doing basic jobs

rose thorn
#

Since, robots

near wasp
#

Or manage specialist jobs closely

rose thorn
#

It was that or post apocalyptic

arctic talon
#

Mmmm synths

rose thorn
#

Oh shit traits I didn’t think of that at all

woven plank
#

Does looks a bit gnarly though

rose thorn
#

Nascent stage

opaque coyote
#

At least the man had a reason for feeling depressed

#

Also on an unrelated note.

I think the only part where Magnus actually did nothing wrong was refusing the Emperor's offer.

#

Because idk about you. But that offer was complete ass

#

"Yeah bro I'll forgive you. But first I have to euthanize literally all of your Genesons."

#

I'm pretty sure if the Emperor didn't include that. Then things might have not been that fucked

woven plank
#

What if Big E was actually Biggie cheese

opaque coyote
#

Probably would do better

opaque coyote
#

Big E is the dumbest immortal

#

Again let me just repost something

#

The perturabo part made me burst into a fit of laughter ngl

#

He almost didn't deserve that

#

Almost.

plush mason
#

ngl i think Lorgar was his biggest fuck up

#

both in making him and in not purging the shit out of the world he found him on

opaque coyote
#

...

#

Except 40,000x worse

#

Seriously it costed him nothing to just try and talk Lorgar down

#

Instead of burning down his whole city

#

AND USING ONE OF HIS OWN BROTHERS TO DO IT

plush mason
vagrant fox
#

I often find myself wishing the emps was more than a quarter character and a dozen events

opaque coyote
plush mason
#

big e was the ultimate neglectful/abusive father

opaque coyote
#

Again, something that still makes zero sense is the Emperor

Removing his empathy and love (like he ever had any)

#

And then trying to convince Horus to surrender

#

While he was on several pounds of chaos

#

Firstly, wouldn't that sound like something that he'd do if he still had his empathy?

#

It would make sense if he got back his empathy to try and convince Horus

plush mason
opaque coyote
#

Like he removed it for the Great Crusade

#

And only got it back so he could try and talk Horus down

#

Secondly, how the fuck did he think that would work

#

It literally makes zero sense

#

The writers room probably got fucking destroyed by Ollanius's ship

plush mason
#

the emperor is a plot device more than a character so his actions are for the sake of the plot

vagrant fox
#

Reasonably, it makes sense to convince the unstoppable death string puppet to surrender whether you empathise or not but, well
Emps is frustratingly irrational

opaque coyote
vagrant fox
#

Does thing because plot needs to happen

opaque coyote
#

And never compromised

#

So there are instances where the Emperor is more human

And then less

#

Etc.

plush mason
#

had to make it line up with the 40k stuff

opaque coyote
#

That's just one example

vagrant fox
#

I just wanted him to be a coherent asshole angymorrow

plush mason
opaque coyote
#

Personally I like my Emperor with more humanity.

Still a complete asshole but one that is recognizably human.

plush mason
#

so they had to leave them in

near wasp
#

He can think when he wants to, doesn't he talk to lion in arks?

#

He's not calm but he talks

opaque coyote
#

Now he needs to use it more

#

Oh wait he didn't

near wasp
#

I mean he kinda got his brain caved in

opaque coyote
plush mason
#

in 40k the emperor's mind and soul has been scattered into millions of fragments across the warp

opaque coyote
#

He became so damaged that he needs that constant rage to feel normal

#

Similar to how a child becomes so familiar with abuse that any kindness feels like poison

#

Angron was so fucked up by the nails that he decided to nail them back in because he couldn't take being sane

#

Being held accountable

#

Being back in the cage

near wasp
#

I honestly think angron fine the way he is

plush mason
#

or just keep the nails in and dont be a dick and kidnap Angron and force him to watch his friends die and then ally with the slavemasters that put the nails in his brain

opaque coyote
near wasp
#

It's fulgrims whole corruption I hate

opaque coyote
#

But still though

#

I like the Emperor being flawed.

#

But I like it when it's somewhat reasonable

#

The Siege of Terra, although it's a problematic story for sure, especially with the author's intent.

I actually somewhat like how the Emperor is framed?

#

Immature

#

Basically a fucking reddit atheist

#

But also willing to talk

vagrant fox
#

Angrons deal is fine omho, his story makes sense in the context. Ignoring that the all powerful biomancer that is the Emperor couldn't fix a brain but oh well

opaque coyote
#

Willing to try and convince this man to just

#

Go to the stars with him

#

Peacefully

#

It feels like he is a person and not a plot device

#

Sorry not the Siege of Terra

#

The

#

Last Church

near wasp
opaque coyote
#

Sorry for accidentally spreading misinformation for a dec

opaque coyote
#

The fact that the Emperor should be able to remove the nails

#

Could be a soul thing

vagrant fox
opaque coyote
#

Either way, Jesus Christ I wish the Emperor was consistent

#

God

vagrant fox
#

My copium is that he saw Angron as the biggest failure and decided to just use him until he'd fall over dead from the nails

near wasp
#

I kinda refuse to read the heresy

opaque coyote
near wasp
#

Might read like soul hunter and master of mankind but as a whole ehhhhh

vagrant fox
#

Angron is the saddest wettest little thang who failed to do much and had mortals mutilate him just to proceed to make the worst suicide attempt
The Emps I'd like to see, deciding killing trillions is worth it to save the species, would almost discard Angron outright

#

I hate when keyboard layouts change

opaque coyote
#

"HOLY SHIT YOU CAN'T EVEN KILL YOURSELF CORRECTLY. YOU FUCKING SUCK!"

#

Some of the hh novels are genuinely very good but I only read 8 or 10 or whatever

opaque coyote
vagrant fox
#

Like a stereotypical asian parent on steroids

opaque coyote
#

And also you shouldn't read all of them

#

Like

near wasp
#

Yeah I'm kinda running out of 40k books I'm interested in

opaque coyote
#

I have

#

Unironically

#

Watched all of One Piece

#

And I have never read more than a couple of the HH novels

near wasp
#

Jesus

#

I got stalled in alabasta

opaque coyote
#

The anime pacing is actually okay

#

Up until Enies Lobby

#

Then it slows to a crawl

near wasp
#

I've watched like 6 episodes of them walking through a desert

opaque coyote
#

10 episodes were clip shows

#

I skipped all of them

opaque coyote
#

Grab one manga chapter

vagrant fox
#

I really liked Galaxy in Flames and as far as I'm concerned, the hh series ends there

opaque coyote
#

Make it an entire fucking episode

#

They did it for Dragonball too

#

There's a reason why 5 minutes is a meme

#

They do it for all of their long running shows

near wasp
#

Yeah

opaque coyote
#

Honestly

Read the manga

#

If you ever want to continue.

It's fine if you don't though

#

Heard the live action adaptation is actually decent though

near wasp
#

I mean I'll probably just continue the anime at some point

opaque coyote
#

Like people don't hate it. Some actually like it

#

One Piece gets the award for having a live action adaptation that isn't complete ass

#

Some of the anime only movies are actually pretty good too

vagrant fox
#

Reminds me of the berserk boat arc
Nine years of torturous agony

opaque coyote
#

I like her being an absolute fucking scumbag

#

She is also more complicated than people think.

But in general I do like all of her money grubbing antics

#

And it's also funny that out of the full crew.

Only two of them actually know how to manage money

#

The rest would be the type to spend it on nfts

rose thorn
#

Found an empire like right off the bat.. I’m half tempted to orbital bombard them for a bit

#

Never mind their military is pretty big lmao

jade holly
#

And also is it me or is Luffy completely insufferable during that section of Alabasta?

opaque coyote
#

but that's because luffy is luffy

#

i already got used to his goofy ass

#

Also the Crocodile beatdown more than makes up for it tbh

#

also

woven plank
#

Do Orks eat or do they find the nearest beach to absorb sunlight

woven plank
arctic talon
tough haven
#

But I believe they can go a long time without eating

queen laurel
#

They still need water and food

shrewd depot
#

Has there been anything for Orks growing in different regions and getting something unique because of it?

#

Like a horde of feral boys spawned from a corpse pile or something

queen laurel
#

they don't get any unique evolutionary things and stuff they are just that

#

tough

daring creek
#

What does tzeench chaos do specifically

#

Is it just gaslighting

#

I read that it's the god of change.

daring creek
#

Right lexicanum exists...

queen laurel
#

complete opposite of nurgle basically

shrewd depot
#

I think he's also the God of magic in general, but I havent heard that title attributed to him in a minute

summer mural
#

The winds flow from him

#

Although I guess 40k doesn't have the winds

plush mason
#

yeah his "lord of sorcery" title is mainly fantasy battles iirc

celest dome
#

It isn't that wrong in 40k either

#

A lot of the techniques of the Psykers are from him

plush mason
#

yeah its just not used as much afaik

celest dome
#

Would be interesting to read about the Blue Scribe in 40k

#

If they have diverging lore or not

celest dome
#

Just saw a mobile ads for 40k Tacticus, with on the top having "Blood of the Blood god" written.
There were no Khornate SM in the ads, just Slaanesh SM and some Eldars.

valid needle
#

Gaslighting and magic tomfoolery

plush mason
#

ngl i think Tacticus is like the most successful 40k mobile game, not that its a high bar to pass or anything

daring creek

Dont read so deep into it, its just there because it looks cool

It should be illegal to think differently than I...

Hm

Omega mean world is cooked.

Ultramarine have symbol.

Ultramarine = Emperor.

Emperor is cook.

Imperium is cook.

queen laurel

And you didn't specify so as classic imperial bureaucracy I'm putting you to the redemptor

queen laurel

you cannot argue me here this is imperial politics

rose thorn

Is it an insane take to say I wish imperialis was the primary horus heresy game

celest dome
#

Yesn't

#

It's not a weird take to say that Horus Heresy atm is somewhat redundant

rose thorn
#

Imperialis being the only epic game in Warhammer makes it unqiue

#

And it really represents the actual scale of the horus heresy pretty well

summer mural
#

I like horus heresy mainly because the sons of horus seem like a competent space marine enemy

#

~~ unlike the black legion~~

rose thorn
#

I think black legion was supposed to be as strong as chaos warriors back in wfb

summer mural
#

well black legion is very strong in lore

rose thorn
#

But with it’s direct comparison now being S2D

celest dome
summer mural
#

but sons of horus they describe using actual battle tactics and doing fighting retreats and things all the time

rose thorn
celest dome

Ye that, ty

summer mural

also getting dialogue from like malcador is cool during horus heresy

those type of characters

Not this year at least

If sylvaneth get anything this year specifically it’s a foot hero imo

And an AoR for sylvaneth

So I’m inverted from you lol

#

all the releases after orruks have been complete rules rewrites so hopefully its good

arctic talon
#

Orruks should have gotten a rewrite

#

Imo

#

And honestly not everyone needed rewrites but whatever lol

#

idk anythign about ironjawz, but i know ppl were happy with kruleboyz (ignoring the accidental fucking up one of our dirty tricks) combined with the new scourge they are good

rose thorn

Ironjawz needed a shot in the arm

ah, i still dont know anythign about them lol

i think, kharadron got a rewrite?

the new khorne rules aer pretty fun i heard

Average Warhammer 40k character

Tbf it's 38k years in the future

Any slurs are probably unrecognizable

No bad language allowed

opaque coyote
#

T'au: "...what?'

#

"I NEED TO REFER TO YOU WITH THE CORRECT PRONOUNS WHILE STABBING YOU. VERY IMPORTANT."

paper haven
#

A human having to explain the concept of gender identity to a T'au prisoner would be hilarious

opaque coyote
#

Tbf I think the T'au have at least a similar idea of sex?

#

Like there's male and female

#

They could have a similar type of feeling about gender identity

paper haven
#

Maybe but I seriously doubt they'd reach the same conclusions about them as a society

opaque coyote
#

True

#

Some languages have no pronouns

#

I mean to be specific. They only have one gender neutral pronoun

#

They could just not care

paper haven
#

We have similar issues now between cultures

#

As you say

opaque coyote
#

Like gender could entirely not be a concept to them. They deal with fucking living mushroom people

#

I think they wouldn't care honestly

paper haven
#

So between humans and T'au, it would be a very difficult thing to convey and find an equivalent for.

opaque coyote
#

Except maybe the water caste. They probably note it down for their diplomats

jade holly
#

Male? Female? T’au, you were born into the earth caste

opaque coyote
#

"Make sure not to call the Gue'vesa a she. It is a he."

#

"Why does that matter?"

#

"they really care about that for some reasons"

#

"THEY LOOK THE FUCKING SAME."

paper haven
#

See? Hilarious

opaque coyote
#

"Har'old!"

#

"NO, THEY LITERALLY LOOK THE SAME."

#

"YOU DEAL WITH KROOT AND YET YOU'RE MAD ABOUT THIS?"

#

"I CAN UNDERSTAND CANNIBALISM BUT NOT THIS!"

#

"WHY CAN YOU ACCEPT CANNIBALISM??"

jade holly
paper haven
#

T'au sensitivity training and Gue'vesa sensitivity training to account for the dramatic cultural differences would be an endless PowerPoint presentation from hell

jade holly
opaque coyote
#

Or process it so it doesn't feel like you're eating a human being

paper haven
#

It's not cannibalism if there's deniability about the source of your corpse starch

opaque coyote
#

Tbf I think corpse starch is only partially human?

#

Like in lore it says it's a mix of human and other shit

jade holly
opaque coyote
#

Which would also make it easier to hide

jade holly
opaque coyote
paper haven
#

It's a little bit different than descending upon the still twitching body of your friend

opaque coyote
#

But it's like how getting a pork chop from the market

#

Is different from lime

#

Hunting a pig, killing it, and doing the proper procedure to harvest the meat

#

Doesn't mean it isn't gruesome though

jade holly
#

Then there’s the wood elves in Skyrim

paper haven
#

What's that parasite you get from poorly prepared meat?

#

Most hunters wind up getting it

opaque coyote
paper haven
#

Oh geez. I can't remember the name

#

Not salmonella.

opaque coyote
#

Trichinosis?

paper haven
#

I believe it is specific to eating meat from an animal you killed yourself

jade holly
#

The parasite knows if you didn’t kill it yourself

#

it has a flag that gets turned to true to know that

paper haven
#

Not really it just doesn't make it through the processing most meat goes through

#

I think it's Trichinosis

opaque coyote
#

But at the same time

#

I don't know how to cook, especially wild game

#

And I also don't want to just like

#

Leave the corpse of the animal

#

Like if I fucking ended it's life prematurely. I should at least use it's dead corpse for something

#

Yk?

#

...

paper haven
#

I think everyone should at least learn how to hunt and prepare their own food, even if they never use those skills

opaque coyote
#

Learning survival skills

#

Even though I hate camping

#

Like

#

I despise camping

#

That's why I would hate the apocalypse

#

Not because of like

The downfall of society, the constant danger to my life, etc. etc.

#

But mainly because I would have to deal with mosquitoes who are just attracted to my blood for some reason

paper haven
#

If it makes you feel any better, you'd likely starve long before the apocalypse got to the point of people living off wildlife in the wilderness

opaque coyote
#

It must be fucking delicious if I keep getting them whenever I got to a forest area

opaque coyote
#

If it was nuclear, yeah I'd probably just shoot myself

#

Ain't dealing with that

#

Would try and store some supplies anyways in case some random survivor wants some though.

#

I would be the fucking random encounter loot stash

opaque coyote
#

Some rich people are paranoid about society falling

#

Heard things like them being afraid of like their security shooting them in the back while in the bunker or something

#

Like

#

Bro

#

How about trying to make society not collapse

paper haven
#

Me watching the billionaire think that their security staff won't just kill them and take their supplies for their families

opaque coyote
#

Put bomb collars on their security

#

Or some shit

#

But that just incentivizes them to kill you further

paper haven
#

I'm sure threatening to kill these trained killers won't backfire spectacularly

opaque coyote
#

Anyways, I'm also just imagining like

#

Some people find a rich guy's bunker in the apocalypse

#

And then gathering people like it's an MMO raid party

#

💀

paper haven
#

That's actually a good idea for an MMO dungeon

opaque coyote
#

MMO

#

It should be around 5 years after whatever catastrophe

#

Because it would make sense that just after shit goes down

#

People would start banding together, fighting each other, etc

#

I think that's why FO76 is the earliest like

#

In the timeline

paper haven
#

Too bad it's a terrible game

#

I like the Frost mod for Fallout 4 better

And also good in general

#

Altruistic peacekeepers and aid workers

#

Was founded by former police, firemen, and other volunteers

paper haven
#

Oh they're fucked

opaque coyote
#

Surprisingly enough

They did get completely wiped out and then came back

#

And actually have a significant military presence

#

They also freely provide survival training

#

Also unlike the Minutemen, they actually made headway in their revival

#

This is the second altruistic faction in Fallout

#

Apparently here are all of the factions in FO76

#

The free Radicals are also interesting

#

Wow

#

Raider factions that aren't just

#

Fodder for my gun

#

Mindblowing

#

Also there is the enclave but they're run by fucking

#

ChatGPT

arctic talon
#

Though bethesda is 2 for 3 on mindless violent raiders

paper haven
#

The Enclave being run by ChatGPT is some of the best dark comedy I can think of

opaque coyote
#

The player

#

And an AI

#

That's it

#

Also the main source of all the nukes launched btw

#

There were members but they literally all died

paper haven
#

Rip

opaque coyote
#

Basically, Eckhardt released the scorched plague.

#

Because the Enclave was mostly filled with people who were

A) from the pre-war era
B) didn't know their main agenda

#

A rebellion happened

#

They killed the president, and attempted to reform the Appalachian Enclave

#

...

#

Unfortunately that also includes shutting down the AI, Modus

#

Modus didn't like that very much

#

He killed them all

#

Also funnily enough

#

Modus contacted every radio station to get new members

#

And that includes remnants of the US army

#

Who were all like

#

"That sounds like bad news. I am not fucking with that."

paper haven
#

Crazy that they survived the apocalypse but not their own poor decisions

opaque coyote
#

It's a fitting end to an enclave sect tbh

opaque coyote
#

They cannot stop Gooning to people being skinned alive for 0.01 seconds to stop everybody from dying

Slaanesh didn't kill enough Eldar

It's my greatest regret about the whole Eye of Terror situation.

storm jungle

the whole backspine aesthetic for starters lol

#

also all their practices regarding their Shrine as well

crystal forum
#

so the crone worlds

#

are they another set of high tier loot dungeons in the 40k setting

storm jungle
#

Yes.

#

But they are basically infested with daemons

crystal forum
#

so it's up there with vaults of mars and imperial palace underground

arctic talon
#

Sometimes there’s chaos eldar

storm jungle
#

but yes

arctic talon
#

And the crone worlds are awful warp corrupted messes

storm jungle
#

its basically like the aftermath of Pompei but replace volcanic destruction with prowling paranormal nightmare ghostlands

arctic talon
#

You forgot the sky literally raining molten glass

#

somebody should make a list of 40k places that have the highest tier loot

not a bad idea actually

eldar expeditions to croneworlds sound like a good time

probably be good theme for a videogame too

Its pretty awful but on the other hand you are getting the materials needed for the future generations of your craftworld so its worth the risk

Drop into a croneworld to collect soul stones and other valuable loot.

Whelp no Drukhari reveals at Nova can’t believe GW would do this to me personally

opaque coyote

Try not to die from either the darmons and slaves of Chaos

#

Or other Eldar wanting soulstones for their own craftworld

storm jungle
#

you didnt listen

opaque coyote
#

GW never fails to absolutely disappoint you in every way possible

#

Also according to Wikipedia, CoD Warzone counts as an extraction shooter

#

But I thought it was a battle royale

mortal shale
#

where you keep your items and everything you do in the game matters unlike warzone where nothing matters just as long as u survive

How dare they invite two of the most prominent Drukhari players in the world to commentate the event and not reveal them

I know tech priests often get seconded to Ordos of the inquisition, but do they ever earn leadership roles in it like interrogator or Inquisitor?

storm jungle
#

An Inquisitor/Interrogator can be anyone so yes.

#

its just not really ever explored because the "image" of an Inquisitor in artwork and other official content is usually always some europena guy/woman in heavy power-armor or victorian dresses

tough haven
#

Damn, artists missing out on a cool asf concept

storm jungle
#

As ever lol

celest dome
#

Martyr did give the caveat that the 'Admech' Inquisitor weren't Tech Priest per se

tough haven
#

Tech priest vibes combined with the mystique of an inquisitor

celest dome

But that's Martyr, which is famous for not really consider lore quite well

storm jungle

Yeah Martyr is a kitchen-sink game

shrewd depot

How was that Esinhorn game from like, 16?

storm jungle

It got removed from Steam.

It was dogshit lol

shrewd depot
#

Oh lol, I remember watching a 'wtf is' about it when it came out

storm jungle

Yeah its kinda gotten lost to the annals of time ngl

I remember seeing promo material for it once upon a time, now its just... "it existed"

celest dome
storm jungle

I guess? I dunno.

#

removed games sometimes come back, might have happened

celest dome

I can still see the Martyr store page

storm jungle
#

We arent talking about Martyr

summer mural
#

people like martyr

#

so fair enough i guess

#

what we really need is chaosgate daemonhunters 2

#

so I can hear more grey knights needing to reload, at which point they go " Hold Brother ! I must SANCTIFY MY WEAPON!"

celest dome
#

I quite liked the Tech Adept in it

#

With the Psyloi constructs

summer mural
#

theres a tech adept in daemonhunters?

celest dome
#

No for Martyr

#

Though Techmarines are in Chaos Gate iirc

summer mural

yeah they are strong af

not only do you get just the techmarine, he comes with a combat servitor squad he can take into battle

normal bluff

Thoughts on new edition of blood bowl?

#

I’m actually exited

shrewd depot
#

Is there lore to bloodbowl? Or is it kinda just like Sonic Olympics lmao

storm jungle
#

Basically TLDR

#

Every army on warhammer fantasy agrees to settle disputes through football instead of war.

#

And its entirely canon.

rose thorn
#

So it’s like, the most peaceful warhammer setting lmao

storm jungle

Well uh

about as peaceful as football can be

but yes KEKW_ogryn

Rugby is even more so tbch

queen laurel

and which one is more popular and recognizable

plush mason
#

tbch i would assume Rugby is outside of the US but then again the NFL does play games in London

winter vessel
#

The only cool thing i've seen that was rugby related was that New Zealander team performing their haka on the field

rocky gale
#

Bloodbowl is visually American Football but on the rules end it's more of a hybrid between American Football and Rugby

plush mason
#

which is funny as American football is just a variation of rugby

#

and use to be so much more violent that several people died and they almost banned the sport completely

queen laurel
rocky gale
#

Do American footballers have the same reputation that Rugby boys do?

plush mason
#

some positions do

#

most linemen are basically gorillias with shoulder pads lol

rocky gale

That's not the reputation I'm talking about

idk what the reputation is then

# plush mason how often did the room become a bar fight?

occasional banter (not the brexit banter). they spared no expense dressing up in their respective teams attire whenever it was superbowl season. think it was just me and two Koreans who weren't really football crazies in the math class of 26 students. Funny enough, the teacher was the only Chargers fan in there.

rocky gale
#

Heard tale of some Rugby boys who used to play a game called Freckles

plush mason
rocky gale
#

I guess the closest to America would be like frat culture

plush mason
#

oh that then yeah

#

the classic American jock is on the school football team

#

or track team

#

a jock is just an athletic frat boy

rocky gale
#

Freckles for anyone curious ||Involves someone pooping into a sock, placing it in the centre of a table, everyone else puts their faces level around the edge of the table and a designated person hits the sock 10 times, the person at the end with the most "Freckles" on their face wins.||

queen laurel

and damn proud of it

rocky gale

It's relevant

sounds like the old imperial fist lore involving the poop vault

oh hey @celest dome yeah we were talking about blood bowl then we went into that for a conversation on comparing which one would fit more don't worry
