Are incendiary bolter rounds a thing?

celest dome
#

Yes

#

Cool, ty

celest dome
#

Dragonrage Bolts Used by the Salamanders and their successors as well as the Deathwatch. Each bolt contains a liquid promethium core that erupts with fury

#

Inferno Bolts Designed to immolate their targets and destroy them with superheated chemical fire. The deuterium core is replaced with an oxy-phosphorus gel, known as Promethium.[1] It should be noted that the Chaos Space Marine Thousand Sons have their own similarly-named but unrelated type of inferno bolts, which are actually psychically-bound slugs that release arcane energies; these slugs explode with sorcerous energies upon impact

#

What exactly are force staffs for psykers? Are they like a computer program for a psyker to put some input(warp magick) and transform them to the outputs?

#

And can a psyker manifest their abilities without the help of a staff?

storm jungle
#

its basically the same way wizards/sorcerors use staffs in fiction

#

its a focusing point for them to launch their spells out of

#

or other utilities

Inbetween scale for some of them

so some of them are stumpy like 1e stormcast

rose thorn
#

and technically have a named mortal in lore

#

technically the gaunt summoners are unqiue characters

#

Since there is only 9 at a time

And…. I wanan say 4 of them are permanently enslaved by archeon

#

so why is it that everyone on the loyalist side of things had their first company of terminators that all had cool names before hand just get renamed to "first company" after the horus heresy besides the dark angels still keeping them as deathwing

unique bronze
#

So 1st company would be the Veterans, so on and so forth

#

I know other Chapters didn't care about the Codex like the space wolves, so their first company is still called the Wolf Guard

#

and the Dark Angels 1st and 2nd company are still called Deathwing and Ravenwing

arctic talon
#

Legion Terminators were just veteran/specialist terminators

#

I.E Ultramarine Fulmentarus were not first company within the first chapter of the legion

#

they were just a specialist Terminator formation, and stuff like the Ebon Keshig were straight up meant to just die in battle

#

also regarding some other formations they were honor guards for the primarchs like the Iron hand Morlocks or Imperial Fist Huscarls.

#

so they literally have 0 reason to exist now considering there is no primarch to be a body guard to. Formations that remained despite formerly being Primarch bodyguards have been adapted/are similar in name only

#

I.E Deathwing Companions evolved into Deathwing Knights, and also no longer wear power armor ever and are only in terminator armor. White Scar Keshigs are no longer Primarch honorguard but are specifically Terminators who are above and beyond the average terminator in the Chapter

#

ect.

if humans had antlers do you think we'd trim them

Like hair? Yeah probably

We’d also likely shape them a great deal

opaque coyote

Also accessorising them

crystal forum
#

i think we'd keep them very short like nubs

#

or maybe not

#

guys would show them off like big dicks

#

im just imagining what it would be like to sit in a full plane with everybody having huge antlers

celest dome
#

Poor/working peoples would probably be forced to keep them short

#

While rich ones would have ostantious ones

crystal forum
#

sounds like the groundwork for a dystopian social commentary book

celest dome
#

Rich people buying antlers to have more impressive antlers (like wigs)
Certain cultures forcing part of their population on keeping their antlers at minimum 💀

opaque coyote
# celest dome While rich ones would have ostantious ones

Sheep have no horns. Goats are the unbelievers that will entire damnation. Those who have horns shall be purged for they are marked by the devil. Oppressors they are with their long and branching paths.

It is simply not enough to saw them off. They must be removed from their scalp. Digging down into their skulls with knife and prayer.

rich people would def have some super weird antler fashion

Now that I think about it how many animals does Warhammer have a centaur for

You have centigors
Dragon ogres
Bull centaurs
Zoats
And if we're counting as long as it has an animal bottom a Medusa from the dark elves

celest dome
#

Boar Centaur

#

In old lore

crystal forum

Though were largely replaced by the Bull Centaur

Standard Centaur also existed in old Lore

But I won't the Hell Pit abomination

Are artificially altered monsters count as centaurs

#

Well since it's not mix with another creature it's just heavily mutated to look like the average crack addict I would count no

opaque coyote
#

...

celest dome
#

I mean if we consider "centaur", part humanoid, part quadruped beast.
It isn't far$

opaque coyote
#

The easy answer is simply that they're an abomination

celest dome

But I think it's different enough

opaque coyote

With the one I listed in the one you listed it has like a human part animal to it

opaque coyote

#

Just call those random things "Chimera".

celest dome
#

Then Zoat could be discounted too.
Also Medusa would be closer to Lamiah

crystal forum
#

mutant with centaur adjacent features

celest dome
#

Or we could also count the Tryton and Mermaids

opaque coyote
#

Since Chimeras are just

#

"A creature with a bunch of various animal parts stuck together"

queen laurel
#

I know they are basically classified as different and the most but it's literally just centaur but snake

crystal forum
#

being a centaur must really suck

#

imagine not being able to scratch your butt

celest dome
#

Then we can count Mermaid (Human+Fish) and Triton (Giant+Fish)

queen laurel

Half human half eel when?

queen laurel
queen laurel
#

Then yes

celest dome
#

Beorg and Skin Wolves ?
They have animal-ish legs

queen laurel
#

Also the upper half has to be human

#

Ish

#

Centigor are basically the standards

#

Out of the list I have I think Medusa is the most tolerable one next to the mermaids

celest dome
queen laurel
celest dome
#

Other than the face Beorg is somewhat human-ish

queen laurel
# celest dome Other than the face Beorg is somewhat human-ish

The reason why I count them as centauroid of having a human upper body and face but the lower legs of of the respective animal

The reason I don't count him is because well fully transformed basically just becomes the animal He's not a mixture of human or Bear is just a giant bipedal bear

#

Same with werewolves

celest dome
#

Closer to the Minautor

#

I don't think there is any other

#

Minotaur

#

eh which ever

queen laurel
# celest dome Closer to the Minautor

Yeah I don't count those as centauroid because most of their body is overtaken by the primary animal and only have the shape of a humanoid

It's not a mixture of animal lower body humanoid upper half

Do you think Skaven cultists are around in AoS?

queen laurel
#

Skaven are Scumbags

#

They would rather dedicate their time on more meaningful things than just preach the great horned rat's name

#

like how to destroy a city or make something to kill them surface dwellers

#

That's their way of preaching the great horned rat

nocturne crest
#

I think they were a small group in fantasy as well. There was one group who worshipped the great rat, but thought they were better than Skaven

storm jungle
#

Yeah you'd need to be like exceptionally brain damaged to worship the horned rat lol

rocky gale
#

They were the Cult of the Yellow Fang

queen laurel

Skaven are scumbags

#

It is literally better to worship the other four chaos gods or all of them as a united enjoyer than even risk uttering the fact that you worship the great horned rat as a non rat

rocky gale
#

Seems like they're a creation of the Warhammer Fantasy RPGs though

#

So are more of a plot hook for an adventure than an established/explored part of the lore

queen laurel

I know it can't happen because of lore reasons for now, but imagine if sigmar made a Skaven stormcast

Why though

You can read about his moral life here

he basically was a egyptian brat

warhammer fantasy was first it was GWS first proper warhammer setting it's your very much more grounded fantasy mind you it's plenty fantastical but you know you're human being good guys look like these which could pass properly as medieval people

But this setting was ended because it wasn't selling good and it was hurting the company but this was ended in one of the worst ways possible

valid needle
#

What way

queen laurel
#

the way they ended the setting narratively was so garbage that plenty of people still are mad at gw about it but it has died down more recently

#

“Why the fuck do skullreapers have a scorpion tail-“

#

Oh yeah the uh

#

What’s it called

#

Brass scorpion

#

I forgot that was an aspect of khrone

#

Khrone is also the god of pigs for some reason

#

Well the god of butchers which corrupted butchers worship a pig

#

….. what do scorpions have to do with khrone?

rose thorn
#

It must be a reference to a movie or something

celest dome
#

Brass Scorpion is a Deamon Engine of Khorne

rose thorn
# celest dome Pigs ?

Yeah, there is a coven of khrone corrupted butchers in hammerhal aqshy who worship him as the god of pigs

rose thorn
outer wave

#

Kalkor the red scorpion

celest dome
#

I mean there are plenty of cults that associate the gods to particular animals, some time it's not really meaningful.
Raven is for both Nurgle and Tzeentcb

CLEAVER KING

sigmar's latest gambit and making sure chaos stays the hell away

They are reforged humans who are heroes who did the right thing by helping people by sacrificing themselves for a noble cause all that stuff

rose thorn
queen laurel
#

because of the reforging they are capable of humbling chaos warriors and chosen

valid needle
#

Also is this god king guy actually a god or is it like a debatable thing like with big e?

celest dome
#

No he is a god

rose thorn
#

He chill tho

celest dome
#

Mortal that became a god

#

By his deed and his might

rose thorn
#

In AOS you like, can just go meet them

#

Khrone’s throne is a literal place anyone can go to and go meet khrone

celest dome
#

And he is owed our respect.
Unlike the seated Skeleton

rose thorn
#

People go and try to fight khrone all the time

#

You can walk to shyish, meet Nagash, tell him to fuck off, and he will touch you and you turn into dust

#

It’s my favorite part about AOS

celest dome
#

Skarsnik became a moon

#

With a small moon that is Gnoblar iirc

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Oh yeah btw there is a giant moon that loves smashing into other planets and eating them

queen laurel
#

and legendary wielder of Ghal maraz

And his vision causes mushrooms to grow and insanity to follow

#

I’m gonna watch the AOS show on warhammer plus and see what I think but first impressions I think I like AOS

rose thorn
#

It’s the god of gitz, wolves, spiders, mushrooms, troggoths, and squish

rose thorn
#

Oh and black talon

#

Very good

valid needle
rose thorn
#

It’s Stormcast Stormcast stormcasts

#

If you don’t like it you probably just don’t stormcasts

#

Be warned

#

Oh yeah also S2D are in season 2

#

So maybe watch it anyway for that

#

I love it because I love stormcasts

# valid needle I’m gonna watch the AOS show on warhammer plus and see what I think but first im...

Oh yeah by the way each faction belongs in a grand alliance

1st is grand alliance of order this is where all the so-called good guys gather up

the elves the dwarves and the humans are the main members

grand alliance chaos are where all the chaos factions fall in

grand alliance death is all the undead stuff zombies ghouls vampires skeletons and the one i showed you the ossiarch

And grand alliance destruction my personal favorite are where the orcs ogres goblins and giants fallin

valid needle
#

Actually yeah I’ve seen one before. The orks are invading a city and i can’t remember his name but some dude walks right into the camp and challenges the boss to a fight.

rose thorn
#

Yup it’s wonderful

queen laurel
#

He's quite a goofy fella you see

valid needle
rose thorn
#

Oh yeah if ur ultra left like me the names are

Orc= orruk
Elf = aelf
Human = human
Dwarf = duardin
Goblin = gits
Ogre = ogor

rose thorn
#

Oh yeah order is the most good and most evil faction in AOS

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

That’s an improtnag fact

#

YOU SAID NIGHTHAUNT? they rock

#

Peak bedsheet ghosts

#

For example, lumineth are literally facists

celest dome
#

Well ye, they're high elves

valid needle
rose thorn
#

They have a city of sigmar and th eh cull the population of people with low grades

#

They practice eugenics on humans they are so fucking evil

queen laurel
#

yeah those are his tortured victims

rose thorn
#

Its comedic

queen laurel
#

they are an entire faction of cursed people

valid needle
rose thorn
#

I went from hating lumineth to liking them because they are the weeb faction and are so insanely evil they are the antagonists in every book they are in

#

They are full of so much anime stuff

rose thorn
#

Surprised you didn’t like Ossiarch

#

Since they are bone cast eternals

#

(They are tax men)

queen laurel
# valid needle Pretty balanced then. I guess Im also a orc hater lol.

Well the dwarves are different because you have the classic warhammer fantasy dwarve, the barbarian dwarves that hammer gold infused with the power of there once ancient war God allowing them to go toe to toe with giant monsters no issue or the technologically savvy dwarves that have literal airships

valid needle
celest dome
queen laurel
#

I'm actually a big fan of the airship dwarves

rose thorn
#

If you start an army, try to get about 4k points in ti before you start another. AOS is alot cheaper than 40K

celest dome
#

🤝

queen laurel
valid needle
rose thorn
#

Also AOS has more named center pieces that you want to bring

#

The cheapest army in 40k, custodies, cost the same average points per dollar as the most expensive AOS army

#

Sons of behemat

#

The maps are smaller so the points are bigger

valid needle
#

Understandable

#

Yeah I’m cutting out the blades for the slaves

queen laurel
valid needle
#

40K was like 80s iirc

plush mason
#

its much newer

#

the end times was what 2014 or something?

rose thorn
#

Yup it released in 2015

celest dome
#

More balanced

#

More spread around (no SM spam

rose thorn
#

It has something you can’t market in 40k

#

It has a magic system

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Also it has a prayer system

celest dome
#

AoS started around 2010 ish

#

15

rose thorn
plush mason
#

its still funny they did the end times while they had CA making TWWH1

#

imo they should have had TWWH be AOS

rose thorn
#

Tbf AOS might have too much content

#

7 world maps, each of. Which are completely unqiue

plush mason
#

and at the time it likely didnt have enough established to really covert into other media

rose thorn
#

Yeha AOS got to the point it surpassed old world was 2nd edition

celest dome
#

Nah, it was too early for TWWAoS

#

Even now it would be somewhat too early imo

#

A skirmish type rts though

#

That would be neat

hallow saddle
#

so they both did a reset within a couple years

rose thorn
#

And people hated the new space marines and complain to this day

rocky gale
#

They're wrong though

hallow saddle
#

i think they genuinely did bring a lot of people back and new people in

rocky gale
#

Primaris cooler

hallow saddle
#

so it worked imo

#

and yeah they look better as models

#

theyve even re-scaled stormcast already

#

the original ones are all out of production now iirc

#

the new ones also look better

rocky gale
#

Thank god, more Space Marine leaks

#

The poor fellas were suffering for another model

spare osprey
#

I thought the other one died as a boy

storm jungle

are you fucking kidding me

this si Severus Agemman?

I see one similarity and that’s the knee

#

And even then it’s different

rose thorn
#

huh weird i didnt think gw would have a named ultra marine be repersented by a generic model

#

let alone the first captian

spare osprey

They’ve done it for most of the the UM captains

Based

rocky gale
#

Yea like this is Captain Acheron from SM2

spare osprey
#

Also here’s Severus before the update, generic model as well

rocky gale

Atleast the Captains

Yeah you can tell from the drawing style

valid needle
storm jungle
#

Unfortunately thats the reality with these

#

it will sometimes get cropped, thats the tragic part

spare osprey
#

Also that box kinda feels like the big tonal shift for marines tbh. So makes a bit of sense to see more “modern” 40k art

#

Like those chaos minis are basically how chaos has looked since

#

But it’s funny cause they still have old marine size

hallow saddle
#

theyre not that small

#

they are smaller but not crazy small

#

but ya the proportions are better

#

theyre still cool sculpts, just pop them on a bit of cork tile on the base and they look fine

#

the hellbrute in that box is sick too, the pose is cool

#

and the cultists are classic

rose thorn
valid needle
queen laurel
rose thorn
#

The space marine box is great for 40k tbh

#

You could buy it like twice

rocky gale
#

Hell even three times

#

3 Command Squads, 6 squads of infantry, 3 Leman Russ and if your opponent is feeling generous you could run the 6 light sentinels and 2 heavy weapons squads

median star
#

i thought abt making a 30k army after i finish 40k one but never considered making it a guard army for 30k might just do that instead of nightlords

rose thorn
#

Thsi is probably the best HH exclusive box

#

Since its admehc units you want anyway

#

You can buy the infinitely

#

But terrible from 40k

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

Oh really?

arctic talon
#

due to the fact its split between Reductor and Cybernetica

rocky gale
arctic talon
#

And you can't run Castellax as battleline

#

without a cybernetica priest

rose thorn
#

Oh

#

Lmao

rocky gale
#

Add them to your Infantry squads to make bigger bricks

arctic talon
#

but thallax are awful as battleline without a reductor priest

#

so now you need 2 tech priests

#

except 2 tech priests of that high rank

#

are an issue to run

#

because then you need another detachment

#

and then

#

you get the idea

#

LOL

rose thorn
#

How the fuck does this box run in HH combat patrol

arctic talon
#

Well

rose thorn
#

It’s the typhus box

#

All over again

arctic talon
#

Mechanicum army building rules are a clusterfuck

#

LOL

arctic talon
#

Heresy is non functional below 2k points

#

lol

#

The game does not play properly

arctic talon
#

anyways the Mechanicum box is awkward for 40k

#

since the thanatar is WAY Too fucking fat

#

Thallax can make good katapron proxies if you have bases

#

and castellax are good kastellan proxies

#

but the Thanatar is fucking big

rose thorn
#

Don’t you run the big guy as a dune crawler

arctic talon
#

He's way too big

#

but yeah the base size is right

rose thorn
#

Wtf

arctic talon
#

Thantar is taller then an armiger lol

#

Its a siege automata

#

so its gona be huge

rose thorn
#

These should be in 40k this is so fucked

spare osprey
#

Oh HELL no

arctic talon
#

lol

#

they're just only used on forge worlds for defense

#

Thallax are around

#

Castellax had some uh issues during the heresy

#

so got mostly retired

rose thorn
#

But the like ‘use 40k admech in HH’ is the milita

arctic talon
#

Well

#

they're also around lore wise

spare osprey
#

WHY DO THEY GET TO BE HAPPY

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

Admech and Mechanicum

#

are the torment nexus

#

because you realize

rose thorn
#

OMG
