I remember you were pissed and locked the chat while someone called the cops

"khorne doesnt care if you piss on his icon, it just a price of metal"

rose thorn
#

What wouldn’t khorne actually care because it’s dishonorable

misty vector
#

They say that khorne wouldnt care if one guy denounced him

near wasp
#

I mean every follower of chaos defaces idols to other gods and stuff khorne cares more for the blood spilled than his icon

languid meadow
#

this could just be an AOS/Fantasy thing but Im pretty sure the only thing Khorne finds "dishonorable" is like the magic of each universe so mages/psykers

#

But I could be wrong on the 40k front

#

the rest he doesn't give a shit

near wasp
#

40k khorne isn't so honorable

#

It's all just blood and gore

wind canyon
#

Blood for the Blood God you could say

languid meadow
#

I mean it's the same in every setting he's in

#

but he just doesn't like magic

near wasp
#

He would love a psyker if that psyker could make a person bleed from every pore

misty vector
#

Does khorne really care about honor and fair fights if he wants his followers to run into a village and kill everyone

near wasp
#

He doesn't really care about honor

#

It's something he uses to bait people into serving him

"As befits Karanak's favoured status, he has been gifted with a superior version of the Brass Collar worn by other Flesh Hounds. Possessed of Khorne's hatred for sorcery, but the Blood God's wrathful vengeance, the thick metal band withstands psychic powers as easily as its wearer's scaled skin repels rainwater. Karanak always remembers those who dare cast their despised magics at him in battle; though it may take years, the hound will inevitably have his vengeance, and once his prey has been killed, will take great satisfaction in chewing upon its sorcerous bones." - Chaos Daemons 8th ed codex

#

he still hates sorcerers in 40k

The brotherhood

they were working with xenos

i thought you meant the fleet based guys

valid needle
#

I think you mean Fulgrims one he done

crystal forum
#

are you talking about the istvaneans

#

those guys were just caught in the crossfire of the HH tbh

valid needle
#

The brotherhood were a purely human planet and were massacred because Horus found out they had STCs

crystal forum
#

wasn't that because horus wanted the STC's to get the mechanicum's favor?

crystal forum
#

ye well that's a bit outside the norm

#

in fact if i remember correctly everybody was surprised by how quickly horus started the war

unique bronze
#

The Interex fellas or is that someone else

crystal forum
#

interex was the xenos lovers

#

those guys were killed because xenos

#

and they had anathema sword

valid needle
storm jungle
#

Eresus did it

valid needle
#

Yes

storm jungle
#

Horus tho is pretty easy to manipulate so uhhh

valid needle
#

Yeah

#

But to be fair

#

During the interex thing he did keep saying this shouldn’t happen and he did try speak to the interex even whilst in battle

#

But then obviously he went fuck it we ball at the end

storm jungle
#

Yeah pre-Heresy horus is hilariously Nice Guy

#

I get what Abnett was doing but its very comical at times

storm jungle
valid needle
#

All of the wolves actually

storm jungle
#

Tbh thats not that weird

#

hes literally just a good person lol

#

its why i said its almost comical

queen laurel

because when he goes chaos its like a INSTANT heelturn, like someone just flipped a button on his back

#

^ literally Horus

Just wish little Horus and Abbadon listened to Garviel about Erebus

so basically detroit

rose thorn

so hes from nicer necromunda

median star

#

I did like that someone mentioned each member of the mournival represented a piece of horus

#

Aximand bore their primarchs looks more hence the nickname little horus, Abaddon his ambition, torgaden his physical strenght, and garviel his humanity, apparently

This is one of the coolest 40K pieces I’ve ever seen

#

loken's whole thing really is that he was an outsider

#

he wasn't deep in the kool aid like the others

#

the point of the mournival being to second guess horus while also being filled with people who always agree with him is pretty funny though

#

but it does show that horus wasn't a tyrant before his encounter with chaos since he was actually capable of taking some amount of criticism

Most chaos characters are extremely old/scarred/and or ill

I think a bunch of the slaaneshi characters have hair

But yea like trace back the lines of my 4 great grandparents and you've got

Rich and owns linen mills, Rich and owns shipping buisness, rich and owns large swathes of farmland, rich and owns diamond mines.

Then in modern day we got nothing.

Did we even finish before the war ended

there were like 4 factions who wanted to be the first to fly the flag

and then there was arguement over like who gets honoured the guys who actually raised the flag or the guys in the picture raising the flag
