Oh.

Rip daemons in 40k.

Because they said it like 5 times this edition

They said daemons are legends next edition

Interesting

#

Are there any actual instances of ogryn using pickaxes in combat before darktide

cyan merlin
#

Is there any music that canonically exists in warhammer

storm jungle
#

its deleted

cyan merlin
#

Sad

storm jungle
#

The old vraks chaos ogryns are one of em

#

otherwise artwise no, they do here and there in some books

rose thorn
#

also an ogyrn cna def use the power pick

cyan merlin
#

You could extrapolate that they’d be good with picaxes from- I think it was mentioned their homeworld was a mining planet with high gravity?

rose thorn
#

assuming the ogryn slave mining camps use pickaxes

storm jungle
#

ogryns arent a species

#

they are just a sub-branch of humanity

#

Ogryns (Homo sapiens gigantus)[9] are the largest and most physically powerful type of abhuman.[4a] They make ideal warriors and are often recruited into Imperial Guard regiments to be used as close assault shock troops.[29]

Will Era of ruin give me a good rundown of what happened after horus died, I know it's an anthology, but maybe I should just wait for scouring

#

I read the diocletion part of it

Only for that excitement to be ROBBED from me

Lmfao

arctic talon
#

Warwick looks cool

#

But 2XKO did not need another Zaunite champion lol

languid meadow
#

Apparently Viktor was leaked to be a champ soonish

#

So you're getting another

arctic talon
#

💀

#

Bruh

#

Yeah idfc anymore

#

Add Caitlyn

#

Also jokes aside there’s not a Piltover champion yet

#

Because vi got reclassified as Zaun in 2XKO for some reason

cyan merlin
#

Hey is there a specific reason we’re fighting a Nurgle cult and not a cult to any other chaos god

languid meadow
#

Lore wise because of Nox Alpha a nurgle corrupted planet

#

meta wise?

#

it's easier to make a horder shooter game out of nurgle than any other chaos god

cyan merlin
#

Fair enough
Was somewhat curious of if we had gotten a version of Darktide for the other chaos cults and what that would look like
Though other than the terrifying concept of a Crushrager for khorne, I can’t imagine much would be different

outer wave
#

It probably wouldnt be much different, just red guys, blue guys, or pink guys instead of green guys

unique bronze
#

would we get the pink terrors instead of the beast of nurgle if it were tzeentch

outer wave
#

I imagine it'd be more akin to Flamers of Tzeentch

cyan merlin
#

Pretty sure a slaaneshi Darktide would have to be X-rated

outer wave
#

You cant really do a Screamer because they're more about swarming than being one thick lad

arctic talon
#

lol

outer wave
#

Pink Horrors feel a bit too weak

arctic talon
#

Slaanesh isn't just sex

#

Pink horrors would be a crusher equivelent or something

#

tbh

outer wave
#

Yeah

arctic talon
#

screamer or flamer of tzeentch works as a BoN equivelent

outer wave
#

How big is the screamer though?

#

I dont think they get as big as BoNs

cyan merlin
#

Aren’t BoNs in Darktide already a lot smaller than they should be

outer wave
#

I dunno, they still seem pretty big

arctic talon
#

screamer is a flat fuck

#

also the BoN's are oversized

languid meadow
#

size was inconsistent anyway

arctic talon
#

lol

#

compared to the mini

#

but it doesn't matter

#

daemons vary wildly in size in lore

unique bronze
#

imagine if they added nurglings lol and all they try to do is try and get behind you.. cuz.. they like going up peoples asses ive heard

arctic talon
#

ogryn and plague ogryn

languid meadow
#

they were in VT but they kind of just ran away

arctic talon
#

mini size

#

plague ogryn got a huge size buff

#

lol

unique bronze
languid meadow
#

darktide made em so big WH+ used them like GUCOs

cyan merlin
#

Imagine if Pogryns were the same size as crushers

#

The chaos

languid meadow
#

I just want plaguebearers

arctic talon
#

god the forgeworld plague ogryns were ugly as fuck lol

cyan merlin
#

What are plaguebearers?

languid meadow
#

the basic nurgle daemons

dapper gyro
#

Some BoN are bigger and stronger, enough that they need a few squad of marines to deal with.

languid meadow
#

there's a skull of one in the game but we don't have an alive one yet

unique bronze
#

that lil one over there

cyan merlin
#

Reminds me of My Singing Monsters

dapper gyro
#

Those pure demon are at least half the power of the monstrosity, but more numerous. Kind of the "weakened" monstrosity modifier in darktide.

unique bronze
#

think seeing that if it was in darktide would actually be pretty terrifying

cyan merlin
#

So they’d be a step between a crusher and a monstrosity?

#

Like a mini-boss?

dapper gyro
#

Kind of

#

Daemon don't usually come in small group, but a full invasion.

tough haven
#

In theory

cyan merlin
#

Feels like the ritual to summon a greater daemon is maybe a few too many steps forward

dapper gyro
#

Hence why chaos cult and lesser stray daemons are one thing, but full blow daemon spawn require serious intervention from the Imperium.

cyan merlin
#

So if plaguebearers show up does Grendyl just completely lose control of the situation?

dapper gyro
#

Pretty much

#

Unless the planet priority is absolute, they would rather deny the daemon victory by... exterminatus.

unique bronze
#

How important is moebian steel

cyan merlin
#

Very
Allegedly

#

I think Grendyl is yet to leverage the re-discovery to get more resources

unique bronze
#

you'd think more support would come your way then

cyan merlin
#

You would think a lot of things about the imperium

#

Mostly competence

unique bronze
#

Isn't the inquisition really resourceful tho

cyan merlin
#

As with many things in 40k: It depends

dapper gyro
#

The inquisition itself generally don't have resource to fight a full planet scale war without requiring assistances.

daring creek
cyan merlin
#

Fair point actually

arctic talon
#

There’s already a hole in the materium

#

The fact beast of nurgles can be summoned

cyan merlin
#

Also chaos spawn right?

arctic talon
#

Chaos spawn aren’t daemons

cyan merlin
#

They aren’t?

outer wave
#

Nope

#

They're typically mortals that couldnt resist warp energies going through their body

unique bronze
#

a creature of the warp?

outer wave
#

So things like blessings from chaos gods? That can chaos spawn you

#

Or you can be deliberately chaos spawn'd by a sorcerer using warp magicks on you

#

Its one of the reasons why you sort of have to go hard or go home with worshiping chaos

#

Its also one of the dangers of rising up the ranks in heretic life

arctic talon
#

Very powerful chaos spawn are often failed daemon prince ascensions

cyan merlin
#

Holy shit

arctic talon
#

But the Darktide spawn are likely not that

outer wave
#

Darktide spawn are probably mutated ragers

arctic talon
#

Too many blessings

outer wave
#

Dreg ragers most likely

arctic talon
#

Along with the drugs

#

Likely is what makes the Darktide chaos spawn

outer wave
#

Well, the drugs are likely a blessing

cyan merlin
#

Yeah the situation probably isn’t bad enough for anyone to be ascending

outer wave
#

I cannot see them not being somehow Nurglite in nature

arctic talon
#

Imo the drugs are likely infused with some Nurgle plague stuff

outer wave
#

So are we taking in Nurgle magic mixed with typical 40k combat drugs?

cyan merlin
#

Horrifying

outer wave
#

Damn we all got a bit of Grandpa in us

arctic talon
#

I like to imagine it’s some frenzon mix

#

Along with nurgle stuff

languid meadow
#

I do like the rager -> mutant -> cspawn theory

outer wave
#

Same

arctic talon
#

The stims we use in game are

#

Probably not

#

Corrupted

outer wave
#

But how are we getting our hands on uncorrupted drugs? I mean, they're in the hands of the dregs and scabs

#

Wouldnt they be corrupted just by being made in the hands of heretics?

#

I know video game and all that, but still

cyan merlin
#

Would love if the game made more use of stims somehow

#

I find myself either never having enough of them or never needing them

unique bronze
#

I just use one right away when I find it cuz it usually just sits on me when i pick it up lmao

outer wave
#

Same

unique bronze
#

Only thing I save is the Med Stim

dapper gyro
#

The stim in gameplay is only for it, gameplay.

#

The stim is likely refined or come from the inquisition stock itself.

#

The of drug in combat is all over the place in 40K, it is not out of ordinary that the guards have it.

arctic talon
#

While the stims being picked up ingame is gameplay

outer wave
#

But what about the stims we found in the Ampitheatre? I assume those are similar to the ones that were given out to the Moebian 21st

dapper gyro
#

Those were to track down the stim production.

#

Which the strike team was sent to destroy right after.

outer wave

Mmmm I see

or however long it was

daring creek

Wow that sounds literally maddening

shadow plover

it was three days, but yeah it was a very taxing three days pupper

daring creek
#

Yeah I'd fucking think so latvianpatrick

storm jungle
#

Yeah he needed like a doctor at the end

daring creek
#

YEAH.

storm jungle

because human beings are not made to live without social contact of any kind locked in a box lol

daring creek

The human mind gets fucked up

#

In isolation

Or darkness

Yep.

which is why Isolation cells are inhumane as fuck

Why else

daring creek
#

Exposing myself to literal radiation for science

They have done worse for science

Like when they made somebody play darktide for 57 years over the summer

daring creek

That sounds fun

taze em doofus

rose thorn

Mike brooks is an anagram for

Kreim books

daring creek
#

Imagine going through all that training, hardship and indoctrination to become a space marine

#

and after a single battle, you're fucking cripplingly injured and then you're installed into a dreadnought

#

That is fucking hilarious, I wonder how often that actually happens.

arctic talon
#

Single battle they’ll just let you bleed out

#

lol

daring creek
#

Aw man

#

That's not cool.

arctic talon
#

Dreadnoughts are reserved for people who are seen as important or valuable enough to keep alive

daring creek
#

That's cringe.

#

:/

#

Everyone should be allowed a dready..

shadow plover
#

Would be cringe to waste resources to some bitch ass punk who got them selves mortally wounded in a single battle...

queen laurel
# daring creek That's cringe.

.....You are so adamant about being put inside one that you didn't read the part that you have to be an important Marine to be in one?

daring creek
#

Nohp

#

:3

#

I'm being fr, Dreadnoughts are what introduced me to 40k

#

The Astartes video as well, but the Dreadnought one...

#

so good

#

After that someone recommended me Ghost In The Shell

#

and I must say, quality Clanker slop.

#

I need to read the manga as well. I read some of it in the library, it was pretty cool!!

#

It's soh gud

young pecan
# storm jungle Depends on your worth

Wouldn't it depend on the severity of the situation? Probably the chapters' beliefs and general drive but I'm sure most chapters would go for a save if they reliably could

storm jungle
#

Marines are assholes

queen laurel

theres been cases of Apothecaries extracting geneseed from live injured marines lol

sacred bluff

Jimmy the newbie

Or makar face mangler that has killed 20 warbosses in his career

young pecan

Why are you in dbd server

do you have brain damage

storm jungle

you are in a warhammer server

i think we all know which party has the biggest cranial damage

daring creek

Yeah them obviously

shadow plover
#

don't listen to her, she's a mod in a warhammer server

daring creek
#

Because I'm a normal person in every aspect

#

Yeah she's like...crazy....

She told me I was crazy for some reason...

they feel so adjacent to League players

The only thing I know is get Magnus and ahriman cause why not getting a primarch

#

Would Smut depicting the emperor as the greatest lover of all time be heresy?

storm jungle
#

depends on the cult

The imperium's main religion?

celest dome
#

Probably wouldn't be seen well

nocturne crest
#

Hen again, would it be heresy to say the god emperor of mankind was a awful lover?

dapper gyro

Considering many places using their "all loving" gods to spread hate, nah. They would spin everything as good deeds.

I’ve had that profile for a while

celest willow
#

yk something I love about warhammer is how everyone is expendable in the eyes of the imperium

#

on a large scale every human is just a rusty cog In a unholy machine

#

there is something poetic about even the emperor being a sacrifice for the imperium

storm jungle
#

its pretty much the same as IRL so that checks out

#

human lives in a large majority dont care to the people standing above them

storm jungle

you're weird

celest willow
storm jungle

the people in charge just arent as upfront about it minus some lol

#

in the Imperium your life is outright said to be worthless and that you should be glad to give it

spring cairn
#

i should be in charge

celest willow
#

irl you just feel like everyone is forced to have all their life funneled into the rich

#

same with the imperiuim ik but with the imperiuim they are still tools

dapper gyro
#

That's what you feel when you live in safety.

celest willow
#

cause I dont think their is a drop of safety in both scenarios

dapper gyro
#

Well, for the top people, you are very worthless. The entire economy system is not there for you, but for the top of the chain.

celest willow

I doubt it

Y'know

#

The funniest part about 40k is that Veteran's Assistance is

#

Similar to ours

#

And by that I mean it fucking sucks

#

And is wildly dependant on luck

celest willow
#

the elite of the imperium are expendable

storm jungle
celest dome
celest willow
celest dome
#

And even the rich in RL are expendable, when richer people throw them under the bus

celest dome
# celest willow wdym?

Poor people in the Imperium are much more likely to be thrown away and be expendable than the richers (Like the Noble families)

celest willow
celest willow
#

sometimes even being part will still get you and the planet your on scorched regardless of who you are

celest dome
#

Same way that they are in RL in theory
Most of the time it doesn't matter

#

Even in the case of an Exterminatus some will have the means to get off world and be saved

celest willow
#

sometimes the inquisition doesnt give a damn who they are glassing if they deem the whole planet a lost cause

storm jungle
#

nobles usually get away

#

they got the best spacecraft/contingencies unfortunately lol

celest willow
#

am just saying the IRl elites actually get a better deal than the warhammer ones

storm jungle
#

In my humble opinion we should eat them both

#

but thats just me

it does make sense when you consider how stretched the imperium is

Yes.

Spectre my beloved

I don't think I've gotten Spectre yet

The closest I've gotten to that is both forms of The Grey I think

outer wave
#

You want me to give you hints or straight up how to get her?

young pecan
outer wave
young pecan
#

Every time I go to murder her without saying anything it locks me into a 100% I die avenue, or me and her both dying

outer wave
#

Really?

young pecan
#

Or do I have to not say anything on the staircase going down too?

outer wave
#

You say ABSOLUTELY nothing to her

young pecan
#

Ohhh okay

outer wave
#

You go down the stairs, kill her, dont check body

young pecan
#

Assuming Spectre

outer wave
#

Im probably gonna say Spectre or Adversary

young pecan
#

Adversary is sick

outer wave
#

Happily ever after is also really nice

young pecan
#

Hard to pick one but I'll say the one with the damsel where you originally stay in the cabin but leave with her in the epilogue, the witch, or the thorn(?)

outer wave
#

Thorn is good

young pecan
#

Thorn is so good

#

I love that arc

outer wave
#

Its a great arc

#

Me being a freak would say Tower or Apatheosis, but she's kind of a cunt

#

Prisoner is pretty cute too

young pecan
#

Tower is neat but yeah she's a dick

outer wave
#

Yeah, but tall woman hot so

young pecan
outer wave
#

Drowned Grey is probably my favorite Grey

#

Its genuinely a terrifying ending

#

Burning Grey is kinda cute in a fucked up way though

#

She clearly still cares despite being a Grey Lady

young pecan
#

You only get it if you're evil and fucked up anyway so

#

Perfect fit

outer wave
#

I do believe they changed that about Drowned Grey, yeah? You used to get it if you killed Prisoner and walked out without realizing she wanted out by taking her head with you

#

I dunno how you get it now

#

I forgot

young pecan
#

I think I got it from ||trusting her and her being forced to kill me, then immediately going down and killing her in chapter two||

#

But I could be wrong

#

She says something about "oh so you're getting petty revenge"

outer wave
#

I think you're right

#

I think its straight up icing her

#

That method I talked about earlier is now for the Caged route

unique bronze
#

I mean I like story driven games as much as the next one, im just the type that goes "eh" at a game, but then when I do play it, I'd be "holy shit, this is great" kind of gamer

storm jungle
#

Alright FINE ill play it

outer wave
#

HOORAY!!!!

storm jungle
#

storm jungle
young pecan
# unique bronze Is it that good?

It is a love story about perspective, even if many of the perspectives are not of love
And it is incredible if that sounds interesting to you

young pecan
young pecan
outer wave
#

No, but it was joke art made by the creators

young pecan
#

Such a good game and it's not that heavy on committing yourself to a long story

outer wave
#

Mhmmmmm

#

Its not Umineko

#

Which is peak fiction but Slay the Princess is not even close to as long

young pecan
#

You can play it in like ten minute sessions if you really wanted to

hallow saddle
#

make ur own kindred & hold

#

OC

young pecan
#

It has much more content than one run's worth though

hallow saddle
#

thats the hobby baby

storm jungle
young pecan
#

So very replayable as well

crystal forum
#

no more epic space opera

#

just dwarves being dwarves

storm jungle
#

you never heard of them?

crystal forum
#

i should start with ironheads

arctic talon
#

From Munda

#

Also imo GW didn’t want to do

#

Generic miner

#

Is my bet

crystal forum
#

gives me an excuse to do munda army

storm jungle
#

100%

#

its one of the reasons why the army originally flopped

#

because they had like 0 identity

#

lol

arctic talon
#

What an army lol

crystal forum
#

wolf can you use munda units in 40k

arctic talon
#

No but they’re extremely easy proxies in guard/gsc/lov

#

lol

sudden compass
crystal forum
#

they have a book now

storm jungle
crystal forum
#

also

#

steeljacks heartEyes

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Ironhead squats don’t have juves

storm jungle
#

do not grip the robot

arctic talon
#

Which makes them the lamest necromunda gang/j

sudden compass
arctic talon
#

Even the enforcers get juves

#

lol

storm jungle
sudden compass
#

I did see they had ai kin though

storm jungle
#

this is me with space marines

arctic talon
#

Give a kid some flak armor, a bolter and tell him to shoot some gangers

sudden compass
storm jungle
crystal forum
#

smart feller

arctic talon
#

Juves are so fucking stupid and silly they wrap around to being cool

sudden compass
#

So Ironheads, ya say? And Steeljacks? Or was that second one somethin else?

arctic talon
#

There’s only like, 1 LoV unit style I dislike

storm jungle
#

Steeljacks are beefier Votann robots

#

Ironheads are necromunda-based Votann

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

they lost their ancestor core

#

so they have gone native

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

If you want miner squats you can just steal them for LoV in 40K lol

sudden compass
#

Oh yeah, i definitely like that look more

#

Rustic

crystal forum
#

frontier

hallow saddle
#

ironheads rule as well

crystal forum
#

space cowboys

storm jungle
#

the are based on the first squat minis with the industrial aesthetic ye

#

even the helmets

hallow saddle
#

very much so

#

and the visors

crystal forum
#

their guns look a little bad but the armor is good

arctic talon
#

They’re based on the epic minis

#

Specifically

#

Not the actual full scale ones

#

Aside from the helmets

crystal forum
#

look at that heavy bolter thing

arctic talon
#

Any necromunda gang that does not allow you to arm a 13 year old with a gun and have them get their limbs blown off is a bad gang

young pecan
#

Are Votann treated as abhumans/mutants in the Imperium, xenos, or as fellow people?

arctic talon
#

This makes Ironhead squats the worst gang

young pecan
#

I know nothing about them other than le space dwarf

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

But they don’t like that

#

Ultimately it’s whatever is convienant for them at the time

storm jungle
young pecan
#

I could only imagine as much

arctic talon
#

But they do not consider themselves abhumans

#

They consider themselves wholly separate from humanity

crystal forum
#

GW store treats them as xenos

storm jungle
storm jungle
#

they are far removed from humanity

#

especially genetic makeup wise

crystal forum
#

i still think they count as a human adjacent faction

storm jungle
#

They really dont

crystal forum
#

in my fleshy skull

young pecan
#

What isolation for like 10k years does to a mf

storm jungle
#

literally lol

arctic talon
#

More

young pecan
#

That is the deal with them right

arctic talon
#

lol

storm jungle
#

yeah its like

#

30k years?

arctic talon
#

They isolated themselves in the late DAOT

young pecan
#

DAYUM

arctic talon
#

And ignored the entire age of strife

crystal forum
#

they also haven't changed for a long time

#

after they got the cloning process running

arctic talon
#

Much like whfb dwarfs

#

Change is slow

#

lol

#

But they get a lot more fucking experimental

crystal forum
#

the in lore reason for why votaan suddenly appear everywhere now is because of the great rift iirc

crystal forum
#

it went right through the galactic core

storm jungle
sudden compass
#

Now if i could just get helms that look like old diver helmets or the bouncers

storm jungle
#

the lore outright says League votann can look different

#

especially on the mutation scale

young pecan
#

Wouldn't there be a mini language barrier between them and the Imperium though?

storm jungle
#

since the Cores can meddle with their physical appearance

sudden compass
young pecan
#

If they were gone for 30k

storm jungle
storm jungle
#

or give a shit to really

#

unless again trading

#

pretty much like WHF

storm jungle
#

UMGAK

arctic talon
#

But they don’t give a shit

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

You deal with their shitty gothic

#

Or you don’t

#

human

#

The LoV got that classic flavor of WHFB xenophobic superiority down

#

lol

#

Which was missing in 40K big time

young pecan
#

How different is LoV's weaponry, if they're on par with the Imperium at all?

storm jungle
#

They are above it

crystal forum
#

their tech is way better

young pecan
#

Oh wow

#

Well I guess I shouldn't be surprised actually

storm jungle
#

a lot of their tech is "human"-esque since it comes from the same-ish STC template

#

but its actually innovatied/kept well

young pecan
#

But I didn't expect them to thrive in their situation as well as they seemingly did

crystal forum
#

fun fact, lov actually improve their technology. it's not degrading at all

young pecan
#

Living in caves beats living in fascism, who would have thought

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Generally

storm jungle
#

they are VERY corporate-group'y in the way they operate

#

its like uhhh

#

RPG games clan structure?

young pecan
#

DRG?

arctic talon
#

No

#

More corrupt

storm jungle
#

you sometimes need to join a Kin congolmerate

#

and like ally with other bigger Leagues

young pecan
#

Now this is epic

storm jungle
#

its a REALLY big political sphere

arctic talon
#

Yeah

young pecan
#

Is there canon union busting

arctic talon
#

No

storm jungle
#

no because Kin arent like that

crystal forum
#

they dont have unions

arctic talon
#

Kin are

storm jungle
#

every Kin likes the job they do, if they dont they switch

arctic talon
#

Hardwired into this way of thinking

dire loom
storm jungle
#

ironkin included

crystal forum
#

kin love their social structures

storm jungle
#

everyone is free

arctic talon
#

If contributing to the greater whole

#

If that makes sense

dire loom
young pecan
#

Oh that's interesting

sudden compass
storm jungle
#

they are very uhhh

#

whats the word

#

Egalitarian?

arctic talon
#

Yeah

young pecan
#

So even the janitors love their jobs and are treated decently?

arctic talon
#

Yes

storm jungle
#

Yeah and again if they dont they can switch

arctic talon
#

^

storm jungle
#

theres not really a forced job

arctic talon
#

Worst case scenario

#

They clone up new kin

storm jungle
#

^

arctic talon
#

Whenever there’s jobs to be filled

#

And no one wants it

crystal forum
#

well the core does

arctic talon
#

They just adjust the new batch

#

Well yeah

#

The core adjusts the new batch to be more inclined

young pecan
#

Oh is LoV reproduction just cloning?

arctic talon
#

Into that sort of work

#

Yep

crystal forum
#

the core is surveilling all of this

arctic talon
#

No sex

#

All Kin are vat grown designer babies

#

Based on multiple cloneskiens

#

Which are basically “lines”

young pecan
#

You will have no women, you will live in a cave, and you will unironically like it I guess

crystal forum
#

their core decides what genes to put in a new kin

arctic talon
#

They have women

crystal forum
#

or ironkin

young pecan
#

Ohh okay

arctic talon
#

The LoV were

#

A dark age of technology experiment/expedition

#

They started with normal people

crystal forum
#

i'd say it was more like a contingency plan

storm jungle
crystal forum
#

but who knows

arctic talon
#

But whether a Kin dies they basically get broken down into a genetic slurry to be processed into information for the cloneskiens and their memories are integrated into the ancestor core

storm jungle
#

the Votann Cores just make the process faster

arctic talon
#

Yeah

arctic talon
#

There’s no point in sex

arctic talon
#

They’re uh

#

Pretty efficient people

#

lol

#

They hate waste

storm jungle
#

its VERY integral to their culture for their bodies to be returned to the Core

arctic talon
#

They really hate waste

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Everything is recycled in their society

#

Including you grab

crystal forum
#

some kin have their neural patterns copied to a hard drive thing before dying so they can return to the ancestor

storm jungle
#

thats just for the Scouts

#

the Hernkyn

arctic talon
#

Yeah

storm jungle
#

since they travel WAY far

crystal forum
#

it's pretty cool

arctic talon

storm jungle

young pecan
#

Votann is way cooler than 40k takes the time to let on

#

More rep when

arctic talon
#

They’re cool

#

They show up in rulebooks

storm jungle
#

They are REALYL cool

arctic talon
#

And had 1 novel

#

Oh also their unique melee weapons are cool

storm jungle
#

yeah atm they are appearing/popping up in random places in lore

arctic talon
#

I like dark star weapons

#

lol

storm jungle
#

so they are setting their hooks in

crystal forum
#

it's a faction that hasn't be ruined by old lore writing

arctic talon
#

Weird ass fucking alloy

crystal forum
#

ofc it's peak

storm jungle
#

tbh

#

it has

green loom
arctic talon
#

That’s found near gravitational anomalies

storm jungle
#

thats why they got discontinued

#

LMAO

arctic talon
#

And the stuff just

#

Fucking kills you on contact

#

If you get cut by it

storm jungle
#

Shame any novel will ignore that if its against a named character

arctic talon
#

Dark star weapons are also pretty

#

Which helps

#

Mmmm purple

storm jungle
#

they got that strawberry jam look

#

very based

kin also like wearing power armor regularly

It’s not like muhrine power armor

It’s much more practical

And less armored

But it doesn’t matter

storm jungle
