Don’t worry about it
the people designing the space marine armors IRL
legit had no idea
how these work
Marine helmets have always been cursed
lol
lol
i like beakies
Do not think about how any of them are air proof
the fact that they get the option to remove the top for now reason other than looking cool with a half helmet
They literally can’t be practically speaking
They had no idea how the pauldrons don't block sight
Edgelord points
So yea
They could do this with every MK of power armor
lol
Starting with 4
really? never seen that
There’s half mask MK7
silence hive scum
^
I do really like how Titus puts on his helmet in the secret level episode
Mostly csm
Dev blog 
Lore wise yes
i'm half expecting space marine 3 to have the armour slide out of their ass like marvel movie iron man suits
Tabletop wise never seen it
i need to see this
lol
damn
Alright here's the personalities and here's the voices tell me if you recognize anyone
Could convert it easily
GORDON?
GORDON FREEMAN?
Yes I'm picking you Sigsen
Wait WHAT
frowning deepens
Oh shit where was that mentioned
Half mask MK6 without beak
In the news right now the new forum
aw damn no beak
Shit
Lizzie did... something?
thanks, didn't see it on the forum
Nobody had replied to it
10,000 years more of primaris debate go
battle brother looks like he's dressed to spray paint his bike
HIRED GUN PERSONALITY LETS FUCKING GO, IMMA MAKE V FROM CYBERPUNK
Probably is
lol
Gotta clean up that white and blue
the primaris debate never ends, to the debatepits with you
those chainsaw bayonets are fugly
I’m so fucking tired
i like the normal bayonets in the mark 3 box better
I’ve had to listen to this shit for almost 10 years now
All the people putting the barf reaction on the latest class announcement post should be tarred and feathered
💀
My only gripe is I wish they'd been introduced better but here we are, I'm tired of it
lol
Marine bitching never ends, there’s always something to bitch about lol
When I got into the hobby
they'll all be quiet if the class ends up being fun
like i said in theorychat
im gonna fucking laugh like walter in the crawlspace
People complaining about them going from 25 to 32 mm
💀
it's obviously going to be that
Or once their favorite YouTuber posts a video talking about how good it is 😭
100% lmao
Necromunda lookin ass
Fucking npcs istg
when have gamers ever not bought the product they complain about
Also thank god they leaned into the hive scum thing
And they’re not just all gangers
lol
What's the name of the Arbites character ? Zorin ?
it wasnt even that
we had the rage of the trailer day
Yeah
THEN THE LITERAL NEXT DAY
We had 2k-3k upvoted posts being positive
and saying the class should be fun/looks great
like holy shit

fucking sheep
I'd completely forgotten about that, I remember thinking it's a literal nothingburger to be mad about
I'm proud to be a hive scum supporter from day one
review bombing for literally no reason
Its legit funny
hive scum looks fine, i'll probably enjoy it
like what is their reasoning i dont get it genuinely
It was, I mean it was kind of annoying for those people to rebase but it was literally a non issue
They just didnt want a ganger
And the bangwaggon people having already dropped their neg review
gamers are some of the whiniest speciments on the planet is the reason
hey i also wanted a tech priest i'm just normal about it
Only beaten by sports fans
To all crybabies, consider the following:
LMAO
oh also idk if this needs saying but the dual auto pistols are old munda art
and i love that
watch the lexi page suddenly get a new source added when DLC is released
the custom stim mechanic legit sounds cool as hell
fingers crossed they don't fuck it up
im only here for fishbones
half the lexi page for lasguns is now darktide images
Actually reading them it's just literally nothing. One was literally "WTF"?
There should seriously be a character minimum so people don't waste a fucking review
Watchdogs, 40k sounds like a fun idea.
tbf, 40k has historically had issues with an art style for guns that looks like someone opened paint and drew some boxes vaguely in the shape of a rifle
it's more the sources for normie weapons in 40k that are all over the place
you got mark 9, 400, 433999, 219120973
none of them show up anywhere but one place
although special shouts out to primaris weapons looking 21st century tactical, making me want to fall down the stairs
How the fuck do I have a notification for a chat I don't have unread message in 
picatinny rail is a fucking tech heresy get thAT SHIT OFF YOUR GUN RIGHT NOW MARINE
These VAs seem nice, fatshark gets a single thumbs up
why not more tacticool modernslop
FS/Ward are picking great VA, and more so, are doing great voice lines writings
the fucking laser pointer
on a lasgun
bah, post eaten by the fun police
and a holographic sight
awful
just laugh at this user for putting that much effort into 1 single guardsman
beat however is the owner of this mini is with sticks
when he has to do like 30 more
i don't care if you're made of the emperor's own seed if you put a 40mm underbarrel grenade launcher on your bolter you're going in the nutrient reclamation vats
Picanity rails kinda go against the motto of the Imperium tbh
What's funny is that sometimes I see whiny people use that term to refer to the current models because they still can't get over primaris being a thing
the modern quad night vision is the worst part
to be fair
that's literally better than imperial tech
imperial night vision sucks ass
Love me some reivers
a heckling cock?
i do actually like the modern military aesthetic i just don't want to see it on a space marine
I will accept that for this miniature set
that thing also looks goofy as hell
Never seen that unit before
Flashgitz but SM
i think people hate it too much
somebody painted them as nerf guns
it's like someone looked at the stinger pods mounted on some modern air defense vehicles and said "what if we mounted that on a gun"
Those guns look so bad
also a chain belt for no reason
I'm gonna taste my homemade alcohol to compare the difference with the strawberry soju
the worst part is they're not gravis units
are you from finland by any chance
cardinal sin
nah, Belgium/luxembourg
ah fair
why so
the little star wars astromech droid periscope is kinda cute though
fair
needed to know for fennoscandic ribbing purposes
anyway my hunch was wrong so it doesn't matter
you have to admit the devastation squad is great for kitbashing
desolation
whatever the word is
that too yeah
why are you calling an objectively cool weapon stupid
it's got too much stuff on it
the flash?
good
it's stupid though
cool
Could be worse, could be Danish
4 tanks
it's not even made for tanks
So my HM alcohol is stronger, but also more sweet
it's an incendiary rocket launcher
Wouldn't be able to drink like a 1/3 of a liter on my own
I think the actual answer is dumbfire rockets are not spectacularly accurate and you want area saturation
also there's a smaller platform i'm desperately trying to remember the name of
nothing beats a simple 40mm grenade launcher for that role
@storm jungle we got a crybaby in gen chat complaining about Matt Ward lmfao
Whom ?
Yeah idk maybe someone thought making it recoilless would be worth dectupling the munition costs
Dude named police brutality responding to me
im sure it didn't help with the weight at all
also i think it was expendable
like the LAW
Honestly not surprised seeing the name
which itself looks like a kid's toy
Of course, what else name would he have lol
Im pretty sure the box is just tubes and an optic like rpgs were?
Arnold isnt using the optic but its there lol
Friendly reminder once again that 99% of people who still cry about Ward "ruining 40k" werent even fucking born around the time that Ultramarines codex came out
"destroyed the hobby" btw
here you're the chemist idk what any of this means
Does matt ward hate women??? That ones new to me lol
definitely ranting about the sororitas/GK incident
which he went on public record saying was just him poorly trying to make the GK look comically evil
its a very honest mistake to make lol
Oh lol that was just stupid but i can see it esp just knowing it secondhand
It is a very funny moment
Yeah he apologized for it not realizing the effect he had at the time, Ward is still pretty responsible for a lot of great 40k lore stuff so ranting to him about this incident in fucking 2025 at this rate is really tiring
"We, the incorruptable grey knights, need to be double incorruptable which is why we're using this recently acquired nun blood"
That's like a cousin to the thermite reaction sheesh are you sure this wasnt at least meant for light armor?
I miss when people got upset at somewhat understandable lore hiccusp
now its
"NOOO I DONT WANT MY ARMY OF EVIL PSYCHO MARINES TO HATE PSYKERS AND BE EVIL NOOOO"
God, shut up 😩
oh right thermite is literally just aluminium and metal oxyde
Yeah aluminum redox is a violent reaction you can do some wacky shit with
"The stain of suspicion never completely fades." - Leandros SM2
It does if you arent a grognard

it was meant to directly replace the M2 flamethrower so it's meant for bunkers and light vehicles. i doubt the substance burns long enough to melt the rolled steel of tank armour
da fuq is a grognard lol first time I've ever seen that
Organic chemistry regularly uses a substance called lithium aluminum hydride which reacts very explosively with water
french loan word
how long have you been on the internet
IT'S FRENCH?~!
Don't forget to dry your wets!!
is it the lithium that reacts with the water and then creates a reaction with the aluminium
I don't usually hang out in places where people throw insults around
Grognard isnt even that old a term is it? It might be older in the offline tabletop space
sips tea
You are currently in a place where people throw insults around.

1912
literally
usually
Thats the entire internet
grognard is def old in the french language
That 'usually' is carrying enough weight that you'd be better off handing it off to an Ogryn
The aluminum hydride reacts with the water producing hot hydrogen gas and then that plus the lithium ignites the hydrogen gas
les grognards mention??
🪞
so a dwarven longbeard is a grognard
At the age of 12 I was born without a face
If only
would have made you less ugly but here we are
holy shit i gotta pull the ripcord
oh my god
damn that's brutal
God I wosh I had the lack of self respect to become a nurgling just to shit on your lawn
just start watching asmongold and it will be easy
Oldcrons are just boring
Its maybe 3 times more reactive with water by mass than pure lithium but its also maybe the best reducing agent out there if you properly dry your solutions
Cant keeps turning me to khorne
Or khaine whatever tf his name is
This is the kind of person that got me kicked from a 40k TTRPG server because I wouldn't submit to their "Hellgun" vs. "Hell Gun" vs. "Hotshot Lasgun" quibbling
a reasonable reaction
see this is why i can't get into chemistry. too many explosives
i cant i cant i cant be posting there like this i can't talk to this person
Thats great because new lore confirms its literally the same shit too
im so glad they closed that nonsense finally
its the same shit
Anyway I hope ganger gets a single version of the 1911
I thought hellguns had the backpack and hotshots were sniper patterns

do they debate between whether it's pronounced La**zgun and Lase**gun too?
Anyone who thinks Oldcrons were better has not read a single necron material in their entire life and their opinion accumulates to basically a drywall.
My favorite bit is like "I loved it when they were unthinking legions of killer robot terminators."
So literally what they are now? Now their leaders just talk who almost nobody in a war will ever see anyway? lol
erm it's actually helgun not hellgun 
but the hotshot longlas special barrel backpack!
Only to people who think Space Marines were better off as eugenics-made high school bullies because it makes them feel better about themselves
Oh god I just thought of a cursed ganger angle
Ww2 german wehrmacht
Cuz you know
Meth
I found oldcrons so fucking boring I wrote off the entire faction, funnily enough now with them being just a smaller part of the whole thing I do find them mildly interesting
"Oldcrons were better"
"did you read any books about them then?"
"I don't read books"
Hotshots are just lasguns with supercharged packs they can be in normal, sniper, or carbine form
I'm probably going male anarchist with mine. I want full psycho
You can make plenty of meth references without adding actual nazi cosmetics
helguns have the backpacks
This would offend me if I could read
Thats why they entirely got updated, the writers realised they were literally just a 1 gimmick faction with nothing going for them.
Just make them from indiana or something
I know I just thought of a cursed way to do it

Indiana methhead is the more mainstream way
the Lych Guard are sentient enough to be threatened with the punishment of being converted into a Scarab if they fail, so they aren't unthinking killer robots.
More like people with various stages of dementia and lobotomy trapped in robot bodies that can freeze up if they remember they don't have the ability to breathe, but the instintct to do so.
i've seen hot shot long las that have to be reloaded after every shot
The best part of this page (since i also helped write it) was bundling up all these reference points at the start of the naming convention at the top of the page lol
What if indiana is where they make eversor assassins 
Im not talking about the lychguard, im talking about your battle-line warriors and other non-thinking crons which make up 80% of Cron armies.
Rage
Never understood the hotshot
I think hotshots being sniper rifles is an abnettism?
Is it supposed to fire fast or just super slow
This is a reference that i'm not sober enough to understand
Like power sword lightsabers
Fire more repeatedly.
To me helgun is still the fucking backpack and hotshots are just super charged packs because at this point why fucking name anything
So they can decapitate an orc at 2 miles and fire fast
HATE
Fire at a higher power level, like picking a gun at a higher calibre
i love that man's writing so much
Literally all fucking hellguns have a big backpack/magazine equilavent from the power they consume, its the same shit.
what the fuck is a treadfether lmao
Midwest drug crisis joke
Cant use where i live its all heroin and that'd be a terrible eversor
Doesn't make it inherently faster rate of fire, or precision, just more wattage
its like how the tempestus drop troopers got non-backpack hellguns
but their magazines like MASSIVE
Yeah meth makes eversors
lol
Methheads are immune to tazers
misread that as tempestus drop gooners, i'm gonna have to deploy that one at some point
die
The inquisition taught me... many things
Heroin eversor be like "you want me to get out of the drop pod??"
nah that shit's copaganda
random question, are ghost planets a type of daemon world or are they something seperate
Not really
ghost planets?
wtf is a ghost planet
"i have to be able to kill anyone i look at instantly in case they are on evil drugs that make them immune to electricity overriding their nervous system"
from one of the horror stories
Meth had military uses and still does
I dont think they are an official planet designation, would be on the lexi otherwise
yeah but it's not magic. these of days it's just used to keep pilots awake for long enough that they make mistakes and get people killed
If i were making an eversor cocktail i'd start with meth for drive and focus
Yeah
there's thousands of world classifications that get used like once in a single book
a planet made up of dead souls and ruled by cruel beings
Tell that to the finnish dude....
even in world war 2 meth was just used as a wake-up drug
yeah no thats basically a corrupted world/daemon planet at that point lol
that was in world war 2!
Hitler was addicted to meth
I know
and his achievement was just that he stayed awake for a very long time and skiid for days!
he didn't get magic superpowers, he had to be hospitalized!
yeah thats what i thought
Yes, this is like 30% of an eversor
It's from this anthology hold on and the story has no lex page
Eversors are meant to run at 110% until they get put back in stasis or explode so giving them heart palpitating amounts of stimulants makes sense
Yeah basically is the case i think
I mean he beat a wolverine to death (it was a log and he broke his compass over it)
i was about to ask which Short is it
then I just see "Ghost Planet"
amazing titles as ever James Workshop
up there with Deathworld and Deathworlder
Honeybadger doesnt give a fuck
thats a wolverine you fuckwad
it would fuck up a honeybitcher
Yes a skunk bear would fuck up a honey badger
doubt it
i need one to maul you though
Convergent coloration which is weird
if not friend why shaped like friend?
No thanks I dont want to be sprayed
Skunk ass mothafuckers
Eat it.
I dont want to deal with a loke 60 lb skunk
weasels are some of the vicious animals
Honey badgers are more inassailable compared to wolverines having classic mustelid hyperviolent tendencies
Polar bear
Also dolphins doing... things with the corpses of other animals
Or the penguins that made a researcher kill themselves
Weasels stoats and especially mink are murder machines
i just mean in terms of pure aggression
If they were the size of polar bears they'd depopulate whole areas lol
yup
Wolverines arent as murderous because of the way scale and calorie need relate but they're still pretty murderous
Feral cats are also insanely good hunters and unlike mustelids they hunt for sport sometimes
Feral cats are the worst invasive species on earth
Yee
that's literally entirely the fault of humans too
Yup
but hey we're the most invasive species on earth so it's par for the course
Well invasive species are definitionally our fault but yeah
We do beat out the rat narrowly
By antarctica and alberta canada
the rat is another that's entirely our fault
They're all our fault! Its not an invasive if its not lol
some aren't, well if you consider climate change to not be directly our fault
That's a whole other dynamic from invasives when you start to consider habitat shifts i think
the ladybug is a funny one
people back in the day would just do whatever and see if it worked
I haven't heard ladybug news recently
it's an intentionally planted species
in north america
to get rid of crop eating bugs
Coconuts
You can buy them live and have them shipped to you its pretty funny
people get really mad at airport security for confiscating fruits and stuff
That's just introduction since its the coconut doing coconut stuff
I am deathly allergic to coconuts I hope they all die
Coconuts float for an evolutionary reason lol
i have never met somebody allergic to coconuts
invader zim ass fruit
I have texture issues with them personally
Its very rare and very obnoxious because like 95% of hygiene products use coconut oil
i hate the shredded wood pulp texture too
you wear makeup?
No

imo the human race should explode
only after I die tho
i wanna keep gaming first

give my family enough time to die out then it can all die
Should just pull a krieg ut since no hive

guess this is how a death cult starts lmao
hell no, kessler syndrome NOW
LETS GO ABLATION CASCADE
dilara getting excited when the news talks about climate change worsening
Me justifying my addiction to tarkov
It went from -10 last night to +7 now
But its in a lot of soaps lotions balms and shampoos
im gonna kill myself
Yeah its wacky we're like one import control failure from having to switch bananas again lol
first planet humans terraform is gonna be earth or they don't get to leave
continental climate 
everyone is talking about the Jokerao VL again
New voice actors look fun
Yet another person who has a role in Refantazio
And Savant has 2 roles now
saw it on the sub then at zealot chat
so, we've got Eldar banter, and now Jokaero
2 new classes confirmed lol
Male outlaw plays the oathbreaker knight from BG3
Also a custodian class
i can't wait for the 2200's to be like 99% invasive species on earth fighting to be the ultimate life form
I can't find shit for male bounty hunter tho
he has two roles both are live action stuff
Im rooting for an all nematode ecosystem
i hope the horseshoe crab gets a meta again
Outlaw
Anarchist (LAME)
Bounty Hunter
Im curious but at work orientation
you're just a natural agent of chaos (small c) aren't you
One of them appears across like 10 years of doctor who
What's the difference between an outlaw and a bounty hunter
Alvin, simon, and theodore
you don't like crazy wacky personalities?
One is out the law, the other is a hunter for bounties
Fem bounty hunter has even less i think
Anarchist is so base
Hmmmmm
They're probably a stage actor
prolly same difference between a pirate and a privateer
I spit on anarchists
the class?
Outlaw is honor among thieves, bounty hunter is here to get paid
Anarch is the psychopath of the group
bounty hunters are paid by the government to capture criminals, in modern times this is almost exclusively people who flee on bail
also pretty much only found in the US in modern age 
I will be choosing outlaw because Gordon Cooper
im pretty sure the yeven got a new term for that job too no?
bounty hunters also have no power in the modern day
you don't need to listen to them
historically bounty hunters have been a way for the government to trick people into self-financing enforcement stuff they dont want to use their own apparatus for
they act like cops but have no authority
Bail bondsman is the euphamistic term
sheriffs and bounty hunters still being a thing in the US is so funny
I mean
people still larping about the wild west
isnt a sheriff just a cop rank
Kinda?
sheriffs are a consequence of how big the US is
i dont think most people care when its just a fancy title
it's an elected position lol
it's just for out of shape middle aged people but those types can join ICE now with how lax their recruitment is
arent all big ranks an elected position
sheriffs are the law enforcement body for the parts of a county outside cities and towns
not the police
in many countries
Sheriff is an elected official, cops are not elected but appointed
if you're not under a police department you're under the sheriff
same thing
Nah sheriffs can be chill
So can frenzied badgers
Also can be seriously not chill
A cop is a cop.
Still universally not safe
sheriff elections are fucking insane
no the big difference is you're asking small town rural americans to elect a person who can beat up people they dont like legally
they cant think 
A cop that has to get good public opinion
they're often bizarre people but win because they're running unopposed
doubt it
Hey at least the citizens choose who violates their rights!
They also have way more ways to be chill than cops
They also can choose a sheriff who wont do that
but again the US is just fucked by the fact that everything is done state and municipal level
And just prevents the feds from doing shit
but yeah the main reason we have sheriffs is we need local-type policing in areas that arent dense enough to have their own police

most western countries moved to having federal police forces
because it reduces the chance of corruption (still happens a lot)
i.e. not worth the effort
I really dont think a sheriff can do shit against feds bro
Thats like local level ordinance
they hate eachother a lot it's funny
the root problem with US police systems kinda traces back to the fraternal order of police, the cop "union"
sheriff departments can just hamper fed investigations easily
and yeah sheriff vs feds is one of the few always active fronts in the "I LOVE STATES RIGHTS" vs "the federal government should do stuff" war we have here
could be solved with district police appointed by a wider federal police force
I think the root issue with the US police is the fact that the justice system has vague enough language to target minorities
like a lot of countries do
yeah its weird that its an elected position
Eat the justice system and spit out a better one thats my motto
but besides that we just kept the name for a role that does need to exist here
i dont think it does
someone needs to do the law outside of cities and towns large enough to do it themselves
there is so much corruption done by sheriff departments
I dont think I like outlaw as a name for the personality
its like highway patrol
They could have done more
that's state level
this shit doing numbers might be a hivebanger
yeah sheriff duties could be scaled up to the state level and probably work better
Idk i just feel like anarchist and bounty hunter spells a lot more than outlaw
we'd probably still call them the sheriff and deputies though lol
Why not call the personality like Evil Man or something
waiting for people to post the personality previews 
you dont need a specific law enforcement department for every town in a 100 mile area that has a total combined population of like 10k
pick your poison
hoodlum and hooligan
goes hard
no
Oh I get it
start a petition
well yes we could change a lot of things if we completely overhauled the entire structure of every police department in the country
would be nice but not exactly practical
Dilara came up with the outlaw name for the team and wouldn't want us to steal the thunder with the hooligan name
Honestly fair
:)
if it means reducing the insane levels of corruption that happens on the local level i think it's well worth it
Does the sheriff have a big iron on his hip? And is actually an Arizona Ranger?
"Akshually uh federal law guys cannot do that because police forces dont allow the federal goonery districts of the respective structure of departmant laws-"
how you mfers sound like rn
Rangers are cool

Sheriffs are corrupt pussies
Someone sounds like they dont appreciate the secretary of the interior
Inject in some random UN general body resolution too
n
it's a ranger
o
marshals are a cool name for a role i dont fully understand
I'm not sure what this is implying
also marshal comes from french
Dilara gonna kill and loot your corpse lol
The only thing I own on my body is my chronic depression
You can take it
they're like a weird branch of the feds that work on interstate transport and some other weird stuff
i think they handle mail crime
i thought they were like the fed equivalent of bounty hunters
they do that too, and run witness protection
honestly i think they got all the leftover duties lol
I made a fake coin and now a billion dudes with suits and gucci ars are breaking down my door
isn't it funny that the US doesn't have military marshals but has law enforcement marshals
they also do prisoner transport and security for federal courts?
Parades have marshals
damn
the secret service?
The SS
prob the weirdest US fed branch
There are federal agency reaction forces
good relative only to whoever is running who is worse
so like they come execute you if you steal mail or smth
i kinda low key like the mail swat
mostly because i've never heard of them doing anything bad
damn don't fuck with the US postal service
Yup
Typically they enforce the usps' monopoly on mail
of course that's not working so great
Not for mail
Packages and parcels yes
What are some notable interactions between the Aeldari and Genestealers
There was that one craftworld that embraced the genestealer curse because they thought they would get away from Slaanesh in that awfully written Ynnari book
they then get purged by Yvraine and Co
so not much else beyond that lol
Eldar and GSC are on like such different spectrums that most encounters they'll get is randomly stumbling across each other in some clusterfuck warzone
The entire ynnari series is ass

damn that show so old even the gif has dust
No wonder they don't do anything with them anymore
The books sold so bad that they literally just left their plot points on a cliffhanger/stalemate

are they canon
🤌
unfortunately lol
i don't personally care about canonicity but i think it's very funny when something awful makes it in
A rubric marine farted on it
I hope GW will sometime reboot Ynnari but make it good, i promise GW people would actually like them if the writing wasn't dogshit
unrelated, i like this gif because that cat be slow blinking at the person behind the camera
unlikely, as they've been downgraded to a fringe faction
they are making a funny gif and the cat is just like oh it's my parent doing something silly 💖
I think Aiden would fit in cyberpunk as a netrunner as well
i don't think aiden has enough personality to be a character in anything
SHUT UP
😡
I have to respect the guy. Even though he is depressed after the break up, he doesn't use his power for anger.
I really hope the gunslinger personality is pulled off well
the fact that they were literally in the throne room in 4 seats cheering Horus on fucking gets me
A smooth talking jovial fellow with a hint of untrustworthiness sounds like a lot of fun
Abnett legit makes the most goofy scenes imaginable
all canon baybee
his scrungly little blorbo popped a tallyman with a single bolt pistol shot
Literally just:
YEP
The End and the Deaf books are so fucking goofy man
you can go from the most epic scenes to Loken meeting a hallucination of Horus and the Mournival as centaurs

So dumb question, was the dreadknight a ward creation?
We literally got no idea.
Ward was the sole writer of the codex but a writer usually isnt the guy that comes up with the minis.
They are tasked with making the lore and some of the tabletop stats usually, changes from book to book and writer to writer
Still makes him my favorite 40k writer


The dreadknight is the best sm unit ever
no
Funniest shit Ive ever seen
Ward is strictly a writer right ? Minis come from Concept arts (Think John Blanche) then to Miniature then to lore introduction
Now all I need is one for the fists
To put the bob the builder terminator in it
I burned a finger
What is the best sm unit then?
idfk theres thousands, pick one other than the Shitknight
The shitknight is the most ridiculous sm unit
So no
You said best then went to shit
Dreadnought are cooler than Dreadknight
pick a lane
Also this yeah
Sorry I consider the best to be the funniest
And I cannot think of a .ore ridiculous unit
Then desolation squads
Post pics I may change my mind
Honestly not as ridiculpus
Hnourbale mentaion
The second one is pretty close
Mario kart looking a
Have you considered that the turret has a charge stat
What?
???????
I believe I may now have a twin moat ridiculous (and therefore best) sm unit
The short bus is a close swcond
The second picture
gokart
Hot wheels
i wish we had those revolvers....
I wish for Dual Revolver as a new weapon mark for the Revolver 
That'd be nice
stub bolt revolver.
Fanning the hammer is still my go to, even if I miss every shot
Fanning the hammer should have each subsequent shot increase finesse
Agrippina revolver has great dps.
Crucian Roulette let's that happen kinda, at least
True
That + sustained salvo, you get bonus damage to the next 4 shots if you spam.
it'd be cool but it would have to save at least a shot on the enemies that can survive more than one revolver headshot
now imagine reloading dual single loading revolvers
if you are fanning the hammer without it being aimed into elites intentionally i am taking all your ammo
you cant be trusted with it and dont deserve it
afaik the point of having multiple revolvers was to give yourself more total ammo in the first place
not that it's tactical or anything
COD really screwed the dual gun reload speed for a generation of gamers.
more chambers = more chambers that need reloading
you're not getting through a horde with only 10 shots
yeah it grew out of the tradition of carrying braces of single shot pistols
throw away the extra revolver and only reload the one
Moon clips
you start a fight with 12 shots and the rest is just 6
swapping the cylinder out on a revolver has never not been fiddly i dont think
Again, moon clip...
we don't get those except for the fan-volver
Have it be weaker shots but with Speedloaders like the Agripna
what the fuck is a moon clip
speedloader type thing
A moon clip is a ring-shaped or star-shaped piece of metal designed to hold multiple cartridges together as a unit, for simultaneous insertion and extraction from a revolver cylinder. Moon clips may either hold an entire cylinder's worth of cartridges together (full moon clip), half a cylinder (half moon clip), or just two neighboring cartridges...
oh yeah speedloaders work thats why people use them
it's like how tube fed lever action guns are slow to reload but that doesn't matter since you start a fight with way more ammo
Moonring are cheaper than speedloader, but more meant as discardable
it took a lot of bullet design and factory tooling to make speedloaders that worked though they're younger than revolvers by a good bit
they wouldnt be possible without tight machining tolerances
i think among other things centerfire had to be invented first
The Agrippina is speed clip, which is slightly different. Moon clip stays inside of the revolver.
something that didnt exist in the wild west era
I'm getting mixed up. Isn't the Zarona the one with the speedloader?
metal cartridges had to come first
Zarona is the high damage one.
smokeless powder had to come first
Zarona is the original one
i thought they were shooting metal rimfire by the wild west
ah okay
nope the SAA used black powder originally
Real 
metal cartridges started appearing more around the end of the 19th century
well then yeah you certainly cant use speedloaders or moon clips with paper cartridges or loose powder and balls lol
carrying two revolvers makes a lot of sense when you have to do tamping during the reload lol
yep
Just replace the entire cylinder
that actually happened sometimes i think
You can't really do that with percussion revolver.
its always been majorly fiddly
for some models of revolvers
and the cylinder machining is a not insignificant portion of the cost of the gun anyway
Come on FS, giv us Brace of Revolver 
Otherwise, you mess up the alignment of the cylinder.
a brace of single shot guns would be really funny, make them like weird laslock pistols or something and steal the code from salzpyre
Webley open top revolver would be nice.
in general if you cared enough about the extra 6 bullets to have a second cylinder you cared about having them fast enough to buy a whole second gun
yeah cavalry would commonly carry 2 big ass revolvers
Old revolver doesn't even swing to the side when you reload.
loading gate revolvers 
You have to open the holder at the back of the cylinder then insert cartridge one by one.
wasnt there a webley that had a built in tamping lever lol
you handloaded the bottom cylinder from the front then pulled a lever to tamp it iniirc lol
Webley and open top are developed after the metal casing.
Black powder brass case is a thing well into the 1900s.
yeah i had the wrong name and apparently the tamping lever was more common than i thought
alright reading up on it i think changing cylinders is a movie thing
shoutouts to the lemat for loading small bullets and a BIG bullet in case you needed to shoot something harder
people would just carry more guns
Fun fact, the .45acp made for the M1911 was loaded to match the black powder .45 Colt used on the Colt SAA.
it was not practical to do in combat and was slower to do right than just reloading usually afaik
plus it cost half a gun
The smokeless .45colt is as strong as .44 magnum, which will 100% destroy the original Colt SAA.
i think the myth comes from a clint eastwood movie too lol
Destiny hand cannons are so fucking funny
So many of them have cylinders you just throw away
To reload
Not really. Guns back then have tight tolerances, but must be hand fitted, which is where the expensive part comes from. Also, by removing the cylinder on certain models, you might drop some pins or washer, and the gun would be non-functional.
oh i wasnt thinking of a black powder revolver at all its the old colt cap and balls that had loading levers built onto them
like the 1851-1860
Ogryn's brace of Laslock muskets (or Birghiman Muskets)
ogryn brace of kickbacks...
Those ones are still black powder... And they are even worse candidates to remove the cylinder...
The loading level also aligns the chamber to the barrel. Shit is quite clever and complex.
oh yeah i guess cap and ball you have to put the cap and ball in separate places
funny looking action
Wasn't expecting such a gun tism convo today
i used to watch forgotten weapons before i learned he hangs out almost exclusively with nazis 
I feel like all guntists should be shoved in a cargo box headed to madagascar
but thats just my opinion tho
No u

I'm a gun nut ;-;
Kind of hard to avoid those people if you are that enthusiastic. Those are the people who more likely advocate gun rights and keeping guns.
Compromise has to be made.
Is it ever specified why dante didn't have an issue with the knights of blood joining his forces on baal when they were just as if not more shitty than the angels vermillion who dante almost had executed on the spot when they offered their aid?
you dont have to hang out with open nazis and if you do while being publicly apolitical im going to assume you're one too
Might have not known
what
ididn't know about that
yeah i dont remember the exact list its been a few years but it wasnt anything debatable really
devastating cuz that guy loved the famas
His old partner, Inrangetv got labelled as left wing for having less conservative opinion and featuring women and transgenders on his channel. He got into some heated convo on some forums. Forgotten Weapons sided with the other side.
having read the book but basically even though they were Renegades and there was outrage around the chamber they STILL came to defend their father legion and homeworld, because loyalty is what it means at the end of the day sometimes and the fact that they came all the way to Baal to stand before Dante and not even demand but offer their aid even at the rage of the other Chapters in the room made him settle the right decision.
The Vermillion are a different deal because they literally actively threaten/hold blackmail information and outright told the BA that their secret will stay a secret or they'll take everyone down with them, Knights of Blood didnt resort to such an asshole move and were simply just renegades.
Ah ok. Which book is it where they blackmail the BA?
I still watch Forgotten Weapons because it is educational and most of the time apolitical. Behind the scenes things are behind the scenes things.
What if Game Theory picked up Warhammer
person I know having a baby already time sure flies
i just hate how guns have been co opted by the fascists
as if owning a 1911 is a sufficient replacement for human rights
just did interview for the boston scientific offer
they expect overtime without overtime pay
fuck that
literally every company based in the US i've applied to is like this
Damn, I get time and a half overtime pay, thought that was the standard rate
At last the full Datasheet is complete.
it is but they want to hire me as contractor which is a red flag usually
that means no real employee benefits
Yeah you’re going to get thrown away the moment they find someone cheaper lol
@storm jungle only you will get this joke: The Servo Drone has a designation of Iota-54-Gamma. In shortened easier to call terms…
“ISAC”.
not necessarily in this context, but they'd definitely get rid of me after their current project is done
Heh, it’s just there to replace the Servitor that comes with Ostromandeus…but there is (hidden in the blob of resin) an exhaust that looks like an actual flame based cutting tool.
but whatever i know my worth so i'll play ball for now
just having a few years of experience really shifts the table of job interviews lol
Extremely based, saves a lot on any uhhh dead spaces too

you dont feel like worthless trash anymore
boooooo
and you're actually putting pressure on the interviewer instead
Just use nepotism bro
Wait it's not nepotism, it's Networking
I totally didn't get my job because one of the department heads is one of my best friends
shut up monkey
holy shit new podel video
Superman is a Scottish local from Kyle of Localsh. He tries to order a box of Kellogg's Crunchy Nut and Kingsmill 50/50 from some run-down Tesco in Glasgow.

So odd question, but how long until another inquisitor shows up in Darktide, if they haven't already.
Probably never, but really how are we supposed to know?
inquisitors both love and don't love stepping on each others toes
considering the moebian domain is the segmentum solar I wouldn't be surprised if another inquisitor takes notice but who knows
The point is the only answer is "when writers decide"
This is one of those things that's entirely up in the air
I'm just wondering if rather than Rannick recruiting hivescum, it's another inquisitor warband instead.
What gave you that idea
poaching another warband is like an asshole move that other inquisitors dont take too kindly to
plus we know the hive scum are from the water cartel
I think he means another Inquisitor shows up and adds their Warband to the game
Not all of them
Probably to explain the addition of more diverse classes other than rejects
"the Warband needs help. Rannick instructed Explicator Zola to use her connections to the Water Cartel, establishing contact with a conclave of Cartel leaders and leveraging the Inquisition’s influence and their mutual enemy to mobilize their forces." It's pretty explicit that the hive scum we'll play are from the Cartel
Yeah but Hank directly said water cartel is a background choice
So idk
Maybe he meant something else
idk then
we'll see on Dec 2nd I guess
wouldn't be the first time a blog post just gave us the wrong stuff
Well it also says she uses her connection to talk a conclave of cartel leaders
Could that not mean while shes connected to the water cartel, she used her influence to talk to all of them?
Or at least multiple cartel leaders
probably? but it makes it clear these aren't just gangers™
Thats true
which is good
one of my main problems with the thematic of it all that it seemed like they weren't connected with the main underworld force but it seems it's no longer an issue
Wdym
at first I was worried it was just generic ganger
since it seems they just lifted the base goons from necromunda
I was worried their lore would be "times are desperate start pulling goons off the streets" instead it's "we're getting desperate contact the organization that's been present in the game since launch to help us together"
to me much more interesting
Well it's 1 step removed at most. "Times are desperate so let's contact this organization to start pulling goons of the streets"
