they're just biologically geared towards obsessions and extremism

#

everything has the potential to be a gateway drug

drowsy cliff
#

It looks out of place because baseball caps are affiliated with civilians and tactical operators

#

On guardsman it looks silly and out of place

arctic talon
#

tbh the Eldar can still drink a lot

drowsy cliff
#

Just my fifty cents

#

they just need to be controlled

Curious... but how many Warhammer books are there?

I mean I know you'd need to become a full time student bordering on academy levels to read them all

and really shouldn't

counting how many wargame rulebooks

If you take all books into account, then any description about any item is invalid because there are so many conflict.

There's about 530 books including short stories ext

Warhammer 40k Lore is HUGE and it can be difficult to know where to start. With content creator, with rulebooks, or by diving into the novels? Well, have no fear - in this little video I give a brief guide to the main themes of 40k, and then go through where to find it, from Wikis to YouTubers!

WHAT

arctic talon
dapper gyro
#

Just start with the subject you like the most first.

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

this is including all supplemental stuff

#

and narrative stuff

storm jungle
#

getting into 40k through HH is a really bad idea

dapper gyro
#

I like guns, so I started with the core codex.

near wasp
#

I like necrons so I started with infinite and divine

dapper gyro
#

My buddy likes wars, so he started with Cadia Stands.

near wasp
#

Shame

lament shoal
#

They had a copy of the funny necron book at LVO but I couldn't get it otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get the other stuff I was buying

drowsy cliff
#

I think I started getting into Warhammer when a random video on guvera (or however you pronounce it) join the Tau

#

And then I started seeing more lore videos and more then saw animations, games and all sorts

#

Except the miniatures

#

Because I'm not selling my livers

arctic talon
#

its not that bad

#

it is

storm jungle
#

As a 13 year long fan who never once bought a miniature in her life yeah dont worry

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

lol

storm jungle
#

you very much can be a trooper of this IP without buying a single mini lol

arctic talon
#

buy the plastic if you're interested in it

#

otherwise

near wasp
#

I buy the plastic crack

drowsy cliff

I think memes also helped

dapper gyro
#

Do you have Darktide?

drowsy cliff
#

Funny since during college I thought it was dumb nerd shit

storm jungle

I mean it is

#

but dumb nerd shit is fun

drowsy cliff
#

True

storm jungle

Also this fandom will seem great

vagrant fox

Alas it is yea

storm jungle

until you come across your first imperium nazi fanatics

anyways Warframe's next update is about a childs PTSD

I'm sad the new quest didn't go with the original plan

of the Tenno using Uriel for the whole quest

#

lol

surreal nest
arctic talon
#

Because the Tenno are demons

#

and Uriel is demon/devil themed lol

dapper gyro
#

I dislike the timeline thing they did to the story.

arctic talon
#

1999?

dapper gyro
#

Now we have 3 different quest lines on top of each other with all loose ends.

arctic talon

nothing that happens in 1999 matters

tbf

lament shoal
drowsy cliff
#

Wtf is up with the story last I played I got up to the point where space mommy leaves you and you have a doppleganger stalking you in your ship

arctic talon
#

not in the grand scheme of things

dapper gyro
#

Still an extra timeline.

arctic talon
#

same with the Old Peace stuff coming up

#

its the same quest line

surreal nest
arctic talon
#

Jade Shadows is a 1 off mini quest

#

its not meant to lead into anything

surreal nest
#

WARHAMMER AND DINNER FOR ME TONIGHT Yipiee

dapper gyro
#

Frame quests are their own things, I don't mind that.

arctic talon
#

we kill ballas after a war

#

also the creepy doppleganger is why the tenno have their powers

#

and is a horrifying eldritch entity that likes human suffering

Just about everything 40k related

How is their AoS selection?

I need to get back to that game someday

I find a lot of stores lack hard there

drowsy cliff
#

Least now I can stick my PS4 account on PC now

arctic talon
#

we already know how 1999 will end anyways

lament shoal
arctic talon
#

Earth will nuke itself into oblivion

#

1999 is a closed timeloop(for now) but its not relevant even if time goes on

#

its the same timeline as warframes

#

anyways

#

its just at least 3000 years in the past(probably way more)

drowsy cliff
#

Wtf was 1999? I mean honestly I wish the whole game looked like that

#

Instead of the weird fleshy armour and weapons

#

Honestly I liked the alpha trailer designs which were like that old 360 game

arctic talon
dapper gyro
#

1999 design is a homage to Dark Sector.

arctic talon
#

it failed

drowsy cliff
#

Wtf was it called again?

arctic talon
#

aside from the experiments

#

those worked

#

mostly

drowsy cliff
#

Aye Dark Sector that was it

arctic talon
#

but 1999 is a closed timeloop

#

for now

drowsy cliff
#

Ah

surreal nest
#

I think its genuinely insane that a darktide lore chat member could be my fucking neighbor

arctic talon
#

LOL

surreal nest
#

I didnt think you people were real

arctic talon
#

but even if the 1999 timeloop opens up

#

we already know what'll happen

vagrant fox
#

It's not the first time this has happened

arctic talon
#

Since it leads to the Orokin Empire anyways

All paths lead to the Orokin

Honestly the coolest part of that game was getting my operator unlocked

Dude named Alegroth did a kitbash of an entire Legion of the Damned army

If you ain't talking about my husband grendyl then I dont wanna hear shit

I main Garuda and Revenant, 2 underrated scaling frames.

#

Revenant is not underrated now

💀

dapper gyro
#

Oh?

arctic talon
#

I'm sorry to say your favorite has become metaslop/hj

#

but yeah Revenant is really popular now

dapper gyro
#

Last time I played like 2 years ago, and my dude was a niche OP.

arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

He’s no longer niche because Warframe players gained an extra brain cell and read his abilities

#

I’m sorry to say this

#

Also there’s an augment that lets him give out Mesmer skin now

#

lol

dapper gyro
#

Yes, you can build enough strength to insta kill anything with his 3 (or 2).

arctic talon
#

It’s 3 yeah

vagrant fox
dapper gyro
#

Atlas is fun

#

I like niche frames.

drowsy cliff
#

Is there a lore reason as to why ogryn in Darktide are dwarfs? Even max height isn't even close to their canon size

vagrant fox
#

Harrow, Atlas, and Excal were my top 3 iirc. Good times

dapper gyro
#

Garuda 1 spirit bomb charge is so dumb that it is fun.

arctic talon
#

You can mod his hands

dapper gyro
#

Vauban is another fun one.

arctic talon
#

You can mod all pseudo exalts weapons

Valkyr is... great asset?

She got a mini rework

arctic talon
#

Old peace is about a time period where there was a ceasefire during the old war

#

Which is interesting

#

lol

arctic talon
#

Just gameplay ones tbh

#

They could also be smaller ogryns

#

Not all ogryn are that huge

drowsy cliff
lament shoal
#

Gotcha mb

drowsy cliff
#

I just remember seeing something they stand much taller then what's in game

arctic talon
#

It depends

dapper gyro
#

Max heigh in game gives them about 2.5m which is taller than average marines in armour.

arctic talon
#

They’re about right

lament shoal
#

Massive ogryns are the exception and not the rule

#

It can vary

arctic talon
#

The ogryns are about right

#

Tbh

vagrant fox
#

Ogryns are supposed to be what 2½-3 meters or something, I haven't measured the ones in game I've no idea if it's accurate

lament shoal
#

Yeah

vagrant fox
#

Doesn't look wrong to me

dapper gyro
#

Assuming the middle of the height scale is 1m70 for normal human.

jade holly
#

Legion of the Damned is canon right?

dapper gyro
#

Yes

jade holly
#

Just extremely rare to see in canon?

arctic talon
#

Yeah

arctic talon
#

lol

dapper gyro
#

But they are discontinued from the 9e.

arctic talon
#

They’re basically like cryptid deus ex machinas

ironically one of the reasons why I like it

a lot better than "IM GONNA FLAY YOU" for the 103994045th time in every 40k book

compared to uh

also "OH NO WE CANT SAY 'FUCK' IN A WARHAMMER BOOK!"

There is something to be said about how many times can you read about some schmucks flayed hide before it loses all impact

#

Im not saying it needs to be Berserk levels but it definitely makes the world feel more grim among other stuff. Also WHF has the characters do like lots of cut-to-black sex which is hilarious.

#

I was reading a bounty hunter novel and as the protagonist is banging some chick in a ship cabin the book says wild shit like how her excited screams mixed with the seagulls squawking

No

#

well

sorta

surreal nest

The darkoath are small

you can aproximate square to round bases

the new marauders

fit on darkoath bases

iirc

Oh no way???

#

Yeah those new marauders are INSANE

arctic talon

yeah

surreal nest
arctic talon

they're 25mm bases I think

lemme double check

I love you Goofy

arctic talon

nvm

they're on 30's

#

Uhhh

#

you can fit them

darkoaths are on 28.5's

#

you'll have some overhang but its fine

surreal nest
#

Ok sick

#

Im amazed at those marauder models fr

#

Darkoath models kinda suck

arctic talon
#

ngl

#

they're so different

#

from the original chaos marauders

#

I struggle to call them the same lol

lament shoal
#

Square bases allowing them to be grouped up like they're in battle formation is actually so cool

surreal nest
#

They arent very warhammery tbh

arctic talon
#

Darkoaths are very warhammery

#

imo

#

Marauders have always been semi generic fantasyslop

surreal nest
#

Lol

arctic talon
#

the new marauders are uh

#

fucking insane though

surreal nest
#

The darkoath faces suck tho

#

Do they sell just marauders?

#

Ive only seen a big box

arctic talon
surreal nest
#

Idk if they are even out yet actually lol

#

Sick

arctic talon
#

idk

#

I like the darkoath faces

#

lol

#

it fits them

surreal nest
#

Not wrong

arctic talon
#

like lowkey

#

the new chaos marauders are too advanced

#

for what they are in WHFB

surreal nest
#

I also agree

#

Idk what it is i just dont like them

arctic talon
#

which is fine

#

tbh

surreal nest
#

I think the main reason why I dont like them is because I dont really see a point of them being the same thing as slaves to darkness

#

Like why would you want these marauders when you can have chaos warriors

arctic talon
#

they're to fit the army

#

they're less points

#

Chaos warriors have always had "thralls"

#

for lack of a better word

#

Darkoath can serve as those mortal thralls

#

and also be their own army

surreal nest
#

I accept this answer reluctantly

arctic talon
#

I mean its just how it is

#

💀

#

some people like mixed chaos warriors/S2D's

#

some people like it pure

#

AoS made running pure Chaos Warriors way easier

#

compared to WHFB

surreal nest
#

Chaos warriors are just too cool

#

I love the darkoath fellriders though

#

Those models are amazing

arctic talon
#

but back in WHFB

#

it was a PAIN

#

in the ass

#

in The Old World its less of a pain since there's a specific army option

surreal nest
#

You said marauders are pretty much just cannon fodder right?

arctic talon
#

I mean

vagrant fox
#

The chaos warriors from mark of chaos live rent free in my head to this day

arctic talon
#

sorta?

surreal nest
#

With that kind of lens I like them a bit more

arctic talon
#

They're cannon fodder for the chaos warriors

#

lore wise

#

They can be their own army

#

but the Chaos warriors use them as cannon fodder

surreal nest
#

Makes sense

arctic talon
#

to bulk up their forces

surreal nest
#

in The Old World you must run marauders due to how army building works

The darkoath army set was very unpopular I think

it sold pretty well

unless you mean the recent one

in which that case idk how that works

I meant ebay but yeah

Apologies

that shit sold out at mine

lol

weird

#

ah well

#

Amazon doesn't lie though

they still have stock

which means it didn't sell super well

For 150 thats a steal lol

Thats like 2x the size of their spearhead

A bunch of content creators were given exclusive stuff to present

Also valrak is there but I didn't touch his video

#

I don't know why they don't just release a blog or something instead of this

probably cheaper to outsource that stuff to content creators than take time out of a Dev's day to write a blog

Dev man hours can be expensive, especially if they don't have enough

Chaos Lord Eliphas the Inheritor quotes from Warhammer 40.000: Dawn of War Dark Crusade

"Forces of Chaos... bow to me!"
"Cross me...and die."
"Do not trifle with me, worm!"

It's a calm and silky smooth voice

#

Like wine

#

But with a tint of malice

#

Unlike most of Chaos, where they're frothing psychos

#

Or with insane mania

#

It is a calm, direct voice. The voice of a man with faith and devotion.

#

Although I appreciate the classic Khornate sounding yells and shrieks.

#

I do like it when it's a quiet understated chaos

#

Also fun fact, Eliphias's VA in DoW 2 (Steve Blum) is the same VA that voices Starscream in transformers Prime

#

And Araghast's VA voices Megatron in the Fall of Cybertron games

#

But seriously though, Paul Dobson is great as Eliphias and I wish he would reprise his role

Is ‘Traxis’ phonetic alphabet or does it just mean target?

storm jungle
#

its like when in movies they shout TANGO-1 MOVING OSCAR MIKE in here its KAPPA-1 RECLUSIUS ON THE MOVE! kind of shit

shadow plover
#

well the question was exactly that, almost all those words you listed are part of the phonetic nato alphabet and they're wondering if Traxis is similar to that

storm jungle
#

I mean its not lol

#

i literally just said it lmao

#

Nato alphabet/military callout stuff IRL in comparison is not madeup

Goggling stuff is a lost science

#

Wikipedia doesn't have a list of phonetic alphabets and all

shadow plover
#

you misunderstand me, I am aware what it is but it being military slang or made up 40k phonetic alphabet are two different things

languid meadow
#

It's probably made up 40k phonetic

#

Slang would be what the scum and lc call things

#

But yeah considering prof uses these call outs all the time they're legitimate phonetic code words

wary fulcrum

Do we know if there’s any more?

Would be cool to track them

I've been playing prof since the closed beta and I still can't remember any of them outside of traxis

if i'm going by fighting specialty for each

Tread ligtlies focus on range with their superior access to firepower reflected by their penance some of their higher tier cosmetics requiring you to stack vultures mark

Iron Riders specialized in melee and close range with the fact that they need to be quite quick in trains and turning them into bases and also the fact that the mission for the gear is stacking adrenaline frenzy which is melee

and the show goes on full chemical warfare access to top tier chemists and drugs and is reflected by chemical dependency being the thing you need to complete

One of my friends just texted my asking about 40k and then he mentioned the space sharks so I recommended the Robbie books to him

Download the new Detachment as part of the Astra Militarum Faction Pack, and join us again over the next five days as we see who else will be getting some fresh new ways to play.

#

Gonna be 40K for the next 5 days

wintry scarab
#

Is darktide the only peice of 40k media to depict its ogryn in the way that it does? From what ive heard about ogryns (mainly from youtube slop so idk if its even true) is that they are stupid beyond any believability. imo at least. The way darktide depicts them is perfect. Very much capable of some complex tasks but still very stupid and juvenile in others.

plush mason
#

It depends AFAIK

near wasp
#

The ones in darktide have a brain implant

#

So they are smarter than your average bear

wintry scarab
#

Not all of them strictly say they have the implants iirc.

plush mason
#

IIRC they don't have the boneead implant

wintry scarab
#

One 100% does

#

I think its the bodyguard iirc (its nto the bodyguard, but the brawler.)

near wasp
#

If one does I'd assume they all do

plush mason
#

No it's brawler IIRC

near wasp
#

Given they are all generally as smart as one another

wintry scarab
#

Well at least the heavy doesnt id assume, since hes a ganger.

jade holly

The brawler is the only one that directly says he has the implant and that it might be malfunctioning lmao

It's more like most ogryn aren't fit for it

#

Only ogryn with above average intelligence and communication skills are selected for augmentation into boneeads

storm jungle
#

Its why a lot of people here have their illusions shattered when they see any ogryn beyond Brawler who is the archetype dumbass ogryn personality, like how Bully/Heavy are essentially assholes while Bodyguard in comparison knows a lot of proper english words etc.

jade holly

Clearly the Ogryns are evolving into Krorks

The new gaurd detachemnts feels super vanilla lmao

Itd be funny if later on, from all the brain cooking, Brawler becomes stupidly smart and eloquent

rocky gale
arctic talon
rose thorn
#

lmao

rocky gale
#

It's just very solid

#

Extra orders, more orders, good enhancements

#

Like the Enhancement that lets Commissars lead Ogryn, dunno if that's even benefitial but I like it

rose thorn
#

feel like this detachment is related to the fact armies in 40k only have 1 rule, this feels really realy really basic

#

like first idea basic

#

"what if, army did their one thing even better"

#

on the opposite end, host of the ascension that gives revievd units a shootign buff is bad probably for the smae reason the new gurad one is good

rocky gale
#

But Commissar and their 6 Bullgryn Bodyguards

rose thorn
#

actually mayeb tahs good i have no clue waht commisar does

rocky gale
#

Commissar "Go hit that guy"

Bullgryns "On it boss"

rose thorn
#

does commissar provide a wounding or hit buff or somethign lmao

rocky gale
#

It normally wouldn't work or be useful but it can be within this detachment because of these interactions

#

It allows the Commissar to give orders to them as well as join them and you can't usually give orders to Ogryn

rose thorn
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

rocky gale
#

and the Detachment rule means units that receive orders can reroll 1s

rose thorn
#

tye secret ogryn detachment

#

im annoyed you cant givehte buff ot ratlings too

#

since they are abhumans too

rocky gale
#

No respecting Commissar would have Ratling bodyguards

What are the strongest and weakest traitor legions?

Which one do you like?

rocky gale
#

Iron Warriors

vital ginkgo
#

Ew

storm jungle
#

ACTUALLY WAIT

#

Night Lords definitely

#

they are menacing but they are literally just shattered into thousands of loose warbands

arctic talon
#

Night lords are def the weakest post heresy

#

lol

storm jungle
#

and are basically terrorist-horror losers

arctic talon
#

They’re cowards mostly

storm jungle
#

Yeah that.

arctic talon
#

Sorry uh

#

“Pragmatists”

#

Real pragmatic to be running from uhhh

storm jungle
#

They seem cool and menacing until you realise literally all their victims are defenseless people, the moment they meet any proper resistance they get fucked lol

arctic talon
#

aspect warriors and uh other marines

#

Tbh there’s some warbands who are semi competent and not as cowardly

#

But they’re still cowards

#

One of their rules in heresy shows their mindset the best

#

If an officer would get shot

storm jungle
#

Yeah aside from NL a lot of other traitor legions are pretty formidable even in small warbands

arctic talon
#

You can grab a subordinate and make them eat the bullet for you

#

lol

meanwhile NL warbands like

#

dont go literally beyond 5-10 marines

Look

Talos gang

#

?

dapper gyro
#

The main NL "legion" body themselves...

vital ginkgo
#

I haven't finished the night lords series

arctic talon
#

||decimus|| and the painted counts warbands

#

Painted count isn’t relevant in the NL books

#

He’s a codex character

#

Mostly

#

Though the count is cheating arguably

#

He uses a lot of daemons

#

Being a daemon prince himself lol

#

He’s not even a coward now

#

Smh

rocky gale
#

This Painted Count fellow sounds funny

#

Before becoming a Space Marine he was a nobleman who hunted poor people for sport, but then that got boring so he started hunting other nobles for sport.

arctic talon
#

But yeah he and decimus have the largest collection of night lords

#

And they’re in the hundreds

#

Not even chapter strength lol

dapper gyro
#

The stub pistol are pretty much the HK MK23...

arctic talon
#

Bro loves his hobby

#

It’s a lot less fair now though considering he’s a giant flying monster

That just means he'll have to start hunting custodes because they are nobles

arctic talon

dapper gyro

Terra nobles are a little bit out of reach for those NL bitches.

Custodes are walking around

Just gotta find one for the trophy case

dapper gyro
#

With a hundred SM, it is possible to gang on an eye of the E.

arctic talon
#

Well he’s a giant daemon prince now

near wasp
#

I mean you could probably catch a stodes with 15 if it was a good ambush

#

Plus daemon prince

arctic talon
#

His physicality isn’t the issue for killing a custodes now

#

His warband may be a bunch of cowards but he isn’t lol

#

Him forcing them to attack Metallica in warzone charadon

#

Is still funny as shit

#

They don’t want to, he wants to because he wants to have fun

dapper gyro
#

Damn power scaling

arctic talon
#

He convinces them by saying they can steal a ton of stuff

#

lol

#

That’s all it took

dapper gyro
#

Make sense though, there needs to be an epic character for every former legions.

arctic talon
#

Then typhus rolled up on the planet and freaked out the NL and totally ruined the vibe

#

lol

#

Which meant he couldn’t get his prize he was after

#

Which was the fabricator general of Metallica lol

near wasp
#

Typhus stinks id run away too

arctic talon
#

Tbh they did bail out before it all went to shit

#

Lol

#

The warband being cowards worked out for them missing the Grey Knights, Deimos and the inqusition rolling up

#

So they got all the benefits of raiding the forgeworld without needing to run away

#

Some of the Grotmas detach names got leaked maybe

#

These all sound real
