Training facility, armoury, staging area, housing, clinic, eatery, administration, recreation. Something like that

tough haven
#

I've got so far, barracks, mess hall, brig, garage/repair bay, chapel, maintainance/generator room, and one room thats destroyed and is just rubble. Then, on the second floor I have a comms room, an infirmary, a armory, officers quarters and mess hall, and an elevator room

#

I have two more rooms I need to fill

#

oh I also have a strategium and the commander's office/quarters

tough haven
vagrant fox
#

Maybe a storage room for not weapons

tough haven
#

Its right next to the garage for obvious reasons

vagrant fox
#

Maybe a commissary and entertainment area is too nice for the guard

tough haven
#

Uhh theres a chapel

#

what other diversion do you need?

vagrant fox
#

everyone should have a poker room

#

But that could be done in the mess hall

tough haven
#

One small problem

#

I am running out of corpse sprites to put all around the place

#

lets hope the players dont notice lol

vagrant fox
#

Could just be some old cogitators and power banks left over who knows. Players don't notice some very obvious things

Decided on this, a little waiting area if you have a meeting, some parcels and packages meant to be sent up to him, scrolls and reports for transit to or from, and a spot for a receptionist/guard to wait

does the administratum do audits of like rogue traders?

winged jacinth
#

Not of rogue traders no

#

I think at a certain point they might audit specific worlds for tithing but idk when that happens to a trader holding

copper patrol
#

not 100%, but in the rogue trader game, the arbites are investigating a world controlled by a rogue trader

#

so I assume it's fairly as normal for each world in specific

#

but I doubt if they do any audits of the rogue traders themselves

plush mason
#

yeah i assume even rogue traders have to pay the tithe to some extent

plush mason
copper patrol
#

and that's if the rogue trader is cooperating

#

if not, then good luck trying to get anything done

#

or good luck trying to stay alive

#

depending what dirty secrets the trader has

#

Do tau have slaves?

storm jungle
#

Not really, they are more systematic slavery ala China

#

or say Super-Earth kind, full authoritarian

near wasp
#

They have a caste system so not slavery per day more like being a third class citizen

rocky gale
#

It's not slavery, you just have to do whatever you're told or you die

arctic talon
# soft thunder Do tau have slaves?

They have prisoners in re education camps so those count as slaves technically

But they don’t have slavery the same way the imperium or drukhari do.

They also have a caste system which is systemetic oppression and restrictions

#

So….

#

If any of the 2 things count as slavery to you

#

Yes

abstract vector
#

Combined with How Auxilliery Races are never included by the Caste System means majority cant become governors (except special cases) and Usually its the water caste handle governments or Labour Camps

valid needle
abstract vector
#

at worse Sterilization Camp like in Dark Crusade

valid needle
abstract vector
#

Oh yeah

#

Ethereals are the only ones managing your role on society (even auxiliery races)

arctic talon
#

Which is horrible

#

But it’s more rare to occur then them just

#

Brainwashing you with propaganda

#

And labor

valid needle
#

So basically “If slavery doesn’t work just kill em”

arctic talon
#

Nah

#

Sterilize them then work them to death

#

So slavery into death

#

Re education camps you get let out eventually

#

Even if your brain gets fried to slag and you’re barely functional

#

💀

abstract vector
#

Dark Crusade has either Segregate the sexes to reduce birth rates or kill some of then

#

Another one is Sterilization project hinting maybe biological methods

storm jungle
#

Sterilization has literally been barely mentioned outside of Dark Crusade

#

gonna need you to shut up bronx

arctic talon
#

It’s mentioned in two places ever

#

It’s like

Extremely rare

@arctic talon fill em in

celest dome

funny but i'll be happy to see it over 💀

#

such a nothing burger controversy

arctic talon
#

TLDR they are using AI for internal slides and also some artists are using the tools in unreal engine/photoshop to compile image sources using a LLM search tool

jade holly
arctic talon
#

TLDR your choice on if it’s bad

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

I personally dont give a shit ngl

wintry cloud
#

Eh

arctic talon
#

Rather then Google™

#

lol

jade holly
#

I mean it’s a tool

wintry cloud
#

Yeah

arctic talon
#

Idk it’s inoffensive to me

jade holly
#

AI is just a tool to use to streamline processes

arctic talon
#

It’s literally just a fancy search engine

#

It’s not generative AI aside from the

#

Internal slides shit

jade holly
#

I’m fine with it as long as it isn’t in the end product replacing actual art

#

BLACK OPS 7

wintry cloud
#

Its whatever if its not like really doing any harm—looks like they’re just using it to make menial tasks easier

arctic talon
#

Company PowerPoints already all suck ass anyways

celest dome
wintry cloud
jade holly
#

Plus AI helps see so many different dialogue paths that you may not have thought of too.

#

Hell branching decisions and outcomes is an entire major AI development branch

#

But anyways back to my Dynasty idea

#

That I have no idea how to describe

outer wave
#

Thought it was much worse with concept art or shit ngl

storm jungle

twitter/bluesky make no difference tbh

jade holly
#

I just know bluesky, Twitter and Reddit are like THE toxic places

near wasp
#

They attract toxicity like flies to a corpse

outer wave
#

Blusky I feel is less so, but yeah

#

Social media platforms are toxic generally

vagrant fox
#

myspace wasn't like this ok

outer wave
#

Never used it

#

Devil's Proof for me

storm jungle
#

Again every single social media site is like this lol

#

Instagram, Twitter, Tiktok, Facebook, Youtube, etc

#

this weird ass "twitter is the only evil place ever" obsession is very bizarre

outer wave
#

Its definitely the most open about it

storm jungle
#

Yeah thats probably why

#

ive seen twitter-tier racism on most youtube shorts i watch lol

outer wave
#

Like other spots will get you banned for having a nickname like "HITLERRULES88" or something

#

And saying you know, less great things about certain folks

#

But yeah

queen laurel
valid needle
queen laurel
#

Don't be surprised if you make an open website where you're allowed to post stuff and in the reverse flash is just one of the users

outer wave
#

88 has been linked to the 8th letter in the alphabet, H, so two 8s is HH

#

(Heil Hitler)

valid needle
outer wave
#

Yeah they get creative with getting the message across that they dont like people

valid needle
#

It’s a bit cryptic

outer wave
#

Yeah, ditto with other symbols like Nordic runes, the Black Sun, etc

young pecan
#

Never before have I so frequently gotten into arguments with outright pedophiles than I did before I got banned on Twitter

New album drops with the game

#

I did like the robo voice

surreal nest
#

They take 15% of a story that could be spun as bad and run with it

#

even if half the game was generated with AI there's no point in just harassing somebody over it

crystal forum
#

deserved for using AI

tough haven
#

Using ai to brainstorm shit might be the worst idea

#

Gonna get the most unoriginal recycled shit

#

Better off googling examples

#

It’s the pointless

crystal forum
#

that's why concept artists exist

#

a very important role in the creative process

tough haven
#

Could probably just get better results by having your 79 artists fucking just talk to each other about it

crystal forum
#

a concept artist sometimes will be the one deciding how and entire game aesthetic will look because it comes straight from their brain

tough haven
crystal forum
#

also

#

if you can't sketch stuff yourself then that's a skill issue

#

an LLM will not be able to replace the ability to put onto paper what's inside your head

tough haven
#

Superman image encouraging people to learn to draw

crystal forum
#

i cant draw for shit but that's why i hired a concept artist to help with my models in the past

queen laurel
tough haven
#

People just wanna remove the human aspect of processes

#

Or rather paying the human aspect

crystal forum
#

that's the thing

#

they just dont want to pay artists

#

that's the whole motivation behind AI

tough haven
#

They can dress it up all they want, but they just want unpaid labor

arctic talon
tough haven
#

Try it sometime

arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

But larien literally has concept artists still

tough haven
#

Yeah so why do you need to use ai lol?

crystal forum
arctic talon
tough haven
#

It’d be like paying a contractor to fix your appliances then getting some random guy off the street to hear their opinions on what the contractor should do

arctic talon
#

Also internal shitty PowerPoints using AI whatever

#

Concept artists using Machine learning search tools is whatever

#

They’re not literally generating art

tough haven
#

Even still

#

I just don’t see a point

arctic talon
#

If you’re going to shit on them be accurate about it

crystal forum
#

classic softeng response

arctic talon
tough haven
#

Seems pointless

arctic talon
crystal forum
#

literally any use of AI at any point of the creative process is just unethical

#

idc what the excuses are

#

there's so many normal alternatives ESPECIALLY when there's literally artists right there

arctic talon
#

Which they aren’t using

#

Like it’s still stupid they’re using AI at all

#

But it’s not like they’re literally AI generating concept art

#

It’s still fucking dumb they’re using it but whatever

#

Nvm they are generating shit

#

lol

outer wave
#

So they are generating pictures for concept art and doing stuff on the marketing end in terms of presentations?

crystal forum
#

if they're being that open about using AI just assume most of the artists are interns being rushed to complete a product lol

signal bramble
#

I’ve used AI when painting my 40k minis. Basically to create mock ups of my color schemes before committing to it.

arctic talon
#

These are their words not mine regarding usage for art

#

lol

outer wave
#

Yeah okay thats just weird to me

crystal forum
#

not you wolf

#

but god

arctic talon
#

No I know

#

lol

outer wave
#

So they just dont wanna google search shit?

#

I get google searching has been dogshit as of late

#

But you really dont need the AI aspect to do anything like that

crystal forum
#

yeah so they just make AI generate shit then they copy it with their art style. that's just using AI art with extra steps

#

they're still using AI as their concept artist in this case

#

because it's entirely making the "creative decisions"

misty vector
#

Yeah im not really buying it

#

Like why do they need it for reference

crystal forum
#

because creative stuff out of thin air is very difficult

#

it's a lot harder than it looks admittedly

outer wave
#

It is yeah

#

But also there's so many art reference sites out there now

#

You dont need to waste gallons of water to generate something that could've been done by a ref site

crystal forum
#

absolutely yeah. this is just artistic laziness

#

you will inevitably end up with a product that feels like AI

#

even if artists drew everything

outer wave
#

Im curious about how the game will look when it comes out, assuming they continue the AI stuff after all this

#

Im sure it'll look clean, but I am curious if there will be certain mistakes

arctic talon
#

Doubt it

#

Personally

#

But we will see

outer wave
#

Genuine shame though, I was looking forward to this

#

Probably will still follow it though and see where it goes

arctic talon
#

I’m probably not going to buy it lol

#

Unless it’s on a steep sale

outer wave
#

Were you going to do that anyway even before this whole drama bit, or nah?

arctic talon

I like divinity

outer wave
#

Ah damn dude

ah man

i'll still prob check it out because as much as i hate it every major game studio uses AI these days

I have a mild hope that they'll train it on internal assets in which case, I won't care at all

#

I would prefer it to not be there at all but w/e shit's out of the ass

i just hope the story isn't written using AI and that's all i care about

It’s referring to Khaines bloody hand

#

Which is kind of an insane thing to call your charity organization lol

The grim part of the Larian AI thing is the CEO is bragging he forced it onto the art team who hated it. He tells the story like he's proud he basically threatened to fire them if they didnt use the AI they didnt want. Horrible

Deathwatch isnt good for playing its just good for having Space Marines crop up as NPCs in Rogue Trader or Dark Heresy. Space Marines are just not fun to roleplay as

#

Deathwatch is good if you want combat heavy stuff

#

Imo

#

If you don’t

#

Why bother

hollow lantern
#

Its fun if you want to roll dice

#

I like all the FFG games for different reasons

#

Dark Heresy is the best one tho

I dont think that's that of a hot take

#

HH novels are a mixture of middling to okay from what I hear, and it paints the major characters very weirdly

lament shoal
#

I'm mostly saying that because new warhammer fans who start with them go into 40k assuming that that emps and the imperium are good and justified because the HH novels portray the fall of the imperium as a tragedy

#

Which, it is, but that still doesn't take away from the fact that the emperor was an evil dictator responsible for fostering the most cruel and brutal regime imaginable

#

But unfortunately chuds have a complete lack of media literacy

And blasphemy too.
