[arctic talon]

tbf

[willow patrol]

first his garden gets fuckin burnt down

[arctic talon]

the deathguard won the startide nexus

lol

[willow patrol]

Oh damn

Still kinda impressive they caused mortarion to retreat

although death guard seem like the most... inadequate legion to fight tau

[arctic talon]

the power of gun™

tbf things literally did not go well for the Tau

the Death guard basicially teleported

right into a large chunk of unprotected Tau space

and they had their "fun"

on the surface of worlds

and pretty much ruined several

[willow patrol]

Did the Tau not have like

[arctic talon]

lol

[willow patrol]

Their uhh

Railgun units and all deployed?

[arctic talon]

They did, but you have to remember this was like 80% of the entire death guard legion

including daemons

all at once

[willow patrol]

bro what the fuck 😭

[arctic talon]

appearing in the middle of Tau space

[willow patrol]

thanks gw

[arctic talon]

this wasn't even their intended destination

💀

like

the deathguard fucked up

[spring cairn]

this artwork so raw

[arctic talon]

their warp jump

[willow patrol]

So GW just wanted to shit on Tau again LOL

[arctic talon]

tbh

the Tau got their wins as well

[willow patrol]

I'm coping sorry

[arctic talon]

in post 8e lore

[rocky gale]

Everyone gets a turn to be shit on

[arctic talon]

but yeah the startide nexus was a

[willow patrol]

i just hate to see xenos get like

curbstomped lol

[arctic talon]

Tau getting their shit pushed in incident

lol

[willow patrol]

cuz imperium takes precedent

[arctic talon]

tbf

the death guard aren't imperium

lol

sorta

[willow patrol]

But if they were fighting a Imperium unit then they'd be losing is what I mean LOL

[arctic talon]

I mean

not really

ironically

[spring cairn]

do u have any recent official artwork but with the Taus winning ?

[arctic talon]

the Tau have a great record

against the imperium

[willow patrol]

uhmmm

[arctic talon]

one moment

[willow patrol]

One sec

[arctic talon]

I do lambda

lol

[storm jungle]

Tau always lose in artwork

its hilarious

[spring cairn]

thanks you please

[spring cairn]

way too much

[storm jungle]

Yeah its legit so annoying

[spring cairn]

which is aggravating because I love the Taus

[willow patrol]

Which is weird since tactically the Tau should be like

way more competent

[storm jungle]

its bad because like

theres literal art of tau

getting fucking melted by necrons

[arctic talon]

the Tau lose in art so much

lol

[willow patrol]

i'm p sure all the fire warriors training wise are hyper competent

[arctic talon]

its weird

[storm jungle]

but you can NEVER find tau art doing that instead

[arctic talon]

fire warriors are scion equivelents

yeah

[willow patrol]

@spring cairn this is a p solid example

[spring cairn]

yeah i saw thx

[storm jungle]

yeah but its like a handful

[languid meadow]

my fav

[spring cairn]

it's kind of old tho no ?

[storm jungle]

tau lose in like 40 artworks

[storm jungle]

Kinda

its 9th edition

[willow patrol]

Tau shouldn't even be near necrons tho right?

[arctic talon]

No

theres necrons near Tau space

[spring cairn]

Elite's more recent it's the killteam stuff

[arctic talon]

Sautekh dynasty

[spring cairn]

but it's just the weird bugss

[arctic talon]

its like under 4 years old

[spring cairn]

give me some fire warriors

[arctic talon]

anything under 10 years old is young for 40k

I'm ngl

[spring cairn]

yeah

I agree

[languid meadow]

the art piece has some bits of humor in it

like this warrior helping his buddy

[spring cairn]

why is he struggling so much lmao

[willow patrol]

Old af but

[spring cairn]

yeah it's old

they need to show Taus winning

in 4k

[arctic talon]

Ignore all the damaged battle suits

they literally just blew up a Ork rok in orbit

lol

[spring cairn]

that goofy sword that I hate

[willow patrol]

afaik Farsights winning more then the original Tau uhh

worlds

[arctic talon]

so this was in a FFG thing

I have no clue which one

but I think the tau glassing an imperial city is a W

lol

[arctic talon]

from 2014

[celest dome]

"Paul stop playing with the trap door"
"Near, Far, Where ever you are..."

[willow patrol]

Glassing cities seems uncharacteristic for Tau but

[arctic talon]

tbf they'd do it if they need to

[willow patrol]

ig it's cuz of them seeing some hive worlds as just being to loyal to the emperor

[arctic talon]

the Tau are gunboat dimplomacy the faction

[spring cairn]

11 years ago, 1 year too old to be considered recent by our objective warhammer standards sorryz

[celest dome]

2014, could look at the Rpg that had something release for them at the time

[willow patrol]

GW when they see a scenario where the Tau win in current 40k:

[languid meadow]

this art piece feels so weird to me idk why

[willow patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/throwing-gif-20173152

[languid meadow]

it looks like an artist rendition of Dresden

[arctic talon]

40k gallery what the fuck 💀

[spring cairn]

it looks very ww2'esque by design probably

[willow patrol]

Oh yeah it sucks they'er saying tau sSTINAHSSSKS OH GOD WHAT THE HELL

[spring cairn]

those tau planes don't help

[celest dome]

It's since they started to add fan arts

[spring cairn]

they aren't the best lookings imo

[arctic talon]

not sure if this counts as winning or not, but the codex cover

[willow patrol]

I think what's funny is lorewise Tau literally have a god damn

[arctic talon]

from 9e

or 8e

[willow patrol]

Titan sized

[arctic talon]

Idfk

[willow patrol]

Species

That has never been used in art work

[arctic talon]

tbf

they're very new

[storm jungle]

My rule is it doesnt count unless we are seeing someone get violently owned at the forefront

[celest dome]

They have Psyker bears

[willow patrol]

THEY AREN'

[arctic talon]

that species did not exist till 10e

[willow patrol]

AREN'T

[storm jungle]

this background kill shit is weak

[rocky gale]

Most of the Tau auxiliary have never had artwork

[willow patrol]

They've been around for what like 3 years

[celest dome]

I hate that we don't have Psyker bear models or arts

[willow patrol]

I want my Tau humans

[spring cairn]

there's 1 ork getting point blank blasted in the codex art so

not in the forefront tho

[arctic talon]

ngl its still so fucking funny how the Ethereal looks so evil in this art

[spring cairn]

sadly

[arctic talon]

when he's like

[willow patrol]

peak tau auxillaries guys

[arctic talon]

the least evil ethereal

GW has made in years

[rocky gale]

Looks like the cover of an early 2000s RTS game

[spring cairn]

Shadow Ethereal money gang

[willow patrol]

Is Farsight getting set up to become like

the leader of the tau as a whole

[spring cairn]

we love pheromones

[celest dome]

Not really

[arctic talon]

no

Aun'va is being set up to be replaced

[willow patrol]

given he has the damn uhh

[arctic talon]

but Ethereals are too iconic to the Tau

[willow patrol]

Life sword

[arctic talon]

and Farsight is WAY too racist

to ethereals lol

[willow patrol]

Doesn't he violate the caste system

[arctic talon]

no

partially

but he keeps it around mostly

[willow patrol]

I thought his copilot was of a different caste ors omething

Which is a big no no

[arctic talon]

yes

but he allows exceptions

to the caste rules

[storm jungle]

wtf do you mean no

[arctic talon]

he does not like

[storm jungle]

THERES NO CASTE SYSTEM IN THE ENCLAVES

[arctic talon]

THERE LITERALLY IS

[storm jungle]

No there isnt

shut your asian ass up

[arctic talon]

when did they fucking change this

[storm jungle]

someone kill this guy

[storm jungle]

:]

[arctic talon]

silence Turk

smh

[spring cairn]

turk on asian violence

almost feels like home

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/spider-man-miles-morales-i-love-chai-tea-chai-tea-tea-gif-4537088392959266195

[willow patrol]

I just thought that Farsight was considered more

[arctic talon]

he is more progressive

[willow patrol]

Moral and willing to itnergrate other groups

[arctic talon]

he's also racist to the Ethereals still

lol

[willow patrol]

including humans n all

[arctic talon]

I mean he is

[willow patrol]

part of me debates mentally whether or not it makes sense for the tau to be so naive as to trust dark eldar right off the bat

[arctic talon]

Tbf

It does

[willow patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-memoji-gif-23490017

yk what it isn't fair

[arctic talon]

The Tau literally made friends

with the kroot

[willow patrol]

No to be fair, it isn't fair

[arctic talon]

who eat people

[winged jacinth]

I don't think the tau worlds ever had a raiding problem either

[arctic talon]

yeah

[willow patrol]

It isn't fair that even the most vague ass

[arctic talon]

the tau literally do not judge a book by its cover

[willow patrol]

unimportant space marine chapter

somehow have more wins then the tau do as a entire faction

[arctic talon]

unfortunately in 40k the Dark Eldar should be judged by their cover

lol

[winged jacinth]

The tau are small and insular they've probably never met craftworld eldar

[languid meadow]

I thought Biel Tan had a Tau encounter

[winged jacinth]

Its possible

[willow patrol]

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Vorgh_(Xenos_Species)

[arctic talon]

that was after

they ran into the dark eldar

[willow patrol]

The only issue with these guys is i'm not sure like

[arctic talon]

The Tau order of meeting Eldar was

[willow patrol]

If they can withstand the shots

[arctic talon]

Dark Eldar - > Exodites -> Craftworld Eldar -> (Beil'tan)

[languid meadow]

3 strikes in a row

lmfao

[willow patrol]

It just feels like such a punch in the nose 😭

[winged jacinth]

Presumably they armor the vorghs lol

[arctic talon]

the Tau have won more campaign books then the Imperium

[spring cairn]

they got the worst craftworld

[arctic talon]

but thats mostly because all the post 8e campaign books are nothing but chaos wins

[spring cairn]

possible

[hollow lantern]

Hasn't the imperium been getting their ass

[languid meadow]

We'll never get vorgh models I think but I would still love just art for them

[hollow lantern]

Like in campaigns for idk

[arctic talon]

Look Beil'tan was nice to them the first time

and then the second time

they just fucking murdered them

LOL

[hollow lantern]

A couple of years now?

[arctic talon]

yes

since 8e

[willow patrol]

I forget are the Tau on the other side of the eye of terror explosion

[arctic talon]

[spring cairn]

insane they didn't just kill them the first time

[willow patrol]

where the cut off imperium is

[storm jungle]

barely noticable

mid

[arctic talon]

Imperium has not won a single campaign book

since 8e started

which is hilarious

lol

[languid meadow]

every faction loss is barely noticeable

[winged jacinth]

Tbf they have to every invasion is a full on existential threat

[arctic talon]

Chaos has won every campaign book

[willow patrol]

remember guys only reason abaddon beat sigiusmund was plot armor

[arctic talon]

it showed up in

[storm jungle]

^

this is why i hate this dumbass thing of

[languid meadow]

that's the point

[storm jungle]

"erm they havent won any campaigns"

nobody notices or cares

M I D

[arctic talon]

I want chaos to lose to literally anybody

[spring cairn]

yeah but my fav factions should never lose tho

[arctic talon]

I'm ngl

lol

[spring cairn]

have u considered that

[arctic talon]

fuck it

Urien rakarth mogs Abbadon

thats the next campaign book I want

GW make it happen

[winged jacinth]

Abaddon's arms should fall off for real

[willow patrol]

I feel like

the blood angels would like

steamroll a chaos encounter post baal

[winged jacinth]

Its been 10000 years those joints have to be weakening

[languid meadow]

im so used to Rakarth being used to talk about the fantasy rakarth

[storm jungle]

I mean no

[hollow lantern]

God forbid they run up against Genestealers tho

[storm jungle]

a "chaos encounter" can range from like

a warband of 20 CSM

to an entire fucking fleet

lmao

same goes for BAs

[willow patrol]

I mean in like

[arctic talon]

The primaris yearn for the space hulk

[willow patrol]

a full on battle

[arctic talon]

let them in GW

[hollow lantern]

Blood Angels have it too good

[storm jungle]

same rule

[hollow lantern]

Send em into another Hulk

[storm jungle]

theres no "standard" battle size in 40k

[arctic talon]

the primaris yearn for the Hulk

[willow patrol]

WDYM THEY JUST LOST LIKE

[arctic talon]

they must have it

[willow patrol]

Most of their

foundings

[storm jungle]

I mean no?

[arctic talon]

the BA got mogged in Arks of Omen again lol

but who cares

lol

[storm jungle]

the ones they lost were invented for Devastation

they got 1 sentence of lore

LMAO

[arctic talon]

yeah any of the chapters that went extinct

during devestation

[storm jungle]

^

[arctic talon]

were litearlly invented

for the book

[winged jacinth]

Born to die, world is a fuck

[hollow lantern]

There's been exactly one loss that's actually mattered large scale in 40k imo and it's Cadia

[arctic talon]

chapters almost going extinct doesn't count

lol

[storm jungle]

their entire lore is literally

"They were present on the Devastation of Baal"

[willow patrol]

LOL

[storm jungle]

"mattered" is crazy

[languid meadow]

most of their losses were replenished anyway with primaris

[rocky gale]

They died for our sins

[arctic talon]

Fall of Cadia + Fracturing of Beil'tan prolly tbh

in terms of impact on the setting

lol

[storm jungle]

all KKKadians should blow up

[hollow lantern]

Mattered is used very loosely there

[willow patrol]

Do you guys think Dante would forgive the Lamenters

[arctic talon]

Yes

[storm jungle]

Yes

[hollow lantern]

I'm mainly speaking as a catalyst for Nihilus to exist

[storm jungle]

why wouldt he

[arctic talon]

but thats because Dante has no balls/j

[languid meadow]

space wolves going from under 700 marines to a couple of thousands in one book

[arctic talon]

The Lamenters got off light

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/absolute-cinema-raccoon-absolute-cinema-gif-17862327649353748812

[willow patrol]

Bc they didn't return to Baal

[arctic talon]

They literally couldn't

[storm jungle]

Lametners were literally a part of the council that judged Seth of the Flesh Tearers with Dante

[arctic talon]

they're like

[storm jungle]

^

[arctic talon]

40 fucking dudes rn

• like a few thousand slaves

lol

[storm jungle]

Dante is a smart leader, he'd now why they couldnt arrive lol

hes not a piece of shit

[willow patrol]

I know it's just that they're the outliars because apparently they were the

ONLY ones

[arctic talon]

not true

Atlantean Spears

[willow patrol]

Oh mb

[arctic talon]

also said fuck off

[willow patrol]

I thought it was basically "everyone showed up except lamenters"

[arctic talon]

nah

[hollow lantern]

Didn't uhhh, Angels Vermillion also say "no"

[arctic talon]

There were a few chapters that didn't

Yeah but 3 companies went rogue

and went to Dante

[willow patrol]

The lamenters are also like

[arctic talon]

also Seth really doesn't like the Lamenters

[willow patrol]

Stuck in a penance crusade so I'm not sure the inquisition would've let them

[arctic talon]

A puddle of piss in a sea of blood

[storm jungle]

their penance crusade is done

[arctic talon]

yeah

[willow patrol]

was it done during baakl

baal

[storm jungle]

man people are so obsessed with Lamenters lol

[arctic talon]

their penance crusade was done

in M41.999

lol

[willow patrol]

Ahh

[arctic talon]

They had just begun replenishing

[willow patrol]

I like them but that's also bc they were one of my first introductions to space marines

[languid meadow]

ah the year 41.999 where everything happens

[willow patrol]

and i found their sort of idea cool

[storm jungle]

You can do better

[languid meadow]

and nothing happens

[arctic talon]

the lamenters were literally hardcore traitors

lol

during badab

they deserved

everything bad

that happened to them at Badab

[willow patrol]

They didn't do it on purpose 😭

[arctic talon]

Yes they did

lol

[willow patrol]

They were literally

No they weren't

[arctic talon]

they were ride or die with Huron

[languid meadow]

I will glaze traitors all day because I just hate the minotaurs that much

I HATE THE MINOS

[willow patrol]

I'll die on this hill literally every lore video you could watch on them will say they were tricked

[arctic talon]

even while he was being spiky

[languid meadow]

NEPO BABY CHAPTER

[arctic talon]

THEY LITERALLY WEREN'T

[willow patrol]

IT WASN'T INTENTIONAL

[arctic talon]

anyways INFINITE TAX EVASION

[storm jungle]

Chadtaurs

[winged jacinth]

The lamenters when bad stuff happens to them: "i am lamenting this"

[storm jungle]

eat my plasma

[arctic talon]

GLORY TO THE RED CORSAIRS

[languid meadow]

bait

[arctic talon]

I LOVE HURON BLACKHEART

[willow patrol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXMcOYyDs-w dw guys this lore video will explain everything

[arctic talon]

yes it was

they literally knew

everything

Huron was up to

they stuck with him to the bitter end

[languid meadow]

the minos suffer from a problem that a lot of chapters suffer from

have a theme and not following it

[rocky gale]

That's why my chapter is better, they'd never be tricked like that

[arctic talon]

a not insignifcant part of the Lamenters literally JOINED THE RED CORSAIRS AS FOUNDING MEMBERS

[storm jungle]

bait

[willow patrol]

they didn't mean to betray the IMPERIUM

[storm jungle]

"not following it"

[arctic talon]

I mean

they did

[storm jungle]

they literally do their entire theme

[arctic talon]

[languid meadow]

they're brown that's it

[arctic talon]

They knew what they were geting into

[languid meadow]

where is their swag

[arctic talon]

with Huron's marine supremacy thing

[storm jungle]

they should have tbh

the Imperium sucks

lol

[winged jacinth]

The lamenters fake motto is one of my favorite bits of meta-lore

[willow patrol]

Was Badab even a "Traitor" incident or just

A power struggle

[arctic talon]

going from the Imperium to Huron is like going from Hitler to another Hitler

[languid meadow]

RWBY fan fic btw

funny asf

[arctic talon]

except second hitler is even more racist somehow

ZE ASTARTES ARE ZE UBERSMENCH

[storm jungle]

its not

[willow patrol]

The Lamenters fleet is literally non existent

[storm jungle]

that was a uncertain lead SnipeWib found

[arctic talon]

• Huron Blackheart

[storm jungle]

it isnt even true as they said

[languid meadow]

you've said it

I justknow

[willow patrol]

The lamenters hate in this chat is crazy

[storm jungle]

No

[arctic talon]

this may shock you but most line marines in chapters are pretty unadorned lol

[arctic talon]

no I like them

lol

I just think they're stupid as well

[storm jungle]

"oh wow my good guy space marines helping the nazi space empire they are so nice"

[willow patrol]

YOU LIKE THEM FOR THE WRONG REASONS-

[arctic talon]

no

[willow patrol]

They weren't traitors to the imperium

[winged jacinth]

It sounds like it could be from a fanfic for sure at least

[spring cairn]

hate all marines equally and u will know peace

[arctic talon]

I like them because they have a fun color scheme

lol

[languid meadow]

I will grant them Moloch is a cool name and has a cool design but that's it

[spring cairn]

peace of heart, peace of mind

[arctic talon]

anyways

Huron is my GOAT

my favorite space marine

[willow patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-memoji-gif-23490017

[languid meadow]

but that is like a decent bit of the chapter masters

some are swagless tho

[willow patrol]

I forget why tf did the minotaurs steamroll them again

[storm jungle]

They deploy at chapter strenght an dgot amazing equipment

[willow patrol]

I meant in the sense of uh

[storm jungle]

it was 1000 marines vs like 50 lamenters

[willow patrol]

Why did the minotaurs like

Rob them

[arctic talon]

why the fuck is he so handsome in this art lol

[storm jungle]

🫡

[arctic talon]

they are allowed to

[vagrant fox]

because it was deserved

[willow patrol]

I DON'T SUPPORT THE IMPERIUM 😭

i glaze the tau

[arctic talon]

should be the stroggification scene

[storm jungle]

this is funnier

shut up

[languid meadow]

this video is lame because it doesn't use the Quake scene

REAL

same thought

[arctic talon]

Send them to the Re-education camp

[storm jungle]

the muffled screaming

really helps

lmao

[arctic talon]

Oh Gloriuous Aun'Va

[willow patrol]

I don't support tha imperium...

[arctic talon]

[willow patrol]

But I do like our suffering marines

[rocky gale]

What's this from?

[languid meadow]

I forgot calgars name lmfao

[storm jungle]

Outlast Trials intro cutscene

[arctic talon]

anyways Huron is my favorite tax evader

[languid meadow]

I was trying to think of the most swagless chapter master and it was him

[storm jungle]

oh my god

[willow patrol]

a customer at my job once said i look like a young jd vance and i'm never gonna mentally recover

[storm jungle]

SHUT THE FUCK UP ELITE

[arctic talon]

[storm jungle]

YOU ASID IT 4 TIMES

lmao

[arctic talon]

[storm jungle]

[winged jacinth]

My favorite tax evader is martha stewart

[languid meadow]

My fav mary stu

[queen laurel]

nah how about i skin you two both

[languid meadow]

I give him a pass for his swag

[willow patrol]

The custodes bringing the lamenters their primaris reinforcements only to see it’s like 50 marines left with one ship

[languid meadow]

My woke king Quintus from the brotherhood

[arctic talon]

is this from the show

💀

I cannot keep track of names

[languid meadow]

yes

[spring cairn]

goated game btw

[languid meadow]

he's the elder of the chapter

[willow patrol]

Do they even still have their original ship with the geneseed

[spring cairn]

eternally incorrect

i will not tolerate trials slander

[languid meadow]

and of the most religious chapter out of (S2 spoilers for fallout) ||the ones who showed up in E2 are the most tolerent my woke king Quintus||

[spring cairn]

is ep2 out ?

[languid meadow]

yes on the 24th

[arctic talon]

mike brooks signature is goofy as fuck lmao

10/10

[languid meadow]

next one is on new years

[arctic talon]

bro just draws himself

[willow patrol]

https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Malakim_Phoros do we think bro is alive even

[arctic talon]

next to a vaguely M shaped signature

[arctic talon]

He is alive explictly

[willow patrol]

Is he just not mentioned in any of the newer lamenter lore

[vagrant fox]

he should be dead

total lamenter death

[storm jungle]

Bro read the lexi

god damn

[languid meadow]

naur

brainwashing

[storm jungle]

no

more like me smashing your skull

[languid meadow]

shush short ass

[willow patrol]

p sure i can't without buying it

unless gw isn't good at protecting against 🏴‍☠️

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/short-loki-loki-short-loki-caption-caption-gif-17568727989423340749

[storm jungle]

wdym buying it

its a public wiki

[willow patrol]

i thought u were talking about a book

[storm jungle]

💀

I quit

[vagrant fox]

kill him

[willow patrol]

I can't even act like i'm ragebaiting rn, I know about the lexi wiki but I thought you meant an actual like

40k book

[vagrant fox]

Sentenced to reading every single black book

[storm jungle]

the black books are good

they are just very long

lol

[arctic talon]

And also dry lore often

but they're good

[winged jacinth]

The Fandom wiki is composed of poorly edited stolen pages from the lexicanum

[willow patrol]

the fandom wiki also is kinda contradictory

[vagrant fox]

Man has to read good lore

[storm jungle]

pictures too

[languid meadow]

ye

[storm jungle]

not even "kinda"

[languid meadow]

that's why you dont use it

[storm jungle]

it completely is

[willow patrol]

like it'll state yes the lamenters have a chapter master named and then the lex says they don't have one it's unknown

[languid meadow]

the problem with it being open to everyone

random bullshit

[winged jacinth]

It probably provides an insulating layer against shitty editors but also people think its right which is a problem

[vagrant fox]

The fan wiki anyone can edit without sources is inaccurate often yes

[winged jacinth]

If fandom and the lex disagree i can't think of a time its been the lexicanum that's wrong

Never had the fake lamenters motto

No source not posting it

Also the fandom wiki is on fandom which is really awful

[vagrant fox]

Seeing the warcry disappear and reappear as they were fighting until the page got locked was very funny

[willow patrol]

Is it actually fake

[winged jacinth]

Yeah

[vagrant fox]

Yes

[willow patrol]

That’s a shame it kinda went hard

[winged jacinth]

[willow patrol]

That one lamenters dreadnought just vibing in deathwatch

[winged jacinth]

"I sure hope nothing bad is happening to my chapter and its there when i get back 🙂 "

[willow patrol]

Is there any actual concrete evidence the lamenters are like

Less then 100 marines

[willow patrol]

He thinks he’s the last one

[winged jacinth]

Aww

[willow patrol]

Which I mean I wouldn’t blame him with the Lamenters luck

[winged jacinth]

Hes probably lamenting that

How expensive is actual 40k tabletop to get into

[winged jacinth]

Kasrkin when the deathmarks start double tapping them

[willow patrol]

If we subtract painting

[arctic talon]

like

40k the wargame?

or just killteam

[willow patrol]

Yeah

[arctic talon]

lol

Like

[languid meadow]

Kasrkins FRAUD
Scions GOATED

[arctic talon]

minium 400$

if you play custodes

and build their patrol optimal

for a full 2k points

[willow patrol]

Jesus

[arctic talon]

otherwise

its just a combat patrol

[winged jacinth]

You can buy a killteam box for like $80 and play that

[arctic talon]

for 500 points

or combat patrol

lol

if you're playing at 500 poitns

its way cheaper

its like 200$ max

for 500 points

unless you're playing horde guard

[willow patrol]

God damn

Also Slann in fantasy:

[arctic talon]

but if you're playing horde guard

at 500 points

you're fucking insane

Slann in 40k

https://tenor.com/view/frog-gif-21912345

https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Slann we have slann at home

[winged jacinth]

Slaan in 40k are like little lizard guys for some reason

[arctic talon]

I hate democracy(not my image but still)

[celest dome]

Slaan in 40k are the ones that created the orks and uplifted the Eldar to what they became

[winged jacinth]

They're not the old ones anymore that's ancient lore

[willow patrol]

Aren’t the old ones just forgotten lore in 40k

[arctic talon]

no

they're modern lore

[winged jacinth]

The old ones are still fresh but the slann haven't appeared forever

[arctic talon]

yeah

the Slann are dead lore in 40k

lol

[willow patrol]

Huh interesting

[winged jacinth]

The slann in fantasy arent the old ones either

[willow patrol]

Is it similar to fantasy where they just like

Dipped

[vagrant fox]

One annoying session in the galactic community too many drives a mfer to xenophobe

[winged jacinth]

Hazier but probably

[arctic talon]

The Old ones literally got genocided as far as we know

[winged jacinth]

The old ones are gone but they could be fled or dead

Or hiding somewhere extradimensional

[willow patrol]

Something that bugs me about the emperor is him living through the entirety of humanities history but then also making the same mistakes as past humans

[vagrant fox]

Worry not GW will pull out an Old One for maximum profits in two decades

[winged jacinth]

They built the webway they could have another black library type place

[willow patrol]

The C’tan and old ones are different right

[winged jacinth]

Enemies

The war in heaven was between them

[willow patrol]

Gotcha

[winged jacinth]

The old ones were a magitek wizard race and the ctan were star parasites

[willow patrol]

Literally is able to see what xenophobia can do to humanity

Commits to massacring every alien race they can find anyways

[winged jacinth]

(The emperor looking at his goons in SS uniforms) "huh this feels familiar... probably nothing"

[celest dome]

Cause the EMperor is not a good person nor is he a good Emperor

[willow patrol]

But like

He had ALL of humanities history to observe

[winged jacinth]

Yeah he makes really bad decisions lol

[willow patrol]

And can’t even be a good father

[celest dome]

And he was never a good person

[winged jacinth]

Its implied he has trouble even relating to normal humans

[celest dome]

You can give someone the whole eternity, and they could still be a bad person

[winged jacinth]

Hes like an alien himself ironically

[celest cedar]

because he dumb as hell

[young pecan]

A conservative who lives for thousands of years without thinking will still be a conservative

[celest cedar]

space hitler headahh

[young pecan]

That's just how it is

[celest dome]

If anything, it might cause them to become ever more radically conservative

[willow patrol]

Look there’s a good chance he could’ve been a SS member

[young pecan]

Confirmation bias over the course of thousands of years

Yeah LOL

[celest cedar]

naah he's too brown skinned for that 💀

[celest dome]

The more the outside change, the more reactive a conservative will be

[willow patrol]

See Iraqi Nazis

[celest cedar]

but he deadahh wouldve been inspired by nazi germans

[celest dome]

Biomancy, he can change form

[celest cedar]

really?

[celest dome]

ye

Also Telepathy

There is also illusions

[celest cedar]

romaboos and them failing to see the parallels

[willow patrol]

Is there any historical figure that is thought to have been the emperor in 40k lore

like napoleon ors ome shit

[vagrant fox]

Malcador says the emps was a woman when it suited him
That means the emps is girlpower

[willow patrol]

Malc also had the idea to make the primarchs daughters

[arctic talon]

Malc was also stupid and sexist for thinking that would make them less argumentative

💀

and fight less

[storm jungle]

Alexander the Great is the only canon one

[vagrant fox]

It's more or less confirmed he was Alexander the Great

[storm jungle]

otherwise we dont know

[celest dome]

And that is him claiming it

Right

[willow patrol]

Nah I know where Alexander the Greats soul went

[celest dome]

COuld have been a lie

[storm jungle]

Horus

[willow patrol]

One sec uhh

[young pecan]

In his defense, studies show that women have a slightly higher chance of being empathetic and being less violent

Still stupid though

[celest cedar]

what would his name be

[vagrant fox]

I was so tempted to post that

[willow patrol]

https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Macharius This is where Alexander the Greats soul went

[celest cedar]

would it be Turkish or something Iraqi related

[young pecan]

Just mod out the stupid brain bro, you literally can craft their genes

[willow patrol]

Old 40k lore relatin to perpetuals seems headache inducing

[vagrant fox]

It's nonsense

[willow patrol]

Something something

[arctic talon]

[arctic talon]

[spring cairn]

[hollow lantern]

A small segment of the roster, remember old McGinnis or old Ivy?

[rocky gale]

I remember the time the Discord servers all died and nobody could send messages, but it would still show the "Is typing" message and still updates their name if they changed it, so everyone just used their names to have conversations until it was fixed

[arctic talon]

in Deadlock

[spring cairn]

and they can sleep u

[arctic talon]

McGinnis was never not attractive I'm ngl

Old Ivy was def more

monstrous

[spring cairn]

abrams is hot btw

[celest dome]

Mordian and Harakoni Warhawks

[arctic talon]

[young pecan]

Wow I wonder what Fencer does

[spring cairn]

fencing

[celest dome]

Venator and Grave look cool, REM too, the other eh, not a fan

[arctic talon]

Discord probably is obliterating him

somehow

Fencer makes me think

[celest dome]

But he could

[spring cairn]

Venator my favourite racist ever

[arctic talon]

Ixian

[young pecan]

Rem's face looks like a crow and then their body looks like a rodent

[arctic talon]

Venator is going to be the most Racist man alive

in Deadlock

[storm jungle]

bro this is like Stranger Things S1

[spring cairn]

i hope

[arctic talon]

bro will be the slur merchant for the super natural

[spring cairn]

i hope he's the most racist man alive

[willow patrol]

[storm jungle]

I didnt do nuffin

[storm jungle]

Thunder Bats

[willow patrol]

[young pecan]

One time I mentioned that I watch Tanner every so often and Hank personally tracked me down and gave me 50 lashings

These mods...

[celest cedar]

speaking off

[arctic talon]

are we just going to pretend he got 1984'd by the mods

lol

[vagrant fox]

Hank came to my house and beat my ass concave when I said ogryns are mid

[celest cedar]

my friend is apparently active in Tannercord and his experience is....surprisingly wholesome, even for tanner 💀

[arctic talon]

honestly I wonder if Deadlock is going to be valves "conventionally attractive characters majority™" game

[young pecan]

A buddy of mine, God rest his soul, said the ogrynomicon was kind of mid

[spring cairn]

i played with hank once b4 he was a mod

[arctic talon]

just based on like

the last

12 releases?

[young pecan]

I haven't heard from him since

[spring cairn]

back in oldgryn chat

[arctic talon]

which is fine

its just funny

[celest cedar]

New 40k fan uses crystallized meme from 2005

[willow patrol]

Lore chat can we start power scaling primarchs

[celest cedar]

Dilara you were right

[willow patrol]

[arctic talon]

[willow patrol]

By a year yeah

[arctic talon]

the discord user known as Kilroy

[vagrant fox]

One of my less socially aware friends was inspired by the angry marines to make the sexual assault in one word badgers and I've never forgiven anything since

[arctic talon]

"if you're younger then Tau stfu about Tau not fitting in you idiot"

real thing I heard in my LGS from someone who has literally never played anything but Imperium for 25 years

man is old enough to be my dad

[celest cedar]

why tf is this detailed af

[willow patrol]

I like my grimdark with a side of hopium

[arctic talon]

jokes aside Tau are like

older then a not insignifcant chunk of people

who complain about them

[hollow lantern]

Well you see

The complaints are older than those people too

40k is actually a prophecy about the people themselves playing the game

[arctic talon]

lol

where's that shitty png

of a knight

[vagrant fox]

Mecha is boring tau is boring 💯 ✅ 💯

[arctic talon]

and it says "stfu, we 40k fans will repeat the same dead jokes from 30 years ago"

[hollow lantern]

[hollow lantern]

Tbh

[celest cedar]

theyre not being supportive enough..

[arctic talon]

tbf its not hard to fuck up

looking at the internals behind it

especially if you're really bad at dispatching/hacking lol

[hollow lantern]

I was really good as dispatching

I think my entire run i did better than 80 percent of players

[dapper gyro]

Merely 80% better...

[celest cedar]

I genuinely dont remember my stats

am a real hero tho..

[hollow lantern]

I think 80 percent is as high as it gets

Cause I had a few perfect days

[dapper gyro]

Failure

Ok, just joking around. The asian blood is a little boiling.

[languid meadow]

thank you PNW

[willow patrol]

his red flags seem the most tame

[storm jungle]

I mean

[winged jacinth]

He is the only one on the team who's not been recently prosecuted for crimes

[arctic talon]

Do we count blazer/waterboy/phenomman

[winged jacinth]

No but phenomeman has his own red flags (alien that doesn't understand basic human interpersonal relations)

[storm jungle]

Alien?

thats literally most of us here

[arctic talon]

Bro doesn’t even consider himself a person

Which is

💀

[winged jacinth]

Hes actually from space iirc

[storm jungle]

His entire race considers him ugly

💀

[winged jacinth]

Waterboy actually seems like a nice guy just damp

[storm jungle]

I mean

[hollow lantern]

Tbh I didnt like Pman much

[storm jungle]

"seems"

he literally is a nice guy lol

mfer lives with his grandma

[arctic talon]

Bro is a normal dude

[storm jungle]

^

[dapper gyro]

Blaze is a direct person, I don't know why people say that she is as toxic as invis.

[winged jacinth]

Well yeah i just say seems out of habit i don't think theres a secret waterboy conspiracy

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

She’s not toxic at all lol

She’s like

[storm jungle]

Blazer is a really nice person

[arctic talon]

[winged jacinth]

Dispatch 2: the waterboy conspiracy

[storm jungle]

he said the actual twist was that there was no twist

[celest cedar]

waterboy my beloved
