[winged jacinth]

Khan moment

[arctic talon]

The NCR lost

So we actually won

[languid meadow]

Mommy Moore...

[jade holly]

Plot twist: they’re the founders of the Institute

[arctic talon]

????

[winged jacinth]

At least the fiends know how to party

[languid meadow]

Moores path in the civil war is so funny

[young pecan]

Depends on the branch

[crystal forum]

fiend lore be like:

[young pecan]

Cook-Cook is a loser bastard

[languid meadow]

like she turns the NCR into a military dictatorship with some of the best Power Armour and Tanks

and just steam rolls the legion

[winged jacinth]

the legion could probably deal with like 10 tanks total

[arctic talon]

The Legion has super sledges and the uh

flaming sword

[winged jacinth]

all their military resources combined

[arctic talon]

and some rocket launchers

they could kill like

[languid meadow]

IN OWB THEY FUCKING GET

[arctic talon]

some tanks

lol

[young pecan]

Approximately

[languid meadow]

I hate how the legion is balanced in OWB but that's a Hoi4 issue

[arctic talon]

I'm just going off of what they have ingame/wasteland warfare

[young pecan]

7 tanks

[arctic talon]

equipment wise

they do have stuff that could kill a tank

[young pecan]

"Look out for the guy running at us with a super sle-"
"He's already misted boss"
"Ok"

[arctic talon]

thermic lance

thats what it is

[languid meadow]

my main issue is that their ability to pump out an air force to rival vanilla america

[heady rivet]

Emotional support brahmin

[arctic talon]

airforce

what

as in vertibirds?

[languid meadow]

Monoplanes

[arctic talon]

does the mod creator know how hard aircraft are to build and maintain 💀

the legion could have vehicles if they stopped being backwards idiots

but planes require so much fucking infastructure its stupid

[languid meadow]

they're not supposed to with game rules but sometimes it bugs out

at most they're supposed to get gliders

but that never happens

they can get these sometimes

on top of paradox AI cheating it's miserable to fight

[heady rivet]

I mean I doubt it, even the NCR has a few personal vehicles and the only non-train ground vehicles they have are logistics trucks

[winged jacinth]

the legion cant have vehicles because you cant move a factory with a barbarian horde 🙁

[young pecan]

I think we all know what Cook Cook did with that brahmin

[languid meadow]

since they have the same amount of manpower as the NCR ON TOP of better manpower buffs

[arctic talon]

the legion having vehicles is dumb

[languid meadow]

Two-Sun gives them chariots

[arctic talon]

let them be the unwashed hordes of gun and knife wielding raiders

well

[heady rivet]

NO WAY

[arctic talon]

I guess they're too organized to be raiders

[rose thorn]

YouTube comments are as bad as guy think

[languid meadow]

They can get the chariots from van buren

[heady rivet]

We dont respect Van Buren in this house

[winged jacinth]

now this is podracing

[heady rivet]

Get yo ass on top of the fridge

hes a fucking parasite leech

[outer wave]

I imagine most of these dudes are gonna have shortened lifespans due to how often they get angry or frustrated

Their blood pressure? Has to be constantly high

[spring cairn]

four shortened lifespans

[outer wave]

No I said FOREshortened lifespans

Why are you looking at them? Look at me, not them!

[storm jungle]

[vagrant fox]

There are decades where nothing happens; and there are~~ weeks~~ days where decades happen

[winged jacinth]

glad to hear the lore is over i can FINALLY catch up

[vagrant fox]

I think I'm too addicted to this kind of schadenfreude from petty drama

[spring cairn]

no

[storm jungle]

FINALLY.

[spring cairn]

the fucking rantsona crossed its arms

we are finished

wallahli

[arctic talon]

what does the dude shout

During the elevator holdout section

“Kill the intruders”

Or something like that

[spring cairn]

KILL THE INTRUDERS

[valid needle]

If I don’t see Rogal Dorn returning to continue his war with Perturabo by mid April 2026 warhammer is ruined, games workshop have ruined warhammer 40000, you know what I’m just gonna end my stream here

[arctic talon]

It’s gona be Russ

[storm jungle]

[spring cairn]

sadly

[valid needle]

The lore phase is over. They have completely ruined it.

[valid needle]

I think he says lore phase idk I’m going with it

[arctic talon]

Ty

I can never really tell ingame

Bcs music loud

[storm jungle]

Yeah tbh its mostly just comedic

im so glad he lost his shit

legit made my night

[arctic talon]

Only 2 executions in the main 40k discord today, shame more Chuds didn’t show up lol

[vagrant fox]

was one of them that luke guy

[spring cairn]

ig they've been filtered over time

i didn't even know there was a 40k discord

i'm fucking dense man

[arctic talon]

No

He hasn’t been executed yet

[vagrant fox]

-2

[arctic talon]

TikTok lore creature

Or I guess YouTube shorts

[vagrant fox]

First thing he did was come in ranting about femstodes being a woke agenda as far as I saw

[arctic talon]

Nah

That was like a year or two into his existence

He calms down whenever he gets proven wrong but he def has chud vibes

[hollow lantern]

Everything the Eldar got corsairs?

[arctic talon]

New vyper/corsair variant

[hollow lantern]

Thanks

[arctic talon]

Along with Corsair stuff

[spring cairn]

the eldar stuff was definitely the best part

[arctic talon]

And Yirel

[spring cairn]

by far

[hollow lantern]

Always is

[arctic talon]

Eldar and custodes stuff were the best

Then Ossiarchs and corsairs

[spring cairn]

custodes too yeah

[arctic talon]

Blood bowl elves were cool

[spring cairn]

but they've never been for me

[arctic talon]

But they’re just a redo of an existing team

But bigger

[hollow lantern]

I didn't even pay attention to the custodes I'm ngl

[spring cairn]

i don't like space marines

so it's only natural i don't really like

bigger space marines

space marinerers

[hollow lantern]

Even specialer big shoulderpad havers

[arctic talon]

I’m going to call them thunderstrike custodes

For the bit

Anyways new Vyper I’m so excited

I wish it was completely enclosed for the gunner but whatever

Much better then the original

[spring cairn]

i love this guy's face

[arctic talon]

GW is extremely good at sculpting smug faces

For some reason

Like way better then any other facial expression

[tropic field]

best model was captain sargotta love navy stuff, shes very piratey

[vagrant fox]

Love her little floating doohicky

[plush mason]

[plush mason]

this is one of my fav face sculpts

Talk about polar opposites

In one the newest and best models of the range and the other the oldest and worst

[young pecan]

I'm shakign... I can not fathom women in my hobby..

[outer wave]

Me when the women are in the room:

[rocky gale]

Sex

Copius amounts of sex

Sex Unending

Holy shit all of the Custodes are so good

Actually monumental, good for them

Good night for everyone tbf

Well Horus Heresy didn't really get anything, but eh

[heady rivet]

[rose thorn]

agreed!!

femoid tzeentch followe\rf

[sacred ginkgo]

Heresy didn't get anything
All of the new custodes were for heresy

[rocky gale]

Oh right

Forgor

[heady rivet]

No Munda, bad day

[rocky gale]

I was just looking at the big tank HH got and was like "Wow another big tank for HH"

[rose thorn]

I GUESS MOER LIKE

THEMOID

[heady rivet]

That being said that Xeno thats with Huron would make a good Munda mini...

[rose thorn]

we LOVE the fateweaver

[sacred ginkgo]

The two non marines in that box being better than the rest of it combined is peak

[rocky gale]

Genuinely this is the only disappointing part of the reveals for me (and it's for my main faction)

[heady rivet]

I actually am pleasantly surprised by the Red Corsairs, I usually dont give a damn about Chaos Marines

[rocky gale]

Basically just our oldest and worst models (Except Venoms & Reavers ofc) in a value box

[storm jungle]

everyone is loving them

i think its because they look so flat, simple and minimalist

it makes them way more appealing with the old marine bits

genuinely fantastic

[rose thorn]

boarding patrol 2.0

[rocky gale]

I'd say that was the most successful GW reveal stream we've had in a while

Good models all around

No stilt boys or Coteaz's lurking in the wings

[spring cairn]

not a lot i really personally like but really cool

and the reactions to the femstodes stuff is actual peak

[rocky gale]

This is the one model I'll definitely get from all of them

[spring cairn]

If I had to get one i'd get the tarellian and pretend they were for the tau

[arctic talon]

she's in a mixed box set

unfortuntately

[arctic talon]

can prolly run it as a kroot shaper or fireblade

[rocky gale]

Ebay

[sacred ginkgo]

Waiting until we get that box so I can stare at it

[spring cairn]

on one hand

[tropic field]

it's soo good, the pegleg, big cutlass, the funny pirate sash with the pistol

[spring cairn]

awsme we got a model for them

but..

also they were my bet on what kind of "new" Tau auxilliary we could see in Total War 40k when they release the Tau as dlc

[languid meadow]

https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/kcuvmezh/new-custodes-your-questions-answered/

[spring cairn]

lmao

[arctic talon]

They can show up as au auxillary in total war

tbf

way more likely then the tabletop

[spring cairn]

yeah ik right

let me have big lizard ppl in 40k

CA will do it, I believe

[languid meadow]

Total war is the best possible thing to happen to 40k in terms of niche bullshit

But will GW let them?

Idk

[spring cairn]

hard to tell, they got lucky because fantasy was dead

so they had freedom

[languid meadow]

The only reason GW let CA do as much as they did is because they didn't care as much

[young pecan]

Total War was also the best thing that happened to Fantasy

[languid meadow]

Yea

[arctic talon]

probably imo

[spring cairn]

they're so weird with 40k

[arctic talon]

to an extent

lol

[spring cairn]

nintendo tier

[arctic talon]

GW are also weird as shit about WHFB

they put restrictions on CA and fatshark as well

[spring cairn]

they're more lax

[languid meadow]

Tzaangors

[arctic talon]

some dumb ones

they really aren't lol

Saltz couldn't have a flail without shield as warrior priest

[spring cairn]

i'd say they're inconsistent more than anything

sometimes they're chill sometimes not

for no reason

[arctic talon]

its a cointoss

lol

[rocky gale]

Probably, it's a great way to test the water on new models, see how people react to them in game, release the ones people like and the ones people don't go back to the drawing board

[spring cairn]

I havez hope

i am full of hope yum

[arctic talon]

Its like the repeater rifles

[languid meadow]

Tau auxiliaries and some random niche characters I hope for

Maybe also mechanicus stuff

[arctic talon]

on the Elspeth stuff

[spring cairn]

biggest fumble ever

[arctic talon]

they didn't let them have repeater rifles because ???? reasons

lol

like what

I mean alright I guess lol

[spring cairn]

they even fired like they had repeaters for a while

[arctic talon]

same with them being pissy about gruderakers

anyways GW is weird

[spring cairn]

because they had them in-dev

[arctic talon]

inconsistent

who fucking knows

They had them in some of the promo material

lol

it was entierly because ironsides didn't have them in lore or any depictions ever

I'm 100% sure thats why GW didn't let them have repeaters

[spring cairn]

no repeater rifles...but you can have hellstorm batteries that drop THE FUCKING PURPLE SUN ON MFS

[arctic talon]

yeah well

thats a thing in lore

ironsides with repeaters aren't

don't ask why

[spring cairn]

i didn't know that

[arctic talon]

only the master engineers have them in lore

lol

[spring cairn]

it's like a steam tank situation right

[arctic talon]

ignore all the time random handgunners or mercs appear with them as well

[spring cairn]

there's 2

[arctic talon]

Steam Tank there's 2 operational yeah

and only like

18 ever made

[spring cairn]

yea

[arctic talon]

but Repeater rifles are like sorta widespread

just not used enmass

[spring cairn]

no i meant, the uh

purple sun rocketrz

[arctic talon]

oh

yeah

its a one off wierdo thing in lore

[limpid granite]

ngl dude i think theyll add a tarellian auxhilery as models for the tau

like vespids

maybe a killteam

[spring cairn]

they have to

[rocky gale]

and Peter Turbo is coming

[spring cairn]

they LITERALLY MADE A MODEL

[languid meadow]

I think only like 2 non human auxiliaries will be added

[spring cairn]

and it's always been a tau thing first and foremost

grrrrr

[languid meadow]

I still hope we get human auxiliaries as tier 1 chaff

[limpid granite]

vespids kroot and tarellians will be added to total war

trust me

[spring cairn]

I believe

[languid meadow]

Kroot and vesps are easy

[arctic talon]

not really

[spring cairn]

they're guaranteed

[arctic talon]

it was a generic xenos thing first

[languid meadow]

Both are iconic and kroot are fucking hella popular

[arctic talon]

then they were tau mercs in 4e

[spring cairn]

i mean u get what i mean

[arctic talon]

(sometimes)

yes

[spring cairn]

yyou don't think of huron

when you think tarellian

[limpid granite]

also CA can look at other games

dark heresy has an entire kroot colony in the intro

[spring cairn]

Kroots and vespid 100% can't add Tau without them

it's for the rest that i'm hoping for something kewl

to happenz

[limpid granite]

theyve already added several monsters from old world that legit only have a throwaway lore line

[spring cairn]

yep

this is why believe

[languid meadow]

Tau wyrmships

[arctic talon]

I think of xenos mercs tbh

[spring cairn]

it's because you are a millllioooon years old

[nocturne crest]

Another fun question for anyone, but what would be the least likely named guard regiment to get tabletops models.

[limpid granite]

however

40k is a different beast from old world

[sacred ginkgo]

Its a competition

[limpid granite]

old world is not cannon so GW doesnt care that much about original stuff

[spring cairn]

Ik ik

[sacred ginkgo]

Between all of the ones with about 2 pieces of artwork

[arctic talon]

Old world is canon

what

[spring cairn]

and yeah it is

[limpid granite]

well

[spring cairn]

it's just done

[limpid granite]

the world ended

so its not important to GW

[spring cairn]

not as much as 40k

[nocturne crest]

Ah, good point.

[spring cairn]

but can't break my faith

tww40k will unironically

enhance the setting

[arctic talon]

GW does care about original stuff(to an extent)

[nocturne crest]

I wonder if people would be for Catachan jungle fighters being replaced by the Armageddon Ork Hunters.

[arctic talon]

probably not

Catachan are extremely popular

[limpid granite]

oh i have high hopes bud

[spring cairn]

gup

[nocturne crest]

Really?

[arctic talon]

yes

[heady rivet]

They're like the third most popular

After Cadian and Krieg

[arctic talon]

https://tenor.com/view/gup-risk-of-rain2-gupscare-risk-of-rain-gif-25408337

[vagrant fox]

wack how the Imperium works on ork rules of taller is more importanter

[daring creek]

[crystal forum]

yall are gross

[wary fulcrum]

So funny trivia piece

Tyberos was originally created to deliberately buck this trend by being average height, it was supposed to be a key thing about him (he also was probably a veteran sergeant, maybe a captain at Badab). The writer and friends was worried he was going into this trope that badass meant Giant, so they created Tyberos specifically to be normal height.

Then someone made fan art where he was massive and looming over a mantis warrior

The author of the carcharadon books liked the art so much he wrote the size into the books

[crystal forum]

40k fans are obsessed with height

lock them up

[plush mason]

tbf taller=leader has been a thing for humans for eons

the elite of society have historically been taller having better health and posture

its only really in recent centuries that stopped being the case

so imo all the leaders and powerful people of the imperium being taller than normal humans works as a nod to that more primative form of authority

[spare osprey]

Bigger's better!

[plush mason]

and as another example of how backwards the imperium is

[crystal forum]

you're making that up nameless

I have to say, the new Red Corsairs have me excited.

[cinder sphinx]

freud is considered more or less a quack in psychology these days.

[tough haven]

@storm jungle This is a long shot, but in your trove of tech priest art, do you have any where most of their augments are hidden subdermally? Kinda like certain augments from cyberpunk?

[storm jungle]

alas no

literally all my techpriest trove art is them with bionics lol

like EVERY single one

[tough haven]

I just really wanna do a character that’s like an infiltration specialist

Vanus assassin style

[cinder sphinx]

I dimly remember two instances in the novels with high ranking magi opting for clearly humanoid appearances. One is in the Priests of Mars, the other in the newest Carcharodons novel

[tough haven]

The character still has a few visible bionics, but none that would make you look at them sideways more than someone with a replacement or two

Now I gotta come up with an outfit that lets him look like a basic hiver or a standard investigator, but can show off his Mechanicus allegiance if he needs authority

Kinda like a coat with a alterable appearance

Like a shitty looking synth leather coat that can shift into a more classical admech robes at will

Is that too far fetched?

[tough haven]

Bionics are dope as fuck but I thought a hidden in plain sight tech priest is a unique concept

[storm jungle]

Its in some novels.

[plush mason]

they have a device that can make a power armored space marine invisible, a coat that changes into a red robe is nothing

[storm jungle]

its not as visually interesting for artwork

[arctic talon]

Yeah

Most people want the chaotic clusterfuck

Oh also

Arkhan land is a good example

[tough haven]

I could imagine a artwork of a bunch of horrifying chaotic clusterfuck springing from a unassuming looking person

[arctic talon]

He has a ton of augments

[storm jungle]

Yeah but again gothic ugly bionics is usually more the thing

[arctic talon]

They’re all under the skin

[tough haven]

Well it’s still gothic and ugly, just when opened up

[plush mason]

actually isnt it canon the alpha legion have something that lets them change their armor into that of another space marine legion/chapter?

[arctic talon]

One specific warband and it’s extremely rare

They don’t all have it

[plush mason]

but it does exist

[tough haven]

I was inspired by one of your artworks where some of the augments looked more porcelain or smooth like on the exterior

[arctic talon]

It’s only the veterans and higher ranking ones

Yes

[tough haven]

Or maybe I hallucinated that

[arctic talon]

But it’s not like the way people paint it

[plush mason]

yeah like half the art i see of the alpha legion is them like half and half of that thing

[storm jungle]

Lmaooo yeah i only got that BECAUSE theres basically no techpriest artwork like that. I like getting unique with my admech OCs.

[tough haven]

Yeah I think that’s cool

[arctic talon]

Yeah that’s not how it works LOL

[tough haven]

I want the exterior of his augments to be smooth and sleek like that

[arctic talon]

That’s how camolene works

[tough haven]

Then open up into the classic nightmare creature

[arctic talon]

It’s like a hologram projected

Over the armor

And it goes away all at once

[plush mason]

lmao

[tough haven]

Mind if I get that art piece

[arctic talon]

You have to be around the right size

[storm jungle]

Which one

[arctic talon]

No turning a terminator into a tactical marine

lol

[tough haven]

The unique porcelain looking one

[arctic talon]

Porcelain skin is fun

[storm jungle]

I gotta find a good art so I can describe this to my group cause I’m shit at descriptions

i love that his face barely changes in this one

[tough haven]

Guess I will comb the noosphere for a similar enough looking one

[storm jungle]

Pinterest.

that always gives great refs

[arctic talon]

Brother I am cameleoline

Jokes aside the dude did the same thing for his cameleoline cloaks

And his AL stuff

So it’s so funny how it’s so widespread now for AL armor

armor camoflauges as other legions armor
make ours the only one with weird textures and shit

[storm jungle]

"ours"

[winged jacinth]

I... am alpharius?

[plush mason]

dont the salamanders also have scaled patterns on some of their armors?

[arctic talon]

Do you think she has an alternate augmentic hand

[arctic talon]

Not the same way

[storm jungle]

less scale patterns

[cinder sphinx]

there are some thirsty attempts at more delicate modifications. I am not sure that matches the vibe asked for

[storm jungle]

more just literal scaleskin of salamanders on their armor

[plush mason]

i see

[arctic talon]

Yeah sallies wear pelts

A lot

[storm jungle]

I love how they literally just 1:1 copied the blackstone fortress model

its really lazy imo

[near wasp]

I'm at my friend's house can somebody send the red corsairs releases so I can show him

[storm jungle]

im not the biggest fan of it

lmao

[plush mason]

i recently got the alpha for that

she is fun

also i didnt know surgeons in 40k could be field medics

[tough haven]

Pinterest has failed me

But this is practically what I want

just a little more slapped together and more 40k esque

like hidden but you can definitely tell some work has been done

[winter pine]

An inquisitor packing some archeotech Manticus Blades would be a fun bit of world building

Dunno if 40k cybernetics really fit the discrete look though

[plush mason]

so turns out there was/is an ordo of radicals that wanted/want to kill the emperor and the custodians hunted/hunt them so relentlessly they never even got a name

[winter pine]

I love the absolutely bonkers insane ordos like this lmao

[plush mason]

same

[winter pine]

Wonder if they'll ever hint which philosophy Grendyl subscribes to because there's no way he's not a radical

[cinder sphinx]

pretty sure this was already around all the way back with Ian Watson’s Inquisitor

[heady rivet]

There's like at least 4 different Ordos that are just "What if we just get SO heretical it loops around to loyalist?"

[crystal forum]

at what point is an inquisitor not just a chaos worshiper who hasn't been found out by his peers yet

like it's funny to think these people can even form ordos

how do they even find eachother?
"hey man i really want to kill the emperor"
"you too?"

https://tenor.com/view/predator-handshake-muscle-strong-man-gif-5783927

[fervent geode]

A lot of radicals just end up being chaos loons and nutjobs who cling on to a sense of loyalty to the emperor or imperium to keep sane

Like Quixos

But he's a bit special too, maybe more like deMarche

[arctic talon]

Some radicals are just normal loons

[fervent geode]

Oh yeah defo

Or some are just doing what they can do but with xenos and what

[crystal forum]

i mostly wanted to make the joke

[fervent geode]

Like Draxus and Czevak

[crystal forum]

but honestly how do they even form ordos

[fervent geode]

Most Ordos were formed during the big bad days when something happened and the need was considered to be there

Like the Ordo Malleus is technically the first Ordo formed when the inq founded after the heresy and there were no others then iirc

The Ordo Xenos being the 2nd formed after the shitshow that was the War of the Beast so things wouldn't get that bad

And the Ordo Hereticus being formed after Goge Vandire's Age of Apostasy where everything was ass and Galathamor literally seceeded so that all that nonsense would be less likely to happen again

And other minor ordos being formed when a similar need arises

Like the Ordo Sepulturum was formed after a very bad plague of unbelief iirc

[crystal forum]

did you guys see they're doing a fallout game show

this is going to be such slop

https://us.castitreach.com/ag/slus/fallout/welcome.html

why do they call it a computer game lmao

fallout shelter was a mobile game

and the main games are also on consoles

i feel like to maximize your chances of being picked you have to hype yourself up because they only ever take toxic people on these shows to increase drama

[young pecan]

"To ascend him, right?"
""
"...right?"

[opaque coyote]

I think some radicals are literally just a slightly different way of handling things

Like "I think we should at least study Xenos before murdering them"

And some are just

"Man y'know what this galaxy needs? MORE WAR. There just simply isn't enough of it!"

[fervent geode]

Yeah basically

Radicals are a much broader spectrum than puritans

[opaque coyote]

And it says a lot about the Imperium that somebody considering a more pragmatic and less dogmatic approach

Will be lumped with the guy that thinks that eating daemons is totally viable

[fervent geode]

I mean it depends imo, some puritans are quite reasonable, and some are also absolutely bonkers

Think between Xenos Eisenhorn and Karamazov

[opaque coyote]

Some Puritans are just

"Please guys. Stop trying to summon daemons. Just fucking kill them."

And then some others want you to follow to the letter

If not?

[fervent geode]

Its basically where your boundaries are set that defines the difference

[opaque coyote]

Torture

[fervent geode]

Yeap

[opaque coyote]

It says a lot about Karamazov that he got kicked out of the inquisition

[crisp heath]

https://youtu.be/E_snbg_Cdnk?si=hhrpUsAG0ypLBl-y yes

[opaque coyote]

For being too uncaring about casualties

Tbf his solution wasn't the worst. Especially against nids

Probably the reason why he's still alive

[fervent geode]

Was he? He's been criticised by the Inquisition and spurned by the ecclesiarchy but i don't recall him getting excommunicated

[opaque coyote]

No wait thinking of a different guy I think

[fervent geode]

Basically his massacres ate effective when the dissent is so great that they really are going to fight a big war otherwise

[opaque coyote]

Kryptman

[fervent geode]

If not its insane overkill usually

[opaque coyote]

Not Karamazov

[fervent geode]

I mean Kryptmann is effective against nids but also bonkets

[opaque coyote]

"As a result, Kryptman was declared a traitor, a fool and a radical, and a Carta Extremis was issued for him, stripping Kryptman of his title and condemning him to death, should he be apprehended"

[fervent geode]

He escalated the Octarius war massively

[fervent geode]

This was because he was doing scorched earth

[opaque coyote]

Yeah, it says a lot when your act is compared to the Horus Heresy in terms of casualties

[fervent geode]

His fucking "galactic cordon" was just destroying any world in Leviathan's path

[opaque coyote]

Tbf he at least waited for the Tyranids to invade it

Before bombing them

...

Still not good though

For obvious reasons

[fervent geode]

They land, exterminatus, they lose a lot of bioforms, everyone dies

[opaque coyote]

I can imagine the Hive Mind POV during that entire debacle.

"Let me fucking get biomass. Just let me."

planet they committed to an invasion gets exterminatus'd

[fervent geode]

More like uh

HUNGER

imo

[opaque coyote]

"YOU MOTHER FUCKERS I'M STARVING! JUST LET ME EAT YOU."

[opaque coyote]

Considering the Hive Mind canonically feels some type of anger

I like to imagine them as basically just

Somebody playing an RTS

And raging at it

[fervent geode]

Just a deep hatred and malice according to devastation of baal iirc

So yeah

[fervent geode]

Basically ts

Telepathic footage of the Hive Mind sent by an astropath before their death:

[opaque coyote]

I mean if the Chaos Gods are playing a Great Game

Who's to say the Hive Mind isn't playing their own?

"Sir, a new Hive Mind tendril has entered the galaxy."

"Prepare. We shall let the disgusting Xenos pay for every inch of territory."

Meanwhile what the new tendril is seeing:

"Welcome to the Dawn of War tutorial. By listening to me and reading the text that appears in this message box, you will learn how to play a skirmish game.

[plush mason]

lmao

i can fucking hear that text omg

[crisp heath]

how small can an ork be and how tall
could there be an ork the size of a child and one the size of a dreadnought

[crystal forum]

per beast lore, there were orks the size of titans

but you can take that as you wish

beast lore is pretty bullshit

war for armageddon is where you get the actually sorta grounded ork lore

if you can call anything ork related grounded

[crisp heath]

True

I'm doing a fun dnd campaign with my friends about 40k and was seeing what i can do with em orks

[plush mason]

slaughter

[opaque coyote]

...

Worst part is that I can actually believe it but I don't want to

That just sounds too ridiculous even for 40k.

also if Orks can be as big as Titans

Then why the fuck do they make titans of their own

I know, I know "ooo they're diminished"

But they can't have titan sized machines pre-programmed into them if they already fulfill that role themselves

Fuck the Beast was weird as shit

The only part I liked is the high lords basically getting ragebaited by an Ork speaking perfect High Gothic

[crystal forum]

ye it doesn't make sense but beast lore is meant to be scaled with primarchs so i guess everything has to be turbo stupid

it's not like armageddon where it's guard and some space marines vs orks

it's ALL space marines vs beast

[opaque coyote]

I swear whoever wrote that boom was 100% on something

[crystal forum]

like the entirety of the imperial fists got wiped out

THE ENTIRE CHAPTER

[opaque coyote]

And if so, I want to know what they smoked

[crystal forum]

and that's just a footnote in their history

[opaque coyote]

Or injected, snorted, etc

[crystal forum]

"oh yeah our entire fucking chapter died that one time, nothing big"

[opaque coyote]

This is why the Lamenters should just cope harder

"The Imperial Fists suffered their entire chapter being wiped out and they're fine!"

Honestly the beast should've been decanonized

Unfortunately it isn't

Luckily it barely fucking matters

[crystal forum]

writers need to know that 40k is already ridiculous enough

they dont need to turn it up to 11

[opaque coyote]

Problem is how boring the book is somehow

You'd think with all of this over the top shit it'd at least be interesting

[crystal forum]

also sinderman is involved for some reason

probably because some author wanted to be the one who kills him

he's like 10k years old

[cinder pivot]

For the Armageddon Steel Legion, is the gas mask a must have equipment for the uniform or something overly used in modeling and artwork?

[crystal forum]

armageddon is an industrial wasteland so it's required

Ah I see, ty

[crystal forum]

steel legion is known for fighting in toxic places

[opaque coyote]

Normal Guardsmen regime: "OH GOD WHY IS THERE ACID EVERYWHERE??"

[crystal forum]

and also gas masks look cool so they're used a lot in guard uniforms

[opaque coyote]

Steel Legion and Kriegers: "It's just like home! Just needs a bit of toxic goop there."

[arctic talon]

Mandatory while they're on Armageddon and not in the jungle areas

planet is extremely polluted

off planet they can go without them

[crystal forum]

they usually wear it tho

[arctic talon]

but its part of their unfirom

[opaque coyote]

Why would they get sent to jungle are

Oh right planets like Catachan

[arctic talon]

so very little reason not to

[arctic talon]

no like Armageddon has jungles

thats why Armageddon firesweep squads exist

[crystal forum]

like some moebian regiments wear gas masks

for no real reason other than tradition

and it makes sense really when you consider how polluted hive cities are

[arctic talon]

the armageddon ork hunters are the exception

to the like gas mask always on thing

for armageddon regiments

[crystal forum]

those guys fight in the jungles tho right

[arctic talon]

yeah

[crystal forum]

man i love how armageddon has actual biomes

a rare sight

there's also the ash wastes

and a giant ocean

where you get to see one of the only ork naval forces

[opaque coyote]

A planet actually having variation in it's landscape?

No way!

[arctic talon]

a chunk of 40k plants have biomes

tbh

[crystal forum]

name some

that arent just different hive city with wasteland between

[jade holly]

[celest dome]

Those are inside Hives

Wouldn't count in this convo

[wary fulcrum]

There’s also different types of wastes, the equatorial wastes are different to the Spoil for example, which is just a massive rubbish pile rather than a hive, then secundus, the secundan exclusion zone and the dustwall around it are different again, even from each other

All wastelands, but different flavour of wastelands

[languid meadow]

I've had custodian wardens bookmarked for years and now I think I'm just gonna get the new ones instead lol

[surreal nest]

You are telling me they think even the most vehemently incel brained custodes player wouldn't buy the new kit because theres a woman head? No shot

[languid meadow]

I love custodes because they're so greedy (able to play 30k and 40k with the same army

[storm jungle]

The custodes players at large also like do not give a single shit about this stuff lmao

[surreal nest]

They are too busy playing the game or painting

Once I realized the simple fact that the real joyful fans are the ones actually too busy to bitch constantly it made my life sunshine and rainbows

"We complain because we want to make it better! Its passion!"

• "I hate women characters"

This hobby is sure to improve now

[languid meadow]

The only complaint I've seen from like actual custodes players is the poses and the faces

[crisp heath]

ill be reading it later today :)

[languid meadow]

Because GW can't make faces

[crisp heath]

chuds are dumb so its just coping

[rocky gale]

They actually make really good faces, they just struggle to paint them

[languid meadow]

Harsh painting style

[crisp heath]

You dont understand, if you go woke you go broke!!!!!
look at concord!!!!!
(this is their entire argument and they canno provide any other example)

[languid meadow]

But yeah the poses are a consistent criticism I've seen

Which is fair imo

[wary fulcrum]

One of my favourite things to do lately is find out the total number of members in a group, look at how many people are commenting, and then ask if those who are raging about Femstodes think they’re in the majority

Sends them wild

[rocky gale]

When Concord was also just an awful game, it released as a £50 game in a free to play market, while having less content than it's free to play competitors

[languid meadow]

Oh yeah and the guardian Spears looking a bit weird

They don't have the old triggers

They don't have any triggers at all

Your greed sickens me

[vagrant fox]

dorkels never

[languid meadow]

I'm actually kind of excited to see how the DA play in comparison to the ravens in DoW4

Bikes...

[limpid granite]

it is kinda funny

dark angels barge into dawn of war with most likely their chapter master alongside the lion

whilst blood ravens dont get their chapter master

[valid needle]

I don’t think so

I didn’t see any grand masters with the lion so I doubt the supreme grand master is there

[valid needle]

Gimme warhammer with extra dark angels

And hold the xeno minis

[languid meadow]

Warhammer with nothin?

[valid needle]

With nothin

[storm jungle]

NEVER let space marine fans cook

[languid meadow]

Got me thinking about total war and I do think sadly that every founding legion/popular chapter will get their own faction

[valid needle]

If only I could secure a small loan of 1747 trillion dollars I could buy GW and delete every faction and mini ever and only produce Dark Angels, no generic marines nothin.

[limpid granite]

why sadly?

also

[languid meadow]

Because it's gonna be so bloated

[limpid granite]

generic marines will be added via the painting menu

the only real effort is geneseed mutations like the blood angels and salamanders

[storm jungle]

We need actual faction diversity, not fucking sloptartes-fest

[limpid granite]

and their chapter master etc etc

[languid meadow]

I think every founding legion will prob be added and the only non one will be templar's

[storm jungle]

Yeah that.

[languid meadow]

Since they can be a horde faction

[storm jungle]

or just extra DLC

[languid meadow]

Like beastmen

[limpid granite]

probs a few successors too if theyre popular enough

[languid meadow]

The only one that really does that is templar's

[limpid granite]

minotaurs black dragons black templars

[languid meadow]

They're the only one that gets consistent codexes and shit

[valid needle]

Templars are in the first founding section of our main codex btw

For you non SM fans

[storm jungle]

Sloptaurs, Black Slopragons, Black Sloplars*

[valid needle]

That’s how much GW are pushing them

[wary fulcrum]

Might get slopcaradons

Everyone’s favourite meme chapter

[valid needle]

There’s not one other successor who’s in the first founding section, it’s just BT.

[limpid granite]

black templars are 100% big enough to get their own dedicated subfaction within the space marines for ttw40k

[languid meadow]

yeah that's why I think they'll be like the only non founding legion to be added until years down the line

since they can play differently from others already by the base of being a horde faction

[limpid granite]

more of a melee centric faction than ranged marines

[languid meadow]

that's already a unique way to play compared to literally every other major chapter

[valid needle]

Wdym

[languid meadow]

How do I explain this

[limpid granite]

black templars use alot of swords

[languid meadow]

beastmen in total war dont really have settlements

[limpid granite]

big scary

[languid meadow]

their settlements are in their armies

with the black templars being primarily fleet based they can do the same thing they do for beastmen

a "horde faction" in the terms of total war

[limpid granite]

yknow that actualy sounds like a good idea

and it gives black templar players a massive incentive to protect their orbital fleets or risk losing a settlement or buildings

[languid meadow]

outside of templars being really popular and being pushed by GW this is one of the main reasons I think they'll be in the game as their own faction

[celest dome]

Not being able to have settlements but instead build up mobile camps that enable them to do what they normally do in settlements

[limpid granite]

i wonder

will they add a rogue trader faction within the game

[languid meadow]

prob not

maybe a hero

like unique ship

[limpid granite]

oh yeah heroes and legendary lords

[celest dome]

40k imo should have Tyranids, Black Templar, Charcharodon, the Corsairs, Craft world Eldars... as horde

[storm jungle]

Rogue Traders arent an army on tabletop

[limpid granite]

we have to think about that

[storm jungle]

it would be a regiment of renown

[celest dome]

Rogue Trader as General or hero could work too

[limpid granite]

theyll obviously have cadia as the launch astra militarum

but what about others

[languid meadow]

Craftworlders being a horde faction would be awesome compared to how high elfs are in WH3

[limpid granite]

like mordian or maccabian or catachan etc

[celest dome]

Cadian, Ultramarine

[storm jungle]

Also having the craftworld just be your "capital"

and just be able to do LOTS of upgrades to it

[languid meadow]

Harkon

he has something like that

[storm jungle]

[languid meadow]

his main settlement is his ship that you build up

[limpid granite]

https://tenor.com/view/gograndpa-abelard-warhammer-40k-rogue-trader-gif-10197236637227656755

id like to meet the person who did that!

[storm jungle]

Monkey

[celest dome]

Having a much grander horde camp would be so awesome, maybe like the Black Arks instead of pure horde

[limpid granite]

also we just got new corsairs so an aeldari corsair subfaction might also be a thing like black templars

have them be fleet based instead of a craftworld

[storm jungle]

craftworlds are also just massive fleets

they just have a big ass capital ship

lol

[limpid granite]

you know what i mean little chudling

[storm jungle]

why are you talking to yourself

🤨

[languid meadow]

the only imperium factions I think wont get full on stuff are
Inquisition (at most deathwatch or grey knights)
Knights (heros or a couple of units for all imperium armies)
custodes (prob wont be added at all or just a single hero)

[limpid granite]

maybe a game tie in for ttw40k too

like the moebian guard or a hero for the astra militarum thats a von valencius

[limpid granite]

the inquisition is so massive no way they arent getting the full treatement

[storm jungle]

Custodes will 100% get added

just not anytime soon lol

[languid meadow]

I don't think as a full faction is my point

[storm jungle]

deffo full faction

they got tons of units

[limpid granite]

maybe theyll make an echlesiarchy faction too or just have sisters of battle alongside minor units like preachers arco flaggelents etc

[storm jungle]

id imagine it will be like Talons of the Emperor with SoS mixed in there

[celest dome]

Sister will most likely be their own race

[limpid granite]

it would be really funny to have argenta as a hero unit for the sisters

or maybe even a legendary lord

[queen laurel]

will be elite but expensive as shit

[limpid granite]

maybe theyre adding adeptus arbites too?

but thats a fat maybe

[languid meadow]

the thing is agents are really just a hodgepodge of random shit then deathwatch or characters

[celest dome]

Maybe as part of an Inquisition race

But not on their own

maybe they could do killteams as units?

cause we know units arent individual characters i believe

[languid meadow]

maybe we still need to see more

which I think we'll prob see more updated gameplay (not from last may) at skulls

along with more WH3 news

since Nagash comes out this summer

[limpid granite]

oh 100%

but its fun to speculate early

i just know volound is seething so hard over ttw40k

[languid meadow]

Total war content creators besides a few are so annoying

but sometimes I can't blame them since historical was kind of left to rot in that regard

but other than that shuttttt up

[limpid granite]

theyre getting medieval 4 so it evens out

but its very natural for CA to go for the moby dick 40k

it will generate absurd amounts of profit for them

[celest dome]

Historical TW were dying

[limpid granite]

i know they pulled the plug on three kingdoms early

but yeah historical TTW werent that popular

[languid meadow]

I mean Rome was massive

Shogun 2 and FOTS were also pretty big

yeah they aren't as big as warhammer of course

but like they weren't unpopular

[limpid granite]

i can understand people being upset about no new historical total wars

but well see how medieval 4 will shape to be

[storm jungle]

I need more warhammer

never make a historical title again

let the fans rot

[limpid granite]

10 more space marine chapters for ttw40k

[languid meadow]

happy we're getting med4 but I did want empire over it ngl

[celest dome]

I need other Fantasy Total War tbh.
And AoS Total War in a couple of years

when GW finally decides to fully flesh out the factions more

[limpid granite]

no joke id sooner see vermintide age of sigmar than total war age of sigmar

[storm jungle]

Age of Sigmar is good

stop bitching
