is this like a game or something
old world blues is a mod for hoi4
oh
i was thinking of the new vegas dlc and i was like what the fuck are these people talking about with Minnesota
also reduces the amount of bullshit
since smaller numbers of everything
my only gripe with OWB is it still has way too many factions
the classic fanfic issue
Every day I miss her a bit more
Is that an ai generated image of charadons on Terra with a vtuber
I mean she has a new account
I know, just the old persona
Fair
if thats ai im cooked
Top 10 most ai ever
I remember an artist who constantly did art of her with space sharks
Idk if thats their art or maybe ai over their art
how can you tell
Seems to be AI with editing to make it less slop
Still looks weird
The marines are awkwardly posing
Theres a gate in front of one of the marines separating them from the other 2
None of the perspectives make sense, the walkways are stupid and end and have bars appear an disappear, the building on the side goes down like it’s a falling bridge, the shark vtuber has an iron halo? The power pack she is on is extended and looks blobby, the lighting makes zero sense
it looks like a bad 3d render
Hands are too clear
They are primaris heads on first born bodies too
when it's a mix between actual art and generation i cant tell shit at all
The right most space amines helmet is melting into it self
Look at perspectives, how the marines are facing each other
Theres a guard-rail in front of the marine in the middle
They're also not facing each other properly
Wrong armor mix
The chairs in the background
It's AI over an already existing art i think
No problem, I have literal OCD 
Or at least trained with someones work
Also the ai piece has no art style, that’s a big give away
Checking that Twitter
How tf is it so awkward
It looks AI
😭
I don’t see it on therr
On that Twitter

ye
oh wow popular enough that they got an AI overview lol Anonamos_701 is a popular digital artist known for creating humorous and often "chibi" (cute, simplified style) fan art within the grimdark universe of Warhammer 40,000, frequently shared on platforms like Reddit's r/ImaginaryWarhammer, featuring space marines, orks, and other factions in amusing situations, sometimes with crossover elements like Hololive characters. They're recognized for high-quality depictions with funny twists, like a chaptermaster taking a break for others to get kills or unexpected character interactions, making serious lore accessible and lighthearted.
it’s… not on her twitter
Dont trust ai after they said a guy who did cyberpunk 3d renders AI artist
I mean the artstyle and character is recognizable lol https://fxtwitter.com/Anonamos_701/status/1649457981128310784
It doenst even may her art style
one can assume they just dont know how to draw proportions well
Hang on I’m gonna ask
yeah
Yeha I think it is being framed as her art
look I defend anyone who's art is being framed as AI and I dont believe they use AI lol
It’s not posted on her account at all
Yeah I don’t think she made it, I think someone is saying she drew it
damn
do you have a source for this 💀
I dont believe you
i think it's trained on their art
that art piece is not in her Twitter
Me too
I mean look at this artstyle and tell me with a str8 face this is not the same artist
and artist dont necessarily post all their work on the same platform
found on their pixiv
you know what i think it is
i think it's 3d models traced over which is why it looks oddly framed
OHHHHH YEAH I JSUT NOTICED HTAT
wait
why is the helemt so wrid, why is the lighting different
is that fucking paris
Y'all remember when you didn't have to heavily scrutinize every single thing you saw online because it might be AI?
oh i see it
I miss those days
huh
it's a photo taken from a cathedral roof
i geyss they drew the lighting weird
yeah one of the things that confused me was the titans seemed perfect
usually ai fucks those up
I get it tho, AI art on the rise and everyone kinda just scrutinize everything now 💀
the low quality of the reddit post made it hard to tell details
OH
OHHH OKAY I SEEI T NOW
THEY TOOK A FIREEXIT ASSEST
AND PASTED IT NEXT TO EACH OTHER
CREATING THE STRANGE BARS
lmao
this is just an odd piece of art all around. now wonder the art style was hard to tell
3d models put over a real photo then drawn over
...is that anor londo?
I give a pass when artists do this because drawing big objects like cityscapes or just items necessarily when you dont really specialize in environment drawings is a chore
i deleted my post asking her if she drew it lol
New night lord kill team has a freak raptor
nah tahts a good test
i think tracing is fine if it involved your own art you know? if you mix 3d and 2d together that's awesome
your own 3d models drawn over
though i'll be honest the 3d models arent placed really well lol
the space marines arent even posed at all
just A posing
you dont generally care about the less important details of an art that youre gonna post especially when everyones only gonna see it not even at fullscreen
we only notice these things because we scrutinize the piece too much xd
i don't think that's true at all, knowing all the artists i've talked to
thats a cathedral they look like that
I mean you wont give the less focused area of a piece as much detail
you didnt run past the black knights at Anor Londo and it shows!
yeah they used real photos
so giving the illusion of detail is fine
mixed media threw me off
hah yeah that sounds simple but trust me it's an advanced skill to learn where to put effort
they have much better work yeah
I get what theyre going for with it, the colors barring the anime girl, are more muted
some of the highlights are weird but the average viewer wont notice this at all considering everything else is good
ssorry for teh confusion, i should have examed why the artist made the deicisons in the piece rather than assume they ddnt make the decisions
i like how they turned a normal city picture into a hive city
i have not seen that done before
i dont get vtubers either
they're just streamers
but like
anime character lol
rigged to a motion capture suit
even streamers are odd to me like who watches that live regularly
thats what i mean they really are just streamers but the fans are legitimately weird people

thats all streamers
lol
if you actively watch livestreams you are a fucking weirdo
mostly normal
it's like i'm having a discussion with somebody but it's completely one sided
knew a vtuber drama bout one who's whole schtick is being a goonbait that was also posting edgy and racist shit like kill n words
only to be revealed she's actually Pakistani
you cant make this shit up bro 💀
I know of the vtuber that is infamous for being a groomer and is also extremely anti woke
also has a crazy lisp
Pakistani != black
i like when people act like there's right wing counterparts to hasan as if the cockroach eating asmongold is a respectable political commentator
why did they have him pose in front of a 40k game?
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War is, after all, a series known for its brutal kill animations and intense battlefield atmosphere. We got a chance to chat with Thomas Derksen, animation director on Dawn of War 4, about how King Art Games is taking the animations for the characters in this universe that we love to the next level.
its kinda funny
is rts a dead genre
they set up a whole table of terrain and just sat him in somebody's warhammer room
i feel like there's way less rts games than there used to be
Sorta yeah
Its not dead
but its not popular anymore
if that makes sense
Shooters/sports games are the dominant genre nowadays
only feels dead because it used to be THE game genre
i wonder why fps took over
so anything less than every other game being RTS feels dead
easier to get into
more fun
and its more dopamine faster
RTS's are objectively harder from a baseline
then an FPS
I used to, I just cant anymore.
which isn't a bad or good thing
RTS's just kind of require a lot of shit going on at once
you'd think from a graphics standpoint rts's are more impressive with better tech
I've only ever watched Jerma's Dollhouse stream live, but that was awesome
I remember staying awake for 24 hours...to watch a val streamers 24 hour stream
Im already cooked years ago bro
bruh what
well that's because it's actual art
it's just being streamed
I am choosing to act like you didn't say this and I will continue every interaction without his knowledge
like there's literally nothing wrong
jerma is crippled at 32
if all you like is FPS's and like FIFA
jerma is crippled at 40
thats always the problems with genres they are so encompassing
Genre big
but lets be real here
Darktide has like
half the appeal of COD or battlefield
at best
which is fine, bcs they know what their audiance is
yeah just for clarity sake I'd rather call Darktide a horde shooter
cut out the middleman
i dont even really consider cod to be the baseline FPS to compare
society does
it is the most popular FPS nowadays
so it is the baseline FPS
Wolfenstien and Doom are what popularized it
despite what chronically online perpetually upset turbo virgins online think COD and starwars are still blooming icons of their industry
but I'm sure there was some jank ass FPS game back in the day
yeah COD will never die lol
i'd play cod if i could afford it
CoD's storytelling is the issue, since its campaigns cant even be somethings thats resolved in just 1 campagin anymore
the devs have to take into account warzone and seasons yada yada
cod is for the multiplayer
There's nothing wrong with liking those games, but it becomes a problem when people who exclusively play those ones start acting all high and mighty about it
looking at the top 10 or so games on the PS5 is like this
so yeah
this is a pretty good like
litmus test lol
I like the story that they tried to tell in late 2010s early 2020s releases
of what the average gamer enjoys in the western world
bcs the PS5 is the most popular "big" console
yeah the xbox blows
ps5 is so goated
gta 5 was great but i really dont get the cult behind it
its just a game i played and i was like wow what a great story
Literally no difference between the consoles other than name and outer design lol
then i went to bed and woke up and played minecraft or some shit
Online
it's a good game i just got bored of it after like 5 years lol
several
thats where the money sunk
xbox controllers suck
Xbox controllers are way worse then PS ones
ps5 controllers have better haptic feedback and they dont explode
plus the games
i wanted to get battlefield 6 but meh honestly
they're just more comfortable
Cavemen arguing over which of their completely identical rocks is better smh
i would be sad too if i never played ghost of yotei
nah whoever designed diagonal joysticks gotta die
idk why people even play gta online it's genuinely just not good
there isn't even a hint of balance
I think the RP scene also plays a part
like the PS5 one just feels better in my hands
its smaller and more comfortable
lol
ps5 is just peak
I've used both and don't have any issues with either
the haptic feedback gets me growling
I like the offset stick setup but I also play on a dinky 3rd party switch pro controller if I need one
my experience with the PS5 is using the controller lol
people RP'ing being drug dealers will literally always exist i guess
me when I walk on cement in my game and my controller mimicks the feeling
soyjaking at my screen
i have my sister's ps5 next to me
or people sitting on they computer, deadass logged in to FiveM and RP...manual labor
Console wars were always stupid. Mfs just falling for the corporate marketing tactics smh
also the free games you get with ps plus are way better than xbox's free games
it got drowned in fire sprinkler water
which is kinda sad to see lol
its not console wars, the new xbox is just genuinely bad design
and microsoft keeps making terrible decisions
Xbox One and PS4 were both good products
especially with gamepass
tbh
why tf do consoles still come with disc drives
BAD OPINION
disc drives r fire
Also the PS5 sold super shit in Japan same with the Xbox one
bcs they cost
a ton(
my 2017 PC doesnt have a fucking disc reader why does the PS5 have one
They cost way too much for the average consumer now lol
physical media is cool i love buying a video game case from a store and driving home with it
Discs are terrible
kind of funny how the PS5 is selling so badly in its country of origin
I can smell you through the screen right now alter course
If you want physical media just get flash cards
thats so weird
you'd just look like a pervert showing people your collection of flash cards
They aren't succeptible to touching the bottom a little too much and now it just doesn't work
imagine opening up a drawer when company comes over and a gallon of flash drives spill out of it
corpo mindset
Why not
Or having a drive that occupies a solid 8 cubic inches instead of 1
it costs money
yes
They literally are though
All other modern physical storage media is better
You save money on pre owned games and physical discounts
yeah but since when did we decide dated art wasnt worth keeping
also disc readers take so much space
physical media is an art
they're huge
as if these consoles are backwards compatible
Weyland-Yutani....
well errrrr
vinyl are still popular bragging rights items yes
also since when have you bought a game on a cd that isn't just a link to download it
ummm last year
I’d rather be able to go out and pick up a pre owned game for 20 quid vs buying a digital version for full 59.99 price
artists sometimes offer vinyl for their albums
games dont fit on cd's anymore
I mean
that was literally just fallout 76 that was a link for the game
I mean, I have rdr2 on disk lol, so
rdr2 is 2 discs to be fair
And it came with a physical copy of the in game map which is cool af
did you not have to download the game
you download disc data too
nah its on 2 seperate disks lol
You do download it
Yeah its a big game lol so two disks
What the Hell did you do to your pfp 
Not the Freddy Fatbear
bruh so the disc is entirely useless
Feddy fatbear
im freddy chud bear and im in yo fridge
Ok so a dvd can hold like 8.5 gigs on one side
Freddy fatass
DAMN
From Let’s Eat to I can’t eat another bite
if you want to play old games just dont get a new console like
But have you considered that they are cheaper to buy and look cool in collections?
They do
I still got the glory that is the PS2 in my house somewhere
Part of the reason why I like disks is because I like looking at them and the cases
We even got a PS2 disc cleaner at one point so we could keep playing our favorite games
tell me my lord of the rings the two towers video game on the ps2 cover isnt hard
witerally art
that isn't a fucking ps5
im talking about why new consoles shouldn't have a disc reader
Disks got that nostalgic feel too
It’s a giant router
tell me my ghost of tsushima ps5 game case isnt hard
ps2 can be considered retro now 
Nah I sat on it and it shattered it was pretty solid
not even nostalgic cool
floppy discs are cool
discs look like cheap garbage
which they are
Idk maybe
Discs as actual storage media are terrible
If you just want to collect stuff I cannot stop you so feel free
Ofc Freddy Fatass broke something by sitting on it

how do you feel about nintendo switch cartridges
when go to sit I always leap
gimmick meant to make you spend money for nostalgia points
The whole house knows when I am to take a seat
original NES cartridges meanwhile
Bro goes in with momentum
but they are cheaper than digital
nintendo isnt setting their prices third party
getting scammed with the "on discount" trick
Coming from the guy who thinks the darktide soundtrack is bad btw 🥀
the normal price is crazy so the discount seems reasonable
it's not bad it's just meh
Insanity
imagine if you dont have a disc reader on your ps5 and you can only buy full priced 70 dollar games and you can never just use a preowned copy or borrow a game disc
get better tastes in electronic
this is corpo mindset
The real asshole move is when you buy a physical case for a game and there’s no disc in it
Like the fuck bro
usb disk drive
you straight up cant do that though since like the ps4
awha
false
do u need to see my preowned callisto protocol from gamestop
yes i bought that terrible game
GET AN EXTERNAL DISK DRIVE
I still gotta play ds
the melee combat looked exciting but it was so boring
(Dead space)
do you think the average person is going to install an external disc drive instead of just buying a 20 dollar game from gamestop
Oh hey that game I got free
you should refund it
do you think this unlocked something in Ada
The average person isn't buying secondhand
I remember playing Scribblenauts on my Wii U, it was DC licensed with dc stuff in it
I think it was already unlocked
amazon
also how old are you who even uses gamestop
Yeah what wolf said lol
why not it's right next to me
i wanted a preowned game and they had a sale
I love that epic gives out free shit to justify their game launcher
i still refuse to get epic
I love free stuff
I've got at least 1000$ free shit
and some really good finds
I don’t own a PC so I have no temptation to get Epic 
nothing is free
They already own my data
And with the Ram prices these days I don’t think I can get a PC anyways
I don’t really care
I never downloaded the epic launcher
Pre builds are cheaper then building your own rn I’m deadass
you dont even need epic for them to have ur information they probably got it when you played a video game that had epic crossplay as an option
Yeah but are some pre builds ass?
I’m talking about ones that are decent
Or good
Like I’m not joking
It’s so dumb
lol
remember when metro exodus decided to just be epic only like 1 week before launch
i remember
i waited
a year
i remember too then i was like "huh, i could just make an account"
then it was a great game
it was worth the wait
metro fans deserve only the worst
Wait yeah what about people who preordered not on Epic?
Was that just a fuck em moment?
Good to know
iirc they got the game but nobody else
but there were issues
On a completely separate note I think we should set fire to AI data centers
Meanwhile I remember Sony trying to make PC players make PS accounts just to play a PS game on PC
that was helldivers
bless up
That and you needed internet to play GoW tmk but that part idk too much on
the helldivers incident made people believe arrowhead isnt a shitty company
which it is
a shitty company
im just saying but I didnt hear people whinging when microsoft required an xbox account for some of their games
On PC? Because Xbox has GamePass PC
Their games on steam
Some require an xbox account
And Rumor has it the next console is gonna have Steam integration
the helldivers thing is just proof that company executives should be punished with capital punishment when they mess up their job
i love polish people
that will keep them in check
I mean the Rog Ally has it
And it’s Xbox licensed
Not far fetched
They have discord now on playstation and xbox
they can do it
Imagine being able to truly play TF2 on Xbox
ermmmm
And not just from The Orange Box
oh ok good
i cant wait to get the valve console just so i can brag about having the steam console
thought i was gonna have to tear you to shreds
Bro I no lifed TF2 Orange Box back in the day
same
i was thinking of getting frame but i think VR is just not for me
i used to make a ton of alt accounts to play the free 30 minute demo for CSGO on xbox one
i dont use my quest 3 much
try the batman vr game u will change your mind
Wonder what the price is gona be
such goated sauce
over 1K for sure
I remember playing the Subnautica early access
Back when it wasn’t finished or fully released
more than you hope
less than you expect
And I found the big area the Emperor was going to be placed
the valve index was and still is an outrageously priced piece of hardware. It launched at 1K flat when that game was unheard of. Obviously now Facebook has like 3K dollar ones
aint no way frame will be 1k
It will be
that would be financial suicide for valve
And they’ll still come out on top

Final DLC character of the Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising season doesn’t bother me 💀
Shame bcs I bought the pass and none of them interest me lol. Fighting game moment ig Ty arcsys
isnt the steam deck like 600
At least they’re all hot
who is it?
frame isn't a top of the line headset
that title is outdated
it's average guy level
the problem is the headset released at 1K when the average VR headset price was like fcking 400-500 bucks
Ilsa
double the price
it's not a bigscreen lol
gsc when they roll a 1 on blasting charges on god
but just think too the steam deck is almost 600 bucks and that's a big up from other competing handhelds
LMFAOO
i really think valve is gonna shoot for the stars on that pricetag
steam deck is extremely outdated bruv
dont buy that shit
quest 3s is 300
wait
and that's like the reference point
is the steam frame not the console
If you’ve played Blazblue before it looks like Ilsa plays like Noel and has a very similar kit. Just slower bcs Granblue isn’t on meth
frame is the headset
That’s the steam deck
oh
For the handheld
i thought we were talking about their upcoming family console
yeah the frame shouldnt be too bad
i fucking hate meta
well i love VR I am a VR fanatic and i needed a new headset but I dont like wearing my headset with my eyebrow piercing
so i just stopped using my VR entirely after I got it done
used it a lot prior
i guess
the software is fucking garbage
same
i only wanted it because i cant afford a thousand dollar index
so if the frame was available a year ago i would have gotten it no second thought
wasnt a bad price and i do really like batman vr
tbh i would probably buy the quest 3 just for batman and asgards wrath 2 so nvm
no regrets
i dont like that it has physical trackers
thats old news
quest 3's senor technology is genuinely pretty awesome
and the whole phase through mode is realllllly cool. The battery sucks buttcheeks though
quest 3 is just the best normal consumer VR rn
agreed
which is sad because i hate it
same
my oculus was much better in that regards
but oh my god my oculus was a fucking CV1
i might sell my quest 3 to get the frame
i got stick drift and the fucking company doesnt exist anymore so i couldnt get new controllers
great call
frame looks genuinely amazing
very excited to see more about it
it just looks like a better quest 3
other than some shit like no color for pasthrough
which idk why people care about
i guess some people really like mixed reality
Pass through is for checking what reality I'm after turning around 4 times
The walking dead vr game looks fun. Been wanting to play it for a good while
I do not need color
such a good game!!!
unironically too scary for me
finally i wont have to have every light on in the house to play games
ruining my immersion
VR gives me a horrible headache lol
I wear night time contacts so yeah
you should check out Into The Radius
its really cool
Oh yeah I've seen that one before, looks really cool
That sounds like an even worse idea
i got prescription lenses
Then me doing VR normally
Also the Walking Dead devs made a new game too but i heard its eh
Rites of Wrath DLC
Our new DLC (which was crafted thanks to a lot of fan feedback) lets players experience the Forsaken Lands like never before. We added two new modes, free to all players. Now you can play Skydance’s Behemoth’s incredible moments in bite-sized fashion.…
$39.99
948
i really want it anyways
i think everybody needs to experience Batman Arkham Shadow because holy fuck
i really dont understand the point of eye tracking
I hope they release a kit for it at least
thank vr chatters for that
vr chatters r crazy people but they do cool shit
Does mage arena have vr?
vr chat was all i played when i first got my headset my model was a lego battle droid
was fun
it's just odd to me
like i could just join a discord call
why do i need to get up to talk to people
How would you rate vr chat sex on a scale of 1 to 10
like i was at a world with fireworks and i was just chilling and a peter griffin avatar came in with a perfect impression and then he introduced his companion which was a solid snake model in a wheelchair and he also had the best impression ever
legit a lifelong experience
no i meant real sex
i will always remember that
Oh lmfao
i meet people on vr chat that i meet first on apps
it's like a first date or smth for shy people
Gotcha
That's cool
That could be a good use for vrchat then i guess, helping shy fellas get more comfortable in more "social" settings i guess
You can find some really weird people on vr chat sometimes lol
also it sucks as you can imagine because there's no real touching going on lol
Yeah lmao
i think the weirdest experience I had was like...a vr strip club? I didn't get the point of it but I was doing really good on the stage
New softtoast lore just dropped
just imagine a lego b2 battle droid hitting the hardest stanky leg but also the tracking isnt catching the stanky leg because i dont have body tracking
ye i wish i had body tracking so i could dance
so the torso is just kinda gyrating and the model is glitching through the floor
i can't dance at all but i think i can follow a groove well
all that matters tbh
I watched a video where these two guys were going around as little gnomes and doing little gremlin laughs lmao
They also did beavis and butthead
my first VR chat experience was as a default tiny low poly mouse model
i was pretty high so i just went around looking at people from corners not talking or anything
people will talk about wildly intimate stuff in public lobbies
I wish I could play gmod, it looks so fun
I only liked Gmod for Trouble In Terrorist Town tbqh
Among Us if it wasn't dumbed down and boring
Wait
The emperor really had a bunch of oiled up 9ft tall muscled men and women completely loyal to him on a genetic level?
Just sitting around his palace guarding him 24/7?
And nobody found it suspicious?
Constantin Valdor
what the fuck does bro do between years 10 and 16 if you go based on minimums, 6 years of indoctrination hypnosis stuff?
What do you mean
like you have to get the first organs at like 10-12
and you can't get black carapace until 16 minimum, so what do they have you do day to day inbetween the surguries for 6 years?
Are you doing daily activities that can still get you killed? Or do they stop that crap once they start investing in you and hope the organs don't kill you
Lots of training I'd presume
Scouts are initiates who've not had their carapace implanted for example
often, but not always
Well carapace is the last isn't it no?
Yes
It's like aspirant<neophyte<brother?
ye
I know alot of chapters are always doing fucked up stuff where aspirants die, do they stop that stuff?
Or are they still killing neophytes
depends on the chapter really but usually no
they do be dying
neophytes are used for frontline duties as well
They die enough on their own I figure, with organ rejections etc
plenty do yeah
A shit ton of training
Some do, some don't.
How much do you value your aspirants?
Damn they got the emperors tarot on gameboy now?
Tech-Adept Vorkosigen staring hard at him. The little man was almost lost in the darkness, but there was no mistaking the look of hostility on his face. He held an Emperor’s Tarot deck in his hand, a small black box with a single button and a screen to display its spread. The box rattled as it ran through a reading and stopped

iii) Imperial Standard high table manners (see appendix forty-six (46). gw tell us about the guard's standard table manners
There's also the implications of at least 7 levels of washroom discipline in this interstitial

So, how much of tertium do you think is going to die to prevent the spread of the knowledge of chaos?
I assume that a lot of Grendyl's forces will be killed, since a lot of them are 'rejects', but what kind of numbers or percent of the planet do you think?
I know there was what amounted to a civil war because the space wolves wanted to protect the few people left over after a chaos invasion of another planet, that the inquisition wanted to kill to prevent it. But then, there's the cadians, who I assume all know exactly what choas is, and have known for hundreds if not thousands of years, since it was next to the eye of terror not to mention the sheer number of black crusades against them.
The secret of Chaos isn't really current anymore with the Imperium currently under the regency of Guilliman
So for that reason, practically none
Now killed cause they're corrupted
Like 80% I'd guess
I guess when there's billions in a city, and trillions on a planet, you can take a lot of them out, and still have way too many
basically yeah, as we speak now theres literally dozens of people dying and being born a second lol
Of Tertium
oh, right
for some reason, I keep forgetting that tertium is the name of the city, not the planet
Common mistake dont worry lol
it's atoma prime
tbf, it's not like we know anything other than Tertium on Atoma atm
I think it's because when I was first told about hive cities and hive planets, I was given the impression that they were all one massive city over the entire planet, like Coruscant in Star Wars
but still, that's a lot
Besides the mysterious second hive they dont want us to talk about
nah actual ecumenopolis planets are rare
Terra is one for example, but for a Hive to cover an entire city would take a way longer time and population growth.
A single hive can house even more population than what we got rn
Also requires significant terraforming like eating your mountains and drinking your oceans
Tbf, didn't the ocean just disappear without human knowing or remembering how ?
It was due to mass atomic weapon usage
if we're talking about Terra lol
the last ounces of it got extinguished during the Siege
I do remember hearing about the mariana valley in the last church, but that's not cannon I don't think
its canon
oh, cool
I might be thinking of the animation for it, which I think is fan made? that might be it
The fan animation is entirely based on the audiobook version of the short story.
the animation itself is just a tribute to already pre-existing canon material
yeah, I'm just saying I got 'fan made' and 'non cannon' switched for a second there
Yeah I know 
Speaking of do we have anything for the full Drop Site Massacre of Isstvan V?
I’m still fairly new to 30k stuff animation, book, story and lore wise
we got a lot of trauma from it
but there are parts in many books about it, from both sides
I mean it was basically Horus pulling a Cannae lol
It was just utter devastation
oh for sure, some of my favorite chapters never recovered, hell I don't think any chapter really recovered
You get my Cannae remark right?
raven guard almost did, with the pure geneseed received from the big E, but Alpha legion decided to say hi, and that went to shit fast
I do not, i'll google it in a sec
Battle of Cannae, Hannibal’s most devastating victory against the Romans
also a betrayal?
No but a surprise ambush
Wiped out 20% of Rome’s adult male population
There’s a reason Hannibal is the Scourge of Rome
ouch
Now you see why I compared it to the Drop Site Massacre lmao
so what you're saying is, that the dating life in rome become much better by about 20%

or worse depending on what you're into
yeah, for sure
but there are a lot of resources online to get a better idea of the Dropsite Massacre
I’m just wondering if we have a full official animation of it
oooh animation, doubt it
Yeah the most you'll have is shit like Vigilus, where the hive sprawl covers vast stretches of the planet. Ecumenopolis structures like Earth take significant development.
Save for the Mechanicus portion, Vigilus itself is still mostly wide and not deep like a 'traditional' ecumenopolis ala Coruscant.
What's funny is how Rome just ate that shit on the chin and thugged it out
clutched the win against Carthage, too
They were doing that every Punic war lmao
The first one they kept losing entire fleets
And they just went
Fuck it, build another
Multiple times

or their idea to naval combat, turn it into land combat instead
If Rome can't out-kill you, it will out-last you.
Nah nvm
Tons. It was explored to basically nothing and still got a new book on it explaining it even more lol
It was hilarious tbh
Real.
We need to know every single Occurance
I’m guessing it’s considered way more devastating a moment than the Iron Cage given it was multiple chapters
Eh kinda. Idgaf because its just genocidal fascists murdering each other
Just slop
Its the 72 hour bolterporn series
Ngl for how long I’ve heard the Horus Heresy. I thought it was always something vague in 40K lore. I didn’t even know who Horus was let alone see him in anything lmao
^
Thats how it originally was
Because HH doesn’t really matter much in 40k
Yes
Besides just setting up the situation of where everyone is yeah?
Its even got all five 6 hour sex fight scenes between the primarchs
Always was and advertised as such
I mean just the imperium
Even then its not really that important
Necrons were too busy honk shoo mimimi and idk what the other xenos were doing
You just need to know the basics
Necrons are reenacting The War in Heaven as a real time play
(this is canon)
The fact that these now nearly deadpan robots create multi decade long plays is so fucking hilarious to me
That’s prob why I love Necrons so much. On one hand they’re a terrifying, blatantly broken faction of robots hellbent on conquering their old empire, and then on the other they’re slapstick humor inducing idiots

to be fair pretty much every faction has both ends of the spectrum
Yeah but Necrons seem to have it to the extremes
Tyranids 
For Tyranids it is Doom of Malan'tai, it's pretty funny when a single zoanthrope kills an entire craftworld

Bad writing 😔
More human mass death please
90% why I brought it up was to annoy you specifically, I don't really care for it in reality either

Well its pretty weak considering im just filing stuff and half-focused anyway.
Like i said next 🔈
Question
Who all gets Iron Halos? Is it just officers, or can vet sergeants and such get them?

Not helpful
It literally answers the question
Metaurus isnt a champion or officer, he has a Halo.
Does that technically mean when you play Heavy in SM2 you’re the team leader?

I read it first lol
“The Iron Halo is part of the Space Marine Armoury. It is an ancient artifact, a special Honour Badge given to a Space Marine who has shown exceptional initiative or bravery on the battlefield.”
Thats why I'm asking
"Iron Halos are so rare that in the Ultramarines, only Captains and Company Champions are authorised to wear them."
A bunch of people have it that aren't officers or champions.
Oh my god dude
In the Ultramarines
Who? lol
Literally the whole squad save Titus lol
They're just rando bladeguards.
What
that is not an iron halo
Yeah that isnt an iron halo
that's just a symbol
Alright I quickly reread through it again to make sure I’m not asking a dumb question.
Do all Iron Halos give the same strength of protection or do higher ranking people (ie Calgar) get special stronger ones?
Imperial ornamentation
Like Jerk said you guys are mixing up decorative mantles with Iron Halos I think
Depends on plot and seniority
I am confused lol
That’s only cause Heavy uses the Iron Halo, and it’s located on the section where the iron halo cosmetics are
It can, but not always.
take that with a grain of salt
It says “rare” not impossible. There isnt 5 of these in existence
^
The Blood Angels one circles the head, but most just stick straight up.
actually, to be fair, I don't think GW themselves know if they are proper iron halos or not. They used to be wargear that gave you invul saves for your captains but now they're just anywhere without invul saves
AaAAUGGHHHHHHHH
^
Do you always act like this
Thats like every question
They are a sick aesthetic. Even sisters habe them aesthetically.
Not like 80% if questions asked here can be answered by reading 1 page of Lexicanum 
Should I expect any Necron model updates for the last few old models left in their roster in 11e? Like the Lokhusts, Trazyn, Deceiver and such?
I mean, if I want to know more in depth Lexicanum isn't really enough.
Thats why I ask.
I mean
Its a piece of metal that projects a shield
There isnt really much to know
Like if someone remembers an excerpt about someone getting one, they could share it, etc. Thats why I ask in the lore channel lmao.
Or in Calgar’s case just says fuck you to chaos warp nonsense
Bruh then start with that

Slop
Bruh you could just react like a normal person instead of literally going "AAAAAAAAAAAGGHH"
🥀 🥀 🥀
She's got a point
I only did that because you’re bring a hamster
Wait speaking of slop, Eldar were made by the Old Ones correct?
