But but salamanders!
He could've been recommended 30k as a start
Anyway yeah its not a horrible starting point
you will just be a bit confused
but thats normal with 40k
Me when the Salamanders punch me in the gut multiple times with flaming fists then shoots my family because we thought the knife ears were good people
Lexicanum is very reliable
^^^
Or fanwiki 
you got played, it's like when best buy salesmen tell you something is good
^^^
Everyone makes mistakes in times of passion
Like its not a horrible series but its entirely written to make you wanna buy Ultramarines lol
Bravado slop
good entries are eisenhorn, gaunts ghost, ciaphas cain, robert rath books, and probably others
I love eisenhorn
as all should
Well I got hella last as my first book, made it like 2 chapters and was completely confused, went to find the 40K discord as well as the store and they said Dark Imperium or Horus heresy was good, but Horus was complicated and LONG
DO NOT READ THE HORUS HERESY BOOKS
BT ""fans"" when they see someone playing anything else other than Imperium:
That is one series we'll recommend you to not look into
Or well, the book experts will say anyway
they're making a new version of horus heresy series where it's just the main books of it you need
Only read HH if you're interested in HH, there's like 90 books and short stories in total
^
The writing quality is apparently quite sporadic
Some are good, some meh, some really bad
The thing is the main 40k discords are filled to the brim with Imperium/Space Marine fans, they will largely tell you anything with marines is good reading material when a lot of warhammer books are just made for sales without any good narrative depth.
I HIGHLY recommend watching lore vids then taking a look at the book club here and just looking at the pin we have to pick a series you wanna start with

As an adult who plays Warhammer, I get a lot of questions when I mention my hobby. Is that a video game? Is it like D&D? If you've heard of Warhammer, or if someone you know is into it, but you're not totally sure what is actually is, then hopefully this will clear things up! What exactly do we DO with all those toy soldiers anyway?
People with...
So, what universe is Warhammer 40,000 set in? Ours, of course! After a friend asked just that question, I wrote this; a short guide to how the 21st century turns into the 41st Millennium.
And FINE. 21 minutes. :/

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

Id highly recommend these 4 videos @limber geyser
Arbitrator Ian is a great 40k youtuber for warhammer stuff
No nonsense, no bias, no needless yapping; just good explanations for newcomers.
dilara big ian fan, the biggest
🫡
I pray to god he doenst suggest people read an esienhorn book
i hope he does ☺️
IT SUCKS!!!
you're just like that legion hater fellow
Read that in Peter Griffin's voice ngl
yeah that was the idea lmaooo
Eisenhorn is a little dated but it's a classic
I read it as one of my first Warhammer books and it was terrible!!!
I do agree its extremely overrated but its still a great intro
yeha I rad xenos it wasDOGSHIT!!!!
@arctic talon you love my new name
I like horus rising but its a little mid icl
there was a guy ranting about Xenos on 40klore having contradictions / inaccuracies a few months back and people had to tell him the book is almost 25 years old, made me laugh reading it
Good name lol
Apparently the first couple books on the downfall of Horus are good, but then it just sort of breaks down from there at the end
im amazed at how much i love and get this character
ig he isnt too popular
35 games on him already
welcome back heavy weapons guy
Horus heresy is like one of those drugs that literally only causes you ungodly torturous pain that you still get addicted to
I swear I read part of the issue with pacing on Horus' fall is they genuinely did not expect so many books for it
THATS WHY I LOVE HIM
Abnett thought there might be at most five Heresy books so he had to pack it densely together
I wouldnt be surprised
There are SO many books about it
oh wow I just realized thats how you see your rank
It was meant to be 10 books
xenos ain't bad its fun
Im literally bottom of the barrel rn 💀
i lied its emissary
oh only now it loaed
you arent far off
nice
One (1) good loretuber
uhmm weshammer and majorkill 
😭
akshually dystopian chimp is goated for this alone ok
@ocean narwhal
Holy shit I found a picture of an evil Warhammer 40k
black berries are pretty good
but the texture
mm.
and how cold it is fresh out of the fridge
mm.
Blackberries are good
But my dad refuses to buy them because of two reasons
A) Stains
jesus christ
Never willingly bought one ever again for obvious reasons
It's too bad because black berries taste fucking great

But Raspberries are also bangers
I find it kind of a struggle to eat these ngl
I also find it funny that Blue Raspberry exists as a flavor.
But they never taste like raspberries
And also why does it exist
they taste good just the crunch is really getting me

The seeds
Yeah I like blackberry feel better
But raspberry taste is better than blackberries
I like the slight sourness
but I think uhhh
its something I can get used to?
but at the same time I can't see myself buying more
I don't mind it
Obviously
But yeah blackberries have a better feel
Just prefer raspberry taste overall
like I know I like something from the very start
If I like it, I'll buy it 50 times over
Also again, find it funny that Blue Raspberry flavor exists despite blue raspberries literally not existing
if I don't I never touch it again.
thats horrific
Blue berry flavor
Which is why I understand my dad never wanting to buy blackberries ever
Like at all
He just refuses
I love raspberry flavor but i dont think I liked raspberries that much
got it froma shit store
It was from Costco
oh
We buy our fruits from Costco

They're mostly good tbh
Besides the black berry incident, never had anything similar
theres a blackberry bush near my house that i pick berries off when theyre ripe
And said BlackBerry incident was when I was like
im torturing myself eating these
now i will be paranoid about a fly egg infestation
I am 21 for reference
its like eating unseasoned brocolli
idk how ppl can eat brocolli unseasoned like bro its str8 ass

i loooove brocolli
It’s good steamed
lol
unironically
Steamed Broccoli is good
Pretty sweet
Grilled is fine
Eh
my family just made it bad I suppose.
boiled is fine too tbh
If it’s mushy it’s gone too far
nope
Could be
Could also just hate broccoli
little bit of butter on it afterwards maybe
no boiled shit fo rme
I made good broccoli before in the oven
Gotta have some snap
I mean I cannot eat Brussel Sprouts
There's a reason why
I like eating the head of broccoli mostly
Every kids show has a child hate brussel sprouts
i looove brussel sprouts too haha
My mom would bring me home quiche
That looks good
As long as it has no eggs
Brussel sprout is tasty.
delicious
Eggs are like
One thing I literally cannot handle
why lie
Maybe because when people become adult, the bitter taste felt just like life.
Even the smell of like cooked eggs make me gag
We are literal opposites it seems
goodness.
I don't know why
I love me some sunny side ups
i looooooove eggs
aw dude
Obviously fine if it's used for like cooking cake but in general
It's why breakfast was never my most important meal of the day
Now I know your weakness, start to through egg at Laati.
Nah raw egg smell is fine
It's when it's cooked
Im not from the US so egg doesn't cost a fortune.
Again I don't know why
Autism
I think it's the autism ngl
So you’d eat raw eggs
Boiled egg throwing for more concussion damage.
Still no
I wish raw eggs were safer in the US
Just the smell is fine
lol
I c
Again it's definitely the autism.
It's also why restaurants that are based off of like breakfast foods?
I'm kinda limited in options
I like waffles
I like pancakes
But as soon as sausage and eggs are there. The whole plate is just fucking TAINTED
Because the "breakfast" is pretty much a social construct.

Tbf breakfast mainly refers to the time.
I think my breakfast is literally just a bar or something
I also like boiled carrots
You eat it to tide you over
For me and many people when I used to live in Eastern Asia, breakfast meal is the same as any other meals.
Yeah it's like
I eat ice cream in winter
I meant to the Westernized restaurant.
Or diet
I think it's better in the winter
there are still foods that are eaten in the breakfast more often then in other meals tbf
The ice cream keeps itself together longer
But in general Asian breakfasts are closer to lunch
Which, to be honest, it is not even true. European breakfast up to the early 1900s is very filling.
yes
Compared to western diets where it's different
For some
Reason
Marketing ig
But waffles and pancakes are fucking delicious
anyways no one really eats this for any meal other then breakfast in Taiwan for example
I mean it is just normal meal items but like
not this dish combination
Old full meal breakfast in France is very close to a typical dinner.
Until they hit the famine...
I think that's also in China
I think I've eaten that before
Tbf carbs are often considered the devil for no reason
Marketing.
Breakfast burritos and biscuits and gravy are my go to
Carbs are important, it's just that our diet in general is unbalanced
nah its just funny from a conceptual standpoint
People want to eat but don't want to move.
I like the fried dough sticks though
Deep fried butter
I eat a lot of those back in the day.
I have no idea why like
It is not breakfast, but rather snack.
Deep fried butter exists
It doesn't even taste different from regular butter
A lot of snack are now labelled "breakfast" or some fking reason.
yeah bcs its gimmick food
Cereal is a snack. If you just eat it alone, it is never enough.
its to price gouge people at places lol
Not even stores
Just fairs
Some other weird things I'm picky about are
- Cheerios (Hate them)
same difference really
- Eggplant
I hate how mushy it becomes when you cook it
Egg was the evil food for like 20 years for the cholestenone content from studies funded by questionable sources.
Although my dad might just be cooking it wrong
And like
Some Italian restaurants
Yeah
if its stir fried its also kidna mushy
I really like eggplant though lol
I like the taste
Eggs objectively are good for you.
I ain't eating them though

Like I would eat them if I was like
About to die of starvation
But that's about it

Post picture
its like a braised stirfried eggplant thing
Actually wait I know its chinese name I'm just going to shove it into google translate
braised eggplant according to google translate
lmao
Good job, Wolfy.
somehow even with a feeder we won
jesus christ
Eggplant is good
The only bad food is brains, carcass cake, and overly fermented foods
One my cousin likes pig brains 💀
In hotpot
Anything related to brains scares me
Prions scare me
I think I was a kid when they finally banned the sale of beef brains because of madcow in like... 2003ish
Ghoulish cousin
Oooooo Psychology ooooo
Oooooo Psychonauts ooooooo
Raw horse meat cousin or pig brain cousin
Pick one
I want a Psychonauts 3 so badly
Gotham City Impostors? Haven't thought of that game in a long while
360 / PS3 generation was the golden age of weird experimental games, I miss it a bunch
You drop like a sack of puppies, cute
Biggest body character, glider pack
Instant kill dive bombs
god i had PTSD hearing that
That was the first game I ever saw an account level 1000
And the Witch Doctor

The fucking Witch Doctor
Never accept drinks from that man
Question: what are some bigger or scarier enemies a scrappy underdog veteran guardsmen could reasonably, with a lot of luck and grit, take out?
I feel like a chaos space marine is a little too powerful
If the guardsmen has a melta or plasma it isn’t at all
Looks at the Word Bearer killed by a simple spear
Need plasma/melta/some other special weapon to be more believable: CWE aspect warrior, Drukhari Incubus, Marines(all inclusive), ogryn with armor, Grotesque, Hearthkyn Warrior, tau battle suit(crisis or stealth), Tyranid warrior
Lasgun is fine: normal wych, normal kabalite warrior, eldar guardian, cultist champion, ogryn without armor, high ranking traitor guardsmen officer, anything human in carapace armor can die to a lasgun without much issue.
Guardsmen are kind of
Always punching up lol
A lot of factions have gear lasguns really cannot deal with without concentrated fire/getting extremely lucky with a gap
So if they’re on their own the best bet to kill something impressive is always gona be grenades or special weaponry
If you need more help don’t be afraid to ask
I think a good thing to keep in mind is the big difference between one lasgun and 10,000 aimed on the same target
There's an excerpt of a Chaos Marine warning some other slaves to darkness to not dismiss the lasgun because it's can still kill them dead if enough guardsmen aim right
Yeah
Ironically in a FFG game
Where a normal human can become immune to lasguns without too much issue
The Legionnaire that scoffs at a lasgun has not charged across an open field against a hundred of them.
Could a chainsword rip through the neck of a chaos marine? Like where there isn’t armor plating
That bit is really hard to reach
but if it got stuck in yes
other wise it can crack ceramite
it'll just take some time
which the guardsmen might not have 💀
I’m thinking the guardsmen in question has a krak grenade or a melta gun, having the reader belive that’s how the marine will die but the conflict twists, and the final blow ends up being a lucky chainsword strike eviserating the neck
It would probably require the legionnaire in question go be pompously monologuing which is an overused trope or something to that extent
The Chaos Marine getting worn down by both the krak grenade and melta before the guardsmen snuffs him with a chainsword is totally believable imo
Like shots and grenades that barely miss a lethal hit wearing them down
Maybe the grenade takes off one of his arms for dramatic effect and a bit more believability

I’d have the melta miss or cripple the marine, bcs anything center mass or to the head just kills them on the spot lmao
That’s what I was thinking
Krak’s don’t always kill a marine so you can have that one stick but cripple em as well if you want like Yuuka mentioned
The guardsmen in question also would’ve been thrown through near mind shattering warp horrors and fights being lost to chaos the entire time. And I think the warp never truly leaves the deeper recesses of the guardsmen’s brain
I don't know if it's lore accurate that the Krak grenades stick to armor like they do in Darktide but it's cool enough to me that I'd go with it
I’d also go with it
he's simply built different with the Titus gene
Titus gene?
I wouldn’t say nearly to the extent of surviving a demons mind blast
Or just having strong willpower
Titus in Space Marine 1 and 2 is extremely resistent to Chaos corruption to an absurd degree
Thank you samurai sword
lmao yeah it's really just plot armor
NOT MY NAME
Still funny he has no official name for the hybrid form
I will ALWAYS slander and rage bait Black Templars
I wouldn’t want it to be plot armor level, like I think he sees his squad get murked and witnesses horrific images that haunt him
And he battles with it
Yeah that works
its literally an requirement to be a fuctioning member of society to slander them
Now as for the ending, I’m split between a rogue trader recruits him into their retinue or a commissar executing him for the warp touched psyche 
I like the former with a Rogue Trader or Inquisitor because it's a combo of both less and more grimdark
Inqusitorial retinue/rogue trader retinue would be cool
Also could lead to a sequel‼️
Sort of a happy ending but he's gonna meet an even worse ending because of it, almost 100%
Comissar blowing their brains out is depressing but if you want finality
Pick it
Working for an inquisitor or rogue trader usually will end with an even more horrific death
Then getting your brains splattered by a boltgun
I’ll see which one makes more sense as he bloodily exits the warp infested cave or factory
Thank you all for being my wall to bounce ideas off 
It's my favorite kind of 40k lore discussion tbqh
Same with the TTRPG GMs looking for advice on a scenario
If I were to run a 40K ttrpg game the players would 100% be members of a rogue traders retinue
Another note: I think it would be sick if the sergeant of the squad fell to chaos and backstabbed the squad and the protagonist puts him down leading up to the marine fight climax
My favorite part of Owlcat's Rogue Trader were the colony events and summoning the party members as actual advisors on how to handle a problem.
That in a ttrpg would be superb
I still need to play it
I liked it more than BG3
Letting the archon just have her “vacation” being the planetary governor of one of your worlds is the funniest shit ever
Funniest low security event tbh
I like the implication on how this effects Drukhari soul drain
Mercilessly skin one orphan vs totally grind down billions of people through faceless bureaucracy? Which feeds them more?
Imperial governance and bureaucracy is so miserable it generates enough torment to fill a Archon lol
If you do anything to her it gets worse lmao
Try to drown her in paperwork and she optimizes torturing the clerks with paperwork
Try to forcibly remove her and she just kills all the assassins and almost everyone in the govenor’s palace
10/10 Owlcat
I remember a book excerpt of a drukhari going to Terra and almost legit OD'ing on human suffering
From the series were the High Lords have to call in the Dark Eldar to fix the failing Golden Throne
Yep
Do other penal legions besides the last chancers let exceptional penal soldiers graduate to being a guardsmen
I’m thinking the protagonist could be a fella nick named “sole” because throughout the entire tour he was on, he was the only lad that survived every minefield and machine gun nest they were thrown at. At the beginning of the story, it’s his first ever deployment and a proper and humble guardsman
Canon fodder that got promoted to meat grinder instrument
We do not have a ton of lore on penal legions but I'd say its a safe bet if someone proves themselves to be exceptional yes
I kind of want a dialogue to go something like
Guardsmen: “I wish command would supply us more charge packs!”
Sole: “I’m just happy to start enter a firefight with a gun in my hands for once”
Or something to that effect
Because in the penal legions, one out of 10 or 20 lads would get a lasgun. Very Soviet esc
Depends. Surviving and performing are 2 different things.
I’d say if I was a commissar and if I sent a penal legion member through several minefields and machine gun nests and he was consistently the only survivor, I’d be convinced the emperor himself was protecting that lad
Despite the saying that the guardsmen surviving a battle are considered veterans, not all of them are the same.
Surviving hard, but not the hardest. The upstanding soldiers committed to completion of the mission are more likely to die.
Agreed
wtf
you mean coming back unscathed?
If I ever write something centered around humans in Warhammer 40,000 I'd just copy Cyberpunk RED / 2077's attitude of no happy endings
considering the context of 40k
i think a soldier consistently surviving missions would be sus as fuck to a commisar
and suspicion is probably enough lmfao
By the standards of the 40k Imperium Leandros was literally completely justified in snitching on Titus at the end of the first Space Marine
what did titty do
He was, he just snitched to the wrong faction
I like how in rogue trader, you have the option of making mental warp ptsd be part of your character's backstory. A chaos sorcerer once tried to forcibly corrupt my commissar during a battle in the past. He was only just barely able to resist it, but the whole ordeal left his mind scarred forever
It's like instead of snitching to HR
he decided to go to the fucking FBI
Was it even the wrong faction then? He still got promoted to Chaplain.
I don't think he got promoted for that particular thing though
It does confuse me that Leandros wasn't punished for snitching. It's a clear breach of the chain of command within a chapter that is famously sticklers about such things.
tbf he was new
it might've been a case where they just let him off after yelling at him

Getting your company commander snatched up by the inquisition on a hunch seems like a big deal
tbf that hunch was like
"Literally fighting a Chaos Warlord, several daemons, and being fooled by a daemon puppeting a corpse... and somehow not being affected"
tbf if there is one chapter that would have a bunch of those types
It would be UMs
I agree that it's extremely concerning but a chaplain is the only person who can judge
meta jokes aside yeah
I think it's been a while though so maybe Leandros got his punishment and worked his way up to chaplain regardless
And Ultramarines, being so obsessed with protocol, not punishing Leandros for breaking it really bugs me
Tbf it isn't his fault that the Inquistor turned out to be even more of a freak than usual
AKA hating space marines a lot
Yeah I don't blame him for that
Remember that it is like 200 years since SM1 happened.
But yeah we should've at least had a mention of this.
The dude has time to change, but the taint of chaos remain.
It's very likely that Leandros already got his punishment
(the dude is Leandros)
and went through it
Except no chaos taint was ever discovered
and became a Chaplain
But this is just extrapolation due to the 200 year long timeframe
In fact, literally the only person who insists it is the same guy who turned out to be a chaplain
There is a big issue with the imperium is that aside from the top of the top in the system, not many people understand that warp power and chaos power are not the same.
also Chaplians in general are meant to be extremely scruntizing and suspicious of others so ig Leandros fits well
He just has a bias that needs to be dealt with by HR
Most marines captains are still expendable.
There was the other Ultramarine who was banished because he broke protocol and still won a war.
Leandros betrayed his company commander.
tbf inconsistent punishments is a top tier imperium moment
Uriel Ventris
That's his name
I just want some consistency from the By-the-book marine chapter
Uriel is the only UM SM protag I feel bad for.
He's basically the epitome of
"Plot Armor doesn't necessarily mean you're comfy"
And I would say being shoved into a Daemonculba is the opposite of comfy

Probably because he actually feels like a human being
But also because again
Shoved. Into. A. Daemonculaba.

Which made the new born
Would this count as reverse pregnancy
Chaos version of Primaris Marines that I haven't seen since
I think it technically is still a normal pregnancy just horrible
...he just needs some makeup
Well, more horrible
"Congratulations Uriel! You're now a Dad!"
He kind of was
"I AM IN CONSTANT AGONY."
And like any responsible parent, he killed the abomination he helped create
What an unfortunate name
Does it have some meaning?
Well at least after all of that. Uriel got returned back into the UM!
...yay?
You know, its weird that you dont see this particular model of the Deathguard Daemon prince anymore. What happened to it?
I just realized there's a third arm on his back?
I think that's an arm
I think there was a bunch of skinless half created Marines, some angry ghosts and a more or less innocent kid getting old yeller'd
I think its a lump of flesh
No it just sounds like Latin for genitals or something
But yeah, he made it back in
Yeah Uriel genuinely felt bad for mercy killing the last Unfleshed
Straight up "Look at the flowers, Lenny."
I'm pretty sure that whole experience was enough to give him PTSD despite being an SM
it's old OOP finecast kit, it came to the end of it's lifespan
the original metal kit is from 2006 which was then changed to finecast around 2011-2012
this exact fucking video appeared for me
why are you haunting me with this shit
domesticated 💀
Yeah yeah, Tender Is The Flesh, we've all read it
that is not what I was thinking!
Strongly doubt that
And after all that he wrote the ahriman books
I gotta say the dark imperium book (1) so far is really fun and enlightening to someone new, I’ve been talking about it with my wife amongst other 40K stuff and she said she would read it after me
JOHN FRENCH RJSKDNJXKSJD
What did he mean by this
The imperium would see this and still go "fuck you >:("
Huh
Its the fuckin grinch what
What book
On Easter they should reveal a stormcast model
Damn I didnt know power weapons could do that
I was trying to make a Jesus joke!!!!!
They can yeah
This is lore chat everything is completely serious
No jokes
huh
Okay Ciaphas Cain’s Catheter
He's gotta pee too :((
LMAO
The batteries last for a very long time and we don't see it because we'll the main characters sword dying isn't very narrative interesting.
yeah true
if i had to guess the battery isnt easily rechargable as a lasgun's aswell
Not in darktide
Shush you
One to three swings and done
It doesn't die it just automatically turns off
WHY
But they dont do this for the relic blade- gets assassinated
Tender Is the Flesh
The battery is more valuable than the person
No whats it about
In theory, power weapons run out of charge in the game
Gameplay =/= Lore
All animal meat becomes contaminated with a virus so people turn to cannibalism and some people are assigned as livestock
As you do
itd be kinda funny if they renewal a power swords battery the same way they do with lasguns
just put in a camp fire or let the sun hit it for a few minutes
Yes but also Lore =/= lore
Nope.
The lore gets ignored constantly for cool factor.
Additionally, gameplay =/= gameplay
Especially in games so lol
Thats what I'm saying
^^^
We are in agreement
which is funny because GW is extremely asinine about the shit in this game
mfers will say no to shirtless cosmeics for "lore accuracy" 😩
GW give me my shirtless Elysian Sigma
Got an add about someone getting a 1 year masters degree lma
What’s next, an 8 month bachelors
Bullying business majors is unquestionably moral
Its called money
And captalism
Yes.
If it was only about money they would approve every idea
Darktide is sad bc it clearly has so mucb love and passion behind it and yet its held back so much by corporate greed and manpower issues
No i mean like
The GW writers are just insane
people dont really like horde-shooters unless its super simplistic
but GW is also responsible yes
they suck

Fs corporate is also to blame afaik
Lmao
Me when the issue id capitalism and if fs was solely made up of ppl who wanted to provide a good experience itd probably be one of the best 40k games ever
In my opinion
You can’t release AoS models without also releasing Necromunda models
"You can't have chaos space marine armor in operations, it wouldn't be lore accurate!"
Also GW when writing all of Titus's story:
Basically yeah
its all bullshit
(also Saber sucks)
The only cure to space marine is IEDs
fuck saber fuck focus fuck gw
Such a fucking dumb death
?
the Ultramarine sergeant who literaly dies to an IED in space marine 2
Possession
Oh my god
who cares about that fucking loser
lmao
That… happens in tabletop
yeah
also like-
space marines are not invincible
Hes just some nobody ultramarine
i dont, i find it INSANELY fucking hilarious
i know space marines arent invincible but like
there was enough time for even a maulnorished reject to react to that
and he still fucking died

Yeah but again space marines die to dumb shit all the time
they are stupid himbos
D3+3 wounds
One was almost beaten to death with ploughs
veteran sergeant
hyped up by chairon like he's THE GUY
gets killed by an improvised explosive made by some dumb fuck cultists
Xander, from Brothers of the Snake
Tbf every ork book does the exact same bit
Thats just shitty writing like most of SM2
i cannot believe people praise this shit 💀
i loved that ngl
Me too
acting like chairon or the red scottish guy are some epic figures
literally just nobodies
lmao
JoPlaysGames did that video saying how the rejects could destroy a space marine
they wanted 1 whole book about how they died heroically, its unecessary
it just happens
GSC has touched the untouchable multiple times
Yeah and like again
they are literally side characters
people actually being upset they died was what got me
(and as i said then everyone forgot 2 weeks later)
I think a lot of people just liked Chairon so they got mad i guess
The gsc delivering 500 pickaxe blows to the space marine armor
Warhammer 40k is a media where you need to turn off your brain to enjoy tbh, if you want actual good writing, even for books, its kinda very rare
Most of the time its just one sided stories to just... exist and talk about faction vs faction
Dont think any tears where shed for Acheran tho lmao
This guy never read spears of the emperor
I dont really agree. At that point literally everything is just MCU slop.
unlike now where some percentage of 40k is MCU slop
theres very good boks around it but most of it is pure slop
This one never read the WB books
Most HH books are slop
It's on my to read but its very down the line]
40K is different
The First Heretic?
Oh have fun when you get there
oh it’s you lol I didn’t recognize you from your pfp
yeah its down there
also looked at my to read list is bigger than i thoyught i have 7 books before that one
lmao
Lmao good luck
HH can be annoying to read as a totality
they got really carried away about it and just made slop pile of nothing to just bloat the story to unnecessary levels
Battle for the Abyss
yeah im not reading all of em, imma pick the ones who sound the most interesting
Sane choice
This is what i did too
im like
lol
tbh imma just go pick the release order for all HH books and see the ones who look the most worth it to read
dawg i already had that open
Damn sorry for trying to help : )
chud
Sounds aight for a plan
I just read everything on a certain legion
tbh
almost every single WB book is peak
the ones in the mare some of the most universally praised books of the Heresy
lol
Just them and general story
We got it good fr
the ones i want to read the most is Fulgrim, First Heretic, Nemesis, Betrayer, Mark of Calth and Scars
Betrayer, Aurelian, etc
I read uh,,, the two ultra marine books that don’t involve gullima in HH
Fulgrim is whatever but the others are the peak ones
What was it called
i heard its pretty good
Battle for the Abyss?
Its just showing how his legion falls to chaos
it isnt much
but i guess its funny
also lots of shit smeared paintings
Was that the first conflict between ultramarines and WB?
Yeah i think so
That was realy good
was it written by the same guy who did the IF poop vault? 
No, 40k always had shit like this
lol
I found it aight, but not as good as the others
(pun intended)
The beginning was super striking and made me fall in love with the ultramar system
By the Daemonculaba guy in fact lmao
And the flinch instinct the guy had where he was like “wh did my threat detectors go off? Why did I think there was a foe!”
Was super good
I dont recall the beginning too much tbh, and Skraal i remember was cool, maybe ill give it another shot
Ah lmao
Hey what’s the like style of technology that’s between modern day and scifi
Like black ops 2
Just read the latest high command in HD2 and lmao operation “Valid Pretext”
Casette Futurism
basically 60-80's tech with sci-fi flair
Alien has a TON of it
OH WAIT BLACK OPS 2
And it’s so peak

Lmao
Uh Black Ops 2 is like I wanna say Metal Gear style? Kinda like MGS4 where its set in "reality" of early 2000's combat but with a tactical flair to it, im not sure if it has a specific name
its hard to find because its very niche
Metal gear is probably a close enough description tbf
I wanan host another horror genesys campaign but my friends say I keep scaring them too badly 
So I am trying to see if I can lore them with tacticool
got cucked by the automod

daemonculaba would be so cool if it wasnt just r#pe fantasy
Its not really that
its just edgelord gore stuff
like- i hate that people keep referencing it because theres so much worse shit in 40k lol
yeah like the imperium has done some shady shit
like the gene stealer experiment
That one chapter of Marines that kidnap women so they can be used for "breeding stock"
Ye
Lmao yeah
The uhh Scythes or someone with their exact same scheme i forgot their dumbass name
Great inclusion because some dumbasses need to know marines are awful beings.
Yeah it’s like, meh
Secundus ( @heady rivet ) and the second sons
It loses its effect after awhile lol
they reference it as the worst thing in 40k while it just being objectively false
Yep
I think the only EVER 40k thing that horrified me was the servitor factory in Flesh and Steel
that shit traumatized me
I like the concept of the daemonculaba just not how it was made
There so much worse
the descriptions are just oof
Its a GSC sweep once again for the scariest thing in 40K
ah
truly the paragon of morality
lol yeah thats one
LMAO
I love these because peopel get SO upset when thye get reminded marines are awful people
"ERM GUILLIMAN WOULDNT ALLOW THIS"
I doubt they're the only ones that do shit like this as well
He does and he approves
oh he wouldn't but like he isn't looking is the thing
It makes a lot of sense if you have no morals as well
Guilliman looking at the state of the Imperium
"Just let them have it, I have worse shit to worry about..."
letting people be trapped on a planet to breed with each other to make a steady recruit base
Like he is busy with much more dangerous matters that you think he has the capability to manage everything on his own?
Basically, which he outright says too
idk why people think he can literally fix everything
like some übermensch hero figure
He probably would be fine with this
lol
*emperor
There's too much going on for him to bother
man even IF he solved the Imperium's problem I doubt he would even care and ban the breeding worlds as well
If he ever gets a moment to sit down he might deal with it but he'll never get the time
The people who refuse to recognize the space marines are the bad guys are the same ones who hate gulliman lmao
black templar/space wolf/redditor chapters fans
you dont understand space marines are le good heroes of le imperium!! they wopuld never do anythin bad!!!! heretic!!!
LMAOOOOO
I should update this with the Death Spectres lololol
The average "imperium are the good guys" poster:
And carcaradons
god i hte death spectres lmao, i have been syaign how much i hated them for YEARSSS
dont forget the uhhh lets see
- Christian cross in bio
- Bad AI pfp, bonus if space marine
- Some templar ass text in bio
i was arguing with a chud who had a GypsyCrusader AI pfp and AMERICAN EAGLE AS A BANNER WHO SAID FEM CUSTODES SHOULDNT AND DONT exist in canon
like
2 days ago
... a slur crusader?
and HE HAD A CROSS ON HIS BIO AND "RAC/IST" ON HIS PRONOUN TAB
LMAO
streamer whos a white supremacist larper
"GW ORCHESTRATED IT"
the guy who cosplays as joker
is it that guy who got called out bty his own fanbase for lying constnatly
and stealing other warhammer creators art
Gypsy isn't into 40k as far as I know
oh okay
white supremacist
actual nazi german flag in his room
had the SS flag as well
looks inside
isnt even white
it hit them so bad now theyre calling everything new GW makes woke

theyre now clinging with Henry Cavills 40k amazon show
i hope to god theres a black woman as a protagonist
i love how people pretend that the woke secret govermetn is making 40k woke, they have NEVER seen an aos model int heir life
Well not quite
its only bad if um
📜
lets see
they call anything that isnt straight up white supremacist propaganda woke
you can have a woman as a side character with no name that shows up on frame for 2 seconds to say a single line and they call it woke
All in on it having both
dont forget people with disabilities
and they still call it woke when the woman is white
mfs tweet all the time how white women are pure and saints and trad wives and then groan when they see a woman in media
It depends but largely yeah
a chud's idea of a white woman is only good when they are gooner bait
dont ask white supremacists what country their wives are from
\
the reason behind that is hilarious too
they see dating/marrying non-white women as like uh
"tasting the forbidden fruit"

i much prefer this version
LMAO
its hilariously hypocritical
sully wasn't kidding
if you are racist you shoudl at least follow your own standards!
That na'vi pussy got me acting different
They’re hypocritical
you should swap who the arrows are pointing at
Tbh more chapters would probably do it if their homeworld was in an empty shithole like the ghoul stars lol
when the black woman is hot they suddenly go "awooga one of the GOOD ones!"
Yeah they instead engage in the more humane way of recruitment of kidnapping teenagers and making them die in wilderness or kill each other.
Most chapters have a breeding world already it comes with your founding
"more humane"
kidnapping children and erasing their memories of their parents
Find this is common with chuddies:
Say something morally grandstanding ("People are too degenerate" or something racist for example)
Are degenerates or wanna date PoC despite what they say or claim to believe in
Its pretty weird
Tbh thats basically just school isnt it
what typa of schools u going to, ho
My school taught my my dad was wokeness and my mother was welfare...
Shout out to F is for Family btw, one of the wokest shows to ever take place in the 70s
What's that saying again rules for thee not for me
I love how it reflects modern day issues with the exact same issues existing 50 years ago, it’s pretty horrifying realizing that these problems have always existed
Yep thats the saying
Yeah, feels like we'll never learn at this rate. Which tbf I guess we'll never be truly content with our lives, but cant we try at least a bit?
Oh a bot
Can't even screenshot properly smh
god dakmn it lmao
they can do with a good culling, digital dawrinsim
I like theorychat though
Oooof my bad
Rad as hell!
I was thinking of including a detail that the commissar interrogated the fuck out of the said protagonist and only barely didn’t put a bolter through his skull because of his avid dedication to the throne 
Or that the protagonist saved the commissars life, etc etc
Their loss
Diversity win! This nazi is a lesbian!
