Centurions, clearly
but then, Black templars interest me as well
Centurions²
Bligh likes centurions so much he made them again
I want to know what makes them special other than hating xenos extra
They're knights
I do think it’s hilarious Bligh thinks the only faction he got correct the first time around was craftworld eldar
With squires
Space marines but horde
They have weird squads
Religious sm used to be rare iirc
Black Templars are like
Not actually that interesting lore wise imo
The meme community just loves them
They're footslog marines who like swords

Number varies every edition lol
isnt that fucking all of them
Yea
Basically, yeah
Ain't there a rule about only being allowed to have a thousand per chapter or is that a codex complaint thing only
BT in lore reject the codex
And say “screw that, we’re doing this our way”
They reject most of it
alright so its a codex complaint thing
Except for the parts they liked
There's more than 1k per chapter if you count support staff and dreads
Lol
gotcha
BTs are fanatics of a religious kind, zealot types. They dgaf about the codex so they have a lot a lot of marines but spread out across many fleets
Which mostly are squad formation
Tbh one of the more unique things about them is the religion bit
Oh so theyre just more staunchly religious
Most marine chapters aren't super faithful
Alright guys i did my entire night's undertaking of making a knight/titan height chart
Carchs are too
They’re extremely religous
Thank you
this shit better be correct
Now put Tyberos on the very right
Looks correct to me
The rotund one
dude the acastus are fucking MASSIVE
They are LOL
yeah I had to check
Did you account for the Dies Irae suddenly changing height
What do the racer patterns mean? I see that a lot
Especially on admech shit and orks
Checkers indicate goffs for orks generally
its a callback to archaic heraldry
a lot of ye olde european folk used checker patterns
it stuck with 40k because it looks cool
It occurs to me that I don't like the building on the imperator
same but lol
Also someone tried to bring up dies irae as a imperator titan that didn’t die in its first appearance
My favorite titans are reavers tbh
Grimdank moment
in your guys opinion, what are some actual marine books worth reading
Dies Irae dying on some random shithole is funny
also man i forgot how tall even Armigers are compared to humans
All that history
Deathwatch Omnibus
I always think of the kingmaker scene about how a “small hill” got up
Lukas the Trickster
Lol
Didn't one die walking a little too far forward
knew I heard of him
Yeah i had to check because you get the perception that Armigers are small so they really shouldnt be that big
then I see this and FAHHHH
Dante, Lukas the trickster, Deathwatch omnibus, spears of the emperor
Armigers being so big is funny tbh
I think my favorite thing is peopel also wanting to insist titans like the warlord and imperator should be the size of mountains
then not realising how the Imperator is like the ENTIRE LOWER HALF of the empire states building
People do not realize how fucking big
people really do not understand sizes
Titans are
YEP
Like theres folks being mad Reavers are as tall as the Statue of Liberty
and im like
have you fucking stood below that statue
and looked up
lmao
I think if it moved I’d scream lol
folks really do not realise sizes of "regular things" until thye are right next to one
a normal knight is like about the size of a telephone poll
and even thats big af
Dante -> devestation of baal, Brothers of The Snake,
Helsreach also was nice
Stupid chudamanders
I remembered titans being a bit shorter, wonder where that came from
ok good
fandom perception
the fans have like a REALLY weird obsession with making titans huge
its wha ti was saying to elite
these mfers dont realise how tall regular structures are in general
arent there hundreds
Correct
Imperial fans thing tbh
Abouts
a lot of them are just generic
A lot of them are mid
Yeah like the moment a titan is the size of a mountain you kinda lose me. The biggest I accept is the Imperator which should be as tall as the lower half of the Empire States building
Who has more slop, guard or marines
It's more in my head imperators were like statue of liberty height which while big, makes the rest a bit short
nah they are like WAY bigger
Imperators got entire buildings on them
so the lower half of Empire States is like closer
Crazy
Anyway more ordinatus the cool wmd please
It has to be marines right
LMAO
Deffo marines
They got way more exposure
when you look at guard books they are like...
barely about a hundred i think?
and thats over 30 years
Ultramarines have more slop than the entirety of guard I think
I wish I liked UM ngl
I don't know, there's a lot of Lyons novels out there
UM are fine, I mildly like them
I checked the lexi page now
I don't hate them fwiw
he is mentioned 9 times
I simply don't like them much either
GARBAGE
Aso trying to do a rough count of total novels and uhhh
roughly around 924 novels?
Sounds right
Yeah agreed
30 years of churning these out
- with the recent push since 2018 of more novels steadily going to 1000
I know what I'm not reading now
Your fate is approaching....
but yeah i think if you wanna read marine books do the recommendations we did above
most of them are very fun
Love DW Omnibus
Need to finish 2 books on my plate first. first eisenhorn book then probably divine
Crimes is a REALLY comfy "breaktime" series. Id suggest reading all its novels or at least anthology books (the latter more because theres so many varyign stories)
its great to read novels that have NOTHING to do with major factions, wider 40k and is just some noir shit on an industrial planet
`So there are 672 novel length Warhammer stories, but 1380 published physical novels.
Stories: (Total, followed by # of Chronicles;40K;Heresy;AoS)
Comic: 448 (186;261;1;0)
Novel: 672 (159;369;74;69)
Novella: 145 (8;81;24;32)
Short story: 2148 (280;1219;209;440)`
A year ago, wack
Crime is top tier
Yeah I'm more interested in actual human life in the imperium
Yeah Varangantua is great for that in that case
like to give oyu an idea
the most "high authority" faction character that shows up in all Crime stories is a fucking Arbiter.
and his arrival in a novel is treated like a space marine intro, its great lmao
Read Flesh and Steel it's very nice and cozy
always do
Has all the 4 books + 4 anthology books
Dude has a cat
Lmao yeah like you can literally pick anywhere to start
is that good on admech lore
VERY good
NICE
Yea
especially regarding their presence on a "basic ass" planet
Flesh and Steel is like one of the most universally praised Crime books
Our time of no crime will end soon mark my words

just need to exterminate one last stretch of hab blocks and we're free of lex breakers bro I promise
Sure but I want them crimes
@crystal forum I beat re7 and not a hero
Honestly
10 game for me
Boat segment was my favorite by far
I havent had that much fun in a game or beat a single player game in a couple years
Okay ngl the bottom 3 and the ice cream sound fire
I like crows
I wonder if the imperium higher or nobles have bets like this: ||https://fxbsky.app/profile/davidsirota.com/post/3mg6yoamahm2k||
Polymarket has created a market that would monetize a nuclear attack amid increasing concerns that bets are happening among government insiders who can make military decisions.

ik i sound like a broken record but uh, in comparison to loyalist marines, do chaos marines have more good books?
When do we get the body count lottery irl
I feel like this would be an easy money maker
I cherish Warhammer with all my heart, I don't care how many Warhammer fans, game designers and shareholders I need to kill for it to be good and affordable.

There’s a market for me to fill then/j

Stupid kids don’t pay attention in class anyway so it doesn’t matter
Thanksgiving was about giving Thanks to the kind Indians who welcomed us, if Thanks is code for smallpox and colonization and SA and murder
Context is that this is like, a 2nd or 3rd grader history book
Since people mentioned Warhammer Crime earlier, would they be a good read to understand the atmosphere of a grimy no hope hive city for when I try to GM a 40k RPG?
Want to use that as a reason to read more
Yes
Defo
I heard that Imperium Maledictum is fun so sending the team to do some bullshit their boss doesn't want to in a hive sounds like a fun first mission lmao
I fw eagles a lot

Concerning the Schola Progenium, can a child just be... sent there while having a very much alive parent?
Could, say, a sector ruler send one of her kids over there for that sweet, sweet edumacation?
I'd assume there's a serious risk if they send off a nepobaby failson to a Schola that can't cut it
Ah, for the sake of homebrew stuff, it's less failson and more smarter/blank of two twins.
-# Dear daughter got that S-rank autism.
I only ask because all I see is 'orphan', 'orphans' and 'orphanese' all over the wikis.
Some nobles send their children to the Schola Progenium
I don't think Shira Calpurnia was an orphan
A sector ruler helping one of their kids that's better at cold hard violence instead of plotting and scheming would definitely work
Defo, only they might never come back heh
Jurgen might not be the best people person but he can aim that Melta like a pro and that's all that matters
Generally after Graduation you get sent to your posting in wherever
Could end up anywhere from the Damocles Gulf in the Eastern Fringe to the Calixis Sector
But assuming the schola is in the domain of the Sector Lord/Planetary Governor they might be able to pull some strings
Scholas I think are technically part of the "federal" class of organization like Arbites are but that just means you'd have to pay more as a bribe
Would you rather:
Fat Himbo Guardsman son?
Vanus Assassin Daughter?
My Lady shall haveth both.
Yeah true, but if its on my world maybe i could talk to the proctor general for a job oppurtunity and ask some of the abbots about things
Oh she's never seeing that daughter again
All assassins will be at the Temple
I'm sure a loyal and devout sector lord would pleased that their daughter went on to be an assassin instead of a failson they have to give a fake company to manage lmao
Indeed lmao
One is a distinction to have
A failson can quickly become a liability
Look at Pontius Glaw
Yeh, I assumed so.
But.
I am enjoying writing a small noble family of She is Her.
And the son. He's havin' a fuckin' blast.
Noiceee
The son having too much fun might result in some interesting things...
What was the quest in Rogue Trader with the scribe who fucked up some paperwork and tried to blame it on Abelard? I ended it with forcing him to confess and his whole family got snuffed out.
I forgor
Might be my frame of reference here lmao
But that seems apt
Ah... I will be hush-hush about his body count since his enlistment.
The one that's a little less important to Imperial success.
His mom is so cool though.
Interesting
Maybe he should have the men do a little gladiatorial fighting for his amusement ofc
It could be so very amusing
Most writing I've done is trying to imagine a funny reason various Chaos warbands would be angry with my Ork waaagh.
Hmmm
Word Bearers might hate them for vandalizing a ritual site with something like "LORGHAR WAS A ZOGGIN LOSER!"
Maybe they desecrated a sacred fane
Yeah
Thats
That about does it
Definitely have them smashing up a Slaaneshi cult's perfect art piece as a reason too lmao
Or stealing a bunch of skulls from a Khornate Warband
Stealing the most valuable and revered skull to use as a hood ornament on the boss' trukk sounds perfect
relic shield snow plow
If I knew how to kitbash properly I'd love improvised looted space marine armor on the boss and / or vehicles
Lord of Change telling the boss, Wazguts, things he shouldn't know because it's extra funny when he uses it on other Chaos worshippers
I could see him doing shit like this
Where's the one where he enslaves them, shoves a daemon in and unleashes them on their family while being caught saying "Read the WB trilogy before you speak to me"
Committed to lore and role...
Anyways another office day
And 4 days a week looming on the horizon now...
Sounds unpleasant
Messed up and evil
This is why Orks are scary
Another question.
If an Astartes chapter starts sticking Eldar soulstones to their armor like the elves themselves do, is that straight-up heresy or just the most scummy show of trophy-boasting?
If they hang it like one hangs skulls it might be fine
In the Deathwatch ttrpg there's a shield covered with them iirc, trophy stuff
It really pisses off the Eldar
It'll probably be taken as trophy, as long as they don't start wiring up the soulstones and all
Perfect.
Thanks, pals.
The Remembrance Shield is a Combat Shield fashioned with a number of large, deeply coloured jewels, taken from the Eldar of Craftworld Ulthwé to commemorate a Deathwatch victory over them in the Slinnar Drift Star Cluster. The shield must offend the Ulthwé Eldar greatly, for there have been numerous attacks over the intervening years apparently designed to seize the shield and kill the one who bears it. Eldar of all types will do everything they can to take it - though so far, all have failed.
It's pretty funny
Oh my Jesus.
I will now spread this ultimate ragebait tactic to my homebrew chapter pre-decimation.
Geez thats harsh
You can tell a space marine author wrote that lmao
Yeah like uh
a normal eldar strike team can easily go, kill the wearers and recover them lol
people really have no idea how badly eldar will decimate things to get soulstones back, especially Craftworlders

when it comes to soulstones they do not hold back, they woudl send an army to retrieve a shield adorned with them
even if the dude is alone
Correct yep.
But like
Deathwatch RPG books are filled with wank moments like this to sell the user the power fantasy.
Which is fine but theres a reason people usually find DW fans very obnoxious lol
haven't met a diehard deathwatch fan tbh
Whats it like for an eldar soul when theyre in the stone but cant get back to the others
Its basically like being trapped in a small cupboard limbo
23 years
Jesus what fucking part of the fandom have you been at lmao
What level of consciousness do they have
Like i said its just "limbo"
i live in a rural area in the middle of europe xD closest official GW store is 300km from me xD
they are kinda aware of stuff happening
I mean yeah it's in the Deathwatch TTRPG where you get to be ultima badass
but its like lucid dreaming
Hmm
the inofficial one closed down in 2010
you know that vibe
"is all this real, where am i, am i going to be safe?" etc
its pretty fucked lmao
Yeah alright that explains it 💀
it was also released in 2011 during that time
Id also compare it to like sleep paralysis but instead of not moving its like being trapped in a fishbowl
Also this yeah
Poor things
DW RPGs are like infamous for being wanky
i remmeber people being annoyed of DW fans as far back as like 2012 lol
i am thinkign of getting imperium maledictum
because the books like extremely wank their capabilities when DW fails about as much as they succeed in lore
Maledictum is fun
anybody here experience with it? cuz i am not sure if its enough to grab only the foundry modules or if i need the pdf too
Maledictum is peak
good to know it's peak i shall prey to the omnissiah then ^^
Remember, before you ever say "need to find PDFs" ALWAYS google first lol
if theres no results then yeah 
If nothing else I know of a place but you gotta get out the enigma decoder it's weird
I havent checked as my group uses foundry and i was not sure if we need the pdfs then xD
They're good to have on hand still
the entire dark heresy book being available on an archive website
Basically lol
Enigma decoder should be easy to get in these days
the ffg dw rpg i remember being by far the least interesting
It basically is yeah, a lot of people here have talked about it in the past
its just boring
We speaking in code now, if so I quite enjoy the ffg eote rpg
yeah there's a surprising amount of decent sw rpgs
correct decision
it's grounded in a satisfying way
The fact you can succeed on a roll and still get a critical fail is hilarious
DW can be interesting but it takes a bit more effort to get players into RPing and not just combat rolling nonstop
And leads to some great story moments
yeah but then you have to either rp a space marine or use the awful xp scaling for the other games
Like my players once were looking for a quick job to get some money in their downtime while they were waiting on ship repairs, so rolled for work and got like 5 successes but 1 critical fail. So I decided it was going to be a very high paying job but an incredibly embarrassing one
Yeah I've been using a 2.0 conversion instead of base mechanics
Way more busted but it's fun at least
also its one of the only ffg 40k rpgs where i cant play a tech priest
dont fucking tell me about tech marines that shit is blasphemy
A Nemodian hired them to carry a whole bunch of these barrels full of rotten fish guts up some stairs into a warehouse on the second floor, the players thinking the rough part was the smell and having to carry the heavy barrels up the stairs. So I was making them so checks to carry them and to avoid throwing up.
The real trick was that the ground of the warehouse on the second floor had been coated in lube, so the second they got up there they had to do checks to stay upright and proceeded to slip and slide their way across the floor
What does ffg mean?
Fish guts and their own vomit spraying everywhere
Fantasy Flight Games
Ahhhhh
Doesn't make sense to me but I'll believe it
Maledictum is c7 then?
Yeah Cubicle 7
The Nemodian then revealed that it was all part of a prank show that had all been filmed to broadcast on the extranet and they would be payed handsomely if they signed the release waver allowing it to be broadcast
their loyalty is split they cannot be trusted
Mildly evil
space marines already know too much about their sacred armaments as is
Dayum xD
If I remember rightly it was only two of the party who agreed to even carrying the fish barrels the others all left, so the two of them kept it secret and never told anyone what happened. Just split the money they got from signing the waver with the group and acted like the others were fools for skipping on an easy job.
How nice of them to split the money
hey what's with the red scorpions chapter
What about them? Obsessed with genetic purity racists
surprised I've never heard of it
Insane God-Emperor, Humanity and Codex purists too, they hate ogryns
they seem like they'd be the type of pfp thatd come in here and get banned a lot
cm?
Chapter Master
ah
The only dreadnaught one afaik
They're a fun bunch, all things considered
no
yea
no!
Another Badab Baddies w
badab?
badab
k
What with what caused the Red Corsairs to become a thing
Astral Claws didn't want to pay taxes, so Huron decided to just take shit and there was a civil war
I suspect anyone who titles themselves Tyrant of Badab might be the good guy but who am I to say
it seems my magic box is broken as it does not respond to investigative prompts by the servo skull
40k is a prank setting
This fandom is cooked when they dont know what the Badab War is anymore
never let these people cook
oh

never let people flanderize the lore
it sounds like space marine shit why should i care
it's fun
no way
Imperial Armour makes even space marines fun
Its written well, you annoying fuck

gonna rip off your legs
thats illegal
crucify their balls, if they have any
if they dont
crucify their tits
such is the way

🤔
Reasonable in this case
get your mangodorian junk out of here
mangoes? tahiti?

"no you don't get it the imperium is the good guys because every alternative is worse" https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Diasporex
all the aliens are evil trust /j
not the eldar
alright let me just clarify real quick
what the hell is wrong with you micah
there
What a thing to read
i put the /j in
LMFAO
Micah is wrong with Micah
Of course its Micah
what?
He scum fucker
fucking scumbag
i didn't hear that line
Stagecoach robbery
^
I'd completely forgotten despite knowing how much of a pos he is
The guy literally says "I dont wanna sleep in a cabin with d*rkies" so this is like bottom of the barrel
i think maybe it means something that dutch puts up with him
he's got a plan you see
I legit wonder myself
How dare you suggest dutch bad
LMAO
wonder what's up with dutch anyway
I'm losing faith that I will manage until tomorrow when I get to play Marathon again
seems like he was decent until that shit in blackwater or whatever that place was called
Nah he was always like this
thats what makes him a fascinating character
Uncle says it best, he wants to be an American King
Was that tahiti
He's a huge narcissist
I should also get the RDR1 remaster and play it because I can't recall shit
with us as his knights with a paper crown on his head
i mean he at least had his shit together enough to make plans that work
^
Not quite
if you rewatch you can really see he only manages thanks to Hosea
hes ALWAYS had shit ideas
yeah but that's post fuckup
wonder if he had syphilis or something
The music makes this much better than it should be
He was mask on in the beginniny
Lmao thanks
Also this yeah
Dutch's entire upbringing kinda showcases a lot of it
There's a point already in Horseshoe Overlook where he just yells out something like "you'll betray me one day"
Weird moment
^
Hes very much not "sane"-sane
he sees enemies in friends
and friends in enemies
its very fucked
ohhhh orthurrr
everyone has so much faith in the guy
orthurrr, moneh
and him and hosea definitely explored each others bodies some time in the past
sure why not
Yeah I bet you like to see that
Dutch is a creep too how he always goes for young women
^
his interaction with the camp women is eurgh
worst with O'Shea
fucking creep lmao
power reveals i guess
Dropped Grimshaw the instant she got too old for him, the fool
she looks so fucking good
the scars add to it
Black Belle vs Grimshaw milfoff who wins
older woman in a severe dress: yeah okay
older woman in a severe dress with a gun to my head: ALRIGHT
Belle is like a proper bruiser/fighter
Grimshaw is not violent unless you get that rise out of her then uh 💀
She's mostly nice at least
Little strict and old fashioned about how women should be but you can't wint them all
Ms. Grimshaw may get... mmmeh amounts of screen time...
But she's the only one in that camp one could always rely on aside from Arthur.
She is the GOAT.
That... is a very, very useful factoid.
Thanm you.
Yeah most camp interactions are like side-stuff but the performances are still very very good
theres like so many interactions people have never seen still lol
Yeah I'm taking extra long to just explore and near enough 100% the game and I've seen a bunch of camp interactions I've never seen before
RDR2 may have a few... nnnyeh moments of gameplay even beyond having the Rockstar formula.
But I love that dang ol' game so much.
Its GOTY for a reason tbh
I always put it off before i finally played it last year and had the biggest moment of "Oh my god... i get it now"
Say Drake. I hear you like em young
I clipped this whole interaction I'd never seen before it's so slimy I love it
Lenny shitting on Dutch's glazing over some pretty-talking author will always stick with me.
One of the top Lenny moments, he's a good character
Deviation.
I require a guardsmen expert.
What kind of Imperial vehicle dominates urban settings?
-# Minus... Baneblade. 'Cause I hear you DO NOT send tanks into a city.
The... Bastion Walkers maybe?
Airships?
-# My knowledge goes only as far as Dawn of War's Unification mod, I apologize.
Urban warfare is hell for any vehicle is the issue
~~Stormsword ~~
Lmao
I'd assume sentinels, chimeras, maybe thunderer
yeah that
I see, I see.
Hellhound would make sense, flamers are scary in urban enviroment
Just wondering what might help my homebrew regiment's... gimmick.
For sillies.
They've got a looot of grapnel equipment!
-# I played both Battlefield Hardline and The Finals twice each.
Reading lore instead of studying time.
This thing is funny, did someone try to make a king tiger variant
Imperials are so silly.
chimeras are so goofy
leman russ, chimeras and rhinos are pretty good id say
bigass tanks are funny on paper
but like every huge ass unit they're not practical in confined space
you do send tanks into cities though, for the simple reason that if you don't, then you're in trouble if the other guys sent tanks into the city
the humble tank when someone pops out a window with a rocket
tanks are more vulnerable in cities, but tanks are always vulnerable, that's why they don't send tanks in alone
and yet, grozny
Not that the Russian army is a particularly good example of tanks in an urban enviroment with infantry support
well russian tanks are ||dogshit||
Most correct statement today
the armata isnt even real
are we talking about irl tanks or warhammer tanks
I need to stop procrastinating and listening to Teto and actually do something
because I feel like both have very different purposes
russian tanks aren't good in warhammer either
I assume warhammer tanks aren't good in russia either
Armata seems as real as the Cheonma-2
-# Fucking Command Sentinel...
imperium tanks don't really work irl, like never mind fancy scifi technology or whatever the guns are just too big, there's no room for the ammo lol
Maybe the tanks will get a proportion upgrade one day like the infantry models
11 Barrels of Hell.
We can barely handle one--
warhammer tanks are very tall and have no suspension system at all
My favorite part is how much people wank the Leman Russ as something that would "dominate" modern tanks
one obstacle and the crew has their neck snapped, if the tank doesnt flip over
easy to dominate modern tanks when you run on make-believe
the closest to a leman russ we got IRL is the indiana jones modified Mk7 tank made from an excavator
then again it's a ficitonal tank
the real Mk7 was never used IIRC
tbh that tank in Crusade is VERY cool
yes
my brother painted his leman russ tanks like that
WHUDAFUCK, THIS GUY IS SO SILLY--
with a red chaos star instead of the arabic stop sign thing
It looks a bit like the Tog II
tog 2 is so beautiful
it's an excavator kitbashed as a Mk7
Who tf says this even in-universe the Imperium crews call it a bad tank in design. But not doctrine so its whatever
I swear Krieg had one of the most sensible looking tanks because it was just a KV-2 ripoff
They complain its too tall, too loud, yada yada
close enough
there is a tank that looks even more like the last crusade tank
kv-2
people were REALLY mad that excerpt you are referencing in Siege lol
oh you said that
I fucking love 40k tanks, they're all so silly
love the kv-2, stupid tank
Important clarification. Does the urban environment have to be preserved?
you should get familiar with the dumb shit russian tank designers got up to
sorry "soviet" tank designers
I am quite familiar with many different tanks
I do have a certain kind of fondness for 40k tanks, it's the kind of shit I make in that Sprocket game
I've been inside many and driven a few
Eh, I won't see any action
hope so for your sake
A wee bit.
Maybe?
Considering my dear ground forces are running/zipping about with their grapnel lines and the like.
You don't have a lottery system? We drew lots here when I was forced to show up
Wait--
I love Imperial tanks so much my homebrew sector capital and accompanying Guard regiments entire thing is tanks. They make them, hoard them. Every tank the Imperium ever made they knock around with. BILLIONS must make tank treads in the factory
I got a "free" number
No Finland just has a "everyone must take part" system but if you really REALLY don't feel like it you will find ways to get out of it
Fair enough
He's not Finnish he just says that. North Korean, actually
I'm talking about The Finals/Battlefield vibes.
Destroy everything!!
Denmark doesn't care as long as the quota is filled, the rest get to go
Yeah I've understood as much, same with Norway
Sweden has a slightly different system afaik
oh finland okay
I did kind of want to get into the dragoon regiment but I also didn't want to take part
you scared me for a minute there
i just lied my ass off at the draft and scooted on home
was still an egg at the time
valid
That's fine
You can just opt for community service here instead if you're selected
Finland's biggest worry is russia and they wont probably be invading for like at least the next 10-15 years after Ukraine.
and uh
the last time they tried didnt go so well
lmao
Leman Russ Demolishers
yeah there's community service here too if you're a pacifist
I took part mostly because I just said I'll either fly a jet or drive a tank and I got to drive a tank after failing the 3rd round of physical exams for the pilot school
zamn
Well also Finland is NATO now so they'd also get Article 5'd and get hit with a Gulf War style coalition
If I'd been assigned an artillery role like most I'd probably abandon the idea
Ill believe Article 5 when it happens
lmao
i WAS 6'6 at the time so some higher ranking dude took me aside and was like "hey are you sure? like we can get you in if you want" and there was a moment
If I'd drawn the short straw I'd have tried to get into one of those CV90 IFVs, might've been fun
I mean the Iraq war was the last time it was invoked and since then no nation-state been stupid enough to directly attack a NATO member on purpose
there's a timeline where i opted for a military career and i'm the most toxic rotten egg imaginable
unless I had to shoot someone it wouldn't be fun
dunno if y'all saw this gif making rounds a while back but it's mine
Yeah because Iraq was some no-name country nobody cared about and got bombed to shit, completely destabilized and ruined as every euro moved on with their day.
yeah i member
Finland is deeply unserious as always
Saw a few CV's they're pretty neat
I wanna believe in NATO, i really do. But like they really do not help themselves lol
first time seeing it, that's great, some war thunder shit
the two tanks after seeing the daemon engine rapidly approaching towards them wondering if they should move :
I know of a mtf who tried to do this and now they're a chronic alcoholic and post a lot of nato footage with music
Of the 5 listed instances of threatening to invoke Article 5, Turkey is two of them apparently
if the purpose of a system is what it does, then the purpose of nato is to make sure no african country ever recovers from colonialism
Its also never gonna happen tbh.
Both within months of each other in 2012 lole
our only aggressor is like Shitrael
and they'd only do it because "hamas was inside this playcare"
and NATO would make us talk it out then back to normal
I what’s the opinion on the new data slate
I hate the fact that we're in a military alliance with the US but the situation kinda drove us into it and I'd still probably take the chance of not being in it
I appear to have spilt sulphuric acid on my trousers
i'm still in my early 30s, i could still go the command line and make the worst mistake of my life
additionally, the US troops fucking suck
never too late to make the worst mistake of my life
I'd like to believe in NATO but we're getting nowhere with the USA the Europeans can be trusted, trust
what did they do
you shouldn't do that
I've been in 3 exercises with them and they always take massive losses / lose the encounter
LMAO
Shoutout to Epstein emailing his friends literally like "We should get some wars going to make profit for Israel"
BRUH

IDF Moment.
US army when they gotta fight an actual enemy force that isnt villagers with AKs
we could do joint task force training if we both sign up
I read some autobiography of a Danish soldier and he would not stop shitting on the US soldiers like most of them were low tier apes with endless resources to back them up
He emails the Rothschilds like "We need this Ukraine thing to get big, push for it" and also tells another friend they need to short everything and destroy the worlds economy because "The goyim will deal with the real world we'll be fine"
WHAT
in the first exercise I was with them, they literally drove their Strykers (8 wheeled gun carriers) on top of a hill and waited until they were shot down
the US is fully bought into its own military mythology, really they just haze and traumatize the fuck out of their soldiers
I mean Epstein was moving guns for countries back in the 20th century 💀
deeply inefficient and self-loathing military culture, they definitely managed to copy the spartans, just not the way they hoped
that mf is a confirmed CIA asset before
The US military is extremely lethal/strong yes
but they are only good for destroying and bulldozing
anything after that? Lol lmao
The burn holes look like those fashionable ripped jeans now, so it's fine
Just as well no ground forces are committed to Iran (yet)
their main strength is air superiority by far
theyve taken 4 confirmed casualties now
I think it's your skin we are concerned about 😅
warsh your pant 🫵
because like
we went from "we are NOT sending in troops" to them going "we will LIKELY send in troops"
they probably wanted to kidnap the leadership like they did with venezuela but they just fucking killed them all with missiles in the first volley
they have no fucking plan
I will lol if this turns into Trump's Vietnam and Iraq
Na I've breathed in so much of it that I'm completely immune
americans deadass will invade your country one time
oh my fucking god dude
cool anti-war president btw
then 10-20 years later will make a film about how depressed they are destabilizing a country
pissing my pant crying after i deliberately shot a bunch of kids
sometimes they even lie to make themselves look better too 💀
American Sniper Moment
I've been trying to remember anything about that movie since I thought about it a few days ago and I literally can't remember a single thing
Chris Kyle being killed by an unhinged vet is prob the most ironic way to die lmao
To be fair for the middle east top leadership was trying their hardest to make sure someone intelligent mever took the reins
Yeah I wonder who created that destability
they've lied to make themselves look worse! the dude from american sniper is a fucking asshole but he never shot kids!
how about that scene in some shitty melodrama where the soldier just HAS to kill an entire generation of arabs because they were looking at him in a mean manner
and it's played entirely seriously
LMFAO
Oh I was referring to us military leadership
FUCK IFORGOT THAT SCENE
They had dudes who could have made stable govts
oh, well ngl still applies 😭
They just fired them
Maybe the mideast should return to turkoid control things were mostly under control then smile
America destabilizing America is too in character
They wanted to use oil to help iraq rebuild (by giving them their oil fields)

I hate how I know what scene this is
A touching and sad scene, poor invader
Anyways best part is the holes in the epstein files from 2000-2002
bruh
There also was a pic of him with a group of individuals that shorted airline stocks
Which was in the files then removed
Now they saying Iran tried to kill Trump @.@
Shoutout to when he refers to hunting Black people in human hunts btw
I mean they did like 2 years ago
Iran is TWO MONTHS AWAY from creatinf COVID
yeah like
even before the files
i kept telling people
Or eating children
"do yo uhonestly think rich people dont hunt people no one will miss for sport"
people legit do not understand what hedonism is
YEP
Again, when you reach the maximum height of societal status you will get bored and you will do anything to get that high.
the fact that we'll never know 90% of the stuff in these is whats more harrowing
When you can buy anything you go for highs that you cant buy with money
Yeah like people legit think there isnt rich people that buy folks off the street to chop them up in basements
cannibalizing them is like the tip of the iceberg lol
the torture video...
YEP
i should be that rich so I could destroy the wine market just for fun
Real.
Emailing the Rothschilds about hunting people while joking about Banks
Shut down all comedy, its over
Every parody news site
god
The Onion hasn't been able to keep up for a long time anyways
Which 100% was an email to Netanyahu btw
All jokes aside
he realised all this was right, and still chose to support these freaks lol
Or he got tricked by the false opposition
he was right about the pedophiles controlling the country... that was on his camp all along
and he's now too deep to switch sides
There are no sides to switch to anyways
Wait wut, how come I didn't hear about that...
But also Iran having the capability to assassinate US president is...unexpected
As ever theres no Left or Right, its always been the Top vs the Ground lol
One of the mar a lago ones
Was an iranian
There was the shooter one, an iranian, and the ukraine guy
Irans whole thing is sponsoring Islamic terrorism, that bits not even propaganda its just true. That + getting into cyber crime in the last decade is how they push soft power
theres been some wild ideas of parachuting down Reza Pahlevi into Iran to replace the supreme leader and supposedly act in creating a transitional government to the Islamic republic 💀
Anyways back to 40k which primarch has the stinkiest farta other than mortarion
Im gonna be shocked if they dont try to put the Shah's back into power
since their rat descendants escaped after the revolution lol
Oh shit, we just got the 3rd loss of a ship to a submarine since WW2
Big news for nautical nerds
another Iranian one sunk?
IRIS Dena, confirmed to be torpedoed by a Nuclear Sub
like he seems to not even be that popular in Iran. And his dad's rule was anything but democratic
Yeah if its an Iranian one idc
their entire purpose is being blown up rn
so not really huge news imo

Yeah but people are stupid
they don't have any convenient democratic leaders to put into power in iran
they'll accept anyone into power lol
the other thing is also like
you cannot "change a regime" by bombing a country into submission lol
there's just no fucking coherent plan
YEP
so heres the thing. Khomenei being dead is how I found out Iran has a president...
Saddam and Gaddafi """worked""" (lol) because their ENTIRE personality/image was built around the country and interconnected to it
the reason iran was stockpiling weapons was to deter this exact scenario even
Tbf being torpedo'd is big. This also makes it the only currently commission warship besides the Constitution to actually get to sink an enemy warship. There hasnt been a submarine sinking a ship since the Falklands lole
Yeah i just dont care
the Iranian forces are just nothing rn
so this isnt really huge for me personally lol
They're gonna bomb so many supreme leaders that in a week they'll have to pick Rubio as the new Ayatollah
NOOOOOOOOOO
oh yeah reminds me
Rubio for some reason threatened us 🇹🇷 on twitter
LMAO
I know its empty words but i was like "Huh?"
Well neither were the Argentinians but you cant be picky about naval warfare news nowadays it doesnt get to happen much

supreme leader Marco Rubio...
Because Netanyahu is stirring shit saying Turkey is the biggest threat to Israel now because Israel is ontologically evil and no act against them, yada yada you know the words
oh fuck off
are you serious
where did he say this?
WE ARENT EVEN DONE WITH IRAN
HIGHKEY
I sincerely suspect the US were doing some (ironically) Soviet 1930s wishful thinking.
Like, "if we removed the leaders now, the locals will rapidly organise themselves into a new government to take over"
Which...even if said locals like you removing the leaders, they cannot magically organise overnight.
So anyway what dirt did mossad epstein have on trump for him to act this way
oh my god bruh
"Something something Syria"
i don't think you need to have anything on trump to control him rn, you just sort of vaguely control what reports get handed to him
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
can Netanyahu just get coup d'etat ed or somethin already
He already did one to get in power
He assasinated the previous pm
Guy is picking fights with everyone at this point. Tried to call China anti-Semetic...
(Not the puppet one the actual one)
his whole relationship with Epstein as shown in the files
Give me 2 Big Macs, 2 Large Fry, 2 large Diet Coke, and an HOUR alone with Trump and I can get him to glass Tel Aviv. I truly believe he is the easiest person to manipulate, look at Mamdani
the problem is they cant attack China but they can attack us 🇹🇷, the issue is Article 5 as we are a founding member of NATO
Mamdani is so fucking funny man
he knows you can compliment him and he'll do anything you ask lmao
By literally just smiling and being nice to him
YEAH I KNOW RIGHT
THATS THE FUNNY PART
like he isnt even being malicious its just
"oh hey man!"
LOOK AT THIS

trump likes confident men idk what to say
Im depressed knowing this fucker can say shit he likes and get away with it man
He has and always will
First bisexual president
Zionists got their dicks up in almost everyones ass
literal GSC/Chaos Cult tier shit
its insane
apparently mamdani's immediately going back on a bunch of promises now too
I wonder what Mamdani felt at the end of the day after having to pretend being nice to Trump to manipulate him
Mamdani lowkey a femme fatale
Israel wants the entire world weak and helpless. They hate NATO, America, the general "west". They just want to parasite off them but their end game is everyone in the world is a third world country but them
Pretend?
The hsidics are even ruining sopranoland
Holy shit man they really do get away with everything
Half expecting them to walk out to the podium one day and do "Who's on first" together
Theyre spreading like a plague, only like 5 more towns taken over and they have full sopranos coverage
Netanyahu's main support base
Trump's suddenly a bottom 💀
Who dont pay taxes or have to serve in the military
They're so Zionist they threaten a breakaway state in the West Bank because Israel isnt Zionist enough
With what army?

The State of Judea (Hebrew: מְדִינַת יְהוּדָה, romanized: Medīnat Yəhuda) is a proposed halachic state in the West Bank put forward by some members of the Israeli Israeli settlement movement. After the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) declared the existence of the State of Palestine in 1988, some settler activists (prima...
how queer
why is this too perfect 😭
I didn't vote for either of these, it's clearly rigged
correct
Readers choice was revealed
It’s the most abysmal dogshit books ever
I’m over reacting but
i dont think they actuallly read these
the most redditor books ever released
fuck ass awards lmao
Waoah.
White man books.
to be fair none of the 40k options are interesting
I could slap a buddy of mine with these books and he'd eat 'em up.
He is a Spa...
He's a Spugh--
