Are Zahndrekh and Obyron lovers or is that left vague for fan interpretation?
Since there's no new models coming anytime soon
i was really hoping we'd get steel legion models but this animation is really telling me that there's nothing coming out in the near future lol
you just know that if GW was planning to sell new models they'd put them front and center in an animation
Wait is this the first time we get a canon voice for Yarrick?
do you count audiobooks
Eh?
Maybe?
I guess if the book counts as canon and the voice used for the character is in more than one book
Yeap, I'd be really surprised if they ever return anytime soon atp
Steel legion isn’t happening this edition lol
Ironic considering a lot of people associate the Kriegers with Nazis despite them literally being WORLD WAR 1 IN THE-
Maybe 12e lmao
I remember an old video I saw of someone getting upset at a ride in a park using a plane from WW2 Germany on it
And it pans over to show it’s the Red Baron’s plane

that might be because krieg fans are fucking awful too
With Kriegers basically being a mix of several countries. For the infantry in particular...
Helmet is a weird mix of a German Stahlhelm and French Adrain.
The Gas Mask is a mixture of British Box Respirator with some german features.
The Infantry uniform is the French WW1 uniform but not bright ass blue (which is probably why people don't notice).
The Lucius Pattern Lasgun no. 98 represents the French Hotchkiss Machine Gun with the "no. 98" part being reminscient of the Gwehr 98.
And finally the boots are also French.
Overall, it'd be more accurate for all of the Krieger's to have french accents.

Replace the shovel meme but with a Baguette and a glass of wine
Thank Emperor they didn’t use the red pants of the Fr*nch
If Kriegers had those the Steel Legion would still exist and they'd be niche garbage
Oh yeah also comparison between the Hotchkiss and the Lucius Pattern Lasgun.
You can see the similarities with the barrel.
something i noticed when it comes to fictional WW2 era equipment is people will often just look at the helmet of a uniform and end their observations there
Which is stupid
Because the Stahlhelm is really fucking prominent everywhere at many times
I mean there's a reason why they chose muted colors over this
WW1, Chinese Civil War 1 + 2, Chilean Army, WW2, Spanish Civil War etc
Doesn't really fit
Blue Krieg
Tbf Chinese Civil War was supplied by Germany
Yeah ofc
Even had the Nazis train soldiers there.
But they started making their own
i find it more prominent on the heavy stubber
Oh yrah i know
When are we getting WW2 themed troops based on the Smoking Snakes smh
but yeah krieg guns always have those heat fins
And the Chiang Kai Shek Rifle is literally a Kar98k
Comparison.
Still blue, just much more muted.
Almost Fr*nch
Does the Kriegsmen have any other leaders besides Drier?
Looks less stupid when it isn't BRIGHT
Dreir?
I like it for some reason
The horse guy
this art has such a narrow gas mask hose lol
like breathing through a straw
Bro was late to get up and got the faulty one

Do we have any models based on the Attack of the Dead Men?
idk what that is
Would be awesome but I don't think so
yes, it's a whole ass regiment
A battle between Russians and Germans in WW1. Russians were hit by a gas attack and they charged through it to attack the Germans
WW1 incident. The Battle of Osowiec Fortress
Basically, Germans gassed a castle the Russians were occupying with Mustard gas. The Germans walked forward with gas masks on, only to see a bunch of the soldiers still alive and attacking. Wearing bloody rags with scalding skin and committing a desperate counter charge.
They did it to hold off the Germans until reinforcements arrived
Due to them literally coughing up fragments of lung tissue and blood
with their organs dissolving
Along with said scalding skin.
They looked like zombies that came back to attack.
The Germans fled from the trench network in a mass panic and they got successfully driven off due to the sheer terror
I’m just imagining a Nurgle infested unit of Kriegsmen that are designed to have insane movement and charge but like 0 ranged and they are heavily volatile once in melee range
Yeah the Russians bloody rags were also piss soaked
Piss is the second best option to not die of mustard gas
Of course, second best is far from first AKA an actual gas mask
So kinda like this?
Lorewise what would a skitari bring to the group of rejects? To my understanding its not like they would outpower the ogryn or use psyker magicks?
that really just goes to show how bad of a chemical agent mustard gas is tbh
Yeah I can imagine they would actually be fast given the fact that they wouldn't feel tired.
Are we actually getting a Skitarii?
And not a Tech Priest?
a Skitarii is way to high up imo
Idk, I just see a lot of people saying they want a skitari/admech
Tbf there's still a good chance that you'll die regardless.
It's just a better chance than "You're basically fucked"
in the 1910's probably but these days with some antibiotics and your lungs pumped out you'd prob survive
And to think, the main thing used to make it was made as a way to make fertilizer
Notably, the aftermath of the Attack of the Deadmen basically only had a couple of survivors. The rest died because their organs were basically sludge
there's way worse chemical weapons developed since world war 1
Yeap
Stuff that kills with a whiff now
Years of development beforehand too iirc
You just die
Yeah, industrialization made new shiny toys that the nations wanted to use
Like Dreadnoughts
And lessons learned in colonial wars
you need a full chemical suit which is not easy to put on in time of an chemical attack
Tbf yeah that is true. Mustard Gas after WW1 was pretty much only deployed against people who cannot retaliate in kind.
Which saw very little battle cause no one wanted to damage theirs
Against the Boers, Hereros, Qing Dynasty
italy gassing the shit out if ethiopians lol
"But I need to save this potion for later" syndrome

Less that and “Shit wait this costs too much to break”
Sometimes the wind would change after gas deployment
Leading to uhh
Yknow
Right back at ya buckaroo
Although sadly enough, Mustard Gas's latest use was in 2015. Specifically by ISIS
this just goes to show that rules of war only apply when the enemy can return in kind btw
Which is quite fucked
Germany wanted Trench guns banned in the Great War as well tmk
italy still did it
Too true
USA moment
"Bro the white phosphorous is just for lighting up the area"
(and also like a lot of other countries tbf)
they still used flamethrowers all the way to vietnam
Yeah the funniest part is that the USA basically responded with "Yeah, only if you stop using mustard gas"
like possibly the most evil fucking weapon known to man
They were used officially to "burn foliage"
Of course... this depends on the definition of foliage
Leave it to humanity to find horrific ways to innovate on hurting each other
Why just kill a person when you can horrify the rest?

operation epic furry
lebanon going to be invaded soon
Trump sends his fursonas to fight Khamenei's Yaoi State
Trump begging like every semi-major country only to get like zero answer is fucking funny
ngl
The only answer is from South Korea who basically gave the most non-answer response ever
Lebanon always get the shit when other Mid East countries are fucked
Apparently bullying your allies for months makes them NOT want to help
Desperate af
Who fucking knew
Did he even say Thank You???
Article 5 doesn't even apply to Iran, it requires them to attack first.
nah the funniest part is how he just didn't fucking inform anybody beforehand so like even if everybody loved him, who tf would suddenly send their expensive naval vessels to go explode in mined waters?
At least with 9/11, you could use that as an excuse
"Yes, I would totally send my ships to a fucking Forever War."
Maybe a shitty excuse for Afghanistan
But Cheney was out for blood in Iraq
We all know this
So back to 40K before I go on a panic fueled existential freak out at 2am, is Armageddon the start to 11e but a 10e campaign?
Not in the files, all for the love of the game
the files we know of so far
Holden Bloodfeast is real, and his name is Dick Cheney
there's still so many unreleased
True
Wait WB is your pfp a DG? Or some WB with DG colors?
like i refuse to believe bush has nothing in the files
Oh that, I've been reading Death Guard lately, its good shit
I don't want to know what fucked up shit is behind those bars.
But I hope that it will get revealed soon.
Unlikely though.
Anyways, I am going to stop talking about this before I get an existential crisis at 10:48 PM
I like reading Death Guard books while lethargic, sick, bedridden and angry
Freaky
I like to imagine that the Death Guard fall asleep sometimes in the middle of a battle
Bc it's funny to imagine like a ominous figure towering over a guardsman only for a sudden
Honestly i bet some DG just radiate narcolepsy on other people
Anyways my pfp is Captain Malig Laestygon from HH Legions if you want the card
SNOOOORRRE
Is Horus Heresy Legions getting shut down soon like Warpforge?
They are the definition of a cartoon man eating a lot and patting their belly
And making a
"oueugh"
Noise
Nope just Warpforge
Never really got into Horus Legions, just played the campaign modes
Did you get your spine snapped

Ok so the Thousand Sons have a magic mechanic in the game
And Space Wolves have a special affect to not be able to be targeted by said magic abilities
And guess what buffed Russ does to his allied cards

That's a weird ability for them tbh
is it?
I feel like Imperial Fists fit that more given Dorn
space wolves curb stomping the magic egyptians is kinda their style
True
it's like their entire HH arc too
Space Wolves have what I call the ability to be
Smartness Immune
it’s even in lore tmk
The immense power of
"NUH UH"
Praetorian V Warmaster i guess
And he was acting Warmaster after Isstvan III
Bro was holding the Heresy together
Lowkey carrying that shit
So that makes sense
boring ass legion regardless
Facts
Daemon Engine Automata prob
Exactly
I honestly want to see the designs of the Daemon Primarchs now
Honestly I kinda wish for Lorgar to look not human asw
Not my primarch but the undiv ones
Although in what form idk
Maybe Daemonesque now?
Perturabo is the one I NEED to see
Necrotic Corpse in a beefed Logos coming soon hopefully
Lorgar i expect to be a head with a mane of fire surrounding it and a crown adorning his head
i was just reading a passage in the night lords omnibus where a space marine is just talking about how stupid the primarchs are and i was nodding my head so hard
guy was bitching about how kurze was a moron for killing himself
and how the demon primarchs are doing jack shit in the warp
Honestly thinking of him kinda looking like a statue.
A statue, glowing red in it's incandescence. The sigils on his head glowing with gold. He would think of himself as the equivalent of a Bodhisattva. An enlightened being in Mahayana Buddhism who, motivated by supreme compassion, delays entering nirvana to help all sentient beings achieve enlightenment
I want something akin to this. A focus on mouths and words all over his body
And its Four Noble Truths
Not transcendent enough imo, i'd like him more inhumane
i thought lorgar was still relatively unchanged
Last we saw him
Vox Daemonum
And he haven't seen him in a long while
Voice of Daemons
Here’s what I want
First of all, no eyes
I want him to be blinded by his zealotry
Literally letting Chaos guide him
Tbf I also agree with him looking more demonic (or daemonic ig) asw.
I just think it should be a mixture of divine and daemonic. A false prophet/antichrist type deal
Then make his armor etched with glowing words of chaotic and daemonic faith and guidance
And with his role as the head priest of chaos and essentially the Herald of Chaos itself, make his form have representing influence of all the Chaos gods
He should look the most corrupted
Oh yeah
still wild to think that bitch ass lorgar started the HH just because his daddy told him not to worship him
He should have a lot of eyes
He wanted truth this whole time
The Lorgar Leresy

He needs to see it
He failed the test
guy didn't even stick around for terra he just fucked off
Eyes everywhere but where the eyes actually are. That should remain blank.
Symbolizing both his "sight" and the fact that he has truly blinded himself.
But he has chaos, and they guide him to his truth. I think making him blind would be a better representation of the despair in it. He wants to witness truth but can never truly see it, only know it through the words of Chaos
literally nobody likes lorgar in the setting i swear
For he is the Word Bearer
Angron.
Oh yeah and have two gaping holes into the warp
Russ, Sanguinius, Horus, Magnus and Angron were his friends apparently, possibly Roboute and Malcador a long time ago
post HH i mean
There's no despair for him, the bastard won
Roboute definitely felt betrayed on some legel
I still think this is the best summary of the iron Warriors:
They don’t serve chaos because they want to. They serve Chaos because FUCK. YOU.
Not to mention so many UM have friendships with WB
Tbf like
I don't think any of the Chaos Primarchs after the HH have any allies beyond maybe their own respective Marines.
And even then, that's not guaranteed.
iron warriors serve themselves by using chaos
Luciel and Tchure
Alcaeus and that guy
Aethon and Sedd
i dont think they consider it serving anybody
But they are slaves
They're huffing copium basically.
ofc
Oh they want to, for the power that is
Everyone does that though
“What is my purpose?”
“You make my coffee machine work”
Yeah but the IW are second to only the Dark Mechanicus in terms of expertise
Hell the WB have a factory for it
Maybe
And the DM are second to Vashtorr
Still we invented Chaos Attack Drones
And Morty made the Plagueburst Crawler
He made a few others too iirc
"TERRA WAS PROMISED TO US 10,000 YEARS AGO!"
Cooped up in his Black Manse
Hadto
TERRA WAS PROMISED TO MY PRIMARCH 10000 YEARS AGO
Fair
Iron Warriors be like: When the blue collar workers quit working for you
Tbf Vashtorr is basically the Chaos God of Invention and Technology.
It's hard to outclass God of a concept
the galaxy was promised to the emperor 10 million years ago or smth
The universe was promised to the Necrons 65 million years ago
Especially when they were on the grind literally millions of years before the Dark Mechanicus
old ones promised the eldar they'd still have an empire
womp womp
Actually
Well they did have one the Aeldari just fucked up
Gooned too hard
I just find it funny that Vashtorr is the equivalent of like
An old MMO player that refuses to use new pay2win mechanics
Just like Davy Jones said:
“You were a horrible captain, but a captain nonetheless”
AKA dealing with mortals
Calas Typhon
He described him
And:
“Haven’t you been going around, referring to yourself as ‘Captain’ Jack Sparrow?”
im still pretty interested in the idea of the eldar empire which we have like no knowledge about
It was like the Drukhari
i wonder what a unified eldar empire looked like
before it turned to shit i mean
Hmmmm
i wonder if they were always assholes
They got worse slowly
The answer is yes
The Craftworlders are the remnants of their pre decline civilisation
I'd assume it a was a Long Fall
Same ngl
Those knife ears are so sensitively emotional. They were def assholes
Honestly I like to imagine a mix.
Since there was still a population that explicitly didn't like that shit.
The CW Eldar were basically Doomsday preppers and the Exodites are basically Amish.
I can imagine a good chunk of Eldar were normal but got their souls eaten anyways because they didn't prepare
Pardon my Necron superiority is showing
Munifience was once a Crone World called Eliathada
Seems very possible yeah
since this is dark age humanity era i'm assuming the whole galaxy was just a slightly less hostile place
Probably
I can imagine that
30% were the weirdos, 40% were normal, 30% are the other groups
For being only 10% of what remains of their population, there’s so many Aeldari still
Id say like 60% weirdo 30% normie to weirdo 10% exodite + CW
it's kinda interesting how craft worlds were just trade ships
All of the normies died because they ignored the Exodites and CW being like
"DON'T YOU SEE WHAT THEY'RE DOING? THEY'RE SUMMONING A FUCKING CHAOS GOD! WE HAVE TO PREPARE!"

never really intended to be permanent living locations
and now they're the last refuge of their species other than exodite worlds
So basically the MFS who were warning people about Trump back in 2016
it's kind of weird that the psyker race didnt see it coming
Tbf they did. That's why the CW Eldar prepared in the first place
They did
lol
not all
The majority of people just didn’t give a shit
most didnt
But I imagine that the weirdos didn't care because they were too busy gooning.
And it's worth noting that prophecy is uh
Very inaccurate in 40k

Not all pelple are super into Psyker stuff as eldar
But the seers knew
And they told people
No one listened
maybe they thought they'd create an eldar god of excess who would be on their side
So basically people but with global warming
Imagine creating a god
And several other disasters
We chained our gods up
The Necrons literally did this
And got enslaved by them
💀
And then we enslaved them back
They got their revenge though

lol
there's this probably retconned lore of a blade that was made to kill slaanesh while the god was still weak
I think that's the swords to summon Ynnead
very funny weapon idea
Unrelated to the crone swords
...
Oh come on that would've been a cool callback

If only Necron’s existed would Slaanesh die off?
Idk do Necrons goon
i meant the fact that slaanesh would be killable lol
Maybe, it’s unclear
It’s highly likely the chaos gods are self sustaining now
Tbf she almost got locked away.
An SM ruined that
After all im pretty sure the Gods in 40k are also the Gods in Fantasy/AoS
They could just leave
If everything died
Separate as far as we know.
Could be different parts of a bigger being
It’s likely fragments of some greater whole if they are the same
But yeah
Since slaanesh is fucking chained up rn
Wait ill pull something
In AoS
Someone asked Grombrindal lmao
It's like being banned on one server and being forced to play on another

im sure there's other galaxies to infest too unless the universe is 90% tyranids
Oh god i see it too
I mean they're the weirdos for looking smh
Freaky
It's definitely a cloud or something
But yeah it looks like a dick
True
Could've been a sneak
That's what im thinking
Maybe someone in the art room was feelin freaky
But probably not given that it's supposed to be a serious art piece
Where?

I cannot see it
Pelvic region has a dark chain going out of it/connecting to it
wolf is there any game that takes place in the crone worlds
it's such a good location for a rogue trader campaign
They are almost all in the eye of terror, so i doubt it, buuuut i really wanna know too tbh
No unfortunately, there’s one that shows up in rogue trader but that’s it
You don’t stay there very long either
damn
exactly it's like the best loot location
super dangerous so nobody goes there
but the loot must be the best in the galaxy
There is also a crazy trade for Chaos/Xeno Artifacts
Could make top dollar
it's literally eldar archeotech come to think about it
or kill you for it
Depends on the aeldar and you...
New tumblr update is fuckin ass what is this shit
i think most would just kill lol
Fair lmao
If they keep doing this I'll change nothing and still use the site every day I swear
this shit is like their most prized relics
Unless they cant without severe loss at least
Tbh the eldar already do crone world salvage operations
Very fast and limited
But they do them
kinda weird to me that we never got to know the eldar home world
if they even have one
but they didn't evolve right?
they were directly created to fight necrons
why would they have a home world
They did evolve
They got kidnapped and genetically modified
By the old ones
To serve as weapons
oh that's even more fucked up
Yeah
Looks the same to me except for the posts complaining that an update
The eldar have a not great view of the old ones lol
They appreciate that they were given all the technology and shit
But having your entire species forcibly conscripted and genetically modified is uh
💀
It’s unclear what made them desirable for genetic modification
Because eldar history that far back is not very well recorded
i just want to know the best loot location
imagine the shit that's on their home world
if a blade to kill a god is something they could just do
Down yonder Mars Labyrinths has quality loot just go get it
i feel like mars is mostly trash and you might find something good but mostly you'll get mauled to death
Plot twist: Its Terra
it's constantly explored by the red freaks
terra probably has a ton of stuff too but it's the same problem where you're just trying to find spots that havent already been explored before and isn't filled with creatures from the age of strife
Is terra the worst hive world to live on?
Probably
i'm sure it's a slight step higher than a hive being invaded by orks
They keep trying but they're chuds who can't face the horrors
these guys have the firepower to level entire planets on mars but they can't even clean out the basement
Good news for you the catacombs are mostly unexplored
lol
Comically high risk
99% of expeditions who go down never return
all mars has to do if it gets invaded again is unleash the horrors in the basement
Go down
almost die to endless tech horrors
see god
die
Well they don’t control them but if anyone gets bright ideas they die horrifically
You know it’s bad when daemonic stuff is considered the easy shit
Horrific daemon engines and daemonic scrap code is the less awful stuff
The default skin tone is grey. Like, clay grey
Its not ideal
i want to see a corrupted servitor factory that kidnaps tech priests and turns them into techno zombies
It gets funny when you run into undiscovered horror from the DAOT#123727 and it turns everyone’s organs inside out
I like that one shitty reddit post that tries to argue that Terra is 25% of humanity alone or something insane like that
Its Made in Abyss
Arkhan land is hilarious
He did one expedition with a massive army
Barely survived but came back with a ton of shit
Wasn’t enough and the greedy fuck went back for round 2
Land Raider man 🙏
there's a pretty dumb lore piece that claims terra's population to be in the quintillions or smth
They found a quarter of his mutilated corpse, part of his skull and his personal data log lol
It’s quadrillions
I wouldn’t call it dumb imo
But it’s def on the sillier side
It’s plausible
i dont think we share the same concept of scale
Terra is the biggest but its not so big its any notable percentage
All of Terra has been converted to hive
So I think it’s possible
Esp with all the pilgrims
For reference, thats more than Coruscant apparently
a quadrillion human beings is an unimaginable amount of people
Tbf courscant way under shoots
It’s like in the hundred millions only
lol
That being said Star Wars planets are generally lightly populated because travel in Star Wars is dirt cheap. So even the core world ecumenopoli would be the same
Eh good point
Also guys look it’s where hadron is from
Only forgeworld from the Warcom post that wasn’t all traitors during the heresy
A lot of planets in Star Wars are like one major settlement lole
And thats when Guilliman is among nobility on Terra btw, if I remember right
Yeah the nobles and the rich got grey skin mostly
lol
A few have normal skin tones
so that's why she's so bitter
she comes from a backwater planet
if we were to apply the most dense population of a country to (Macau) the full area of earth we would get a population of 1,12125081×10¹³
Yeah urdesh is a fucking backwater shithole by non slaved forgeworld standards lol
But hey they aren’t a slaved forgeworld
so if we'd have the resources to keep all of them alive, the population of terra isn't that wild
So they can be happy about that
Yeah that’s my logic
Most dense country irl
But across the whole planet
Especially since Terra’s oceans are all fucking hive now
Yeah the most dense country today which would probably be pretty much below average in the 41st millennium
Cover the whole planet in a layer of Kowloon and then add like 9 more layers and you're basically there for the numbers innit
except we know terra isn't 100% dense hab blocks because huge portions of it are used by nobility and the palace
that's a pretty big area
They live above the populace
But they still live in the super dense Hab structures
Just way above
it isn't but the average population density has to be many times denser than Macau today
answering to this
The palace takes up just the Himalayas which isn't such a big space relative to the rest of the planet
Terra is the settings only Ecumenopolis, this is true
The Himalayas are the only non-urbanized area
Bor’kan or something
Sounds like they should fix it then
Do not let the earth caste cook
Unattended
They will start building the torment nexus
i can only think of star wars where an ecumenopolis isn't treated like the shithole it would inevitably be
every other setting i know rightfully shits on the idea
even foundation which probably was the first sci fi book to use the idea
It’s Sa’cea
Which is slowly becoming a shithole
The tau on it live comparably worse lives and the earth caste keep building their stupid fucking hive structures lol
Less luxury products, less food and water
More cramped conditions
But hey, the earth caste are happy and they’re really good at urban warfare
it's probably still better than a human hive world
It’s explicitly better
And cleaner
Just way worse then any other developed tau empire world
I don't want to be at work I think I'm going to nailgun someone
think about the wkuk nailgun skit
You mean the NAAAAAAAAAILGUUUUN
How did the chaos gods benefit from making the primarchs demon princes? Why not keep them as non demon servants like kharn, typhus, lucius and so on?
Bind them further to their essence, make them able to command Deamons when needed, inspire CSM toward Deamonprincehood
They can control daemons easier, whereas the others are more point in the right direction
So Lorgar turned Angron, who only ever wanted to be free, into Khorne’s slave
I would prefer not to
Cats are ratchet creatures
all cats are my precious friends
What
Does the son long for the destruction of Israel?
Completely apathetic, mom is just a frantic Zionist

Banger joke in here
i don't get it
but i'm glad to see that thing in game finally
and ppl were saying it was a spaceship
Looks like equivalent to a hulk lol
no, the objective laser thing
that looks like some kind of claw
that thing leaked back around launch
Restart steam
I hate the unemployed I have class today I cant stand these NEETs that get to play
I gotta go in 2 hours man
Sucks to suck, I got today off because it's St Patricks day
weirdo
I will beat the allegations
I'm going home in 45 minutes to play Darktide and plant evidence so you'll never beat the allegations
Just you wait buddy I will beat your ass in the court of public opinion
Woman looker 🫵 oogler even
IT WAS FOR A REFERENCE IMAGE
The comm is coming along nicely btw
Comes out in an hour so dw
Hour and 30 minutes
Does the update add anything good?
Waking up, update Tides, back to bed.
Nah just looked it all sucks. Negative review
They killed scum
Damn
refund scum and arbites
Will they refund the thousands I've spent in the commissary?
Whale
Cool hats
I've spent a micro islands worth of gdp in it to buy every athonian tunnel rat and steel legion outfit

Maybe pacific micro nation is better
W/e a lie to workshop for later
I'm not sure about Elemental Council so far, I'm not vibing with it
This would get Shadow so fucking riled up unironically
So some changes suck, but what about Expedition?
❤️
So the emperor is the one in charge
Well he used to be but is more of a symbolic person at this point
He officially is still the leader but in practice he isn't
Exactly
To be honest he's probably clinically dead
Officially now, Guilliman is the one in charge
The Emperor is more of a figure + doing things outside of the material space (like miracles)
Such as reviving saints, talking to Guilliman and saving him
No
He's talked to Guilliman
Gullible man should have died
He is still alive, just unable to use his physical body
He has been doing shit from the Immaterium since he was put on the throne
The Emperor is alive, bit 10k years of Throne have made him less than what he was. He's more of a conciousness than a person
Is he technically alive. Is kinda hooked up to the warp now right ? Its very wicked when starting to looking into warhammer
That's why miracles such as the revival of Saints happens
He is alive but unable to do anything with his real body
Yk for a man that preached atheism like him.he was rather godly
Plus his mind is shattered into billions of pieces
The Emperor is alive, just on life-support and unable to act directly besides a few feats of Psychic will. Worship of him has ironically made him ascend to actual Godhood
Interesting
Do we worship him ?
If we're keeping track, Guilliman is Lord Commander but is currently micro-managing the Indomitus crusade. The High Lords are running the day-to-day still

He's alive but like, alive in the sense of basically your organs and brain still being active and not so in conscious sense, he's not able to.use his physical body
Unfortunately yes.
Even though that's not what he wanted
Now the real question is he bad or good? Or just misunderstood
Well I mean
If the Imperium kills a Xeno, is the Imperium evil?
The Xeno is evil for being weak.
They are both evil for being alive.
Im new to warhammer if you cant tell lol. I been researching i actually found one of the best intros video ever this one
Warhammer 40K has incredible lore that is complicated and vast, but it can be a little overwhelming for new people coming into the hobby. In this video, I break down the basics of the Warhammer Lore for beginners. This is essentially the story of the rise of the Imperium and the Emperor of Mankind!
Check out our streams here: @TheDenofNerdsLIVE...
-
he preached xenophobia
-
he wanted to destroy religion (tho one could argue that it was justified because he wanted to weaken the warp which was a existential threat)
-
he basically told humanity to do mass genocide campaigns against aliens
Just to.name 3 things
No no no, there's only one good Loretuber. https://youtube.com/@arbitorian
What else you gonna do in lockdown but start talking to a camera? I make videos about WARHAMMER - mostly easy to access videos that introduce the lore of the universe to new players, or delve into little-known corners for the veterans. Modelling tips, deep dives into the 40k background and (hopefully) interesting looks at how things got that way...
Avoid all others
Oh and he was a supremacist
Dude he sounds fucking awesome

I look at it.
He is bad and misunderstood
Ian is actually the only good Loretuber because he's not pulling shit out his ass, gives some meta history too, and actually quotes sources
Also importantly: Actually knows the lore
Every other loretuber is quoting memes and skimming fandom wiki
I will check him out. If I want to get into warhammer tv where should I start
I think the emporer was needed for the survival of humanity but id say at the end of the day he was definitely a bad guy but still kinda good in a sense?
Good in the sense that he cared about the survival of humanity
They're all pretty much self-containes stories
Dw about it
I know that hahaha
so dosent matter which ones to watch?
Its like 6 $ for warhammer tv thats very cheap these days
Na fuck that
Not at all, off the top of my head literally 100% of them are standalone stories
Hammer and Bolter talks aboht Yarrick one time but like thats it
Thanks im gonna subscribe to ian
I want to get into the table top but that seems like such a expensive hobby, I grew up playing DND in high school so like, would it be worth it?
I have a suggestion.
deffo watch some vids on whats it actually like before committing so that you dont get into debt lol
Honestly when it comes to hobbies miniatures are in the cheaper side
Is it time to be a larper and only read the books and play the games? 
There is another
Yeah but I have zero respect for the High Lords
The Administratum just audited you
I have less so much interest in miniatures as I do in table top games, Warhammers setting itself, and strategy games
I'm already a chaos worshipper/renegade supremacist, I've been hated by them
What do you mean?
NECROMUNDA
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
More like a orc wearing necron metal as paint
Necromunda is a narrative-driven skirmish game about gang warfare on the titular Imperial Hive World. Its insanely cheap, insanely fun. The price of one fully-ready-to-play gang is the same as a single unit for 40k. Its also the in-house Old Boys Club of GW, so it consistently gets the best art, minis, and writing team. Darktide has actually taken a lot from Necromunda from cosmetics to even terrain pieces. If you liked D&D, every member of your gang isnt just a generic face but has their own name and fighter profile
See here
And Necromunda the planet has the most lore of any singular planet, so its easy to fall in love with the setting
Come play Kill Team its fun and less expensive than 40k, but ill also say munda is good
Kill Team is actually more expensive
No, you see i buy 2 kts and volkus and play npo missions until bored
How much did that cost me?
I forgot
it's cheaper because i forgot how much i paid
Yes
Don't trust their Necromunda lies
seems legit
I havent played munda nor interacted with it outside watching videos simply because there's no fucking munda stuff around here
SE Asia problem i guess
don't touch me pervert unless it's gachi
Midmunda fans try not talking about their mid setting
I could go for like 20 bottles of soju right now
Why do you pee poop
I emulate Jim E. Brown is why
Are the NPO missions actually fun solo?
Ive never tried but I really should
They are yeah
Its been a while but it was entertaining and you can play around with the scenarios
Amazing
I don't think Hadron moisturises
Does Cawl moisturize
Considering she can probably rejuve, she's prob not that old and did this to herself
Doesn't she say she's old as fuck in game
200+
Ah so she's still young
Has no care for her human skin
He has nice hands tho
Flesh is weak or summ
lubricate
Lmao
Some artworks I've seen of him makes his human bity parts still look remotely fresh
do you think some mechanicus get socially ostracized because their machine bits are annoying or squeak too much
I have to imagine some of them are like walking cadillacs with a loud stereo and annoying engine
Yes
Because that would mean theyre not properly taking care of the machine
So they would be looked down upon their mistreat of its machine spirit
Probably, imagine Sigma-Kestral making annoying ass squeak noises and shit at the conclave no one's talking to him
would they also be looked down upon if they just had stupid modifications like a fishing rod arm
He looks fresh for a 10k year old ig lmao
Defo lmao
beautiful
Not his original face btw
Yeah
local mechanicus has a custom catheter so he can watch burnt peanut 24/7
But uh
Its like if a guy went trough surgery to install a spinny hat on his head
Everyones gonna look at him and be like
Its sort of his body
Why would you do that
Iirc
Just wear an hat
The soda sippy cap
But oil
Magos with two selfie stick arms
I mean for 10k I'd think he'd look like old Emps face on the golden throne
love the analogy but we are not going to disrespect surgically implanted rainbow spinny hats in front of me that's my goal
He looks good there
He did some shit to himself
Like jerk ssid uh
Cawl goes through human bodies quicker than some people their underwear
Its not his og face
If that's your life goal I pity you 
Am I wrong
Now you see id love this and id get into this but like, do ppl actually play it however.
Yeah
Yeah they do
Midmunda has a good playerbase
Its prob the 4th/5th biggest system
no but consider the damage done to my whimsy and smile
Makes sense
Freaky - Eidolon
I wish Eidolon had died
Wdym system? What are rhe other systems? What is a system?
Game systems
System is a solar system like ours
Like 40k, Kill Team, Munda, The Old World, Age of Sigmas, 30k, Bloodbowl

Oh lmao
why is it nurgle
We are sending blessings your way🙏
It lacks.... green
Lacks mold
Eat for Nurg holy blessing
I'm not
This will maximise the blessing🙏
40k is the sci fi one, munda is the street one, old world is during the chorus haresy, age of sigma is the fantasy one, 30k is 40k but younger, and I do not know what munda or kill team is
flash photography pleases nurgle
Not really uh
Old world is the prequel of Age of Sigmar sort of
Old World is Warhammer Fantasy
The Old World yknow
if i get sick from this im suing gw
It doesn't matter which ones which
40k is best because space marines
Kill Team is 40k but based sigmas fighting in teams of 5 elite sigma teams
Horus horsey
30k is Horus Horsey
they cant all be sigma team
Why is there 2 Warhammer fantasy settings?
Munda is like chicago
Yeah but 30k doesn't have tyranids
But it's second place in my heart because its space marine focused
there is 1 warhammer fantasy setting
Trvth spoken
And fantasy was like dying of heart failure
So they had to pull out the life support and do age of sigma
40k started as a joke. its still a joke.
Which has been much more successful
Tyranids makes 40k come out on top
What?
Skirmish game
Lies
5 v 5
It's smaller scale 40k games
Yeah basically
Kill Team means tabletops are fought in small teams and not armies
40k is played with like 100 dudes on the board, Kill Team has 12
Really smaller scale
10 usually
But ueah
Its mini
But the best game is Adeptus Titanicus of course
Adeptus Titanicus is good because 1st edition had Imperator titans have jump packs

Titanicus would be cool if i could handle anything bigger than a wardog
No it's good because it's actually the best game system GW has come up with
Thats what she said^2
I have no idea because the biggest thing i have is a wardog, but youve intrigued me and ill look into it
Thankies
Dude there was a big ass ant the size of my fucking thumb going up my arm and I didnt see it before it almost bit me
Holy shit
Emperor's Children Arc
AT is played with smaller 8mm scale titans, not the big 32mm scale ones
Really?
40k is the sci fi one, 30k.is the one during horus heresy, munda is the street one that takes place on one.planet and is mainly skirmish gameplay, age of sigma is the ??? One, old world is the prequel to sigma, kill team is a 5 v 5 typa game, and what is bloodbowl
Huh
Oh
well there are madmen who play it on a tennis field sized maps with the normal titans but that's a whole other ordeal
the game system is designed around the small scale stuff
Thats what ive seen before
Ah so like, XCOM
Bloodbowl is sport game

The small scale stuff sounds alot more manageabke
I suppose yeah
40k is not fantasy
I meant sci fi
40k is first best 
that's a 8mm scale AT Knight next to a 32mm space marine
Tf lmao
Lil guy
here are the titans next to a knight
Oh yeah ive seen these bastards
Rlly?
Thats actually a 32mm titan next to a real sized Tyberos Red Wake


So like.unironically, did i get most of this right?
American football or some shit
american football if it were cool
American football but if brits (orks) were playing it instead of americans
40k terrain…for what…
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/cuxra3ym/the-rumour-engine-17th-of-march/
Hmm
random terrain piece on a diorama base for something larger
Whose feet?????
The guy went to the rock that turns you into feet
Come to think of it, could be HH
I am reminded of the supposed statues that exist on Terra of the Primarchs or something…
Then again could be Armageddon or 11th edition stuff.
Don't think we've ever had any rumour engine stuff for Heresy but it could be the first
though the wing motifs weren't as prevalent during the heresy as they're in 40k
has anyone tried the new darktide game mode
Watch the reason there are no Steel Legion on the new Armaggedon cinematic is because they all died during the initial wave of orks and now only Cadia and Kriegs are there
yea it's cool
