They really nailed the feel of the eldar imo, sometimes they can cook

storm jungle
#

100% yeah it was a great watch even with the choppy animation

vagrant fox
#

Yea it's a shame but it's the age of remasters. Surely they'll fix it up any day now

Niceeeeee is this the order they were releases i might just do it in this order. If this is how it was released

tough haven
#

Politicians if they were cool

Would this be a good order top to bottom starting with hammer

#

That last episode of Hammer & Bolter with ||Trazyn coming out of nowhere is actually so good lole||

storm jungle
#

Hammer & Bolter id say maybe watch here and there? Its an anthology with like seperate episodes that have nothing to do with each other

#

otherwise go nuts

storm jungle
#

just masterfully done

That Space Wolves one I have a guilty pleasure for and I have 0 idea why

#

Thanks

tough haven
#

I also liked the cybernetica datasmith one

#

but that also has orks so

heady rivet
#

I think most episodes are somewhat redeemable

storm jungle
#

the episodes are all good imo

#

the animation can just get choppy

final dagger
#

Nice its not just one animation. They really put some work into these.

# storm jungle the episodes are all good imo

I'll be bonest the first episode is the worst to open with. A decent chunk is meant to be an action sequence with choppy animation. So it sort of sets a bad feeling for the rest of the series. If it were the middle, I think I'd like it more in a weird way

tough haven
#

had great horror vibes in a non standard way

An shows how fucking awful working in one is

With the Vindicare and Callidus

storm jungle
#

Really? I really liked that one lol

#

i was gooning to the callidus so i guess i was distracted

#

😔

tough haven
#

I really like it from a storytelling perspective

#

but the action was iffy

#

but the ending was fucking awesome

storm jungle
#

Yeah agreed the plots save a lot of these episodes

#

I THINK the only episode id call shit is the space wolf one

#

where its just boring

#

idgaf about their trials lol

tough haven
#

we get it

#

aspirant trials are ridiculously brutal

#

whoda thunk

opaque coyote
#

Honestly yeah that just left a fucking awful impression

tough haven
#

Sorry I mean the wolf trials wolf wolf wolf, cant wait for the wolf aspirants to wolf kill the wolf monsters WOLF!!!!

LITERALLY

#

its just such a boring episode

I liked the GSC episode

opaque coyote
#

If only because it does depict an Imperium planet going through a Tyranid invasion pretty well

#

Also there's a couple of hints beforehand on what they actually are

#

Although I couldn't take the reveal of the Genestealer baby seriously

storm jungle
#

dude

#

the genestealer baby is SO cute

#

its like a funko pop

#

😭

#

the best part is thats its actual form

opaque coyote

I'm just imagining it telepathically going like

tough haven
#

Do hive fleets let genestealer infected people go like that? I thought they kinda ate them indiscriminately

opaque coyote
#

Generally not

#

But I think due to them being near escape the Hive mind was specifically like

#

"Nah let em cook"

final dagger
#

I just finished watching hammer and bolter episode 1 deaths hand. That was awesome 👌 👏 they got really great writers

storm jungle
#

Yeah warhammer studio writers COOK 🔥

opaque coyote
#

Overall Hammer and Bolter wasn't bad

#

But you can definitely feel the animators kinda panicking

#

Since even at best the animation is limited

#

I don't blame them

#

But that's probably why the best episodes don't have much fighting in them

final dagger
tough haven
#

Good

#

I love the mod for deadlock that plays this when silver ults

all things considered its a good song

just a little cringe with how it was used

#

is there an in universe reason for all the melee weapons in 40k or is it just rule of cool

paper haven
#

Sort of. Ranged weapons deal more damage the longer the fight lasts so there is a benefit to just rushing them when you have really good armor.

#

The scale is also very large, with many factions using hoards of melee units, so having a chainsword on hand for when things get close would be helpful.

#

Also, rule of cool

Oh I heard about the Curze suicide thing

Woman tries to commit suicide
Curze talks her out of it
Curze decides to make suicide publishable by flaying so no one attempts in the future

#

If you think about it, in the imperium,.suicide is just destruction of imperial property

This is them being mad at the night lords killteam for having the possessed guy

# sacred ginkgo Guh

Its just crazy how Night Lords never did anything wrong ever and were always morally good...surprisingly NobleBright for Warhammee

When will they figure out the average Night Lord is much closer to the murderhobos of Gendor Skraivok and Nakrid Thole

I'm guessing "night Lord dorks" are just massive edgelords?

fervent geode
#

Even Sev is a murderer first, last and always lmfao, what did he do when Curze decided to destroy their homeworld

jade holly

You think I could do a Renegade IH chapter where it’s just one guy but he has control over an entire factory making his own robot marines? loregryn

I’ll prob need to flesh the idea out more

sacred ginkgo
#

They aren't even that grimdark they just kill people scarily

fervent geode
jade holly
#

But this take on it is he’s the last surviving member of his chapter that was ambushed by a Xenos group. He barely clung to life before he found an abandoned factory and reawakened it to remake his chapter and lost brothers as complete machines

#

maybe I throw in daemon influence like it’s secretly whispering in his ear and corrupting the entire chapter

fervent geode
#

But I’m not the biggest expert on admech so eh

jade holly

Back to the drawing board

Wanting to replace what was lost

#

Thallax battle automatas for example are power armors for skulls and organs, they're similar to space marines armor in a way

arctic talon
#

Thallax aren't battle automata

solid horizon
#

Yeah but doesn't he like

arctic talon
#

They're not under the legio cybernetica

#

they're under the ordo reductor

solid horizon

#

They aren't labled as battle automata

#

What if he unknowingly makes a deal with Tzeentch in his grief as he labors away to remake his brothers and is given the knowledge to make his own living metal? Does that work out?

solid horizon
heady rivet
#

Granted they were most likely gonna get purged had the Heresy not happened but

arctic talon
#

the night lords were on the kill later list

#

we know the list was Night Lords, World Eaters, White Scars and Raven Guard at least

#

lol

arctic talon

#

Khan was loyal to the Emperor but was not a fan of the Imperium

solid horizon
#

Also where do you get all the armors

jade holly
#

I’d say Vasthorr but Vashtorr hates humanity

arctic talon
#

The Emperor had made plans to kill them in the future

jade holly
#

Or mortals

arctic talon
#

also the Mechanicus were on the purge list but this was known

solid horizon
#

Vashtorr is chill just dont try to outsmart him

heady rivet
arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

but like even more so lol

solid horizon
#

Remember guys, never try to bind vashtorr to an android

#

Anyways making new marines would imply having either a dedicated factory or a good pile of spare armors

#

Hence why it's more practical to make different machines

#

I guess if you make robotic marines the armor is purely decorative and symbolic

jade holly
#

Probably yeah

solid horizon
#

Making new mechanical marines is technically tedious but not impossible

jade holly
#

The main thing I want out of this is the army is all one guy commanding an entire ensemble of puppets. Deluding himself into thinking he’s fighting with his brothers again

#

but he’s nothing more than a King of Nothing

solid horizon
#

You could also imagine he abducts chapter members or/and uses armors of casualties

#

You could have him be allied with a dark magos who's playing into the IH's delusion

#

Tells him sweet lies about reviving his brothers or similar

#

I'm no expert but from what ive seen, astartes are fairly gullible

jade holly
#

If I want this to have any ground in lore, i need to flesh out the singular remaining member of the chapter

solid horizon
#

Yeah

jade holly
#

I wanna say an Iron Father but idk if successor chapters had them

Define what he's like, his moods and stuff

I can't wait for the new defiler to be released only to purchase an old one

Dawn of War nostalgia is too strong

#

Do you think surviving massive legions of daemons as a chaos space marine would be enough to grant you prince daemonhood ?

#

Despite divine offense ?

celest dome
#

Like not having pledged yourself and still getting DH ? Not rrally

solid horizon
#

Like gods would be like "Get a load of this guy, funny fella"

#

Can a warpsmith even get daemonhood ? I feel like it would make their craft much more clumsy to practice

celest dome
#

Chaos Gods aren't gonna give Deamon Hood to someone that doesn't pledge fealty to them

fervent geode
#

If you’re a chaos space marine you’ve essentially pledged yourself to them though in most cases

celest dome
#

Anyone know what fighting game had a character that was a big dude with a kid on his back ?

fervent geode
#

Even if you’re not big on the worship, after all they ascended Gendor

Black legions and all

fervent geode
#

But you can be ascended by all still iirc

#

Like Acerbus, Falk, Skraivok etc

celest dome
#

Are they DP of all 4 gods, or DP of unknown Domains ?

#

As Be'lakor is stated to be the last time they did it

If malice was still there he'd probably grant you daemonhood for offending other gods lol

Or die for the four mega satans

surreal nest

Also tbf your soul is damned no matter what you do

#

Well not really

#

Unless if you're a psyker

#

In which case, joining chaos actually might be better

surreal nest
#

I think I would rather be a chaos spawn than a servitor

opaque coyote
#

Ehhh

#

Basically the same thing honestly

#

Extreme pain
No control of your actions
Your body being unrecognizable

opaque coyote
#

You generally just get your soul eaten

surreal nest
#

Let me ponder

opaque coyote
#

If you're a normal person, then if you didn't worship the four mega Satans

#

Then you just quietly dissapate back into the warp

fervent geode
#

Your soul might still get eaten

opaque coyote
#

If you worship Chaos, your soul is eaten

#

But if you're a psyker. It's basically guaranteed no matter what

#

So might as well join Chaos

fervent geode
#

I’m pretty sure non Psyker imperials still get their souls eaten, almost happened in titandeath I think

fervent geode

Might have something to do with proximity in lightyears to the astronomican but I could also be completely wrong

opaque coyote
#

There's not even the slightest chance to dissipate. Your soul is too bright to hide

#

So unless if you're like

#

Alpha level or some shit

#

Just sell your soul to the dark gods

#

Might as well get drunk

Off of idk

Very expensive

Also very hard to level up

The Emperor had to make a deal with the Chaos Gods to get his bullshit powers

#

Or at least a boost

surreal nest
#

If I was a psyker I would send radio waves to everybody's head of my favorite vocal stimms

opaque coyote
#

If you think about it the Eldar kinda fucked over every Psyker in existence

#

Like IK that Slaanesh only eats Eldar souls as a guarantee

#

But like

#

Due to the warp being so chaotic, very few souls are gonna not be eaten

#

Thanks assholes

#

This type of shit is why the Emperor thought it would be a good idea to kill all the Xenos

Why hasnt the dark mechanicum greatly surpassed the imperium? It's said that they don't fear innovation and inventions like the mechanicus but they seem to be pretty much the same even after 10 thousand years. Why aren't they blowing the admech and imperium out of the water at this point with DAOT level stuff?

civic gale
#

I'm new to this shi 😭 moment

urban spire
#

yeah it's just a common bit of misinformation

civic gale
#

So every space marine weapon is just scaled up versions?

urban spire
#

pretty much, or the human version is scaled down

civic gale
#

Gotcha

urban spire
#

i don't know, basically nothing is new technology, and since it all existed before space marines did, it necessarily was originally scaled for humans

limpid granite

But they are also not a unified entity

vital ginkgo

Remember

fervent geode
#

Even they are working to innovate from the STC standard

limpid granite
#

The imperium rigourously tests every piece of new tech they make so it works without fault

fervent geode
#

Most of their innovations involve daemons and are for war anyway

vital ginkgo

#

Dark mechanicus experiments but they dint do quality testing

for some reason (dilara) it's common to exaggerate your emotions a lot in this channel specifically

#

it's very habit forming

It still takes months to years to get anywhere and you'll have to travel along warp routes

#

I don't know whats teleporting about that

urban spire

a bike is teleporting

civic gale

But not instantaneous right?

urban spire
#

getting into your car is teleporting to work

#

your car is a portal to the highway dimension which teleports you to costco

vital ginkgo
#

The point wasn't about teleportation, my question was why dont they just leave the settled galaxy? I used the word teleportation because it's a simple way to look at warp travel

cerulean trellis
urban spire
#

yeah i'm saying that's a misapprehension of how warp travel works

celest dome
urban spire

and specifically warp travel out of the eye of terror, which until very recently was interdicted by cadia

There are method to teleport without the Warp, but it's not widespread and able to do it on larger scales

you CAN slip by, but it takes resources

Also warp travel is inherently different as ther is time dilation happening.
Sometimes the ship is in the warp for hours and outside years go by, sometimes they are in for weeks and outside minutes have passed and sometimes they arrive at their target before they left theirnpoint of origin

urban spire
#

very few people have survived leaving the galaxy, most of them are necrons

#

Is this because the end of the galaxy/imperium is a psycic dead zone or something?

civic gale

# vital ginkgo Are there no risk takers in the galaxy?

Sure there are, but we don't know about them, and going outside of the Galaxy even if you planned on doing Generations ships, would still be quite dangerous, as Orks are supposedly in other galaxy already, and Tyranids also are out there

To quote

Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim darkness of the far future there is only war.

This is a lesson, a statement so vile and extreme it will be carried by word of mouth across the Damocles Gulf and still further afield. The message is clear enough – those who sought to take advantage of the Imperium will find themselves on the pyre, becoming part of humanity’s great war machine in a far more direct fashion than they intended. Cross the sovereign territory of Mankind at your peril. We have inhumanity to spare.

`A glint of gold far ahead led him onwards. The heaving landscapes of the warp obscured it often, but always he found it again. Sometimes, the ships got nearer to the guide in the storm, and Mephiston saw white wings beating tirelessly. An angel showed them the way.

There was no other beacon to follow. The Astronomican, the great guiding soul light of the Emperor, was invisible, obscured by the Rift slashing time and space in two. Without the Astronomican, the Navigators of the Bloodcaller had nothing to chart a course by. Their warp eyes were fixed therefore upon Mephiston, while those in the rest of the ships in the fleet followed the Bloodcaller.`
