Only things I know Something Awful for are for Brigador and whatever tf was up with Lowtax

Da Red Gobbo has to be based on Derek 'Red Robbo' Robinson from more or less the same time period
dont know why i wasnt in this server already


Several
Simply too many
unsurprisingly
Hm
unseriously
Kpop Demon Hunters NUKED my spotify wrapped. Spotify thinks I am a woman in her mid 20s, a gay man from New York, and a methhead
elon musk emulating the life and downfall of Lowtax has been pretty baffling to me
Does Khorne hate invertebrates because they don't have skulls?
My spotify thinks that im a child
everything has a skull one way or another
y
just because I heard all of the movie songs
Khorne abhors the humble slug.
Yeah I think the other music I listen to balances it out so its 50% girlypop and 50% 70s metal
Jellyfish.
Mostly just water they don't matter
Feather star.
My friend got a mental age of like 89 because he is unc
Not even sure what my spotify thinks of me

damn i really did listen to a lot of kmfdm last year?
My spotify doesnt even try anymore
I think I was top 0.01% for Powerwolf in 2024
Or something along that line
Nurgle loves the slug, despite its sagely and nonviolent nature.
Ill play for you someday

I haven't heard kmfdm in ten hundred years
Oh right i just had a bunch of kmfdm songs playing while i was grinding in warframe
probably this year my spotify will be 70s/80s Rock/Metal and Pop
Dog I cannot play Warframe I've pavlovd myself into getting sleepy when I play it I think
you know what that means right
I need to buy a Cawdor gang...
you need to be torn into pieces by a swarm of rare horned rhino beetles
But why tho
I mean thats the kind of thing to happen to a Cawdor
just feels right
fine i will google cawdor and look at their models
update they look sick
Unfortunate
BASED lole
idk man some slugs do some fucked up shit
So aha you're inrerested, are you?
I refer to the humble garden slug but okay.
same shit
agreed.
And also this giant thing.
Yeah slug
harsh but fair
what does this image even begin to represent
Wait I gotta DM you an even worse tweet
Fallout New Vegas.
X FILES MENTIONED
God damn now I'm thinking of that opening jingle again...

Are there any space marine chapters that are actually atheist? Chapters like Ultramarines or Imperial Fists claim to be but are clearly very religious. To the point that it seems like the only difference between the average Chapter's cult and the ecclesiarchy is the actual word "god".
They are atheist though. They just hype the Emperor as just uber badass
Not a God
More like atheist in name only. I mean an actual atheist chapter
One that isn't religious
That died with the emperor sir
I see
How do the BTs feel about navigators
ghur
Recently GW noticed the weird contradiction and so they seemed to have written Grey Knights, Astropaths and Navigators as "bigot's exceptions" in the BT mindset
It's more like "Still hate psykers EXCEPT these ones we tolerate because they are around by grace of Emperor etc."
And literally essential if you want to get anywhere lmfao
Do the chaos gods ever gift or show favor to people who aren't their followers? Like if someone kills a lot of people will khorne ever bless them in any way or does the person have to be explicitly doing it for that god in order for a blessing to be received?
They can certainly manipulate non-followers with twists of fate
huh
OH
sorrya uto mod
i was like "huh"
keyboard spam accidentally did a slur ;-;
Honestly a part of me wants a gag where like Conquest was sent to attack Earth
He firstly goes to Urath
And is like
"Fuck this is the wrong place-"
And that's why he only appears after the Invincible War

This may have happened to Doombreed
Also
I've been wanting to play one of the 40K TTRPGs but the problem is I have zero people to play with.
This is naturally an issue, because how are you supposed to play a TTRPG without a few people? Doing a TTRPG is not only hideously impractical but also lonely and sad.
Question, does every warp traveling ship in a fleet require a navigator or no
Short warp jumps don’t need it
That’s how the T’au and short range commercial and scavenging vessels deal with it
Otherwise without being Chaos and having a sorcerer do it, you need a navigator to chart the warp
In my D&D group I'm the only one who yearns for the stars.

rodent
Is Mike Brooks a good author @storm jungle I feel like you said you liked one of his books
Is he the gay guy?
I'm thinking about reading Rite of Passage sometime
ugh, even fictional bigotry pisses me off
"hurr durr mutant bad" GO IN THE WARP AND DIE.
why
father
if your fictional setting filled with different races and subraces, mutations and shit like that WITHOUT the existence of racism then its just silly
frankly its not even that pissing me off its just reminding me too much of my dad lmao
I dunno about turning into a daemon prince but corruption isn't always consentual unless you're Lieutenant Titus I guess
Which is to say they can do that yeah
Yeah its really more of an emotional thing I'm not saying it shouldnt be present I mean it just gets on my nerves. I hate arrogance.
My dad is like a black supremacist so.
i mean its meant to get on your nerves as well
No, you gotta be pledged to them already to receive a chaos boon
if it does it means good writing
oof
Again I know! It's 40k, of course its going to be full of bigoted douche bags!
It still baffles me as to how people think that ideology doesn’t exist or when they act surprised when hearing about it
Literally anyone can be racist for any given reason lol
Exactly
I once saw these chuds on reddit (no surprise there) trying to argue that racism doesn’t count if its not institutional, which led into their main point about how racism or any other form of discrimination against non minorities doesn’t exist
Actually mind boggling
Thats the defintion of racism in sociology
As oppressing a group with institutional power, if we define racism as solely that definition, no, Black people are incapable of being racist.
But defintions evolve and racism now means racial stereotyping prejudice, and other things etc.
It's still braindead
and lets racist people get away with shit
Stereotypes like "if you dont play basket ball, you're not black" can be said by black people. My mother does it all the time. Shes very racist 💀
Kind of difficult to word this sort of thing since this convo is seldomly had, unfortunately
No, you did a great job at describing it
And I agree
Well said
It may be very circumstantial, but you need not choose chaos for chaos to choose you
Oh right I forgot about the soul drinkers lol
What an unfortunate fate for that chapter
There’s also Arkio from the Blood Angel Omnibus
Suffered a similar fate
And Gallus Herodicus
The Gods simply decided to fuck them over and “bless” them
For context this was under a video where a young kid was talking about liking the idea of killing after watching some violent movie on tv
Never ceases to amaze me how ignorant these people are
.... anyone who uses the word "liberal" unironically when referring to any person showing any amount of education and/or leftist beliefs
World is instantly moderately better
🤯
I forgot we had a fed in chat for a second
Maturity truly does not come with age
Just as skill doesn't come with levels... heh.. 
I just had a heart attack
Remember everyone, their vote counts as much as ours 💀
Apparently LGS preorders went live and I thought I missed out on the main preorders

What.
"Here's dante" 
I legit sometimes thought that some people shouldn't be allowed to vote if they can't get past particular criteria of literacy like there needs to be a standard
oih my god ita subreddit of exactly just fucking that

OH MY GOD BRO THIS IS A FUCKING GOLDMINE
I don't use Reddit but I might have to start...
dont do that with your sanity
oh my god lol its like Kitchencels but for 40 minis
its any mini not only 40k
a legitimate way of saying all of this
meth and weed subreddits butmeth is way more hilarious
insanely hilarious to me
Pretty dante though
i know, I always know
The most chuddish way to describe a breakup possible i think
Ok but the coloring on this avatar of Khaine is pretty good
The helm always makes me think Khorne
I wonder if they were aware of that when it was made
There were a few weird moments in WHFB where Khorne and Khaine were the same god but that’s been retconned, could explain the similar design though
Whats a good book on Machine spirits
Or well one where theyre really apparent
like good books as an introduction to the admech
i really should read lex more because ive been stuck reading the navi one for a while now.
Theres one specific about Titans and how a Princeps is trained and commune with a titan basically
What do chaos worshippers expect for themselves in the afterlife?
My younger brother who im taking with me says he wants to be death guard with a chaos knight
Do i throw him out a window?
GLAZER
Please do not project onto me what you do to ponys when you dream about them

Oh

"Sike, thats the wrong numba" ah roast
Me when I obtain two books: I now have two books.
Actually
I have been reminded I possess The Nightlords Omnibus on my computer
This is murdering me
Its like
Like
Insane how quickly my smile faded
After you said that
Most know they are going to hell
owned
By that I mean their souls are getting devoured
And that means they cease to exist?
Chaos Knights are sigma as fuck
Yes
Hmm
You can throw soap at him for the other one though
If their soul gets trapped they can be tortured forever, see Necare
By that was a Xeno Soul with properties unlike humanity so whatever
Are death guard also cool?
Yes
With a caveat
ye
So long
No DG player will come as close to Nurglite Greatness
Omg
A true nurgle follower
Unban him
Khorne followers should follow the example ajd beat the shit out of their opponents
Ts guy feeding the Plaguefather early
Dude thats like short at best
homie does not read greentexts
I bet you don't even know about the shotgun incident

(No death involved)
or the cursed ramen
You're better off if you don't.
Explain
Counter offer: Don't.
my favorite is the one where a guy poops back and forth
I won't dw
Explain
Wdym by that
Nurgle grows
Dude I wanna hear about it
That story was entertaining
@midnight dragon dms
Of course
what the fuck andrew
Should tzeetch followers start practice witchcraft?
Blessed paint
Andrew got that Nurgle in him
Prob gonna be a daemon prince soon
Nah they should start scamming ppl
Like making crypto scams
Tzeentchcoin
What would slaneesh fans do

bdsm dungeon but they dont respect the rules 💀
All slaneesh fans are whores
bit of a blanket statement dont ya think
Wdym
I love Slaanesh and their concept and Im hardly whore-ish
Slaanesh is about excess in all forms, not just sex you dingus
Yeah obviously
And striving for impossible perfection in all fields
Omg can't I just say whatever I want without getting critism or a bunch of ppl saying "but im not like thaaaat"
No you will suffer our "Nuh uh" and "erm, actually..." moments
anyone else slow asf when it comes to reading
I have a Warhammer book that I read 1 page of every couple months
so, is vulkan still nowhere to be seen?
Yes, he literally said he hates the imperium during the war of the beast
because of what it became or?
He already wasn’t a huge fan during the great crusade but he absolutely hates it now lol
He was potentially on the Emperors “kill later” list
But not confirmed
why so?
Too empathetic to stomach all the murder lol
fair nuff
Which isn’t to say he didn’t commit mass genocide
He did
He just felt kind of bad about it
Which may have been seen as an issue
Kill later 100% was: Angron, kurze, corax, khan, Mortarion
What did Morty do
His hatred of psykers conflicting with Jimmy's plan for mankind?
Hatred of psykers + he also hated big E
i dont know the 3 middle ones but
the 2 i can see i guess
The Khan also hated the Emperor and was pretty much on the edge between either side until after the Burning of Prospero
Corax and Mortarion were too similar, tyrant hating anti psykers (Mortarion was the more extreme of the two, and Horus used that to turn him), Khan saw the emperor as a tyrant and had no love for him, Angron is a broken monster
Dad was dad
Curze moment
so vulkan was/is possible on the chaos side after all this or? no right? because that'd lead to more killing
No
so he's just not overall happy
Kinda, if he returns he'd probably stick around for the sake of humanity, and maybe because Guilliman is in charge, so that's slightly better
At the extreme he'd fuck off to do his own things
Guilliman might change though lol
He got 'killed' by Mortarion before the Emperor's spirit manifested and revived him and burned Nurgle's Garden in front of Mortarion
Guilliman pretty much starts reading the Lectitio Divinitatus at the end of the events
He's getting conflicted that dad might actually be a god afterall
i see, on another note...LOOK AT THIS FUCKING GOATED MINI I SAW ON LEXICANUM
Only like 120 bucks to make it yours
Guilliman rn
MF PULLING THE
ONLY120?
i am highly considering it
oh right i'd have to either paint it or have someone paint it
FAHHH
That's... that's how minis work. Yeah.
i forgor
So add another 100 bucks for paints, brushes and other tools 
ik
Buy recast instead
whats that
Twice less expensive exact same model
People buy the model, make molds of it, and then make new miniatures by injecting material in the mold
the quality will suffer though
Not always
90% of the time and you are not guaranteed a replacement in case of a miscast
Must be you then
Just cultivate sources that can get you official stuff on the cheap
Yeah no you're never getting a forgeworld resin primarch for cheaper
Finecast 
Unironically better than FW resin
Wait no, I always forget Raine isn't Finecast. She was GW Resin which is better than FW resin for some reason
I got a finecast Sergeant Kell still in the blister because I don't want to deal with that shit yet
I wish they did the rest of the commissars with bigger hats like hers
Her hat is comically big
Raine is finecast without the branding
Oh
and calling finecast better than fw resin is wild ngl fr fr
Then yea it's better
Had zero issues with Raine, she was a pleasure to build
Wish all FW resin was that good
I got to shovel 60 bucks to get her off ebay 
it's a pretty simple sculpt so not much room for error
She was Made to Order on the Warhammer store like three years ago, that's how I got her without going into debt
Yeah, I missed that
finecast's main issue was moving from moulds used for metal to using the same moulds for resin, which caused a lot of problems. Like the resin being too porous to get good results which was necessary for it to fill out the whole mould
Now I got to wait a year for them to make the adepticon model made to order as well lmao
Raine was a rare one because the moulds were made FOR resin
What was the Adepticon model this year?
These 2
Hm
I could take or leave them tbh
They're nice, but not gonna go out of my way for them
Going for 90 bucks on ebay lmao
Sheesh
Behead scalpers
Until then I should finish painting the squad I'm working on, dudes have been sitting primed for weeks just staring at me disappointed
Painted only one of them 
you think that humans that live in the tau empire tell their kids that don't eat their food "there are starving children in the imperium!"
are people considered traitors or heretics if they live with tau?
i see
oh wait either i misinterperted or you did
are they called one or the other? or just yes as in both
They're mostly considered traitors, probably heretics in a lesser degree, still doesn't stop the Imperium from inciting uprisings on Tau worlds
But if they recapture those worlds they usually turn on the humans there and ship them to penal colonies or outright kill them and bring up new settlers
In rarer cases they might be given the chance for redemption, particularly the 'freedom fighters' who fought against the Tau occupation
But that's usually meaning they get thrown into a penal legion lol
Other cases might have the humans on the world be sifted through by the Ecclesiarchy and the Administratum then have those who passed the evaluations be reintegrated into the imperial society and made to wageslave in factorums or whatever, aka business as usual
In the end it really depends on the mood and judgement of the Crusade leaders and how the liberation of the world played out on how the Imperium deals with the traitors who got swayed by the words of the Tau
its not even scalpers it`s straight up normal people selling for that much
it's so sad
I fucking love castellans
the adepticon one is a call back to the old model
I should have done this
The laurel helmet is so goated
I think ive got 2, one for base game that I painted terribly years ago and one for a diorama to replace lord loser on a horse
I'm yet to buy a castellan, gonna get him alongside Ursula then nuke her upper torso and replace it with the tank commander from the upgrade sprue to make a less chubby no-name officer
And use the Cadia staff behind her for a standard bearer instead
I have a huge aversion to named characters for tabletop, especially when I want to make my own guys
Was about to say the same thing
Really takes me out of the battle in front of me and turns it into just another board game
Im replacing my lord solar with a diorama of a lord castellan and a group of guardsmen sprinting across an open field covered in dead guardsmen
Will go hard
Yeah, for cadians I'm making the regiment I'm running for my group's TTRPG campaign, the 99th
gonna try to make the PCs and notable NPCs after sifting through generic guardsmen
I mean you can make one with the new rules from the Maelstrom thing
they are carrying it over to 11e IIRC
Wth
I'm cautiously optimistic that 11e is bringing back making your own thing
Ive never heard of this
Cuz sentinels are actually fun as fuck if you squad them up
the type of shit you see in the unofficial war thunder server
it's weird how whenever an area has a large population of russians, this shit is what you get
maybe stalin was onto something with his purges
With Frontline Commander you can legally run a castellan with Bolter and Power Fist 
And a fucking plasma pistol and bolt pistol on top because why not
You get all of those
lamenter's sound cool
Pro free speech, but for men only i guess
did you notice what he put in the gender spot
thats my favorite
i can tell everything i need to know about a person from what they put in their gender spot
like mfer you can just use it to tell people you're a guy but the word gender activates the monkey part of their brain
Going from age of Sigmar’s anvil of apotheosis to this was a huge let down for me lmao
Smh traitor of their geneline and failures
Recaf join a based chapter like the Astral Claws
Not including the leveling system, you get 6 pages of options and customization for your anvil of apotheosis lmao
Average 40K fan
idk if i could even explain to this person that liberalism as a concept emerged like a hundred years before communism
Yes Mag, show them that AoS is better 🙏
They must see the light
I fear they might not have the cognition for it 
Holy shit they nerfed belthanos lmao
Yes, willingly at least
Woah wtf
“Maybe Russian Hitler was onto something with his purges” wild
Shift the topic to something/someone else and it's suddenly problematic 
Stalin killed so many people
Big yahu
I think more than Hitler but don't quote me
Yea
Genocide or mass murder of any kind is never funny or ok.
Tell that to communist glazers
He literally is xD
Inb4 someone comes with argument that 'what the Soviets did/China does is not real communism and it will work this time, trust'
Stfu revisionist Comrade Pol Pot was the only real revolutionary
The politics understanders have logged on to discord...
Records can get 72 a minute that's pretty good
If Earth is so big why haven’t I read its manifesto
Sham, probably a streamer
Secrets Big Earth doesn’t want you to know
Smh elitist Earth someone go kill it
If Earth is communist, why is it the 'Blue planet'? smh
Earth is a revisionist smh
Earth is grifting
Earth just wants to sell shit
Stick it to Big Earth, inhale and use more oxygen
The earth is a damn Trot
The Earth is gonna betray the revolution smh
And we are killing it with an ice pick (climate change)
I’m gonna defect to the authentic moon, away from the revisionist Earth
Hear me, O Deimos, O moon of Mars
Necron trotsky...
This will save us from capitalism and end history🫡
Does this mean Imotekh and Szarekh are Lenin and Stalin?

Ammentar exposed😮
No they're also trotsky
All necrons are equal, but some necrons are more equal than others
Finally, Necrobamatyr
Szarekh v Imotekh is just Trotsky v Obama final showdown
Necrodermis ? More like obamium
Obama about to release a shard of Dick Cheney against Trotsky
I cant remember
Is drone commander shas O'Bama a community meme or gw canon
meme
Figures
Pullin dat Obamakher detachment rule
I saw someone had started posting about quar in general and models chat and i was terrified but its not the same guy
Also i think this person actually like, plays quar
Never forget the 3 months of quar terror
Who is quar
Quar is a tabletop game where you're like, ww1 anteaters
Obama detachment stratagems for using canoptek spyders
Real
Many moons ago (about 7 of them) the guy who tried to redirect every conversation in this channel to quar for like 3 months left
He would not take "the imperium would kill all the quar before even considering talking to them" for an answer 
Was he Sven or something
Yeah lol
I vaguely remember a guy who tried to say that quars were resistant to chaos
I assume it was him lol
Hope he’s in a Quar place or smth idk
Can we helbrute quars ?
He dmed me a while back, he’s just very neurodivergent
Went into a whole tangent about it being the main thing that brings him joy, felt bad
I remember him, he kept trying to loophole his way into Quar's being in the Imperial Guard
The fuck are the quar
Worm things
Must be related to abritator ian
Autism be damned by boy can Quar
GW employees finding me with the real life size statue of Sanguinius
ill kill you today
Do you want to hellp me to kill her?
I thought you'd agree the most...
Erm, they're anteaters ☝️ 🤓
I agree with the sentiment but the execution leaves much to be desired
Me with Ushoran
What do we think, chat? Helmet or no helmet?
Send píctures of him let me judge
I can kinda see it
…is 7 moons days or months?
months
roughly
Since the lunar cycle is like 28 days
But you can equate it to a month
helmet
To the uninitiated he may not seem much, but those who have partaken of the feast he is glorious. The embodiment of noble virtue, a paragon of Kingliness
Change head to Blood Angel so it has the same vibes as the White Pharaoh
That being said, Helmet
thank you, this is all I needed to know
you can make crazy stuff with meat as long as you're not an emp bootlicker loyalist
I got the Warhammer site open and already pre set the store I want it shipped to
I am NOT taking chances

scarves, servitors, helbrutes, and much more
Now the bigger question: do I get both the IW box and book together or prio the box and buy the book after
will you actually play iron warriors ?
I will, but I’m setting the box off to the side for later
epic
This is only because the combat patrol is a good deal to me
Havocs, legionaries, Termies and a warpsmith?
Way better than the CSM Combat Patrol
at some point I will have to get real havocs if I want to tournament
get yourself a vehicle with the warpsmith lmao
Like I said this ain’t for now
fair
Later on I’ll prob get 1-2 Defilers and a forge fiend or two and maybe a Vindicator
WHAT
Alright alright hang on
I don’t know all the vehicles, reality is this
1 Defiler andForgefiend
For a start
But do Mutilators work well in Soulforged?
no, because they are not vehicles
Are you talking about the Iron Warrior combat patrol?
Yeah
Because it's limited release, it won't be around forever like the other CP's
So once it's sold out, it's gone
Stress more
Though this ain’t my first rodeo
I managed to get this bad boy 
no iron warrior patrol for me, not only because I refuse to have astartes in my army but also because im poor and I have no money
I spent everything for a helbrute, a forgefiend and a defiler
my daemon engine zoo needs to expand
Imagine not running daemon engines in an IW army
you can still run tanks
I know that
A land raider may be worthwhile ngl
yeah
CSM dont really have anti tank outside of havocs
well, not as much as other factions
I’m looking at Chosen but I’m wondering if the IW combat patrol is all the infantry I’ll need outside of leaders

Kravek is such a sick model
Yeee, mine's already in the post
LGS preorder?
I have my ways

If my other source had paid off I would have him already
Oh he's not for IW
I do know what I’ll need for my IW army which will probably be my next preorder: Perturabo (yes I know it won’t be for like years but idk what else I’d need to preorder)
He's going to be the Chapter Master for my Warband
maybe one day ill replace my warpsmith with a lord discordant but I need to check its stats first
Yeah but they could have fucked off to do his own thing lol
In terms of looking IW
Or someone looted a dead warsmiths corpse
Ect.
im probably gonna get abaddon at some point for rerolls but im not using him as abaddon
I've already got like 24 Cataphractii Terminators, so Kravek is going to fit right in
Like Fabius Bile
Many such cases
but idk
New Trazyn and Perturabo are probably the only times I’ll ever do preorder again, maybe if a good Votann box comes out
Do you proxy Chaos Androids as legionaries and such?
Are Chosen mainly melee units?
Yep
Are they the Bladeguard veterans of Chaos?
Kinda
idk if I'll keep going this way, because thallaxii are extremely blocky and barely scream chaos
I did something satisfying with my overlord for my necron army but the thing is I'm already struggling to find what specific head it is, it would make chain ordering difficult
man im craving for another apocalypse game
Then you’d like the Reign of Iron Book coming out
It has Apocalypse rules
I want to unleash my demonic mechanical zoo on loyalists without having the certitude im going to die because im fighting my brother
yeah I saw that, but me and my friend stick to 7th edition apocalypse rules
Good model, wish he was like 15% more chaos
I just mean it for the sake of him not standing out next to the rest of CSM
Are you saying he's less chaosy than other CSM?
Yes
That's what makes him perfect
Because I use HH models for my CSM since they aren't as chaos corrupted
I’d like to se him painted black legion or alpha legion
Fair, he was probably designed with that in mind
He’s literally in cataphracii armor lmao
Not really?
It’s more like a shitmix of Indom and Cata
But he does seem more clean than I’d like
most normal iron warrior armor
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO
my warpsmith has uh
primaris armor with mk2 helmet and mk2 left shoulderpad
didnt really like the split helmet
His pile of shame grows
Thank god your opinion is irrelevant
that's why we love shitmixed armors
I’d buy him if there was more yummy Tarta
The Emperor during the DAoT:
When Ultramarines are getting slandered on Twitter again but I realize my faction gets models every week anyways
how do you slander a man who has it all
also oh shit you've reminded me to go and see if the custodes are back in stock
Quantity =/= Quality 
A small price to pay for the Henry Cavill army
I want a stodes army but I'd like more sos than three models
If there are no sos fans it's because I died
Fuckkkkkkkkkkk
pay to win
At least it's not pay to lose like death watch
@rose thorn what sm chapter has black lenzes? any clue?
I can only think of Carcharadons
i see
trying to redesign my homebrew
only added the purple purple faceplate for now
Black lens are 100% lore friendly so no worries
Have you tried Neon green?
trying to think if i keep the black lenses or switch to purple again
Turn it from white to black can you have Motormaster from transformers
does not look bad
most normal dreadnought
Because they are never this mature and still get offended when you smear them lmaoooo
Also am I crazy or is that a smaller Defiler next to the Defiler
madeup background construct
dont think so deep about it
has more aura than a defiler anyway
defilers do not have two claws or 4 sets of combi weapons
no
is there a page on the lexicanum for what the shoulder pad symbol means? (the ones that arent chapter related
like the arrow and numbers
just get a brass scorpion
it's chapter dependent but yes there is a page
That's it's child
whats it called?
fair
I was wondering, when warband warpsmith make daemon engines for their warband, how come they know exactly what the standard daemon engines are ?
Corporate mandate
does Dark Mechanicum trade blueprints or what
To sell plastic tbh.
In universe? Presumably they were trained by the dark mech in the standards? There have been a few non-standard types in books but it’s usually rare.
Again. Corporate mandate.
so i got veteran down
Just make up your own origin of how they came up to be
I guess realistically there could be global concepts of daemon engines/classifiable as a type based on specifics
Yeah realistically the factions would in general have more "custom" homegrown shit
but they dont because we gotta stick t othe script of what the players can buy
Mmmmm Chaos Daemon STCs
ye
I just like the idea the instructions deliberately say “shove x type of daemon into this vessel”
They could've be trained by a dark mech, trained by another warpsmith who had previous knowledge from the HH or recently fell to chaos, stolen information on how by hacking an tech adepts brain or some shit or even warp power trough chaos boons
It must be that kind of daemon
Idfk
Bob from Nurgle won’t work
not really my area of interest either way
It's because it doesn't have background unlike loyalist techmarines who just go to Mars
make up your own origin story for how they know their shtick
dark mechanicum ikea instructions
arent imperium administratives the one to name and classify stuff anyways ?
I think daemon engines would fall in categories based on their specifics
like for example if it has 4 legs and a torso it's a defiler, if it's bipedal it's a decimator, if it flies and has wings it's a heldrake
this type of stuff
pretty sure since it's daemons and heretical stuff this falls under Ordo Hereticus/Malleus
yeah that
so they prob classify it all
I didnt have the name in mind
close support as an assault/reiver, fire support as eliminator, bladeguard veteran (again), battleline intrecessor and liuetenant
forgot the lietenent one
fahhh
now freehand it on 100 minis 
...no
why not use purple shoulderpads with white symbols ?
dont like it
are you planning to paint models with that scheme ?
no
simply for homebrew writing reasons
i cant have the purple faceplate plus a top stripe to complete the lieutenant look
Are there like insane physical feats done in terminator armor? Like jumping insanely huge gaps and shit that is often not associated with termies (since theyre meant to be tankier heavier targets)
can termies even jump ?
Does a Librarian levitating in Termie armor count?
Can librarians even levitate actually??
idk I dont think so
No, I'm talking like normal astartes
We said this like a thousand times
Librarians can do anything the plot allows them to
its madeup magic
Alright so just asspull warp magic got it
If a psyker can levitate a librarian can
Shitfiston does out of nowhere magic tricks in his book because "hes that good"
asspull magic it's literally the point of the warp like
changed my mind, it actually looks pretty good
you can literally do so many things with it it's not even funny
No way Randy Pitchford in 40k?? 
Yeah before i blow you up
I think it might depend on their terminator mark- so cataphractii and saturnine are out of question
Indomitus is a... maybe? Tartaros is possible I think since of their more agile nature
Damn
ye
I really do need to read up on Cryptek and Psyker disciplines
Magic stuff is always cool
I remember in the Daemongate game termies being able to climb shit so I don't think jumping is out of the question
Wish we had an Astromancer Cryptek (THAT ISN’T ORIKAN)
When Ultramarines are getting slandered on Twitter again but I realize my faction gets models every week anyways
One of the supervisors brought a doggo to office
eat it
The fact that he had to make this post at all shows you hes offended either way lol
You better call doggo a good boy, or girl
I did
@storm jungle Book knower do you know of any slopstartes novels of astartes in terminator armor doing insane physical shit? I mean jumping huge gaps
(Aside from that one dawn of war gamer where the character does a literal frontflip)
You give em a lot of scratches
Logan Grimnar sprints in terminator armor
lol
^
thought it looked worse so
aside from that i cant think of anything
but actually loooks pretty dope
terminators usually just stomp around
they deepstrike tho
to represent how much of a fat fuck they are
When I want to strangle the Grot in front of me but my fatass can’t advance 2”
still
no
who needs advance when you can deepstrike out of nowhere
clearly you havent played tabletop
stick to your books
Doesn’t one of the Defiler rules let it deep strike?
uh
I dont think so
The World Eater one?
Doesnt matter for lore. Stick to your toybox kiddo.
I read that tartaros is the lighter variant and gave the wearer bursts of speed (and also i think i read of some astartes having custom terminator armor that allowed for quicker movement of their limbs so they could fight fast as fuck) so i wondered if running is the ONLY impressive physical thing an astartes can do in termie
Cataphractii Armor is for when you want to really be slow, and then Saturnine is when you don’t want move a damn inch
I was replying to elitewolf initially so your remarks dont matter to me
👂🔇
matters enough for a reply apparently
another mousetrap felled, poor lad 😔
termie deepstrike is pretty much useless on an apocalypse game lol
just deploy them
They should feed uranium to terminators so they die of radiation
Go back to jail
New Lord Solar lore dropped
I love the separation of church and state
"glory be to god"
isnt it like....the opposite of what god wants? isnt like one of the 10 commandments "no killing"
Nuh uh
damn 😔
Only when its convenient
true
what the fuck LMAO
Also pretty sure it specifies "fellow man" or some shit which means if you dehumanize them its suddenly ok
Top 10 crusader techniques
Black Templar players not realising the entire joke of their faction is them being based on pillaging murdering rapist knights
"you have 48 hours"
"No"
"But I gave you 48 hours"
"Don't care, no"
"Okay, I'll give you 10 days"
"No"
"Well you've only 48 hours left of the 10 days"
"Still no"

tbh
i assume thats just a headsup before they bomb the energy infastructure then deploy troops
My favorite part of the crusades is people discussing whether or not the cannibalism was for fun, not that it happened or not
Yeah or uh "muslims deserved it and were murdering christians"
Cool. You guys did the exact same thing lol
so long gay bowser
great now im hungry
You can with all of them
does he answer
If he feels like it
I love that you can go and physicallymeet sigmar in aos, and all the other gods
Sometimes, in the rpg you get the chance you get some boons from the gods or get smitten as a priest lol
is he still fucking with the soul forge rn?
lmao
i havent checekd
AoS yes
No clue, but I bet he's tinkering on something
Yeah I'm just askin cuz of saltpyre
Sigmar is an actually good god so yes
Yea the gods in AoS are all busy doing things tbh
this is an entire plotline with Saltzpyre in VT2
he loses his faith but Sigmar answers him in his hour of need
according ot yndrasta, he also is all seeing of his followers but ranks how much he observed them based off like
glory?
Thats pretty cool
Yeah that too
Keep going, midden boy
Sigmar is a barbarian himbo at the end of the day
bro watched his entire world be destroyed and clung to the molten core of the planet itself and travelled along the cosmos
bro is HIM

HE ?
he proceeds to save the other gods who he knew were gonna betray them becuase he wnated to be buddies
SIG/MA
HE from badly translated history ?
The Virgin 50k+ years old Turkish Hitler-wannabe
Vs
The Chad Sigma Sigmar
"That's cool bud, god job" Keeps working on his latest doohickie while drinking a beer
r
Alright so
accurate
next edition's LSM primarch is less clear now lol
if theres anything AOS and WHF can agree on is that Sigmar is a gigachad across both settings
"aw shit htats kinda baller, if you die i might reforge you"
Has Saltpyre actually received blessings from sigmar
due to the new Reign of Iron shit
yes
yes of course, everyone loves sigmar
his entire warrior-priest class is based around paladin magic
he also has the tome of sigmar's legend (which you can actually read with the inspect button lol)
Thats pretty cool
Wouldnt iron warriors look completely rusted out in 10 millenia ?
Sigmar is the vaguely interested dad, who's not necessarily absent but he is kinda busy working on his car rn, so don't expect too much interaction beside "Sounds good", "Get me another beer" and "Hold the light steady damnit"
my ass is not watching this
grrrrr my lasguns have recoil
If you fuck up as a priest of sigmar in the rpg he smites you by deleting your entire inventory and leaving you ass naked in the middle of combat 
said car is also the only thing standing between his kis and armageddon
Wait I forgor their armor wasn't literal iron
