@storm jungle

[storm jungle]

I think the most annoying part is people just do not understand the Emperor dying will seal the setting either, I hate teh fucking "the entire universe explodes", no it wont lol

Like we agreed the Sol System will just go to hell and everyone will move on and the Emperor will just carve out his own space in the Warp and become the new AstronomiKKKan.

[storm jungle]

More or less yea

[arctic talon]

The emperor will explode into the Dark King which will be funny

The Fall of Cadia in 999.M41 marked the end of the millennium originally and it jumped into M42 with a couple novels, then GW dogwalked it back to 999.M41 because 'the calendar is wrong'

And then be called slurs by the oldheads.

Are rhey interested in empire building?

[gleaming gale]

"Anywhere between early M41 and a millennium later."

[queen laurel]

[queen laurel]

They are looking to cure the dementia of their supercomputers

[midnight dragon]

Ok im starting to see why votann has so little lore now

[storm jungle]

they dont have little lore

"every faction does its own thing" is literally the rule for everyone

lol

[heady rivet]

I HATE the Lucifer Blacks its so hilarious how they are so overhyped when they have ONE sentence of lore and ZERO images

[queen laurel]

Even orks have differences with the major clans

[storm jungle]

its literally because of their dumbass name

[heady rivet]

"From Terra, stand around"

[storm jungle]

LUCIFER BLACKS

okay cool

fuck off

[sharp pollen]

how can i not be racist to lucifer blacks

[heady rivet]

Some guy in general asked for them to be added as Cosmetics

[midnight dragon]

Yeah, what i meant is votann are mainly just interested in mining tho and that goes for all the leagues so yk

[storm jungle]

search "lucifer blacks" in the searchbar they've been parroting that for like 3 years

[gleaming gale]

I think it's the same guy I was arguing with some days ago

lol

[storm jungle]

They do more than that but again a lot of lore

[celest dome]

FS should add Pink Krieg

[gleaming gale]

"Lucifer Blacks are underrepresented they are Terra's elite regiment and successors of the Solar Auxilia or someshit"

Cool, the Solar Auxilia literally lost all their gear by the Siege of Terra lol

They’re soc cap more so. They’re all worker communes in essence

In 40k capitalism is either Dwarf worker communes, nepobaby trust fund noble central, or the Mexican cartels but for prodcust like milk or t-shirts

[opaque coyote]

Small percentage better than regular steel

Like 5% or something

[heady rivet]

Yeah like 5.43%

[arctic talon]

Do we count drukhari as capitalists

lol

[storm jungle]

They literally have those hernkyn commandoes start fucking conflicts with opposing entities/factions then come in to secure the resources once they have destroyed each other btw

[heady rivet]

Hank LOVES Zola

[sharp pollen]

dm me

[arctic talon]

I mean they literally aren’t dead

People were just overreacting

[gleaming gale]

Tbf GW literally just pulled some canned sketches from some dusty drawer as a last minute pull after the nerd rage

[arctic talon]

Sucks they didn’t show up but that animation is mostly reused assets

[gleaming gale]

Steel Legion was planned at one point then cancelled

If GW truly went through with their plan back then they wouldn't tease some random concept arts, they'd punch you in the face with the new minis

[heady rivet]

I truly believe they intended to ragebait for longer (Like until Skulls) but then they panicked snd cut it short so they didnt have finalized art ti announce it with

[midnight dragon]

Still a really cool animation.

[jade holly]

Imagine a Hyperion x Torgue style league

[arctic talon]

There’s nothing wrong with reused assets, but it’s why there’s only Cadians and Krieg in it.

They had it on hand to make it not implode their wallet

Or to cut time

One or the other

[heady rivet]

Its like, THIRTY seconds of action

[gleaming gale]

Poor GW would go bankrupt from modelling a single legionary and pasting him 10 times on the screen for a few seconds

[midnight dragon]

So why 2 gas mask regiments

[arctic talon]

More so the company had a tight deadline

Is my bet

lol

[jade holly]

Look at it this way, why waste all that money on a short animation of all things

[gleaming gale]

They can literally import the assets from Darktide lol

[arctic talon]

We have 3 gas mask regiments

[midnight dragon]

Whats the third

[arctic talon]

We literally do not know that

Whatever the reason, greezers and geeks want their trench-coat + gas-mask soldiers in the correct color.

[arctic talon]

But savlar never got bespoke rules

[gleaming gale]

Harakoni Warhawks also wear masks

[arctic talon]

I’m talking about the big tabletop ones

Who got their own rules

So it’s SL, Krieg and Vostroyans

But yes

There’s way more gasmask regiments

[jade holly]

Would Catachans just be one smaller part of an IG army or could you do an entire Catachan army?

[storm jungle]

Catachan is an entire planet + regiment

[gleaming gale]

They had their own codex at one point lol

[storm jungle]

They just dont really have anything lol

[sharp pollen]

catachan is a gang

[storm jungle]

MAYBE THEY'D HAVE SOME VARIETY

[solid horizon]

it's a theme regiment

How strong are Catachan vs your standard guardsman?

They got no molded cadian details so it’s an easy change

[solid horizon]

clearly you have not played them on tabletop

Tbf catachan regiments are also way smaller, like 1000 dudes, they have an official exempt from the Munitorum to field smaller numbers

Not the brightest of the bunch

[heady rivet]

Catachan women are just hyper fertile and birth triplets

[gleaming gale]

There's a theory that catachans are a stable abhuman strain given their unnatural strength, might as well have shorter pregnancy time while at it lol

[heady rivet]

How do Catachans even live anyway. No cities, no tribes. Just chilling

[jade holly]

They don’t live, they thrive

[gleaming gale]

They have fortresses and bunkers that they constantly use flamers on to stop creeping vines

[spare osprey]

Administorum is just jealous of their STRONK muscles that they gotta classify them as abhumans to excuse their skill issue.

[arctic talon]

Yeah they have actual permanent like places

[gleaming gale]

(The abhuman theory also explains why the fuck no marine chapter tried to get aspriants from Catachan, they just aren't genetically compatible)

[arctic talon]

To live in

[jade holly]

Catachan are just mini Ogryn

[arctic talon]

They get to govern themselves lol

[rancid cove]

the entirety of the planet is literally Arkham Asylum

[arctic talon]

The savlar get kept in line with two things, imperial authority

And needing to pay the tithe

lol

[jade holly]

Drugs

Oh

[arctic talon]

Drugs don’t keep them in line

Drugs is what they do when they’re bored

[fervent geode]

At least Nostramans can be noble enforcers or factory slaves it sucks as hell but it’s better than Arkham asylum battle royale

[gleaming gale]

Yeah, savlars literally have two prospects

behave to not go back home and being allowed to steal trash off the battlefield

[fervent geode]

A thing that’s probably a crazy reward for most other guardsmen is a punishment for em, that’s Savlar

[gleaming gale]

IIRC a savlar regiment made out with a Leman Russ Executioner as loot

[arctic talon]

Savlar are oddly well equipped

[gleaming gale]

And those are rare as shit

Savlar armored regiments are known for being weirdly well equipped

[fervent geode]

Savlar pull up with a Falchion Tank Destroyer one day /j

No need to maintain tanks when you can just steal a new one

[jade holly]

A Brazilian group of soldiers called the Smoking Snakes stole a US tank as a prank

[arctic talon]

mfw the enginseer says this is the 5th time they've come back with a different tank

imagine being the poor enginseer assigned to a Savlar armor regiment

[gleaming gale]

"Just a different paintjob, that's all"

[rocky gale]

Yea I thought it was a meme, but yea at the end it's a self help advert

[arctic talon]

because they're not like the other penal battalions

[nocturne crest]

Nope.

[arctic talon]

Its still so funny how the only thing penal about the Savlar is their origin

they get equipment, they get no bomb collars

like cmon lol

[gleaming gale]

Yeah

[fervent geode]

The Rogal Dorn got lost, could ya help us with the new Valdor?

[gleaming gale]

technically they are a guard regiment, not a penal legion

practically they're kinda both

[nocturne crest]

Because the inspiration behind it is mostly greens apart from the head.

[solid horizon]

idk, yoshi ?

[arctic talon]

mfw this guy huffs gasoline before asking if you've got a pistol on you

[gleaming gale]

"Hey coghead, we kinda lost the Chimera but... we got this thing!"

Rolls out with a Shadowsword.

[arctic talon]

"by the Omnissiah"

[fervent geode]

Got any bolt pistols in your bag

[spare osprey]

Baneblades are like a one per regiment thing, yeah?

[arctic talon]

Depends

[gleaming gale]

They're not even part of regiments, they form separate super heavy companies that are attached as needed

[solid horizon]

on tabletop the limit is 3

[gleaming gale]

a company has like 3 of them

[nocturne crest]

Nothing mario related. I mentioned it yesterday.

[arctic talon]

Yeah they’re part of super heavy armor companies

So an armored regiment having one isnweird

But the savlar are legally allowed to loot battlefield salvage

[fervent geode]

Hey uh, we lost a Medusa, but we found this… Typhon?

[arctic talon]

So they take literally everything they can

[spare osprey]

"Golly, Chemdog. They let y'all have TWO Baneblades??"

[arctic talon]

A savlar gets sent out with a lasgun and flak, comes back with a krieg gas mask, an autopistol and a power sword

Completely naked

[gleaming gale]

and 10 krak grenades in a satchel

[arctic talon]

Aside from the gas mask

[solid horizon]

how do you capture a baneblade

[gleaming gale]

Very carefully

[fervent geode]

You kill everyone inside and start driving

[solid horizon]

easier said than done

[fervent geode]

And don’t stop until familiar voices ask you wtf are you doing

[fervent geode]

Hey, you just need one guy to drive it back

[solid horizon]

guess ill send my technoarcheologist, indiana jones

[nocturne crest]

So you could do a krieg in savlar colours then?

[solid horizon]

I fought a baneblade on tabletop and uh

I dont know how anyone can realistically capture one

(it fought me more than the opposite, lack of anti tank weapons)

[gleaming gale]

In the Baneblade novel series the tank does get replacements after some crewmen get slimed

one of them is a savlar

pretty funny bloke

[arctic talon]

track it or kill the crew inside

baneblades tend to live or be salvagable even when the crew dies

lol

[solid horizon]

yeah but how do you get inside in the first place

[arctic talon]

much like irl tanks tend to be more survivable then the crew

you don't go inside

you just turn the crew to mush

lol

[solid horizon]

how

[fervent geode]

Flamer

[arctic talon]

Explosives?

[fervent geode]

Nade

[arctic talon]

you don't need to destroy a tank to kill the crew

Shockwaves can kill people lol

[gleaming gale]

Yeah shockwave does that for you

[arctic talon]

shrapnel

ect.

[spare osprey]

Humans are squimshy.

[fervent geode]

Just shoot a flamer down the hole

[arctic talon]

^

Humans are the inferior component within a tank

lol

[gleaming gale]

That's why power armour will never work IRL

the armour is fine but you are paste inside it

lol

[arctic talon]

but yeah tank shock literally kills people in 40k lol

[solid horizon]

hmm now you mention it I never envisioned grenades but it can work yeah

[fervent geode]

That’s why big e made monsters instead of men lol

[spare osprey]

Just stuff a pillow inside.
EZ.

[jade holly]

Just automate the baneblade smh

[solid horizon]

too bad skitarii don't have grenades

[arctic talon]

they do in lore

[solid horizon]

isnt that heresy though

[arctic talon]

just not in tabletop

bcs get fucked

lol

generally the way tanks die irl is due to being crippled

or the crew dying

[solid horizon]

[solid horizon]

why dont skitarii have grenades on tabletop that so silly man

[arctic talon]

besides intentionally destroying it

or an ammo cook off

[fervent geode]

That’s why the Germans used the Shermans folks

Stealing

[solid horizon]

dudes have all the tech they want but no nades

[gleaming gale]

Skitarii rangers on tabletop have the same BS as guardsmen

[arctic talon]

see ammo cook offs: all the fucking russian tanks 💀

[arctic talon]

I miss my fucking BS3+ man

lol

[solid horizon]

it just

[arctic talon]

Protector is 3+

but I want 3+ baseline

the new army rule sucks

[solid horizon]

all the statsheets got fucking neutered

and I get a shitty bandaid army rule instead

lol

[solid horizon]

it's so easy to miss every shot lmao

[arctic talon]

Well

4+ is fine

[gleaming gale]

not to mention it's literally 1 point a dollar for the list

[arctic talon]

statistically you're fine

[solid horizon]

transuarnic arquebus is extremely shitty

[arctic talon]

It doesn't feel good

then you used to though

lol

you're still paying a fucking premium for that 3+ BS points wise as well

[arctic talon]

admech is cheaper now actually

its kind of horrifying

[gleaming gale]

GW still refuses to sell 2 chickens in a box

[arctic talon]

that this is the cheapest admech has been since 7e

[gleaming gale]

they gave that neutered battalion box just now

could have had 2 chickens

[solid horizon]

ad mech vehicles are not really good

dunecrawler is fine

[gleaming gale]

Every metatard spams balistarii

[solid horizon]

but the fact transport has no firing deck is stupid when it has no roof

[arctic talon]

Skorpius is good

both of them

same with dunecrawler

all of our motorpool is good rn

[arctic talon]

Balistarii are technically not vehicles(fun fact)

[spare osprey]

That reminds me.
Any other online stores for cheaper sprues?

[arctic talon]

I'm located in the US sooooo I just use online LGS stores

yeah they're mounted

which is the best of both worlds

bcs they're not vehicles

[gleaming gale]

[solid horizon]

I love the latex mask head for skitarii

too bad there is only one per box

[gleaming gale]

Yeah that's literally what they look like with the hood down

lol

[nocturne crest]

Just a thought, but does that mean Salvar chemdogs can savage admech stuff if they find it?

[arctic talon]

Yes, can they use it? it depends

admech stuff is intentionally odd

to people not trained

also their regimental tech priest might not be happy

and bribe them to give it back

"I'll give you a plasma pistol if you give me that radium carbine"

ect. lol

[gleaming gale]

Best solution is to run the loot through with the enginseer

[arctic talon]

^

[solid horizon]

I didnt know it was really a latex/leather mask before, when I painted mine I assumed it was exposed skin like the other implant head options and painted mine latex colored

[arctic talon]

Savlar regiments ironically love their enginseers

[solid horizon]

funny coincidence

[gleaming gale]

Any guardsman worth their salt knows you DO NOT antagonize the enginseers

lol

[arctic talon]

Despite being a bunch of literal criminals

the enginseers fix their loot

and give it back

[heady rivet]

yeah

[solid horizon]

I need more anti tank before I can find the guard again

[gleaming gale]

I need more time and will to paint 100 guardsmen

[arctic talon]

Imperium maledictum represents how odd tech meant for mechanicus personnel only

By having a penalty to using it

If you didn’t have someone teach you

Or aren’t part of the cult mechanicus

[solid horizon]

one day, one day I will destroy the baneblade

but it's so difficult to get to it before you get destroyed

[gleaming gale]

Yeah, but Big Mech doesn't have monopoly on all tech maintenance

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[midnight dragon]

Im eepy

[gleaming gale]

There's plenty of stuff normal people can do to fix it, from authorized personnel lectured by the Admech to wire-spell shenanigans

[arctic talon]

But if you wana use a fucking plasma cavalier it’s some weird esoteric nonsense

Instead of just a normal plasma gun

[gleaming gale]

I find it funny you can be some fucking hobo and you can use the plasma gun with no issue if you find one

back in Only War you had to waste XP to train for the weapon group

[solid horizon]

do you think realistically the new defiler can beat a baneblade

[gleaming gale]

A big IT DEPENDS

[solid horizon]

or will it get obliterated by an unwelcomed fire overwatch

[arctic talon]

Yeah it’s kind of hilarious

[arctic talon]

Based on datasheet yes

It can kill

[solid horizon]

Im still thinking of strategies to beat the baneblade

I have first to wipe the guard belt around the tank that prevents direct melee charge

then charge

but the risk is

fire overwatch in my face

[arctic talon]

I saw someone shoot it to death with chosen

[gleaming gale]

Big guns never tire lole

Baneblade can shoot you in the face in melee

[solid horizon]

so I have to use another scary machine to make my opponent use fire overwatch

[solid horizon]

yeah I know, vehicle rules

[silver grail]

I teleport some infantry in and charge it

Works most of the time

[gleaming gale]

I should get a Baneblade.

[solid horizon]

I cant do that lol

[silver grail]

Also helps that I play chudstodes but yk

[solid horizon]

I use soulforged warpack exclusively with daemon engines (and havocs at the rear)

only infantry I can have is uh

skitarii or necrons

[arctic talon]

Thus they are chudstodes

I did like watchers of the throne tho

One of my favorite books

[near wasp]

It's so good

[silver grail]

Aleya is so tuff

Basically gave the middle finger to robot girlyman

[silver grail]

The powerscaling in it for the chudstodes is also my favorite so far

They are absolute killing machines but not invulnerable

[gleaming gale]

I really liked the custodian in the Celestine/Greyfax audio drama

[silver grail]

I liked the moment where a custodian gets grappled by 3 Minotaurs WWE style

[gleaming gale]

His voice actor is killing it

[silver grail]

With the spears at a semi distance they cut through marines but when they get grappled by multiple they don’t just shrug it off

[silver grail]

But them deflecting bullets by spinning their spears is kinda bullshit

Hi

[silver grail]

1 commissar per 50 xD

[storm jungle]

Hesh legit sounds like hes decaffeniated throughout the entire book so that adds up

[storm jungle]

I mean its a realistic number

a single political officer cannot handle 100+ men lol

[silver grail]

Yeah, in other books it’s 1 per a few hundred or thousand

[rancid cove]

The average sanctioned psyker after telling the commissar he knew what he was doing

[silver grail]

The numbers get wonky

[storm jungle]

also most book have multiple commissars

[silver grail]

The pdf commissars in Cains get a few hundred thousand

[gleaming gale]

Eh more likely the regiment force marched it's way out with at least a couple of them while the rest stuck with Katarin or were unaware of the whole moving out until too late lmao

[storm jungle]

Cain is not really a lore accurate series so i wouldnt pay much attention to it

hes a fairy tale figure basically

[silver grail]

True

The pdf commissar is a drunkard that is supposed to care for multiple worlds of pdf but spends his time being drunk somewhere

[rocky gale]

Yooooo is that from the secret extra Stranger Things finale episode?

[gleaming gale]

Considering the shitshow at the POAF Katarin probably pulled all the Krieg commissars to deal with the rabble while she ||sold the regiment out||

[storm jungle]

100%

She literally orchestrated an entire massacre lol

[silver grail]

Though I prefer the 1 for a few hundred

Cause otherwise some regiments would have like 60 commissars

[storm jungle]

Depends on the regiment and situation at hand tbh

regiments can also be of any size from hundreds to thousands so 60 commissars is ironically a pretty good number

[gleaming gale]

I really had to do some autistic spreadsheeting for a regiment org chart and settled for a commissar per company with a few juniors around each

[storm jungle]

yeah i was gonna say Officers would handle half the load but you also cannot really fully trust officers either as they are kin with the regiment lol

Only War has earning medal mechanics?

[gleaming gale]

Ye, based on what the characters do

It can range from campaign medals that give you a bonus on socials with other veterans of the same campaign to shit like bonus to resisting crits lol

[heady rivet]

I never bothered getting the Only War books because it seemed like a kinda boring premise in most situations

[gleaming gale]

Also you have no money and buying items mechanically

You gotta roll logistics

Based on the front conditions, how long the campaign has been going until that point, how long the regiment has been deployed on the front and the favoured weapons of your regiment and nearby regiments tied to your depot lol

Then you get + or - on the logistics roll to nail the number or above of the item you want to get it

[daring creek]

Is it possible to like

[gleaming gale]

If you want a plasma gun which is usually rare and your regiment isn't specced for plasma weaponry but the mordians nearby do, you get a bonus to it and you requisition it from their stockpile

I never got speech therapy, I had to get special help with making my writing readable though

[heady rivet]

I have a lisp

[near wasp]

The fact the pulling off beard trick has a name is the funniest part to me

[plush mason]

that too

like its literally a part of their culture

[near wasp]

Also is it like a fake beard or what how the fuck he get it back so quick

[nocturne crest]

I got a bit of a new silly question. If there are inquisitors who can use suits of terminator armour, could they use Centurion armour as well?

[plush mason]

iirc Nolan also grew a beard very quickly

[rocky gale]

My handwriting sucks because I had delayed brain development, so I learned how to write when my brain was smooth and writing is an automotive process that comes from habit and patterns. So even thought my brain developed more as I got older I still write like an absolute smooth brain because that's how I subconsciously know how to write.

[heady rivet]

My handwriting sucks because I held the pencil wrong for too wrong before anyone noticed and I cant retrain myself to not hold it that way every time I pick up the pencil or pen

[plush mason]

its also many months when we see him again post beard ripoff

[heady rivet]

And I dont get a chance to write that much anyway

[rocky gale]

I've got to write reports for work

[plush mason]

my handwriting is as bad as my typing if not worse lmao

[rocky gale]

There's been comments about how bad my handwriting is and I had to explain that, that's how I write when I'm concentrating and trying really hard to write well so other people can read it.

[heady rivet]

I write in all caps

Thanks audible for offering books you know I already own

[rose thorn]

We need to fuckinh kill him

[daring creek]

What is this

[rose thorn]

I don’t even know

[daring creek]

ngl i hate the word tourist used by either side

[rancid cove]

Rock Solid being a tourist as always reposting memes he finds on 4chan

[daring creek]

seems like a buzzword

[rancid cove]

yeah however Rock Solid is an actual fucking tourist

all he does is go into hobby communities and start discussions for no reason, he grifts for anti woke bs and right wingers

plus he has never played or consumed any of the media he talks about

he is literally a tourist

[daring creek]

Hasn't he played warhammer though

I feel like he has

[rancid cove]

no

he larps, as he always does

[daring creek]

Anyone else notice that like

theres always a "dude" of the random given amount of time lately

[near wasp]

What

[daring creek]

a phenomenon Ive noticed on twitter

idk just feels like theres a guy of the month of several months

probably just my perspective

[rancid cove]

ah i see what missus means

[near wasp]

I dont

[rancid cove]

theres always the topic person of the month

each month a specific famous profile on twitter is trendin for some reason

and its always the "dude" of the month

[daring creek]

it is SO hard not to believe everything isnt a psyop

[rancid cove]

i mean eh
