Were Night Lords Evil before the Heresy?

#

Like Were They always evil

wind hornet
#

pretty much

fervent geode
#

They were created to be evil

#

They’ve always been evil

#

Konrad Curze is a monster

rose thorn
#

i think like right after konrad was found and liek early early early pre crusade ngiht lords were cops and shit

#

konrad fuck

fervent geode
#

They’d drop cities with rain of flayed corpses

winter pine
#

Night Lords were always evil iirc

rose thorn
#

i remmebr mentioned in one of the books that like "oh yeah the first wave of new night lords were cops and stuff then instnatly fell back into being hell"

fervent geode
#

It was just less everyone and more the combatants

wind hornet
#

I think they always used the worst criminals the imperium had as recruits

rose thorn
#

i wonder why the ashen claws decided htey would be better off on their own than joinin a traitor force, old raven guard are alot more in common with night lords than anythign else

winter pine

I think the Emperor recruited the early legionaires from the worst prison hives on Terra back at the start of the Great Crusade

Cops are also really evil so I don't think it's mutually exclusive

oh boy, 10:30 pm time to watch the virtual insanity musi cvideo

fervent geode
#

From Vhnori to Piamen the Night Lords have been a force sent when peaceful compliance and rule of law is over

And it’s time to literally rain the dead over the cowering masses

#

Cops are probably

#

The Raven Guard

rose thorn
#

"boy i hope this music video posted 16 yeras ao doesnt predict the current state of humanity"

#

Raven guard before corvus were horrible people and criminals lmao

fervent geode
#

Yes

#

Brutal compliance and shit

#

Slavers

rose thorn
#

before the emperor reclaimed corvus he lead a slave rebelliona nd killed i think almost all of their slave masters

fervent geode
#

Yes then he nuked a planet (slavemaster planet)

#

Wild stuff

rose thorn
#

i can literally only think of 1 guy being mentioned ot be slavers in the ravenguard during HH and he was sent on a suicide mission

#

liek post corvus

fervent geode
#

The brunt of the slavers were sent to the Fringes to fight and die in their own war

rose thorn
#

yeah

#

god i love the railroad

fervent geode
#

Like Legion Master Arkhas Fal and Shade Captain Nerat Kirine

#

He kept some with him

#

Like the Deliverer Terminators

#

But he fucking hated them regardless

rose thorn
#

lmao yeah

fervent geode
#

I think the only one he didn’t hate was Captain Soukhounou for some reason

rose thorn
#

he was a natural born slavery HATER thats why he ist he most based primarch

fervent geode
#

That’s him and Mortarion

rose thorn
#

mortarion kept slaves post HH

fervent geode
#

That’s not Mortarion anymore, those slaves aren’t really alive either

rose thorn
#

at least gulliman is trying to scrub out slavery (and failing)

fervent geode
#

They can’t really go anywhere, pox infected and dead yet alive

I mean he freed the Barbarans

He freed the Galaspari

Not really unless you take in the account of some borderline rogue chapter like the Shark.

#

There was a whole subplot how the RG geneseed is bad

dapper gyro
#

Yes, it was tampered by the Alpha legion.

#

Yet, those guys are still more powerful and loyal to RG.

#

With the 9e, it is pretty much a non issue now.

arctic talon
dapper gyro
#

It was during heresy.

arctic talon
#

RG geneseed is perfectly fine for post heresy implementation rates

shadow plover
#

They still have malfunctioning extra organs

arctic talon
#

It’s just the melanin one iirc

dapper gyro
#

Which is really a non issue.

arctic talon
#

Wait also betchers I think

#

But that’s also mostly a non issue

#

Oh wait

#

The mucus/oily flesh one

#

For warmth

#

They’re missing that

dapper gyro
#

RG and IF are the only 2 legion in the lore with member heavily mutated by chaos and yet stay loyal and willing to die after their duties are done.

arctic talon
#

So they’re missing 2 organs and 1 is mildly defective

#

Their lack of melanin didn’t get fixed by Cawl

#

As for the other 2 no clue on if they were fixed

#

Bcs new primaris IF are still popping up with missing betchers

dapper gyro
#

It's not like they every need sunbathing...

shadow plover
#

Raptors have one of them fixed somehow but not RG themselves

arctic talon
#

Geneseed mutation be like that

#

Lol

dapper gyro
#

Raptor was supposed to be the stronger marines before the alpha legion played with RG geneseed stock.

shadow plover
#

Meant Raptors the successor chapter, not Raptors the Raven Guard unit

dapper gyro
#

Well, they are likely the one separated to create the chapter afterward.

arctic talon
#

Well the Raptor creations don’t seem to share much in common with Raptor chapter beyond name

wary fulcrum
#

(I also have a really strong argument the Alpha Legion did the same to the Wolf Brothers)

shadow plover
#

That but they still suffer from other issues as mentioned

wary fulcrum
#

Yeah most chapters do

steel ingot
#

so like now that im taking my chaos legion lore dive in earnest i gotta ask

#

are the alpha legion all that or is it just memes puffing up their image

celest dome
#

all that what ?

#

Some of the meme stuff exagerate on it

steel ingot
#

as in like are they the chad infiltrators ive been lead to believe

solid horizon
#

Most of the memes mix up 30k and 40k anyways

steel ingot
#

are alpha legion guys uncloaking and doing this to dark angels

celest dome
#

They're good at infiltrating and decieving

steel ingot
#

geuinely i think the only chaos legion thats lived up to the hype are word bearers

dapper gyro
#

The thing is that people usually comparing legions to chapters, which are very different.

#

A legion is huge and they have specialised detachment in form of company, which turned into chapters after 31k.

steel ingot
#

it does seem a little silly that most space marine chapters think a 1000 guys is definitely enough

#

meanwhile legions are amassing as many fucking angry evil dudes as possible

#

though i do have to wonder since they are their old legions, dont they suffer attrition much worse, like they cant get those 10k year old warriors back right

dapper gyro
#

1000 frontline. They have more in reserve. Still not many. GW was not good with numbers. Though, that number is good to make homebrews into semi-canon.

#

Chaos SMs actively create new troops as well.

rocky gale
dapper gyro
#

Most of the unnamed ones are not that old. While the ones from 30k don't live for the whole 10k years as time passes in different rate in the warp.

steel ingot
#

okay cause its been an issue to square that circle while reading chaos lit

#

like how are you guys not starving for army replenishments

dapper gyro
#

Chaos give them unnatural power.

rocky gale
#

They abduct and implant people, plus their worlds have mortals populations

dapper gyro
#

Worshippers

rocky gale
#

They also steal uncorrupted geneseed from the loyalist marines they kill and use that

steel ingot
#

ah okay

#

still with the way the lit reads it makes it feel like the heresy era warriors are the only people who exist, hence the confusion on my end

rocky gale
#

And like every marine is supposed to produce 2 geneseeds when they die, so they scale if the seed can be recovered

dapper gyro
steel ingot
#

meanwhile nl see geneseed like yum yum gimme some

dapper gyro
#

Though it is pretty much retconned.

steel ingot
#

seeing this before i read half of the books

fervent geode
#

Or in the case of the Word Bearers, Ksons and DG have an entire planet of potential aspirants as well

raven stone
#

Also Warp is a place of non-linear time shenanigans

#

So at any given point there could be a duplicate of the same given Chaos Marine existing

steel ingot
#

like look all the lit involving word bearers ive read of encountered has them being all that

#

like they are fr fr the favored sons not those larper ass black legion assholes

#

plus their dad still loves them probably

#

and they are very efficient at sowing chaos in a way i have to put respect to

like world eaters are cool, black legion are cool, iron legion are full of iron and stuff but like

steel ingot
#

something about the absolute directness of the word bearers "we have no alterior motives than to sow chaos as we are directed"

#

they are evil as a way of life

#

its kinda refreshing

normal pulsar
#

I enjoy the thouSAND sons

#

Cool magician shit

steel ingot
#

the only bit i dont really like is their crimson and silver paint scheme is a little mid compared to their chaos rivals

#

world eaters eat their lunch on that regard

solid horizon
#

Tbh silver trim is dope in chaos

#

Black Legion used to have silver trim a long time ago before GW slowly switched it to gold

#

Silver fits really well the WB dark red

#

Also I forgor but I think WB have blue lenses ?

steel ingot
#

i just think the red and silver isnt as good

#

plus brass/bronze trim if you ask me is one of the coolest in 40k

Silver trim is best on midnight blue tbh

Same for brass

i mean in the grandest scheme

These chuds

Yes those are GW plastic

Also I should warn you uh

When u said gw i thought u meant actual GW official and i was like "nah them prices are hefty for first minis"

shadow plover

a tad old now but still a pretty decent kit

solid horizon

Horus Heresy plastic based models have uh

#

An unholy count of parts per model

shadow plover

those have the same amount as a normal old tactical kit for 40k

The GW slowly ported it to plastic

shadow plover

or the legs are probably in two pieces instead of one

Exactly what im looking for tbh
This will be my FIRST time ever painting something let alone a mini

What are good brushes to use on minis

#

Like size wise

dapper gyro
#

Or you can just but a hobby knife with saw blade.

solid horizon
#

Id recommend a dry brush, a medium and a small brush

rancid cove
solid horizon
#

Most expensive part will always be the primer spray can

dapper gyro
#

0, 00 and 000 are common brush size for painting mini.

shadow plover
#

any kolinsky sable size 2 is a good workhorse for all infantry models

#

size 1 or 0 for smaller detail

rancid cove
solid horizon
#

You have all the colors

#

Tradition is black or white

rancid cove
shadow plover
#

personally I think sizes like 00 and 000 are almost unnecessary, there are a couple edge cases where they're good but most of the time the brush's belly is so small it'll dry up before even managing to get the brush onto the mini

solid horizon
rancid cove
#

Ah

#

Makes sense

#

Oh yeah knife is a must have too

#

My biggest issue is gonna be figuring out how to not apply too much glue when assembling the minis

dapper gyro
#

That... comes from experience.

solid horizon
#

Get yourself superglue, Citadel glue doesn't work on resin

rancid cove
#

Local glue was gonna be my answer anyways

shadow plover
#

the models aren't resin though

dapper gyro
#

Tamiya glue works great, just need a thin layer.

solid horizon
rancid cove
#

You chuds need to remember im from brazil

#

Recasts are like my biggest answer over official shit due to pricing

solid horizon
#

Get gel formula rather than liquid if you're a beginner

dapper gyro
#

Tamiya has world wide distrubution.

shadow plover
#

ah right so then the glue will be a pain

dapper gyro
#

Like, if there is any kind of hobby thing, then they would be there.

#

From wood craft to other stuff.

shadow plover
#

I'd suggest looking into slow setting super glues instead of the normal stuff

#

or activators

rancid cove
#

Now

dapper gyro
rancid cove
#

My thing will be looking up decals online to print them here

#

Idk how ill try to paint the chuds

Impossible for them to not have retailer there.

It depends

#

They could be strong enough to form their own chapter

#

Crusade era fleets had everything they needed for campaigns

#

Normal guard infantry, vehicles for astartes and normal humans, mechanicus assistance, knight/titan supports, remembrancers and iterators

#

They could legit come back still with enough numbers to make a good independent force if they feel like it

#

Or just be reunited with their legion if theyre loyalist

#

If traitor they could be given blackshield service at best

wary fulcrum
rancid cove
#

As long as the chapter has enough strength to fight back the Inquisition whenever they try to force shit into them

#

Theyre fine

wary fulcrum

(GW fucked up at one point and said vehicles have Astartes crew, and then left a few out from the org

So predators and whatnot have a crew from the…i want to say 6th company, but rhinos and maybe land raiders dont

And then you have command squads, librairus, the chaplaincy which might be reclusiarch but i cant remember)

Another big thing is the "1000 Marines" only applies to "battleline" Marines. Specialist roles and crews DONT count towards the number. They pretty much only count Assault, Tacticals, Devestators, and Vets. Like the Red Scorpions, in all their codex ways, have an Apothecary per squad which is already 100 extra Marines

Yeah, the shuttles weren't used to transport valhallans, as their spaceship crashed, but theyd already been assigned to the ship for transport, so the administratum declared them lost with the ship, parked them off the runway and just ignored the shuttles and crew til cain saw them and roasted them

“I have built many glorious creations, all failures. They are putrid, disgusting, <defective> things, but I love them so, as they are my children. But one of them shows promise for a different purpose, to bring sweet suffering upon those that wronged me, the angels say it must be so! It stalks them even now, and soon I will be free from their wretched existence. Free to finish my work.”

Yeah they do

But I really like variety in characters like Cacti said

And the nails really inhibits that

You don't have strategic masterminds, poets or "kind" characters inside the WE, just constant barbarians complaining of the pain the nails causes and the rage and bloodthirt

They're all the same all the time

At least in other legions you have individual characters

Blood Angels you have still noble figures, people who try to fight it, who still have feelings and plans and dreams. Artists, dreamers, yearners.

#

Space Wolfs still have the more quiet, less bolstering, the more kins to the mission and getting it done

#

Orks still make it funny, fun, it changes in how each one thinks and their wishes

#

But WE is just constant screaming at the top, always on the verge of breaking

#

There's no noble image

Its just the same concept over and over again

It gets boring after a while because they don't have variety
