[sacred ginkgo]

The rest of canto 8 is paced alot faster

Enjoy the ride

[outer wave]

Thank you, I hope I do

Especially that one fight

Im glad I got a Ring team together

[sacred ginkgo]

Which

Theres like 6 of them

[outer wave]

Lei Heng

[sacred ginkgo]

Thats the thumb

[outer wave]

He is a thumb

[sacred ginkgo]

Oh wait I meant the team

Which ringlings

[copper island]

this is rlly funny but the playerbases of four player co-op games have gotta be the most annoying mfs ever

🙏🏽

[jade holly]

Does Borderlands count in this?

[crystal forum]

why is the left 4 dead 2 crew there 😭

[copper island]

kinda

[copper island]

l4d2 is a four player co-op

[outer wave]

Oh my bad. Nurse father Hong Lu, Apprentice Faust, Fauvist Rodion/Merusault, Pointilists Yi Sang and Outis

[copper island]

actually borderlands does count i think

[sacred ginkgo]

Oh so actually all of them

Sick

[copper island]

the characters are memorable enough

[sacred ginkgo]

I'm still looking for Faust and probably won't bother with Yi Sang

[outer wave]

Yeah, I decided I fuck with art majors and went to building a team

[jade holly]

Borderlands, the series where you can play a psychopathic berserker with a roid form, an engineer with dual turrets that deploy nukes, a causality immune cosmic goddess given flesh, a cyber ninja with the ability to turn any bullet into a drill, and the most broken character is a guy who holds a second gun in his left hand

[sacred ginkgo]

I'm mostly panicking to get my rodion leveled by the 12th so I can actually do Reflectrial

[outer wave]

What level is she now?

[celest cedar]

uhm vermintide 2 is five guys

well three guys 2 girls

[sacred ginkgo]

My sinking team is tuned down (with the sole exception of lacking Alruine) so I just need to level her and Kurokumo heath and I'm probably set

[copper island]

four player co-op

shut up

[sacred ginkgo]

Missing kurokumo ishy though

So it'll probably be something like Corpo lu, furry rodion, Sancho, kuro heath, cassette meursault, and like

N corp duo?

Idk

OH

Both tremorhages

Way better idea

[outer wave]

I think having both Fauvists when you're using Rodion may be worth it, as Mersault helps apply Rouge for Rodion, and Rodion helps Mersault do more damage

[sacred ginkgo]

(contempt awe and allen)

[outer wave]

Allen....

[sacred ginkgo]

Bloodfiend Meursault is just better

Team support, sustain, buffing other peoples nukes, attack weight

He's a bleed staple

Also how his skill 1 works it target feeds Sancho

[outer wave]

Oh yeah fair fair

[sacred ginkgo]

Hardblood Armor is the effect of all time

[outer wave]

I got no bloodfiends in my entourage so I cannot say if they're something Id run over Fauvist, I just know that Rodion feels kinda lacking in unfocused fights

[sacred ginkgo]

The bloodfiends have officially fallen off behind the ringlings

Only Sancho and Meursault stay doing enough

[outer wave]

Yeah, I feel Faust and Hong Lu are an incredibly powerful duo

[sacred ginkgo]

He does this

[outer wave]

They just AOE everything

[sacred ginkgo]

Oh and his skill 2 has lust fragility which I never noticed

[arctic talon]

Not reading allegations

[outer wave]

Christ they get tanky quick

[sacred ginkgo]

Compared to mr B+

[sacred ginkgo]

Bloodfiends are effective hp tanks

[outer wave]

I can see why

They'd probably be better for longer fights than the Ring team

[sacred ginkgo]

Besides this asshole (priest, this is level 55)

[outer wave]

JESUS

[sacred ginkgo]

His skill 1 and 2 both do like 10-25 bleed on self though, and he only heals on skill 3

Still the biggest raw hp pool in the game iirc

[outer wave]

Would've thought K Corp Hong Lu would have the highest tbh

But I think that makes sense, considering his self bleed

Priest would need the extra HP just to get compensate

[sacred ginkgo]

They probably match

[outer wave]

Probably

You saving up for Ricardocliff?

[sacred ginkgo]

Anyway, teams for Reflectrial will be smth like this

[sacred ginkgo]

No, dropped shards on kurokumo heath

I'm not terribly interesting in the middle atm, only have Meursault's middle id

[outer wave]

Im gonna try and roll for the fella, and if not, hopefully I can get that Rodion EGO or another Middle ID

[sacred ginkgo]

Outis's middle id is still coming, its going to be some kinda special

[outer wave]

I need a Middle team after this

I dunno why but I find myself with a good amount of IDs with at least one envy skill

So I can splash in Middle Mersault in some other teams

[sacred ginkgo]

I'll probably collect the middle eventually

I've seen the current goons do some funny stuff

I'm mostly excited for the Thumb

Rodion and whoever else

Scorch will become an md build

[outer wave]

Thumb Apprentice Gregor.....

[sacred ginkgo]

Nah

[outer wave]

😔

[sacred ginkgo]

Probably meursault

[outer wave]

I feel like he gets paired up with Rodion alot

[sacred ginkgo]

actually no thats dumb its probably like

[outer wave]

Like the Fauvists are literally paired together

[sacred ginkgo]

heathcliff or some shit

Meur already has a thumb id

Very interested to see how his mirror version of the thumb apprentice goes

[outer wave]

Id imagine they may spread it out so that you could in theory run each of Nursefather and Apprentice in a team together, so as long as there isnt any overlap, it should be fair game

[sacred ginkgo]

Ideally

I just want Scorch as a team

[outer wave]

Isnt burn already a team?

[sacred ginkgo]

Scorch is an amplitude conversion

[outer wave]

Ahhhhhhhhhhh

The special tremor

[sacred ginkgo]

Its one of the better damage tremor's

Hemorhage exists but bleed count is way more volatile

[outer wave]

Yeah it can be tough to keep up consistently

[sacred ginkgo]

Its also more fodder for my Desperado team so I welcome it

[outer wave]

Speaking of teams, I should definitely get a burn team going

[sacred ginkgo]

Burn is pretty easy

Just know that any burn team that doesn't have Magic Bullet is simply worse than one that does

[outer wave]

Yeah I heard magic bullet is pretty strong

I dont have that version of Outis though

[sacred ginkgo]

The id itself is kinda mid

Dark Flame does all the heavy lifting

[outer wave]

She looks cool, she can hang

[sacred ginkgo]

Guns typically aren't used in the city because of their prohibitive costs and people can usually just deflect bullets anyway

It costs 400,000 dollars to run this team for 3 turns

[outer wave]

I wonder if that'll ever be explored: The Head and why they'd think guns make killing less meaningful when there's already so much of it that people are pretty desensitized to the violence

Or just generally The Head

[sacred ginkgo]

Its in ruina

They want violence to require effort

I love that a gay couple is one of the strongest teams in the game

[outer wave]

The gays are taking over Limbus Company.....

[sacred ginkgo]

I leave you with this

[outer wave]

Damnit Kira....

[sacred ginkgo]

I'm pretty sure they have actively altered her vocabulary between canto 9 and 9.5

[outer wave]

Id have to read Canto 9 and 9.5 to see what you mean, but considering how long it takes to make a canto and intervallo, wouldnt be surprised if her vocab changed up

[sacred ginkgo]

Remember how canto 4 is so long they added the option to skip stages

Well uhh

[arctic talon]

They shouldn’t have done that, it would have been funny

(It was absolutely the right decision)

[sacred ginkgo]

You are getting on the House of Spider's wild ride and you are not getting off until they say you can

[outer wave]

Im killing 10 billion Ringlets

10 billion Middle-ings

10 billiong Thumblings

10 trillion Indexians

And 5 Pinkies

[sacred ginkgo]

The in house composers have gotten soooo good

Just the story background music for canto 9 and 9.5 is actually incredible

It adds so much character to people

Like you got to hear the story music of the Fauvists in rodions uptie story

Its so fucking good

[outer wave]

I really like Rufo's battle theme

Rufo's is SO good

[sacred ginkgo]

I hate the fauvists because they make me attempt to read and pronounce French

[outer wave]

[opaque coyote]

Finally

The cat has gotten peace

[unique bronze]

got backshotted by abrams

[opaque coyote]

So

There is a side quest in Honkai Star Rail

That is literally just the Horus Heresy but replaced with Toilets

Here is the Emperor

Lorgar

Guilliman

[jade holly]

Big E overseeing construction of the Golden Throne

[opaque coyote]

Lion El Johnson

Horus

Khorne, Slaanesh, Nurgle, and Tzeentch

And finally the personal ending I chose

[daring creek]

tf is this

[opaque coyote]

Btw the funniest part about this entire quest is that it ends exactly the same whether you choose to Rebel or not.

Either way, the Toilet Imperium gets destroyed

Truly Grimdark™

[opaque coyote]

Honkai Star Rail has a side quest that's basically (minus like 9 Primarchs) the Horus Heresy but with Toilets

Also you know they're definitely a fan since they referenced Guilliman literally losing most of his 1v1s

Only weird part is Lorgar being part of the loyal ones and not Russ, Khan, or Dorn.

But I assume they did that purely to have a trashcan talk religious shit (literally)

Also

Lost opportunity to have traitor Primarchs like Alpharius and Omegon as toilets

[hallow saddle]

They didn't just file the serial numbers off, they decided to do a parody and satire better than GW themselves

Also, obligatory unexpected reference

very helpful lexicanum

[rancid cove]

Lowkey some times is because theres nothing else to mention

[solid horizon]

I am trying to understand what a hellwright exactly is

because uh

it's in the official GW list of legendary proxies

[rancid cove]

A lot of times GW themselves include vague as fuck descriptions in novels/codexes and call it a day

[solid horizon]

but like

the model has no model

all it says is that it can be used as a warpsmith

[storm jungle]

Thats literally all the lore they have lol

[solid horizon]

bruh

[storm jungle]

Lexi actually adds information when there is one

[unique bronze]

i notice sometimes the wiki mentions more, but uhh people dont like the wiki

[storm jungle]

its because they make up that information

[raven stone]

Sometimes they have (or had) the mini but have no lore even!

[solid horizon]

truly a mysterious unit

[storm jungle]

they've been caught for this multiple times

[rancid cove]

As I said GW themselves just don't give a fuck go add explanations, only that is exists and what it does and even then GW keeps it vague as hell

[storm jungle]

^

[solid horizon]

unit exists, but no model or lore

[raven stone]

Yes also a thing

[solid horizon]

top 10 GW twilight zone moments

[rancid cove]

Genuinely wiki just yap out of their ass + they don't update their shit properly

Read the Horus Heresy shit from the wiki and lexicanum and you'll see the difference

[storm jungle]

Like when it isnt a model sometimes a book just goes

"Ah a hellgineer, their job is to boost and upgrade Dark Mechanicum vehicles, be wary of them Brother Skibidius"

lol and thats it

[rancid cove]

Iirc wiki hasnt updated their HH category

[solid horizon]

I guess GW legally allows me to use whatever random tech priest as a warpsmith

[raven stone]

Some 3rd party supplier did try to plug the gap.

GW sued.

UK courts declared both parties are stupid.

And thus we have the modern era of GW packaging units with what is EXACTLY described on their datacards at 1:1 match

[storm jungle]

They have not in years

[raven stone]

That is the TLDR

[storm jungle]

even their Siege of Terra page is years old

[rancid cove]

Ah splendid

[storm jungle]

Lexi updated that shit in 1-2 weeks INSTANTLY once the final books released

the fandom page still has the old lore lmao

[unique bronze]

[rancid cove]

Lexicanum users speed reading the books so they could update the site

[raven stone]

When 1d6 chan does a better job at updating than the 40k fandom wiki too

[solid horizon]

Very helpful, brother librarian Wikipedius. I will remember this insightful teaching

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

you joke but i literally take screenshots to add to their respective pages when reading 40k stuff

check out the vindicare page, i added like SO much lore to that

yeah me and my friend Rabs love adding "who cares about this shit" lore to a lot of minor pages.

Prob the most fun part of 40k for me tbh

[solid horizon]

dilara was a monk in a past life

[rancid cove]

Shit I wish I was a chud like that lowkey seems fun

[storm jungle]

Learning the lexi format is a bit annoying but once you get the hang of it its very fun yeah

especially since other people do all the bigger work for marines and other factions while you can be like some background librarian just adding extra trivia to pre-existing pages

I still use GW paint because they are what I have, but all my new purchases are other brands

no offense to nuln oil and agrax, but GW washes kinda suck doo doo

[raven stone]

I mean, not even that, but I would have expected HH/AoS/Old World/LoTR/Munda/Blood Bowl

worst part btw

[storm jungle]

Apparently you can place the guts back if they arent torn etc

Looks over at the CIA inciting violence in marginalized places

Yeah the big rule of legal gang warfare is you cant aim your guns up just at your level and lower

And it keeps the peace in the upper and mid-hives (mostly)

Gotta wait till the Star Wars hyperfixation sneaks up on me

I was deep in star wars field when 40k just came back and hit me out of nowhere

Autism be damned

[vagrant fox]

No one told me the Zardu novel is out

I should kill

[storm jungle]

FYI its not that great

just a bit of a filler novella

[heady rivet]

Namelet name btw

[rancid cove]

I also gotta finish clone wars

[vagrant fox]

As long as it's mildly interesting

[storm jungle]

40k fan throwing shade at star wars names

meanwhile average 40k name

THREXOS HELLBREED

[heady rivet]

Wrong, I'm a Stewjon nationalist and I adore Star Wars naming conventions

[storm jungle]

Jerome Hellmaw = Gerontius Helmawr

[heady rivet]

I should Gerontius-max like that Gaddafi-maxxer

[storm jungle]

👎

[storm jungle]

I still cant get over how fucking badass Savage Opress is as a name when its literally just Savage Oppressor

its like growing up and realising Vader is just from Invader

[heady rivet]

Nominative determinism

[raven stone]

Actually I think that is from Dutch or sonething

Vader=father

Dark father

[storm jungle]

Gnomeism Yapping

[rancid cove]

Lowkey thought of stealing the name due to how cool it sounds

[storm jungle]

huh, that works too i guess

[storm jungle]

its like General Grievous

most people dont realise "Grievous" is an actual word lol

[heady rivet]

Pure concidence, as confirmed by George Lucas

He didnt know any Dutch

[storm jungle]

*He didn't know anything

[rocky gale]

Lucas plans for nothing

[heady rivet]

And yet it always works out babyyyyy

[rancid cove]

There's so many cool sounding names and stupid ones in Star Wars, it fits the setting
It's all space opera meant to have meaning stupid philosophical shit
Dramatic

[rocky gale]

And knows nothing and lies about 99% of the shit he says in interviews

[rose thorn]

Funny model

[raven stone]

Fire Emblem's Princess Eirika has two titles (one given by FE Heroes) that makes for awesome starship names.

Restoration Lady and Graceful Resolve

Granted not as brutal or militaristic but yet it works.

[heady rivet]

My favorite George Lucas fun fact is how he married a Black woman and then Black women love interests in Star Wars media skyrocketed and I choose to believe he was responsible despite all logic and proof otherwise

[storm jungle]

me when i steal all my teams ideas and take all the credit

[heady rivet]

Most of those ideas are shooting down his original ideas funny enough. He's like Kojima. He made an entire career off being the idea guy

[storm jungle]

Yeah because hes a fat fuck

[rocky gale]

Can someone post the Lucas autistic meme, I don't have it at hand on my phone

[heady rivet]

I like his little pendant

[rocky gale]

My favourite post of all time

[daring creek]

Black 9/11

[vagrant fox]

tell me about black 9/11, missus

[hazy arrow]

im sorry this is a bit off topic but theres this van that keeps parking outside opposite my house

and it has this logo on the side

im sorry but this makes me laugh its straight up genestealer shadow business shit

obviously they're plumbers but still

[crystal forum]

did you get to see their forehead though

[storm jungle]

this legit looks like some shit out of Cyberpunk lmao

you'd follow these guys back to their hideout after a anonymous tip and find they are like organ harvesters or something

that logo is SO suspicious

[crystal forum]

i think the funniest thing i've seen on a car is a company called SCP

[vagrant fox]

I trust them

[daring creek]

Drain surgeon is a fuckin name for sure

[storm jungle]

Out to scoop your brains

[fervent geode]

Just got back from Vet Chat

[celest dome]

A book series I follow (only Litrpg i've read as books) has a character that has the class "Gut Plumber", which is described as a Rogue with healing skills

[celest dome]

Don't

And leave that sort of things there

[fervent geode]

It’s hell I know

Just a taste of insanity

I don’t know how we got from power falchions to that

[vagrant fox]

Buff power falchions

[fervent geode]

That’s how it started iirc

Anyways lore question to throw off the insanity

[celest dome]

Does PFalchion need a buff ?

[fervent geode]

It feels worse than some of the other weaps at least in my opinion

Then again I only use chain shit

[fervent geode]

If Magnus hadn’t denied the Sixth Cult, would they have further doomed the legion or found out what the “tutelaries” really were?

For context this was the cult that found out about Magnus’ deals with daemons

[vagrant fox]

Probably not, just feels iffy to use for me

but I still use it sometimes

I don't know anything about the tsons other than them doing anything actively makes things worse, this is true lore

[fervent geode]

Tbh that’s usually true

I can’t believe what I am saying but Konrad Curze actually once made a better call (maybe we should destroy the evil dark magic psychic library) than Magnus during a joint compliance

Which is amazing

[vagrant fox]

Even a nutter like Curze gets one on occasion

[fervent geode]

It’s one against Magnus so he’s still bottom of the scoreboard

[rancid cove]

How can this fit into 40k

[celest dome]

[fervent geode]

-Kasperos Telmar probably

Otherwise known as the Radiant King in his Joyful Repose

Watch the bideo

The brownies are baking in the name of Aba da Don

From the sounds of my oven it really wants to be in NASCAR

[solid horizon]

I am currently coincidentally working on the base of my a bad don

big ole pile of skull on a 60mm base

[vital ginkgo]

What is the eldar equivalent to a power sword?

[vagrant fox]

A power sword

[summer mural]

uh

the latest boys episode left me unsettled

last 20 minutes were pretty good

[arctic talon]

Power sword
Force sword
Weird stuff that’s basically just a power sword

[vital ginkgo]

What is the name?

Does it have a different name?

Or just eldar power sword

[vagrant fox]

Depends on the aspect shrine a bit

[arctic talon]

Banshee blade, direblade, dragon axe, executioner, ghost(axe/glaive/sword), mirror swords

Also generic power sword/axe/spear

[vital ginkgo]

Ok thanks

[arctic talon]

There’s way more btw, I’m just lazy

I’m not listing out every aspect shrine melee 💀

[vagrant fox]

Lexicanum has a whole list anyways

[vagrant fox]

It was certainly something, I wanna see how this whole mess ends

It's getting weird

[jade holly]

How often do Phoenix lords communicate and work together?

Or are they more they just watch over their own groups

[arctic talon]

not very often

they're a "family"

the most disfunctional somewhat abusive psychotic family ever

lol

[vagrant fox]

They gang up when shit's going down bad

ish

There's that prophecy but Arhra fucked off and maybe founded the Incubii school of though knocks or sommat

[jade holly]

Asurmen being the eldest brother?

[arctic talon]

Arhra is absolutely drazhar

[arctic talon]

father more like it

[jade holly]

Maugan Ra the broody edgy younger brother I’m guessing

[celest dome]

Ok but which one is the cool weed uncle

[vagrant fox]

I think the swooping hawk one is the youngest

Most were born just before the fall of the Eldar Empire so it's hard to say iirc

[arctic talon]

prolly Lhykis because she's tripping balls on visions constantly

[vagrant fox]

Warp spider moment

[solid horizon]

im gonna kill meself

[dapper gyro]

Don't

Your life is valuable.

You can give me all of the stuff, then you can process further since you would no longer have value.

[solid horizon]

if you glue all the skulls i wont kill meself

[jade holly]

Aba da Don requires the skull tithe

[solid horizon]

It was originally supposed to be a big ole pile o mutilated corpses

but the store's stock for these is forever out

so i had to pick up skulls instead

I counted, all the bits + aba da don makes a total of 76 skulls

[plush mason]

just a few quintillion more to go and Khorne can finally be happy lmao

[steel ingot]

ah yes the skull boxes

it was fun seeing them in the hobbyshop and just being like wowie a dedicated skull box

wife said it would be funny to use them like bedazzling gems

How long do the average battles last in 40k?
Are the average battles in months or less than 5-10 years? How important are long-lasting years that might take 20-40 years?

[arctic talon]

It varies wildly

[storm jungle]

Literally "it depends" + "as long as the writers want"

you cannot mathematically predict how long a conflict is gonna last lol

[jade holly]

ARMAGEDDON NEVER ENDS 🗣️ 🔥

[storm jungle]

ye

[heady rivet]

As long as the story needs them to be

[storm jungle]

look at Ukraine

[plush mason]

its as varied as battles irl are afaik, some can be quick bouts others years long sieges

"the war will be over in 2 weeks, the russian army is monstrous"

If 40K were an MMO, Armageddon would be the dedicated PvP planet

Just nonstop drop in drop out PvP chaos

[plush mason]

i wonder how many people will exterminatus it in TW

[languid meadow]

https://www.kkinstagram.com/reel/DXsVE0fgvKU/ as long as the mmo doesn't have marines...

[jade holly]

NO MORE ARMAGEDDON 🗣️ 🔥

[languid meadow]

I don't think a 40k mmo can do marines well and keep it balanced with other classes because people would bitch

Swtor balances force users kind of but idk 40k fans are...

Different

[plush mason]

dark millennium was planning to but well

[languid meadow]

Death

[storm jungle]

Lmfao it would be like ARMA 40k mods

all those dumbass videos show marine players being badasses before they get torn apart by artillery barrages

or dying in the most embarrassing ways

you know, like actual war

[jade holly]

The new low lvl Marine players when I keep killing them with a max lvl DDA

[heady rivet]

Dawn of War Basilisks go brrrrrrrr

[plush mason]

hell i have seen marines in those mods get gunned down by enough lasgun fire, so frankly i really like them

[celest dome]

Eh, I could see it work if it's a basic SM.
And the other classes are Primaris Psykers, Higher ranked Sisters, some specific types of Assassins...

[storm jungle]

Yeah people *really *underestimate how easily marines can get killed

they are scarier when they have weapons/tactical advantage

otherwise they die like anyone else

[sacred ginkgo]

Rocks fall

Squad dies

[heady rivet]

Reminder that Morrow has a Marine kill through that

[jade holly]

Do any named commissars have a CSM kill to their name?

[sacred ginkgo]

Like

Most of them

[lament shoal]

Ciaphas Cain

[jade holly]

How the fu-

[heady rivet]

Ciaphas Cain literally 1v1s a Khorne Berserker and wins in melee

[heady rivet]

Main character

[jade holly]

I legit thought he was a full blown coward and falls upwards lmao

[storm jungle]

Plot Armor

[storm jungle]

Plot Armor

Cain is a cartoon character

[plush mason]

i swear i think people hear "superhuman demigods" and assume the marines are immortal, guess they dont know most demigods of myth died horribly in battle or tragically by their ownhand/other forces

[storm jungle]

Also correct

[celest dome]

Wasn't there a story of a human just killing a CSM cause they had a power weapon and the SM had a Chain weapon ?

[jade holly]

Demigods are immortal

just don’t ask how Maui died

[storm jungle]

because people dont wanna buy marines when they see them die like this KEKEKEK

FORCES ARE FEW-

their little egos get bruised

its why theres so much discourse when they see them die

[plush mason]

lmao

[heady rivet]

Marines, by design, die like lemmings. The entire lifestyle has no retirement

[storm jungle]

its literal out-of-universe propaganda lol

[heady rivet]

For everyone one guy tanking it all like 200 Marines get clapped

[sacred ginkgo]

Need some 40k version of that one fallout animation where the BoS just get ripped apart by some rangers in the hills

[celest dome]

Isn't it also in universe propaganda

[storm jungle]

Not talking about that

im saying most SM fans get outraged when they see marines die to normal things

like earth right now could wipe out a single Chapter lol

[steel ingot]

i love when space marines get chunked

[storm jungle]

me when predator drones and abrahms tanks

[steel ingot]

they deserve it but also like it goes to show even the mighty fall

[quiet orchid]

they're always mogged by normal things

[steel ingot]

like if anything has been made a point of fact across 40k its that the mighty fall

[heady rivet]

When the Imperial Fists line up in line formation with shields and we have 1000lb bombs

[sacred ginkgo]

20 dollar ied on a drone versus John babyeatericus, veteran of 1000 years

[storm jungle]

LMFAO

[steel ingot]

PUT THAT AWAY

[heady rivet]

Warhammer is a universe where Joe Guy can swing a chainsaw sword and it works, its not gonna apply to our universes logic and war

[storm jungle]

thats basically how most tau wars would go but we can never have them be competent against the imperium for some reason lol

[opaque coyote]

Honestly I was genuinely shocked on how much they stuffed into it. I feel like it should've caused some type of suing.

But then again, I would say the same between Dune and 40k.

[quiet orchid]

they about to extinction 3 times

[storm jungle]

As it turns out real war is way more casual, horrific and boring

[plush mason]

i wonder how they cope with the fact their faction is the human fighter of wargaming lol, the simple pick for the new player, hell thats the whole reason the space marines became so prominent in the first place afaik

[jade holly]

“Oh they’re lining up”

“Well they’re excited”

[storm jungle]

if 40k was realistic a space marine Chapter Master would literally get hit by a drone strike out in the field and instantly killed

[heady rivet]

Tau fight the Ukraine war and the Guard is fighting WW2. Marines are larping medieval times

[steel ingot]

btw something i forgot about my wife calls space marines speems now

[storm jungle]

Basically lol

[storm jungle]

BASED

[languid meadow]

War is actually dark age blasting on big speakers with a respawn mechanic

[steel ingot]

so i will be calling them speems from now on

[storm jungle]

Speem

[sacred ginkgo]

Eldar server emote

Accurate

[opaque coyote]

SPEEM MARINZ

[steel ingot]

MONKEIGH

[plush mason]

the fact this is only a few degrees away from the space kings thing is funny as hell to me

[jade holly]

Make a White Scars successor that’s all dripped out riding in hot rods and blasting Motley Crüe, Mötorhead, Aerosmith

[steel ingot]

guys what way do you pronounce monkeigh

[plush mason]

those helmets have always looked stupid to me

[storm jungle]

Mon-kai

[steel ingot]

do you do it the classic dawn of war way of "Mon KAI" or the modern "monkey" way

[storm jungle]

its with "kai"

[heady rivet]

The correct way, mucker

[storm jungle]

rogue trader for some says it as "monki"

[sacred ginkgo]

Mon key

[storm jungle]

which is stupid

lol

[jade holly]

It’s a pun on the Irish word for human I believe

[sacred ginkgo]

According to yrliet

[jade holly]

Which is Moncai

[storm jungle]

rogue trader says it wrong

[jade holly]

or something like that

[steel ingot]

ive seen it a couple times outside of rogue trader as monkey

[storm jungle]

its mon-kai

[steel ingot]

which bothers me

[plush mason]

the only space marine helmet i like save the GK one is the mk10

[queen laurel]

y rielet is an goated assassin but she drives me insane every time she says the word

[steel ingot]

monkai just sounds cooler and more eldary

[storm jungle]

ye

yeah because it is

"monki" is goofy af

Master Oogway ahh

[storm jungle]

you

[storm jungle]

its 40k

[heady rivet]

And Abelard

[storm jungle]

everyone gets that privelage

[steel ingot]

anyways yeah but like the element of the mighty being felled is one of my favorite aspects of 40k, these huge hulking war machines meant to level the playing field being totaled in battle, furthering the chaos, space marines being deployed only to be killed, its the grinding grim horrible war future of course your baneblade blew up stupid ass

[storm jungle]

Muted

[storm jungle]

yeah but the problem is

imperial fans got fragile egos

see custodians

[steel ingot]

I like to see the baneblade explode

[heady rivet]

Abelard, induce testicular mutation growths in her and then rip them off

[storm jungle]

🔇

Boring

[jade holly]

Who wins:
Century old skyscraper sized mech with a deafening warhorn

Or

One funny little arrow wielded by a grumpy geriatric robot

[sacred ginkgo]

Custodians when I drop a grenade in the back of their collar

[storm jungle]

LMAO

IM GLAD IM NOT ALONE ON THAT

I hate that armor design SO MUCH

im always like "what if a grenade landed behind their head"

fucking basketball hoop

[sacred ginkgo]

Gsc would sooooo do that

[heady rivet]

Nah they'd dodge it

[storm jungle]

Nah they'd get backshots

[sacred ginkgo]

Have like 5 goons hold them down and then climb up there and drop one in

[steel ingot]

like this design flaw is mentioned in why the errant armor was never used in greater numbers

the BULLET CAGE

what this one

[steel ingot]

i love this art

[storm jungle]

ALL THAT BRAWN FOR NOTHIN

I thought I didn’t make that a reply

[heady rivet]

When you stab a Custodes but only hit her ||(woke)|| brain

[steel ingot]

like sure part of me likes the grand stories of speems coming together and facing down a greater foe but like part of me will always enjoy more the true nature of 40k, big ass dudes dying and falling over

shoutouts to when titans get felled in the books

always cool

[lament shoal]

Skill issue, our darktide characters could win that easy

[jade holly]

If an Overlord is skilled enough with a translocation shroud, are they just impossible to hit in combat?

[steel ingot]

pictured darktide hive scum taking on a death guard who did not think it was gonna be that hard

[jade holly]

like they just keep phasing in and out after every strike

[steel ingot]

a detail about this pic that REALLY makes it for me is the service studs on this guy, this is a warrior of 100+ years

he's got two 50 year studs on his forhead

and now he's dying to these dorks

get fucked

[daring creek]

Hes so clean

[plush mason]

i like the hat of the guy stabbing him with a spear

[steel ingot]

in the weak joints too

[vagrant fox]

Castellans of The Rift are UM descendant so silver studs don't necessarily mean 50 years

[steel ingot]

under the chestplate its a good spot to go

[vagrant fox]

but bozo's getting owned anyways

[steel ingot]

i thought silver was 50 then gold was 100

or am i mixing my chapter stuff up

[vagrant fox]

for dark angels

UM have gold for 50

[steel ingot]

auorgh

the gay marines yes

i have a friend who just keeps telling me with no evidence the dark angels are the gay pride marines and im just letting him have it

[vagrant fox]

It's very vague

[steel ingot]

its kinda funny

[celest cedar]

oh nah that boy boutta get his face carved up

[steel ingot]

its funny there's a part in the first book of the nl trilogy where this blood angel in pure darkness takes his helm off because "i work better without its confines" and then immediately gets his head caved in cause he couldnt see

space marines are morons lmao

[heady rivet]

There's a legend that near GW headquarters in Nottingham in the 80s was a gay bar called The Rock or something

https://tenor.com/view/anton-chigurh-no-country-for-old-men-coin-flip-call-it-true-gif-8722415756466710272

[rocky gale]

I believe it

[solid horizon]

lionel johnson was a gay poet who wrote a gay poem called dark angel

[heady rivet]

That too

But I wanted to talk about gay bars

[solid horizon]

are you gay for cypher like a deathwing terminator

[steel ingot]

im gay for the lion

[solid horizon]

bro is gay for an old geezer

[vagrant fox]

nothing indicates that gay bar was real

[steel ingot]

tbf he's one of the more handsome primarchs, way more appeal than that bobby gooeyman

[heady rivet]

Yeah its bullshit but if I dont spread the legend who would?

[steel ingot]

we tell lies because its FUN

[vagrant fox]

Giving you a wet willie if you spread lies one more time

[steel ingot]

spreading misinformation is just a side effect

Do not forcefemme Lord Helmawr with your typo. Also its a Caryatid, its a little creature on Necromunda thats considered good luck if one attaches itself to you

His is named Blinky

[steel ingot]

okay sure

[heady rivet]

☝️🤓

[steel ingot]

you could totally lie to me about any detail in necromunda and i dont think it would sound of out place

[plush mason]

and Blinky again has more humanity than Helmawr

[heady rivet]

There's a whole gang implied to be the same guy from different alternate timelines

[steel ingot]

sounds real

[plush mason]

it actually is

[steel ingot]

SEE

[plush mason]

he is a heretek iirc

[steel ingot]

You could tell me ANYTHING

sweet

[heady rivet]

Wrong. He's a Van Saar

And they dont subscribe to the idea of progress bad

[steel ingot]

but yeah ever since i read some short stories about warp manifestations and stuff gellar fields breaking can do

[rancid cove]

Just asked because since the HH only took 10 years and looking at some big 40k events that take so little time despite their narration being so massive, it made me think that maybe it has an average

[steel ingot]

ive learned anything can happen in 40k

[plush mason]

oh, wasnt he kicked out though?

[crystal forum]

has anybody ever made a graph of the biggest honkers in 40k

Legally speaking, all of them are

like it really inspried me in making my chaos legion's lore where its slightly based on an old chaos legion story (iforget the one) where they were meant to relieve a hive city but it took them decades in the warp to make the travel that in realspace took minutes

purely scientific curiosity

[steel ingot]

and they came out as chaos legions

[steel ingot]

i just LOVE that anything can happen in the warp

[storm jungle]

people excuse that shit by just saying "oh traitors were rushing" lol

[steel ingot]

there's one where a cargo trawler crashes into a duplicate of itself and causes their gellar fields to break

and its implied that breakage causes it to duplicate in the first place

twilight zone ass freaky shit

[rancid cove]

I guess
Was thinking of narrating some events for my warband and going "oh but X stuff in canon only took this long- making this event last more than that seems overdoing"

[steel ingot]

i love it

So it has been

Bothering me

Just do what you want

the HH was a comedically short event

most wars in 40k last centuries if not millenia

[heady rivet]

The Scouring lasted longer

[rancid cove]

It really should've taken like 70 years

[storm jungle]

Yeah basically

the writers legit just did not think it through lol

[rancid cove]

I mean even 9 years of battle can be massively horrifying if its constant battle like HH, where every day a new planet was being the target of massive deployment but even the

Short as hell

[steel ingot]

like what is this dawn of war

you just deploying and taking the planet in a couple days

[rancid cove]

The HH should've been 90 years at minimum me thinks

[crystal forum]

the great crusades too were relatively short

for how huge of an event it was

[steel ingot]

hh if it were realistic

[rancid cove]

Yeah, it also describes the Imperium suffering to deal with massive xenos empires for ages

Yet it was relatively short

[crystal forum]

anyways anything pre 40k is irrelevant

i say this as a HH fan

[rancid cove]

I guess

[steel ingot]

the horus heresy frustrates me

its such a rich bed of ideas for interesting stories

and those interesting stories just..

dont exist

at least in a satisfying way

[rancid cove]

They do, just very far between

Theres some gems

[solid horizon]

HH eliphas model when

[crystal forum]

the models look cooler and i dont like having to memorize the 100000 space marine chapters

i barely remember the legions

[steel ingot]

eliphas the inheritor of bitchassery

[rancid cove]

That's... concerning. There's a short amount of them

I get not remembering all chapters

But the legions are like, very easy to memorize

[steel ingot]

there's like what 6?

[crystal forum]

would you be able to tell me the lore of the alpha legion

[steel ingot]

[solid horizon]

[rancid cove]

No, because I don't really care for them
But I just know they exist

[rancid cove]

Yeah I just remember they exist and what's the main gimmick, thats all

I dont particularly care to learn all of their lore

[crystal forum]

[steel ingot]

i really really enjoyed dawn of war 2 co-op

it feels like it was built for it

[crystal forum]
