I thought of having an ancient DAoT era ship. A prototype that's trying to emulate the Star Trek type FTL rather than warp based

Some fucked up combo of Necron Tech and DAoT era human tech

I plan to have it as a "happy" ending for characters

The only happy ending you could possibly get in 40k

Escaping the Galaxy itself.

...and hoping you don't get eaten by nids lma

Even then it's mostly ambiguous in fate

[alpine star]

the silent king allegedly tried that

[opaque coyote]

Just at least has a chance for any type of hope vs none

[vagrant fox]

I mean, technically yes you can. Just not via warp travel

[alpine star]

a recent necron codex describes him waging war in other galaxies during his exile

[opaque coyote]

Imagine trying to live peacefully only for a robo skeleton appearing to start fucking up your planet

💀

from ANOTHER GALAXY

[opaque coyote]

I forgot exactly why warp travel isn't possible?

It's due to being too far from the astronomicon

and therefore equivalent to sailing blindly in a turbulent ocean

At least that's what I remember

[heady rivet]

At the time she was dating a wealthy failson whose first job was a nepobaby hire at the age of 26. He also had a poster of Mussolini in his closet and took her to fascist meetings as early dates. This may reflect poorly on my mother, but he wasnt an Italian fascist. He was just a fascist for the city of Florence and nowhere else. He wanted the city walled off and only "Pure Italians" could come in. He did give her the "You could come" pass, so she never took his political opinions seriously enough to be bothered by it

[alpine star]

the immaterium is also literally the afterlife. It is the realm of souls, of thoughts and of emotions. you don't have much of that in the void between galaxies, I would presume

[crystal forum]

you have to enter the warpussy in a more difficult position when far from terra

but experienced penetrators can navigate the folds easily

[heady rivet]

Tbf he was fighting Nids

[crystal forum]

makes you wonder how tf people went through the galaxy during the great crusades before the astronomicon

this, like many things, is never explained

@heady rivet im starting a stellaris match with overtuned origin. which traits should my species have

[heady rivet]

Another "Jay just says shit" moment because they literally had that during the Great Crusade

Powered by Big E

[heady rivet]

Well whats the Empire

[alpine star]

there was warp travel pre astronomicon and there is warp travel in the part of the galaxy cut of from the astronomicon. It is just harder, presumably

[opaque coyote]

He acted as a GPS for the entire Imperium during the Great Crusade.

[crystal forum]

suck dick

[opaque coyote]

If I remember correctly

[heady rivet]

Homophobia, reported

You're cooked, buddy

[crystal forum]

fanatic spiritualist going for becoming the crisis

[opaque coyote]

Which is also funny to imagine the Emperor's voice echoing in every navigator's mind during the GC

"TURN LEFT AT THE HELL SPIRE."

[crystal forum]

the only homophobia i express is my self hatred

[heady rivet]

You miss it and just hear "Rerouting...rerouting...turn right at the-rerouting..." meanwhile the screams from the deck below get louder

[tough haven]

Its always right at the best part in the astropathic chorus too

[vagrant fox]

Looking at it that might've been fanon, I think the Spirit of Eternity said it was just gonna leave the galaxy

[heady rivet]

Juiced Power and Fleeting Excellence

[tough haven]

Stellaris sounds cool

[vagrant fox]

Navigators and warp drives predate the Great Crusade, Emps just made it easier as a fixed navigation point when it had become harder to go gallivanting around ☝️ 🤓

[tough haven]

but it also sounds like a game that will consume my ability to play any other game

[crystal forum]

it might still be on sale

not sure

[solid horizon]

imma post this screenshot I just took, for no reason

[tough haven]

One does not play stellaris for a short time

[heady rivet]

Its so good. And a ton of DLC is being folded into base game at no extra cost

[crystal forum]

you can just buy the subscription and have a solid month of playability before getting bored

i do that with hoi4

since i never play more than a week

[heady rivet]

I am so hype for Nomads

[vagrant fox]

I just ahoy the DLC, Paradox can suck it

[crystal forum]

i hope nomads is as good as the robotics dlc was

but prob not

[heady rivet]

I have faith

It sounds good in theory and it sounds like they took a page from Endless Space with the wayline system

[tough haven]

So just buy the base game for 10$?

[vagrant fox]

I need a new Endless Space

my most beloved

[crystal forum]

i have endless space 2 but never played it

i shit you not i bought stellaris thinking it was endless space 2 after sseth made a video about it

best mistake i ever made

[heady rivet]

Absolutely. Then subscribe for a month and try all the DLC out for size

Or play a mutiplayer game

Hosted by someone with a ton of DLC

But I think that still blocks some Empire creation stuff

[crystal forum]

the game is also playable without dlc tbh

my first game was without dlc and it was great

[heady rivet]

Stellaris is the only game I know of that went back and patched more content into DLCs YEARS later

[crystal forum]

but that was many years ago

[tough haven]

How does multiplayer work, isnt stellaris a game that plays across a very long period of time?

[crystal forum]

back when the game ran better

[crystal forum]

trying to find friends who play for more than one session is the issue

[heady rivet]

\Yeah grand strategy game multiplayers are marathon sessions

Like I see 15 people "8 hours on a Saturday" games

[crystal forum]

the most common thing ive seen in stellaris multiplayer is significantly reducing the match times

because nobody in my friend circle wants to do week long sessions

i wish i had friends who understood that it's supposed to be an RP game

min maxing stellaris is so lame

anyways time to become the galactic emperor and create a class 30 singularity

[heady rivet]

I earned the Galactic Emperor achievement on my birthday

[lament shoal]

My dad was a big fan of his in high school, and he introduced me to his music a couple years ago. His song Rebel Yell was what inspired me to come up with the homebrew too

Great song

[crystal forum]

galactic emperor is one of the coolest niche mechanics

i wish it had more depth but still it's so fun to game the galactic senate

[crystal forum]

the billy idol song?

[lament shoal]

Ye

[crystal forum]

[lament shoal]

My dad wanted to bleach his hair like him lmao

[crystal forum]

80's was so fucking gay

[solid horizon]

rockstar stage names/real names are good inspiration for warhammer names considering warhammer used to be very heavy metal

[lament shoal]

Fr lol, its great

[solid horizon]

my black legion terminator lord/abaddon proxy is named after the Deep Purple guitarist who coincidentally used to be nicknamed the man in black

whose last name is blackmore 💀

now I kinda wanna get a noise marine squad, paint them as black legion and give the officer an inquisitor hat

to 0-3-5 space marines to death

but im already throwing my scarce money away for my all-vehicle chaos legion 😔

[crystal forum]

please for the love of god just get a cheap 3d printer

vehicles are the easiest things to print with filament

[solid horizon]

Im talking about daemon engines

[crystal forum]

nvm then

heathen

[solid horizon]

yeah for rhinos and stuff thats what ill do

but for now

recast 👲🏻

[rocky gale]

https://klipy.com/gifs/we-dont-care--k01KQZT19D0M891M0ENFN01BR8N

[heady rivet]

3D Printer enthusiasts will be like "Yeah if you spend 800 dollars on a good printer and filament you wont waste 100 bucks buying something from GW" like everyone in the world is playing Apocalypse rules and constantly needs new minis coming in daily

Like most people that would get a 3D printer would let that thing sit for a LONG while and most likely would never make it "worth" it. Its why 3D Printer owners are always "Hey need anything printed?" because they need to justify owning it to themselves

[solid horizon]

apocalypse is fun

but printing only works for decors and large vehicles

imperial brick tanks

[crystal forum]

lord forbid somebody tries to help others save money

also you can get a used filament printer for around 50 bucks

be informed

[surreal nest]

its almost time for the yearly darktide and helldiver fans to collectively freak the fuck out over swedish summer vacation

[vagrant fox]

The nefarious Swede, they start wars, they fuel wars

1000 years of war with the Danes and then they claim to be peaceful

Sweden has really good workers rights so they have summer breaks

and winter ones

from June to August

so we'll get one big update I presume before that

and it WILL be buggy and we'll have to deal with that for a couple months

[crystal forum]

how dare they have worker rights

[languid meadow]

true

everyone must be slaves to corpos

[crystal forum]

if i played darktide or helldivers 2 i'd be so mad

i'll go complain on twitter about the west having fallen again

[dapper gyro]

To be fair, us Canadians have it pretty good.

[languid meadow]

do we?

idk man I'm in corpo heaven over here

[crystal forum]

not from my experience

[dapper gyro]

Oh, you are not in the east...

[crystal forum]

unless you compare to the US

[languid meadow]

it's the closest one I think we should

also makes us superior once again even if by a lil

[crystal forum]

comparing to the US is like the US comparing itself to third world countries

you can always find a much shittier country

[languid meadow]

glorious

[dapper gyro]

At least for me, when I used to work as machinist and then construction, it was pretty good in term of service and salary.

[languid meadow]

I know QC and I think Manitoba has good workers rights but I can't speak on like

the atlantics

or ontario but those people are weird

[dapper gyro]

Like, even above European standard.

[crystal forum]

i just go to the US these days to get cheap alcohol

or to visit my traitorous american sister

[languid meadow]

wanted to visit some friends but still too paranoid of the burgercore searching my phone just because they felt like it

[crystal forum]

hasnt happened to me so far

i dont have face ID though on purpose

it's password only

[languid meadow]

my phone is old enough to not have that lol

[crystal forum]

make sure to not have the fingerprint thing either

and shut down your phone before getting to the checkpoint

[dapper gyro]

I hear that some of them take that as resisting the authority.

[crystal forum]

but chances are they wont search you unless your name is muhammad

[lament shoal]

Fs is a Swedish company?

[dapper gyro]

Though, 2nd experience, take it as a grain of salt.

[languid meadow]

I'll probably be fine since I would be going to Washington state which is more chill than the rest of the nation

that or anywhere in the PNW

[crystal forum]

if the border guy wants to see my thousands of dick pics then he can do it as much as he wants

[dapper gyro]

Vermont is pretty chill.

[languid meadow]

should annex vermont and buffalo

also jesus what did they do to fox

graphics in 2013 looking ass

[crystal forum]

borders are federal

which is also why you cant bring weed across any border

because it's still illegal federally

[languid meadow]

yeah but the people living and working there would be chiller since im not fucking driving that distance

the airport people

[crystal forum]

oh airport

yeah thats different

it's much chiller

since you already pass through security

my parents got me nexus when i was a kid and it's great

skip all the lines

[rose thorn]

Hey does any other codex have a soup army detachment in the codex besides gsc?

[arctic talon]

DG/WE/Tsons/EC with Daemons of their same god because GW made them specific detaches for some reason

Bonus detaches for: Knights, Chaos Knights, Nids

[rose thorn]

The nid one was a gsc one

[arctic talon]

No nids got one the other end

[rose thorn]

It’s under “gsc”

[arctic talon]

its just ass

Iirc

[rose thorn]

They got their own final day?

[arctic talon]

Wait nvm

It just makes Genestealers battleline

lol

[rose thorn]

Lmao

Also aren’t the soup demon rules in the mono god marine codexes?

[arctic talon]

I literally seperated them because of that

[rose thorn]

oh lol

[surreal nest]

@storm jungle idk if you've seen this but you're welcome

[quiet orchid]

I saw this today on reddit

[daring creek]

Can a guardsmen get in trouble for showing his superior that something in his corpse starch is moving

[fervent geode]

depends on the regiment and the superior

[daring creek]

Say

cadians

[rose thorn]

visual novels are hell of a drug god damn

after playing every danganropa game back to back its like

" i miss 40 hour logn visual noves."

[dapper gyro]

Generally no, because it is not supposed to. If the rations go bad, then there are bigger issues, which most reasonable officers, even by 40K standard, would have a look at.

[fervent geode]

probably not, Cadian officers are pretty strict when need be but they are reasonable

[arctic talon]

no

[languid meadow]

Corpse starch has been flanderized for decades

Pretty sure we know that majority of a guard ration is not that at all

Yeah biscuits and gruel for in the field rations

And probably better stuff while on ship

The only people who really eat corpse starch are usually in hives

[fervent geode]

yeah coz its grim and dark and sick sounding

ergo flanderisation

like exterminatus

just yesterday someone asked why the imperium doesnt exterminatus all sept worlds and the eye of terror

[languid meadow]

Also one of the few shows of care the imperium gives is in the gruel

It's so shit that they say don't fucking eat this if you don't have to

Catachan refuses to issue you it to their troopers

Because of how they operate plus how shit it is

[heady rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/drake-computer-notebook-explaning-gif-21152267

[fervent geode]

WHY DON'T THEY EXTERMINATUS THE CHAOS GODS???

[dapper gyro]

Most exterminatus options in 40K are kind of slow compared to most other sci-fi settings.

People hear too much of the over the top shit that they don't know how awful most of the imperium tech is.

Even star wars star destroyers can turn a planet into a dead world faster than most exterminatus methods.

[timid pasture]

Cuz the imperium doesn’t have to destroy whole planets all that much

Usually…i think

[crystal forum]

it's cool when it happens

[crystal forum]

god i love danny devito

[daring creek]

isn't one of them just mass sternilization

[jade holly]

An Exterminatus is nowhere near instant ain’t it?

And is a MASSIVE use of resources

[dapper gyro]

Hence the "options" and "methods". Most of them don't involve planet destruction. Making a planet inhabitable is an option for exterminatus.

[dapper gyro]

Very much

[crystal forum]

depends on the method

one is literally just cracking open a planet

which is pretty quick

[jade holly]

I can’t wait for Dead as Disco to come to console

It looks so good

‘And the eye of terror’

Not really sure a cyclonic torpedo would have much of an effect on an Eldritch rent from reality into a conceptual realm of emotions

[jade holly]

Just poke it in the eye

[fervent geode]

The guy reckoned they could blow it up

So uh

We told him that’s not how the warp works and it was mind blowing apparently

[crystal forum]

there's a mechanicus novella where they find a bomb that explodes the warp

and gets rid of it

it was something like the empyrean bomb

[fervent geode]

Psyk out shit

Mortarion approved

[crystal forum]

but turns out the bomb actually just displaces the warp

[jade holly]

Just ask Szarekh to set up more nexuses smh

[crystal forum]

wait lemme finish

[fervent geode]

Okok

[crystal forum]

so they use the bomb on an infested mechanicum world

that's been ruined by the warp

the bomb works as intended, the world is returned to realspace and all demonic activity on it is destroyed

[jade holly]

So basically: they take the warp, and push it somewhere else?

[crystal forum]

however, the STC didn't tell the mechanicus guys that the bomb would put all that warp shit where the bomb was created, which was the forge world they came from

so they came back all triumphant only to find their home reduced to a warp tear in reality

[crystal forum]

yeah

but this is archeotech bullshit

only found in one book

i think the most surprising part of that novella is that a traitor gets all the chaos purged from his body by being pushed against the bomb

[fervent geode]

Amazing

Basically void tech bomb

arent those the black lightsaber things

Yeah the darksabre

Or smth

idk they come from the animated show so im ignorant

[winged silo]

I do not like the Iron Hands.

The Iron Warriors are significantly better.

[fervent geode]

For all his faults Ferrus Manus does not beat his children into boxes and decimate them

Nor did he send Santar or DuCaine to die in suicide missions, or exile them for speaking out of turn

I hate both legions but I hate IW significantly more

At least the Iron Hands’ Deep Operation Tactics actually work better than “Corpse Grinding”

The Death Guard are a better endurance legion than the Iron Hands, they made the flesh strong

The Iron Warriors can go die after the throw the last corpses to be ground

Anyways, I’d read Guymer’s IH novels and the Ferrus Primarch book, they give a better perspective on the IH

[winged silo]

I said I like the Iron Warriors, not that I like Perturabo.

Also Iron Cage.

Current era Perturabo is also good, because he had character development.

[fervent geode]

I mean he’s still full of hate

And bitterness

As per reign of iron

He just likes Honsou since Honsou thinks differently and gets shit done, he was still going to kill Honsou in warbreed if he lost the last game

[fervent geode]

P: I am building a trap
D: That is a trap, all of you will charge it

Actually now that I think about it

For his petulant manchildery he has a Killer intellect

Lore question

Is there anything on the presence of warrior lodges in loyalist legions besides the WS and RG

[celest dome]

In 40k or HH ?

[fervent geode]

HH

Idt there have been many lodge like institutions in chapters though so if those exist I’m still interested to hear about it

[storm jungle]

You can make a lodge-like organisation for homebrew because conceptually it is a good idea, the problem was the concept was poisoned by the WB for 30k.

also really good question because uh

https://www.reddit.com/r/40kLore/comments/1bqdav0/loyalist_legions_and_the_warrior_lodges/

Seems like the topic itself was barely established for the loyalist legions lol, convenient

[fervent geode]

Annoying lol

Even if the loyalist primarchs prob wouldn’t have approved the generally establish themselves

[shadow plover]

iirc in one of the early books said something about which legions had them and why some didn't but I can't recall what it was

[fervent geode]

I’ve tried to do “gangs” for the NL lol

[fervent geode]

I think it was outright banned in some

[shadow plover]

It was yes

[fervent geode]

ie the RG situation

[winged silo]

https://tenor.com/view/another-easy-steal-steal-gif-gif-steal-gif-gets-stolem-gif-7935542554022949277

[fervent geode]

[storm jungle]

yeah the entire region Lodges exist is to speedrun traitor legions to fall faster so no surprise loyalists barely had em as they are just one-dimensional good guys

[fervent geode]

To be fair the WB were sabotaging pre existing ones so I kinda don’t like how the authors flanderised them into evil cult meeting when really it was like a literal social club lol (Targhost, Tarik and even Mortarion already explain why they could just exist)

Although yeah the social clubs became dens of SoH and Horus sympathisers but still for WS and RG

[winged silo]

Anyone got any ideas for a Space Marine chapter mutation? I wanna make one, 21st founding.

[hallow plover]

Common sense

[storm jungle]

Yeah as i said the idea of Lodges is a very good one, you can literally put out or discuss any grievances without a matter of rank

the problem is its like therapy

aka people dont like being told the truth

lmfao

[fervent geode]

Crab arms

[fervent geode]

Yeah I guess I’m kinda sadge that they didn’t do anything with it, but ngl it’s Warhammer so that was kinda inevitable

[fervent geode]

Also goons like Varren and Garro going “hurr durr we spess mehreen should just be loyal no need talk about it”

[storm jungle]

Lmao exactly, worst part is thats prob the most realistic part of that entire thing.

Im literally dealing with an exact issue like this at work rn because a manager told a chef that they didnt cook something right in the rudest way imaginable, the chef talked him back and now it turned into an entire gossip column lmao

People literally can never almost just clear up issues or talk face to face and always gotta make an molehill

[fervent geode]

Exactly, the SoH made a good case for it that it’s helpful where the men and the ranks can actually resolve their issues instead of “Grulgor hates Garro lol” infinite gossip column

[storm jungle]

LMAO exactly yea

Talk-no-jutsu ironically can help with many things

[fervent geode]

I get why it could be a little questionable in a military context of strict organisation but tbh the lodges already had a lot of officers in charge so like what’s the problem atp

[alpine star]

tbf, space marines are also recruited and first send onto the field as literal teenagers, so, we also gotta factor childhood trauma into this

[fervent geode]

Even Loken was warming up to it

[storm jungle]

Yeah tho it fits with Astartes because they are literally monks

[storm jungle]

tbh childhood trauma has nothing to do with it

we have US militarymen rn that are as childish in high ranking positions

people will always be upset over something petty no matter what, even when you arent an asshole type of person

[winged silo]

Horus Heresy era Perturabo reminds me of Bad Cop from the Lego movie.

[storm jungle]

tbh he basically is

[fervent geode]

Ye true

[winged silo]

Yeah.

[fervent geode]

Yeah

[alpine star]

the lodges were a way for them to socialise among themselves, but it also accelerated the development of space marine superiority ideologies. Plus, anyone who has ever been involved in organising self help groups knows that you gotta have some way to keep things from spiralling into a hellpit of negativity

[alpine star]

sure, but it influences how they handle that confrontation and the extremity of the outcomes

[fervent geode]

Tbh the Astartes supremacism was getting prevalent even without that and some of them (Tarik, Aximand) did serve as “checks” on the lodges iirc

The SoH were already discontent with the bureaucratic reform they were just able to talk about it

[vagrant fox]

Some sensible chads like Macer Varren banned them for their companies, but it's a woefully underrepresented thing in loyalist legions

[fervent geode]

Wait

Varren is a Weater no?

[vagrant fox]

Yea

Anything that screws my blorbos is a good thing

[fervent geode]

But yeah I’d like more in loyalist legions smh

Varren and Garro banned them in their legions

Corax sent all the members to die at Gate 42

Loken iirc banned them but before the Karkasy incident Tarik warmed him up to them and made him a member

Then Tarik quit lol

[vagrant fox]

In 20 years we should have a total rewrite of the HH that fixes everything I don't like about it

[fervent geode]

I agree with this statement

The Horus Heresy should also be cut down to the following

[shadow plover]

https://klipy.com/gifs/monkeys-paw-paw-1--k01KR16E38S8V26C8748206V5W7

(it will be all written only by Nick Kyme)

[vagrant fox]

At least it would be consistent

[rocky gale]

Horus Heresy will be abolished and replaced with a WHF series titled The Boris Bereavement

[fervent geode]

Horus Rising
False Gods
Galaxy in Flames
Flight of the Eisenstein
Fulgrim

All other novels should be decanonised

[queen laurel]

-ly boring

[vagrant fox]

same thing

[fervent geode]

Kislev crime series

[vagrant fox]

I would commit great atrocities for a whf crime series

[vagrant fox]

Add TEATD and double its length

[storm jungle]

GW be like

Make peak subseries with Horror/Crime
Leave them un-attended for years

[shadow plover]

peak doesn't sell 😔

[fervent geode]

Unfortunately wh crime has no Astartes slop

[fervent geode]

Fine but every siege of Terra book except Warhawk is replaced by black book 10 Terra

[vagrant fox]

shure why not

I really should be in charge of GW

[fervent geode]

We should gather a bunch of people and do a march on Nottingham

[vagrant fox]

I would show Tom Kirby just how badly you can kill a company

[storm jungle]

black book 10 Terra

god

I miss Alan Bligh so much

[vagrant fox]

I would mandate a minimum of 1 warhammer crime 1 warhammer horror from each writer every year

[fervent geode]

Gone and never forgotten, we’ll never get such peak rulebooks again

[storm jungle]

it really says a lot how the moment he died FW basically crashed lol

now all the modern HH rulebook lore is just... mid

[fervent geode]

It’s barely even there

3e books are so barebones now

[vagrant fox]

He helped with all of the FFG TTRPGs and they cooked so hard it's unbelievable

[fervent geode]

Imperial Armour

[vagrant fox]

some of the editing and rules consistency aside

[fervent geode]

It’s fucking dead now

Fires of Cyraxus still burning on somewhere

[rocky gale]

Hey WarCom can we get anything interesting today?

[vagrant fox]

just pages from the black books

[rocky gale]

Boke

[fervent geode]

For RG smh

[rocky gale]

Mank

[vagrant fox]

I'm having a moment

what's this thing again

[fervent geode]

Javelin

I think

[vagrant fox]

yes

how luverly

Imperial armour design just does not make sensible cockpits

[storm jungle]

this man's works are still being talked about 15 years later yea

[fervent geode]

It’s cool tho so it’s chill

[storm jungle]

Vraks and Badab are tour de forces of 40k writing

meanwhile all other warzones GW writes pages of lore for are barely mentioned ever lmao

[vagrant fox]

The sensible design 'tism scratching at the back of my brain will never like it but I also think it's cool so it's w/e

[fervent geode]

Basically my mind on grav bikes

[vagrant fox]

I'm pretty sure Alan Bligh came up with the Tyrant Star thingy didn't he

It's cool to see the ideas live on in the crpgs at least

[fervent geode]

Ye I think it was him ye

[hallow plover]

You forgot the nth return to armageddon

And even after cadia blew up, the cadian gate is still a battleground

[storm jungle]

yeah an entire warzone codex made to setup Yarrick summoning space marines to armageddon

😭

[fervent geode]

Cadian Gate being a battleground at least works coz there are still loyalist worlds holding on around those parts

[vagrant fox]

Agripinaa my goated

beat those iron chuds

[fervent geode]

Outnumbered IH and Ghuld have already beat IW to a draw there

[rancid cove]

Trying to think a way to say something in here that won't get me reported again, shits hard

[fervent geode]

Slander Dark Angels

[rancid cove]

I can't slander them that well since im adding those cunts to my warband's lesser culture

[fervent geode]

Slander Alpha Legion

Everyone hates Alpha Legion

Sorry Akurra and Occam and Kassar

[rancid cove]

That is true
I thought of adding AL on my warbands culture due to their massive scale deployment aside from the confusion tactics and use of mass deployment n shit but i dont wanna add too much

[fervent geode]

My warband has killed many AL

ATP they’ve taken a lot of randos into the ranks but no AL somehow lol

[rancid cove]

Might make mine have killed a lot of other chapters and legions, but probably a more dominant rivalry with the BA, DA and the UM

[solid horizon]

fight the poster boys 🥀

[rancid cove]

BA because they got a lot of stolen gene-seed during the Siege and because a notorious member of the warband had ties with a high ranking BA which created a chapter solely to fighting the warband and keep them at bay (or at least try)

DA because a lot of the fallen has joined them

UM cause of numbers and massive scale operations

[solid horizon]

UM are hard to fight because they have massive plot armor

[rancid cove]

Thats true
Thats why most of my warbands failures have been against the UM + the sheer quantity of them

[solid horizon]

my cult/warband nearly eradicated a whole chapter

it's near extinct now

they are not trying to stop the cult until they get reinforcement

[rancid cove]

Oh mine has also brought some chapters to near extinction and has even killed off maybe 2 or 3 of them
Problem is with the UM theres a lot more cohesion between other military forces and chapters

[solid horizon]

well technically mine has 2 chapters on its counter

one of them was supposed to defend the forgeworld against heretics and xenos

but their numbers disappeared progressively over time and the remaining brothers were captured and forced to work in the soulforges, exposing themselves to dark forces

[rancid cove]

I'm a bit unsure of how many to add to my warbands kill count, i think 2-3 might be enough
Despite them being a legion-proxy size and being around ever since the HH

Thinking that adding more will make it excessive

[solid horizon]

well yeah chapters aren't exactly easy to kill either

they are still very disciplined advanced military forces contrary to most chaos warbands

[rancid cove]

Yeah thats what I mean

[fervent geode]

Mine has killed one chapter, stole their gene seed, UM (Ashen Consuls)

[rancid cove]

Typic

[fervent geode]

9th Cohort actually has a pseudo rivalry with another homebrew WS Successor, the Night Stormers

[rose thorn]

I PASSED ALLNMY CLASSESASS

[fervent geode]

Congrats chief

[languid meadow]

Hell yeah

Freedom

[fervent geode]

Idk why but is Om Nom actually considering the 2nd one

[opaque coyote]

To me it's more like confusion

Since like

Om Nom probably doesn't know what a porn is

[fervent geode]

To me it looks like he’s weighing the options

[rancid cove]

I wish I knew the numbers of cohorts/chapters/battalions like that to bolster the writing of my warband like that
But keeping shit vague has also helped a lot so it might be better to just not go into heavy details

[fervent geode]

I’ll be real besides the UM (ofc it’s them), IH and partially DG and Ksons idt any other legion went into their further structure/organisation

So we have to live in vagueness

[storm jungle]

im pretty sure every single Black Book has explored every legion

[fervent geode]

Yeah but

Not the organisation sheet

What’s above the company level

[storm jungle]

Not a literal sheet but they outright basically spell out the ranks iirc

[fervent geode]

Do Nlords even have chapters??

[fervent geode]

Ranks is no problemo

[rancid cove]

Dude my jobs system is still down since yesterday

Whole day of doing nothing at work

[fervent geode]

Until we get to the funny stuff

Are all consuls of equal rank?

Why is the centurion title changing every Tuesday

[storm jungle]

all Legions do, they just have edgy names

[fervent geode]

Is a Force Commander (Beloth) outranking or downranking or equal rank to Lord Commander? (Shang)

[fervent geode]

I figured they are the “Cohorts” occasionally mentioned

[rancid cove]

There is some info about organization as far as I am aware but I mean shit like
"Oh yeah the 965th battalion which consisted of the X chapter. This was the home of the 9182737squad which was-" you know what I mean?

[fervent geode]

But if you read the novels and the later black books you’d have no idea

Because they never used it

[rancid cove]

They did follow the Principia Belicosa a little they just changed the name of shit to make it edgier

[fervent geode]

I assume WB and UM follow the same organisation

[fervent geode]

They did

But like we rarely hear about anything Nlord beyond the company level

Unlike WB or UM

Anyways thankfully Lorgar and Guilliman are both fucking accountants

So here

[rancid cove]

I feel like this is more of a writers choice to not explore it rather than them lacking it

[fervent geode]

This is from Tempest I think

[fervent geode]

Curse you ADB

[rancid cove]

Yeah

[fervent geode]

You did it for Word Bearers

[opaque coyote]

I mean aren't they basically a bunch of criminals turned into super torturers

Seems kinda rowdy to horde into groups

[fervent geode]

Yeah, but there are nobles and tacticians among them too

[opaque coyote]

Then again I don't know if World Eaters got similar like

Stuff

[fervent geode]

They should have Cohorts led by Regents

But it’s never explored

Each of the Kyroptera is also a Praetor

But at the same time there are praetors outside the Kyroptera

[opaque coyote]

Cause if World Eaters have details beyond the company level

Then the NLords should also have that

[fervent geode]

Like Lord Commander Shang and Praetor Nakrid Thole

[fervent geode]

They have Chapters

[rancid cove]

I'm using this plus other shit in the Liber Hereticus and the Black Books to organize me warband due to their enormous size
Currently I have "finished" writing their overview (might go back to it, add/remove and edit it a bit) and soon I'm doing their culture which will be BIG.
I want to separate it in "Warmongers universal culture" and then make "Major Cultural Impacts" which are separated by legions and yadda yadda
Shits gonna be LENGTHY

[fervent geode]

They do but it’s never explored or really shown much

[opaque coyote]

Yeah definitely a case of writers hating definite numbers

[fervent geode]

Same, but I’ve basically used the Sevatar organisation

[opaque coyote]

Since every writer hates having definite numbers

[rancid cove]

They were organized smh, they just used Nostraman gang symbols and had edgy names to shit instead of standard practice

[fervent geode]

Big ass Cohort taking many companies

[opaque coyote]

Yeah but like

Gang wars

[fervent geode]

As par the course

[opaque coyote]

[fervent geode]

They weren’t allowed to have gang wars in the legion

People who did that got killed

Honour duels for rank were allowed but regulated

If you didn’t deserve the rank you got killed

[opaque coyote]

Tbf whenever numbers do come up. It's usually wrong

Either from the author's lack of knowledge, a mistake in scale

Etc.

[fervent geode]

Remember when like 12 Deathwing Paladins held off 100 Justaerin

[opaque coyote]

Which 40k have a lot of

[fervent geode]

Fucking crusade numbers lol

[opaque coyote]

I add like

Two zeros by default

Everytime solid numbers come up

Since like

It takes place in a fucking Galaxy

[fervent geode]

Not always tbh, sometimes they just don’t get it esp for elite formations

[opaque coyote]

I know SMs are meant to be few but the estimated number is just

Too few

[fervent geode]

For big ass battles between the scrubs sure though

[opaque coyote]

[fervent geode]

There aren’t 10000 Justaerin and if there were 1200 paladins would still die to them

[opaque coyote]

True

This is just like

A generalist type thing

[fervent geode]

But yeah in general that works a lot

[storm jungle]

galaxy is big

the Chapter numbers make complete sense

[rancid cove]

I still choose not to believe the numbers given to us by novels and shit because those are always changing

I like keeping it vague

Better for storytelling and pulling shit out of your ass

[opaque coyote]

Man I wonder why there's honor duel requests between two specific groups, must've been the wind

[fervent geode]

Yeah roughly lol

[fervent geode]

It’s like weird and random

And NL honour duels are really bereft of honour

If you kill the guy you win, do whatever you want

Which tbh works

[rancid cove]

Because if I end up writing my warband and trying to think for a number of astartes for them
It might be too small considered the fuckass writing imma make for their cultural practices and organization

[opaque coyote]

I guess it doesn't like

Allow people to get jumped?

And that's the extent

[rancid cove]

1v1 but anything goes

Throw pocket sand to blind them

[opaque coyote]

Yeah sounds about right

[rancid cove]

And shit like that

[opaque coyote]

What about trapping the planned arena

Since honor duels usually state

A time and place

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/northernlion-nl-freak-freaky-streamer-gif-11439842509500736728

[rancid cove]

I mean honor in a duel is also a dumb ass concept
Like yeah man I won't do something that gives me advantage and let myself get killed

[fervent geode]

You can if they think your boss is an idiot

[fervent geode]

I think this happened in Painted Count

[rancid cove]

"My squad leader a FUCKING ASS DUMBFUCK. JUMP HIM NOW"

[vagrant fox]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBvtvBu3PDA

time for slop

[near wasp]

I feel like honor duels exist so the underlings can get out aggressive tendencies without inhibiting warband strength

[vagrant fox]

complete with slop thumbnail

[fervent geode]

Although now that eyes are on you, you gotta do a better job or the Atramentar will kill you

Or the Contekar will take your command

[near wasp]

If your boss is being a fuckwit your just gonna kill him

[fervent geode]

Probably

[rancid cove]

Those are more the gladiator pits

The WE used it a lot but other legions had it as well

[near wasp]

Then settling differences or using it as a tool to control the underlings

[rancid cove]

You could go from first injury to third injury or to the death but those were rare

[fervent geode]

Or to last blood

[near wasp]

You don't want your underlings killing each other when they could be killing the enemy

[fervent geode]

And kill the guy

[near wasp]

Kharn to erebus

[fervent geode]

Angron dgaf

[near wasp]

Sauaginus extremsus

[fervent geode]

But for the Nlords yeah

[rancid cove]

Thats what I just said

[fervent geode]

You didn’t say le funi last blood

[near wasp]

Ok khorne worshipper

[rancid cove]

Angron didnt but the WE did
Iirc its mentioned they would even punish a guy (i think Draco was his name?) by forcing him on multiple duels to third blood until he was exhausted so he'd understand despite the nails theyre still brothers and need each other

[fervent geode]

Yeah true

Khârn I think meted punishment before too

[rancid cove]

Delvarius i think

Delvarus*

[opaque coyote]

Tbf the honor part is more so a legitmizing factor

Ironically to prevent stuff like cheating

If you do something "unfair"

You don't get the position

Because allowing anything goes inevitably leads to the duel uh

Affecting more than two people

Of course the Night Lords didn't get the memo

[rancid cove]

If you get outplayed you deserved it

To be a Night Lord is to know these kind of things

[opaque coyote]

Yeah it's more so to at least limit it to just one other person

Instead of like

"I brought a fucking cannon! I blew up an entire house."

Cause when anything goes, you're gonna go overkill

[opaque coyote]

The NL duels sre

I assume somewhere isolated from peolle

If only to not get complaints about murdering several people due to a random ass grudge duel

...frequently at least

I definitely know the NLs murder people for fun

But like

They probably don't wanna attract attention from their genedad

[rancid cove]

Yeah like hed care

[flat nimbus]

appropriate Confucian prevention of potential retaliation

can’t have someone seek revenge if everyone who cared about them is also dead

[rocky gale]

Yussssss

Tyranid Warrior time

Great news for anyone who's got stacks of Tyranid warriors

[fervent geode]

Nah Shang and Gendor had theirs in front of the whole Kyroptera lol

Although admittedly genedad wasn’t present

[jade holly]

Tyranids were today?

[rocky gale]

Ye

[jade holly]

C’mon Necrons Votann or CSM lemme see you tomorrow

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/enricopucci-happy-happy-enrico-pucci-jojo-made-in-heaven-jojo-gif-26801198

Holy peak

[rocky gale]

CSM and Daemons tomorrow

[jade holly]

[languid meadow]

excited for Daemons

marines are whatever

[jade holly]

Also I’m noticing we’re adding detachments that make models into Battleline

Will I actually see Lokhusts become Battleline?

[languid meadow]

Nids look so fun to play

but I rather blow my brains out than do a full ass horde army

[rocky gale]

Can't wait to deploy 2000pts of just Tyranid Warriors

[arctic talon]

Just like the good old days

lol

nid warriors not being battleline by default was lame

tbh

[fervent geode]

If CSM rules are ass and/or they kill Daemons as a faction

I’m going Kson

[languid meadow]

Nah I don't think they'll kill daemons

[rocky gale]

Well they said Daemons are getting their rules tomorrow

[fervent geode]

I hope not

[rocky gale]

So unlikely they're dead

[fervent geode]

Staying as an index is my guess

But I fear the worst

[vagrant fox]

Gang I'm going to crash out my warframe builds are all out of date so bad

[fervent geode]

My Yareli build is unchanged from like

Idfk even

[vagrant fox]

My baruuk isn't red-critting the whole game anymore I'm putting a gun in my mouth

[vagrant fox]

Where did they say this

I want to see the sole daemon player suffer

[fervent geode]

U gonna play revenant now?

[vagrant fox]

I was made fun off too much for playing revenant and just afking so no

[rocky gale]

Learn to read first and you'll see

[vagrant fox]

I can't read

[rocky gale]

That's why you need to learn

Headass

[vagrant fox]

i'm crine

[rocky gale]

Check WarCom you bingus

[vagrant fox]

this is nothing

daemons thrown under the bus

[rocky gale]

Got a regular Maura Labingi over here

[vagrant fox]

I wish I had a weird gay uncle who left me a huge fortune

[rocky gale]

You just got to do the thing with his ring first

[raven stone]

Bye Bye Demons Codex apparently

Going by the preview today

[rocky gale]

It's says see it tomorrow

So of course you doomers begin calling joever time

[raven stone]

Issue is GW rarely does previews together

Otherwise they would have shown GSC with Nids

[rocky gale]

It's a Friday

[jade holly]

Me waiting for each Necron dynasty to have their Codex supplement

[rocky gale]

Ultimately I don't care if Daemons get squashed, pessimism just pisses me off

[vagrant fox]

It's probably not getting squashed

If they brought back the squats they can dust off the daemon bits

[raven stone]

All we can do is wait and see 😅

Even I will admit my guess could be wrong

[solid horizon]

https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Vhostok_Pistonhand are these guys the same with a different name or is it different persons with the same title ?
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Azgorek_Varren

are they struck by the same autism

[raven stone]

Struck by 40k on the nose naming syndrome

[solid horizon]

I mean they both took over a forgeworld to chain build daemon engines and nothing else

and have the title/name pistonhand

mysterious

[jade holly]

[rocky gale]

There are two pistonhands inside you

[solid horizon]

one is an iron warrior and one is a world eater ? to be honest fair

since I play my army both as chaos undivided and world eaters depending on the mood

but still

odd

[rocky gale]

Whatever you do, don't clench

[sacred ginkgo]

That was funnier than it should have been

[rocky gale]

Title of my autobiography

[fervent geode]

It’s been gone for a while

They got indexed in 10e

[vagrant fox]

They'll come back, trust

[jade holly]

What detachments we expecting for CSM?

Considering how specific and focused they are I’d bet we get one for Warpsmiths, Chosen, and Masters of Possession or something

[fervent geode]

Wdym

They aren’t gonna lock units to detachs

I’m expecting a redo of Dread Talons

And Nightmare Hunt to stay

[jade holly]

No I meant detachments seem to prioritize specific models or units

[fervent geode]

Since battleshock isn’t ass

[jade holly]

Like the Emperor’s Champion detachment

The Norn Emissary detachment

[fervent geode]

No I don’t see that for CSM tbh

PBZ and VotLW let you take anything

[solid horizon]

yeah CSM might be the only case

[fervent geode]

Nightmare Hunt too

[fervent geode]

Maybe lol

[solid horizon]

except maybe damned models

[fervent geode]

Chaos Knights too I think but I haven’t done them in a while

[fervent geode]

True

[solid horizon]

there is a CSM detachment where you can play only damned

[jade holly]

I want a detachment that allows Havoc’s wargear options to have the Heavy keyword

[fervent geode]

Chaos Cult innit

Or whatever it was

[solid horizon]

yup

[fervent geode]

Ah

[solid horizon]

soulforged warpack more or less can do that too

[fervent geode]

I’ve never seen anyone use either of those lol

Maybe just an area thing

[solid horizon]

of course if you want to benefit from enhancements you have to take a warpsmith or a discordant (warpsmith is better)

well soulforged warpack is the one for daemon engine (subsequently the one I main lol)

makes your daemon engines melee freaks

I always lose because I have no fodder infantry

[fervent geode]

I see VotLW and PBZ a lot, I think like CoB and Nightmare Hunt occasionally, now that you mention it I think might’ve known a guy who runs Soulforged or Cabal

[solid horizon]

I've seen iron fortitude a lot

[fervent geode]

Buy yo cultists

[young pecan]

Is tabletop more or less expensive than golf

[solid horizon]

well I have planned to use skittles as traitor guardsmen (I know they suck but the wargear is somewhat similar)

[fervent geode]

Maybe my experience but I think golf was more expensive

[fervent geode]

Fair fair

[solid horizon]

it is as expensive as cocaine addiction

[fervent geode]

True

[solid horizon]

now there are many alternatives

buy resell, second hand, recast or print

[fervent geode]

Printing is a big one

[celest dome]

Had we ever seen the Knight lifter platforms before

[storm jungle]

aNope

this is a first

lexi time

[celest dome]

That's noice

[spare osprey]

Big bawx.

[solid horizon]

finally, an explanation of how the fuck a knight lands on a planet

[fervent geode]

You know I’ve never given thought to how my Knighst actually get there before this

[celest dome]

I think it was always explained to be specialized lifter no ?

[solid horizon]

I've been told they're thrown on a planet like that and somewhat miraculously land unharmed

[young pecan]

Genuinely surprising to me atp

[fervent geode]

I once heard some kind of transport ship brings them down from the main ship

[fervent geode]

I might be wrong lol

[solid horizon]

I assume chaos knights go there by the sheer power of portals lol

[fervent geode]

I don’t even know how much I spent on TT

[storm jungle]

where do you hear this from lmao

we always knew how knights/titans landed on planets

[fervent geode]

I think this was like the Vraks experience

[young pecan]

At least it doesn't waste dozens of acres of perfectly good land per match ❤️‍🩹

[solid horizon]

idk I've heard it that's all

[storm jungle]

Nah the chaos titans there came out of a crashed chaos ship

[fervent geode]

Real

[fervent geode]

Funny

[storm jungle]

which was already gonna land to unload the chaos titans anyway

so uhhh

good job imperials?

[fervent geode]

Mission accomplished unsuccessfully

[solid horizon]

knight abominant, open the portal

[jade holly]

We are getting Loyal and chaos knight detachments right?

[solid horizon]

yes

every faction is getting new detachs

[jade holly]

I wonder, if I have a chaos knight as an ally in a CSM army can I give it a detachment?

[solid horizon]

no

[jade holly]

[solid horizon]

there is a detachment however IIRC that allows you to have cultists or sumthin

[languid meadow]

https://youtu.be/-wwNzO4XpJY?si=iD7Y_Su1RvVh9D3m @arctic talon some crack for you

[solid horizon]

this

[arctic talon]

The onegar's guns are the wrong color

Jokes aside looks interesting

[solid horizon]

oh right lmao the eradication ray fires yellow beams

[rocky gale]

Dilara on her way to write up another Glup Shitto wiki article

[arctic talon]

it looks so fucking cursed lol

why isn't it white

same with the galvanic rifle rounds but those vary in color at least

[solid horizon]

could have been teal as well

also phosphor shots look very different from what I expected lmao

[languid meadow]

I love being able to see the iron harvest skeletons in the walkers

[arctic talon]

it looks fun but the idle animations have them shaking like a meth addict

lol

[arctic talon]

Tbh they're said to be blinding white

[solid horizon]

I thought it fired some sort of bright glowing white foam

[arctic talon]

They're way more blue then I expected lol

[fervent geode]

Phosphor is supposed be like a flare so yeah

[arctic talon]

it fires white globs of shit

[fervent geode]

Idk why it’s lasery

[arctic talon]

I'm being nitpicky

its w/e

[storm jungle]

I prefer writing actual lore instead of Astarshitto slop so

[solid horizon]

also yeah the skittles look like crackheads lmao

also fast kataphrons

myth

[languid meadow]

ahh fuck they play like

um

fuck I forgot the faction

but the noosphere reminds me of another faction in a diff game

[solid horizon]

tbh radioactive carbine firing like crazy is accurate

[fervent geode]

Anything but Astarshitto

Unless it’s WS

[jade holly]

Me watching DoW gameplay knowing I can’t play it

[solid horizon]

monolith ?

[fervent geode]

Then is Astarpeak

[arctic talon]

bro everyone but the electro priests and HQ are tweaking lmao

[languid meadow]

no

[celest dome]

Radium being blue is ok or not ?

[languid meadow]

like gameplay

[arctic talon]

Its blue

unless GW painters wana be cute

lol

[storm jungle]

after touching up the entire Savlar page i needed a break tbh 😭

[solid horizon]

[fervent geode]

Real

Average chud

[languid meadow]

the noosphere mechanic reminds me of another RTS faction

I think zerg

[solid horizon]

marshal think he tuff

[rocky gale]

Mags is on her Romaboo arc

[fervent geode]

At least I can point people somewhere if they ask for Savlar spess mehreen now

[storm jungle]

I cannot believe a civilization who based its entire culture in stealing/copying others and conquest got slaughtered

[rose thorn]

LMAOOOOO

[storm jungle]

Live by the sword die by the sword you italian fucks

[fervent geode]

They got it coming

Italians

Think we saw the bodyguard of the Marshal with Plasma Calliver ?

[solid horizon]

my marshal is the horus heresy one so I didnt notice

[celest dome]

Might mean that they can do more varied weapons as different upgrades

[languid meadow]

this is a faction preview so I doubt they'll show it all

DoW 1 did that

Iron harvest did that (the devs making this game)

every RTS basically does that

also where ad mech planes and pteraxii

[storm jungle]

Its not the internet if you dont judge everything from just 1 trailer

[hollow lantern]

I wish iron harvest was better

Great aesthetic, lackluster mechanics

[celest dome]

Pteraxii will be in Mechanicus 2

[celest dome]

Scythe is such an interesting setting, would love to see it get some more video games (Battlefield Scythe/Iron Harvest would be a dream)
