my bet? he's going to die to I forgot what the padawans name is
where's kyle katarn in all this
lol
where's my goat
Kyle Katarn is canon whenever the fuck Lucasart feels like it
and whenever I feel like he is

To this day one of the greatest writing fumbles of all time, making the bad guys just plain correct and genuinely victims
Has anyone here seen the bug in Battlefront 2 of Grievous flying across the map to kill a sniper?
trying to remember that one lucasarts game where you played as a bounty hunter with a really funky looking ship
i remember his ship being put in the special edition of ep1
He opens with his Clone Wars form, before realising he's no longer that man and switches to the form he uses in New Hope, then pauses realising that unlike him Maul is unable to move on from the past, so he switches to Qui-Gon's form from Phantom Menace hoping Maul will attempt the same move he did with Qui-Gon and when he does, he counters it.
the helghast are not that correct tbh
Would they just A.I for his voice like they did in Fortnite.
man i am bored let's drop this on the most crowded planet in the star wars universe
Prob get the guy who voiced him in Battlefront 2
The ISA got what they deserved 
helghan gets nuked
and yea, the moment after where he holds him is peak
never even played killzone lmao who cares who even owns a playstation
I can’t stop fucking laughing at this

Killzone was peak tbh
does anybody ever actually argue this because thats crazy
Yes
I DIDNT HAVE A PS3
Yesh because they made the ISA genuinely evil
i didnt even have a fuckin xbox 360
Qui-Gon, Satine, Maul. Three Times Obi Wan held them in his arms as they died, each time he gives them peace.
i was POOR
I've unironically seen massive waves of "helghast are totally justified" people and it's a dog whistle
^
i had one xbox with 6 games my whole life
I went back and skimmed that shitty ass video posted earlier and it just
and tony hawk american wasteland was the goat of all tony hawk games
hurts me mind
I assume Dilara forgot to watch that vid the whole way through
Meanwhile he gives Anakin a hot bath
also halo 1 and 2 so that was cool
I dont care what other people say it for, I care what I say it for. The ISA are just plain evil
shoutouts to halo 2 breaking benjamin rocks
Not gonna lie I have a friend that was obsessed with it and he did try to sell me them but they do have that fascist military look shit on though
this does look pretty cool
bro fell into the Helghast poom-poom
if you support helghast mass murdering civilizations for previously being oppressed you must love isreal
You know who I want to be canon in Star Wars?
i remember watching someone play shadowfall on release and being like
I like the old republic eras stupid chud ships a ton tbh, the fact they're carriers mostly adds to it lol
"what is any of this shit about lmao"
My favorite Jedi is Plo Koon tbh
She spread her legs and birds fell dead out of the sky
honestly I think some of the worst star wars ships were the old legends mando ships
In canon yeah same
Plo Koon is so cool
bro named plo koon
Cool aesthetic, cool dude, good morals
Had his own force lightning that the other Jedi got scared by and he just said “deal with it”
Actually I ran the numbers and we're burning you alive in tires
buh
i like plo koon i remember having my grandma record the premeir of the escape pods ep on vhs so i could watch it at home
I like old Mando aesthetics ngl
Prove it
its a good aesthetic tbh
also their old fighters were odd
These stupid fucking things
like what is going on here
Did Jango still fucking despise Jedi outside of Legends too?
considering how they probably just went "fucking good enough to kill people"
I like how weird their tech looks tbh
"optimal design for killing, fuck the rest"
is this fuckin Subnautica?
Is it bad I feel 0 sympathy for the Mandos getting bombed back to the stone age
twice
Look
alterra looking ass
I love the mandos, I love their stupid armor, I love their dumbass culture
They get everything they deserve lol
You reap what you sow
They don’t even have a reason, they do it for the love of the game
Her beautiful sickly visage, invoking a Victorian lady thats on her deathbed with consumption
I think the genocide during like
imagine drunk driving one of these things bro
the new Kom'raks are so cool
for Mandalorians getting fucking slaughtered en mass
because they didn't do genocide this time
and got bombed into the fucking stone age
I still think my favorite Mandalorian fact is how they fight Jedi
😳
Yeah I love the design of the mandalorian ships in Clone wars and onwards lol
Do you think the Jopall would get away with making their own weapons?
hey dad whys your ship named slave 1
Like, combining a lasgun with a shotgun.
and why does it have the bass boost bombs
Wasn’t there some story where Jango was once a slave and stole the ship to escape, ergo the slave won?
It's a former police crusier.
Yes
also did the galaxy just fucking forget about cortosis weave weapons lol
He liberated the ship from its oppressors much like he once was iirc
gYATT.
Sonic weapons are cool
That's true of a lot of things lol
they fucking killed the name slave 1 in a lot of marketing
In both Lucasart stuff and in Disney stuff
Never doubt me again, kiddo
just called the "firespray" or boba fetts ship
Was it not the Slave 1 because it was a test ship, where all of it's systems were slaved meaning it could be piloted by a single person rather than needing a crew.
Firespray is the class of the ship
yeah I know it's just called that in a lot of marketing now
they don't want to use the name slave-1
I think BOBF he calls it the firespray as well
It was the firespray all the way back in the 2000s when bounty hunter came out, Jango just named it the Slave 1
Parents don't like buying that for their kids
im doubting you right now to your face
Fave Starwars ship is the Slave I because it just looks funny to me
In lore didn’t Jango call it that because he himself was a slave when he obtained it?
why the cops got fucking BASE BOOST BOMBS
"Mom can i get the slave 1"
I kind of like the design of the wookie gunship.
Like this thing also on a landing position is just like facing the sky
Police, Prison Guards, something like that is normal
She looks sickly beacuse she's a halfbreed
never talk again
no
Her little lip cut
Have you seen the average crime syndicate in star wars? fucking quadruple the police budget in that universe
Ever since Episode 2 Jango Fett was the coolest dude in Star Wars to me
Him and Grievous are my favorite characters
the slave 1 looks like ass don't @ me
stop posting this white woman god
Jango is just a full blown space cowboy
she looks like she's gonna ask me for the manager
it's one of the worst looking og ship
You should see it in Jango’s colors
It looks so much better
What if it had quadruple blade ultraglide technology and was called shave 1
i did and it still blows
Also, this was peak:
That's the vektan in her
banger
wish i had that
tbh
Someones replacing you @celest cedar
do we know what the fuck happens to mandalorian force sensitives
Wait, she's Hera's daughter?
I mean culturually
yeah
That was Maul’s ship right?
Yep.
Another certified sienar evil ship
Isn't it surpressed and ignored or do I misremember
Yeah she udnerwent milfification
I think my favorite lore decision in star wars was to have both midichlorians and crystal jedi
I think it was ignored yeah
Just, sure
but there's like
1 fucking mandalorian jedi
and the Mandalorians were aligned with the sith empire
and thats a good source of violent psychopaths
The Soulless One is sick too
for the sith empire
considering how they were churning out cannon fodder tier sith for the war
I think this is twice now Larmouth has been woman-pilled by me
Could you blood dope for midichlorians to be the lance armstrong of jedi
same applies to the Jedi though lol
so many cannon fodder tier jedi
and sith during that time period
post valeria harkin also
But when it comes to ships commanded by Grievous, nothing beats the Malevolence
Would it be wrong to do a guard army based on Girls und panzer?
yea
No but yes
Do mechanicus types get cyberpsychosis?
Its a fun school sport for them
no
No
No, that would be awesome
Cyber psychosis is just normal psychosis in universe for cyberpunk
not even remotely a factor
It makes you immune to radiation somehow instead
they are religious to BECOME machines they love it
That implies they aren’t fucking psychotic to begin with tbh
Damn wrong ping
plus also conceptually cyberpsychosis does not even fit within the world of 40k
Maybe...
Also this
lol
i remember not understanding why that thing was the CIS bomber in og bf2 when i played it
Yeah like cyber psychosis won't even be an issue if you get a mechanicus from warhammer and just implant all of the cyberpunk cybernetics into him he ain't even gonna fold
Cyberpsychosis is more of a critique on the human condition and trans humanism lol
if anything it's gonna be light work for him
It’s Grievous’s personal ship lol
By pondsmith
it was just because the hyena bomber wasn't a thing when they made the game so they just picked some bs
cyberpsychosis is a balancing point for his tabletop foremostly
Most people in the cult mechanicus are wackos from growing up in a literal cult before they get plasteeled up
look at smasher, his psychology and way of thinking of himself literally just does not have any cyber psychosis happened to him
dont want your players just chromed up to the nines and just be invincible
But if we’re talking iconic CIS Star fighters we need to talk about this legend
vulture Droid my beloved
Similar to but inferior to the best SW ship ever, the VT-49 Decimator
Yeah at least in RED its basically just to justify a balance mechanisn
girls panzer seems like an anime for people who like to say they're big fans of ww2 history
Same with 2020 and 2013 lol
take that as you will
well like
it was made to be a companion to the game
and not a like full fledged tabletop
how it is you know
that's just a scrunglier fury class
If you think RED is too crunchy it’s even crunchier
lol
MY FRISBEE
All mechanicus people are more or less cyberpsycho's, just not violent
Also netrunning is an atrocity in 2020
They really stripped back the rules and it suffers for it, plus classic cyberpunk problems
i really like old school cyberpunk for its tamped back technology
like cyberdecks being a literal actual thing you gotta whip out and use
Nah its too awkward for how uncrunchy it is
Everything pondsmith has made ever has had issues
shoutouts to pondsmith getting 1shot by ai
Except for listen up you primitive screw heads
old people should never have internet
for appearance
Hacker characters are inherently problematic for design
Real
That’s still a thing in RED, I dislike how the mostly do away with that in 2077
Lol
The kind that have to stay put instead of being wireless wizards at least
ive been trying to figure who ate the lunch first, cyberpunk or shadowrun cause they're both a like late 80s invention
There’s a few net runners with like
and their tech lingo and stuff is SO samey
Physical cyberdecks
but one is cooler by several margins
I had the Lego set for that at one point
(its shadowrun ive had so much fun playing that tabletop its so cool)
Pondsmith wins by 1 year
lol
1988
Its a design antipattern for a character to basically exist on two maps
BTW, can we all agree that this is the worst tie variant?
They both drank from lol
What are you, German?
I mean its all the same books lol
It makes sense for a shitty mining company
lol
True.
Helldiver ahh Tie fighter
I did a run with some friends where i played as a adept troll named bigass and i love him so much
I do actually like, but is probably ass against other tie fighters.
Both ttrpgs read neuromancer
if it wasnt for our decker we woulda died a million times i was mostly a weight on the team
but still bigass team mascot
not to say i never enjoyed the tabletop of cyberpunk
Deadass Star Wars squadrons made me appreciate the TIE fighter more
That shit is actually terrifying lol
i just like shadowrun more cause i think having magic bullshit is a lot of fun
No shields sucks, but you’re so fucking fast lol
what a fun game
So, what would happen if Ghazghkull won at Armageddon coming up?
And it’s just got a much better view port
this is why i loved world of darkness
Then the chud X-wing
I miss star wars squadrons
As much as I love the X-wing
bigger and better things, ULTRAMAR
That shit is so cluttered in first person
I think out of every game I've played in my life I may have been the best at that game
Like realistically, what would he gain from conquering Armageddon fully?
Game managed to make the new republic scary as fuck lol
you gotta understand
orks dont fight to conquer worlds
they fight to have more places to fight
I mean specifically for Ghazghkull himself. What would a victory at Armageddon entail for him
if ghazgull wins, he will use it as a way to take his WAAGH somewhere else
what arent you getting, he would be the baddest ork who ever lived and every ork ever would follow him
I was a massive sweat in that game in my tie fighter, I'd always disable ships with that one type of torpedo and just blow through them
Lmao
I think my first lego star wars set was this:
I mean what would happen to him power wise, would that mean for his evolution
he would get bigger i suppose
He does though, the Great Waaagh lmao
Fuck I wish people still played squadrons lmao
I hope the Empire got him
The campaign is super fun though
He’s literally the prophet of Gork and Mork, he’s trying to kick up a waaagh to end all waaagh
You get to just fucking rend apart any other small ship lol
well use your head, what would that mean past armageddon
The X wing was fun but just so slow
My first set
If there's anything special about armageddon its war of the beast stuff none of us want to think about
I love my little squadron
Alright I’m gonna ask from this angle:
If Ghazghkull wins at Armageddon and the Great Waaagh officially begins, could it reach War in Heaven levels of destruction
The best feeling in squadrons was drifting and straight up flipping around on someone and smoking them
Armageddon becoming a ork attack planet.
game had actual good asymmetry as well tbh
Like, thrusters the size of hive cities.
I only ask cause if Ghaz gets any closer to becoming a new Beast or Krork level threat, wouldn’t the Necron’s mobilize and then seeing the Necrons mobilize the Eldar would then too?
The New Repbulic ships being tankier but slower(except for the A-Wing) fit well
Me and like 40 friends had a clan in that game when it came out and divided teams by who the best players were it was so fucking sweaty
the empires ships being meth addicted freaks with really easy to change power settings
is also great lol
I think trazyn already has eyes on armageddon and might get involved
Like being able to just dump all your power into your blasters instantly
and then unload is hilarious
FUCK I miss it
trazyn if you cock block us on ghazzy destroying terra ill fucking kill you
I know Imotekh fucking hates Orks, so if he noticed Ghaz getting stronger he’d probably also start getting involved
Necromunda has this btw
But to the point of forming a truce with Szarekh? Ehhhhh hard to see that happening
trazyn professional cool things cock blocker
This shit was infact aura tbh
If ghaz gets much bigger he'll probably fight gulliman directly or something and it will suck
tbh its kind of crazy how much better the Empire cockpits were on average ngl
you get so much vision lol
Also, is this a good vader voice? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBxeThD_scE
as someone who had been playing air combat stuff for years it was lotta fun
toobad the game ran like doo doo
for your piece of crap that will instantly die if breathed on too hard
and no one played it
but i still enjoyed it while it lasted
also its microtransaction hellscape :/
Havina Vonreg my beloved
to be fair For strategic commander and is very fond of one on ones
Orks are
like it had so much going against it
basically a foil to two of those
actually I take it back, the B-wing had a great cockpit
plus the eye of sauron gamergate beam trying to blast it
They are random as shit
My first OC when i was like 12 was a TIE pilot
it was a niche of a niche tbh

and the concept of honour is not a thing for them
it was!
People still do play it
i still think about booting it up and doing bot skirmishes to dust it off
There's a discord community dedicated to it
squadrons is only 30gb
I have found a new weapon that the guard needs:
the big problem with squadrons is it seems to struggle with starting on windows 11 computers
but I think it's just a compability mode fix
also runs perfectly on steam deck
I like the TIE interceptor and A-wing so much lol
my stupid chud interceptors that instantly die
I miss you
its funny how i always gravitated back to the x wing
old reliable
was kinda cool in campaign seeing a clone wars crusier in that nebula
thats all i remember
It was like the perfect middle ground lol
Decently tanky, pretty killy, pretty fast
wedge didnt kill 1 bobillion tie fighters cause the x wing was a slouch
I'm surprised GW haven't tried to make a game like this yet.
cause air to air combat in 40k is stupid and bad
and also it already exists and is about orks iirc
nah i was thinking of dakka squadron
twas fun
i liked speed freeks but also like
there is no twisted metal market
it no longer exists
Wait theres another obscure ork vehicle game that assumedly died instantly
Speed Freakz
It’s coming to console
Oh nvm
I just read above
I SAID NVM
you fuckin dorkasses
🗣️ 🔥
I have two Tie pilot OC's, one is Lyra Morn an Eriadu noblewoman who's also a drug addict and Jarik Thorne from Corulag who was based off of JFK's elder brother (but evil) who was a prototype test pilot in WW2
That would be an incredibly massive and ambitious game
16 in game
But I’d be so down for it
40 people at the 24 hour peak
Yes, high risk high reward
i think there's an issue of 40k games that arent about the imperium dying very quickly or falling by the wayside
general gamers dont know or care about not the imperium which sucks
There was also Aeronautica Imperialis: Flight Command.
cause the greater factions are way cooler

On the topic of story stuff, could we ever get a campaign in the future involving a rather large breakout at Solemance via a faction breaking in and Trazyn having to get it under control?
Jarik was only using the military as a stepping stone to politics, so his military records are incredibly tailored and he takes great effort to shift blame on others to avoid it going against him when he enters politics.
Wat

He framed his second in command for treason because he'd started a rumour that Jarik was sleeping with a subordinate.
He was sleeping with his subordinate, he just didn't appreciate it being spread.
Not the superior Kennedy brother...
I mean we'll never know, Joseph died during one of the tests during the war
Their father had originally intended for him to become President, JFK had to take over when Joseph died
I think I mentioned but my PC in the Star Wars FFG campaign I was in was also a drug addict woman 
Why am I a perv for that
She was utterly sexless
There is an air to air tabletop already
It’s called aeronautica imperialis and it’s great
lol
Heh, Lyra got high while flying the groups shuttle and ended up shooting the console while practising spinning her guns around, caused the ship to crash.
Heldrake dog fights?
@vagrant fox smh kinda toxic to deny her boundaries
Smh
They didn’t exist when the game was in production
Heldrakes get no fucking love
It’s a giant fucking robot daemon dragon
With their in lore turn radius
lol
Making a fucking eldar ship look unmaneuerable lol
Is a bit much
The worst thing the good Doctor did was enslave the entire party with debt contracts. Oh and the Nar Shadaa incident
This is how a single weirdass heldrake dominated the skies in that one book
turn real fast
SHOUTOUTS VAULTUS
GW balancing the Heldrake into oblivion
brother vaultus will never die
We ended up trapped on a jungle planet and it completely derailed our mission
he's the goat of the 2nd company
I was involved in a similar escapade where she got bit on the ass and had to be carried piggyback style back home
I think like half the party died on that world
But Lyra managed to blame the Engineer for causing the crash
But the way I can break down each faction in Aeronautica
Imperial: close range brawler, slow as fuck, good acceleration, fat fucks
Muhrines: same as imperial but faster and more fat, worse guns and less missiles
Chaos: longer ranged brawler, excellent turn radius with daemon stuff, shared imperial and marine stuff is the same
Craftworld eldar; fast as fuck, decently durable, good range, hits absurdly hard, only 1 crew per plane
Tau: long ranged, slow planes, tanky, invis, drone spam out the ass
Necrons: best at everything, ignore crew mechanics, expensive as hell
Orks; fast as hell, cheap as fuck, hit hard as hell, die easy as hell
I love how the Yuuzhan Vong are like if you tossed the Drukhari and the Tyranids in a blender.
people say heldrake is shit
but I found it to be an excellent HQ eater-suicide bomber
yes
What flavour?
Sigslop*
Peak
lets ban slop, chud, peak, larp, ragebait, brainrot and such
Are tech priest not the same as a Skitari? whats the difference
Nah, ordained priesthood vs holy warriors
tech priests are members of the cult and skitarii are soldiers
Ish
difference between a comissar and a guardsman
ad mech wise
Priests can overlap a bit with skitarii but skitarii have a defined role
You leave chud alone
I see, also, admech is just "adeptus mechanicus" right? or is just another branch for the mars army?
yeah its adeptus mechanicus
Aig, also, when it comes to soldiers only skitari do the work? or are there more?
lots of servitors too
Tech priest is just the guy who prays to the metal stuff so they dont do fighting stuff orr do they
tech priests fight
but theyre not really dedicated soldiers
dominus model has a friggin disintegration ray attached
they are more like warrior priests
they'd fight to honour the machine god
skitarii fight cause thats what they were made for
and robots & automata
thallax go brr
(if only they didnt had that ugly headpiece)
I totally do not use mine as paint test dummies
Read this + scroll to the bottom of the page for other admech units in a collapsible bar-thingy
They got tons of units, Skits are just their mainline soldiers
editor advertising
Yea
Dunno what's wrong with these nordic honkies, only like 1/3 had their lights turned on and the rest were watching TV in the dark
Adeptus Mechanicus is the whole of the Mars+other Forge World.
The army that they have are the Skitarii, some Militant orders of Tech Priest (Magos Dominus for example), the Legio Cybernetica (Robots and Tech Priest that drive them), and Questoris Knight (Imperial Knight allied with them)
👆
did you guys see the lego minas tirith set that shit looks insane
lego always cooks
Not to true scale to Lego figures, 0/10/Shitpost.
Where's the mountain
is it a seperate kit that costs your other half of the life savings
tbh its not an unreasonable price
Trying to sleep far earlier but my mind is taking me to…mentally unhealthy places.
Bleargh.
8.2K pieces 650 price
still cheaper than GW plastic crack
I wonder if GW could be convinced to make an imperial palace with Lego
NGL would be amazing if they did
Tbh, I doubt Lego would make it due to their anti war stance.
it would have to be xbox huge
I mean LoTR and Star Wars go their stuff, so…
star peace
characters as big as houses
what the epic scale lego is this
There's a back
light this guy on fire and toss him off the cliff!!!
yeah now they are out to Bought 💰 you
What if gw decided to do a bionicle version of 40k.
joytoy
block channel
ever think about how 90% internet drama originates from twitter
I really wonder how much that app has warped peoples thinking
Genuinely cant exist in the same reality anymore
What is a small, in offensive thing is just so massively blown up
So much fandom drama is caused by like
no seperation between communities
a lot
and its so blatantly a psyop too
well i sayt a lot, a lot for relatively few people
Back when forums were the thing, it was more divided and people just stayed in their lane. Now It's just open air and anyone can comment on whatever they see
like its botted to fuck obviously
It's literally proven to deliberately make you upset.
and most normal people are not reading twitter
It knows what you like and knows what you HATE
Yeah
Twitter is exhausting even when I'm being very cautious using it
What happened to TF2
Bots
A lot of dark but still pretty good
I plan to
I went with Iron Hands, thankfully it was already primed black
I’m personally proud of the silver trimming
And how I cleaned up where I went over the edges
u'll be doing that a lot for your first bunch of minis
Frankly I’m amazed I did that good with how tiny some of the spaces are
so good practice for sure
That mini is considered tabletop ready?
yeah i'd say so
i mean
one thing, paint the rim of the base
base rim is an easy win right there and its super satisfying
go back over it as the very last thing
so its clean
but ya i cant really see very well tbh
Yeah the base is my least favorite part, I was working with very limited paint option
I used Steel Legion Dust, they won’t be needing that paint for a while


Is it advised to fuck around with your own custom race for your first time in stellaris?
Necron might honestly be much easier won’t they?
not much difference really
if the tau can tough it out and not degrade will they not become the most powerful in the setting in a few thousand years?
No
cause GW doesnt make money off them
Better images of the mini
Ironically the lens I thought I messed up on looks better than the other one
humanity ain't gonna advance that much unless emporer comes back, aeldar are beyond saving, idk if necrons will be more powerful if they get their old bodies back but they are also degrading, orcs? i genuinely don't fucking know if they gonna mutate into krorks and grape the galaxy, and tyranids will slowly get stronger, also chaos but like chaos loses if humanity and aeldari get graped
It looks like it has an actual glow to it
very nice
First ever painted mini too
Their competition is too fierce I think
I dont think Tau can ever be stronger than necrons
Necrons are only growing in power too as more awaken
are they currently clashing? because humanity made it to a golden age where they rivaled or even surpassed aeldar and necrons, and ik necrons have insane tech bullshit but even if they don't surpass them, the slow grind of the imperium and other factions will surely chew em down
Also check out the Lego set I got for Christmas I only recently got to build
and tau is continuously developing
No one ever surpassed Necron’s in technological advancement
how close was golden age humanity
So fucking far lmao
really??
One of the weaker weapons of the Necron’s is the Celestial Orrery
guess i'm just dumb
steel legion drab ☝️ 🤓
A map that, if you select a star or planet, destroys said star or planet
ok outside of their fucking galaxy nukes how close did the imperium get
Their weakest infantry wield weapons that disintegrate your nervous system in one shot and ignores armor

yeah but we have volkite
at one point
the point of 40k is the Imperium is completely fucked, among many other things.
The end of the Imperium is literally set in stone as an event that will occur
Necrons are so advanced its pretty much incomprehensible
galaxy nukes are dumb
The Tyranids/Chaos/Orks have all been seen in said "event" as the cause
but one thing is consistent in that the Imperium will fucking explode
i know i know, so will tau basically deadlock with nids, necrons, and some chaos
just die
are prolly going to get A. Eaten By nids. B. Corrupted by Chaos. C. Orks
yeah
Or also the secret Option D. the Necrons conquer them and take them as slaves
their tech is fire but their strategies are trash imo
lol
Farsight will fall to Khorne I demand it
Necron strategy is trash because turns out the average noble has 0 idea on how to wage war properly
lol
like you have the power to fucking obliterate stuff why the fuck do you even use vehicles
i mean orks ain't that big of an issue, chaos?? idk i think they fine, nids, holy shit they're fucked
Only Imotekh is really the big brain Strategist and he keeps losing to Orks
or worse
Like the average necron noble
Orks have taken over galaxies and spread like a plague
you have transdimensional transreality science bullshit, why do you sleep in the material world ????
even with the fucking "ART OF WAR BY IMOTEKH, and SUPPLEMENTRY MATERIALS BY ZANDREKH" shoved into their brain
i mean yeah but you can only have so many guys on a planet
the average necron noble is not a good commander lol
tabletop propaganda made my brain think they were
but just like DoW with flayed ones
Aren’t Zahndrekh and Imotekh like the only standout tacticians
it was a LIE
I love the idea of an ork planet so overpopulated it looks like that Travis Scott concert where 14 people died
Imotekh, Zandrekh, Anrakyr(though he has major faults strategically)
Astro world?
ig the setting just ends with us all being in trazyn's pokeballs
Do you guys think orks succumb to crowd crush
they don't they combine like those mobile games
I like that one Necron short story where the most aggressive grunt, tracked by most shots fired, gets appointed as a sergeant or something
Very effective leadership
Ork mosh pit would go hard
Me after my 79th air ball (I got promoted to team captain)
You miss every shot you take
🗣️
tbh
the average necron is like
literally braindead and trapped in their own body
Immortals are like starting to have some brain cells
they can do this scary thing called giving orders and thinking
So would the aggression just be like "damn he's got passion sign him up he might be a leader"
likely yes
Thats so fucking funny
Then you have Royal Wardens who can mobilize entire armies as long as they follow a Lord/Overlord/Phaeron’s command
Remember the Necrons would literally promote based off of height when they were still made of meat
lol
He's got a tiny bit of life in him
thats how fucking Obyron got his job
No fucking way the Necron’s are Irkin invaders lmao
The Tallest looking ahh
Honestly didnt know necrons grunts were braindead thats so cool
Ive always wanted to paint some
not entierly but for martial roles promoting off of height was common LOL
thats not to say they were incompetent
They needed the more advanced bodies for the nobles, the mudhut dwelling commonfolk including the children got the dregs that can just follow orders
but Obyron got picked not because he was the most skilled kidnapped child that they trained into a proto lychguard
Yeah no the Necrons boast the largest slave army among all the factions unironically lmao
but because he was the tallest in his bunch
LOL
And Zandrekh wanted a big tall scary muscular dude
to be his body guard
I mean tbf dude’s prob nearly Silent King height
Muscular(for a necrontyr)
Sure, to be his bodyguard…
I know what you like Zahndrekh, don’t be ashamed
It's so funny that Necrons were a spacefaring species fighting an apocalyptic galaxy war and the peasants lived in mud huts
99% of the population lived in literal mud huts and had no electricity and were fucking subsistance farmers
💀
Russian Empire??
Why can you even build generic options in killteam
best part of necrons tbh
you have generic trooper/warrior/ect. based on squad
btw
Well not every killteam
but most do
Yeah but they are so useless
surely, army grunts aren't braindead irl
not really
How so
What killteam has good warriors
Would you want your rank and file cannon fodder to have a chance to run?
I know kasrkin are decent but you might as well have 5 special weapons
No, you want them to be cannon fodder smh
Nope Lmfao
I also like that theyre recyclable cannonfodder
Navy breachers are decent actually
Yes and no
necron infantry be like
Honestly it's even funnier when you realize they're brain-dead because the nobles don't care
go my morbillion metal skellies
As long as their engram isn’t destroyed, they can keep coming back
Pretty sure arbites warriors are good too
Some spots like underground they cant reaniamate yeah?
isnt the engram their coffin shaped logo on their chest ?
Imagine Reanimation protocols like connecting to the internet
Like they still exist as a "person" under all that it's just suppressed
no connection to the main system, no Reanimation
If you die unable to reanimate, you’re dead dead
Does the imperium have a way to disable their wifi yet
and Necron’s cannot reproduce
A Warrior that can’t reanimate is now 1 less Necron in existence that can’t be replaced

good point.
Good analogy even
As Ramattra from Overwatch said “Finite, and dying all too quickly”
I love the necrons but the reanimation thing where they just teleport out feels lame to me
I like when my favorite faction is overpowered
Kabalites, Angels of Death, Phobos, Goremongers, mandrakes, Voidscarred
They reanimate in the field
they only teleport out when they "die"
my necron army is obviously made up as a chaos android regiment of dark mech but I like to pretend the reanimation protocol rule is just infernal regeneration
Oh fair enough
Whats the name of the ship that lets necrons reanimate from there?
Really? Phobos? That surprises me
Then again, you couldnt catch me reading phobos rules they are so fucking long
Ship? I only know they use Tomb Worlds or an Overlord has the Resurrection Orb to allow them to reanimate right there
How do people even play phobos
Ironically im pretty sure the ratling warriors are good too
If they have ships that has Reanimation Protocol systems then I’m unaware of what they’re called
Which is the faction I was complaining about specifically
It bothers me when the warriors in the killteam box have a cooler pose than the specialist
Pretty sure you're thinking of monoliths but they don't reanimate they're just moving portals
nah man its the orb of resurection you gotta have the relic first
Upgrading my lord in dow just to forget to use it
Ah gotcha
Canopteks
Basically glorified Roomba
I was thinking like damn how bad you gotta piss somebody off to be turned into a beanbag roomba
They’re servants to the Necrontyr, no soul in them whatsoever
Just machine servants
Canopteks aren’t Necrontyr turned Necron
They’re just mindless drones they built to serve them during the era of the Necrontyr
The only things that have a mind and "mind" are the ones you can tell have a humanoid frame to it (most of the time)
Besides thralls
Thats interesting I didnt expect necrons to just have genuine automation for some reason
Well they had a mind
canopteks are very good AI
though they usually need "nodes" deployed
to be fully optimal
If there's no nodes deployed they're a bit dumb
They need wifi
Can necrons still make constructs?
You know how the Dwemer in Elder Scrolls had their Dwemer constructs?
They're mostly useful in tomb worlds
That’s exactly what the Canopteks are
Yeah arent the scarabs literally janitors
Spyders maintain their vehicles and other Canoptek constructs
Scarabs serve a myriad of purposes
Can be used for surveillance, communication, cleaning, assault
too bad there is no model of DoW builder scarabs
Yeah
You can break one down and turn it into a soup
Necrons can still make canopteks
you can rub two together and make it rain
aside from like some really weird esoteric ones
that uses engrams
There's a weird hunting hound construct
that uses digitized engrams of necron pets
Technomancers are usually in charge of Canoptek construction tmk
pls pls james workshop give us these guys
I could kick that one into a field goal
I wanna capture points and build plasma generatoooors
is that not the old spyder design
no
builder scarab
it's like
slightly bigger than a canoptek scarab
this is the old spyder
Ugly
Yeah this
But its transport mainly
rip
Ghost Arks are just transport vehicles
I like the old spider because it looks like a computer mouse with legs
I thought you meant literal starships lmao
I thought I read it let them reanimate from there
you could easily pass the old scarab swarm model as epic scale spyders
Ghost Arks are the MTT of Necron’s
Prolly misred
Yeah idk sci fi shit too deeply ngl
Scrab cookies sound good rn
The Ghost Ark is designed to get Warriors in close because there one thing all of Necron’s have in common
EVERYBODY MOVES SO FUCKING SLOW
Theyre unable to run?
mega super big sized gauss flayer
I mean if you have an infantry heavy army a Ghost Ark helps out
I think Trazyn ran once
but hes an overlord
Greyknights tomorrow
Do they walk purely due to design or nah
Does grandpa hobbling to the turlet have aura?
Yeah
Warriors have the worst quality Necrodermis bodies
only when he's using the gun he got issued as part of the KMT as a walking stick
They can barely hold their own weapons lmao

Fair
Tbf thats also beacuse gauss flayers/reapers have total shit ergenomics
and are also like
1 trillion pounds
theyre still able to aim well yeah?
heavy for a space marine
yes
Though they struggle to turn and aim in time sometimes
because of how fucking heavy gauss flayers/reapers are
I've changed my mind, I see now
The Warriors alone are heavy motherfuckers, now imagine being jumped on by this thing
Skorpekhs are fucking huge in lore
so the old plastic models are lore accurate
Yeah the fucking back sag is canon lol
I swear this thing was a pain to assemble
not only because it's like 4 parts
but because it's so heavy it makes gluing torso or arms so painful
Like look at how fucking huge the Skorpekh Lord is
“For the new greyknights detachment we will announce their destruction”
new grey knight detachment will remove their deep strike ability and psychic attacks
GHROND
All 6 members of the crew are accounted for
What’s going on?
Is this about the Mandalorian and Grogu movie flopping?
they're killing him
At the box office?
the disney psychic assasins are coming for him
yes
warframe cheating me out of 104 servoris makes me think star wars should be deleted
Again
why is it so hard to hire a good writer
holy shit man these people
@arctic talon Is there a approximate weight to how much gauss flayers weigh or a comparison to get an idea
Ah.
Filioni is great at writing stuff people tell him to write, never let him fucking direct again lol
too heavy for a marine to pick up period?
they can pick it up
