Honestly

Once had an idea for 40k Analog Horror but then I realized I have zero confidence in my skills and zero editing skills

urban spire
#

you can just write

opaque coyote
#

Trye

urban spire
#

you don't need permission

arctic talon
#

^

urban spire
#

i write so much that i never publish

hallow saddle
#

i like the bit where hes frozen in place and trying to stab the baddie but u can tell hes still going for it 100% the whole time so that when hes unfrozen theres not even slight hesitation

opaque coyote
hallow saddle
#

then rips the spine out

arctic talon
#

Analog horror is fun

#

Shame most of it is slop

#

lol

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

if i was one of the psykers i would have simply brain burst the marines from inside the bubble

opaque coyote
#

Majority is eh to bad

#

But when it's good

#

It's fucking good

arctic talon
#

I want my massive chud monster

#

When do we get a monster hunter monster in real life

# opaque coyote Honestly Once had an idea for 40k Analog Horror but then I realized I have zer...

I also had another idea. A TechnoArcheologist crew delve into a tomb world for lost technology and accidentally awake the tomb. Then one moment one of the humans bodyguards get kidnapped into the shadows and you just hear him screaming out in agony over the vox and they find him disembowled and flayed as Flayed Ones stand over him putting his flesh on… yeah I had this idea for a while lmao

opaque coyote
#

Since like

Tyranids are terrifying

jade holly
#

But just that reveal

urban spire
#

i've been shot at by worse things while inside a bubble than a couple marines, i would not be suppressed

jade holly
#

The shock of these robotic beings draping themselves in flesh and organs as they slowly turn to face the rest of the group in the dark catacombs

celest dome
jade holly
#

That would be so peak for horror

celest dome
#

such bullshit plot armour

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

i haven't seen the secret level one

opaque coyote
#

Flayed ones

urban spire
#

cause it's marines

opaque coyote
#

Yeah that'll fucking work

jade holly
#

So you have a 3 way story going on with both sides trying to escape the Flayed Ones

solid horizon
opaque coyote
solid horizon
#

yeah bro flayed ones are scary trust
flayed ones :

#

slow ass mfer

celest dome
languid meadow
#

Angels are horrifying

opaque coyote
#

Specifically how they just constantly have the need to wear skin because of their severe dysmorphia

solid horizon
#

idk metal skellies covered in bloody ham sounds funny to me

opaque coyote
#

Imagine waking up constantly feeling like you need to breathe

#

Only to realize that you have no lungs

#

Or flesh

urban spire
#

imagine constantly waking up in the wrong body

opaque coyote
#

But that need is still there

#

Your body is demanding it

urban spire
#

feeling like you should be something else

languid meadow
#

I don't know if tomb world does it but if you haven't read TDK !!!

opaque coyote
#

But you don't have a body. Not a real one anyways

urban spire
#

couldn't be me

jade holly
#

Flayed Ones are peak body horror

solid horizon
#

trangneder

languid meadow
#

It's the best novel about how it actually feels to be a necron

opaque coyote
#

"Yeah I feel the same way buddy."

solid horizon
#

being an ardent flayed one spammer on DoW, flayed ones dont scare me at allKEKW_ogryn

urban spire
#

he's havin a good time

languid meadow
#

Necrons in general are peak body horror because the warriors are trapped in their own bodies, nobles have to grasp with trying to breathe and eat

#

Scaery

jade holly
#

A TechnoArcheologist could easily accidentally unleash a flayed one out break in a Tomb World right?

opaque coyote
#

Since like a lot of 40k is the grand scale of things

#

So something like the idea I said earlier

#

Again, a group of PDF soldiers raiding a chaos cult

#

Sounds fun

languid meadow
#

I'd like to see a flayer cult in a hive city

#

And stuff

jade holly
#

Imagine the summoning of a Great Unclean One as the climax of a movie and the Darktide main theme plays

urban spire
#

flayer cult?

languid meadow
#

Lower levels slowly losing population over centuries

opaque coyote
jade holly
opaque coyote
#

Would suffer through

jade holly
#

I think?

opaque coyote
languid meadow
#

Yeah they're not a cult like destroyers but it's easier to call em that

opaque coyote
#

"Yeah he's a bit weird but he does his work well enough"

steel ingot
#

those necrontyr checks dont cash well huh buddy

solid horizon
#

steve the human lore

opaque coyote
#

"The smell? Eh. Not worse than the other employee."

jade holly
solid horizon
#

literally steve the human

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

"I AM DISGUISED" "yes sir" YOU CAN'T TELL IM NOT HUMAN" "yes sir, whatever you want sir"

opaque coyote
#

Flayed one covers their nose before realizing they don't have one

jade holly
#

A Zahndrekh Psychological horror movie could go hard

#

an entire movie from his perspective

#

showing moments of his madness and lucidity

solid horizon
#

steve the human

opaque coyote
#

He offered to take care of my mom

#

He took care of her so well, I never saw her again!

solid horizon
#

steve is so generous

opaque coyote
#

Also this is unrelated to anything

#

But

#

I wanna force my dad to play Minecraft

#

For shits and giggles

magic niche
#

I told Steve my credit card info so he can remind me if I forget

opaque coyote
#

Like how much should I tell him

solid horizon
#

man recent flayed ones feel so naked

jade holly
#

How unreliable of a narrator would Zahndrekh be as a main protag?

opaque coyote
jade holly
#

Like I know we like to joke about his senility but it’s kind of horrifying especially if he’s using it as a coping mechanism

opaque coyote
#

Idk about you but personally it'd be freaky as fuck if they had like

solid horizon
#

we used to be proppa dressed lads

opaque coyote
#

A stretched human face overlayed

opaque coyote
#

This is much better

#

Much more horrifying

magic niche
solid horizon
#

my favorite ones are drippy af

opaque coyote
solid horizon
#

also the only ones I have

opaque coyote
#

Like

#

"Chop down trees using your fists"

magic niche
#

Yeah

#

but then otherwise, he should go in blind

#

so he can experience stuff like the first night

opaque coyote
#

Yeah it would be mad funny

solid horizon
#

these guys looked better than what we have now tbh

opaque coyote
#

Because my Dad's gaming experience is uh

#

It can be summarized as

#

Playing Tetris back in the 1980's

#

...

#

And that's it

magic niche
opaque coyote
#

My Mom unironically

#

Plays more games than my dad

flayed one conga line

And she has the classic "Boomer/Gen X mom" games

My mom plays fucking toy Blast

#

Yup

#

Match 3

my flayed ones were painted with my own blood

Also played a CoC clone for a while

#

Sold her account

due to a slip

Call of Cthulhu?

opaque coyote
# solid horizon

Honestly again, surprised that they haven't done some analog horror type shit.

Like imagine a flayed one with like a stretched out human face

solid horizon
#

I was trying to trim something and sticked the bit of my knife in my index finger

opaque coyote
#

Eyes haphazardly placed into the "holes"

#

Hanging out and unworking

solid horizon
#

my dark skitarii have that

#

they are not standard and made from hostages, criminals and cripple

#

and they are like

#

illegally constructed

#

so they are not very resistant to polluted and radioactive environements

#

so of course their skin and flesh peels to the point of them being barely anything else than a skelly in a metal frame

#

and some of them staple skin of their victims back on their face

urban spire
#

why not just grow them in the vats

solid horizon
#

crudely

solid horizon
arctic talon
solid horizon
#

the magos made them in his basement basically lol

#

some of them were hidden in walls

celest dome
#

I had my Explorator fleet Admech be set around Voss Prime and the Skitarii being like the Vostroyan, where first borns would be sent to the Skitarii, even if your parents were Tech Priests

opaque coyote
#

Kinda envision something like this for the flayed ones (excuse my shitty 5 minute drawing)

solid horizon
#

I would've taken a picture but alas for now none of them have skin stapled back on

#

because it was too hot lately and milliput doesnt like ambiant heat

opaque coyote
#

Haphazardly glued onto their skulls

#

Like one of those Halloween human face masks

celest dome
#

Flayed Ones that harversted the skins of SM, so they look like kids wearing their parents shirts

opaque coyote
#

The mouth stretched because they have to fit it on their lengthened skulls

solid horizon
#

some flayed ones place skulls on their head as a mask

#

the finecast and new models do that

opaque coyote
#

Human teeth

hollow lantern
#

You could go rip off that one joker variant

solid horizon
#

I was thinking of that lol

opaque coyote
#

Yeah

#

That's also good

#

Also yeah that's actually part of the main run

hollow lantern
#

Yeah

opaque coyote
#

Honestly

#

One of the better choices

jade holly
opaque coyote
#

I don't usually like the joker being too overly murdery. But that does fit perfectly into what he'd do for shits and giggles

jade holly
#

Y’know I feel like with Joker some writers lose the plot

opaque coyote
#

True but

jade holly
#

they try too hard to make him creepy and edgy

opaque coyote
#

The face ripping off itself

#

Sounds perfect in what he'd do for shits and giggles

#

It's quite edgy

#

Obviously

#

But I can't help but like it

opaque coyote
#

Well that is horrifying

solid horizon
urban spire
#

big smile

opaque coyote
#

But honestly the thing about flayed ones is that

#

The skin isn't fresh™ enough to look intimidating

solid horizon
#

theres this one

#

most people paint them with fresh skin

opaque coyote
solid horizon
#

GW just doesnt have the balls to make them bloody

urban spire
#

flayed ones suffer greatly, putting them out of their misery is a genuine kindness

opaque coyote
#

Like the dead skin unironically looks more like ham

solid horizon
steel ingot
#

long ass fingernails bro

opaque coyote
#

Hell for them

steel ingot
#

cut those nasty ass nails

opaque coyote
#

Hell for others as well

solid horizon
#

after repeatedly yelling "GO MY HAM DUDES GO" on DoW while spamming the reinforce unit button because i could not remember what their name was

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

i should grab the dow remaster

opaque coyote
solid horizon
#

I like flayed ones with claws more than flayed ones with long fingers

urban spire
#

and see what the modding scene is like

#

someone did the skitarii in dow i think

opaque coyote
#

But I can't help but wonder how the fuck they even like

#

Put the skin on

solid horizon
opaque coyote
#

Like imagine them finishing flaying

#

They try to put the skin on

#

Only for their long ass claws to accidentally slice the skin

#

Now they have to find a new person to skin

urban spire
#

problem i have with games where tabletop armies are represented is that ever since they put skitarii in the tabletop i'm always thinking "i wish i was playing skitarii in this"

opaque coyote
#

Maybe that's why some of them just like

jade holly
opaque coyote
#

Casually just place it on themselves

urban spire
#

even though skitarii vehicles are a little bit lame

opaque coyote
#

They can't really do anything else cause they can't sew

#

Due to those claws

solid horizon
#

I need to finish painting my dudes

jade holly
#

Body Horror vs whatever the fuck kinda horror he’d do

opaque coyote
#

Overall

#

Flayed Ones need to take lessons from Night Lords

#

They can sew human skin better

urban spire
#

why dont the necrons just make better bodies for their soldiers so they can be a real civilization again?

solid horizon
#

depends on the flayed ones I think

steel ingot
#

iunno i dont think anyone needs night lords lessons, they didnt even take their own lessons very serisouly

#

which is sorta the crux of their whole legion

solid horizon
steel ingot
#

i gotta take EVERY chance to slander night lords

steel ingot
#

money on the table its mine

#

LMAO

#

immortal undying classism

urban spire

man necrons suck

solid horizon
steel ingot
#

reagan the great cryptlord

someone should kill those guys

agreed

steel ingot
#

well the ELDAR were supposed to

solid horizon

the fellas stole my lovely android's job and thunder

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

tbf they had worse conditions for the nobility too

opaque coyote
#

That is a fucking accomplishment

steel ingot
#

the dumbass elf fucks couldnt pull their own ego out from their asses long enough to actually make a coherent resistance against the great awakening other than a couple of stupid dumbass plans

urban spire
#

that one wasn't really in their hands

celest dome
urban spire
#

being necrontyr was just a rough fucking deal

steel ingot
#

so now we have cron obamium pyramids all over the galaxy

#

great job ULTHWE

opaque coyote
#

And it's fucking hilarious as a redult

solid horizon
urban spire
#

civilians lived in mud huts and stuff i hear, though that's kinda just bits of humanity too in 40k

celest dome
#

Eldar were never meant to exterminate the Necrons tbf, even for Necrontyr they were just part of the Old One's army

steel ingot
#

im just slandering elfs

celest dome
#

Like Krork are a bigger disgrace

summer mural
#

basically
everyone in 40k got a bad deal and they suck

opaque coyote
steel ingot
#

its sorta well known they couldnt stop the great awakening

opaque coyote
#

The Necrons are the definition of

urban spire
#

the old ones really get done in by the fucking weirdo enslaver warp entities?

steel ingot
#

but also its well known they cant stop literally anything at all

opaque coyote
#

"Damn bitch you live like this?"

steel ingot
#

its sorta their thing

summer mural
#

except the nids

#

the nids are having a party

#

everyone else sucks

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

why didn't the necrons just leave their fuckass cancer star anyway

steel ingot
#

also just for posterity

celest dome
opaque coyote
#

That the Hive Mind is actually kinda freaking out because our galaxy has lasted like

#

This long

steel ingot
#

the barrackrons of the obamium dynasty..

(i stole that one)

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

isn't there some old bit of lore about how every other galaxy in this one is just wall to wall orks or tyranids

opaque coyote
#

"okay by now they should be eaten. Why aren't they FUCKING EATEN??"

storm jungle
#

this is like asking "why didnt humans not develop not to be able to breath air once we colonized mars"

opaque coyote
#

I think it's implied that it isn't just their DNA

#

But literally their fucking souls

urban spire
#

taking a deep breath and refraining from saying "that doesn't make any sense"

storm jungle
#

its sci-fi

opaque coyote
#

We have space magic

mst3k mantra

vagrant fox
#

soul-cancer don't care about no star

opaque coyote
#

But yeah, Necrons literally have soul cancer

urban spire
#

had anyway

steel ingot
#

Fr though why is the eldar like cataclysmically bad at stopping things they predict explicitly to stop

urban spire
#

no souls now lmao

summer mural
#

also the old man logan sequels after the millar run are so unbelievably yawn inducing, like get over it logan, for GODS SAKE MAN GET A GRIP AND STOP DRINKING SO MUCH

opaque coyote
steel ingot
#

EVEN LEFT TO THEIR OWN DEVICES

#

THEY STILL BIF IT

urban spire
#

you make an empire, you fuck up and the empire explodes

opaque coyote

That's the pride part

urban spire
#

how empires work

opaque coyote

#

OTHAT EMPIRE

opaque coyote
steel ingot
# vagrant fox

how the farseer looks at you after telling you "we're all gonna die bru"

urban spire
#

the eldar empire i mean

opaque coyote
#

We could've actually stopped it

#

If it wasn't for the fact that companies just refused to work with them

urban spire
#

someone once told me the fall of the eldar causing trouble for everyone was xenophobic writing

#

foreign empire evil etc

#

nah

#

missing the point

#

ALL empires evil

urban spire
#

empire is NO GOOD

storm jungle
#

"Why isnt anyone stopping orange man from making monuments"

#

🙂

#

"Why cant we fix our healthcare"

steel ingot
#

but like they have literal future seeing seers that so often just steer right into the vortex of problems

storm jungle
#

"Why is there no justice"

urban spire
#

fall is the fate of every civilization to practice empire

opaque coyote
hollow lantern
#

Damn, we should start killing people again

storm jungle
#

Eldar realistically should fate-read most of the time extremely well

#

but they just dont

#

because stuff going right is "boring"

#

(we call this bad writers)

steel ingot
#

okay fair

#

its just very funny

#

they are kinda like world class failures

storm jungle
#

Its like how an eldar farseer just doesnt jedi mindtrick an entire imperial guard regiment to kill themselves

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

farseers obsessed with getting the extreme long term plan to go just right, not taking the easy ws

storm jungle
#

because people will see that and call it bullshit

#

lol

storm jungle
#

because at the end of teh day they are against writers

#

not in-universe enemies

urban spire
#

true

steel ingot
#

so what we're saying is its a factor of edlar ego and writers not being nice to them

summer mural
#

gotta do the deadpool thing

storm jungle
#

Not really ego

opaque coyote
storm jungle
#

farseers literally do and focus on their job

opaque coyote
#

Or is it just me underestimating like

storm jungle
#

the writers are entirely at fault

urban spire
#

mainly writers not liking them really

summer mural
#

kill the writers to free yourself from your horrid setting

opaque coyote
#

Psyker powers again

urban spire
#

eldar have been punching bags for a LONG time

opaque coyote
#

Cause psyker powers are bullshit

summer mural
#

that reminds me, chaosgate deathwatch is gonna be a thing

storm jungle
#

Psyker powers in 40k are whateve rthe author makes them to be

opaque coyote
#

I swear psyker powers need to have actual defined limits

storm jungle
# opaque coyote Fair enough

They can do an eldritch storm which can cover an entire landmass, so a force-choke or mass-mindcontrol is like the least you can do

urban spire
#

i think they were doing something like that shit in one of the early gaunt novels

steel ingot
#

i guess im so used the elves of warhammer being so egotistical that its their main flaw

urban spire
#

back when dana bnett was REALLY just playing calvinball with the setting

storm jungle
opaque coyote
#

...

storm jungle
opaque coyote
#

Okay it would be cool for like

opaque coyote
#

The first time

urban spire
#

tolkien elves isn't egotistical

storm jungle
#

they were once

#

and thats all the writers took

#

its like how no setting ever makes elves and dwarves friends because the only bit they steal from LOTR is "grrr elves and dwarves must always hate each other" lol

urban spire
#

they HAVE been sitting there watching humans fuck everything up for a while

storm jungle
#

(this literally lasts for like 1 era in LOTR)

opaque coyote
# urban spire tolkien elves isn't egotistical

Like everything. It's a general mixture.

Funnily enough, despite LOTR basically making the planet of Hats trope, he tries to make the races somewhat varied in personality individually

summer mural
#

the elves are pretty humanlike in a lot of aspects, the tolkien elves have a fair share of otherworldliness baked into their bones

urban spire
#

legolas and gimli are friends in the lotr books...

steel ingot
#

at least the drukari are like that in spades

sharp pollen
steel ingot
#

love those freaky bastards

urban spire
opaque coyote
#

Would be fucking hilarious

steel ingot
#

absrudel vects comedy of errors

urban spire
#

he wanted orcs to have the ability to seek redemption too

opaque coyote
steel ingot
#

meanwhile warhammer orks are so fucking awesome and just love fighting hell yeah brother

storm jungle
#

Tolkien making orks evil is the reason we have dakka-wagons in 2026, imagine that ripple effect

opaque coyote
steel ingot
#

i was doing some research into ork creation and history and learning that only a small facet of tolkienism made it into orks was suprising but when you think about it yeah

storm jungle
#

I mean kind of?

#

a lot of LOTR ork tropes are in the Orks too

steel ingot
#

i mean compared to other stuff in warhammer

summer mural
#

alright, what in the name of sigmar is this fucking thing and why am I reading it

opaque coyote
hollow lantern
urban spire
#

i like lotr orcs a lot more than 40k orks

opaque coyote
#

The Orks were originally meant to be grey like Tolkein's

storm jungle
#

LOTR orcs are so famous Ghaz's middle name is literally from Uruk Hai

#

lmao

opaque coyote
#

But they made them green

#

And they stuck with it

#

And personally

#

Yeah I prefer green over grey

storm jungle
#

tbh

opaque coyote
#

It looks better

urban spire
#

green's a good orc colour

storm jungle
#

you prefer green because we've been exposed to it the most

#

if it was grey forever yall would say "green doesnt fit"

urban spire
#

if the sky was green we'd say blue was weird, so what

storm jungle
#

Its just how public exposure and perception work lol

vagrant fox
#

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu

I prefer lotr as a narrative story , and I prefer fantasy's faction designs, 40k is too bloated for me

oh shit is that the moon turk

Fantasy is peak tbh

I'm glad Cities are getting more stuff in AoS

anyway my earliest exposure to orcs was my mother reading the hobbit to me as a very young child so i think actually i am in the timeline where my first exposure was grey orcs/goblins

summer mural

hes bonebreaker

hollow lantern
#

I like 40k cause I Stockholmsed myself into it at 14 or so and now am stuck here

summer mural

hes a part of the reavers, you are correct

Also I just generally like the ridiculous vibe 40k has.

Would? They do already

Agripinaa wrenched all the cadians that landed on their planet

skitarii are just admech fodder

they just have better drip and are mostly metal

this is cadians now, sorry

hey whos hte most zealous forgeworld?

  • no think

ah gotcha

opaque coyote
hollow lantern
#

They turned the planet into metal because they figured it was the most pure form of worship

urban spire
#

it's not THAT bad

summer mural
#

the weapons are cooler, but somehow its all just fodder , because narrative restraint, with the kind of shit a skitarii grunt gets to fire they should be winning loads of battles all the time

opaque coyote
#

Obvious to everyone but you

hollow lantern
#

They have this cool scientist vibe going on

urban spire
#

they just aren't that physically resilient

opaque coyote
#

So steampunk

urban spire
#

gauss flayers gauss flay skitarii just fine

summer mural
#

I mean Id give those guns to the imperial guard and expect better results, it doesnt make logical sense yes, but the skitarii are just different aesthetic guardsmen with different lore

opaque coyote
#

Like their guns look like futuristic bolt action rifles and shit

gleaming gale
summer mural
#

yeah the riders are basically cowboys

#

they got revolvers shooting grenades

gleaming gale
#

And horses breathing fire

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

yes

opaque coyote
#

But due to them being a bit

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

Uh

summer mural
#

logically

opaque coyote
#

Lobotmized

arctic talon
#

Mars is pious

#

But “sane”

opaque coyote
#

I can imagine Skiitari would probably struggle with unorthodox planning

arctic talon
#

Metalica isn’t even pretending to be sane

arctic talon
hollow lantern
urban spire
#

skitarii are interconnected with the battle noosphere or whatever it's called, they're good soldiers drifty

arctic talon
#

If you want something lobotomized and follows a plan to the letter use a Servitor

summer mural
#

I mean they are lol, but they just end up being fodder anyway

rose thorn
#

I was just thinking about my forge wrold a bit, its a bit more difficult since the knight house lore came first. But also i dont have to write lore for the forgeworld lmao

arctic talon
#

You can have them bound to an existing forgeworld Tbf

#

lol

opaque coyote
urban spire
#

skitarii do have their memories mostly wiped, if they weren't vat grown

arctic talon
summer mural
#

my point was that in every metric the skitarii are better than your normal guardsmen soldier, mostly, which actually is true, but in most narratives skitarii grunts just get guardsmen results and guardsmen fodder level casualties

arctic talon
#

But pre 7e yes

#

lol

urban spire
#

pre 7e they were just red guardsmen

arctic talon
#

Because Martian standard skitarii didn’t exist yet

#

And the surrounding lore didn’t exist yet

urban spire
#

only less cool cause not soviet

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

Oh then yeah nvm

#

lol

rose thorn
#

the FW basically obliterated it self in HH and has been scrapping it self back together from it's ruins. The knight house has a ritualw here you gotta dig through the titan graveyard and forge (a power sword or something idk) from the scraps

#

im thinking the house symbol, the dragon fly, is some insect native to the planet that eats rust

#

trying to think of the personality of the admech of the planet

arctic talon
#

Penitent?

#

Idk

rose thorn

thinking between "WE FUCKING LOVEEEE KNIGHTS" o r "oh god were loyal we swear"

# magic niche What's eldar culture like anyway?

For the major craftworlds

Saim-hann: Wild, savage, clan based, literally drink each others blood ritualistically
Altaioc: super conservative, super safe and slow. So restrictive theres a ton of rangers from there who just want to get off the damn thing
Ulthwe: Psykers out the ass, truth seeking, hate chaos hate hate hate chaos, obsessed with preservation of the Eldar
Iyanden: depressing, sad, most of them died from nids, tons of wraith constructs, lots of corsairs.
Beil-Tan: Literally Hitler, super racist, super expansionistic
Lugganath: Yahar ematies, so many fucking corsairs and clowns around with them, also fuck the Drukhari
Mymeara: LOVE INDUSTRY MORE SUPER HEAVY VEHICLES, MORE ENGINES FOR VAUL.
Altansar: grim, stoic, very quiet, hate chaos, survived the eye of terror
Iybraesil: matriarchal, very militant

What's the difference between an eldar tank and an eldar plane then?

arctic talon

Eldar tanks are slower when flying

then a plane

thats fucking funny and horrifying

arctic talon

much less maneuverable
