Yeah the format looks the same
id be real sad if it went down, its like the best 40k meme source there is
Ye
damn bros
the carcharadons are raven guard successors that for some reason added night lords genes in em
That sounds like an awful idea
What make you say that they are raven guard successor?
there's a lot that says theyre raven successors seems like
two books straight up say they are
and in the rules theyre listed as raven guard successors
Hmm yes, just generic birds here in the Raven Guard
they got wings shut up
hmm
Well, that seems to solve all then... Although it is the first time i heard this
Eh, i don't know how much neato tbh
yeah it seems like the common opinion is "no one knows" but there's official stuff that straight up says they're raven guard
(successors)
that somehow added night lords juice into them
They are Night Lords. They have a small stock of RG geneseed that they dont use. They just send it in for their gene tithes. Or trade it for war material to the Ashen Claws (who are Raven Guard)
Aren’t the Carcharodons chimeric, with a mix of RG, NL, and WE geneseed?
wait. you mean to tell me you're not a screaming Tau office worker?
No
People think "WE" because they're brutal in melee. Completely forgetting that the Night Lords are too
And people think chimeric because....well there really isnt a reason. People just throw "chimeric" towards any traitor legion successors because I guess they dont like the idea of a traitor legion successor just having traitor legion geneseed
the chimeric thing comes from the two black library books that state that they're chimeric, i thought
Some of the final nails in the coffin comes from some Night Lords who were fighting the Carcharadons (over the same recruiting grounds. because they have the same recruiting methods)
Nope. Nothing states they are chimeric
These Loyalists were different from the ones he’d outwitted in the past. None of his Claw leaders reported having ever encountered them before. Even Shadraith was seemingly without answers, practically abandoned by his pathetic daemonic patron. Their fighting style was not one Cull recognised. If anything, it seemed eerily like the Night Lords’ own doctrines.
The Night Lords were caught off guard that any loyalist actually fought like them
And the Carcharacadons knew exactly how the Night Lords fought (since that was their style as well)
Twice Cull had watched in silent fury as Loyalist squads had refused to take the bait and follow up on retreating cultist squads that would have led them into carefully laid ambushes. And on the single occasion where the Night Lords had gained the upper hand – where Artar’s Fourth Claw had managed to split and outflank a Loyalist squad that had pushed too far ahead of the support in the tunnels either side – the corpse-worshippers had broken from combat and disengaged.
that is cool
sweet
Then a daemon the Night Lords were working with directly calls the Carcharadons the "lost brothers" of the Night Lords
‘Others?’
The Hunters in the Void. Your lost brothers.
‘That means nothing to me. Do not speak in your senseless riddles, daemon.’
The Pale Nomad and the rest of his mongrel, exiled kin. You have seen him with your foresight. You will know them when he arrives. Find the boy before he does.```
Yeh
On the subject of their geneseed. The corpse of a "Carcharadon" was found abandoned (suspicious, if you know how the Carcharadons work) and it was tested and found to have what was most likely "Raven Guard" geneseed. But then, in a Carcharadon's book. It was shown they dont actually use that geneseed besides for sending in as tithes and trading for gear. Leaning to them having left that corpse as a decoy
Even the Ashen Claws, a rogue successor chapter/warband of Raven Guard call them "traitor-born"
‘Sit down, Brother Tanthius,’ snapped a voice. The command did not come from Nev, but from the human woman sitting beside him. She glared at the Space Marine who had risen. The Ashen Claw glanced at his Chapter Master, but Nev’s black eyes hadn’t left Sharr’s. After a moment, Tanthius retrieved his seat.```
When mentioning they were trading RG geneseed, they call it "your" genetic legacy (speaking to the Ashen Claws), not "our" genetic legacy. The Ashen Claws also ask if it was actually RG geneseed, and not whatever geneseed the Carcharadons use
‘You have not contaminated it with your disgusting breed?’ Nev demanded.```
OooooOOHHH
so you're sayin they pretend to be raven guard so no one's like "dude why are we letting night lords just chill with us?"
Yep
kind of fucking awesome
Only the Ashen Claws seem aware of this. Tho as the Ashen Claws are considered renegade (even if they are still loyal) the Carcharodons arent worried if they try to rat them out
Very NL thing to do
Carcharadons are kinda SICK!!!
omg
I gotta read dis
aight so all i gotta do is read
Master of Mankind, Lord of the Night, Blackstone Fortress: Ascension, and then I can read the Carchar books!\
SHARK SCREAM
Night Lords vs Carcharodons. So Traitor Night Lords vs Loyalist Night Lords.
I'm very willing to say that the Carcharodons are actually descended from one of the purged primarchs, purely because their signature mutations are unique (despite similarities to other chapters) and their aesthetic does not match that of any of the other legions (they follow what strikes me as a pacific islander theme).
They have too many similarities to the Night Lords to not be Night Lords. And that daemon points out they are Night Lords.
Daemons lie.
On the other hand, the purged Primarch gene-sons were dispersed through the XIII and the VII.
And I think one more legion received them.
No that's Soul Drinkers
Soul Drinkers are from a Lost Primarch
is there a quick reference to all the numbers relating to the primarchs
?
I can never memorize them
I thought soul drinkers were of dorn stock
brohs
are you telling me
that Fulgrim loved Ferrus Manus so much, he had him cloned multiple times just so he could have him on his side again?
Nope. It's confirmed they aren't
Despite being "2nd Founding" Imperial Fists
And each clone told him to go fuck himself
Except Fulgrim tried to corrupt the clones. The clones said no and Fulgrim murdered them in a rage
He just wanted his bro back...
Even though he was possessed by a demon
he still wanted his bro back..
His bro wanted none of what he was selling

STOP WITH THE SPONGEBOB EMOTES
the fuck

LOL
Very well.







but why
oh hey its the werewolf guy, hes awesome
like, I know that there was a thing of making them like rifles but
even in the anime someone goes ''your guns look ridiculous'' before they get shot
LOL YEAH
THIS WOMAN
Right in the cheek too
GETS AFUCKING

then he just throws her a fucking medkit
chad
very



ok that's too far
wew
Who?
She means Roen i think lol
Ah
@crisp heath Also I forgot another link between the Carcharadons and the Night Lords. Possibly hinting at their founder
A vision that Sevatar has, towards the end of the Horus Heresy:
breathing. A sense of serenity cloaks him, and a feeling of cold, cold focus that
has eluded him for decades.
When he dreams now it is not of the dead, but of the endless night between
worlds. The deepest void, where a thousand threats drift, away from the light
of loyal suns. The domains of aliens and monsters forced into exile by the
Great Crusade, still crying out to be extinguished once and for all. The true
threats to mankind.```
^ that is the long and short of what the Carcharodons are
What their mission is
Mhm
None of the Night Lords exhibit shark-like traits like sandpaper skin, though.
Likely just a mutation developed over the thousands of years
It seems very specific, though, similar to the Space Wolves and the Canis Helix
god i hate it when i randomly get shark skin
And I think it's something that isn't standard to the Carcharadons
Tho they all do have a deathly pallor
The Raven Guard also have pale skin.
Yep. And its a way they disguise themselves as Raven Guard.
Already went over where the lore mentions they arent Raven Guard

don't tempt me

idk what's going on in here since half the messages are apparently from someone(s) i have blocked but im callin a penalty on @plucky moth
unnecessary horniness, 15 yards
unless there was some context making such acceptable, in which case disregard

brohs i cant stop thinking about the sharkmans
the what?
woa
Which Chapters do we know that could be those?
I thought they were just mean Raven Guard successors, but NuclearMedic showed me some pretty substantial proof that they're Night Lords who were sent far far away and got back way after the Heresy happened and remained loyal, pretending to be Raven Guard sucessors.
Hard to say, honestly. The dispersal happened before the Horus Heresy itself, hence before the concept of Chapters themselves as we know them today.
I have a bit of a fan-theory and personal head-canon that Sigismund was a Legionary from one of the Lost Primarchs, in that his temperament clashed pretty wildly with his Primarch’s.
There's still the gene-seed tithe
There was also the whole, ‘You’re not my son’ line lobbed at Sigi
It’s all very murky among the disparate authors in the BL.
carcharodon is the name of a sick fucking dinosaur
Yeah the last I know
💕
where are the dinosaur themed space marine chapters i ask you
exodite gang exodite gang
Where? I dont see any models
" History and Etymology for carcharodont
Greek karcharodont-, karcharodōn having jagged teeth, from karcharos jagged + odont-, odōn tooth"
There we go

it's Greek
😩
Good point. I dont think I know of one. Good idea for custom chapter.
I like the shark boys. It's fun with loyalist chapters that are nuts.
dont fucking talk about it
the
exodites i mean
my fucking sorrow
quite possibly the coolest faction
elves with dinosaurs.
no models
lemme guess
does that seal have an eye infection
Even the Imperial Guard had Rough Riders with dino style mounts in lore.......also sad lol
eldars riding dinos in 40k
no they made him eat cement
kinda cool
😩
finally someone agrees
and not just craftworlders on dinos
if they're just craftworlders on dinos i'll be pissed
ye ik, they wear feather cloaks and all
and they are
We triggered the elves again.
i have arisen
,,, not that they'll ever do the range
Someone bring in the orks
but i can dream
Yes or an upper respiratory system infection 
Meme ruined 

Arent i fun 
Exodite units would be really cool to see, I would also really like to see Dark Mechanicum stuff.

Yall get primaris
Hell yea we do
and if you moan you get a spanking
Aos gang
WHAT IS IT WITH YOU AND ONUT AND BUGS

Tyranids are actually not from Earth
they're extragalactic entities

haha :)

Shame on all you who derail the topic of this channel, keep this channel pure and untainted by horny and bugs and elves and other stuff... SHAME!!
<skitters across the floor and into the air vent>
fear

Played a game with my cousins the other day where we were CIS attacking Kamino and I got grievous and a bunch of dudes line up on the edge of one of the bridges over the water for cover. I used his sitter ability and it was like Clone bowling
Knocked like 4 dudes off the edge
I had this dragon charge build for my warrior on wow, it's an ability with big knock back. I'm crap at pvp but if the mp was right I could knock people off the deep end left and right
Good times
sorry brother
still thinkin bout those shark mans
you seem a touch obsessed with them
been thinking about them for, what, a day and a half?
I know the feeling
Same thing
This is how my mind works. I get unreasonably obsessive about one thing for like 4-7 days
hmm
I think it works like that for most people no
well, have fun with your temporary obsession that may or may not be a hyperfixation
ADHD hyper focus. I know the feeling well. You will get obsessed with it. Run it into the ground. Then basically care next to nothing about it for awhile
Kinda what it sounds like
Fug, that would explain why i cant concentrate on anything for more than 3 minutes
🤓
I don't know man
I think most nerds have that no
A period of completely nerding out about something specific
The worst thing is when it passes imo
Yup
Take the warhammer community joke challenge
Hear the unfunny overused heavy flamer joke 464336335643554 times after you posted somthing somebody didnt like
You feel empty i imagine
Hrm... Are there any loyalist World Eaters? Or Word Bearers?
Since both of those legions purged themself from loyalist i think there were... If you are asking about 40K time IDK
I remember a world eater that was a loyalist... Varren his name iirc
ALL the traitor legions purged themselves of loyalists, and ALL the loyalist legions purged themselves of traitors
They generally did not do a good job.
Wait, no, I think that might be wrong.
I don't think there was any purging in the Thousand Sons.
They just kinda almost all got soul-yoinked by Tzneech.
The ones who escaped formed the Blood Ravens.
The blood ravens are unconfirmed still right?
As for their geneseed, it seems unaffiliated
I think it’s unconfirmed, yes, but it goes for some nice lore.
The only thing that ties them together is saying the same phrase once.
What about the Blood Angels? I haven't heard of any BA issues during the HH. ironic concidering they have perhaps the most Khornate geneseed of all the legions
They all suffered the black slap near the end
BA didnt have traitors outside of the backlash from sangs death i think?
Those werent even traitors. Just went berzerk
that just reminds me of the "you know what f**k you unplagues your marines" but for bezerkers
un-khornates your bezerkers
Well some Flesh Tearers have since gone Chaos. But yeah, during the Hreesy, they were all good boyos
Khorne I presume?
yeh
well thats about as suprising as magnus reading a book 
Welcome on to the Spectrum. Here we love to find new stuff to love for a week or two.
hyperfixations bestfixations
should i go to a psychiatrist? 🥸
Just go with it :p
But remember not to go spending money on whims.
I've managed to teach myself that if there's something I feel I really want, I should wait a few days then go back to it and see if I still want to buy it. If I still want it, it's something I won't regret getting.
I went to etsy last week to buy one paint holder. Spent like 200+
the paint holder things are highkey useful tbh
It's a good thing I don't really have enough money to spend like that.
But I spent my 20's being very bad with money.
Im sorry
That was my fault
no nooo, you're fine buddo
I love your PFP. Where's it from? :D
You don't just use one of those k-cup tree things?
Imagine not using a wet pallet
mine is one of the rack things
Oh, nice.
they're very cheap, it's just ploughwood or whatever
Fuuuuc mt right arm is sore
F
Vaxeem pain?
Yup
Mine has been hurting since yesterday when I got it
Stop playing with yaself and let it rest
Im fully vaccinated tho
i'm gradually looking forward to getting vaccinated less and less
No i use my left arm for that
maybe they do cause autism
i had 0 complications
fair
Most complaints ive heard from my family members that got vacc'd was just their injection spot burning slightly but nothing much else
No but the do cause you to be super cool
When the 5G towers turn on and Biden feminizes america 😳
Whats Amerika
Bimboification towers
the thing is, no one says anything when they dont have complications, you only hear about the pains
yes please
nooo not my already minimal intelligence!
😳
give us what liberals have always wanted
honestly bimbo ladies r kind of based
I hate biden's name so much, i keep thinking of [redacted}

It's art I commissioned of my Draenei in WoW!
I colored in the eyes and lips :p
Did you forget to lift with your legs?
nah, i got a bulging disc
and the pain has moved from just my leg
to my entire BOTTOM HALF OF MY BODY
Fuck that. Sorry to hear. My mother has had trouble with that too.
Spines are a mess
Nerve damage pain is the worst pain possible in my experience
i really didnt know anything could hurt this much lol
I've had gallbladder stones a few time. It's pure misery
At least sony had the common courtesy to preload the ps5 with 50 gigs of sissy hypnosis as a selling point
I feel that muscle relaxant medicine works much better than pain suppressors
ive been taking literally everything
but tomorrow they injecting my spine
I dunno what can be done for you. Except finding out what makes it happen to prevent that.
good luck with that injection
Oof
Ey, I've had spinal injection
"Please bend a bit more"
Only america treats life as a Pay2play service

Become a refugee, flee to some rich country that speaks English
Not Holland though, it's cramped.
go to Spain?
Finland is great
A lotta Brits just got ejected from Spain
anything in scandinavia is pretty gucci
thanks to the Brexit they voted for lmao
gets lonely and dark though
As a Swede, I'm rather jaded to my own country so I can't sing its praises.
Dont come to the netherlands
Well of course lots of things are great here, but compared to our neighbours I don't think we are.
we're all good at different things amigo, i have a friend in norway that still doesn't have fiber
I think everywhere has housing problems.
Yeah pretty much
Neither do I :(
how in the world...
I got uh, 500-600 mbit down and 10 up.
Its a case of housing vs nature and people not wanting to give up more nature at this point here
And only 1 ISP
I'm literally stuck with this ISP and they can do whatever htey want.
Where does thou livw
Aah oof
I live in an apartment, which is why I can only have ComHem
Ahhh
America made a deal where only like 2 isps can be in one area
Yepp
i think most of the world is aware of the horrible ISP sits in america
lmao
i swear to god sometimes i wonder if the US isn't just like 3 giant corporations in a trenchcoat
America is just a cancerous swell on itseld, sorry americans
joe bideogame says hes gonna do something to isps
yes we know
But I suppose it ain't as expensive as some other countries. I wouldn't mind lowering my internet bill by half.
we know very well
Do something? I wouldn't hope for anything positive for the consumer. He could just let them have MORE control.
i really do hope you're not superfucked from your hospital bill though
it always pains me to hear stories of american healthcare
since i work healthcare myself
yeah... we'll see
you got a good insurance?
I fuck the government with my hospital bills. They deserve it.
I have a pretty good plan, but there's limits to that
and ive been going a lot
to the hospital and docs
should try to direct that hate towards the people at djursholm

Happily haven't been to a hospital in years. Pepper pepper...
is that a saying outside of sweden?
good luck lol
Nah, I think it's more throwing salt over your shoulder or something :p
Knock on wood
true true
Iceland, I dunno, dating is probably difficult :p
implying it isn't everywhere
I heard nice things about iceland
the focus on tinder nowadays burns my soul
I dont really know what problems they have.
One thing i heard about iceland is that they have huge record of family tree, so you can know if you are dating your cousin
that is true
Yeah they know everyone well
ashkenazi jews used to do the same thing
I suppose living space is a premium
And that they are also interested in new people going there to live
iceland is very expensive
So to increase the genetic pool
even by our scandinavian standard
I think i would like iceland... Cold like my heart, no need to go out for social life... And probably good net connection too
Japan gives out "breeding licenses" too. No joke.
lol
Big lifting goth GF
well, i can tell you one thing bout sweden, there is a craze when it comes to lifting weights
😳
so plenty of women do actual weightlifting here
👌
In sweden there is still mandatory military service?
didn't they restart it again?
it stopped like 15 years ago
but there has been talks about starting it up again
Maybe i misremembering with finland then
They might've? I've not heard of it
finland has conscription
Look, i'm not good at geography
"fter att ha varit vilande sedan 2010 återupptogs en del av värnplikten 2014, då redan krigsplacerade kunde kallas till repetitionsutbildningar. Från 2018 utökades värnplikten och nu mönstras årligen ett stort antal 18-åriga män och kvinnor för grundutbildning.
Utbildningens längd är mellan 6 och 15 månader. Den första delen utgörs av så kallad grundläggande militär utbildning (GMU) och pågår i tre månader. Den följs av en befattningsutbildning på upp till 12 månader.
Utöver grundutbildning omfattar värnplikten även repetitionsutbildning, beredskapstjänstgöring och krigstjänstgöring." @coarse mirage
we do have conscrption apparently
They're increasing military budget in Sweden though and re-opening some uh, I dunno the name for it...bases?
i don't think it's superforced though
wen sweeden goes to war with norway over who made black metal
Isn't like, if you say you don't want they don't make you, they'd rather concentrate on trainign the people that do want to
yea
Norway
Norway did
i still think it's called conscription though
(i know)
in english
im jus tryina make jokey
norway used to be swedish, so technically swedes made it 
What about we move to #735951004989784104 ?
yes good idea
Could of not had church burnings
If
They all just fucked eachother
Now moving to off topic
So how hard is it to become a swede... like nationality?
i always wanted to migrate north
just marry one
alas im occupied
yea sometimes you have to deal with shit , i guess
but in the end its all worth it
just read a funny shortstory about the Aquilan shield retinue and a Kriegsmen
From where?
West Europe
There's a fair bit of west Europe.
Eh. What's the big difference between Spain and Ireland. Really? Ya seen one part of Western Europe, ya seen it all
/s
Ghegheghe
Why are the sisters of silence female only?
Cuz misters of milence doesn't sound as snappy
Blanks can be male or female
Yeah like i said just a stylistic choice i think
I think most of the authors like making them women
They needed a reason to make ladies with top knots
Already plenty of dudes with top knots in 40k
The Emperor was equal oppertunity. Custodes can only be male (due to the process of their creation), so didnt want to come off as sexist]
He coulda just made custodladys if he was worried about being called sexist
Lmao
It doesnt work on females. Otherwise he would have
They made up an excuse for that too?
what is it this time
Lmao
Is there different levels of blanks?
Yes
Im genuinely curious btw
The only reason it doesn't work for women is because the hand of fate (read: gw) made it so
Its not stated why it doesnt work on women. Only that it doesnt. The selection process of Custodes is extremely strict. With very few of those given to them for recruitment actually making it. Big E wouldnt artificially restrict the recruitment pool by 50%.
Ok word, cause sometimes they describe it as a minor unease, and sometimes some people are like “JESUS CHRIST KILL THAT THING WHAT THR FUCk”
Yup guessed as much, thanks though medic 👍
But lets not get too much into the "Where's muh lady custodes? Or wheres muh female space marines?!" Because that convo never goes anywhere.
That's why it's fun
Female custodes make sense though
female marines is just "too late to market and sculpts were bad back in the day so YEET"
LOL
Lorewise too, it makes more sense for the more production-quality (sm) to have tighter restrictions on what they're made from than with the handcrafted custodes
Yeah really its just marketing/sculpting department nonsense.
IIRC it is stated that some male blanks serve the SoS, but not as an active SoS, only as aides
The only reason female stormcasts exist is because GW realised they can be really inclusive and create a bigger market.
Lucky sods
Also it depend on which story about the creation of the sisterhood you take
Also that reminds, you should see the sisterhood's head honcho-lady
she was so toxic/blank that she was invisible
LOL
Oi, moderate your words when talking about best SoS Janetia Krole
The human mind could not comprehend a psychic presence so obtuse
It isn't explained why blanks can be invisible to normal people afaik
She gets killed by Kharn the Betrayer during the siege of terra, and even he doesnt know what he just killed, only there is blood splatter lol
same
She was also one of the closest confidant of Big E
Basically the SoS version of Valdor yep
The best thing is that she seemed to be quite humble too... Really, a great character
Aaaaand he died to fking kharn
Yes
Lol
He couldn't see her, and he swinging axes like the madman he is killed her
Probably something instinctively though
Yeah it was no joke literally
"what the fuck?"
looks around
"guess that happened"
shrugs and runs off
Yep
Only few people could see her
They could see her, its just her blank aura was so strong that their brains would be like "Nope. I didnt see nothing" as soon as he was no longer in direct line of sight
Also you wanna know something more about the SoS? Of course you want!
They are normal humans in power armour (like the less cool sob), but their bolters use the same calibre as the SM ones (unlike the less cool sob ones, that have a scaled down calibre)
They are Horus Heresy/Great Crusade patterns too. Umbra pattern
Oi, keep your hands away from them, i know your interest for relics and old stuff, but those are theirs only
I dont take the relics for myself.
They are using them. So its all good
Oi, @storm jungle
Im not a Blood Raven. As long as the relics are being used, and being used properly, then thats exactly what I want
I'll keep my eye on you 
Actually a better example is that im not Trayzn. The Blood Ravens atleast use their relics regularly. Even if they arent really their relics
I want a book where the Consecrators find out the Blood Ravens have Dark Angels relics, que the Consecrators launching a raid against them to recover the relics
I voted for a consectrators book, you saw it
shame everyone wants Gav's stupid eldar books again


Delete knife ears, arise relic hunters
🔫 



The Consecrators kinda did that once. But they got permission
The recovered the heavenfall blade of the original chapter master of the Disciples of Caliban. They took it to the Dark Angels (since Azrael is the Supreme Grand Master of the legion) and offered it to them to be re-issued to the DoC, but Azrael told them to keep it by right of recovery
Nah, lets be serious.
They're Dark Angels. Their reliquary was too full for another holy sword of legend
Funny. Because the Consecrators have more relics than the mainline Dark Angels
Their flagship is called the "Reliquaria"
Blood Angels want to know your location
Do you mean Blood Ravens?
They are
Index Astartes: Blood Ravens
god i just love seeing dreadnoughts just pick up shit and crush it
quick, someone give that man METHUL BAWKSIES
Hey guys I am still learning about the different Astartes legions and I was just curious. What are the defining traits of the blood angels?
I would say the biggest defining traits are their nobility and general love of the arts, and the constant battle within them to prevent their fall to the black rage. That's putting it very basically though.
Poor Banshee
So would you say their love of the arts is akin to the Emperor's Children pre-heresy?
In fact both of those things sound like them
No, I would say their love of the arts is more akin to keeping them in touch with their humanity, rather than a desire to be perfect
Interesting. I am going through Horus Heresy and still haven't gotten to a book centered around them.
if i recall correctly, before sanguinius was found the blood angels were basically just as savage and bloodthirsty as the world eaters. But their primarch's return helped transform them into a legion of noble warriors
That sounds pretty cool. I always find stories of primarchs uniting with their legions to be very interesting. Legion origin stories are always pretty cool. May I ask what black rage basically is?
the black rage started at the end of the Horus Heresy when Sanguinius was killed by Horus. The psychic backlash was so intense that it left a genetic imprint on the gene-seed of the blood angels that causes the blood angel in question to experience that final battle as if they were Sanguinius himself, when under extreme battlefield duress. Once you fall to the black rage, you cannot come back from it
they are nigh unstoppable in that state and are kept sealed away until dire circumstances require them
unless you're mephiston, then you just get stuck under some rocks and you're good to go.
I probably butchered some of that, but i'm not the most well versed on the blood angels
I haven't read the parts yet that discuss the legions who lost their primarchs in great detail yet but to lose one must be worse then losing a father
they are formed into the death company
and their red armor painted black
as an example
So if I see a blood angel painted red it is pre-horus heresy end?
oh yeah i forgot they also see every enemy as Horus
LOL
yup thats the big one
That's great
Kinda dumb that they can't tell the difference between say, a chaos character (representing Horus) And a tyranid.
usually the final words of a space marine before falling into the black rage is screaming for the emperor
There is also the fan theory that the final battle between Horus and Sanguinius actually went down very differently
What happens is that Sagnuinius kills Horus but falls to the black rage himself, and when The Emperor shows up he is mortally wounded and is force to kill Sanguinius
also when sanguinius fell his legion on terra fell into the black rage instantly and unleashed such a savage counter attack against the traitors that several started to retreat
yeah i have heard it too but just leaves one big gaping hole
I am so far from the Siege of Terra
how did the emperor take all those wounds then
Would you want to kill your actual favorite son instead of trying to find a way to save him first?
I thought Guilliman was the favorite
yeah its a little hard to believe sanguinius could take on chaos empowered horus 1v1
especially after sanguinius is exhausted from defending the eternity gate and a battle against kabandar
i could believe it simply because of the black rage angle that theory has on it
actually was it eternity gate or some other vital entrance into the palace
i cant recall
i could accept that Sanguinius falling to the black rage has more dire consequences to it than an astartes falling to it
understandable
I feel like not going for the head would be out of character for him seeing that he is basically the emperors executioner
that's actually the really funny thing about the Horus Heresy. it could have been prevented in a lot of ways if they only communicated with each other better
Magnus did nothing wrong
Magnus did everything wrong
magnus was the king of fuck ups
Hey just saying things would have been different if they had heeded his warning
He did do wrong but it could have been better for it
yeah but that fuck up wasnt an oppsie
it also would have been better if he had listened to Russ' offer of parley
instead of just ignoring it
lemon got tricked by whorus
Further proof that hes stupid
and yet magno still sided with chaos

Magnus wanted to surrender to Russ right. It was his sons who fought and denied him the chance. Magnus even lowered the defenses of Prosperro
Also when I say he did nothing wrong I meant just sending the message
I thought it was Magnus realized he had been played by Tzeentch the entire time, and just wanted his legion to face death with honor?
Magnus realized that pretty quickly, and yet he still gave himself to tzeneetch
Regardless of the motivations Magnus was going to surrender to his brother
The emperor could have just said "Hey I have wards on Terra, don't break them or Deamons will go ape shit up in here."
I actually just read that part today
let's not even get started on what the Emperor did fucking wrong
that is a laundry list right there
It's a whole tome of shit
If you take morality out of the equation, he did everything right.
the road to hell is paved with good intentions
Magnus even got an offer from big e that offered him redemption, but only for him, not for his legion, and magus was "nope, thanks i like my shapeshifting gene sons and like to be a pawn" and refused
thats big e in a nutshell
i guess that's what happens when you don't even fundamentally understand the species you're trying to help become rulers of the galaxy anymore
Still think Magnus was justified and the Trial of Magnus the Red should have swung the other way
Oh, and big e also told magnus to not believe anything that the warp entities would show him, did he listen to that? No he didn't
The biggest problem of the emperor is that he had become so alien to the rest of humanity that he really did not understand them at all. he simply could not comprehend that they don't always make choices based on logic or reason
no i think he did
Many people saw that, some because the warp, other because things were going weird, but no one believed that... Dorn kill a SM because tell him that horus was a traitor, guillman punish one of his SM that simply thought about making battle plans for inter legion warfare...
Well that happens when you are an emperor so powerful mortal men become like babies in your presence just by looking at you
he was just prepared to sacrifice anything and everything to accomplish his vision and freeing humanity from the warp
which ultimately was his downfall in the heresy
Are you sure about Dorn? When I read about how he learned of the heresy he was angry but let the woman who told him live
he was also so focused on the BIG picture that he forgot that sometimes the small picture can have dire consequences
indeed
Yes, he killed a SM not a woman
van saar is correct in this matter i believe
The real question is, Why was Konrad not bothering to do more? 😛
he had already resigned himself to his fate i think
nihilist in the purest sense
he saw the future as unchangeable and fate
likely could have killed Horus if he was so amazing at telling fortunes.
theres a really sad scene with him talking to sanguinius on macragge
where the night haunter fades away for a second and you see the broken curze underneath
No yeah I was right I just looked it up Dorn learned of it from the survivors of the Eisenstien. The rembrencer woman showed him
Mersadie Oliton
Hi all Wolf Lord Rho here,
Today we continue our look at the conversation between Konrad Curze and Sanguinius. As we get a final glimpse of the true Konrad Curze beneath the Night Haunter.
The events we are discussing today are from the Horus Heresy novel "Pharos". As always I really recommend you read the novel for yourself first. Not only do...
timestamp
That's how Dorn learned and he did not kill her
Ah, i was wrong, he nearly killed garro, but was furious to anyone who suggested that horus was a traitor
Curze almost killed Dorn when he tried to warn him about the Horus Heresy.
Dorn was like “shut the fuck up”
its sad he so wanted to die by sanguinius hand as it would prove his visions wrong
And curze just tore chunks out of him
IDK about that Curze was only a half astarte and one advanced in age
wat
Its not speculation, it happened.
or am I thinking of the wrong one they had a half astarte with them
curze is a primarch
Curze was a primarch
Who was the Half Astarte former Luna Wolf they had with them?
one that could go toe to toe with quite a few other primarchs
Qurze?
I also think part of the reason he wanted Sang to kill him is his need for punishment. The whole vindication thing.
Iacton qurze?
possibly
That's the one I mixed up the C and the Q
but i think mainly it would have proved his visions of the future wrong
and that fate isnt written
He isn't half astartes though
he would have died with hope in his heart
Curze’s precognition seems different than most of the others
it was on par with sanguinius
Emperor describes his precog as multiple futures
I'm 99% sure there was a man who was only given some of the astarte augments and was refered to by the other Sons of Horus as a half herd
Yes, half heard was his unofficial title, but he was a full space marine, and one of the first of the legion
I havent read enough Sanguinius books to know if Sang had the “multiple futures” thing like Emps or only the 40k future
sanguinius had multiple futures
Well when I said half I was reffering to how others saw him. To help differentiate who I am talking about
Honestly out of all the Primarchs I like Guilliman & The Lion the most. despite all the flak Guilliman gets about being a mary sue, he actually fucks up and is wrong quite a lot, and while the lion is a hothead asshole he can also be a courageous and honorable warrior
Other saw him as an only grumpy old veteran
Did he receive the full astartes upgrades?
lion is going to be fucking PISSED when he learns of all the shit that has happened
Yes, he was a captain in the legion from the inception
Well yeah but so was Luthor.
I dig guilliman. I see him as an accountant turned king. He’s cool as hell imo
Nope, luthor became a semi space marine once the lion has been found big e
Is the legion start when they find a primarch or does it exist before?
@crisp heath there has been a massive effort to rehabilitate Guilliman and the Ultramarines in the eyes of the public, and i am glad for it
Qurze was in the legion before horus was discovered
They all existed before their primarchs were found
you mean this lad? https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Iacton_Qruze
I see I haven't read about any pre-primarch legions so I'll take your word for it
well for starters the Ultramarines before they found their primarch were called the War-Born
I have a lot of history with hating the ultramarines, but I accept their place now. Theyre the alphas of the wolf pack, and thats fine
Most of the time they changed name when reunited with their primarch
Theyre the chads of the bunch
@crisp heath i'm just glad that they aren't the best anymore
Yes, i was talking about him
space wolves still the chads though
I still see them as the best (if you had to rank them)
But that doesnt mean theyre perfect
anyone still hating Ultramarines can go read Know No Fear
@crisp heath they've had more stories where they have failed or barely survived, is what i meant
that book does wonders at making the more humane
well, as humane an astartes can be but still
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Know_No_Fear_(Novel) I shall just leave this here
Remember how everyone says Vulkan is the nicest bro in the universe
Lol, i just discovered that the original name for the white scars was the star hunters
but yeah, read it anyway it´s amazing book
i would still like if another chapter became the poster boys for a while though
But burned an elf child alive
as with all things 40k, they are a good concept but poorly handled in 80% of core lore
who would you want?
