I will speak to my dm about then emcarmine blade XD

peak hamlet
#

Most power swords are meant to be used two handed but they don't give a shit and use it one handed anyway

frosty cobalt
#

How bout see the difference between a chainsword and eviserator and do the math with a power sword

waxen shore
#

We)l that the thing i want a bigg one to wield it 2 handed

#

Oh yea

#

That could be nice

frosty cobalt
#

See if its balanced and bring it to ur dn

#

Dm*

#

Gotta say if i was cursed to be an SM id take a power sword. Chain weapons are great but i just wanna swish swish

peak hamlet
#

No love for superior power polearms 😔

rose thorn
#

is there anything really stopping abhumans from becoming skitarii?

cursive hull
#

The Ad Mech disliking them.

rose thorn
#

true

cursive hull
#

Its unheard of for abhumans to be in the priesthood proper.

#

Although...

#

We do know they'll turn anything into servitors

rose thorn
#

i know squats arent as disliked

barren tapir
#

Ogryns are know to be used for servitor, and something akin to skitarii iirc

rose thorn
#

by admech

barren tapir
#

But in general abhumans (ratlings and ogryns) aren't seen as good material for skitarii

rose thorn
#

my custom forgeworld is actually just a fleet ship that crash landed into a shithole planet and basically just becomes the game Factorio, im tempted to say that there was a small tribe of beastmen that they semi forcefully converted them to either servitors or skitarii

barren tapir
#

It would be more probable as servitors

rose thorn
#

since they are kind of shit out of luck they are trying to pull at any strings possible to not get fucking wrecked by everyone else

#

yea probably

rose thorn
#

what was that female tech priest's name?

open marsh
#

?

#

Adept Zeth?

safe mortar
#

** NO Spoilers** But if you have not picked up Mortis yet you need to. I will be so sad when the HH series comes to an end lol

gusty fulcrum
storm jungle
#

they arent dumb

#

holy shit

gusty fulcrum
#

they are literally extrememly low iq

#

ever read commisar cain the basicly have warning labels for children and ogryns on chemical jugs

cerulean wagon
#

spook

#

you're low iq

gusty fulcrum
#

Ogryns are literally stated as being dumb

#

Im not saying i dotn like them but they are ltierally stated to be dumb as rocks

cerulean wagon
#

They are stated to be variable

#

see: named ogryns and their stories

gusty fulcrum
#

Very little varience

#

THose are boneheads

cerulean wagon
#

Not all of em

gusty fulcrum
#

THink i dont know about nord deddog?

cerulean wagon
#

dedogg is yes, the ones in rogue trader werent

gusty fulcrum
#

Nord is considered the smartest ogryn

cerulean wagon
#

cool

#

what about the other 4 named ogryns

#

that all function fine

#

they are slow, yes, but not just stupid

gusty fulcrum
#

According to the lexicanum theres literally 2 named orgyns

cerulean wagon
#

the lexicanum is wrong then

gusty fulcrum
#

Some guy named Urok and Nord

#

Are you sure your not thinking of soem fan stories?

#

cuz theres a few that are popular fan stories

cerulean wagon
#

Blackstone fortress added Gren ‘Knuckles’ Broggan and Dorg

final spruce
#

Gren literally getting a small story

#

On how he thought of a way to save his brother and run away

#

Gren being the Bullgryn if I remember correctly

gusty fulcrum
#

Im not seeing much on them\

gusty fulcrum
#

Much less anything talking bout their smarts

cerulean wagon
#

official launch content on them

#

they were in a white dwarf story and had a side quest in blackstone to rescue them

final spruce
#

In short, most ogryns have the awareness and mental capacity of a child

#

Some are surprisingly more "intellgent"

#

Those guys become Bon'heads, aka now they can direct team follow orders etc

gusty fulcrum
final spruce
#

Like a Bone'head has the faculty to order to take cover because he sees big boom

#

But yeah, a majority of ogryns are children mentally yes

gusty fulcrum
#

Cuz isnt it something like a 5 year old mind?

final spruce
#

Old lore said 6 y old

#

But it has been changed since

gusty fulcrum
#

The stuff bout tehm drinking mercury laced water n shit still seems to be cannon though

#

cuz thats suppose to be in part why theyre so dumb or fine not dumb mentailly deffeceint

#

mercury and otehr things can cause mental definceincys

#

and what is effectivly down syndrome underdevoloped mind big muscular body

#

and im not saying that to be mean

#

basicly people have pointed that out about what they say bout the shit they consume at least the prison planet orignanted ogryns

#

cant say if its the same factors in ogryns from feral worlds

#

since those seem to be the two main types of planets that make ogryns

gusty fulcrum
#

Ya thats part of their originol lore

final spruce
#

If anything, ogryns are so stupidly tough they'd have no side effect of drinking mercury

gusty fulcrum
#

Prison planets with mercuray laced water and extreme gravity cold and hypervoilence

#

SO i also think they might have some form of arctic gigantism

final spruce
#

I'm pretty I read that lore recently and it was humans stuck on high gravity worlds where they devolved back to Unga bunga and law of the biggest

#

So yeah I'm a hit you with a fat X Doubt on that one chief

gusty fulcrum
#

The lore im familiar with is them coming from prison planets

#

Originating from cold, barren, high-gravity prison planets settled many millennia before the founding of the Imperium of Man, the Ogryns' distant ancestors were once normal Humans during the Age of Technology.

Thousands of standard years in the harsh terrains and brutal living conditions of their prison worlds after the start of the Age of Strife caused the fall of the first interstellar civilisation of Mankind forced their ancestors' bodies to adapt to their hostile environment.

final spruce
#

Then I don't know where you found it because it has nothing in common with all the sources I've read so far

gusty fulcrum
#

looks like the phased out the parts bout booze mercury and beating each otehr to death with pipes

#

Cuz thats how they used to write their description

final spruce
#

Oh, you're mentioning the prison world lore

gusty fulcrum
#

yaaaaaaaaaaa

#

thats why i said i cant say what causes it in feral world ogryns

final spruce
#

Well what I wrote

gusty fulcrum
#

Other then hypervoilence

final spruce
#

In short, live in an environment where biggest / strongest = survival like with catachans but back to the stone age because lore

gusty fulcrum
#

and ya like ya said going unga bunga

barren tapir
#

I heard many different stories about the origin of ogryns, one had them being humans that were on high gravity world where food was so abundant that you didn't had to "think", only to be strong and big, another one is where the planet was home of very aggressive fauna and again big and strong, and the newest that i met was the prison world one, which imo doesn't really make sense

final spruce
#

It doesn't yes, its 40k

gusty fulcrum
#

I never heard the one that makes sound like big ratlings lol

#
#

I always enjoyed this guys work

#

i dont know if any of his work has been made official but he does make alotta 40k lore stuff

#
#

id say most people would probly know this pic

#

thats the intial art that made me find his site back in like highschool

#

oh i guess he was a freelance artist for gw when he started this

storm jungle
#

especially when countless canon art shows marines as buff dudes but just taller

#

instead of SLAB OF MEAT

cerulean wagon
#

W I D E

gusty fulcrum
storm jungle
#

Its still bad

gusty fulcrum
#

Its his own interpretations of the 40k universe

summer niche
storm jungle
#

MEAT

summer niche
cerulean wagon
#

its fine that its his interpretation

gusty fulcrum
#

Obviously youve never read the stories where the actualy dont look liek just buff dudes

cerulean wagon
#

its still wrong

gusty fulcrum
#

The proportions are off to a normal humans eyes

cerulean wagon
#

ofc the proportions are off

#

have you seen how small their heads are

gusty fulcrum
#

uscle Mass Comparison

This chart is to give an idea of exactly how massive a Marine is. The Marine dwarfs a regular sized (real world western average) human to the far left. In full armour (far right) the Marine is significantly more massive. Much of the Marines power is not ‘magical’ but due to sheer bulk, improved muscle (ape/ Neanderthal?), and the increased muscle leverage due to the placement on the modified skeleton. The Marine is strong in the same way a chimpanzee’s or silverback gorilla is strong. It’s not magical just damn powerful by design!

Power: Combined with their power armour a Marine would find it very easy to move a regular human: a shoulder barge would go though most linebackers, door, and brick walls with ease! A punch would likely take an ordinary person off their feet and hurl them several metres through the air. A Marine is massive enough to grab a regular human by the ankles and wield them like a cheap club to beat their way through a crowd (until the man-club disintegrated from the impacts, but in a crowd, there are plenty of ‘weapons’! As humans are ‘bendy’, they’re probably a bit like wielding Nunchaku in a round about way smiley )

#

Ots becuase he went with the cponcept theyre musculature is closer to a gorillas

cerulean wagon
#

cool

#

thats still his interpratation

storm jungle
#

Looks like a buff dude to me

cerulean wagon
#

and not, you know

gusty fulcrum
#

Ya he says that

cerulean wagon
#

actual 40k lore

gusty fulcrum
#

Im jsut saying i like his ideas on it

#

He points out theyre just his ideas on things

#

doesnt mean i cant enjoy them

cerulean wagon
#

and we are just saying cool, its still wrong tho

gusty fulcrum
#

Not really its based on his own look and as we all have agreed nothing is really right wrong in the 40k setting

peak hamlet
gusty fulcrum
#

And actaully theres a few books that support this

#

He made his own lores to it

#

thats why i gave you guys the links

#

his is an index of all my Warhammer 40,000 (40K) ‘fan fiction’ concepts. These ideas came about while chatting to other fans in many of the Warhammer forums I frequent. These concepts deal mainly with areas not traditionally covered in the official 40K background material, such as Adeptus Mechanicus science, Imperial technology, and the mythical Dark Age of Technology. These areas of 40K are left open to speculation, and during these speculative discussions I like to put forward ideas that justify the image of 40K as seen in the artwork and stories. No matter how crazy Warhammer may seem I think it can be explained, and I endeavour to explain it away every chance I get! During the ensuing, and often lengthy, discussions on these forums my ideas were honed into the concepts that I present to you here. The musing can be used as a basis of scenarios for RPGs such as Dark Heresy and Rogue Trader. I hope to show that with a little imagination anything is possible. While based on the works published by Games Workshop, this is fan-fiction (Philverse) and should not be taken as ‘canon‘.

cerulean wagon
#

okay

#

so its fanfiction

gusty fulcrum
#

I said that

cerulean wagon
#

and not an actual 40k book

gusty fulcrum
#

I said i dotn know if his stuff was ever made truly official

#

He was an artist for alotta those books

cerulean wagon
#

considering this statement

gusty fulcrum
#

I guess you guys didint read any of my intial post about this stuff

cerulean wagon
#

none cannon

gusty fulcrum
#

ya i never said it was

cerulean wagon
#

aparently you didnt read what you posted

gusty fulcrum
#

I said i didnt know if any of it was made as in after he mae the site

#

Its pretty much the same site from my highschool days

#

Like since i last looked at him in what 10 years?

cerulean wagon
#

okay

odd sparrow
#

imagine considering there being any coherent canon in 40k

gusty fulcrum
#

was just thinking oh hey this is some neat take on things

cerulean wagon
#

and the point still stands
Cool he has a perspective, its still wrong and doesnt line up with actual lore

peak hamlet
gusty fulcrum
#

Its wrong according to you

odd sparrow
#

no there aren't

peak hamlet
#

Like horus betrayed big e

odd sparrow
#

Unless u wanna just like, idk

#

categorise it by author

peak hamlet
#

"B R O A D" topics

gusty fulcrum
#

Its not like hes just pulling everything outta his ass he is basing it around known lore and he even points out he was looking to try and fill gaps in stuff that isnt covered very well

storm jungle
#

40k is pain

odd sparrow
#

b r o a d

gusty fulcrum
#

hes not like trying to reinvent the wheel

#

just wanted to share what i thought was some neat ideas and art

cerulean wagon
#

all it takes spook is to look at one image of official SM to show they dont have necks or backs like the art for the philverse

#

to know its not how it be

gusty fulcrum
#

and hes not wrong even in the HH series Space marines look unnatural to humans from teh get go

#

One lady describes them as basicly having the looks of someone with gigantisim

storm jungle
#

@gusty fulcrum Yeah dont worry im just making fun of the ridiculous meat art, i got nothing against the guy's interpretation

#

its all free reign

cerulean wagon
#

yeah cause they are giant

storm jungle
gusty fulcrum
peak hamlet
#

What i dont like about his image (besides M E A T M A R I N E) are the flawed proportions of his armor

gusty fulcrum
#

he does point out on the actual page where he takes liberties

odd sparrow
#

he just likes wide muscular men

#

i cannot judge

gusty fulcrum
#

cuz hes pretty good about keeping what is canon and his own interpretations seprate

storm jungle
#

Yeah but the issue is like

#

the old 40k artists literally never account how marines should look

#

they just go

#

okay, big armor

#

put head on top

odd sparrow
#

oh god yeah

#

I feel like this is what happens when you don't present a Krieger with a life time of war.

#

They just get depressed and fat.

open marsh

Fastest way to torture a Krieger is to deploy them to a paradise world far away from any conflict zone and house them in the best accomodations available

They'd go insane

Headcanon: The Aettguard's autoguns fire .50 Beowulf rounds.

So... Heavy stubber

open marsh
#

No

#

.50 Beowulf isnt .50 BMG

barren tapir
#

Ok, what are the differences?

final spruce

Isn't beowulf used to hunt boar ?

Oh, wait you didn't invented the cartridge?

final spruce

Lol no it exists

#

Like you got different 9mm

open marsh
final spruce
#

Like the 9mm para bellum for example

lunar horizon
#

So

#

Bolters shoot rounds 2x the size of .50 bmg

vagrant osprey
#

Depends if the models are accurate

cursive hull
#

Bolters fire... What, .75?

vagrant osprey
#

Depends!

cursive hull
#

Well, Space Marine Bolters.

#

The IG ones fire .50

vagrant osprey
#

According to the models, it would be a 2.0cal

final spruce
#

SM bolters are said to be .75 meanwhile human bolters are .60

vagrant osprey
#

Maybe 2.5?

#

Bolters are one of the single most inconsistent things in 40k, tbh

rotund siren
#

iirc heavy bolters are officially 1.0 cal

#

or .99

#

something like that

final spruce
#

I mean all the sources have been pretty consistent for me

vagrant osprey
#

They're caseless gyrojet rounds with extremely high recoil which often involve ejecting brass after firing

cursive hull
#

I hate the caliber system once you get any larger than .50

#

It feels more natural to switch to MM after a certain point.

barren tapir
#

It is

#

But not only after a certain point, it is always better to go with mm

final spruce
#

The model currently used by most Space Marines is designated the Astartes MK Vb Godwyn pattern. The Godwyn-pattern bolter has a built-in ammo counter and uses a Sinister/Dexter locking mechanism with a sickle-shaped magazine carrying 30 rounds.[7b] It fires the standard Astartes .75 calibre bolt

Tigrus Pattern Bolter

The Tigrus Pattern Bolter was first discovered in the depths of Forge World Tigrus and the STC data for it was quickly disseminated throughout the Imperium before the beginning of Horus Heresy. The Tigrus pattern Bolter is a .60 caliber weapon as opposed to the modern .75 standard.

#

But then again

#

It's 40k, scales are fucked

#

Bigger caliber means better firepower right ? (its sarcasm)

rotund siren
#

yeah, the metric system is better overall

#

because it has logical progression

#

imperial was made by kings and peasants as needed

cursive hull
#

At least it isn't the insanity that some people use (Read: Inches.)

vagrant osprey
#

Caliber is inches

cursive hull
#

No, I mean like.

rotund siren
#

that is imperial

cursive hull
#

Battleship guns often get referred to by inches

vagrant osprey
#

... yes, because that is their caliber.

cursive hull
#

Despite being an American, I have no fucking idea the scale when someone uses inches.

Much more visceral to use MM.

vagrant osprey
#

"Fifty cal" is actually 0.50 cal

#

For half-inch

#

A 14 inch gun is 14.0 cal

cursive hull
#

Then again, I played WoT, I do play WT some times, and WoWS

And I do it with KM/H (Or Knots which is different), meters, millimetres, etc.

barren tapir
cursive hull
#

12.7mm is .50 cal.

That conversion I remember thanks to WT

rotund siren
barren tapir
#

Caliber can be in inches yes

vagrant osprey
#

"cal" is inches

#

Always.

#

Metric is marked with units.

open marsh
#

Also. Don't use models for scale.

#

Gonna have a bad time

cursive hull
#

Models are pretty innaccurate, yeah...

rotund siren
#

12.7 cal would not be 12.7mm ever

storm jungle

Yet GW maintains that the tabletop is the only true canon :V

storm jungle
#

But yeah stop trying to do math in this fashion

#

its all pointless in 40k and changes regularly

#

its a limboooo

final spruce
#

I'm just saying

#

Big caliber = big boom from the nerds at GW

storm jungle
#

Yeah this lmao

rotund siren
#

yea

#

I wouldn't even call them nerds tbh

storm jungle
#

You guys put more thought into this in 5 minutes than the guys at GW do in like 2

so yeah it doesnt matter

Man, I wish I had a clip from JP 3 for this

I'm talking about the guys that thought that SM were cool and big calibers awell

@vagrant osprey are you american?

vagrant osprey

?

barren tapir

It would explain to me why you are so convinced that caliber can only in inches

#

So, i wanted to ask

vagrant osprey
#

What? The context was the "cal" designator

storm jungle
#

cant wait for the last book

cursive hull
#

Lol, god damn it.

storm jungle
#

I had to lmao

gaunt vector

lmao

barren tapir
vagrant osprey
#

That's literally the context, though?

barren tapir
#

Anyone know what weapons is this?
It resemble the plasma incinerator of the primaris, but it is also similar to the plasma caliver

storm jungle
#

has to be an incinerator

#

you can see the tiny flamethrower tip thingy

cerulean wagon
#

cavalier has one as well

#

its prob just a cavalier

#

and the cans are hidden behind the knee

barren tapir
#

I thought the same, but the handguard is different, it is more an incinerator one

#

The muzzle is also more like an incinerator

vast frigate
#

Hm

barren tapir
#

But the incinerator don't have the three dots on the side too

vast frigate
#

Lemme inspecc

#

Caliver

#

Regardless of what you see different

prisma lark
#

definitely caliver imho

barren tapir
#

The blue thing on tops that now i cannot recall their name is more an incinerator one

vast frigate
#

Caliver class plasma weapons are the only ones with igniters on the barrel

#

Thats what the larger knight weapons are based on

cerulean wagon
#

it matches up entirely with the cav bar the pipes

#

which are prob just artistic license

vast frigate
#

Most plasma has artistic license

#

Since every skitarii may edit their weapons

cerulean wagon

thats what i just said basically

storm jungle

in short

The Death Spectres recruit new members of the Chapter by scouring worlds for the best possible female candidates. They are taken to their homeworld of Occludus and once there breed future Aspirants.[9a]

No, they just bring in new "colonist" to let the normal human population grow and from that take the best... It is more like cattle management i think

Yeah thats even more fucked i think

storm jungle

god I wish Boreale was here

i would love to have him read and approve of this

rotund siren

like, if one chapter shows it, its not weird for the rest to not have it either

vast frigate
barren tapir
#

But find funny that it say that they scour the stars for the best female candidates... To me that can be interpreted as the female being the new members

storm jungle
#

lmao

#

the entire excerpt is hilarious tbh

#

Its in an actual book btw

#

a Flayed One attacked a village and this girl and her brother had to fght it off, the Death Spectres then came in and took her to be breed.

#

they bluntly say it to her face too

visual pumice
#

cause they ran from a flayed one?

storm jungle
#

No because they killed it i think?

vast frigate
#

Wait

#

WAIT

visual pumice
#

oh right

#

killing it i can kinda get

but just bolting from it isn't that impressive

This means that IF the death spectres ever face a near chapter annihilation.
They will literally all be brothers.

I think i just like dark humor too much

vast frigate

how is this bad for warhammer

This is literally how fucked up the universe is

not because its fucked up, but because people forget this shit happened on our planet as well

final spruce
#

Still happens in some countries

vast frigate
#

It was the colonizers that de-skinned Native heads
it was the europeans that burned people for being witches
It was the church that sanctioned 24/7 torture
It was china that did Lead-pouring

#

This isnt anything shocking, its the nature of intelligent beings

vast frigate
#

YES

#

marine cuddles pls

barren tapir
#

So, they take the best men to make them SM and the best women to bring them to their planet?

final spruce

...

storm jungle

I think so?

it makes the most sense

#

meanwhile me

#

"Oh no what will I ever do"

barren tapir
#

Yeah, the women thing could be seen as source consolidation since it seems they don't have the number to keep all that space in check

And that flayed ones attacks aren't exactly rare

I found The Excerpt about The Thing 🥚

#

Alundra groaned, her wounds, shallow though they were, burning like a furnace in her side. She looked up, realising that she was staring at melanoid boots that crunched on the dirt as they turned.

She cast her eyes skywards, squinting in the sun, not one but two unmistakable silhouettes above her. ‘No,’ Alundra cried out, trying to throw herself over Husim as armoured fingers pulled her roughly back to her feet.

‘Superficial wounds,’ rumbled a red-helmed Death Spectre, yanking her arm up to examine the dark stain spread across her tunic. ‘Scan her, Quintus.’

‘At once, Sergeant Vilda.’

#

‘She is surprisingly well-nourished, sir. No known maladies or infections,’ the Death Spectre called Quintus reported, looking up from the augury. ‘Safely within selection parameters.’ Her captor nodded. ‘Excellent. She will be taken with the others.’ Alundra fought against Vilda’s grip. ‘What about my brother? You need to help him.’

The Death Spectre released her, and she tumbled back into the dirt, instinctively reaching out to touch Husim. He was so still. Quintus didn’t even check his scanner. ‘Subject rejected,’ he intoned. ‘Injuries fatal.’

‘No,’ Alundra yelled, springing back to her feet and pounding her fists against the Space Marine’s chest, no longer caring if such actions were tantamount to a death sentence. ‘You’ve got to do something. He can’t die.’

The red-helmeted sergeant grabbed her arm once again, but this time the fingers bit deeper, bruising muscle, making her cry out.‘And spirited too,’ he commented, sounding what, amused? She wanted to kill both of them. From the passage behind them, a voice rumbled out, agreeing with the sentiment.

Alundra twisted to see her saviour marching down the restricted space of the corridor, his pauldrons scraping against the narrow walls. As he stepped out into the sun, Alundra couldn’t help but stare.

#

The Space Marine had lost his helm in the battle, revealing a stark visage, almost completely devoid of pigment. The skin was corpse white, with closely cropped hair the colour of snow and eyes as red as the blood that flowed freely from a fresh wound across his pale cheek. ‘She took on a Flayed one single-handedly,’ he reported, almost sounding proud.

‘Strength of will as well as body. Unusual for a human.’

‘Then we have chosen well, Karnos,’ Vilda replied, shoving Alundra towards the albino. ‘Prime stock. Take her to the transport.’

‘Wait,’ Alundra pleaded, as Karnos clutched her arms tightly.

‘I’ll go with you, as long as you take my brother too.’

Vilda reached forwards, grabbing her cheeks between thumb and forefinger. ‘Listen to me, girl,’ the Death Spectre snarled. ‘If it were up to me you would all burn. Too many of my brothers have been lost rescuing you from these unholy aberrations.’
Alundra didn’t struggle as Karnos plunked her from her feet.

Instead she stared into the glazing eyes of her brother as he lay in the rampaging necrons’ path, bleeding out in the baking sun.
