Angron has a GREAT reason

#

but also the Emperor was an actual braindead idiot

latent wigeon
#

yeah but pooooorly written

storm jungle
#

"No son im not gonna save your friends"

#

"Why"

#

"The script"

latent wigeon
#

"-just no"

rose thorn
#

Isn’t it weird that The emperors made basically 2 primarchs for everything

latent wigeon
#

but yeah world eaters books suck

#

I like them but theyre just bad

rose thorn
#

Like alpha legion and raven guard

#

Word eaters and space wolves

latent wigeon
#

there could have been a better backstory but it turned out meh

molten token
#

Aight time for an epic lore bombshell

storm jungle
#

ruh roh

molten token
#

Alphalegion are tzeench

latent wigeon
#

yes

#

alpharius is loyalist but dont tell that to them

molten token
#

Thousands sons are the sorceree tzeench part, alphalegion are scheme tzeench part. Them not knowing that themselves is 100% in-character

storm jungle
#

Eh

#

All alpha legionaries are traitors

#

so it doesnt make much difference

latent wigeon
#

blood ravens are the real thousand sons OmegaGuardsmanHype

rose thorn
#

Emperors children are part eldar

molten token
#

I never got why they went with that angle. Like damn bro they had like 3 librarians we know of

latent wigeon
#

pursuit of knowledge

molten token
#

Ok fair i guess

latent wigeon
#

similar color to pre heresy thousand sons too

#

raven also being a mythological tie to wizards

#

would actually be dope if this was cannon

molten token
#

Did anyone else here get extremely confused by the entire blood raven corruption plot

#

So there was ulkair

latent wigeon
#

yes

molten token
#

And he talked to the chapter master on the space hulk

#

But at the same time

#

A khorne demon posessed the apothecary

#

And was the messenger of that other demon

latent wigeon
#

uh

#

yes

storm jungle
#

also

#

somehow

#

nobody noticed the librarian being corrupt

#

lmao

molten token
#

Ikr

#

I'd go on the why tf is he worshipping khorne angle but if has been done a trillion times

latent wigeon
#

nowhere does it say all marines have high iq

molten token
#

Bro i remember the 40k lore sub taking every faction to its absolute extreme opness and coming up with legit bs like apparently space marines are extremely well read and would be genius politicians if one was just dumped on the white house

latent wigeon
#

who fed you that bs

rose thorn
#

So what exactly makes all the eldar subfactions unqiue?

latent wigeon
#

like an ultramarine yeah

rose thorn
#

Craft worlds worse

molten token
latent wigeon
#

world eater most definitely not

molten token
rose thorn
#

Yeah

molten token
#

Or dark eldae/exodites

rose thorn
#

CW

#

I barley know anytning But it seems to be just different forms of ‘no sex’

molten token
# rose thorn Yeah

Honestly not much. They havent been fleshed out at all imo. Really they just have different levels of superstition and trust in psykers and farseers

cerulean wagon
#

wdym no sex? eldar can have sex

#

they just struggle to have kids

atomic pelican
#

Biel tan is especially militant, with a large amount of aspect warriors.

Alaitoc is especially traditonalist, producing alot of outcasts due to this.

Iyanden suffered alot of losses, and thus use Ghost warriors more

Saim Hann is especially rsdical with their own tribal formations

Ulthwe is especially psychically gifted, focusing on their seers. They also keep their guardians better trainrd

rose thorn
#

I mean not feeding Slaanesh, with the paths and such

atomic pelican
#

This is a small summary

molten token
#

Eldar have sex while wearing wrinkled old men masks to feel absolutely no pleasure from the experience

storm jungle
#

Wha-

storm jungle
#

Also for the love of god

molten token
#

Offical lore trust me bro

storm jungle
#

Eldar can have any sort of sex, as long as it isnt hedonistic its fine lmao

#

people legit think the moment two eldar kiss it will summon a demon invasion or something

latent wigeon
#

yeeeees

#

no touching before marriage

#

else daemon

rose thorn
#

I know it won’t lmao, I just don’t know anytning about eldar besides corsairs

#

Because space pirates are my favorite anytning sci-fi

latent wigeon
#

so...

#

you know about red corsairs

rose thorn
#

Yes

latent wigeon
#

wtf

rose thorn
#

Of course I do

latent wigeon
#

dies of Chaos

rose thorn
#

OH

latent wigeon
molten token
# latent wigeon no touching before marriage

I love imagining eldar as the faction who 100% embraced the ideology of stupidass sigma grindset facebook posts

"Sleep 8 hours a day"
"Learn a skill for 1000 years"
"No sex to disturb the grind"

rose thorn
#

And the eldar corsiars

latent wigeon
#

you failed your Imperium compliancd test

rose thorn
#

Which have their own killteam FUCK YEAHHHhhh

#

I’m a chaos Daemon fan

latent wigeon
#

now 849273 guardsmen instantly died

rose thorn
#

Good

storm jungle
rose thorn
#

FUCK YEAHHHHHHH

latent wigeon
#

they watch morbius in the mean time

storm jungle
#

Im gonna copy paste it to you in the DMs in a bit, doing studies 💀

rose thorn
#

I’ve been planning to just kitbash all my eldar into corsairs

storm jungle
#

Yeah thats totally do-able

rose thorn
#

I have the guardians

cerulean wagon
#

Corsairs also have their own section of lore in W&G

storm jungle
#

^

cerulean wagon
#

as their own faction seperate from CWE

#

its pretty pog

atomic pelican
#

GW on their way to make a KT unit all but unusable in 40k

#

Corsairs are so comically restricted in 40k

#

Like the actual unit

cerulean wagon
atomic pelican
#

Theyre actually better for Drukhari than they are for CWs

cerulean wagon
#

guard

atomic pelican
#

Vet guardsmen?

#

Ahh

cerulean wagon
#

veteran squads got nothin lul

atomic pelican
#

Weird. Thats like the only team that cant?

#

Kommandos got new rules iirc

cerulean wagon
#

its made even worse by vet squads now just being bad

#

because they'll set you back 120~ points

atomic pelican
#

Ripp

cerulean wagon
#

when 2 fully kitted standard squads are 60 each

rose thorn
atomic pelican
#

Yeah Guard codex is getting rlly weird

#

Because its on faq crutches and weird ass ancient interactions/ppm

cerulean wagon
#

watch vottan get a release first and IG get more band aid patches

atomic pelican
# rose thorn Wiat what

Corsairs dont count as troops for filling a detachment and they arent rlly good for their points

#

They are only rlly good for drukhari because

#

You can get runes of fortune

#

And a psyker

atomic pelican
#

Out of them

#

They only count as filling a detachment in ONE CIRCUMSTANCE

#

Which is:

#

You have Yriel as your warlord

cerulean wagon
molten token
# latent wigeon they watch morbius in the mean time

When the people forget to watch morbius they are no longer human and become something less than beasts. They have no place in the bosom of humanity nor in the heart of the Emperor. Let them die and be forgotten.
-quoting from the Prime Edicts of the Holy Synod of the Adeptus Morbiurum

rose thorn
#

NOOOO

#

YNARII YOU BASTARDS

atomic pelican
#

Theyre pretty ok with Drukhari since they can embark in a raider

#

And the psyker

rose thorn
#

Are they at least good at holding objectives

atomic pelican
#

I dont think they get obsec so no

latent wigeon
#

gotta watch my daily morb dose

atomic pelican
#

This is talking abt the actual like corsair unit btw

#

You can always just run CW as corsairs

#

As fluff

rose thorn
#

Yeee I know

#

Fluff is free

#

#

This is how I make sure all my dnd characters aren’t just druids number 582

cerulean wagon
#

also like

#

whether or not a unit is great doesn't matter outside of competetive play

atomic pelican
#

Well, I would usually agree

#

And you are right

#

But corsairs are

#

REALLLLLLY bad

#

If you get what I mean

rose thorn
#

How many points are they?

#

The KT as a whole in 40k

atomic pelican
#

Like 100 for the troop variant, 120 for the elite? I think

rose thorn
#

WHAT THE FUCK

atomic pelican
#

For a unit of 10

#

5 being 50 and 60 respectively

rose thorn
#

For a trash unit?

atomic pelican
#

They cost the same as dire avengers for a comparison point

#

Who are amazing

rose thorn
#

Bruh

atomic pelican
#

And for their troop variant, guardians are cheaper and better

#

And get a CW trait

rose thorn
#

I’d probably just run the corsairs as like character units, like the pyker as a farseer and suck

atomic pelican
#

Yeee

#

The psyker corsair makes a good conversion piece

molten token
#

Is a pure morbius army still viable for competitive play

atomic pelican
#

I think eventually Corsairs might get a expansion and become sort of like Harlequins now

#

A small army where they can be ran alongside CWs/Drukhari and retain their traits

Nah bro im running a morbillion sons army

#

atomic pelican
# rose thorn How so?

Harlequins have a rule called Travelling Players where they can be included in a CW or Drukhari army and both the harles and other army retain all their abilities

storm jungle
#

Corsairs also were the O.G ynnari in the case that they could literally use half the vehicles in the eldar model range

#

even harlequins and whatnot

molten token
#

Morblocks best eldar unit

atomic pelican
#

Honestly playing Ynnari is probably a good way to simulate corsairs

storm jungle
#

Yeee

atomic pelican
#

Sadly the Drukhari part of the Ynnari get kind of gimped

#

Since no Power from pain but they still play good

rose thorn
#

Gonna be honest I have no clue how any eldar ynits even work lmao

atomic pelican
#

Very fragile very fast very killy in general

#

The subfaction just sets the scale

#

Being like

#

CWE-Harlequins-Drukharu

#

With CW being more durable and less fast/killy (but still those things)

#

And Drukhari being the fastest and most lethal, but the most fragile

#

Harlequins are kind of interesting sknce they dont fit the scale too great

#

Theyre incredibly elite so theyre kind of good at it all, but sort of take the aeldari general stuff to the next level

#

They are ESPECIALLY fast, ESPECIALLY killy, and fragile, albeit less so

#

Just less models

#

Harles def more melee focused tho

rose thorn
#

OoOoooo

#

The eldar seem kinda similar to Slaanesh actually

#

Weird

#

Like game play wise

atomic pelican
#

Yeah theyre both fast armies

#

Slaanesh basically no shooting tho in terms of daemons

rose thorn
#

True

#

But really fun pyker abilities

atomic pelican
#

Yeee

#

Should go to mention that CW and Harles both have strong psykers

#

CW probably being a bit better but shadowseers slap too

rose thorn
#

Oh yeah I heard shadow seers are cool

atomic pelican
#

Esp since Eldritch Storm can now giganuke castles

#

With Farseers

final spruce
#

They can but Guy Haley has been very clear on the fact that he'll never write chaos corrupted Tau as their main writer because its a subject he doesnt want to do.

rose thorn
#

I just realized we can’t actually know what the emperor fully looks like, he’s never fully described and when he is it’s always Inconsistent with the only repeating fact is that he glows a golden light. And all the painting we have of him are made by a human and we know how horrifically bias they are. Plus the emperor just has the ability to change how people see him so if he does pose he will probably just make the artists see the best possible human or some shit.

#

Like in the first heretic he’s describe as a wrinkled cold elderly man and a heavenly young what ever the fuck.

storm jungle
#

He's fully described actually

rose thorn
#

Oh fr?

storm jungle
#

its just that his "current form" is his preferred one

#

Yeee

#

he can basically like

#

morph into whoever he wants

rose thorn
#

Oh

Okay yeah that would explain alot

storm jungle
#

1 sec, excerpt time

rose thorn
#

also Hiiii Dilara!

storm jungle
#

👋

#

also here

#

The reflection changes. For an instant, a figure of iron and blades with coal-furnace eyes is looking back at Him from a throne of chrome. Then it is gone, and the reflection is a blur of images falling one atop another: a golden warrior standing with drawn sword before the gates of a towering fortress, a figure before the mouth of a mountain cave, a boy with a stick and fear in his eyes, a Queen with a spear atop a cliff, an eagle with ten wings beating against a thunder-threaded sky – on and on, images tumbling over each other like the faces of cards tossed through the air.

‘Is there any truth in you?’ asks the voice that comes from the dark.

The images vanish and the darkness hangs before Him. It falls into the abyss beneath like a cascade of obsidian sand.

‘At the root of your lies, is there any truth, father?’

The darkness becomes a forest, dark trunks reaching to an untouchable sky, roots crawling out and down into the abyss beneath. The man on the chair is sitting on the snow-covered ground, a fire burning before Him. A shadow moves out of the dark between the trees. It is huge, sable-furred and silver-eyed. It drags its shadow with it as it comes forwards. It pauses on the edge of the light.

‘You claim to be a man,’ says the wolf, ‘but that is a lie revealed to any that can see you here.'

#

For context this is Big E meeting with Horus in the warp

#

its during the Siege

rose thorn
#

Hehehe that quote at the end

storm jungle
#

🙏

rose thorn
#

I like what that guy says at the end of the last church where he realizes that the emperor isn’t human and can’t possible understand what it means to be human

storm jungle
#

Yeeee pretty much

#

but i hope that answers your question tho

rose thorn
#

Yeah it does

#

I always love it when they stab the emperor to reveal his flaws

#

He could have hand killed any of his sons except Horus, the only one he showed any actual emotion to besides treated as a tool

#

It’s the perfectly ironic

shadow plover
#

Y'know we might one day get an Emperor miniature and I dread the day. This is mostly speculation and some think it confirmed because the Horus Heresy rulebook has a mention of him as a unit/model. At least I will have to see less of the godawful 3rd party models after it if something

storm jungle
#

tbh i think if Big E was gonna get a mini he'd have long ago

rose thorn
storm jungle
#

on the other hand that would make a shit ton of money

#

so you know

shadow plover
#

well all the primarchs had to be out first

rose thorn
#

Okay if it was like, a diorama model like those giant space marines

shadow plover
#

but now they all are

latent wigeon
storm jungle
#

I WISH

tulip tundra

#

that'd be nice actually

#

but I meant mostly the 30k mini

latent wigeon
tulip tundra
rose thorn
shadow plover
#

What? Meant that now all of the primarchs minis are out

rose thorn
#

‘Real life emperors throne’ and its like a yellow bean bag chair

I meant the uhhh those giant space marine models

#

ah, yeah.

‘The holy golden throne’

by the emperor

#

never would I have thought i would have laid my eyes upon such solemn beauty

rose thorn
#

The sheer power echos from the holy golden color

#

I had a dream gw announced new lore that all the custodies just began dying at random and like removed all their named characters

#

And gutted their codex

#

Basically squated the custodies

storm jungle
#

LOL

#

Custodeez fans already mald about anything

#

so i cant imagine that reaction

rose thorn
#

Lmao I would fucking die

storm jungle
#

my guys still cant let that World Eater punch go

#

or Valerian being semi-unsure to fight Moloc

rose thorn
#

Wait what?

#

Or when Argel Tal kicked in a Custodes shit

storm jungle
#

okay so kinda long

#

but bear with me

rose thorn
#

Yeah

We’re wasting time. Diocletian was on the edge of unmannerly cursing when another hololith appeared at the table. This one wore damaged armour plating, spinning a spear in gloved hands. Weapons and talons slashed into view at the edges of the holo’s range, but the warrior weaved aside from every blow he didn’t block. Bladed replies lashed back, killing the wielders of those weapons. The warrior didn’t break stride. He was always moving. ‘Reload!’ the holo called out, laden with distortion.

He drove his spear into the ground by his feet and immediately pulled his meridian swords, turning and whirling into another phase of his arcane battle- dance. ‘Compliance.’ A servitor’s voice, toneless and obedient. The warrior moved away from the spear, it vanished out of the holo’s range. The swords rose and fell, twisted and parried, thrust and hacked. Blood rained past him in flickering sprays. Endlessly came the crash of energy fields ramming against ceramite, warping the reinforced metal, mangling it, shattering it. The figure of a colourless Space Marine staggered into the holo’s view, tumbling

#

to the ground with a blade through his spine. The warrior severed the falling legionary’s head from his shoulders without looking, already turning to meet another foe. ‘Reloaded,’ came the augmitted, mechanical voice again. The warrior sheathed both blades in a smooth motion, weaved aside from a swinging flail, which missed him by a metre, and reached upwards.

He caught the spear in the air, bringing it down in another parry. He disengaged with a roar of effort, throwing his unseen opponent back. The guardian spear banged three times, spitting three bolts in succession, only to spin with another frenzied howl of abused energy fields as the blade punched through another legionary’s chestplate.

#

The spear tore viscera and shards of armour free in a wrenching burst as he yanked the blade back, one-handed. His other fist discharged a laser-spit of digital weaponry from his clenched knuckles, lascutting through the faceplate of a charging, crested Legion officer. Another fighter joined him in the whirling dance. A cloaked female wielding a circuit-lit zweihander, guarding his back one moment, then guarded in kind a moment later. They couldn’t have looked more unalike – fighting with utterly different styles, at different speeds; male and female, gold and black; towering genhanced warrior in auramite and regal huntress in armour that honoured the most ancient eras of warfare. Yet they moved in savage harmony, never coming close to harming one another. They fought in the spaces created by each other’s fighting styles.

#

She hacked overhead when the long spear whirled aside, killing the enemy that fought to slip within his guard. He thrust over her shoulder, slaughtering the foes that sought to move behind her. Zephon’s pale eyes narrowed, his concentration absolute, taking in the ballet of violence unfolding before him. He had seen the warriors of the Ten Thousand fight before, albeit only in grainy pict footage.

He had heard the countless unpoetic comparisons describing their uniqueness as the perfect exemplar of a process that became diluted and rushed to mass-produce the Legiones Astartes. Yet he had never seen them in battle against Space Marines. This warrior reaved through them – reaved through Zephon’s cousins from the rebellious Legions – cutting them down, butchering them the way Zephon himself had massacred his way across human and alien battlefields. How easy, all of a sudden, to see how Constantin Valdor, the Captain-General of the Custodian Guard, was considered an equal of the primarchs themselves in matters of blade-work, when any Custodian could be as skilled as this. Had the Emperor foreseen this?

His thoughts curdled, growing gravid with treason. Is this what they were made for? This annihilation? This slaughter of legionaries? ‘We’re here, Dio,’ came the Custodian’s words between panted breaths.

rose thorn
#

AHAHAHAH

#

That’s hilarious

#

I have such mixed feeing towards custodies

On the plus side they actually have character

On the negative side when ever the imperium is losing to anytning they can just say ‘and the custodies arrive’

#

But that’s all the space marine factions

storm jungle
#

Tbh custodes are mostly fine

#

its the fans that tend to be the elitist jerks lol

rose thorn
#

Wouldnt Custodes have the same problems as grey knights?

storm jungle
#

Kinda?

#

Custodes get more leeway since they are the Emperor's BFFs

rose thorn
#

Fair enough

#

Oh yeah how did octarius go? I heard alot of shit about the lore

storm jungle
#

Nids won the war

rose thorn
#

WOOOOO

#

That’s how you should fix any shit lore

#

and the tryanids won

rose thorn
#

Wow they really just brute force every faction into the lore Huh

storm jungle
#

YEP

rose thorn
#

All I remember is a tryanid offing an ork warboss and that Khrone daemons were there for like 12 hours which causes a metric shitload of cult uprisings

#

To be fair the cults and cult Marines will use any excuse to uprise upon any sign of anytning g

storm jungle
#

Pretty much

rose thorn
#

I remember that when fulgrim arrived to see rylanor that caused a surge or Slaanesh cults, cult marines, and EC to fuck shit up for days

#

It was like some serious damage until they got bored and went back to petty raids, sex, drugs, and rock and roll

#

Even if fulgrim got fucking bodied

cunning wigeon
#

I know I'm late to the party but god I hate it when people try to connect AoS to 40k and vice versa, they're clearly to completely independent universes to the point where calling connections a stretch is generous.

#

I know Warhammer fans are Warhammer fans but why they can't leave the two settings alone I will never understand

storm jungle
#

SAME

rose thorn
#

It’s funny when they explain proof wise all they say is ‘the warp’

cunning wigeon
#

It's especially frustrating as it comes across as some 40k fanboy who reads one AoS lore excerpt and is like ah yes this sounds like a marine

rose thorn
#

People tried to say the silver knight of Slaanesh, who is only mentioned in the chaos Daemon 40K codex, was some fucking AOS character

#

Even though all proof points grey knight

cunning wigeon
#

It's like they look for any description of a chunky fella and say ah yes that must be a marine

#

No way it could be anything else

rose thorn
#

I said thsi a few days ago but one fantasy character shared the name of an important eldar

#

So I suggested what if they just started naming minor AOS characters after important 40k characters

#

‘Yes this is my favorite Gloomspite git, Konrad Curze’

#

‘My horse breeder Gulliman’

cunning wigeon
rose thorn
#

I heard a theory that AOS exists on a plant in the 40K warp

cunning wigeon
rose thorn
#

And that sigmar was the soul of teh emperor

rose thorn
cunning wigeon
rose thorn
#

Yeah

cunning wigeon
#

Sigmar is a fleshed out character with realistic flaws and Ideals even as a god, the emperor wishes he could be more like that

rose thorn
#

The emperor is a metaphor to me, being so perfect of a human you can’t understand what it means to be human

#

Actually most of 40K is irony

cunning wigeon
#

As much as Sigmar embodies a god of war, he is still a flawed human, a reasonably barbaric one at that. He understands violence and how to do battle but struggles with strategy and how to properly manage large forces

#

There's a reason he can't just shit stomp Archeon

rose thorn
#

Gonna be honest idk AOS lore

cunning wigeon
#

Ah gotcha no worries then

rose thorn
#

Except chaos and gloomspite gits

#

And chaos daemons is basically 2 armies at the price of one

cunning wigeon
#

Sigmar is a "God of War" but seems to really struggle with the cunning part of strategy

rose thorn
#

Oh I thought he was the god of order

cunning wigeon
#

Sees most fights as winnable through prowess and skill when those his forces are against very rarely fight honourably

cunning wigeon
rose thorn
#

Oh and death, I know like the basics of death

cunning wigeon
#

Essentially the bros that started civilisation again, mankind, elfkind, dwarfkind and the undead working hand in hand to make a living in the mortal realms

cunning wigeon
#

So whilst they grow in power they also lose why they fight

rose thorn
#

Ohhh

#

How is chaos treated in AOS anyway?

cunning wigeon
#

Fairly

#

They got some wins when it seems they should

#

And they're powerful enough to beat the heavy hitters

rose thorn
#

Ooooo

cunning wigeon
#

Nagash the God of Death got laid low by Archeon

#

And Archeon tricked Sigmar into losing his hammer

rose thorn
#

And he kinda just gave up

cunning wigeon
#

Who Nagash?

rose thorn
#

Yeah

latent wigeon
#

only cause grimgor got a daemon axe tho

cunning wigeon
# rose thorn Yeah

Not sure what experiments you mean but he created the Bonereapers successfully

#

But it took Katakros to perfect them

rose thorn
#

The night haunts and bone reapers and uhhh

cunning wigeon
#

Give them a proper military structure etc

cunning wigeon
rose thorn
#

Yeah

cunning wigeon
#

Of them the Bonereapers are most effective

#

Only army to get a foothold in the home of chaos and Archeon

#

Took Archeon to show up to kick them out, and seeing how powerful he is that means alot

cunning wigeon
latent wigeon
#

yees

cunning wigeon
#

Afraid I'm fairly certain it's non canon my friend

rose thorn
#

Oh yeah so what exactly are beastmen?

latent wigeon
#

retconned i forgor Guarded

cunning wigeon
#

But hey it's based lore

rose thorn
#

They are cool but they don’t follow the chaos gods, but the hunting shit is super cool

#

But are under chaos

cunning wigeon
#

It's how you end up with Tzangor/Slangor/Khornegor etc

#

But they don't worship them as those god's usually, but the primal aspects of them

#

Khorne as their own primal bloodlust

rose thorn
#

OH MY GOD I NEVER REALIZED THE CULT GORS ARE JUST THE HODS NAME THEN GOR

cunning wigeon
#

Slaanesh as they enjoy the excess of living as animal

#

And tzeentch because mutation

latent wigeon
#

rituals

cunning wigeon
#

Nurgle for being stinky beast people

rose thorn
#

I know in 40K beastmen join tzeetch because they want to be smart

cunning wigeon
#

I remembered, it's because they worship the fact that he mutated them

#

They're the reason beastmen exist

#

But you're right, they don't really care about the chaos gods, more so the elements they represent

#

They just despoil civilization because they revel in being feral/they're envious of the lives they could have had

rose thorn
#

Ohhh

#

Neat

cunning wigeon
#

Yeah some are just pissed that they were born beastmen

#

AoS lore is usually straight to the point with very little bloat which is nice

molten token
#

beastmen were retconned into being generic never-do-wells who just hate humanity and civillization because they present order instead of chaos, instead of having psychotic envy, which i never liked

cunning wigeon
#

Oh really? Wasn't aware of that

molten token
#

yeah it sucks but eh what can u do

#

just another W for headcanoners

rose thorn
#

There’s something admirable about wnating it to destroy everything for no reason besides ‘fuck everything’

storm jungle
#

So as I guessed

#

literally half the video is filler

#

lmao

#

Is the other half accurate ?

storm jungle
#

Eh kinda?

#

Its kind of obvious he was most likely asked to do this as like an "intro" video i think

#

I really the design of the floaty kind of possessed, like what hsi name and the red angel

#

Lmao GW broke Horus heresy card game meta and made it unplayable so they had to make a new card game of Warpforge

#

I forgot combat cards existed

Isn't that a good thing?

#

No one should remember combat cards.

rose thorn
#

Yes Agreeed

I think I have a new favorite chapter in the steel confessors though kinda eh on their paint scheme

plush mason
#

are melta bombs mini nukes?

storm jungle
#

Nah

#

just giant heat-based explosives

#

as the name implies they melt-a-bitch

barren tapir
#

They are closer to termite charges

#

But with explosion instead of just melting

plush mason
#

hm so setting one off on a plasma generator would not end well for anyone i bet lol

#

i asked cause those damn cultist from the exeior or whatever assassin video popped into my head just now and i still dont know if their plan warrented one of those being sent after them lol

scenic bolt
#

its explosives next to explosives so likely not

plush mason
#

cause like one melta bomb in a genatorium doesnt seem like it would do much more than knock out power

barren tapir
#

Yes, that is what it would do, melta bomb are not 360 explosions, it is focused one and it is just as support, they are mostly a termite thing, burning so hot that they eat the thing they are attached to

plush mason
#

so not a very big threat like i thought

umbral coral
#

I didnt think orkimedes was real

#

Until now

plush mason
#

who

umbral coral
#

Okay so in history some greek mathematics dude was named archimedes

#

But in 40k there is a genius ork

#

Named Orkimedes

plush mason
#

i know who archimedes was lol

#

the idea of orkimedes is..worrying

vapid tiger
#

I think uh

#

STRANGE AS IT IS TO ADMIT THIS

#

Eternal Crusade has a good portrayal of meltabombs

#

You can't throw them very far and basically have to attach them to things up close, and the explosion they produce, while it will kill most things in the vicinity, is easy to avoid

#

They are not frag grenades

#

Too bad the game is dead and bad

plush mason
#

hm im not seeing the part about GR

#

or maybe im just to sleepy to read it right lol

storm jungle
#

lmao

#

its alright

plush mason
#

tbch its for the best as i was gona show it to a friend of mine that is a massive doom fan and is starting to get into warhammer. and it might make him like GR more

plush mason
#

so how do the alpha legion make themselves look like members of the other legions/chapters?

#

like is it tech or something else?

rigid cloak
plush mason
#

lol

rigid cloak
#

Every alpha legion is basically like Gary Oldman

#

Alpharius is Gary Oldman. It’s cannon now

sacred mauve
#

Primaris marines are cancer /fin

storm jungle
#

they dont really have that holographic thing most artwork shows them using

shadow plover
#

or they just manufacture/steal the armour of other legions

#

was it Unremembered Empire or a book before it where the Alpha Legionaries tried to attack Guilliman in his office or something in Ultramarine armours

karmic gulch
#

Would the other primarchs react similarly to modern imperium?

#

Like being completely disappointed by what their father's glorious empire has turned into

shadow plover
#

most likely even though not all thought it that glorious even in the first place

storm jungle
#

Yeah pretty much none of the loyalist primarchs would react well to the current Imperium

pseudo depot
#

Who would have the most negative reaction?

storm jungle
#

Probably Lion and Russ

#

the others would have a more "collected" but more subdued reaction considering the pragmatism of Primarchs like the Khan and Vulkan

barren tapir
#

Dorn would go on a tantrum on all the churches on terra, then he would order to demolish them all for defence motives... Even though he was fully aware of the religious path the imperium was taking before and after the siege of terra

#

TBF russ wouldn't care much about it

#

He would care more about the inquisition BS

#

The lion, well, he is the one capable to do something nasty...

karmic gulch
#

Russ would probably try to just party the heck out on Fenris

#

But be dragged into politics

#

Due to some Inquisitor getting on his nerve

storm jungle
#

Russ would hate the entirety of the Imperium and be on a warpath

#

hes a dumbass but still has a massive anti-authority stance

vapid tiger
#

What if we took all the loyalist primarchs and just pushed them somewhere else

storm jungle
#

They are all trash so

#

🗑️

vapid tiger
#

let's discuss these fellers

#

who is the top here

storm jungle
#

Gonna say Argel

#

Kharn is more of a power bottom to me

vapid tiger
#

Tru

#

i like how argel's death is a major contributing factor to kharn going completely insane

#

since their uh

friendship

held him together a good deal

#

Kharn going around teamkilling with a flamer on skallathrax screaming "MY BOYFRIEND IS DEAD"

pretty much

#

So if the unforgiven have 19 official second founding chapters (and the da themselves)

#

Does that mean there are in total 1900 death wing

#

And 1900 raven wing

karmic gulch
#

There are more that either aren't publicly acknowledged or don't want to be known as DA successors

storm jungle
#

@slow prawn

vapid tiger
#

Or just

#

Aren't listed

#

Because official successor chapters are far from the only successor chapters of any given first founding chapter

#

Unless explicitly stated otherwise like the space wolves pre-primaris

#

And technically the salamanders pre-primaris though that's fuzzy

slow prawn
#

Dark Angels lore here?

#

Well, to be honest I had no idea there that many DA second founding Chapters

#

Just the Angels of Redemption, Vengeance, Absolution, possible Vigilance, and finally the Lions Sable

slow prawn
#

Ah, well not all of them are Second Founding

#

Second Founding is the one where Chapters are established, immediately after the Heresy

#

The ones after, I’ll bet the Dark Angels and their successors chipped in to help establish them, especially their first and second companies

rose thorn
vapid tiger
#

Star phantoms are also very codex compliant and seem to have a mutual dislike of the dark angels

#

As if they left the unforgiven

#

Basically the DA equivalent of how the mortifactors hate ultramarines

umbral coral
vapid tiger
#

Right

umbral coral
#

Which leaves a absolute fuckton

#

Of DA

vapid tiger
#

So there would be more than 1900 of each but only those in the actual da are called deathwing and ravenwing

vapid tiger
umbral coral
#

They wouldnt have a last wall protocol

#

They would have the last fortress

#

God damn

distant fable
#

Now let’s see blood angels successor chapters

rose thorn
#

why do people not liek lorgar and angron to a lesser extent

#

Angron is legit like, sympathetic man, he only spent his entire life suffering and was made into a being of only anger. and when he finally was able to rebel and finally have revenge against a world that saw him nothing but a hound, it was stolen from him from a tyrant that treated him as nothing but a tool

#

lorgar ai can see why people cant like him, but also its 100% the emperors fault

hushed kayak
#

But the reason why people hate him is because what he did to his legion

#

he used the butcher nails on his legion knowing what it’ll do to them, he still hates them even after the nails implanted. Then betrays the emperor because of what was stolen from him

#

Lorgar was actually innocent until fucking erebus came in

rose thorn
#

yeah, but he saw his legion as a final cruel joke to his life, he rose a band of rebels and slaves who experienced unimaginable pains, and then he was given a legion of lap dogs

#

as he watched his closest friends and allies die upon the hill

#

im nto excusing his murders, im saying that he has a damn good reason to hate them

#

and teach his legion suffeirng

hushed kayak
#

Angron represents humanity of the emperor

#

more like the emotion of it

#

so imagine how much his legion tried to go far to earn his love

#

The butcher nails literally defiles that sense

#

if you remembered, he wouldnt want to kill a person who doesn’t have a strength to fight

rose thorn
#

oh hi nameless

plush mason
#

the emperor's actions on angron's homeworld show he has very little if any humanity or compassion

hushed kayak
#

or ambitions. He regrets doing that

plush mason
#

does he?

rose thorn
#

the emperor showed compassion and kindess to mainly the loyalist legions

#

and EC

#

and also Horus

#

The emperor still viewed them as tools

#

manf uck the emperor

hushed kayak
#

again because he removed his emotions at the time

rose thorn
#

all my chaos homies hate the emperor

hushed kayak
#

Lorgar was a swell guy, until erebus came in

rose thorn
#

Lorgar was legit amazing, he conqured a shit laod of planets with out a spill of blood, theres a really good quote that shows like the sheer anger that he wanted

#

and was most angry that the emperor told him nothing

#

they hated tehm for doing exactly what they were told

#

and only reprimanded him when he was finished, and destroyed litreally the perfect city

hushed kayak
#

not quite, if you remembered he was a priest at his home world so religion was a big thing

rose thorn
#

yeah, he believed that there was a true golden god

#

and vouched for him and covereted the entire planet to his idea

#

then big E arrived

#

and that was literally his god

#

and gave him a legion

#

and bam he left and claimed planets in his holy name

hushed kayak
#

erebus planted that seed of doubt in him

#

how much do you know about erebus?

rose thorn
#

erebus didnt even suggest anything until the burning

#

also i know he was the fucking worse yatta yatta, but even then

#

i hate him too

hushed kayak
#

no no no

#

i mean how MUCH do you know him

#

there’s a sight you’re missing NOBU

rose thorn
#

I know he only suggested chaos because unlike the rest of his legion he only wanted power from it

hushed kayak
#

may i spoil on erebus then?

rose thorn
#

im listening to the last heretic

#

first

#

the first heretic

#

and i know he kills argal tall

#

Argal tal

hushed kayak
#

then you’ll hear WHY people hate him

rose thorn
#

I KNOW EVEN WORD BEARER FANS LIKE I HATE HIM

#

fuck i wanna tell you but i’ll let you listen to it lol, ping me when you reach that point

What is the difference between a Scion and a Kasrkin?

plush mason
#

technically nothing. the kasrkins are part of the scions. but the normal guard troops view the kasrkin differently due to their legacy

#

the thing about the scions is they are basically SOCOM for the IG iirc

viral vessel
flint dirge
#

I see, thanks

viral vessel
#

Due to that circumstance, they're viewed differently from the average Scion.

smoky mauve
viral vessel
#

Both are elite troops though in the end.

plush mason
#

yeah and like i said the scions are like SOCOM. every elite troop in the guard is part of them afaik

#

from the karskins to the grenadiers

storm jungle
#

Yeah what Nameless said

#

the confusion for them namely comes from GW renaming them after the mid 2000's copyright cases, its why they arent really called stormtroopers anymore lol

smoky mauve
#

I still miss the old gasmask stormtroopers. Those were some of my first minis I got and painted...

Old mask and red fatigues storm troopers my beloved

how the hell am I supposed to make time to paint a full GSC army, 3 Chaos Knights AND start a 30k Sons of Horus army

#

plus the other half of unpainted ideas

#

half a tyranid army is also waiting for paint

#

thousand points of ultramarines un painted

smoky mauve
#

Honestly, if you got the scratch, have someone do the troops as a comission and work on the big boys as like.... your own projects?

shadow plover
#

I want to paint them myself, my hobby is like 80% painting and 20% playing

smoky mauve
#

Ahhh mood

#

Yeah.

#

Honestly? Assembly line painting?

#

Assembly day. Then Priming Day, then Purple day, blue day. Color blocking, edge highlights,

#

It... is a little mind numbing. But. It gets it done

shadow plover
#

That's how I got 2k of ultras painted in 3 months

#

the pace slowed quite a bit after

smoky mauve
#

I got.... tired after doing it for just 20 Vanari Wardens and Sentinels for AoS

I'll retry assembly work once I get the Horus Heresy starter set now that I've got an airbrush

#

Kasrkin are pretty much on par

final spruce
#

Kasrkin are better than tempestus in the sense that they are gene moded or get small augments

#

Both fit the stormtrooper stereotype , just that Kasrkin are Cadian stormtroopers and Tempestus are, well Tempestus stormtroopers

#

What’s the coolest death in warhammer 40k lore? mine would have to be the two primarchs and the ork reactor

#

I think only one died but still

plush mason
#

you mean vulkan and the beast?

plush mason
#

just like how all of the US military's spec ops are technically under socom or well most of them are

storm jungle
#

regiments got their own elites

plush mason
#

k

storm jungle
#

the Scions got the Militarum Tempestus thingy

plush mason
#

the what?

#

like wtf regiment are these fool scions even from?

#

cause seems all my info about them is wrong lol

sullen cape
#

they are from theh schola progerium think of the IB on steriods

tepid tapir
plush mason
storm jungle
#

Scions are basically spec ops that get assigned to whatever their mission is

sullen cape
storm jungle
#

They can be with guard regiments

#

or just do their own assignments during a war

plush mason
#

ok

storm jungle
#

Basically the "army" you play if you want to be Navy SEALs lol

plush mason
#

cause i was just about to ask why they even exist if every regiment already has its own elites lol

storm jungle
#

Yeah its a bit complicated

#

they had to get re-branded

#

back then every regiment had a "elite stormtrooper" part

#

now Scions are their own thing

plush mason
storm jungle
#

It gets funnier because most I.G troops are jealous of them

#

mostly due to all the "special" training and equipment they get

#

which is fair lol

plush mason
#

jealous? the lore i read said they where all but disrepected due to that. "toy soldiers" was the nick name it said the cadian's gave them

storm jungle
#

Yeah pretty much that

#

in reality the irony is scions arent pompous or anything of the sort

#

they are drilled to hell and just do what they are told

#

so they basically couldn't care less

plush mason
#

again just like what i have heard about the SEALs lol

sullen cape
#

scions are used for missions that are deemed to diffcult or too important for normal reigments

#

they are the best soldiers in the schola-progrium which creates sob and crusaders; Assains and inqustiors

storm jungle
#

assassins are Assasinorum but otherwise ye

sullen cape
#

i would say the only notional regiment that is better then scions is the Last chancers.

storm jungle
#

Nah

#

they are just better because they are book characters

#

Scions arent infallible either

#

so it depends as with most 40k stuff

sullen cape
#

also the authour but they seems pretty good with there selections porcess

storm jungle
#

Orphans is free real estate 🙏

sullen cape
#

smh

barren tapir
#

Nah, last chancer are just special units, but to consider them on par of scions is wrong

#

Otherwise we could consider the Tanith first and only another scions equivalent

plush mason
#

i mean

#

they are Scottish they have to be elite just by default lol

plush mason
barren tapir
#

They are very close to what we are gonna play in DT

#

Convicts hand picked and sent to high danger missions

plush mason
#

i was wondering if there was a lore precedent for that and it seems there is

barren tapir
#

Penal legions regiments are a thing yes, as it is hand picked groups for special missions

#

I also used them as starting point for what we could get back in the days of theorycrafting

A thousand Gathalamorians in ashes and sackcloth pulled the sarcophagus on rollers made of broken columns. The coffin and its effigy had been carved within days, a testimony to the skill of the world’s sculptors. Ten thousand more civilians marched either side and in front, whipping themselves, singing dolorous songs of penance. Behind the cortege was a river of light, thousands upon thousands more people coming behind bearing torches, and wailing loud enough to shake the ruins.

There were other civilians too, those who had cast their lots in with different gods, and there could be no forgiveness for them. They were shackled to iron posts either side of the processional. At the very head of the cortege went Canoness Imelda Veritas and her Sisters. They sang hymns of victory.

Young girls, orphaned by the war and selected to be raised within the Sisterhood, ran ahead, soaking the traitors with promethium from decorated buckets. Ordained Sisters wielding flamers set each alight with a short burst of fire as they passed, so that the wailing of grief, the songs of repentance and triumph were accompanied by thin screams. Those waiting to burn were praying. Though their words were lost in the noise of the funeral, the combination of Vychellan’s enhanced eyesight and his battleplate auto-senses allowed him to read the lips of some. The word they said most often was ‘Emperor’.

‘Faith is a poison,’ Vychellan said. ‘The Emperor was right to suppress it. Faith empowers the enemy, and enchains mankind. It is blind. It reduces us to beasts.’

"For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium, for whom a thousand souls die every day, for whom blood is drunk and flesh eaten. Human blood and human flesh – the stuff of which the Imperium is made. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody regime imaginable. This is the tale of those times."

Hey so eldar time,

#

Prince*

serene jungle
#

Think it's just that he's so full of himself he gave himself that title

#

Since his position allows for such a thing

#

iirc they can literally call themselves anything they like when they are in that position
