[cerulean peak]

I'm teasing you 😉

[tall phoenix]

The romance is real

[safe plover]

i only read galaxy in flames

[wise yew]

I would bet this entire server he can't

[safe plover]

and the first souldrinkers book

[tall phoenix]

We all know thats a lie

[reef nacelle]

Imagine reading when you could listen to 40k while doing the dishes

[tall phoenix]

it also wont hold up in court

[safe plover]

ikr

[tall phoenix]

A 40k doing cleaning?

Are you crazy

[safe plover]

i also listen to 40k podcasts to fall asleep

[tall phoenix]

"podcasts"

[zinc crystal]

I never come here

[safe plover]

yes

[tall phoenix]

Clad are your ears even functioning

[drowsy urchin]

listening is the superior way of consuming 40k, but dismissing everything else based on that is weak souled

[safe plover]

yes

[wise yew]

Oh this guy is deep and I mean deep into the 40K rot

stage 5 no doubt

[tall phoenix]

How do we know you arent blind or deaf.

[cerulean peak]

Luetin IS good for falling asleep

[tall phoenix]

maybe you are pulling a long con

[tall phoenix]

I always found that as a "positive" for him really funny, Im here to know lore not fall asleep 😩

[safe plover]

everything i say is my genuine thought

[reef nacelle]

Do I look like a Nurgle worshipper to you?

Don't answer that

[tall phoenix]

Every warhammer fan is unhygienic

[wise yew]

if he was blind he wouldn't reply to our insults of him

[tall phoenix]

You neve rknow

[wise yew]

he just doesn't want to use his eyes for reading

[safe plover]

takes one to know one stinky

[tall phoenix]

maybe hes psychic

[tall phoenix]

More like takes one to go into a store to smell one

the fact that stores actually have to put up SIGNS telling people to be hygienic before entering is crazy

[cerulean peak]

I've met more filthy mtg players than warhammer enjoyers

[safe plover]

im both

id win

[tall phoenix]

Ive seen images of warhammer conventions asking people to bathe

so

[cerulean peak]

And I don't go near yugioh players

[tall phoenix]

Stinky and a loser?

Correct

[wise yew]

What a surprise the guy doesn't have a single ounce of knowledge regarding the smell of warhammer players

[tall phoenix]

Hes not well-versed in the smell-o-lore

too busy hanging out in vet chat

[cerulean peak]

[tall phoenix]

his nose is not where it belongs 👃

[wise yew]

yeah to be honest his brain probably has been rotted by the vet gameplay

[safe plover]

aaaaa

[tall phoenix]

hahaha

get him

[drowsy urchin]

I've only been playing Vet lately because it's the only class I've not done all the penances and class specific weapon masteries so I can feel the rot consuming

[safe plover]

why cant i remove embeds on webbrowser

[drowsy urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/rot-consumes-per-usual-gif-4629114161588388372

[drowsy urchin]

put the links within <>

[safe plover]

anyhow "Isyander & Koda" and "The 40k Lorecast" on spotify

theyre both really good

[tall phoenix]

Very mid.

next you'll tell me you watch arch

[safe plover]

😠

[cerulean peak]

At least it's not adeptus ridiculous

[tall phoenix]

LMAO

[wise yew]

or majorkill

[drowsy urchin]

I listen to adeptus ridiculous because they're dumbasses

and it's okay

[safe plover]

the ahriman episodes are legit amazing

[drowsy urchin]

but like, a few episodes here and there if they happen to appear into my youtube recommendations

[tall phoenix]

Yeah ngl Ad Ric legit fell off hard for me

[tall phoenix]

i think the issue is they just make way too many videos on random shit and hearing them banter gets a bit boring and repetitive

[safe plover]

ikr i dont care about what other games/ips you like focus bro

[drowsy urchin]

isn't that every podcast ever

[tall phoenix]

I mean not when its a single-topic one?

they cover everything warhammer

yet its somehow boring

[wise yew]

space marine 1 has more replayability than their video format

[tall phoenix]

this isnt joe rogan where one episode hes talking about a politician and the next its eating elk balls

[drowsy urchin]

at least they've got the trench crusade stuff too now which is nice

[safe plover]

40k lorecast is 90% on top 8% tabletop and only 2% irrelevant slop i recommend it

[reef nacelle]

Or you actually read some lore and realise the podcast is like 50% misinformation

[safe plover]

nah thats based

[tall phoenix]

nah

[tall phoenix]

I do hate the whole:

"we make it clear we arent doing serious lore"

creates tons of misinformation

thanks guys very helpful

its how we get gooners like Clad

[drowsy urchin]

joe rogan is the stupidest mother fucker around

[safe plover]

WOW

[tall phoenix]

Rogan is not a person to me. Hes a cartoon character like Alex Jones, I cannot treat this guy as a real person

[wise yew]

clad definitely the type of guy to listen to something like this because he can't be bothered to read

[safe plover]

yeah

[tall phoenix]

We established this

he cant read

how many times do I gotta say this

[safe plover]

now who cant read

lmao

[tall phoenix]

you

I just said it

see what I mean guys?

[wise yew]

see he would rather be wrong than read the correct thing

[safe plover]

yes

[tall phoenix]

His time is coming.

I have contacted the authorities.

[reef nacelle]

I still enjoy the show, I'm just there for the banter now

[safe plover]

🚬 ok guys lets start a podcast now

[reef nacelle]

That Dorn thumbnail they posted recently was beyond cursed

[safe plover]

https://open.spotify.com/episode/1xxnn2kV9ilvEZ9xCvgc8w
https://open.spotify.com/episode/26CUuKDvGEHK3OSCUPXt3E
i recommend these if someone wants to listen to something while doing stuff

[simple cloud]

His time… to shine?

[safe plover]

btw so far in end and death ollys char is written fine

i cant wait to know how it relates to that weird ass soldier with the same name

[tall phoenix]

It doesnt

[safe plover]

😭

[tall phoenix]

that plotpoint is done with in the book it appears in

[safe plover]

OH C'MON

[tall phoenix]

his name is gonna get muddled into legend

[safe plover]

AAAAAA

AAAAAAAA

[tall phoenix]

also spoilers

he dies

[safe plover]

are you telling me that random dude

lied his way into merging his myth with olly's

[tall phoenix]

They literally

have this talk

in the fucking book

"You lied???"

"Yes?"

LMAO

[safe plover]

🙄

[tall phoenix]

Im gonna pluck those fucking eyes of yours

remember the shit you read

[safe plover]

yes but i was hoping this wouldnt be the lie

[tall phoenix]

???

[safe plover]

i remember smh

[tall phoenix]

IT IS A LIE

WHY WOULD IT NOT BE

[safe plover]

soldiers lie etc

[tall phoenix]

also like

its an entire warground

who tf is gonna legitimize it

lmao

[safe plover]

😠

[tall phoenix]

even if they do

[safe plover]

REGARDLESS

[tall phoenix]

people would just say thats the lie

because humans are stupid

[safe plover]

REGARDLESS

[tall phoenix]

no

[safe plover]

i am happy with the subplot of olly ||trying to kill the emperor during babylon|| i think it gives bigger meaning to how olly felt about him

[tall phoenix]

Thats the tower of babel

also we dont get much aside from "hes a tyrant"

noooo really olly?

[safe plover]

its fine

[tall phoenix]

never

[safe plover]

its good enough

a lot of other plot lines have no answers no explanations nothing so im happy with this one

it explained his reluctance well enough

[bright slate]

the whole story is
"soldiers lie all the time. its just how they keep morale up."

||facing down Angron takes balls tho ill give him that||

even if his story was myth, went out like a chad

[runic root]

My face when the random zealot on the pub game rushes ahead, triggers a monstrosity/horde, gets himself downed, spamms thanks in the chat and then ragequits to leave the rest of us dealing with his mess one man short:

[simple cloud]

How dare u call me a random zealot

[runic root]

If the shoe fits...

[safe plover]

@tall phoenix oh my god malcador is so horney for the emperor

[tall phoenix]

Yeah hes his boyfriend did you miss that chapter.

[safe plover]

"he stands like the god he isnt"
"my king of ages"
"i ought to bow down"

[wise yew]

Dude malc glazes the emperor like a crispy kreme donut

That's like the most noticeable character trait he has

[safe plover]

i swear to god the whole schism with the perpetuals happened because he was in a love triangle with erda

erda scattered the primarchs because Big E cheated on her with malcador and she didnt want them to be raised by a cheater

"he knows i only do it for him"

[runic root]

Lul

[fringe axle]

are there any books that focus allot on the adeptus ministatum paper work slave mines?

[safe plover]

is a horror story about one of them ok?

[tall phoenix]

^ was gonna say yeah Watcher in the Rain is peak but its an audio-drama

theres a great sidestory of an Administratum Clerk in Avenging Son™️ but its a B-plot

theres no administratum focus books, they always appear in side stuff

https://www.reddit.com/r/40kLore/comments/zzvna4/stories_about_the_administratum/

[shy lark]

There's a funny bit at the start of 15 hours where a clerical error condemns a bunch of soldiers to a horrible death but that's all I can think of

[fringe axle]

yeah that's fine.

[fringe axle]

Ok, thanks. I'll have a look for it.

[safe plover]

theres a very good reading of it on youtube so you dont have to buy it

[runic root]

That was my introduction to 40k. That and after that majorkill videos lol

[fringe axle]

I can't find it. thank you anyway. I'll keep looking.

[safe plover]

i watched 70 hours of horus heresy lore in a row tbh

[safe plover]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFwAbnkp45w

[runic root]

Is interceptor City by Dan abnett good?

[tall phoenix]

If you like pages upon pages of dogfighting and imperial guard stuff then yes.

If you dont wanna read pages upon pages of pilot jargon, plane-descriptions, dogfighting then no

[brittle tapir]

clickbait

[tall phoenix]

We need to look at it, its the book!!!

[oak pollen]

yeah wes's thumbnails are annoying, his videos are better

[safe plover]

uhhh tough question

does anyone remember in which book did Gman or some other ultra marine break down the principles behind picking theoraticals and practicals? i need it for a joke

[runic root]

Not really helpful, but either probably in the dawn of fire or the horus heresy series. Maybe i dark Empire.

I would Google it with something like "theoretical-practical-ultramarines-reddit-excerpt.

[safe plover]

🤔 i think it was around the calth events cluster

[runic root]

On another note, as an impulse buy i bought the exorcist book by Robbie MacNiven.

Before i peruse its pages (oaths of damnation it is called) will i be disappointed or No ? (context for me, i love mindless bolterporn)

[runic root]

Could be

[severe trail]

It’s got bolter porn, and it’s also got some less mindless stuff

[runic root]

So it was worth the 18 bucks i paid for it?

[severe trail]

Imo yeah

I liked it

[runic root]

Aight. Our Lord and savior Dilara hasnt spoken on it yet but when a seasoned book reader like you liked it i feel much better in justifying buying it. Imma open it now and read an half hour or so before bed

[mellow knot]

Was it ‘Know No Fear’?

[safe plover]

i skimmed through it it didnt have it

i think it may have been a short story around that time

[drowsy urchin]

Know No Fear is the book the practice originates from, but can't recall where it is explained thoroughly

[safe plover]

i remember they had a few little axioms for choosing them but i dont remember where 😭

[runic root]

60 Pages in. A bit ominous and pretentious, but a solid read so far. I like the idea of that the exorcised deamon leaves some sort of partying gift to the aspirant. Also, between the mortifactors, who have to fucking die and ressurect and the exorcists who have to fucking excise a deamon by sheer force of will i cant think of any shittier space Marine order to be an aspirant in, not even blood Angels or space Wolfs. Maybe Grey Knights, but that is about it

[safe plover]

i just fucking realized where i heard "king of ages" before

the bible

malcador was fucking quoting the bible

"erm guies the emperor isnt a god, but im gonna call him god, his ex wife seens herself as a goddess and compares him to every god"

"BUT HES NOT A GOD"

[runic root]

Lorgar was right 🚬

"the word bearers won"

[runic root]

Well, he is probably the only one who still has one in his possesion

[safe plover]

yeah but i feel like malcador low key wants him to be a god

[runic root]

I mean, both mal and the emp have been around for literally all of humanity at that point, i am pretty sure they are aware how powerful religion as a tool can be. Wouldnt be surprised If Mal secretly hoped that after the death of Chaos as was planned by big E he would ascend to be the only god left. Like you said, he had a hard on for big e, whishing he could be worshipping him wouldnt be too far fetched an assumption for such circumstances

[safe plover]

i think E knew hed end up that way but didnt want it he only yelled at lorgar towards the end i dont think he cared until he knew his godhood was coming

[runic root]

Big E has always behaved confusingly to me. How he treated his kids was super weird. No wonder the heresy happened

[tall phoenix]

Its almost like its inconsistent writing of what happens when you got 20 authors writing said character between books.

[runic root]

40k continuity issues in a nutshell

I get it, that happens, and it does suit gw's narrative of "everything is canon, not everything is true" which was build around this conundrum as a cope.

It just doesnt sit well with me.

[severe trail]

this is why smaller scale stuff is superior

Heresy book series suffered from way too much scope creep

[runic root]

Imperial guard for example doesnt quite suffer from this because in the end, they are just squishy humans that suck and If they win, always by the skin of their nuts

[severe trail]

I mean

it does

for Heresy

Imperial army characters do suffer from inconsistent writing lol

[tall phoenix]

My favorite part is how we know it was gonna be like 20 books. But then it just instantly goes askew because we needed 50+ more

[severe trail]

if they show up in dif books

between dif authors

like

This is why I like smaller scale series or ones done by a single author for 40k stuff tbh

[runic root]

Quality wise, yes, but the themes and the ending is almost always interchangable

[severe trail]

not really

there's plenty of books that don't have that sort of ending for Guard imo

[runic root]

Well, at least with the ones ive read so far

Volpones glory, that one leman russ tank one, the one catachan book and one other ive forgotten. Oh, and vol. 2 of the last chancers

All of these ended with phyrric victories of the guard, 2/3rds of the book cast died, some weird, but in the end unimportant subplot ended on a strange note and the Hero walked away changed yet still the same

[safe plover]

booo

boring answer BORING

theorizing is a lot more fun

[runic root]

I see Clad, youre keeping the love Story between you and Dilara alive ....

[tall phoenix]

Its the correct answer.

[tall phoenix]

Shut the fuck up lol

[runic root]

Lol ok lmao. I just had to fan the flames. Anyways, gn to all. Going to bed now.

"i wanna use logic to explain a scifi story "

"logic"

This guy is not making it through the trial.

[runic root]

Bruh, If you want consistency and Logic, youve come to the wrong fucking place.

[safe plover]

yeah exactly i dont

[runic root]

Youre aware this is a british product? All sense and Logic have left the Island long ago

[safe plover]

@tall phoenix is using occam's razor

id rather try to explain the books in their own context without using such COP OUTS

[tall phoenix]

I mean its the truth.

[safe plover]

🙄

[tall phoenix]

I dont really care if you got a problem with it, the Emperor being badly written is a very accepted thing in the fandom.

[tall phoenix]

its not just abnett dingus

[safe plover]

ikno

[tall phoenix]

you do realize the Emperor has been written in stories by over like 10 authors right.

[safe plover]

what?!

no way

[tall phoenix]

and they all got their own view of him the implement that clashes with other authors.

crazy I know

its almost as if different cooks in the kitchen can make a mess

I had that for awhile but you REALLY arent helping yourself homie.

Im gonna have to ask you to stop these attempts

✋

[runic root]

Well If you were to elaborate i could explain myself but If you just want to vaguely call me creepy go ahead i guess.

Your "holier than thou " Attitude doesnt impress me

[paper maple]

I dont have an attitude like that, you are just acting very pressing and weird which is just offputting itself, its not that complicated of a conversation my dude, drop it at any time you like

or as the original post said:

[runic root]

That sounds, analyzing it from a stylistic point, like a brow beating argument.

I am sorry the way i talk offsets you but i still fail to see how that qualifies as creepy. Maybe as blind and pretentious, but i fail to see the creepy in this

Man

Im not reading all this

[tall phoenix]

Why is this a spoiler

[safe plover]

because it was mentioned in the latest fulgrim book

[tall phoenix]

Damn, you mean to tell me a loyalist primarch is coming back after a chaos primarch returned?

For the 3rd time in a row?

Shocking.

[safe plover]

No.

Not on my watch

[safe plover]

anyhow fuck THIS give me sangui or vulkan or even corvus

[tall phoenix]

Lmao I googled

[safe plover]

ye i think someone got some leaks for "Fulgrim – The Perfect Son"

[tall phoenix]

"Returned in a vision"

Oh fuck off lmao

[safe plover]

its called foreshadowing

[tall phoenix]

its called every 40k character has visions

like even if hes the one coming back this is so lackluster

black templars fantasize about dorn all the time lol

I was expecting something more concrete

book nerds dont get a say

[safe plover]

"rogal dorn comes back"
"his new power is detecting chaos"

🥱

Big E rolling out the primarch V2 OS giving everyone the power to detect chaos like bruh that would have been really useful 12k years ago

the books say the emperor took out his humanity before the fight with horus but i think he just took out his big stupid dummie part

[unborn merlin]

GW when they want to do everything in their power to not flesh out the Lion or Girlyman.

[safe plover]

5 more years until they formally acknowledge one another in lore

ONE of the short stories was good

[safe plover]

WRONG

[tall phoenix]

Trask

[tall phoenix]

Correct

[unborn merlin]

In that book Dante kisses Asmodai. Trust me.

[safe plover]

ye right after Gman marries yvraine and makes a half eldari half human avatar for yaned and the emperor

[unborn merlin]

Exactly

10/10 story telling. Gav does it again!

[safe plover]

why cant arron write all the books?

[unborn merlin]

Because he's a slow writer and we need that slop now!

[safe plover]

betrayer, master of mankind, the first heretic and even ehoes of eternity were really good

even if the underlying plot he has to write isnt as good hes a very good writer

[runic root]

But i like my emotionally unavailable yellow brick wall

[runic root]

Clad said it here, love makes you stupid.

[mental cobalt]

So we don't know if Dorn is alive yet?

It is cool they hinted at him in BT armor

err colors

[tall phoenix]

Every loyalist primarch minus Sanguinius has alwas been alive.

their fate is left ambiguous so they can just return in some future update

[mental cobalt]

HOW IS SANGUINIUS ALIVE

WAIT...

I read that wrong...

[tall phoenix]

[mental cobalt]

So you're saying Ferrus is alive...

[tall phoenix]

But also like even his fate is dependant on sales

GW would absolutely bring him back when they ran out of loyalist primarchs

tabletop money runs this setting not the lore

[mental cobalt]

Maybe Perturabo will turn loyalist again 🥺

[tall phoenix]

No because thats stupid and would piss off Iron Warrior fans

no chaos primarch is gonna be "redeemed"

[mental cobalt]

DON'T SAY THAT

[tall phoenix]

They are generic evil villains

they arent leaving that spot

[mental cobalt]

I will follow Perturabo no matter where he goes 😌

Goes to show you, don't neglect your children and make sure they feel seen and loved

[severe trail]

If I had a nickel for every IF and BT fan I knew who wanted dorn to be dead

I’d have like 6 nickels by now

[lavish estuary]

just read ghazghkull thraka prophet of the waaagh. 10/10 more ghaz please

[drowsy urchin]

Waiter! Waiter! More Nate Crowley please!

[proud gust]

Can someone tell me the best book for me to start on as I just got my audible membership back.

[drowsy urchin]

pinned messages have quite a few good starters depending on your preferences

[shrewd silo]

No chance he's way to OP.
First thing he would do is walk into the throne room and immediately understand the golden throne then proceed to spend idk how many years fixing the thing.
He would also probably fix Gmans armor and then copy it and slap it on his dad.

I just want him to exit the eye and build a iron empire next to the rift and have the lion and gman try and stop him by attacking the planets that he turned into demonic fortress worlds and him actually winning so now we got a small insanely strong defensive faction causing problems slowly taking over world's.

[tall phoenix]

Perturabo isnt some Master Engineer he'd not be capable of any of that.

The throne is ancient than the Emperor himself and uses countless DAOT and alien technology, not even he can properly manage it let alone anyone else

The morbid irony with the throne is that barely anyone understands it.

[cerulean peak]

The deldar made a copy, no?

For their emperor meat puppet clone thing

[unborn merlin]

Perty would try to fix the throne. Fail. And then kill another 9/10 of his legion to feel better about himself.

[cerulean peak]

He's probably just make it into an even more meat (psyker) grinder machine

Unoptimise it

[shrewd silo]

He has the power to understand anything because warp powers since birth.
It's just one of his powers.
Thing is he never knew of the throne and never got to see it

But if the power works like it seems to have always worked he's gonna be OP as fuck

[tall phoenix]

Its never been shown that he can fix anything he gets his hands on unless we count very rudimentary stuff.

He isnt some super-giga-engineer

[shrewd silo]

I thought that was his whole stick

[tall phoenix]

No lmao

Literally nobody ever goes "Perturabo can fix anything"

hes just a good builder, siegemaster and battle-coordinator

that is his schtick

[cerulean peak]

Perturabo couldn't even fix his personality

[shrewd silo]

I thought it was been a brat who was to smart for his own good

[tall phoenix]

^

[tall phoenix]

Its not about being smart

its because hes insecure af

[shrewd silo]

That's for sure

[tall phoenix]

he strangled his sister for calling him what he always was, a manchild

[unborn merlin]

Brother was hard projecting his entire life.

[tall phoenix]

Like im not even joking

she literally says

"You never really ever grew up to be a man."

😭

[wise yew]

now i agree with her but, that's the equivalent of going up to a Goliath necromunda as a hive scum and calling him names

Like you look at this giant dude and say that to his face you are gonna get strangled in the most violent way possible

[tall phoenix]

Her entire planet was being decimated by his legion, she didnt care at that point knowing he was gonna kill her anyway.

[wise yew]

that's fair

[unborn merlin]

Never forget what he did to my boy Dantioch. Perty is a hoe.

[mental cobalt]

You underestimate my genefather

[tall phoenix]

[mental cobalt]

I just learned about this, she asked him what happen to the boy who use to make such wonderful drawings/creations, and he said "No one wanted them!!"

[shrewd silo]

I actually kinda love the iron warriors they are easily the best traitor legion

[mental cobalt]

Preach

[shrewd silo]

Perturabo is a bitch but the legion is hilarious.

[mental cobalt]

They're my logical side while the World Eaters are my blood thirsty side. Love both cause they both have primarchs with great backgrounds

[shrewd silo]

Before they fell they were bombing each other for higher ranks

While also just having the most brutal straight forward way of killing everything but with advance position

[safe plover]

GIVE ME SANGUI NOW

[runic root]

Best i can do is a continously struggling chapter master who is not allowed to die trying desperately to keep the many, many struggling chapters of his blood together bearing not one, but two very powerful and intertwined genetic warp born curses ...

Poor Dante

[severe trail]

Bro literally got showed love by his family lol

[mental cobalt]

His sister for sure. But he said when asked "what happened to the boy who created things" by her or something similar to that, he said "nobody wanted them." He might have been shown love, but he didn't feel appreciated in a sense.

[cerulean peak]

I've finished the twice dead king series and now (finally) getting to read the infinite and the divine

[mental cobalt]

I don't think he felt appreciated by the Emperor or his brothers either. But maybe I need to read more

[severe trail]

He didn’t and he wasn’t

He also never expressed this

To literally anyone

Except for his kids

Who he also killed

Like regularly lol

[vale wren]

I have just read the word "non-inconsiderable" and hereby pledge to give Nick Kyme a very stern look if I ever see him

[quartz path]

Will b joining yall soon enough

[tall phoenix]

enjoy the first 3 books

after that...

[quartz path]

I've seen the chart. People talk about how their wallet hurts after any big purchase but oh my god, this is going to literally melt my wallet if I go for them all

[tall phoenix]

Good news you got no reason to go for them all because 70% of the Horus Heresy is mid/ok slop.

[severe trail]

Lol

[tall phoenix]

[severe trail]

Just read what sounds interesting

And the stuff required for it

Do not read all of it

I read all of it

[tall phoenix]

^

reading all of it is like

while i respect people who do it, its very needlessly and stupid imo

especially since literally half of this is written to be filler

This is probably the best Rating and honest video you are gonna get for em

Ian my GOAT

[tall phoenix]

Ian coming in clutch!

[tall phoenix]

The top comment has a way more shorter "5-stars" rating that summarises Ian's reviews so also feel free to look at that one.

Just stick to 3, 4 or 5 star ones and just read the summary on which one you wanna check out really.

You can pretty much get most you can out of the Heresy by like just reading 10 or 20 books generally

[safe plover]

good luck

first 4 are kino

rest are uhhh everywhere between CBT and kino-enough

[severe trail]

Mechanicum = peak

[safe plover]

ye it was nice

also skip all anthologies

theyre not worth a dime

[runic root]

Eh, all the detailed descriptions were overloading my brain so i needed months for this novel while i read the first 3 in like a week

[severe trail]

Yeah well I’m a nerd so I loved that stuff

[runic root]

Valid

[runic root]

Hide the toasters

[runic root]

Cbt?

[safe plover]

forget i said anything

[runic root]

Common dictionary/Internet slang dictionary had an illuminating answer. We can all rest our cases because i have now all the answers ive never asked for...

[mental cobalt]

Watched and will def avoid most books now

Also wanted to ask about what happened at the webway with magnus

[bright slate]

like.. what he did?

[mental cobalt]

[bright slate]

well

he found out what happened to Horus of course

and had an “oh shit, i need to tell dad” monet

moment

he decided warp travel was too slow

and he didnt trust an astropathic message to go through

so he decided he needed to be there himself

he put together several hundred, basically cultists, to help in a ritual

he got stuck on the outer defense of big e’s webway project

got pissed

and eventually fell to Tzeentch, who gave him the power to rip a giant fuck off hole in the defense

he then rammed right through the webways entrance in big es throneroom

which killed a lot of people, and custodes and SOS

and then a neverending tide of daemons started flowing in

which kills a lot of sm’s, custodes, SOS.. just a lot of people

oh yea, and Magnus is basically spanked by big e

Big e sent Leman out to collect Magnus

but, not knowing of Horus’ betrayal, Leman was tricked by Horus to actually judt kill magnus

burning of prospero

oh, and Magnus was a little sad boy, so he decided the best thing to do was nothing at all, and he let his favored city burn

[safe plover]

magnus did nothing wrong

if the emperor threw him a fucking bone at any given point he wouldnt have turned traitor

[reef nacelle]

He definitely did things wrong

But he had the right intentions

[safe plover]

the emperor had multiple points more than any other traitor primarch where he could have given him the bare minimum

he literally could have given magnus a new legion(assuming he wasnt lying, and based on the genetech he had hidden away i dont think he was)

but he choose not to. he new that the "flesh curse" is a chaos curse and still did nothing

[runic root]

Honestly, if the emperor had been a better dad, almost none of the primarchs would have defected. Except Curze. He was always doomed lol

[safe plover]

the only logical explanation is that having a loyal magnus would have made someone else turn traitor because thats how the great game goes

maybe the emperor traded magnus for bobbyG

[reef nacelle]

Ironically, respecting Magnus' decision to save his legion was the fatherly thing to do.

But given what it took to save it a bit of education might have been nice

[runic root]

ive heared somewhere that part of the Deal the emperor made with Chaos was that half the primarchs would turn to chaos. Dont know If that is accurate, still valid canon lore

[safe plover]

"erm yeah just kill them and make new ones lmao"

bruh they could have been soulbound to the emperor or magnus which would have stopped the flesh curse

it worked for arvida it works for every fucking astropath

[safe plover]

i dont think its canon but its the best explanation

like the deal he made to make the primarchs involved 50% of them turning traitor but the way he betrayed the gods was by changing whos traitor and whos loyal in a way to make him win

[runic root]

But wouldnt make them all blind, like the astropaths?

[reef nacelle]

The emperor manipulating his worst sons to turn is some big brain shit honestly

[safe plover]

astropaths get like level 90 soulbinding normal psykers get level 10 binding

[reef nacelle]

Magnus and Horus don't seem like the best choices though lol

[safe plover]

look at sangui he was made for khorn but still refused to turn

while angron was just deformed into it

[runic root]

How much soulbinding would a space Marine need in order to cure his warpborne affliction?;

[safe plover]

🤔 i have no idea

i should ask chatgpt

[runic root]

And could it also work for post heresy bloodangels?

[safe plover]

no

post heresy blood angels were ruined and their numbers were gone so they ended up harvesting sanguis body for geneseed

[runic root]

Lmao. Fracking AI Lover

[safe plover]

the geneseed harvested from his body is what made the problem 10x worse

[runic root]

Didnt know about that detail

[tall phoenix]

Magnus' legion was always doomed.

The authors confirm this lol

[drowsy urchin]

death by the author 😔

[tall phoenix]

your solutions are literally "I read the books so obviously I know all the solutions" when the Emperor very much lines up why its not possible.

like why the fuck would the Emperor mention they arent savable IF he could save them, you do realise how desperate he is by the Fury of Magnus book right

[drowsy urchin]

no but, you see, The Emperor can just do anything because he is THE Emperor

[tall phoenix]

but like in this case its very much set out that he very much cant, which is better than nothing lmao

But yeah like the Fury of Magnus is also said later to be basically magnus' biggest cope-session in a later book by vulkan

which kinda invadilates whatever shit he might have seen in the throne room, so who knows lol

[drowsy urchin]

Very true

[safe plover]

its common sense that if i told someone to kill his children and get new ones hell go goblin mode

[tall phoenix]

"common sense"

and dooming the entirety of humanity's last chance in the progress

ok pal

[safe plover]

dooming WHO

[tall phoenix]

The webway breach you simpleton

[safe plover]

all the emperor had to do was give them little bunk beds next to him and they would be fine

[tall phoenix]

and this is why you'd get shot on your first day

[safe plover]

custodes are too bitchmode to ever do that

[tall phoenix]

for you they'd make an exception

[tawdry crane]

Throne, flight of the eisenstein is 100€ paperback

Yea its much cheaper in english, is translation very expensive to do or something?

[drowsy urchin]

[tawdry crane]

Guess ill read zis one in englisch naja

[drowsy urchin]

what language are you looking for

[tawdry crane]

German

I went on ebay and its all very expensive

You dont have to do the research for me tho

[tall phoenix]

Yeah non-english ones get sold at a much higher price, its why I just give up and resort to english myself 💀

[tawdry crane]

Unfortunate but english is easy

[tall phoenix]

[hybrid turtle]

very goofy language though

[proud gust]

They love describing gore and waste in these books don't they

[bright slate]

Listening to dawn of fire book 1 chapter 3 so far. Loving this

[proud gust]

[tawdry crane]

ja just like ze döner am i right

[runic root]

Bruder, dont get me started on the fucking Döner

[simple cloud]

Wait but what world does it build

Does it have more about the Votann themselves

The ais

And the various dark age things

The votann are a crazy lore edition because all of a sudden there’s an actual Dark Age tech level faction with literal ais and stcs and men of iron and somehow

It’s made nary a splash

[tall phoenix]

Tbh they arent using full-on Dark Age tech, its just advanced technology.

If they were using DAOT stuff they'd just be like necrons vaporizing any competition they come across.

[frigid osprey]

theres also degrees of daot tech as well right

like not everyone in the daot was going around with black hole weapons or w/e

im sure the votann have something similar to how a screwdriver was in the daot

or you know a regular sidearm, not everything would have been super insanely exotic

[safe plover]

wasnt there one EMP weapon that the deathwatch had that was so dangrous to machine spirits that the admech would attack them if they ever used it

[frigid osprey]

and since they were space miners, im sure they'd have never been given black hole weapons, they'd have the shit they needed to do their job

like nukes exist now, doesnt mean everyone has access to them

[tall phoenix]

Yeah like people for example dont know shit like the Predator is also DAOT tech lol

its usually ranging from "mundane" sci-fi things to planet destroying superweapons etc

[safe plover]

"Frustrated that their lies have been exposed, the spirits of the ship become vengeful."

😲 when the vengeful spirit becomes... vengeful

Tempted to see how the BT sub is taking the book.

[wise yew]

yo @paper maple check this shit

[tall phoenix]

Fulgrim then gave Tamaris a trial to prove himself worthy — by leading an assault on the planet Crucible and taking the head of a Black Templar Emperor’s Champion stationed there.

With the honor of a Champion, Berengar accepted the challenge - and knocked Tamaris flat on his back with four strikes.

Fulgrim, shocked by how pathetic Tamaris turned out to be, turned to the others and said, “Is there anyone else who wants to try? Kill him, and I’ll make you my Champion.”

[wise yew]

and people wonder why everyone complains about space marines

[tall phoenix]

LMAOOOOOO

Rest can go die or fuck off

[safe plover]

something something the 6th crone sword was in ferrus' arm all long and now they need to bring him back

Leman and dorn are for better or for worse confirmed since SW and BT have historically had full supplements

I've heard Lucas the Trickster is a great book, haven't read it myself but it's on the list.
Burning of Prospero is probably my favourite depiction of them for me

[deft bramble]

are they fun in books?

[reef nacelle]

You won't escape this lol

They just change the words around

Honour = Glory
Emperor = Allfather

Boom, space wolf book

[deft bramble]

fuck sm yet again then

[reef nacelle]

I really liked the first Ragnar Blackmane book, it follows Ragnar as he's recruited. Good read imo

[deft bramble]

oh, a book about recruiting a sm

sounds cool

[reef nacelle]

Actual toilet humour in the second book too

[drowsy urchin]

Burning of Prospero felt like a viking saga rather than the funny wolf men they seem to be, which was nice

but I really should get Lucas the Trickster because it is apparently really really good

and BoP doesn't really have much of the default Space Marine machoman shit what I can recall
