Well frankly a while back i made a choice to play a Dark Angel in DW. And i played him pretty jewish. But recently i found out the DA are supposed to be native american... but i like my way better. Not even jew here.

My guys name was Luminon Kohanim and he was the initiate of secrets, wore a roab etc. He was an assault marine and used a chainsword, a full boltgun and had a Good craftsmanship jump pack with an Mind Impulse Unit linked in. At one point our transport got shot down and i had to jump out and succeed my fly test and catch another marine (gay bloodangel (shudder)).

We even played a single mission with unlimited requisition, so we all chose terminator armour and i chose a master crafted heavy flamer... i forget what was in the other arm... probably a MC powerfist... my god... you could have chosen an MC hammer! What a fool i have been!

>>49117518
I think a jewish space marine chapter would be good actually... i dont know about any davids vs/ goliaths, but why limit yourself? It could be a fight between a marine and a chaos primarch why not?

In Jewish myth, (read: The Old Testament) there is a story of a small man, David, beating the massive, brutish Goliath with well placed slingshots. It would be fitting, thus, to have the Jews be represented by the IG-- the small everyman, against a big, evil bad; Chaos-- maybe even orks.

>>49116973

>>49118077

>>49118076
>the small everyman, against a big, evil bad; Chaos-- maybe even orks.

Thats a bit of a tired troap... im trying to convince you to be creative, and it isnt working...

What kind of special gear / tactics would mark them out anyway?

An IG regiment from a planet that suffers frequent invasions from a well-organized Chaos faction would make sense. One where they've lost their holy relics so many times they only have records of what they once looked like, and large cathedrals in general have been replaced by smaller shrines and well-distributed priests.

That's a bit closer to old Israel than modern Israel, but I think its also a more fun theme. Hell, make the Chaos faction themed as a cross between Rome and modern Israel; that would be awkward but ironic. Lots of air support, lots of tanks, lots of support from the distant Eye of Terror.

The IG faction could be themed around low-expensive weapons, no armor, and large numbers (fitting early Israelite tactics), with mention in their history of the great Space Marine Samson and the Martyrs of Port Masada.

>>49116973
The Jews don't fight on the front line, they are the ones running the banks and forcing others to fight for them.

>>49118225
That's got to have made the 6-Day War awkward.

How would they view the Emperor?

Their belief gotta be pretty unorthodox by imperial standards, so that aspect would probably work better if they were SMs.

all signs point to no, most earth religions were destroyed during the unification wars. then the age of apostasy spread the imperial cult no doubt purging any religions that didn't match the new dogma.

>>49118441
Like half the SM chapters and all of the IG regiments are based on pre-Age of Strife cultures.

Obviously they wouldn't be Jews-Jews, just Jew-like. Though if one current religion survived up to the 41st millenium, it would be Judaism.

>>49118198
Well of course it's a tired trope-- It's literally a biblical story. Much like everything else in 40k.

So, they provided the fighting, and other people provided the support? Isn't that the exact opposite of what you just said previously?

>>49116973

You could go with a few of the Jewish units in the late medieval and renaissance, usually in the Turkic sphere of influence, but a few others in Hungary and the like. They're not actually a regiment from a world, but they're a kind of brotherhood that spans several, maybe after their home world was sacked by Orks or whomever your favorite bad guy is; but they dispersed to a bunch of different neighboring worlds, but kept up their martial traditions.

So you've got a dozen worlds across the subsector, none of whom have this "Jewish" regiment, but every regiment has some "Jewish" companies in it, with their own doctrines and way of doing things.

The only surviving branch of Abrahamic faith after the Emprahs angst was possibly the Adeptus Mechanicus if you're among those that believe their religion is a heavily filtered version of Christianity.

If it makes you feel any better though, it might be possible that the Jews were taken out by techno-barbarians before the purging began.

>>49127814
Didn't thought about that. But there are some similarities.

Incense, robes, circumcision (remove of flesh to serve god), fanaticism, golems (robots/automata), live in the desert (mars).

Yes, mechanicus are the space jews. Jewchanicus.

A Jewish space marine chapter? I was just thinking about this after having read the first five books of the old testament (Torah, basically). The Israelites had a pretty hardcore warrior culture, so it actually works. I could see them having really interesting psykers, who more or less lead the chapter after having received visions from what may or may not be the Emperor. The thousand sons would be appropriate enemies of the chapter, but I could also see them bearing an intense enmity with the Word Bearers, or the Necrons. Bonus points if their base of operations (if we're using later biblical history) is near ultrimar, and they have to contend with the Ultramarines over political/spiritual/tactical differences.

>>49127927
Aren't all space marines circumcised anyway?

>>49127927
Also, you want to talk about purging the unclean? The Torah is full of that kind of stuff, and I'm talking about the fatal brand of purging alongside the spiritual. Several populations get straight up exterminatus'd, right down to the livestock. Old Testament Jew Marines would not fucking play with Chaos, or Xenos, or any combination of the two.

>>49128000
Or psykers. Black Termplars are jews too.

>>49127956
I'm not sure really, I'll admit some hesitation at the prospect of finding out. It'd be a funny little detail, at most.

>>49128015

I thought something similar, but I'd like to think there were a few figures like Moses (this one's important) and Elijah in this chapter. People with incredible supernatural powers, tempered and bolstered by intense (read; absolutely fanatical) faith. I could see them fulfilling a role that crosses the Librarian and the Chaplain together, which would make the Jew Marines rather distinct.

>>49128086
I really like where we are going.
Time to think about who their primarch would be, though. I can se them worshiping one of the two lost primarchs, claiming to be the true keepers of his story.

Could be some exile backstory, too. Where the TS burned down their homeworld, and the marines had to lead them to a new planet on the other side of the galaxy, letting many groups settle on various planets on the way. All the resorting cultures keep similar beliefs and dream about reconquering their long-lost homeworld.

>>49125468
He was from Anatolia long before the Turks arrived.

>>49128270
Seconding the Lost Primarch idea, can't think of another Primarch that'd encompass the Jew Marines character aside from Lorgar, which bears it's own set of (potentially engaging) complications. If we're starting with an Exodus like event, we could have the chapter end up being enslaved basically at conception on a thousand sons controlled planet. Again, the Necrons could be a suitable replacement, but the Jew Marines' weariness towards sorcery would implicate the Sons. Them being freed via the efforts of a legendary psyker-chaplain, who would become the first true Chapter-Master, would be cool. Since he wouldn't have a hand in the current events of the chapter, on the account of being centuries dead, we could have not-Moses be incredibly fucking powerful, nearly alpha level, at least. Coming up with laws that he'd lay down would be fun too.

Eldar are super kikes.

>>49118504
Uh... Judaism's primary difference from the other Abrahamic faiths can be summed up as "we are waiting for the Messiah to come and save us". The Imperial Cult teaches very, very firmly that the Messiah has come and been ensconsed in the Golden Throne because of our sins, and will brutally purge anyone who doesn't accept the Emperor is the Messiah.

So, Jews in 40K are almost assuredly extinct. Either because their faith has mutated from its roots by placing the Emperor in the Messiah's place, or because they were obliterated as heretics.

Israel is just a pitifully impoverished vassal state for America, like the possible Kurdistan.

While real straight up Judaism would be impossible, a chapter or refimrnt that borrows from ancient Hebrew war tactics.and culture could be potentially interesting. While the idea of enormous Jewish ubermensch is amusing, most of the "themes" of Jewish history and culture works better or is simply more interesting with the guard. Take for instance Judaic isolationism (do not associate with the Goyim), mysticism, and secrecy. These are just completely average traits for a space marine chapter. Meanwhile, you take a regiment made up of some very old genetic stock - perhaps the first humans to leave earth or some such - who consider themselves the Emperors chosen people, who can only be joined by matrilineal birth or marriage, with strange secretive rights that the ecclesiarchy considers borderline heretical but that they get away with because of behind the door influence, as well as a focus on guerilla warfare and force multiplication, then you have the potential for something very interesting. My suggestion would be to make them friends of the Admech somehow, because the admech already sort of fills this niche, and further more the Jewish legend of the Golem fits admech approaches to robotics to a T

The best (only) way to use the Jews as a human part of the Imperium requires considering the Jewish experience, which is that of an oppressed and misunderstood minority among a majority that barely tolerates them for their practical uses.

It's going to sound like a meme, but your best bet is to make them Abhumans. It's the only social demographic that the Imperium oppresses but also suffers to live (as long as they're human enough).

This means we must consider what possible mutation/differences we could have.

And the there's only one way any self respecting Israel-Marine should deal with that. Wars of extermination, quite possibly by what the marines perceive to be the Emperor's mandate, which is communicated through the psyker-chaplains' visions.

Meanwhile the two male HRC supporters I know sound like the most kooky stereotypical Trump supporters in every respect -- deranged conspiracy theories, good ole southern boys, love Reagan, etc., and deeply dislike her. They're not as outspoken emotionally (I suspect men feel uncomfortable about expressing passionate hate for women or something?), but instead they simply explain they identify as Democrats, and think the Republican party ARE the Klu Klux Klan or is going to take away his citizenship because and kill him, because he has brown skin.
