Fun team game yesterday, my WE with some Mechanicum vs DG and some more Mechanicum. Highlights:
>My Kharybdis, Dreadclaw, and DreadPod landed with no scatter
>Red Butchers Devoured saved 4 wounds from Durak Rask's thunder hammer and then wiped an entire heavy support squad with just his power fist attacks
>Kharn and Friends multi-charged 3 rhinos and took a combined 7 HP (sad face), one of those rhinos then killed itself with its own chem munitions
>My javelin survived a dreadnought charge
>Two dreadnoughts exploded each other at the same time
>Kharn and Friends broke from some Grave Wardens and proceeded to fail their regroup check, then got fucked by Castellax
>3 Thanatars are a good thing to have on your team
>Scoria fucked all over my back line,killing at least one of said Thanatars
In the end, I lost every single model but took half the DG and some robots with me, a few of my partner's Thallax and a Thanatar remained, and Scoria does what Scoria wants. All in all, good slaughter. I've come to the conclusion that based on how I like to play my World Eaters, I'll probably never beat our Mechanicum players, but I can sure make it tough for them.

Well, it's open-topped. Lots of people use them. But convincing pre-posthumans to charge posthumans sounds like wishful thinking.

The Gorgon doesn't exist because a) it's on the Macharius chassis which isn't in the game, and b) they don't want you to be able to make an army that feels like a possible 40k Imperial Guard list. That's why there are no Chimera chassis vehicles either.

Gorgon is the only Dedicated Transport Imperial Militia gets. Also, it's not canonically on a Macharius hull, since the thing has existed way before the Macharius was even a thing. The epic model of it looks more like a Baneblade hull.

>>

All of that is still canon; just hasn't been told (though I expect we'll get a few nods in MoM).

And Emps being born in Central Anatolia in olden times is still correct; seeing as it's mentioned that he gave Horus a ring from his original tribe
>>
>>49404393
>>anything that hasn't been retconned is canon

So Half Eldar Ultramarine astropaths are canon?

Wasn't the case that the Emperor was still born as the Shamans' reincarnation, born Perpetual and a powerful psyker, and went to Molech go gain god-like powers?
>>49404577
Isn't Nastase's position currently occuped by Tigurius? That's from the time the XIIIth was traitor, legions were chapters and Dorn was a regular Imperial Commander.
>>
>>49404527
>>49404551
We don't know who exactly created the Original Perpetuals which the Emperor are a part of. We know they "crafted" to be resistant to Chaos, though.

However, the Emperor wasn't born with godlike powers. He had to ask the Chaos Gods to give it to him in exchange for a promise.
>>
>>49404551
So why did the Shamans put all their souls into one body to escape Chaos, when there's a whole bunch of immortals who can regenerate just fine?

Why the Emperor, and amalgamation of powerful psykers, need power from the dark gods? Why is he powering himself with the tainted Chaos energy when he's suppose to run off of the untainted pure warp energy? How come the dark gods, who have been watching the Emperor for some time, give him their power?

>seeing as it's mentioned that he gave Horus a ring from his original tribe

>So why did the Shamans put all their souls into one body to escape Chaos, when there's a whole bunch of immortals who can regenerate just fine?
Well they most likely couldn't have become perpetuals
>Why the Emperor, and amalgamation of powerful psykers, need power from the dark gods?

Because obviously those powerful psykers aren't enough

>Why is he powering himself with the tainted Chaos energy when he's suppose to run off of the untainted pure warp energy?
Retconned; all warp energy is now Chaos energy

>How come the dark gods, who have been watching the Emperor for some time, give him their power?
What better way to win than to get the most powerful psyker of all time on your side?

>But wasn't that Persian? Persia is in an entirely different location and wasn't even a thing until thousands of years later
Nope; it's described as being from the Neolithic
>>
>>49404618
>when there's a whole bunch of immortals who can regenerate just fine?

The Perpetuals were crafted alongside the Emperor, apparently. Maybe the shamans didn't want to bet on a single guy so they made more.

>How come the dark gods, who have been watching the Emperor for some time, give him their power?

Just as planned.

Night Lords Legion 127th Reinforced Terror Company "The Court of Malediction"
-------------------------------------------------
-reinforced with an assault marine detachment drawn from several
veteran assault companies of the VIII Legion and a heavy armoured squadron from the
Legion's mechanized reserve in preparation for post-Isstvan V operations
-often deployed as a dedicated harrowing force during the Night Lords offensive in the Thramas
sector


Notable campaigns:
+The Desolation of Kormagor Rift 947.M30+
-127th Company of the VIII Legion censured by the Imperial operational command
after purging the compliant colonies of the Ychea system for suspected xenos taint and collaboration
+Pacification of the Cayex Cluster 962.M30+
-the inner worlds of the cluster surrender into compliance after the 127th unleashes
Exterminatus-class weapons and annihilates the outlying systems of the region
+Thalarisian Genocide 004.M31+
-The 127th suffers heavy losses after the insurgent hive-moons of Thalaris III
engage self-destruction protocols and release horrors of the Old Night in retaliation
to the Night Lords assault during the final battle of the campaign


Additional notes:
-Initially reported to be missing after the conclusion of the
Thramas Crusade, later reports indicate that the company had
become increasingly unstable after the disappearance of the
Primarch, development which culminated in the sacking of
several traitor- and loyalist-aligned worlds on the Ultima Segmentum
-Affiliated with a number of 'Blackshield' Astartes warbands
-Current allegiances unknown

Back when the Shamans comitted colective suicide, the warp wasn't so turbulent. In fact they did it because up until that time they had been able to reincarnate without problem, but they knew times were changeing.

So why didn't they approach him before? Or try to possess him? They've been able to do it with other psykers, why must the Emperor have a special portal communion? And if he's resisting their attempts, shouldn't that tell them something about his motivations?

>Nope; it's described as being from the Neolithic

I'm working on the last touches before I prime my Praetor. Other than that I'm waiting for the resin components of my Damocles to soak before I start putting that together. If I can dig up whatever notepad file I wrote the praetors fluff in I'll try and share it with the thread.

I've also got a box of Imperial Knight: Renegade sitting unopened. I'm trying to work myself into the mood to put together two knights for an allied detachment. I'll probably magnetize them as fully as I can, but if anyone could advise me how best to outfit them that would be appreciated.

You don't know if they approached or try to possess him before. And as I said; Emps isn't other psykers. And Chaos might have been fooled (or intentionally let themselves be fooled) to his actions

Then they shouldn't have put all their souls into the Emperor and instead spread them out among the perpetuals and live forever without needing to reincarnate through the warp.

Picture related.

Also....

>Chaos Undivided is a very confusing concept, especially due to the way one particular edition made it a little "gamey" and changed the lore quite a lot. That was in a very expansionist phase of the hobby, so a lot of players came into 40K seeing it as the truth, but there's a pretty simple way to view the Warp in moments like this.

>The Four Powers are Chaos.

>There's no Chaos Undivided, and references to Undivided as a "thing" are rarer and rarer. No more Mark of Chaos Undivided, for example. No more references to daemons of Chaos Undivided (not that there were many, anyway). The Warp essentially is the Four Powers, and the millions and billions of lesser entities aligned with them, composed of them, born from them, and so on.

>The worship of Chaos Undivided is the worship of Chaos as a concept, made manifest in the presence of the pantheon. It's the worship of all four gods equally, or the ignorance of all of them, not realising that they're The Truth of the warp. They can say they pray to the concept of Chaos itself, and that's all fine and good. But Chaos, in real terms, is the Four Gods and everything that comes from them. In this example, a follower of Chaos Undivided will still be getting mutations and blessings from the Four Gods (or their lesser manifestations) he'll just view it in different terms. The pantheon blesses him, or the warp itself reaches out to exalt him. It's not as simple as just seeing your left arm become a tentacle and going "Hmm, this makes me cost 3 more points and is clearly from Slaanesh."

>As editions roll out, and as Black Library gets edited tighter with delicious, beloved fact-checkers, a lot of year 2000-style / 3rd-Ed holdovers seem to be mentioned less and less, or simply never again.

Imbuing his sons with psychic powers; building the webway project

Also, if all of warp is Chaos and all of Chaos is the 4 gods, why is there a limit to the power each god has? Why do they have their own realms that have stuff outside of them? Why are there warp creatures not related to any of the 4? When did the 4 take over the warp and make all of the warp their own (while leaving areas and creatures they don't control)?

Don't skip read. Read all of it especially this part.

"The Warp essentially is the Four Powers, and the millions and billions of lesser entities aligned with them, composed of them, born from them, and so on".

All creatures in the Warp are related to the Chaos Gods in one way or another. The Chaos Gods did not take over the Warp, they have always existed in it. According to the HH serirs, the Chaos Gods were hiding in the depths of the Warp waiting for their time to surface.

>The First Captain, initially angry at the Magos’ imperious summons, had become serious and engaged as Ivasnophon revealed the nature of the technology that he sought upon Amethal. It was an ancient prize, something made by those who ruled the galaxy long before the first Terran life forms emerged from the primordial ooze. Other examples of its sort had been found across the galaxy from time to time, hints at an incredibly potent weapon against the powers of Chaos. Ivasnophon specialised in the location, excavation and imitation of such archeotechnological treasures. For centuries he had been following a tenuous trail of clues towards this, his greatest find. Amethal was not a planet, he explained, but rather a skin of rock and biosphere stretched as camouflage over an ancient cage. Vast beyond belief, wreathed in arcane wards and dark technologies, it was a prison-eternal for daemonic entities. It was the Magos Dominus’ belief that the Amethal Cage contained hellish beings beyond count, trapped for millennia behind warded bars. Why the ancients had sought to isolate these creatures from the Warp was a mystery lost to the mists of time, but the Magos was certain they had succeeded. Captain Karlaen was horrified at this revelation, for if that were true, then the empyric inmates of this world represented a dreadful danger to the defences around the Cadian Gate. At the same time, he was not slow to grasp Ivasnophon’s purpose on this world. Building upon his countless decades of study and experimentation, the Magos Dominus was at last nearly able to replicate the technologies of the Daemon cage. He was weeks, months at most, from creating – and then mass producing-devices that could cage Daemons on a vast scale. Though not a permanent solution to the daemonic threat, such devices might end daemonic incursions as soon as they began, and thus turn the tide in the war for the Cadian Gate.

So why does the 6e codex say the same old thing about the gods being born from the minds of mortals? Why do Furies, Enslavers, etc. creatures exist? Why does the Necron codex mention how the War in Heaven turned the once peaceful warp creatures into terrible monsters? Why didn't the Old Ones encounter the dark gods or why weren't their psychic races set upon by daemons when the warp was calm? Why is there a wasteland outside of the realms of the dark gods instead of the dark gods controlling it all?

>>
>>49405199
This is just in case some jerk brings up the bullshit about the Warp being calm and having no Chaos before the War in Heaven.

As you can see from the green text taken from Angel's Blade, several anti-daemons weapons and prisons were crafted by a race of ancients long before any life on Terra formed. That makes it roughly 6 billion years ago. Waaaaay before the War in Heaven which happened 60 million years ago in the 40K universe. These weapons were created as methods with dealing with the Powers of Chaos. The Daemon Cage was one of these weapons and it was a planet size technological construcr made to mass imprison daemons.

>>49405156
>Wonder how the Necrons ever made those dolmen gates without the power of the dark gods.

The C'tan known as the Burning One taught them how. The Webway is after all, half Materium and a god of the Materium would know a few things about subverting it.
>>
>>49405260
He was created because the shamans saw the coming of Chaos and the end of their warp based rebirthing, so they pooled their souls into one body to live forever.

Who knows now. Chaos fluff flips back and forth between "the dark gods transcend the birth of time" and "they were created from the emotions of mortals". GW doesn't care and neither should you.

Time is meaningless in the Warp.

Furies are rejected souls that no Chaos Gods want to claim. They are shaped into a grusome form by the Chaos powers and thrown to the Wastes to be tormented by the tides of the Warp.

Enslavers are not Warp creatures. They have physical bodies and can exist naturally in real space.

Nobody predates Chaos.

Be'lakor was elevated to daemonhood by the Four Powers Chaos millions of years ago. He has memories of the first Necrontyr necropolis and the first Eldar homeworlds.

He is said to be the oldest of all who dwell beneath the shadow of the Chaos Gods.

>>49405321
Apparently, it wasn't calm. The powers of Chaos and the daemons who serve them were active in that era. They were enough of a threat that the ancients of that time built Anti-Daemon weapons to combat Chaos and isolate their daemons from the Warp.

>"Furies are barely sentient daemons formed from scraps of Warp energy and emotion that coalesce together. They are amongst the lowliest denizens of the Realm of Chaos and easily subjugated by the Dark Gods."
-6e daemon codex

So they're born from scarp energy and emotions and since they need to be subjugated to serve the dark gods, in their natural state they're beyond the dark gods. Even though all of warp is suppose to be the dark gods...

>Enslavers are not Warp creatures.

The fact that they spend at least portion of their existence in the warp and use psykers to make portals to enter the material plain does tell a different story.

>see>>49405199 >>49405292

Where does it say they're made to fight Chaos daemons? Because what I read it says that the Magos merely found that the things work against daemons. Nothing says they were specifically built for that purpose.

>You're telling me in a galaxy full of other more advanced species the actions of some middle age tier apes brought on those three?

No, that's just your own headcanon. War, pestilence, etc. on Earth did not cause the dark gods, the birth of the dark gods caused war, pestilence, etc. And presumable across the universe.

Also, if the dark gods were forever, why did the shamans choose that particular time to pool their souls into one body to save them from the coming of the dark gods? Why weren't their souls eaten by daemons eons ago?
>>
>>49405618
The Chaos Gods were forever, but only inside the warp. On realspace it is known Slaanesh was born in the 25th millenium or something.
Also, "existing forever" and "growing stronger over time" aren't mutually exclusive concepts.
>>
>>49405389
>You don't; they're born naturally but randomly (one in billion or something) but Emps wanted all 20 to be psykers

But for example the navigation gene if not random, it's found in set familites. And the Eldar, for example, were engineered to be psychic without the dark gods. So why couldn't the Emperor do some eugenics instead of Chaos?

>He's the guy that managed to fool the gods to give him those powers

Again, we're talking about before all that. Why did the dark gods go for this guy in the first place. The fact that he tricked them, is powering the astronomican, etc. are all not reasons why they gave him their power.
>>
>>49405665
>The Chaos Gods were forever, but only inside the warp.

Except when their birth is attributed to the emotions of sentient races.

Also, lets say you're a War in Heaven ear Eldar and you enter the warp. Where all the white daemonettes at? What if you're a 10,000 B.C. shaman who dies and your soul enters the warp. Where muh daemons at?

She was waiting until she was born.

All all born of the Chaos Gods in the Warp. It doesn't mean they cannot be independent of their control.

>The fact that they spend at least portion of their existence in the warp and use psykers to make portals to enter the material plain does tell a different story.

It doesn't matter. They are not beings born from the energies of the Warp like daemons. They have a physical form and don't need warp energies to sustain their stay in reality. They cn exist in reality naturally like any other creature of real space.

"It was an ancient prize, something made by those who ruled the galaxy long before the first Terran life forms emerged from the primordial ooze. Other examples of its sort had been found across the galaxy from time to time, hints at an incredibly potent weapon against the powers of Chaos".

That is literally the reason they gave it to him. Re-read Vengeful Spirit; especially the part where Horus talks to the Red Angel. No matter how powerful they are in the warp; they still need mortal playthings to carry out their acts. Thus; Emps most likely offered to conquer the galaxy in their name; and they agreed.

Why the Emperor and not someone else you ask? Because they don't hand out this stuff to anybody

>Where all the white daemonettes at?

In the lower depths of the Warp. Path to Heaven makes it clear that the Warp is made up of many layers. Psykers can only glimpse the upper layers. What's below where the Chaos Powers exist, they are blind to them. The Chaos Gods hid in the lower layers until they emerged.

But that's the thing: everything changes when you enter the warp, and emotions mould the warp, but they exist only as causes, not as events. The battle of the Somme affected the warp, but not ont that date because dates do not exist in the warp.
Slaanesh and the Eye of Terror always existed on the warp, and it was only after M25 that those things began to exist on the material universe as well.
Remember: Meros talked with Rafen and gained knowledge that filled with the determination to sacrifice himself on Sanguinius' place. Meros and Rafen existed separated by 10000 standard years.

You can use your Geller aegis, and you are kept barred from the Intelligences. But even then, you are just below the upper limits. Go deeper and the aegis shatters. The lights go out. The Eye is blinded. When men say that they traverse the warp, they boast, for no mortal does more than skim across eternity’s face, like stones thrown by a child. We do not belong there. It is poison for us, and the deeper in, the worse the poison.’

Why? Time doesn't matter in the warp, remember. He has always existed, so why would he wait, he's been born the whole time in the warp and anything that enters the warp at any point in material realm time is subject to Slaanesh?

That still doesn't answer why they gave it to the Emperor. All the glorious stuff he did after he got the power could have just as well been done by someone else with that power. So why him and not any other perpetual or powerful psyker? What did he bring to the table that another immortal/psyker with the same pitch could have not brought?

Also, the fact that they did not check up on this dude once is telling of the retardation plaguing HH.

>"Hey, dark gods, gimme power so I can rule the galaxy. In your name, of course."
>"And who are you exactly?"
>"I'm the motherfucking Emperor, gimme power."

None of them looked at his actions before and went "well, he hasn't really done anything to further our goals" and neither did they during the entire crusade go "well, he's actively destroying all our dominions and putting up barriers for us to slither into the world. He's even getting rid of all the psykers!"

I don't even understand how the dark gods can gift some mortals with gifts and take them away, but can't do shit to others.

>It matters in real space. Also he was hiding his presence for the right moment to emerge but he revealed himself to elevate Be'lakor.

Correction.

They might not even been hiding. The lore behind the Daemon Cage shows that Daemonic activity was a problem during the times of the Old Ones which necessitated the construction of serveral huge anti-daemon weapons.
>>
>>49405794
>The battle of the Somme affected the warp, but not ont that date because dates do not exist in the warp.

Then how does tons of slaughter or psychic powers cause the warp to echo at the same time? How does problems with the golden throne or the astronomican cause the beacon to flicker and thousands of astropaths and navigators to perceive it at once?

How does Abaddon plan on his Crimson Path to roil up the warp and let his daemonic allies to venture forth, if he's not even sure all that killing will echo in the warp at the same time? How do warp portals work, if creating an opening in the warp doesn't necessarily mean the portal is open in real space?
>>
>>49406083
>What did he bring to the table that another immortal/psyker with the same pitch could have not brought?

He managed to traverse the Ebon Road without dying or going mad. Endured the combined direct presences of the Four Powers as they looked down on him and laughed.

When he exited the Gateway to the Gods, he was so damaged and exhausted that he collapsed in the arms of Alivia Sureka. It wasn't bloody easy.

Also don't you remember what happened when Horus entered the very same Gateway? The Chaos Gods were laughin at him and a voice from the future echoed from the Gateway. Guess whose voice was it? It was Abaddon's voice. The words spoken were this "Horus was weak. Horus was a fool". This implies the Chaos Gods knew the fate of Horus. I will assume that they knew what the Emperor intended to do and they allowed it.

After all, Tzeentch is called the Master of the Timestream.

Also, Astropaths and Navigators can see into the warp, but are firmly rooted in realspace. A Gellar field creates a pocket of realspace inside the warp.
And warp portals bind two points of realspace by bending (warping) the path between those points. Now it could happen to be a portal goes from point A in the present to point B in the past, but that's uncommon.
And high amounts of chaotic energy thins the separation between the inmaterium and the local reality and time, that's how the Eye came to be.

Imagine psykers are like submarines. They may submerge, but they always carry air. But the ocean is always leaking inside, threatening to crush them with more intensity the deeper they go. Don't they call the Warp "the Great Ocean"?

So they wouldn't have to waste thousands of years fighting the Imperium and the Emperor, when they could have just promoted Abaddon into power and have him lead the traitors into victory. Or just have Abaddon rig the Vengeful Spirit to explode right after Horus dies, so that the Emperor is killed and the galaxy plunged into turmoil while the traitor forces gather strength.

Evidence for the emperor being 'given' powers freely by the gods?
Surely he earned them? fought/earned enough respect from one god or another for them?

if he is anathema to the chaos gods them maybe he could just go in there and soak up some power or something?

Again, it's mixed with his own observation as well as statements of facts.

The omniscient narrator in Traitor's Hand confirms that it was created long before life existed on Earth by godlike beings as a weapon and a prison against the infernal creatures of the Warp. Now why would these godlike beings create a device like that and fill it to full capacity with daemons? Daemons which according to you shouldn't be in that era in the fist place.

>Are not his displays under stasis?

It is said that he has the ossified husk of an Enslaver. Doesn't imply that he put it in statis or made it into holograms.

>Daemons have physical bodies as well when in real space.

Corporeal manifestation that do not exist naturally in Real Space. They require warp energy to maintain their form.

Actually, the Emperor wasn't trested by the Chaos God.

The challenge was just walking across the Ebon Road and facing whatever random danger on the way.

Horus was the guy which the Chaos Gods tested until he earned the right to wield their power by wit and might. That's why at the end of Vengeful Spirit Horus was proud of himself because he earned what they Emperor deceived to get.

If vehicles don't have a LD then they are immune to attacks that cause damage if the unit fails a leadership test.

Not daemons, "infernal creatures." How do you know why these things were capture? Maybe they were studying warp creatures, trying to purge it from creatures that prey on them (like enslaves) or anything else. If you could provide clear answers, I'm sure you would.

>It is said that he has the ossified husk of an Enslaver.

Was it ossified when he put it in stasis?

It's still a physical body that can be touched, cut, that bleeds, etc.

>"Their true appearance in the Warp is unknown, but once they manifest in realspace, Enslavers appear as barrel-shaped or basic spheroids that measured approximately 2 metres in height and possess a tough leathery skin."

According to your source, Enslavers originate from the warp, they manifest into real space, and we have no evidence that they have physical bodies in the warp.
>>
>>49406868
>Not daemons

Daemons. The Angel's Blade and Traitor's Hand keep referring to the DAEMON CAGE inhabits as daemons. These ancient daemons even talk to and possess the Crimson Slaughter whose daemonic haunting made them have affinity to the prisoners.

>Was it ossified when he put it in stasis?

We don' know of he has it in stasis.

>It's still a physical body that can be touched, cut, that bleeds, etc.

Again, does not exist naturally in Real Space. It's a ball of psychic energy that the mortal mind minds forces aspects of reality unto so that it won't be driven mad.

>how exactly do they travel the warp and reach into the minds of psykers from the warp without being affected by Chaos corruption they're constantly surrounded by?

They evolved tp be that way. Ww know that powerful psykers and indivuials can traverse the Warp without being harmed. Like Draigo, the Fire Hawk chapter, the little girl and her black dog, etc.

No, but it means "to come into being, start". If they come from the warp, how exactly do they not come from the warp? And if all of warp is Chaos and Chaos is nothing but the four dark gods, the Enslavers clearly are Chaos creations.

You think Imperials know the difference between a daemon and any other warp creature? It's not like something that affects daemons doesn't affect other warp things as well. Look at, say, the Eldar Avatar, which is hurt by anti-Daemon weapons just as well as any other daemon.

>>
>>49407592
This. Stories that take place in the middle of the timeline can be literally anything, because there's always time for factions to clean things up and burn/rewrite the history books. The scale of the setting, both in space and time mean that even massive events that impact the entire galaxy, could be completely forgotten in the span of 2 or 3 thousand years. Stories that take place in the last few days of M41 will always be far more restrictive, with the fandom having to deal with the fallout.

Except there is. In Fantasy, the Gods of Order, racial gods, and other rogue entities were born of the Chaos Gods. Despite of this they were independent of the Chaos Gods and acted towards their own ends. (picture related).

Here is the ADB qoute again :

"The Warp essentially is the Four Powers, and the millions and billions of lesser entities aligned with them, composed of them, born from them, and so on".

It acts with the same logic as above. Being born of Chaos doesn't mean you automatically serve them.

It's like saying a movie is dead just because it got a sequel. AoS doesn't nullify WHFB, it builds on it.

I think GW waiting until he is more embedded in the 40K universe. Putting him into 30K lore in too hastily will cause a few problems with established lore. GW wants to avoid that if they can.
>>
>>49408595
i think you overestimate the amount of influence GW has over FW in these things
>>
>>49408595
Cont'd....

I just figured a way to make it work. Have Be'lakor recruit Lorgar and Pert as his acolytes. He will use his own power to ascend them to daemonhood. This would make the most sense, since the Chaos Gods will never make the mistake of creating another Undivided Prince again.

>GW wants to avoid that if they can.

lol
>>
>>49408651
HH is not FW. They merely do the game portion of it.
>>
>Be'lakor wants to bring down the chaos gods
>Rather than use him in the 30k timeline for this purpose, GW/FW/BL invent the entirely new Cabal storyline, and leave be'lakor collecting dust on the sidelines
Lol.

Fuck me, the GW staff are pushy. I recently got back into it and needed some Muhreens, and this dude is checking up on me literally every ten seconds and trying to pitch me completely random stuff that I'm not remotely interested in.
I get it, man. You're supposed to sell this. Don't worry, I'm still gonna buy it.
>>
>>49408765
The Cabal were introduced waaaaaaay before Be'lakor migrated to 40K.

Check the dates of "Legion" and Be'lakor's 40K dateslate.

What's exactly bad about the outcast dead; besides the timeline fuck-up? The Thunder Warriors genocide was good; as well as the idea of the Crusader Host

>>49409052
>The Raven Guard had avenged those sacrificed on Zenith-312, but in doing so had granted the remainder of Carinae's defenders time to consolidate their defences, and without their support the Imperial Army and Crusade fleet assets had suffered badly as they had attempted to hold the line. The Carinae Campaign, which should have been swift and painless for the expanding Imperium, would rumble on for almost another seven solar months and would cost many thousands of lives as the price for the XIX Legion's need for retribution

>>49408930
Pert doesn't really care. He already beats his boys for telling bad news, and he probably wasn't going to make the decimation fatal until he learned how easy it for IW geneseed to be accepted.
>>49409052
The Iron Hands come from a brutal world where people commit sucide through wasteland in order to not be a strain on resources. How else would they act?
>>49409149
He is a one man cabal. That's impressive for a Chaos Spawn. Let that sink in. We're letting a mindless, spineless, mewling Chaos Spawn ruin this thread. Stop giving him (you's).
>>49409220
French knew the Beast series was coming and wanted to give IFfags something.
>>
>>49409220
Damn, that one too.
I liked how Unification asked for a single example about Dorn being wrong and the other namefags got each a different case of precisely that.
>>
>>49409233
>The Iron Hands come from a brutal world where people commit sucide through wasteland in order to not be a strain on resources. How else would they act?
...hence why I like them being cunts? Hell, they even have a "Company of Bitter Iron" RoW. IWfags are envy.

The reason the Custodes was the warden in the first place was because he was compromised by a xeno viral agent and was weaker than your average marine.

The samurai was just stupid I agree.

The TS didn't delete his psy abilities; he fought against a blank and got fucked up.

Severian slipped away because they needed him for Vengeful Spirit.

It's McNeill, what do you expect

I suppose it's too late to claim I was making the point about Dorn being better for his flaws.
>>
>>49409313
>he fought against a blank and got fucked up.

fuck no is being fucked up then, then he reaches into his soul, finds his psy core or something adn crushes, so he can then see the blank, and kick his stupid ass

the custode was STILL in full armour, with a power spear. and the world eater had still been in his cell for ages. unless mariens are immune to muscle wastage, which hey might be, i dont think its ever addressed. And if these guys were so dangerous, why the fuck was crippled mcgee send to guard them? Especially seeing as they went to all thr trouble to put them in super special cells a bit like magnetos ones from xmen. By covering one plot hole, you open another

there was 1 cool guy in the book, and that was the thunder warrior, though how the emp didn't notice a thunder warrior on terra, i dont know
>>
>>49409362

I don't know if that's the Tormentor or random IW vehicle.

Shit, that's way better, changing the file name now.
>>
>>49409408
If it serves as consolation, Guilliman not only has his own version of Tyrants, but also two flavours of Breachers, with Scutums rather than kite shields.
>>
>>49409432
Not really, though since the prospero box will come out in October I think its safe to say that Inferno should also come out in October.
>>
>>49409432
November/December
>>
>>49409420
Because it wasn't just him; he was just the warden. There were entire batallions of regular soldier there; and Emps needed all Custodes possible in the webway war; so it's understandable that they might have been a bit understaffed.

And they weren't that dangerous; they just got thrown in there because they didn't know who could turn traitor next.

Regarding the Thunder Warrior; he mentions he faked his death and Emps has more important shit to do than care about all the crime lords in a world of trillions
>>
>>49409475
>Breachers
Wasn't the white dwarf leak the November issue?
>>
>>49409471
But anon, I prefer the look of Scutums
>>
>>49409555
Everybody does, Uni. Everybody does.
I guess the Fists got kite shields because that's what the saxons used, or something like that? Also, cheap powersword breacher roman legionnaries
>>
>>49409508
remember white dwarf is a highlight of last months releases these days
>>
>>49409619
Oh right yeah, thank you.
>>
>>49409619
So Genestealers come next week, any idea what's after that?
>>
>>49409674
probably more genestealers

I doubt they'll have as much to them as deathwatch, but my money's on a two-part release.
>>
>>49408765
Be'lakor never really felt like he belonged in 30k/40k, and his inclusion fucked with other aspects of the lore.

I think it'd be better if everyone just forget they ever printed that dataslate.
>>
>>49409674
Crap. Crap. Crap. Then Burning of Prospero.
>>
>>49409709
Yeah that seems like a good possibility, though Prospero and Inferno could easily be at the end of October.

My guess is

>Genestealer contents from Overkill+codex
>Second batch of genestealers stuff, probably a vehicle and new genestealer kit
>Fenris pt2
>That rumored bike box set
>Prospero box
>>
>>49409709
>>49409718
Good. Even better if it's after the next paycheck.
Burning of Prospero is the official name, right?

>>49411044
What kind of "something" you want to do?
>>
>>49411079
Eh, was thinking of putting two five man vet squads in a single land raider, then realized that I wouldn't be able to put my HQs in with them.
>>
>>49411105
>was thinking of putting two five man vet squads

Anon, thats not possible as its 1 unit per vehicle unless the vehicle is a superheavy transport in which case it can carry whatever the fuck it wants.
>>
>>49411105
I thought only superheavies could fit two units inside.
I think however that the whole Land Raider squadron can Scout and Outflank as long as a single Proteus has the Explorator Array.
Outflanking Phosphex Achilles!
>>
>>49411130
Shoot, I forgot about that.

Man, it would've been so cool to put them all in the party bus though. Aw well.
>>
>>49411203
Sorry for the horrible summary. I couldn't think of anything else.
>>
>>49411220
...Well, at least you apologized.
>>
>>49411146
Yeah, you're right.

How many Land Raiders and/or Blast Templates is too much? I love Nuncio-vox models and pay for them anyways, even if there are no barrage or deep-striking units in my army, but I can never really find a use for them. I feel like taking a ton of Barrage weapons to make the most out of Ironfire is a dick move though, and I like playing casual games. The same goes for bringing tons of high AV/Flyers too.
