>>50785036
The change in necron fluff makes them the primary threat. They've regained most of their tech and power structure from the War in Heavens.
and that's terrible.
>>
>>50785059
No, it doesn't. The Newcrons madness and disunity lowers their threat level.
>>
>>50785078
The Silent King is already in the galaxy and reunifying the necrons.
>>
Lets review the implications.

The Astra Militarum codex says that should Cadia fall, there will be nothing stopping the forces of Chaos from marching straight into the heart of the Imperium, Terra.

Also according to the Black Legion supplement, with the destruction of the Cadian pylons, the Eye of Terror will extend all the way to Terra. Eventually, the whole galaxy will be covered by it.

The galaxy is bloody doomed. Well, more than it already was at any rate.
>>
>>50785089
Not fast enough. Necrons are still fractured and there are Necron Phaerons who hate the guy or want his throne for themselves like Imotekh who is currently rules the mightiest and largest of the awakened dynasties.

>>50784953
Imperium Faction.
Chaos Faction.
Alien Faction.

Free to choose models.

Look in your heart, you know it to be true.
>>
>>50785036
I would say that the Tyranids would be the primary threat to the galaxy. Now I do think that it's stupid of Geedubs to make 3 factions that are all painted as the main enemy of humanity and the galaxy, but to make to make Chaos the sole main threat again would take some serious retconning, that I really don't think that Geedubs is capable of doing competently.
>>
>>50785099
No, because this will advance the plot.
>>
>>50785129
>I would say that the Tyranids would be the primary threat to the galaxy.

And you would be wrong. Chaos has been said to be the greatest threat to mankind and the galaxy since its introduction. Now you are seeing this manifest before your eyes as the plot advances.

Glad the fluff will forcefully dispel whatever delusions the Tyranidfags had about their faction.

>>50785160
Chaos is more or less contained to a small part of the galaxy, while the Tyranids is an unknown, enormous enemy that with every tendril does far more damage than any of Abaddons Black Crusade.

Now I agree that Chaos should have been the main threat from the beginning, but it simply isn't the case anymore, and as I said before, I don't trust GW to competently make Chaos the main threat while still making IG, Tyranids and Necrons interesting.
>>
>>50785180

Nah, look at their most recent dull attempt at sci-fi humans. I'd rather have Kasrkin.
>>
>>50785036

No, Chaos is the greatest threat to -humanity-.

For example, the Necrons, Tau and Orks are barely at threat from Chaos at all.

>>50785180
While IG have a lot of cool regiments and models, Cadians are pretty good as the "standard" Guard army.

Chaos got mentioned in Rogue Trader. It was officially introduced later as a game faction. And from there onwards, Chaos was the BBEG of the setting.

False.

Chaos is everywhere in the galaxy. From within or without. Humanity's is rotten to the core by Chaos's corruption despite Imperial efforts to combat it.

And Abaddon Black Crusades ravage and destroy thousands of worlds. Also as the End Times approach, psykers are exploding into daemons. A thousand were lost in an instant to Chaos thanks to that. This just the prelude as humanity is reaching the critical point of their psychic evolution.

So get out of here with saying the Hive Fleets did more damage.

They have crypteks that can see the future and machines that can snuff out stars at the other end of the galaxy like candles. And a leader that wants to unite them instead of the mad gods of the previous editions. And now they have access to diplomacy.
Everything the other factions can do, the newcrons do it better.

Its primary military might is in the Eye of Terror, which is all things considered a small part.

Well you'd still be wrong, because chaos was introduced as a game faction before the end of rogue trader, with white dwarf and the later Realm of Chaos books.

And even ignoring that, 3rd edition's fluff is basically a straight copy of 2nd edition's stuff that they later built on.

Actually, they were. Tyranids are lucky to break a few hundred imperial wotlds before being stopped. Crusades reap thousands.

Why do you think that the Imperium is ignoring the Tyranid threat to focus on the 13th Black Crusade? (source the recent Deathwatch legend novel).

Tyranids do not have the destructive capability of Chaos.

Carnac, nobody is talking to you.

Yes, that fluff concept has been mentioned.

Yes, they could actually go that way if they're stupid enough to AoS the setting.

We're calling that fundamentally stupid. Furthermore, chaos marines are literally -only- a concern to the three factions I mentioned because of that gibberish.

Fuck off.
>>
>>50785320
And it became a fully fleshed faction in 3th ED which added the quote about Chaos destroying all reality and all life in the galaxy if the Emperor fails.

So 3th ED explained why the emergence of psykers were such a threat and by saying CHAOS.

The Crusades very, very really reaps thousands. Mostly they are stopped a Cadia, or quickly hunted down.

Also the Imperium isn't ignoring the Tyranids, but as of now they are somewhat contained, so when Chaos give it their biggest try yet, the Imperium will of course focus on that first. The true theat of the Tyranids is that we have only seen the smallest fraction of them yet.
>>
>>50785219
Sure, they work as the standard if you like mediocre/generic as fuck models. The problem is there really isn't an option to switch to if you don't like the "baby's first soldier" models. You get to choose between Cadians and EXTREMELY dated models.

False. The crusades went all over the place and sent the Imperium reeling each time.

They are. Kryptman gambit bought time but as the storyline progressed, Leviathan broke through and is heading towards Terra despite the efforts of Eldar, Orks, and Imperials to contain it.

Deathwatch novel. The Tyranids and Orks are spilling out of the sector which mandated the deathwatch to act to stem the tide before the spillage becomes so overwhelming for an Imperium facing the 13th Black Crusade.

What Ghaz did is defeat the Tyranids on the Ork capital world. However, the Hive Fleet responded by sending two more tendrils towards the world.

Chaos was always going to be the main bad guy from the moment the Realms of Chaos books were published. This is especially true in 40k where arguably the biggest event in the setting was a result of Chaos and the main faction for Chaos are also Space Marines, the most popular of which are tied to the aforementioned event.

>>50784932

It'd be easy for them to write this as a standstill, Chaos overtakes Cadia but the Imperium controls space. Wrath of Magnus blew up some no name planet and left Fenris damaged, but intact.

>>50785052

Priestly also wrote a decent amount of what sets the stage for Chaos being the main bad guy in 40k. You can't write about the Heresy being the most important event in 40k and go into detail about the Traitor Legions and then try to pretend they're not really important or a threat.

Rogue Trader was a completely different beast and it's somewhat hard to act like it matters when so much of it has been changed with Priestly being present for it.

Because that's your opinion and it not based on fact.

In reality, all main rulebooks said that Chaos is the greatest threat and that all xenos threats are nothing compared to it. The word GREATEST (I GOT STAMINA) was used only for Chaos.

>>50785521
Necrons lost multiple times in the fluff, but wheter it was against a single chapter it was either s minor tomb or with some outside help. Major tombs require something along a full blown crusade. If Ultras attacked Damnos with some twenty regiments of guard, titan demi-legion and few knight households and won through clever tactics I'd took it perfectly fine. Bot no. They attecked alone only with their serf auxiliary and won through plot armour and silly personal heroism which is more of a Space Wolf thing, whether Ultras are supposed to be tactical and methodical no-bullshit combat pragmatists.

Why are people freaking out? Roughly 120% of the game's playerbase has Marines as a primary or secondary army. GW will never do anything to truly alienate Imperial players.

If the rumors about the new plastic Celestine being released as part of a storyline where she's storming the Cadian Gate are true, even Cadia itself may not stay fallen for long, if a tall.

>>50785710

No, they are better suited to the 40k setting. I'd love GW to commit to some new plastic Guard kits. Having even two or three options for a revamped plastic Cadian look along with Steel Legion and maybe Mordian would be wonderful.

Storm of Chaos was a fuckup and even still I think GW took parts of it for the End Times.

If GW wanted to move 40k forward a tiny bit before leaving it in stasis again then the Eye of Terror campaign would be fine for that. Off the top of my head the only alternative I can see is them trying to repeat what they currently doing with the Horus Heresy where it's taking years to get to Terra.

>>50785855
I'm not talking about personally dumbass. I was referencing WHF with how it stagnated with people not buying a whole lot more models, and how this mirroring what's happening to 40k. Oldfags with the FUCKHUEG armies end up playing epic in a skirmish game, making entry into it pretty hard for some people depending if their scene supports stuff like kill team or not (or just lower point 40k games), and it just in general being hard to jump into the hobby right now thanks to the prices and community.

The whole situation is fucked, but the rules lie at the heart of it. 40k is a horrible game that is objectively terrible because it is so WOEFULLY imbalanced with shit like wraithknights or space marines getting half their army for fucking free. It's an endless cycle of escalating rules to counter another codex's bullshit.

GW just needs to sit the fuck down and STANDARDIZE EVERYTHING. Have ONE team of guys work on every codex, and scrap all current rules and re-do everything. but not AOS it, AOS is far too simple. Go back to 2E roots for 40k.

Imperial Agents in a way just seems like a vehicle to give both the Inquisition and Sisters a physical set of rules and make it easier for people to buy more models. Now you can use models from the IG, GK, and DW ranges without having to buy each codex.
>>
>>50786162

I do need to get a look at Imperial Agents.

Do they let you mix and match from the various groups? As I would rather like to put an assassin with my Sisters.
>>
>>50786184
They still have to be in their own detachment, so you can have a sisters detachment and an assasin detachment in your army just the same as you could before.
>>
>>50786184

Yes, like the Anon above said you just add an extra detachment to your army since every faction within the book has their own special one.
>>
>>50786243
>>50786289

Ah, ok. So while they are the same book they are not technically the same army.

Thanks.
>>
>>50786301
Yup. Kind of pointless.
>>
>>50786314

A bit, yeah. Mix and match and they'd have basically had enough units for a full army (And enough transport options to make it interesting.)

id say the other races would be affected by that friend
>>
>>50786314

Not really, the intention is obviously that you add parts to an already existing Imperial army. I think it's a much better compromise than having to take IG units if you want a Techpriest, some Valkyries, or some Psykers or having to take GK if you want an Inquisitor and Acolytes and/or an Assassin.

It puts all the parts in one convenient book instead of forcing you to juggle multiples. Nothing stopping you from taking everything as a full army either.

>>50786322

Certain units can take transport options from other factions within the book.

Not to mention that the Cadian models have sort of become the face for every regiment that didn't use to have models or a history, just change up the color scheme.

>>50786485

Holding the space lanes is good enough is it somehow prevents Chaos from leaving the Cadian system.

>>50786505

I think the Vendetta got removed from the IG codex and is strictly a FW model now. It probably won't come back ruleswise in anything GW publishes until you can buy it from them.

The Vendetta is still in the guard codex.

It didn't. It stopped the Cadian Gate from being fully overwhelmed but the Chaos forces hit the sectors nearby the Cadian sectors.
>>
>>50786605

Well then I'm not sure. All I know is that the Vendetta isn't in the Scion codex either and the Death from the Skies update seemed to foist it off on FW.

>Chaos lost Vraks
>The Siege of Vraks was an Imperial miltary campaign fought over the course of 17 standard years to retake the Imperial Armoury World of Vraks Prime from the heretical Forces of Chaos led by the Apostate Cardinal-Astra Xaphan.
>The Imperial Guard's 88th Siege Army was raised from line regiments of the Death Korps of Krieg to undertake the siege of Vraks and bring the renegade cardinal down in a campaign of attrition that the Administratum's Adepts calculated would take 12 standard years to successfully conclude.
>At the conclusion of what became a 17-year-long campaign of attrition requiring 34 regiments of the Imperial Guard to re-take the planet for the Emperor of Mankind in 830.M41, 14 million Imperial Guardsmen had been lost and Vraks Prime's entire original population of 8 million souls had been consumed in the violence or exterminated after they fell to Chaos corruption. The world was then declared dead and "Perdita" by the Imperium and placed under an interdiction to cordon it off from the rest of human space as ordered by the Ordo Malleus' Inquisitor Lord Hector Rex.

Imperial Victory, huh? Can't understand why you don't have enough manpower to reinforce the Cadian Gate at all...

Doesn't hurt that Chaos taking over is nothing but bad for the Dark Eldar in the long term.

To quote the end of the online 13th Black Crusade results...

>"Darkness has fallen across a hundred worlds, and for the defenders of the Cadian Gate, the pure light of day now seems but a distant memory. Though the forces of the Despoiler have been denied the ultimate prize of the fall of Cadia, Abaddon’s hordes have gained a foothold upon the worlds of Man, and none can see them being repelled for many years to come. Abaddon and his council of three have outmanoeuvred and out fought the forces of the Imperium at almost every turn. Corpses litter the battlefields in their millions, yet millions more still stand beleaguered, against a foe that knows no mercy and whose only goal is the utter destruction of all who stand before them.'

>The Thirteenth Black Crusade has broken the Imperium’s hold upon the Cadian Gate- perhaps forever. The raging tempest of the Eye of Terror has surged forth, engulfing those worlds lost to Chaos. The Imperium no longer bars the gate to the Eye, only a small channel remains through which Imperial Navy vessels may pass to bring aid to the desperate forces upon Cadia.

At the close of the Thirteenth Black Crusade, Cadia still stands. But she stands alone, a failing beacon flickering against the encroaching night. Total war is come to Segmentum Obscurus, and all hopes of repelling the invaders are dashed. The Imperium must now consolidate its grip upon those worlds it still holds, and prepare to fight a war that will not end within the lifetime of any of its combatants. While Cadia still stands, humanity has reason to hope, but Abaddon the Despoiler has finally achieved what he has failed to do on twelve previous occasions, over ten thousand years- he has breached the Cadian Gate, and none can now hold back the inexorable tide of Chaos unleashed upon the Imperium of Man."

Yeah, Chaos won that.

Mercenary hired by the Inquisitor, maybe? The DE have been known to act as mercenaries, and radical Inquisitors have been known to consort with Xenos to battle greater threats.

Nagash and Mannfred Von Carstein both are in Age of Sigmar as characters of the story, not just old models you can use. Stormcast found and freed Mannfred, who led them to Nagash where they attempted to reforge an old alliance...

The fact is, the newer the model, the less likely GW are to kill them off. It goes double so for plastic, which GW is shifting to...

If you're a metal/finecast model you might get a new plastic, or die, or be upgraded like Kayvaan Shrike will be when he gets his new Chapter Master Shrike plastic figure pack.

Is that a fucking Custodes in the background?

>>50787572
I would not say ruin but to touch a bit more on it this is whats gonna happen.

SO GW knows 30k is selling like fire, so what would they do? Try and replicate it the best they can.

That means they need 2 maga forces working against each other that are organized and not a crippling empire. So the big E is gonna come back some of his son are as well, and then they are gonna duke it out for the universe.

So in a way yes, its going to push it forward, so that we have major changes, and at the same time, leave it where it is.

Everyone claiming OMG they are gonna end times it, are just crying about the sky falling because GW learned its lesson that nuking an entire universe of lore because LOL reboot, is a horrible marketing strategy, especially considering that 40k has a lot bigger fanbase and following this fantasy did.
>>
>>50787619
GW has clearly not learned it's lessons making rules recently, what makes you think the writers have? If you're going to dial up all the threats, the Imperium needs to not split but rally and hard when the Big E reemerges. You know, which would be a massive change since that's not what it is like now. It seems everyone has a hard on for making the Imperium lose almost everything and that somehow is compensated by the Emperor being back.

Because it would be a good thing if they lost and then the big E came back?

Here is the thing, the reason the IoM needs to loose some is because right now, they never loose, and thats a problem it does not make for a good story when one faction never actually meaningfully has a loss. Right now its always the IoM wins at the end of the day.

The big E coming back would represent the whole IoM not being fuck wits any more, tech would take an upturn and start advancing again, or at least reach 30k levels again.

The IoM split is going to happen before the Big E comes back, watch i bet its going to be like the last moment, when terra is getting shit on, then outta the webway portal in the basement the Big E is gonna walk out to a smoke machine and back in black, and start fucking stuff up and getting shit in order. Primarchs are gonna be full boner mode, chaos will be pushed outta terra but at the cost of loosing cadia which means they now have a permanent foot hold in the real space.

So what you're saying is you want 40k to be 30k but with Mars Pattern Rhino hulls instead. Primarchs can stay in the realms of legend where they belong but the current crew are desperate for something 'fun and awesome' so they'll trample all sense in the quest to sell giant plastic eyesores.

The point is Nagash , Mannfred, all the characters except Archaon and Sigmar died onscreen.

The rest died as the world was unmade.

To put it into perspective, enslavers killed the Old Ones. So they're a very big threat, even if you don't see them often on the tabletop since warp jellyfish isn't the most interesting faction to play.

Rogue Trader =/= 40K. When it was said that Chaos was always the BBEG it meant for 40K. You faggots derailed it to Rogue Trader.

Even in Rogue Trader that ultimate threat was the Warp and human psychic evolution, not the Tyranids.

And honestly, the byzantine web of rivalries that they've set up in 40K now could end up having Thraka roll in and start blunting Abbadon's assault, because noone is allowed to kill Yarrick but him, or something equally crazy (Helbrecht and that Tomb Lord are still at it, right?)

You know what this reminds me of? The crusade of the faithful in WHFB. During the End Times, holymen crusades, and warrior priests went to the north to fight Chaos. They created a fall of faith that kept the Chaos Hordes out. But ultimately machinations of the Undead led to the wall of faith to be dissolved.

God, Abaddon is just so fucking stupid. I'd take Bel'Lecuck being the Chaos Champion over Lord Topknot.

He's been written in such a way that, while his deeds are indeed worthy of note, his actual personality is that of a cardboard box with the word "Evil?" written on top. He can't even make a threatening statement.

The Black Legion series is here to fix that. Abaddon goal is revealed to be that he wants to save the Imperium and humanity.
>>
>>50786949
What the others said, also it's like you didn't even see the words "Armoury World".

Vraks was not only packed with enough weapons to arm several million people (at least), but also built like a fortress to make sure noone could take it easily. So of course, the forces of Chaos took it without firing a single shot, when they corrupted the Cardinal, and through him the thronging masses of zealots who hung on his every word.
>>
>>50789687
I did. Several times in the thread. You guys side tracked it to being about Rogue trader.

And you ultimately BTFO yourselves when you posted a Rogue Trader page showing that the Warp was the greatest threat to mankind.

So back then and now. The Warp, which is synonymous with Chaos, was the greatest threat.

It's sort of because GW gave him to us and expected us to like him.

Deeeeerp.

Archaon has two novels that flushed out the character. Even with it, most of the guys in WHFB hate him for being an edgy atheist. Before the novels, he had as much character as current Abaddon. No, even less.

Abaddon is going get the same treatment as Archaon by getting a series of novels meant to flush out his character. ADB is writing them.

>The Immaterium is a dimension of the spiritual, created, sustained and influenced by intelligent mortal emotions and actions in the physical universe. The mind of every sentient being in the material universe save the Necrons and the C'tan leaves a psychic imprint within the Immaterium, and although the signature of one mind is almost insignificant in the energy or influence it generates, when the imprints of an entire intelligent race of billions upon billions of individuals are combined they have a huge impact on the very nature and shape of the Warp (this seems to imply that the Immaterium is not chaotic by nature, but has been made so by the chaos and war that defines so much of the material realm)

Alright. It means that Chaos has lost all meaning, since it does non-chaotic things. which is very close to Moorcock's original take on it, btw.
So in that case I agree that Immaterium = Chaos.
But now we need a new word for daemonic chaos to distinguish it from orderly chaos.

The Avatar is called a daemon in the rules.

You don't need a new term.

You have yet to prove chaos will win.

I didn't talk about daemons, but about chaos.
Now, saying that someone is a servant of Chaos means nothing. Eldars are since they worship Khaine, whose avatar is a daemon. So are Imperials since they got chaos related manifestations like Sanguinor, Legion of the Damned or angels.
In that context, saying "Chaos will win" means nothing more than saying that someone that isn't 'crons will be the winner.
