What do you think, /tg/?
If a Jewish Space Marine Chapter existed.
(i.e a homebrew chapter that followed the principles of the beliefs of Judaism and treated the enemies of mankind as one would within the following) would you play it?
>>
>>51683552
Regular ol Jews, not really. Maybe something like the giants of Gath and Hinnom in Dominions though.
>>
>>51683648
WAT
>>
Guessing the chaplains are Rabbi's?
>>
>>51683663
Gath, Hinnom and some third one are playable nations in Dominions 3 and onward. They're a race of nephilim giants who eat men and keep them as slaves, inspired by Jewish mythology about the antediluvian world. I could see a Blood Angels sucessor chapter who are abnormally tall and have horns, ruled by kaballistic priest-kings influenced by the local permutation of the imperial cult.
>>
I made a certain chapter that would love to put your chapter in an easy bake
>>
Jewish lack a warrior culture unless you count Israel, which is more of a Soldier culture and doesn't fit with the Astartes as much as they would the Imperial Guard, but the situation is rather hard to translate to 40k due to the type of cold war going on being something that would quickly turn hot in 40k.

Best guess I could say is focus on the original Golem stuff.
>>
>>51683552
I'm just going to get the obligatory 'back to /pol/' out of the way.

That said, quite a few of the ideas in here already have the potential to be something good. Looking forward to how this develops.
>>
>>51683868
I know creator of this thread. We have no association to Pol since we are both Jewish. No shape or form did this connect to /pol/.
>>
>>51683813
Also it could be the thats challenge of the chapter. They hunt a mythical creature that is the golem.
>>
>>51683949
Or... an offshoot of Techmarines with an emphasis on Dreadnoughts and Servitors.
>>
>>51683552
Maybe something like they don't believe the emperor to be divine? Severely reduced in number from a large threat a couple hundred years ago, now they're a bunch of scattered crusade fleets. They could have a series of hand written texts that the inquisition doesn't like thogh they date back from before the heresy.

That sound cool?

There's a bit more of a warrior focus if you look back to ancient Judea, though. And if you're looking for warrior monks, then you'll find no better examples than King Solomon's Kabbalists.
>>
Alrighty lets start with the chapter generation.
Some basic things should just be in order. The planets a death world (IE think tellaran desert spaces with more monster based of jew folk lore). Also that the chapter goes off hunt tradition where find the brothers who didnt survive the implantation and mutated in Clay like Husks that stalk the wastes of planet.

Since OP just went to sleep. I was skyping with him. Imma take over. So to what I have seen. One guy suggest death world. Golems are what they hunt as trial before they get augments. And a large focus on Tech marines due to the cultures tendency to strive for high intelligence.

Honestly reading a bit more into Nephilim honestly would fit astartes. IE this "There were giants in the earth in those days". Generally it isnt unlikely for the original chapter to be considered GIANTS. The chapter adopted a more different revision of Nephillim story's. So marines are reincarnation of there old story's.

The Marines would be the Sicarii. There would be an interesting relationship between the Empire and the local planet. This would be a situation that mirrors the Jewish-Roman wars, where the Romans/Empire conquer the kingdom (blow up the government from orbit) and then rule it harshly, deporting the local psykers. I would have this: The Empire deports children of significant talent (esp psykers) and educates them in the Schola Progenium, then returns them as the Imperial Guard. The best of them are recruited as Marines - known as the Sicarii (a joke as that is what the local assassins were called). The Marines have a high number of psykers (mysticism!) but are kept loyal by being taken from their planet at a young age. The Empire would be smart enough to make sure that the Sicarii never return home... but what if one did...?
>>
In real life the locals resisted the Romans through assassins known as the Sicarii, which is too cool to ignore. They are much like the later assassins in that they blend in with the crowd and then lash out with knives to (hopefully) disappear back into the crowd.
>>
>>51685262

They also launched two huge and a lot of smaller revolts, one of which took almost a third of the Roman army under Hadrian to put down. They could fight when it came to it.
>>
I'd imagine that the Sicarii would be watched fairly closely. But they are marines and I think a core of them might have worked out what happened. They aren't going to rebel outright but I imagine there is a small group of them who operate through agents to keep an eye on Imperial excesses. They are playing a dangerous game.
>>
>>51684654
>The Talmudic position concerning deception of Gentiles is embodied in the Halachic dictum, "It is permitted to deceive a goy (Gentile)."

I just checked that section and the statement is said to be merely the view of one Rabbi, and appears to be intended to only apply in legal judgments (or perhaps specifically questions of tax collection? not sure) between a Jew and a Gentile where the situation cannot be resolved using either Jewish or Gentile law. And the Gamera then goes on to pretty much reject that view anyway before ruling that stealing and such from Gentiles is still forbidden and that Jews should obey all the laws of the land they reside in. That quote is completely taken out of context.

>and of course the many quotes from Israeli rabbis who deliver the same readings of the Talmud in their sermons.
Just because some priests say that all atheists are baby-eating devil worshipers and uses quotes from the bible to justify themselves doesn't mean the bible actually says so. There's crazy extremists and zealots in every religion and even the Devil can quote bible to his own ends. Context is important, especially when it comes to something that has been studied for as long and in such depth as the Bible or Talmud.
>>
I'd say the Sicarii would be fleet based with a lot of extra Imperial staff to keep an eye on them. They would be heavy on Librarians and mysticism, but being mobile I'd say they would favor quick strikes and infiltration. They would have an armored unit, which in honor of the merkava tank would be slow and heavy, the anvil to the quicker hammer component.
>>
>>51685241
Honestly I love this idea and mix it with some of the earlier suggestions and it would work pretty well.
>>51685300
Generally that should be assumed.
>>
>>51685262
That's super cool and all, but that's about as Anti-Astarte as you get, of all their varied possible skills blending into the crowd is not one of them.
>>
This sets them up to rebel against the Empire however. If the Schola Progenium and Marines get together and compare notes... there will be trouble. And the Empire is a fascist dictatorship with a line in fancy uniforms and marching with banners...
>>
Yeah the Marines are NOT the actual Sicarii... but I see a parallel with the Marine scouts and it would be a sick in-joke for the Empire to call them that.
>>
>>51685382

God dammit you just gave me a hook for a dark heresy and a really good idea. But you as well do bring a good point on how they would clash with other imperial organisations.

Well depends on the type of Jew, because there are many forms of Judaism. Personally I'll Roll with an amalgamation.

> History of getting blown to fucking bits, numbers being wiped then getting back up
> Savagery and Mercilessness on the battlefield to the point of excess
> Using special Imperial decrees to do what other chapters can't or will not do to get the job done
> Basis on Golems and Nephilin types for chapter heavy hitters, or perhaps mystics
> Claim direct covenant with the Emperor of Mankind, but willing to disregard Imperial authorities as they believe them to be lesser
> Chapter master has a history of using Chaos Relics but hates the ever loving fuck out of the gods themselves
> Said chapter master also wrestled Gabriel Angelos for a week because he wanted his blessings

I'll admit it could be pretty rad if done right.

INEVITABLE /POL/ ASIDE

Ancient Israelites absolutely did have a warrior culture, which often revolving around guerilla warfare and miracles (aka PYSKERS)

I suggest DA successors, call them The Judges or Keepers of the Covenant. Have them be tacticool as fuck, give them a elite corps of scout/stealth Marines called the Sicarii. One of their leaders should be named Maccabeus and have a giant thunder hammer

These Marines use stealth, guile, and guerilla tactics to wage war in areas of the Imperium captured by their enemies, such as Orks or Tau, who inspire and organize the Populace to take up arms against their oppressors and the enemies of the Emperor. They consider themselves the keeper of the sacred covenant between emperor and man, that of security and safety in exchange for vigilance and obedience.

The Sicarii should be a combination of veteran scouts and assault Marines who borrow equipment and tactics from the Ravenguard, and make use of power claws and muffled armor. Their tactical Marines should be trained to cooperate with and lead IG and PDF remnants as well as adhoc militia and civilian rabble.

Pysker Powers include Smite, Hellfire, and Might of Heroes

The Jewish revolt occurred during the height of Roman power and gave Rome the hardest fight they had had in a century. Before that you have Judah Macabee and his army, who were some hardcore motherfuckers that drove the Persians out of Israel using guerrilla warfare. Before that you had David and Saul who were both warrior-kings. And before that you have the original settlement of Israel, which the Jews did by beating the shit out of everybody else there. Jews had a pretty good warrior tradition before they were exiled.
>>
>>51685461
Their dreadnaughts are called the Golan, and are highly venerated, each covered in prayer seals written in the sacred language. Unique among chapters, each of their Golam is considered to have a specific purpose or mission, which the pilot adopts as his purpose when he is interred in the dreadnaught. Each of these purposes is referred to as a Covenant, and the book of covenants functions similarly to the Dwarven book of grudges in WHFB. Very few Golam ever successfully retire, as they are usually mighty requirements of the covenant, such as driving out all Ork kind from a particular star system for a thousand years, or destroying particular daemons or forces of Chaos.
>>
WELP. My brain just DIED. At the speed of light. The staggering amounts of Ideas would be amazing for an amalgamation of a chapter. I like Sicarii Veteran ideas particularity. And the warrior culture being based of some old jewish folk lore.
>>51685617
Also this is also amazing.
>>
Imma get some sleep. Ill let someone else take over for now. Way to tired.

So if we include golem soldiers should they be rank and file disposable marines, or big heavy hitters like terminators. Personally I like the latter because a clay terminator xould get half its torso blown off and still keep fighting, they feel no pain, know no fear, and obey orders with no will of their own.

The chapter Librarian and Epistletary are merged, with special non-pykser aides on hand to monitor the librarians themselves, referred to as Pharisees, for signs of warp taint. Pharisees are both the spiritual and secular source of scholarship in the chapter, a mixture of holy men and record keeper whose task it is to keep track of the many covenants of the chapter as well as see to their battlebrothers spiritual and pyscological well being. One fairly well known and frequently frustrating trait of the Pharisee is their tendency to answer all questions with another question, as they see it as their job to guide their brothers to reach their own conclusions and study the covenants themselves, though they can always be expected to have a bit of relevant scripture from the book of covenants or the codices Astartes in mind for any situation
>>
>>51685972
Worth noting that Guardians of the Covenant is an actual canon DA successors who could be co-opted for this as beyond a few details (which mostly match) not much is known about them. Alternatively the name could be changed. Anyway more ideas

The chapters first company is, in the style of most, the elite strike force of the Chapter. Colloquially called the Maqabim, after legendary chapter master Maqabes as well as the thunder hammers ( Maqabe meaning hammer in the ancient dialect of the chapter) their assault terminators make use of, the Maqabes are famous for single handedly reclaiming the Hasmon system from seperatists and heresy in a protracted guerilla war that saw the company making use of loyalist elements of PDF and Sororitas to exact lightning strikes against key targets. The populace was successfully recruited through a combination of charismatic daring and their religious practices converted, by force where necessary, returning Imperial worship to the planetary cluster. This forged an enduring alliance between the Chapter and the Sororitas who see them as a rare group of space Marines who give credence and importance to spiritual matters and faith in the Emperor

>Their adopted homeworld, Mortikah VII, lies near the western rim of the Imperium, and their mountain-top Fortress-Monastery takes the form of a mighty Imperial cathedral, its great spire piercing the clouds.

>True warrior-monks of the Emperor, the Guardians of the Covenant are assiduous in studying the teachings of the Emperor and of their Primarch. Their banners, armour and the flanks of their vehicles are covered in spidery, handwritten and illuminated High Gothic text extracted from the pages of the Codex Astartes, the Requiem Angelis and many other tomes held sacred by the Adeptus Astartes.

>Not much is known of the Chapter's combat doctrines, although by all accounts they seem to be a Chapter that shows a great deal more care for the common citizens under their protection than their parent Chapter.

>The lifestyle and doctrines of the Guardians of the Covenant are even more monastic in nature than is normal for a Chapter of the Astartes. The Battle-Brothers of the Chapter devote as much time to intellectual study and the scholarly arts as they do to training for battle. They maintain scriptoriums in their Fortress-Monastery where every Astartes of the Guardians of the Covenant is expected to spend time learning as well as aiding the Chapter in the creation of illuminated manuscripts of sacred Imperial knowledge. Because of their respect for learning and the dissemination of knowledge, the Chapter is known to have close ties with certain elements of the Adeptus Mechanicus in their region of the galaxy and often gains access to stores of more advanced equipment and Imperial technology as a result.

>Among the archives and data-stacks of the Chapter's Fortress-Monastery on Mortikah VII is a massive data-tome known as the Record of Oblivion which contains a record of other civilisations brought down by the Imperium's might.

The Guardians of the Covenant's Power Armour is a dark silver with black shoulder plates. A black-coloured Aquila or Imperialis is worn on the chest guard. The red-coloured squad specialty symbol (Tactical, Assault, Devastator, or Veteran) is indicated on the right shoulder guard whilst the Chapter iconography is painted on the left shoulder guard. Squad designation is indicated by a white-coloured Gothic numeral stenciled on the center of the squad specialty symbol. Company colours are designated on the right knee guard.

Like their parent Chapter and fellow Unforgiven, Guardians of the Covenant are commonly found wearing crimson-coloured hooded cloaks and tabards; with the veterans, this symbolises their shame over what the Fallen Angels had done near the end of the Great Crusade. Cloaks and hoods are worn by all ranks, but the Veteran Guardians of the Covenant and the Chapter's Inner Circle are most commonly seen wearing the crimson cloth, because they have learned enough about the Dark Angels Legion's history, and thus their shame, prior to obtaining their rank within the Chapter.

Yeah that's most likely Masada. It was one of the last bastions of the Sicarii after the fall of Jerusalem and destruction of the second temple. They held out against an entire legion for several months by collecting rainwater in reservoirs dug into the mountain.

Eventually the Romans got so fed up they decided to build a mountain sized ramp in order to get up to the fortress. When they finally broke down the doors they found most of the buildings on fire and that almost all of the inhabitants had committed suicide.

One of the most famous campaigns of the Guardians of the Covenant involves the sacking of the recidivist bastion of Jericho's Reach, a highly militarized hive city whose walls were said to be impregnable. Elements of the Imperial Guard and other loyalist forces gathered during the Chapters campaign sat outside shelling the city and blasting imperial hymns on laud hailers for seven days, but lacked the manpower or the heavy weaponry to take the city, which could theoretically have survived in a siege indefinitely or until reinforcements arrived to relieve it, driving Imperial forces off.

However, on the seventh day, after a week of this sustained light bombardment, a critical fractures suddenly appeared within the cities adamantine walls at key points, causing abruot catastrophic failure of the walls and the majority of the Jerichan defense systems.

The Sicarii, working with sympathetic elements in the hive undercity - an imperial missionary named Rahab who had become trapped in the undercity when recidivists had siezed control and remained in hiding for years - infiltrated Jericho's reach and placed melta bombs at key junctions and power conduits in the Jerichan defense network over the course of a weak, using the underhive and sewer network to move about unseen. At the appointed time they detonated these charges, throwing the cities defenses into complete disarray.

For their resistance to Imperial Rule, all six million souls, down to the last man woman and child, were slaughtered in a brutal and efficient extermination campaign that took the remainder of the year to complete. The only survivors were Rahab and her sisters, who were permitted to build a mission in the ruins of the city to administer to the new settlers who would be relocated to the now derelict hive after it was repaired.

Here's an idea. Jewish ancestry is matrilineal. Since they have such a special relationship to the Sororitas, maybe there's a special chapter of the Famulous dedicated entirely to seeking out potential recruits for the Chapter, by tracking specific genetic traits as well as visiting savage and war torn worlds on missions work?

So each marine quite literally does have a "mother" ( or an organization of mothers) who often maintain contact with them during their careers?

The Mothers of the Lost
A Famulous Order with a small militant wing to protect its sisters in the field, the Mothers of the Lost are an organization dedicated to finding homes for the billions of human children orphaned by war and strife within the Imperium. These benevolent if strict sisters take in, feed, clothe, and educate if necessary those it takes in before conferring them to more permanent homes, either in the scholarship progenium o the sisterhood itself. A small, select group of genetically and personality compatible group they reserve however and send to the Keepers of the Covenant to serve as recruits and aspirants for the Chapter. The Chapter lends it's protection and assistance to the sisterhood in kind for this aid, and the two have formed a symbiotic relationship.

Actually, Hebrew culture (that is, the people who conquered Canaan) and early Jewish culture (i.e. pre-diaspora) were surprisingly warlike. They had a rather developed "death in the name of God is righteous" philosophy, a deep, religious hatred for members of other religions rooted in a sense of cosmological superiority (that is unlike many other peoples in the ancient Middle East, who were actually fairly tolerant since if you're willing to acknowledge the existence of an infinite number of gods, no reason to assume the other guy's gods are just as legitimate...) and a renown for tenacity in battle.

Also, something something Rome needed two legions to quell their rebellion.

The Masada issue is such a big deal in Judaism because as a general rule, unlike Christianity and Islam, Judaism DOESN'T have a martyrdom culture. The people of Masada apparently had some kind of truly epic, high intensity theological debate at the climax of the story which ended in the HIGHLY controversial conclusion that they would be "keeping God's name" by killing themselves. Even so, actual suicide is forbidden. So the men of Masada agreed that each one would be responsible for killing their own families as painlessly as possible during the night, then cast lots to see who'll be charged with killing whom, until only one remained.

That person would be damned to kill themselves, but they'll do so knowing that their soul's sacrifice bought all their comrades salvation.

Given how the Romans treated captives, especially since these hard-cores had held them up for so damn long, it wasn't surprising that they cooked up an exception. The choice was vs "death by excruciating torture and public humiliation".

I really regret missing out on this thread now. I assumed it would be trollbait and so skipped it. :(

>>51688523

You've got it backwards. Jews were among the leaders of the Russian Revolution (Trotsky comes immediately to mind), largely because the Czars had spent the previous century using anti-Semitic persecution to distract the people from their own shitty rule. However, once in power, the Bolsheviks gradually started weeding out their Jews (not just Jews, but members of other non-Russian ethnicities as well, and muslims).

By the time of Stalin, there were active attempts to Russify the communist party. After Stalin's rule, Jews were actively excluded from party positions. It was hard (though not impossible) for a Jew to get a position in the KGB, Central Committee, or as a zampolit. Even academia (see http://www.tanyakhovanova.com/coffins.html). This anti-Semitism is why there were so many Jews among the dissidents.

So by saying that the communists took over and then Jews worked their way into positions of influence, you have it pretty much exactly backwards.

>>51687331

This actually brings up a good point. Astartes are sterile, right? And yet the duty to be fruitful and multiply, and the emphasis on family in general, is so important. And yet, how do you fulfill that mitzvah? Even if you marry a girl as a teen (common in history) and have kids with her, then you have a duty to take care of that family. And if you don't, then you've missed your chance to multiply altogether.

So then I remembered the Nazarite oath, and the more I think of it, its emphasis on purity and self-denial is a really good fit for the regimen of the Space Marines.

The populace was successfully recruited through a combination of charismatic daring and their religious practices converted, by force where necessary, returning Imperial worship to the planetary cluster.

You could take the book of Joshua with numbers filled off, and it would make for a great Astartes crusade.

>When the Astartes had finished killing all the men of Ai in the fields and in the wilderness where they had chased them, and when every one of them had been put to the sword, all the Israelites returned to Ai and killed those who were in it. Twelve million men, women, and abhumans fell that day—all the people of Ai. For chapter master Joshua did not draw back the hand that held out his power sword until he had destroyed all who lived in Ai. But the chapter did carry off for themselves the manufactorias and plunder of this city, as the Emperor had instructed Joshua.
>So Joshua burned Ai and made it a permanent heap of ruins, a desolate planet to this day. He impaled the body of the apostate cardinal of Ai on a pole and left it there until evening. At sunset, Joshua ordered them to take the body from the pole and throw it down at the entrance of the governor's palace. And they raised a large pile of rocks over it, which remains to this day.

You're talking about Elisha, Elijah's student and successor. Elijah was WAY more badass than that - dude was the definition of "great and terrible prophet, full of fury". Motherfucker took no shit from nobody - he was always angry all the time.

How does one prove the superiority of the Hebrew god to 400 priests of the Ba'al? Why, naturally BY SLAUGHTERING EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM (but not after thoroughly mocking them and causing a gigantic, miracle conflagration with the power of his BURNING HOT FAITH).

Not the guy you're responding to, but the Nazirite oath was something taken back in the Temple Period, and some of the famous Biblical figures (Sampson and Samuel spring to mind) were permanent Nazirites.


Essentially, the Nazirite swears, for a certain duration (sometimes life) to refrain from

1) Cutting their hair

2) Eating grapes or any grape product, such as drinking wine

3) Going near dead bodies.


Usually, you would only do this for about a month, serve your time, and then bring a sacrifice ( a sin-offering, actually, which is interesting), and then go back to your normal life. Sometimes though, as mentioned above, certain figures would become permanent nazirites. It's not clear whether it was considered some kind of remedial therapy thing, or if it was considered to be a higher state of spirituality. All of the individual actions have other parallels in religious Judaism, the first two are commonly done while mourning, while the keeping away from the dead seems to be a hightened sensitivity to issues of ritual purity.


Obviously, you'd have to tweak it somewhat for an Astartes, one who can't be near the dead is going to be ineffective. But that's basically the Nazirite oath in a nutshell.

Maybe a bit too much on the nose but have this chapter deny the divinity of the Emperor as anything other than an inspired man... yet extremely dedicated to the imperial creed of destroying its enemies and purging heretics.

The Imperial church distrusts them incredibly for their disbelief but keep their misgivings to themselves, because they have contacts with a chapter that has 100% always responded to their calls for aid. This puts them working with the sisters and going on crusade fairly regular thing.

Other SM chapters are wary, even whispering of them as lap tops of the Ecclessiarchy. Making the chapter a bit of a pariah not fully accepted by any segment of imperial society.

Their responsibilities means the chapter is spread out across the galaxy and they have small outposts and a large nomadic fleet to help. There are rumours that they have a larger than codex astartes allowed chapter, although their connections with the powerful imperium means such matters arent seriously inspected.

For their part, its always been argued that the nature of their strategy means they have a large fleet, the extra marines component being the reasoning for the discrepency. No one is quite satisfied with this answer,,,
>>
>>51691405
>have this chapter deny the divinity of the Emperor as anything other than an inspired man.
the problem is that is literally the posistion of *every* Space Marine chapter barring very few exceptions. They regard the Emperor and his Primarchs as men, which is why the Ecclesiarchy and the SoB's are traditionally so skeptical of Spess Marines

I'm sure something like that would provoke a reaction from the Inquisition.


Besides, the Nephilim are something that's part of the mythology of Jewish belief, they weren't people that the Jews did much interaction with, unless you count a few legends of figures like Sichon and Og, whom they fought against anyway.
>>
>>51692173
You could find something that fits.
SM had children with some mortals, inquisitor saw that, flipped the exterminatus switch, and sent some melta torpedoes to melt the polar caps of the planet, causing a mythical flood.
But a few nephilims managed to escape, and the chapter encountered them a couple millenias later. They are now trying to figure what to do with them, as the inquisition is likely to repeat their previous course of action. But on the other hand they're brothers in a way, and also carry the ssed of the Emperor.

Or it's just some abhumans that really look like the mythical children of astartes.
>>
>>51692295
Yeah, it seems to me a lot more likely that since the Astartes here are taking the role of the Hebrews, not angels, the nephilim should just be a race of abhumans native to the planet who were huge and anthropophagic. They were exterminatus'd in a mythical "flood".

Their genitals aren't removed, they just go through so much hypno-indoctrination and have so much of their regular mental capacity replaced with WAR ALL THE TIME EVERY TIME EVERY DAY that they simply don't really feel sexual desire.

If some woman rubbed up on their junk for long enough, I'm sure it would become erect, just like you can give a sleeping or unwilling dude an erection, but they wouldn't be very interested in it.

And with so much genetic alteration having been done to the Marines, anything that came out of them would almost certainly be nonviable.

This thread really makes me want to write a short story entitled "Fiddler on the Hive."

Rewriting Tevya as the devout head of a downtrodden Imperial peasant living a harsh life on an agriworld just fits the setting really well.

At the very least, you probably wouldn't get much out of it without serious genetic modification of the product.

To expand on the nephilim idea:

The astartes were always expected to be the guardians of mankind, not their rulers, despite their vastly superior genetics and abilities. As such they are cut off from the rest of the Imperium, only appearing to the common citizen to slay the Emperor's foes.
Yet on rare occurences marines lay with mortal women and produce offsprings, usually due to a quirk in their geneseed.
As with the primarchs, such offspings quickly rise to important positions and multiply, and it isn't unheard of planets being populated only with superhuman creatures after a few generations.

Thus the [jewish marines, name pending] were created, hunting their half brothers to preserve the Imperium from those abhuman monsters.

I tried not to reproduce (heh) other similar chapters like the Quasimodo marines.

Also, should halfbreeds produce female offsprings? If yes, we get female space marines, if "yes but zygotes not working", that's a bit magical realmy and convenient, and if not (malfunctionning zygotes kills the foetus?) it explains why the Inquisition is so afraid of the Nephilim, because it dooms manking on the long run.
>>
>>51694665
>Yet on rare occurences marines lay with mortal women and produce offsprings

If this were ever shown to be possible, the entire Imperium would break itself in half to either prevent being subjugated by the new master race, or to grovel before said master race.

Even the Emperor was concerned about this sort of thing.

The parallels between Gilgamesh and Samson are actually pretty blatant.

The Irony is Samson in't Gilgamesh, but Enkiru, who was covered in hair and made a giant man by Gilgmesh's enemies, who was tricket by a Harlot to lay with man and give up his god-given power.

Then again, Noah's flood and the tree in Genesis are pretty much copied from Gilgamesh too, but again, seen as the opposite.

The jews hated the other cultures.

>>51696521
I think at this point we go full 40k and start cannibalizing aspects from all Semetic peoples, just as Ultras are a mish mash of Greek and Roman influences, vut not let the Semetic parts over power the 40k parts, like the Blood Jaguars

There are literally no similarities between them beyond being strong, rowdy and fighty. Hercules is more Gilgamesh than Samson, at least they both wrestle a bull at one point.

The Dark Angels chapter is based on the Hebrews. This might not be exactly what you were focusing on, but fyi.

The Dark Angels represent the Hebrews. They are technically considered a part of the 'true God's' camp but are viewed with some suspicion. The Dark Angels are secretive and invoke a bit of mistrust because of it. One of the signature things about the Dark Angels is their past, many of them turned to the Chaos Gods during the Horus Heresy. A recurring
theme in the Jewish Bible is the Hebrews turning away from the 'true God' and serving other Gods. Several times this results in religiously motivated violence where those who turned away from God must be made to return to the true God or be killed for their betrayal (often both); the same internal problems plague the Dark Angels.

This is also why they are the 1st legion. Judaism predates Christianity.

Azrael is often identified with the Archangel of Death in Hebrew

Naaman was an Aramean who converted to Judaism, God gave him military victories and the prophet Elisha helped Naaman cure his leprosy

Asmodai is a demon featured in the Kabbalah, the Talmud, and the Testament of Solomon and is supposed to have been one of the demons who Solomon used to build the Temple of Jerusalem

Ezekiel was a Hebrew prophet
>>
>>51700672
So we can safely assume that the chapter is of Dark Angel stock?
>>
>>51701315
Or is the Dark Angels themselves. The Imperium is roughly based on Judeo-Christianity with the Emperor as the Christ. Everyone is waiting for his second coming. Of course, it's not an exact replica but it is clearly based on it.

>The jews were not very good warriors
That is just blatantly wrong. The Hebrews were know for being absolutely batshit crazy on the battlefield. They got their land by beating the shit our of everyone else in it. They gave Rome a hell of a fight while outnumbered and under supplied. Like most cultures back then they had an important warrior tradition. Just because they got conquered doesn't mean they didn't know how to fight.
>>
>>51688305
>something something Rome needed two legions to quell their rebellion

>needed

The Roman's completely destroyed the Jews every time they mounted an insurrection. The number of legions were to merely match/challenge the number they were up against.

>>51685526
Which revolt, because there were about 3, all of which were completely annihilated and didn't push the Roman's anywhere near a "hard fought" war.

During Kitos War, they were fighting garrison forces, which were a joke, until the real legionary's came in and kicked their ass.

In the Bar Kokhba revolt, they were up against around 400,000 Jews, and at best, had around 1/4th the number of Legionary's against them, they still crushed them absolutely. In the first revolt, again, they totally crushed them. They were so confident after defeating the primary Jewish stronghold, that they let a single legion mop up the rest of them.

Teshuvah means forgiveness. It also means charity. We give to charity. Its usually given to the enemy, and consists of enough fire to keep every molecule warm for the rest of their lives.
We always wear our helmets, because we must keep our heads covered in the eyes of the God-Emperor.
Teffilin are actually awesome, and in this case can be made of wards against chaos. (My Father's teffilin would, in 40k terms, qualify as relics: they, and the man that gave them to him, were smuggled out of Auschwitz on that man's Bar Mitzvah.)
Arguments over everything halachic, including ridiculous situations like conversion of Dolphins (true story).

For some reason I'm seeing this as a chapter of Chaos Space Marines. Perhaps because their home world believed that their part of humanity was so much better than the rest that all the other humans didn't really matter so could be subjected and killed without repercussions.

Inspired by the orthodox belief in a Jewish soul and where only the actions of those people according to the old testament can bring G-d back to his creation where they may be reunited.

That makes even more sense if you look into the history of Kabbalah, and the Jewish blood rituals, or "blood libel" as they have been called.

The Jew Marines are probably former Khornates who switch over to worshipping Tzeench after a humiliating defeat. (Pre/post-diaspora)

I'm told that it's just the verbal IQ that averages higher, but so much so that it distorts the average as a whole. So take that with a grain of salt - it may not be that they're smart, but that they're simply that good at lying about how smart they are.

So... they're that much smarter? I mean, be honest, would you've second guessed an IQ test that said the average IQ in Ghana is 68 Even though that's literally impossible given how IQ tests are conducted and what they mean?
>>
>>51729148
I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at. As far as I'm aware IQ is a catch-all term to gauge base intellectual capacity, for which several different testing methods exist. I've never seen a source confirming higher Jewish base IQ, however, and keep hearing about how smart Jews are from Jews who think I don't know they're Jews. So obviously I will point out what else I'm told to someone who claims the American Media as his main source of information.
>>
>>51729107
>I don't claim I do
If you have no source to back up a claim that ridiculous, that completely goes against how an IQ test is performed, than it's pretty silly of you to still hold it in high enough esteem to suggest it as an alternative explanation, is it?

>So... they're that much smarter?

>>51729148
not him, but when I was tested as a kid I got a verbal score of 142. Then again, anecdotes are useless for statistics, and we're currently on 4chan, so this should be taken with a grain of salt.

Not really. I say that one claim without source is no more or less ridiculous than any other. Now you yourself cite personal experience - is there a source for you?
>>
>>51729386
>you yourself cite personal experience
My personal experience is as useless for making a general claim as your "lie yourself into looking smart" hypothesis is. If the claim that the general IQ is higher is found to be true, I would resort to believing that one, just as I would if it were found to be the opposite. My personal experience and opinions have very little weight on what I choose to believe as wide-area claims about the world.

I also find it funny how /pol/ would swallow whole the claim that blacks in general have lower IQ scores, but would reject that claim that, say, Jews have higher IQ scores. Hypocrisy and other mental gymnastics are the first telltales of a blind zealot.

Well yeah, but my point is that those who'd take that belief for proven without there being proof (and while this also is a personal anecdote I've had everything from insults to attacks directed at me for not buying it, which in my country almost always means -somebody-'s covering up data) are also sort of blind zealots. If the idea holds and independent bodies (here, ideally, meaning neither Jewish nor antisemitic) have determind this average deviation to be there, that's that and I'm the zealot. If the idea doesn't hold and whatever study went into it is linked to the overrepresentation of Jews in American academia (which may or may not be linked to the widespread abuse of affirmative action), that's that and you're the zealot. So let's agree to not hurl that kind of speech around before someone actually links this to /pol/.

>>51729663
Since when did affirmative action favor Jews? over representation, as far as I'm aware (though it may just be that I'm biased as a Jew myself), has been mostly due to a cultural emphasis on education. The question parents ask isn't "are you going into higher education"- it's "where are you going, what will you be studying, how far you will go, and what will I be able to brag about to the other parents?"
