Fug, ummm....I just fired up the grill so hopefully Talos is thankful for the burger and IPA i hand him?

If i can get him to not kill me for a few moments i show him the covers of the Night Lords novels i own and a calendar, in theory he will be curious enough to spend the time to learn English so i can explain what is going on.

>High Gothic is also known as "Tech" as it is a version of the language in which technical rituals and ancient works are recorded. This developed during the Dark Age of Technology. It derives from the common tongue of the time, an assimilation of English, European and Pacific languages which developed over many centuries in the American/Pacific region.
>Low Gothic is a bastardised version of High Gothic, combining additional elements from several of the oriental languages of ancient Earth. Over the millennia it has changed greatly, and now bears almost no resemblance to the tongues from which it derived. Although a common language, it varies from planet to planet (and even from region to region), so that it is not always easy for two characters to communicate if they are from different worlds.

I thought of that, it was my first big worry. Assuming he is a bit confused and i have a few moments while he is staring at my 100+ 40k novels i would grab a notebook and draw the most important stick figures of my life, trying to explain why he shouldn't eat my brain because he wouldn't get enough information. Like a stick figure of a guy with thought bubbles next to one covered in spikes with a bunch of thought bubbles, then spiky guy eating them but only getting a few of them. Also i would desperately shove my english/latin dictionary at him.

Logically if you can get them to not kill you for an hour or two language isn't a problem. Marines have perfect memory and total recall.

Just start pointing at things and naming them while talking to them and they will have a working knowledge of English in a few hours.

Being from the Blood Ravens, he likely knew this from psychic abilities.

They are 8. Look at the artwork and descriptions in books. I believe they used to be 7 foot in Rogue Trader but not anymore.

This Black Library picture is more proof.

>>54224700

>>54224700
They have never been eight feet tall, don't make me get out the Rick Priestley photo.

>>54225025
This picture is before the Primaris Marines. Space Marines are 8 foot. Primaris Marines must be 9 foot or something or the same height as Terminator armour.

>>54225074
I can quote BL novels for seven foot tall averages if you like.

Either way, actual studio fluff has them at seven feet still to this day.

>>54225068
They have been 7 and 8 foot tall in books and art (even one marine was 10 foot) but Space Marines are more common as 8 foot now. Look at the artwork and tell me the Space Marines are 7 foot. There is no way.

>>54225109
Loken in the Horus Heresy books is described as 2 and a half metres tall which is about 8'2.

Give the quotes though. I always use to see Space Marines as 7 foot but artwork always gave me the 8 foot vibe. Fits with the giant description.

>>54225113
>Space Marines are more common as 8 foot now
Most eight foot marines are people like Silas Alberec, who's a big guy, and not just for you.

Did you even read that book? There are plenty of Black Dragons that tall.

Silas Alberec was the 10 foot marine I was referring to (described as Ogryn size).

Never read novels with Black Dragons but most likely should. How many were 10 foot as that is really tall.

>>54225164
>Whilst wearing their power armour, an unarmed Space Marine typically stands slightly over 2.1 metres tall and weighs between 500–1,000 kg

That's Deathwatch, I'm looking through my collection. Gimme a bit.

Marines do vary in size by the way.

>>54225225
Their ossmodula is fucked up as you are probably aware. In addition to their bony plates and blades sticking out of them, some Dragon Claws can grow up to 3m tall and need specially made armour.

Death of Antagonis if you're interested.

See, you say that but, some chapters, like the Blood Ravens, have total recall as a chapterwide trait. This would imply that it's not common among every marine.

They're shown to be taller in novels and whatnot, but one thing GW has been consistent with in all official fluff is that they're 7 feet. Pic related is from a promo they did just a couple of years ago.

I don't like it, but officially they are 7 feet tall.
