You want a big 40k game?
While not a game itself, the 40k mod for Distant Worlds has a great deal of content in terms of massive battles and shit. It's bretty gud, but only if you like 4x/GS kind of games.

>>273129490
>turn-based
>the most based kind of based
>in both strategy games and rpgs alike

About fucking time. Screw RTS, 40K wasn't meant for that. I love how much turn-based stuff we've been getting lately. Turn-based RPGs are now in vogue again, and even strategy games have been back to being strategic since ASSFAGGOTS killed the RTS and XCOM showed up and reminded the mainstream that "real-time doesn't make turn-based obsolete, and in fact it's still better, look how good this shit is".

But of course, turn-based strategy has never been dead, not for a moment. Anybody who gives a damn about strategy games and 40K and doesn't like turn-based isn't a strategy gamer and they're not much of a 40K fan either. So you have quick thinking and twitch skills. That's fine, I love my action games, but that shit ain't real strategy, it's not real 40K. Unless you're pondering turns for a minute or more and looking through menus, you're not strategizing, you're thinking fast and acting faster when it should be about thinking hard and acting with assurance.

Its based on a fucking table top game, eat a dick

Because that's how combat works, sides just politely take turns letting the enemy blast the shit out of them and never have to strategize on the fly. If you can't strategize in real time you don't know strategy.

b...but muh dawwn of war :(

Seriously though. I have a friend who's a huge Warhammer 40K fan. I always had an interest in it, but never had the friends, the money, or the time. He never played the tabletop game either, though he did collect and paint countless miniatures. He played the Dawn of War series exclusively, read all the novels, and played Space Marine.

There is an entire generation of Warhammer 40K fans who have never associated the series with turn-based gameplay. Also, it became obvious at some point that he was unfamiliar with Warhammer not-40K. I asked him if he had any Warhammer stuff and he said "Umm... you think?". I explained "no, I mean the original Warhammer" (at the time, I didn't realize it was also called "Warhammer Fantasy" now), and when I eventually convinced him 40K wasn't the original Warhammer, he said it was gay.

I suppose chess takes no strategy then.

If anything turn based with an infinite time limit is more strategic than real time, because you don't have to rely on speed or skill, just pure strategy.

No, you're right on this one. Since we're including realism though, have you seen the guns these guys carry around? Too big, it's unreasonable. And HOW do they even move in that armor? You know what, that has to go too. While we're at it, space travel depiction is a little far-fetched and is more fantasy based than scientific in the W40k universe, so it should all take place on Earth. Okay, here's your game.

it's largely believed that entire ork race is made up of psykers, which basically means that whatever they believe in comes true, so if they believe something will work then it will not break down

Don't give them any ideas, you mention anything like "space-based ship made of guns" and they would make it and it would be 99% gun with some seats thrown in.

>>273133352

I had a weeklong game against my brother one time using 20k point armies of tyranids vs imperial guard and it was the most fun i ever had playing 40k. No way am i wasting the money required to make though armies legitimately.

Only time that wouldnt fly is tournaments or in-store, both of which are the most cancerous and unfun places to play any kind of warhammer.

But it is mary sue.

I've just opened up a few wikipedia pages and I'm confused as to why everything in this universe is screaming at me "EVERYTING SO POWERFUL AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

Like this emperor dude for example.

He's basically a faggot machine that has "thousands of sacrifices a day" which I can only imagine is him getting his necrotic dick sucked a thousand times a day so his consant orgasms can "combat the warp" or whatever that shit is.

Oh and warp travel is like "OH HURR 30 million of our gaiuse died in dis jump such dark, so edgy but it's our life ahhhhh so hardcore"

What the fuck is this series even about? did it's authors have some parental issues growing up or were they forced to listed to death metal growing up?

Why are you guys defending something that is the epitome of autism?

It's a stupid series that has gone meta on itself that it doesn't even know what is canon and not canon anymore.

I'm sure at some point back when I was a kid the tabletop game was cool and the lore or whatever was awesome kind of like how Sonic back in my teen years was alright as it was first coming out on the genesis but at some point in the 2000's you autistic little kiddies decided to take something simple and for children and turn it into this circlejerk of Overpowerednes for the sake of either 1. being funny but failing to do so or 2. trying to out edge the other edgemasters.

Very powerful, don't let the crude look fool you. These things have enough firepower to level metropolitan cities several times over, let alone fortresses. Couple that with being large enough on the inside to house a sizable Waaagh! and you got yourself a walking command center.
>>273135046
Because setting wise, this is the far future where entire planets are battlefields, some still being contested by different factions. When you're going against something as big as say an entire full scale Waaagh! or a Tyranid Hive Fleet, you need really, really big guns and vehicles that can stand up to it when digging in with millions of Imperial Guardsmen or having the backing of a Space Marine chapter isn't enough.

I'm telling you what you're pointing out isn't reffered to as "Mary Sue". That is not what that phrase mean, you can't use it in this context just because those are the only words you know when it comes to criticism of fiction.

I told you nicely twice already. I think you might be retarded.

>>273138938
It's supposed to be satire on grimdark settings that take themselves too seriously. The problem is that it seems to have forgotten that and the only satire in it is with the best race you can play orcs.

>>273140630
Yeah, while 'modern' 40K is somewhat more serious, the majority of fluff is still the setting taking the piss out of itself. For example, the destructive Ork Warlord of Armageddon, Mag Uruk Thraka is based on Margaret Thatcher. The rest of the setting is also deliberately taken to extremes of stupid grimdark grim darkness because hell, it's fucking cool.

>>273140661

Yeah, I can see how it wouldn't apply, especially if you want happy endings (40K isn't about how much you win, but how well you lose). Even so though, I think it's great if you're in the mood for glorious last stands, grim soldiers marching knowingly to their deaths, and the sheer massive scale of all the explosions.

>>273141035

Aside from Chess, I've never played any strategy TB games. And my RTS record consist only of Company of Heroes and Dawn of War (Which are pretty much the same game, although it's great).

They're one in the same. In high school back in 97' the gothic kids were the ones who sat in the corner of the commons that had all the florescent light bulbs out and it also happened to be next to the closest bathroom in between my classes.

They would just stare at me as I went into "their bathroom" and I think one of the fat chicks with all the chains on her jeans tried to put a hex on me once. They would also write slam and sad poetry and pretend like their lives were the most horrible thing ever.

It was hilarious to see some of them being picked up by their mothers or fathers who all looked like upstanding people that took care of their kids and paid attention to them.

Is that basically what the "edgy kids" are today?

It's not meant to last if GW ever moves to another medium. They'll have to be more realistic and taken down a notch in the "fabulous meter" in the same manner comic books were, once in animated series, and again in the cinema and realistic TV series.

>>273142745
Those massive prows are so the Imperial ship can survive ramming the enemy. Imperial doctrine also advises charging forward, soaking up fire with the armoured prow, before unleashing massive broadsides in the middle of the enemy fleet.

Remember: "Our prows are armoured because our sterns never face the enemy!"

>Land raider clearly can't even fit one fucking terminator.

The whole point of video game adaptions of tabletop games is to do what they can't. This scale is just dumb.

>>273142840

The biggest problem with 5th was the constant one-upmanship that seemed to plague the codexes. Each army that came out was far and away better than the previous army released. There were only a couple of exceptions.

I can't decide if it's cool or really pathetic.
At least there's no questioning that person's loyalty to the Emperor.

>>273143535
because it has actual (deep) gameplay(like most strategy games tend to have) that is fun

>>273142947

yeah I did. I'm a dumb. You put the word along side edgy and I didn't read my first post so I got confused.

>>273142902
I guess that makes sense. I thought however, that most of the space battles (according to the wikipedia page) take place using massive broadsides with their guns that are literally the size of a 50 story building.

well i guess this guy just confirmed that >>273143128


neat.

>>273136664
It works.

>>273143592

why should it be pathetic?
That man has a hobby and a passion and he's not unsure about it, he's proud of it. He does not care what heathens think he just does what he wants, and he wants to let everybody know that he fucking loves 40K.

>>273143683
it orks

>>273143592
I've gotten a lot of positive comments on it. Sadly though, mostly from people who never heard of WH40k.

>>273143610
Basically, 40K goes so retarded it spins back around to being strangely awesome.

>>273143610

Imperial navy strategy is a one or more of "shoot torpedoes the size of buildings at the enemy", "launch bombers to attack the enemy" and "drive at the enemy and get into close broadside range, especially if you can get into their rear arc."

Because, to fight green, you need two layers of power armor.

What about Malal?

>>273144165

He's non-cannon since the dude that owns the rights to the name left the company decades ago.

>>273137724
Tell me he's using some sort of a force field, because otherwise he could be killed by a single modern-day sniper, which is not good.

>>273144226
Who owns the rights then?

Fuck it, Imma make Malal themed army anyway, it's not like the renegade chaos gods are new, if someone spergs over it, I'll just call it chaos undivided.

>>273141183
>glorious last stands, grim soldiers marching knowingly to their deaths, and the sheer massive scale of all the explosions.
That's why I like 40K, and the shit that's like "even in death we serve". I like how extreme it needs to be.

>>273144390
Terminator armor has a shard of the Immortal God-Emperor of Mankind's armor that produces a forcefield. Also he could take quite a few bullets to the face naked anyway.

>Who owns the rights then?

No one knows, that's why he was dropped. There was a legal grey area over whether the writers owned it or whether GW owned it, so GW just said "fuck it" and dropped Malal. With the Sons of Malice making an appearance in newer works GW has hinted to the whole thing, but I don't know if they've ever changed their official stance on the 5th God.

Which was taken from the Roman Empire.
It's pretty interesting how nearly all Nazi iconography was tweaked symbols from past civilizations.
