I agree with you but having WHF highlights would be awesome him having the moments of struggling and finding it hard to relate to these fantasy peasants and their 'champions' for instance I would be very interested in how he became besties with Louencour's son.
Battlefleet Gothic is hilariously out of date.
Light speed weapons controlled by Machine Spirits give no fuck about the targets size.
And again you are hilariously out of date, since then they have released both a Cult Mechanicus Codex and a Adeptus Mechanicus Codex.
not to sound marrow-minded,but ive got a bone to pick with you- i dont find that line very Humerus!
Polygamy and polyamore are perfectly normal in Nehekharan culture, so they could have a political marriage without in impeding either of their lives all that much. That said, they could b e good friends and she's not unattractive when fully fleshed out.
Thank you, corrected.
Not... Exactly. There are reasons why members of the Light College all dress like ancient egyptian nobles.
To be fair, he's a millennia-old animated skeleton. It's truer in his case than in many others.
Hey! I know 5th. A bit. That was where they messed up the Norse to make them all Chaos all the time.
No, that was a genuine enquiry. 'Have I satisfied you or do you want more evidence?' not 'Have I satisfied you or are you a moron?'
You think a Dark Elf would be bothered by a dismantled human body? You think someone who survived a Marienburg public school would be?
Not in the short term. And pony mammaries are less impressive.
Thank you, corrected.
Still canon and a reflection of the truth of space combat in the setting.
"Instantly" in this case would be "within an hour, because that's how long it takes for ships to maneuver and target their capital weapons in 40k". Also, said Necron tombship would be multiple kilometers long, compared to Zoat being under 2m.
Machine spirits are inaccurate as fuck. They're worse than biological humans are at aiming guns. Witness the performance of Land Raiders and their machine-spirit rules in older editions (5+ to hit vs 3+ to hit for elite human troops), or the performance of Cognis weapons in 8th Edition (allowing them to fire with a -2 penalty after advancing). More to the point, however, is the fact that in BFG, lances can't shoot at things like fighters or torpedoes - and even when they're shooting at multi-kilometer ships, there's a decent chance they'll miss.
And nothing in them contradicts them, IIRC. Warp-tech (aside from patterns inherited from the DAoT) is the domain of the Dark Mechanicus or heretical sub-sects of the Mechanicus as a whole - building something like, say, a sword that channels warp energy into the people it hits is tech-heresy.
Or they figure out that his Ring is tech rather than magic, and send in the Chaos Space Marines or Dark Mechanicus to deal with Paul while their mortal followers deal with the natives.
Early canon had the Old World as a world in the 40k galaxy, where the Chaos Gods had a galaxy full of heretics to draw upon. Modern canon has it as being located in an alternate universe but connected through the Warp/Realm of Chaos.
They first met when Mallobaude was a Questing Knight. He was trying to chase down the Dark Elves raiding the coast and came upon the SI having already done so. Seeing unrighteous devilry he challenged the SI, who first tried to talk him down and then defeated him as gently as he could. Their next meeting was some time later, after he completed his Grail Quest and was depressed at finding the whole thing to be a charade. The SI gave him an impassioned lecture on virtue ethics and secular humanism and he grabbed onto it like a drowning man to a lifeline.
The one thing I like about the End Times is that the Chaos Gods don't really care about the Warhammer setting. It's one planet. They've got billions of others.
Thank you, corrected.
I don't know. What is wrong with Dutch schools?
Just remembered: there are actually at least two cat women in Altdorf, were the SI inclined to head that way.
Um. There's only one more after 40k and I haven't named it yet. So no.
No, neither.
Ah well, time enough for that in the future then.
You don't know that the 40k one didn't get the yellow ring.
I'm not familiar enough with them to know if they're even sane enough for the argument to hit, but I know Paul's argument to them would be along the lines of "In a world without the threat of extinction, power will inevitably consolidate into the hands of those who do not age"
Can you explain what's up with those? I've never seen them mentioned before this thread.
The SI did a lot of things, and only commented on the really visible stuff.
My comment wasn't entirely serious.
I prefer the earlier version of the tau, so that's what I'll be going with. I like tau being the equivalent of the humans in a Lovecraft story: basically decent and sensible people suddenly in way over their heads in confrontation with the true horrors of the universe. Read Fire Warrior if you want to see what they were like.
Not for the individual ork. The person I was replying to suggested that if they had to go to 40k they'd pipck ork for their species.
The SI doesn't know.
No, that's all the detail Warhammer Armies: Dogs of War provides us.
Actually it's not, it was quietly retconned like a bunch of other stuff from the super early books.
The more you say the more it's obvious you are operating on information so out of date it's from a point in time where Squats were still canon.
Making that sort of claim when you haven't even read the relevant books is hilarious.
