That's fricking stupid. The whole point was big E was so livid at Horus he wanted him wiped from existence in every sense.
Don't worry anon, Abnett also included several more bumfrick OCs rushing in to help the Emperor.
Also Erebus kills Loken.
What did they end up doing with the lone guardsman sacrificing himself for big E?
What stpud bullshit did they replace that with?
I'm ignoring most of the HH anyways
Oh boy, that's a fun one.
Ollanius Pius was actually secretly a Perpetual who was 45,000 years old (therefore older than the Emperor) and was actually a super special soldier who fought in every war ever and was a devout catholic.

Abnett legitimately pushes the idea that Abaddon is actually a hero who's championing the rights of Marines and that he's smarter and stronger than the Chaos Gods themselves, going so far as to say that Abaddon will become the fifth and strongest Chaos God who the four others will bow to and worship.
At this point it has to be literal mental illness.

It was a decision made for Owlcat by Games Workshop. Then again, why would you want to romance a power-armored battle nun? Least you could do is pine for one of the non-militant orders, like the Sisters Hospitaller.
Horus NTRed the Emperor by fricking the galaxy
Frick is it with you Manuels and your obsession with NTR?
Order Pronatus? Okay, point taken. If she was still part of the Order of Our Martyred Lady then I'd disagree. Still no Order Hospitaller though. Those girls are absolute wife material.
Realistically if the Emperor was up and walking around he'd tell these dumb b***hes to stop wasting their superior genetics on abstinence and start breeding stronger warriors for the good of the Imperium. He'd think them selfish for wasting time on useless acts of worship when they could be contributing bodies.
This isn't the age of apostasy. They don't believe they're brides of the EMPS. The real issue is she doesn't want to stop hating heresy long enough to consider love.
"Imagine elantach: to send all the duties and allegiancies to hell, go rogue (heh), take over the Fellowship of the Void and become truly free. Sail and plunder for our own sake, striking fear into our enemies. You will be the top dog and I'll be your second in command, your fiery lieutenant, your wild animal" Says Yrliet as she crawls onto the Lord Captain's table, strain of saliva drooling from her mouth.
She was the only one I kinda wanted to romance. I've been nothing but a dick to Cassia. Jae is lucky I haven't kicked her off the ship yet and I killed Yrilet for being xeno scum.
My bromance with Abelard and Heinrix is enough.
Because she looks like she has fetal alcohol syndrome. She has the facial features of someone who posts on twitter 13 hours straight every day.
Why does every artist draw her so fricking ugly?
She's hideous and every time the game tries to railroad me into calling her beautiful, I want to vomit. It's railroad-y enough without the pig-nosed bleedy-eyed mutant walking around wearing little skirts and shit asking >am i kawaaaiii lord captansan
Quit being a gross needy mutant and steer my ship through the void, holy shit.
Anyone else think the ending was sudden and underwhelming? What happened to the craftworld the eldar called in? Why don't I get to learn more about Nomos, especially after he consumed the ctan?
>What happened to the craftworld the eldar called in?
Alaitoc is a major named Craftworld in the setting. If it was included in anything but a few ending slides it would have thrashed everybody in the sector.
Even with my pet C'tan, space wolf pack, support of the imperial navy (before they call me a heretic), explorator fleet, navigator house, and the power of friendship? Plus my 200+ persuasion skill?
Yes. They'd need to summon their Avatar to deal with Nomos but they would win.
Assuming you were friendly with the Eldar beforehand, Alaitoc would just send Rangers to go pick up Crudarach's survivors and call it a day.
Avatars of Khaine lose to fricking Space Marines, they're the biggest jobbers in the entire setting.
The only time an Avatar has ever done anything even remotely impressive was in that one Ciaphas Cain book, and that was basically just a joke on the names (Cain got saved by Khaine).
Otherwise Avatars exist solely to job.
I dont remember the name of the story. But there was one where a few groups had been racing to get a macguffin, all the while the slow ones kept disapearing with the planets going dark. In the climax of the story its revealed that an Avatar of Khaine has been moving towards the macguffin, and been wiping out anything that has gotten in its way like a force of nature.
Would they spend that much troops just for the sake of vengence tho? And it's not like only Koronus requires their attention, galaxy and webway is fricked up more than usual.
Also, do the endings and Yrliet's dialogue imply that Alaitoc would get to attacking Koronus slower than (optional) Imperial Crusade? In Imperium Nihilus? Lmao
Them committing is stupid yes, but if they do a backwater like Koronus would lose.
People forget that we are in a sparsely populated frontier no one actually important cares about.

Alaitoc is specifically the Craftworld with the most Rangers. They wouldn't waste time on big drawn out battles and would instead just sabotage and ambush key areas and places until the dynasty was weak enough to ensure a win in open war.
This isn't even considering the possibility of other Craftworlds catching wind of the situation and joining in.
>explorators and navigators turning against you >like they fricking do >elves gunning for you >imps gunning for you >chaos inevitably gunning for you >rak'gol gunning for you >yu'vath coming back >orks joining the scrap because why the frick wouldn't they >possible nid invasion as well
I don't understand how you fricks expect a happy ending in this.
That anon's moronic, you wouldn't even need Nomos. Eldar are weak as shit and have never won an actual major conflict, and most minor one they win are with absurdly high losses. By the end of the game you could probably solo the entire Craftworld with just your retinue.
In the ending where Pasqal gets to discontinue Yrliet it's said that she was a leader of a group. But Aspect Warriors, which Yrliet becomes, are by no means leaders of anything. So what does that imply for Yrliet? If she'd become Exarch that wouldn't really be Yrliet, as they are basically collective personality bearing the name of original Exarch. Has she quit Path of the Warrior by that point? Would she be leader of Guardian squad then? Or would she become Seer or even Autarch?
While we're on that point, what Aspect Warrior woul Yrliet be? Dire Avenger?
Thanks, worked. Here are the questions in case anyone is curious.
It's just her answering the stuff she didn't want to before + the old dialogue options after you ask about if it's her kin raiding the expanse. This was meant to open up earlier I guess, since soulstone lore + some other shit was already explained by her.
GW hates space elves. Gav Thrope the guy that wrote most of their nu-lore despises them and wants to see them lose.
They also retconned all eldar x human shit aside from Darkies raping, because he seethes at LOTR Aragorn and Arwen. Also because of that elf x human shit was retconned from warhammer fantasy.

Always found it weird that Warhammer is so popular in wargaming. You would think that massive franchise like Star Wars would absolutely dominate near-toy market too. Given how massive Star Wars was, even if it's fans in majority don't want to put effort into assembling, kitbashing, sculpting, converting and painting, there should still be far more of them. None of my irl friends would hear of Warhammer if not for me, so I couldn't believe how massive Warhammer and GW is in tabletop wargaming. Especially since far more people know and like historical settings like WW2, so I at least expected those to be more popular.

Low entry level. Yeah despite the prices and plenty of efforts to finish your first army Warhammer is still one of the most newcomer-friendly wargames, because almost any LGS (local gaming store) will have 40k demo (and don't forget GW have it's own pretty huge network of stores). They also sells (for overprice of course, but newcomer doesn't know it yet) nearly a full range of hobby accessories, from contrast paint, glue, cutters, airbrushes and paintsets (box with 1-3 minist, 2 brushes and several paints which are required to make battle-ready paintjob)

women really just want a man with power. littel does she know that calcazar is not a biomancer so no horse wiener, no impregnation on demand, no orgasms for hours and no instant refractory time. Jimmy won. Calcazar lost
Did you know that there are Warp Gate in Koronus that leads to Jericho Reach, which is literally on the other side of the galaxy. It makes Expanse available to Tau. This means Owlcat might add Tau stuff.
Also, why the frick FFG added Tau PC in Rogue Trader TTRPG, but never added Eldar Outcasts PCs? This is mon-keigh behaviour
>Yrliet loses her memory >spends some time with Rogue Trader >starts regaining tidbits of memory >"Elantach what happened betweem us?" >"Oh yeah, we totally fricked" >Yrliet dies inside
What do you guys think is GWS's ultimate plan for 40k's lore? I think the Emperor's body will die and he will be reincarnated as a Warp God with his own "daemons" (angels), except he will be a God of positive emotions (hope, love, charity, justice etc).
Question for loregays: I know crone worlds are where soulstones are harvested, but how hard is it to find one?
Seems dumb that this is never brought up here since Yrliet was present with broken soulstone and while she did give extra info and talked to Aeldari she didn't say "Hey wait let's search for one while we're here" or ask the clowns to get one for her. If it's not that hard to find one seems like a massive plot hole.
Reminder there were soulstones in the Reaving Tempest spire and Eklendyl immediately found one to put the chess piece soul into. Yet no one thought to look for more and keep them for any other time you might need one, like how you just "mercy"killed the tortured joined farseers without bothering to put their souls into one so their souls don't get eaten immediately. Or how there's no way to even try and get Muaran or Eklendyl or Nocturne to help Yrliet. The more you think about this stuff the more obvious it is they didn't think it through.
The early parts of her romance were more interesting with the meditation and the more spiritual and poetic ways of looking at the world. It just turns her into 100% dumb teen tragic waifu halfway through the game.
They shouldn't have included any eldar at all. Was nothing but a colossal waste of time and resources, cumrag fricking sucked and yrlishite is a waste of a companion slot.
It's hard and dangerous, but not neccessarily nearly impossible. In Path of the Outcast novel group of outcast and their harlequin guides go to one of the most dangerous crone worlds to get a bunch of stones (harlequins wanted it to be dangerous). What's unclear is how much spiritstone output different worlds have and if some don't have any.
But in general Yrliet spiritstone thing is kinda stupid, yeah. Also, it's possible to get empty stone not directly from Crone Worlds, if someone else brought it from there.
Thanks for the info, out of curiosity did anyone bring up these glaring plotholes to the devs or the community managers that get brought up?
Seems pretty damn glaring how a plot hole like this could exist.
Forgot to add: Wondering if there's a chance that they do a touch up to her so she gets a quest to do it or at least ending slides saying it was resolved if you allied with Eldar

here's a thing, the producer for the game, Shestov, used to dm for me many years ago. and he's the type of dm that sometimes choses to forgo universe logic to fit a cool narrative, so you're shit out of luck. That said I don't know how much influence a producer has over writing and whether he can tell writers to change a narrative or to rework it, so I don't know if it was his vision or the writer's

Most characters have moments of schizo writing probably caused by writers not talking to each other, I imagine with how rushed everything was they didn't care too much about logic and consistency.

They have a basic idea of what Chaos is.
Before Cadia fell they thought Chaos Daemons were just ultra-hostile aliens but afterwards they ran into Chaos enough to recognize it for what it is, i.e psychic predators who are worshipped by spiky humans.
There were Tau player characters is orgininal ttrpg. I've already wrote about it in this thread, there is a warp gate through which tau can get to Koronus

i'd wager that her hair takes longer to do. the dress despite looking very ornate isn't that hard to put on especially when you have dozens of maids to help you
how does that even happen? usually if abelard dies the entire party is fricked, back when i took him to act 3 i never had that problem because he was always the last guy standing
also do we even know if the slide is from not healing the debuff or just going to commorragh at all?
So all those people with prosthetics. They replace their limbs after unfortunate accidents, right? They don't just chop off their limbs to get a metal arm, r-right?
He barges in even before his quest is complete, they aren't related. It's to show what's to come later in his romance, it'll be mentioned. Doesn't happen without it
Yeah, in act 4, when you first arrive at Footfall and go behind chorda's brains'n'cheese, a cutscene triggers near the el cazador's place with the guard. Heinrix asks you to wait, he approaches the guards, guard boy say "no one's allowed inside even (you)", Heinrix then kills him for this and proceeds inside, then comes back without saying much. There's a check for something that I don't remember, maybe his mercy/harsh global attitude or his romance-heresy counter, when you ask him if he's proud for what he's done to the boy. He then replies with either 0 fricks given if harsh, or says what he temporarily lost control of his sanctioning and doesn't really understand what just happened.
Honestly the whole scene is a really good touch for his char development and should be there even without his romance imo.
>should be there even without his romance imo.
but he doesn't lose control of his powers if you're not in a relationship. It's only because he starts asking himself uncomfortable questions is why that shit is happening
what does the soul trap do exactly that makes it different? was wondering if you could use one to substitute for a soulstone if you were really desperate
You totally could, mon..., Rogue Trader. I am volunteering my soul trap to keep my cousin's soul safe for the time being. It's gonna be fine, I promise
but functionally could you use a soul trap to "save" a soul and put it in a soulstone later, or repurpose it so it doesn't have whatever makes it evil? just felt weird that soulstones are so rare but these things are everywhere and hold souls too

Janus has 1, then the dinner, then cumrag has 2 different mutually exclusive flags, then his incident on Footfall also should give you another flag, and there was probably something else which I don't remember
he kept doing it in act 3
yes jimi i know you hate xenos
no jimi i won't kill the xenos
no jimi not this one either
yes jimi i know you got tortured so did i i'm still keeping the xenos
pic related always made me wonder how many spacemarines there are. There have to be A LOT otherwise it could be pheasable to just run at them with rusty spoons. There are figuratively infinite humans/demons/xenos and only a finite amount of angels of the emperor. Wouldn't a million Termagants be a better strategy to kill a squad of space marines over a hivetyrant or something equally big?
I don't think you understand, even in RAW that space marine is probably not in any danger
a GEQ suad going toe-to-toe with even one MEQ is basically hoping to win in death by 1000 cuts but the reality is that the MEQ will probably rip through them, especially if it has something like a chainsword
Supposedly about a million space marines. Since there are about a 1000 chapters of at maximum 1000 members. But that number only works if every chapter is codex compliant, which we know a lot arent, like the Black Templar who might have about 16k marines, and the Dark Angels who will kill you for even asking.
Also the 1k chapters is definitly a highly conservative number, since those are the active chapters that are certified and easy enough to contact to count.
Yes. This is why you should never underestimate the power of a lasgun. It might make just a dent in the ceramite but when you've got a thousand Guardsmen shooting at you, with tens of thousands more in reserve, you're going down. This is why the Traitor Legions always get BTFOed. Doesn't matter how badass and chaos-empowered you are, the Imperium can throw innumerable Guardsmen, Basilsks and Leman Russes against you and win by attrition. All it takes is a few lucky lasbolts into your optics or throat plate, an Ogryn to grab you, stand too close to indirect fire or take a 120mm round to your chest and a Space Marine drops like a chump.

Space Marines are nowhere near as strong as memes make them out to be. Limit of 1000 marines per chapter was always nonsensical, it always falls aparat in any simulation, be it video or a tabletop game and book authors ignore it as well.
>Limit of 1000 marines per chapter was always nonsensical
what is the exact wordking though? If it's vague enough you couldalways lawyer it into "1000 combat ready space marines", and have like 200000 more "in training"
The Black Templars, effectively do that by claiming that since they have been in a unending crusade since the chapters founding, they arent breaking any rules despite having a lot more Marines than any chapter legally should.
The problem with "simulations" is that it's really fricking hard to simulate the kind of reaction times, communications, coordination and just sheer cohesion a force of Space Marines is capable of between their augmentations, sensory equipment and sheer ludicrous amount of training and experience. Then you add in the sheer concentration of firepower and resilience and you end up with something that is far greater than the sum of its parts.
Yes, a squad of ten Marines may struggle against a full company of Guardsmen with heavy weapons support etc. But they'll tear through a platoon so fast the neighbouring units will have barely any time to react. And they can do THAT over and over with those advantages up above if they are given any kind of room to maneuver, because they're just going to be constantly inside the OODA loop of a "mortal" opposing force.
You don't see that simulated well because it is, frankly, pretty damn hard TO simulate that kind of thing. (This is also why for example soviet-style forces tend to perform better in wargames than in practice - the impact of western-style unit initiative and independence is actually pretty hard to simulate in command exercises.) Also it'd be an pretty unfun thing to be up against in any kind of game because playing the OPFOR means you basically don't get to actually do much unless the opponent screws up or has a truly awful starting position.
The closest I've seen trying to depict it in a 40k setting is the "squad mode" rules for the Deathwatch TTRPG, under which a cohesive fireteam of Marines will essentially treat entire squads and platoons of cultists or guardsmen as little more than speed bumps.
Some perspective, anon;
A typical Lasgun wielded by a typical guardsman in 40k is represented as firing 1-2 shots, hitting 50% of the time (4+) with no outside factors, having a relative strength of 3 (Whereas a Guardsman's toughness is 3, and a Marine's is 4), having no armor penetration (0AP), and dealing '1' damage (Normal troops and such have 1 wound, Marines have 2).
Marine armor is good enough to 'save' (block) normal damage 2/3rds of the times (3+ save).
The keys to this are the 0 AP and the 3+ save. And entire squad of Guardsman can fire shots off and not cause a single wound, or they might pop off and wipe a 5-man squad of Marines.
It's why most Guardsmen squads carry around Meltas and Plasma guns.
Yes. Anyone who doesn't understand how strong the lasgun has never faced an entire wall of lasguns. Imagine every other second your armor melting away.
>several lasguns firing superheated beams almost continuosly, hundreds of shots per clip >surprised when it can compromise even marine armor
The lasgun is done really dirty by being shown side by side with very scary shit
Space Marines aren't as impressive as some of the BL books make them out to be.
The modern US military could probably wipe out a chapter of 1000 of them in a straight up-fight, even without resorting to WoMDs.
Would unironically make it easier (bigger targets for missiles etc. to hit).
The one exception would be a decent sized starship, which would probably have a checkmate just because space isn't militarized.
You forget how much bullshit their enhancements give them. A butt naked marine could sneak their way into every seat of goverment and kill every leader.
Give them equipment and they walk over everyone, and I'm sure they could get normal people to defect to them and act like the guard
I simply don't see what answer something like a Rhino has for a BVR missile.
40K combat is incredibly short range and stationary compared to real life.
I don't think it has anything to do with routes. those are just flavour of the moment, they don't actually influence the outcome and don't lock each other out, so you can confuse him even farther by first bullying him and then patting his head for being a good boy
>says that he loves you >says it again after the ice sculpture incident >you can tease him that it only took him almost dying to say that despite him already having said that before
literally unplayable
Chaos doesn't ignore them, they find them really hard to locate.
Some Tau have been corrupted already and the more psychicly active races in the alliance are acting like a back door for chaos bullshit
Think about it like this. If an Eldar soul is like a giant bonfire, then a Human soul is like a campfire and a Tau soul is like a candle. The bonfire attracts a lot more attention than the campfire, but the candle might not even be seen.
Mix of both. Tau souls are incredibly small, so they have very little presence in the Warp. As such they have no psykers, and psychic abilities actually have less dway on them. On top of that their methods of transport don't involve Warp Travel, so they have no real experience with Chaos. That changed when they reverse-engineered a Warp drive and one of their Expansion Spheres tried to do a Warp Jump with no gellar field. The Tau on board were fine but the auxilaries were immediately assaulted by daemons.
This led to that sphere executing many of their surviving auxilaries once they finished the jump.
Tau as a whole have some vague knowledge of Chaos, but primarily only through Human cults, who they've just deemed as groups of delusional lunatics.
They barely have souls so Chaos usually ignores them.

Small souls must mean they have big breasts to make up for it right?

He says he saved the Crudarach survivors and made a strong alliance with them, and says he also suffered his losses, while gripping a wraithbone amulet that if you pass a hard Xenos test you recognize is a love token.
I know. I always want more party members. Even increasing cap to 8 would be nice. Can't stand when crpgs have smaller squads than 6. At least with toybox you can manually add companions, but that completely fricks with balance.
You people think we have it bad now, but just you wait - they're gonna release books about the two forgotten legions, and then you'll now how good we had it
It's funny that you think the ones in charge of 40k now have any inclination whatsoever to encourage OC.
40k is about Primarchs now. Lion and Angron were the last nail in the coffin.
Nobody cares about the non big 4 primarchs
Once they bring back Leman and Sanguinus the rest are whatever

After the sales for Lion, nah. They'll push out every Primarch just to keep wringing money out. HH fans are fricking rabid for them.
That eldar gay should be cute psycho succubi, fricking owlcat you had one job. And how the frick you max heretic in this game? I finish it at 4 heretic and click every heretic path I could minus foulstone.

that's right, know your place
I agonized over doing the right thing with Idira - giving her to Heinrix because I felt guilty betraying a Theodora’s confidante. Thankfully Argenta helped me.
I think i've figured out what prevented idira and argenta from becoming friends in my game. It was Jimmy all along. During idira's quest he's the one who speaks up against putting on the device, and argenta stays silent. Could this be it?
It's probably the fact that idira is an open vessel for demonic warp energies and argenta is a devout nun of the adepta sororitas and specifically the orders militant which crusades against demonic entities and warp powers.
The only places I had them together was >Cumrag, Told Idira not to Shoot Argenta >Idira quest, Argenta said something but don't know if it changed anything >Argenta quest, when Argenta returned with the Armor, Idira revealed that Argenta's prayers quell the daemonic voices and Idira would like to be around her more often.
I then had Fire ending for Argenta and Humanity ending for Idira.
>tfw just realized that I'm no longer on Daring and instead playing on hardest difficulty level. >I put it on many hours ago to check out how balance will look like if I play with bigger party >Ultimately I decided against bigger party because momentum mechanic completely shits itself with more party members
I forgot to switch back to Daring since I felt no difference. All this time I thought I'm on Daring and not Unfair.
Yeah, Daring to Unfair isn't that big of a difference.
The shitty guns that do 0 in Daring just do 1-2 in Unfair.
Big attacks either 1 shot you or get cucked by your armor stacking same as they would on Daring.
Enemy HP bloat is annoying until you get your builds going, then it doesn't matter.
The only real difference is skill penalties but they changed that a few patches ago now.
Does destroying the machine on Commorragh that prevents Slaanesh from invading do permanent damage to the Drukhari or would it just be a (albeit costly) annoyance in the long run?
Cumrag is the size of a solar system. You are atmost permanently ruining an area the size of earth.
Though it might make it slightly easier for demons to invade later down the line.
You don't want to NTR the Emperor, trust me bro
Horus NTRed the Emperor by fricking the galaxy
Yeah and what happened to Horus?
And E deleted him.
Emperor's daughter, not Emperor's bride. Frickin heretic.
Daughter, wife and soulmate
See
It's not just that they are daughter bride is specifically prohibited
The sisters of battle are very explicitly not permitted to be the bride's of the emperor
This means Argenta suffers from unrequited love. Tragic
Then explain Celestine, literally the Emperor's waifu
she's not his waifu. more like a creepy stalker. He only had one waifu and he's dead now
Yeah, people forget the emperor is a massive homo
malcador is the coolest dude
Isn’t Urda still kicking around?
Pretty sure she was killed off by Erebus. With a magic knife and some demons.
Abnett's already retconned Horus' death. Retconning Erda's would be easy for him.
Is Horus no longer dead? Or are you just talking about the clone-Horus?
Horus was originally perma-obliterated by the Emperor, with his soul being utterly removed from existence.
Now he's just normal dead, which is very easy to remedy because Chaos lmao.
What about Sanguinius?
Already was in the process of coming back. Soul currently split in two, one part being the Sanguinor and the other haunting the Vengeful Spirit, ironically as a vengeful spirit.
Don't worry anon, Abnett also included several more bumfrick OCs rushing in to help the Emperor.
Also Erebus kills Loken.
Oh boy, that's a fun one.
Ollanius Pius was actually secretly a Perpetual who was 45,000 years old (therefore older than the Emperor) and was actually a super special soldier who fought in every war ever and was a devout catholic.
>Oh boy, that's a fun one.
>Ollanius Pius was actually secretly a Perpetual who was 45,000 years old (therefore older than the Emperor) and was actually a super special soldier who fought in every war ever and was a devout catholic.
Ok, abnett need an expedited retirement consisting of short noose
I swear the only way for Abnett to redeem himself, is if he goes balls to the walls, and reveal some crazy shit like the entirety of the HH being a massive trick by Malal, to frick over both chaos and order.
You know what? Frick Abnett. That shit is all fanfiction anyway.
>Now he's just normal dead, which is very easy to remedy because Chaos lmao.
That's fricking stupid. The whole point was big E was so livid at Horus he wanted him wiped from existence in every sense.
What did they end up doing with the lone guardsman sacrificing himself for big E?
What stpud bullshit did they replace that with?
I'm ignoring most of the HH anyways
They made him a Perpetual that was even older than Emps who fought in every single human conflict and was also the last Catholic in the galaxy.
I hate GW for approving this, I hate BL for publishing this. This is worse than bringing back Horus
K.
Fully ignoring this shit.
Not canon.
The sacrifice of a lone guardsman to get the Emperor to react againts fricking chaos empowered Horus had meaning. How can Abnett have fallen so fricking hard since the original inquisition books and the ghosts?
Abnett legitimately pushes the idea that Abaddon is actually a hero who's championing the rights of Marines and that he's smarter and stronger than the Chaos Gods themselves, going so far as to say that Abaddon will become the fifth and strongest Chaos God who the four others will bow to and worship.
At this point it has to be literal mental illness.
I swear to god, reading gaunt and inquisition he's not this moronic. He makes shit up yes, but not on this level of moronation.
You know there were signs. He made the characters too overpowered and shit in the Gaunt books. Didnt think he would escalate the powerlevels so much though while writing the HH though
I think it might all be a big joke he's doing since there's apparently a point in the fight where Horus and the Emperor play a fricking literal psychic card game.
I really hope it turns out that Abnett is infact Warhammers greatest shitposter.
I mean that was clear as soon as the Eisenhorn Trilogy was done.
That one was him just making stories about fun art from the Dark Heresy books.
Then Ravenor came out and it's him fricking around for half of the trilogy.
Then the Bequin books, which I don't even know if he finished writing them, was him phoning it in all the way.
He was just done.
I hate to be like this... But I don't think it's a shitpost, I think it all went to his head after writing some of the most loved books in 40k and now he must be suffering from yes-man syndrome, everyone just greenlights whatever he fricking gives them.
Eisenhorn and Ravenor were really good, Bequin is weird as shit and the whole king in yellow is just full OC donutsteal homosexualry
THIS FRICKER LEAD 13 CRUSADES AND FAILED TO TAKE A PLANET! HIS BEST ACCOMPLISHMENT WAS ACCIDENTALLY SPLITTING THE GALAXY IN HALF WITH WARP BULLSHIT! WHICH HE NEVER INTENDED TO DO!
And according to a CCain book, it was all a partly distraction, so they could steal a Necron artifact. Which also failed humiliatingly.
>the last Catholic in the galaxy.
ignoring the perpetual shit
the premise of the last catholic in a reality where the god emperor cult and chaos exist sounds super interesting
he's probably one of the cool catholics not the Black person feet kissing catholics, so he sees the emperor is the second messiah
Think Catholic with massive asterisks, like the last Church on Terra was dedicated to a fricking rock and was ran by a dude that was the only survivor of Emps destroying Franc.
thats lame as frick
nah son give me Straight up Roman catholics fighting off the god emperor cult and chaos at the same time
VIVA CRISTO REY!!!
It would be interesting to have something like that, a human faction with a religion that isn't Imperial Creed or Chaos worship
Erebus probably killed her
We don't see him do it, mind you, but he was about to and she's such a hated character that I don't think GW or any BL author will bother bringing her back, even if it gives Erebus a very notable win
Got mega killed.
Pissed off the author a lot because some other guy wrote the murder.
She deserved it.
she was a dumb roastie, not a waifu
she's a dumb bimbo, what do you want from her?
Know No Heresy should have been a forced talent on her that you simply can not change through any means

It was a decision made for Owlcat by Games Workshop. Then again, why would you want to romance a power-armored battle nun? Least you could do is pine for one of the non-militant orders, like the Sisters Hospitaller.
Frick is it with you Manuels and your obsession with NTR?
Argenta IS non-militant
Order Pronatus? Okay, point taken. If she was still part of the Order of Our Martyred Lady then I'd disagree. Still no Order Hospitaller though. Those girls are absolute wife material.
Why would you NOT want to romance a power-armored battle nun?
Realistically if the Emperor was up and walking around he'd tell these dumb b***hes to stop wasting their superior genetics on abstinence and start breeding stronger warriors for the good of the Imperium. He'd think them selfish for wasting time on useless acts of worship when they could be contributing bodies.
>and start breeding stronger warriors for the good of the Imperium.
Jimmy doing God's work when resigning from the inquisition then. Literally
>Jimmy doing God's
Is that fricking heresy I see?
no. emperor needs more loyal citizens,so jimmy's doing his best to procreate
Can't they make test tube babies anyway?
This isn't the age of apostasy. They don't believe they're brides of the EMPS. The real issue is she doesn't want to stop hating heresy long enough to consider love.
Contrived reason to prevent the most obvious and popular target of player romance to not be romanceable.
>prevent...to not be romanceable
I think you fricked it up there anon.
Yes, my bad. english hard.

What kind of Harlequin would Yrliet be?
She doesn't need a costume to be a clown
Normal Player. She isn't smart enough to be a Shadowseer and her sense of humor is so dead she could never be a Death Jester.
The one whose jokes all end with monkeigh.
fill in the blanks
Imagine if in Cummoragh you could've push Yrliet to becoming Drukhari. Her romance flags being "WildAnimal" and "DocilePet". The irony
"Imagine elantach: to send all the duties and allegiancies to hell, go rogue (heh), take over the Fellowship of the Void and become truly free. Sail and plunder for our own sake, striking fear into our enemies. You will be the top dog and I'll be your second in command, your fiery lieutenant, your wild animal" Says Yrliet as she crawls onto the Lord Captain's table, strain of saliva drooling from her mouth.
Why does this cute image keep crashing my browser?

They will charge 60 dollars for that in dlc form
She was the only one I kinda wanted to romance. I've been nothing but a dick to Cassia. Jae is lucky I haven't kicked her off the ship yet and I killed Yrilet for being xeno scum.

>I've been nothing but a dick to Cassia
How could you be a dick to our fish?!
Why does every artist draw her so fricking ugly?
Because she is
No u
she is supposed to be fugly mutant
She is ugly, that's the price paid for humanity to be amongst the stars
Because she looks like she has fetal alcohol syndrome. She has the facial features of someone who posts on twitter 13 hours straight every day.
She's hideous and every time the game tries to railroad me into calling her beautiful, I want to vomit. It's railroad-y enough without the pig-nosed bleedy-eyed mutant walking around wearing little skirts and shit asking
>am i kawaaaiii lord captansan
Quit being a gross needy mutant and steer my ship through the void, holy shit.
Anyone else think the ending was sudden and underwhelming? What happened to the craftworld the eldar called in? Why don't I get to learn more about Nomos, especially after he consumed the ctan?
>What happened to the craftworld the eldar called in?
Alaitoc is a major named Craftworld in the setting. If it was included in anything but a few ending slides it would have thrashed everybody in the sector.
Even with my pet C'tan, space wolf pack, support of the imperial navy (before they call me a heretic), explorator fleet, navigator house, and the power of friendship? Plus my 200+ persuasion skill?
Yes. They'd need to summon their Avatar to deal with Nomos but they would win.
Assuming you were friendly with the Eldar beforehand, Alaitoc would just send Rangers to go pick up Crudarach's survivors and call it a day.
Avatars of Khaine lose to fricking Space Marines, they're the biggest jobbers in the entire setting.
The only time an Avatar has ever done anything even remotely impressive was in that one Ciaphas Cain book, and that was basically just a joke on the names (Cain got saved by Khaine).
Otherwise Avatars exist solely to job.
I dont remember the name of the story. But there was one where a few groups had been racing to get a macguffin, all the while the slow ones kept disapearing with the planets going dark. In the climax of the story its revealed that an Avatar of Khaine has been moving towards the macguffin, and been wiping out anything that has gotten in its way like a force of nature.
Yes. They have millions of eldar troops.
Would they spend that much troops just for the sake of vengence tho? And it's not like only Koronus requires their attention, galaxy and webway is fricked up more than usual.
Also, do the endings and Yrliet's dialogue imply that Alaitoc would get to attacking Koronus slower than (optional) Imperial Crusade? In Imperium Nihilus? Lmao
Them committing is stupid yes, but if they do a backwater like Koronus would lose.
People forget that we are in a sparsely populated frontier no one actually important cares about.
Alaitoc is specifically the Craftworld with the most Rangers. They wouldn't waste time on big drawn out battles and would instead just sabotage and ambush key areas and places until the dynasty was weak enough to ensure a win in open war.
This isn't even considering the possibility of other Craftworlds catching wind of the situation and joining in.
They'd probably attack stealthy and suddenly in hit and runs in typical eldar fashion, rather than wage total war
>explorators and navigators turning against you
>like they fricking do

I don't understand how you fricks expect a happy ending in this.
That anon's moronic, you wouldn't even need Nomos. Eldar are weak as shit and have never won an actual major conflict, and most minor one they win are with absurdly high losses. By the end of the game you could probably solo the entire Craftworld with just your retinue.
In the ending where Pasqal gets to discontinue Yrliet it's said that she was a leader of a group. But Aspect Warriors, which Yrliet becomes, are by no means leaders of anything. So what does that imply for Yrliet? If she'd become Exarch that wouldn't really be Yrliet, as they are basically collective personality bearing the name of original Exarch. Has she quit Path of the Warrior by that point? Would she be leader of Guardian squad then? Or would she become Seer or even Autarch?
While we're on that point, what Aspect Warrior woul Yrliet be? Dire Avenger?
I don't really like the class system in this game, it's far less complex than Pathfinder.
>far less complex than Pathfinder
And it's a good thing bro
Is the Yrliet dialogue "Am I still unworthy to talk about your kin" bugged? Seems weird she wouldn't after Commorragh and my RT romancing her.
Yes
Yes, here is the apparent fix. Change this value to 2 with toybox.
Thanks, worked. Here are the questions in case anyone is curious.
It's just her answering the stuff she didn't want to before + the old dialogue options after you ask about if it's her kin raiding the expanse. This was meant to open up earlier I guess, since soulstone lore + some other shit was already explained by her.
Honest question, why is Eldar 'lore' so fricking garbage?
GW hates space elves. Gav Thrope the guy that wrote most of their nu-lore despises them and wants to see them lose.
They also retconned all eldar x human shit aside from Darkies raping, because he seethes at LOTR Aragorn and Arwen. Also because of that elf x human shit was retconned from warhammer fantasy.
There is aelf x human shit in Age of Sigmar. Iirc there are even half-aelves
>Age of Shitmar
Cope, aelf waifus and husbandos make it superior
Turns out it doesn't
Always found it weird that Warhammer is so popular in wargaming. You would think that massive franchise like Star Wars would absolutely dominate near-toy market too. Given how massive Star Wars was, even if it's fans in majority don't want to put effort into assembling, kitbashing, sculpting, converting and painting, there should still be far more of them. None of my irl friends would hear of Warhammer if not for me, so I couldn't believe how massive Warhammer and GW is in tabletop wargaming. Especially since far more people know and like historical settings like WW2, so I at least expected those to be more popular.
>You would think that massive franchise like Star Wars would absolutely dominate near-toy market too.
Legion (star wars miniature game) was in production/development hell due to missmanaging of Asmodee.
>Especially since far more people know and like historical settings like WW2, so I at least expected those to be more popular.
Historicals miniatures of various scales produced by shitton of manufactors
Management and focus.
Also Space Marines. Space Marines make up like three quarters of GW profits by themselves. People love Marines.
I don't get the attraction to playing a race that everyone also plays. If I were to collect 40k models I'd go for some obscure race like Dark Eldar.
this also deldar models seem to look great in general
love those ships with the sails too
>being an unironic hipster
People like you are funny. Stupid, but funny.
Low entry level. Yeah despite the prices and plenty of efforts to finish your first army Warhammer is still one of the most newcomer-friendly wargames, because almost any LGS (local gaming store) will have 40k demo (and don't forget GW have it's own pretty huge network of stores). They also sells (for overprice of course, but newcomer doesn't know it yet) nearly a full range of hobby accessories, from contrast paint, glue, cutters, airbrushes and paintsets (box with 1-3 minist, 2 brushes and several paints which are required to make battle-ready paintjob)
The frick is Noizur's? I've heard of everything else on that list
DnD minis.
Ah
Why only these two specific years?
>There is aelf x human shit in Age of Sigmar.
Yeah AoS remains a designated pool for all trash ideas from WHFB and 40k, along with female marines and side haircuts
Welp I'm surprised we even got eldar & deldar romances in the game without this being nixed like Argenta.
I think Yrliet's stuff did get gimped based on some unused flags and her current ending being originally considered one of the bad ends for the romance
Marazhai also had some kind of quest on Santiel's Pride that didn't make it in and his romance and flags are the most bugged in the game. I guess the elves were treated as basically DLC and the game being rushed out didn't help.
There was some recent interview with Gav Thorpe where he half-jokingly admitted that he hates elves
>admitted that he hates elves
A man after my own heart.
>Also because of that elf x human shit was retconned from warhammer fantasy.
No it wasn't.
HALF ELVES are (probably) not a thing anymore but GW hasn't taken a hard stance either way.
Humans and elves bang in Fantasy all the time.
It's not garbage, it's bitter with slight mediocre

What are your tips on how to annoy Jimmy and give him aneurysm, without going into Hereticus conviction?
take him on a trip to Commorragh and then bring Yrliet and Marz when rescuing him
OH FFS YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS
>he didn't bring an ordo xenos acolyte to the den of xenos inequity
you're dumb
no, that is jimmie's response when you get him out of the rape cocoon with marzipan and yrliet around
suck on his rosette
aggresively flirting with a dark elf within his earshot
>wanting to romance the SoB
tell me you are under 25 and never actually played a game of warhammer before. God I hate secondaries
>not wanting to romance a fanatical devotee who chants hymns as you cum on her abs
tell me you are gay and never fricked a woman before. Emperor I hate homosexuals.
Actually I am a very tall, fit, wealthy european man who had girls asking him out since forever. I romanced Jae. Because shes the mirror copy of my RT. You on the other hand will remain a virgin both in-game and irl. Stacking no ass nor paper. Dumb fricking zoomer secondary
>I romanced Jae
worst taste
>I romanced Jae.
to actually admit such shit taste is impressive
.................
legit question how could you like jae portrait her portrait is borderline creepy
God I know it's like if an AI tried to make space kim kardashian with metal, fricking disturbing.
also did you just call me a homosexual after saying you wanna lick cum off of Abs? uh huh lmao
Um no? Good to know where your mind is at though, cum-eating homosexual.
>only people who dont know lore would be willing to romance SoBs
c'mon mate its not like some esoteric knowledge how sisters function
Is it really that hard for you to understand that some people would be able to love the ones that arent strictly "for emperor only"?
Lord Captain impreginates all female companions, Vigdis, Regina and somehow Marazhai. What ensues?
Is that abelards backstory?
I like how that guy went from powerfull goon, to somewhat likeable second in command
If Yrliet actually put out would she let the RT top and be vanilla or would she be autistic and demand they do some weird femdom shit?
She'd make you do it through a blanket with a hole in it to hide her shame like those hassidic israelites.
She might closeted clingy slight pervert. Likely vanila-ish sub
Both at the same time
Get cucked Jimmy. Everyone wants a piece of Calcazar
The frick is wrong with that chinkcel
STOP! DELET! CEASE AND DESIST!
Did Froghomosexual commission this?
Froggy doesn't know women want to get sandwiched, especially chinese ones it seems
nah the dude is legit insane but he is not a legit homosexual
women really just want a man with power. littel does she know that calcazar is not a biomancer so no horse wiener, no impregnation on demand, no orgasms for hours and no instant refractory time. Jimmy won. Calcazar lost
Jimmy is Calcazar's b***h. He'll do what he ask

ebin
She's married to a corpse
Did you know that there are Warp Gate in Koronus that leads to Jericho Reach, which is literally on the other side of the galaxy. It makes Expanse available to Tau. This means Owlcat might add Tau stuff.
Also, why the frick FFG added Tau PC in Rogue Trader TTRPG, but never added Eldar Outcasts PCs? This is mon-keigh behaviour
Because nobody likes Eldar. They're a joek faction.
Take that bait back into your ass, mon-keigh
Also, they added Drukhari PCs
Does the barrel of that gun double as buttplug?
Only if you simp for eldar properly, mon-cake
Dark Eldar suck ass too but at least they're mildly entertaining sometimes
Is the game finally playable?
Total eldar love

Imagine the wax
She's into it
she looks like a xenomorph
What do you guys think is GWS's ultimate plan for 40k's lore? I think the Emperor's body will die and he will be reincarnated as a Warp God with his own "daemons" (angels), except he will be a God of positive emotions (hope, love, charity, justice etc).
Hours Heresy 2.0. Last book basically confirms it.
That's dumb...
Horus Heresy 2.0. Abaddon will ascend as the Dark King and Horus will return to fight Guilliman as Abaddon competes against the Emperor.
i think they are gonna go the Warhammer fantasy route
Endtimes event into a reboot Age Of goonery or something to scale back the bullshit
40k is printing money so there is no reason to kill it
Whatever moronic shit will get them more money.
Question for loregays: I know crone worlds are where soulstones are harvested, but how hard is it to find one?
Seems dumb that this is never brought up here since Yrliet was present with broken soulstone and while she did give extra info and talked to Aeldari she didn't say "Hey wait let's search for one while we're here" or ask the clowns to get one for her. If it's not that hard to find one seems like a massive plot hole.
It's Eldar 'lore', it's automatically dumb and barely thought out.
Reminder there were soulstones in the Reaving Tempest spire and Eklendyl immediately found one to put the chess piece soul into. Yet no one thought to look for more and keep them for any other time you might need one, like how you just "mercy"killed the tortured joined farseers without bothering to put their souls into one so their souls don't get eaten immediately. Or how there's no way to even try and get Muaran or Eklendyl or Nocturne to help Yrliet. The more you think about this stuff the more obvious it is they didn't think it through.
the more you think about it the more obvious it is yrliet was an obligatory elf companion that no one gave a shit about
Nah, she's just written shoddy sometimes.
The early parts of her romance were more interesting with the meditation and the more spiritual and poetic ways of looking at the world. It just turns her into 100% dumb teen tragic waifu halfway through the game.
They shouldn't have included any eldar at all. Was nothing but a colossal waste of time and resources, cumrag fricking sucked and yrlishite is a waste of a companion slot.
fricking filtered, act 3 was great
filtered. cumrag is great, marazhai is great. agreed about shitliet though
No he's an annoying piece of shit like all elves who cant accept they fricked up and have been coping about it ever since.
Your opinion was not catalogued. Reason: low-value data
Thanks for the info, out of curiosity did anyone bring up these glaring plotholes to the devs or the community managers that get brought up?
Seems pretty damn glaring how a plot hole like this could exist.
Forgot to add: Wondering if there's a chance that they do a touch up to her so she gets a quest to do it or at least ending slides saying it was resolved if you allied with Eldar
MAYBE in Enhanced edition, but I'd say chances are small..
I'm pretty sure opinion about such stuff were quite loud enough to reach the devs, they just don't seem to address them
>they just don't seem to address them
based. never listen to rabble
yeah don't fix bugs either
bugs is one thing, but changing narrative to apease virgins is another
>but changing narrative to apease virgins is another
I don't give a shit about Yrliet's abortion of a romance, but that's a nonsensical narrative that should be change, the "sad end" via soulstone is forced as frick. Give the romance a tragic end but make it make sense.
It's a shit narrative, waifugays aside. It sticks out like a sore thumb because how badly written it is.
here's a thing, the producer for the game, Shestov, used to dm for me many years ago. and he's the type of dm that sometimes choses to forgo universe logic to fit a cool narrative, so you're shit out of luck. That said I don't know how much influence a producer has over writing and whether he can tell writers to change a narrative or to rework it, so I don't know if it was his vision or the writer's
>universe logic
That's not the problem, it's upheld fine. It's the game's story on it's own in relation to Yrliet's soulstone crap that is shit as explained here
independednt of 40K lore
Yep that and the unreactive Argenta reveal were the biggest outliers for me
40k is too much for Owlcat. They are a bunch of russian dnd pathfinder bozos. I cant think of a worse type of subhuman. Portland liberals are less creatively bankrupt and ignorant of the world. Russians got toilet technology just 70 years ago. Hello from Austria
Most characters have moments of schizo writing probably caused by writers not talking to each other, I imagine with how rushed everything was they didn't care too much about logic and consistency.
It's hard and dangerous, but not neccessarily nearly impossible. In Path of the Outcast novel group of outcast and their harlequin guides go to one of the most dangerous crone worlds to get a bunch of stones (harlequins wanted it to be dangerous). What's unclear is how much spiritstone output different worlds have and if some don't have any.
But in general Yrliet spiritstone thing is kinda stupid, yeah. Also, it's possible to get empty stone not directly from Crone Worlds, if someone else brought it from there.
She is a Sister of Battle. She isn't suppose to be romanceable. For fricks sake coomers shame the Emperor.
Name a new companion that while unlikely to be added is still within the realm of possibility for a Rogue Trader to have on their ship.
there was a whole chain of Yrliet getting NTR'd by her in that thread until good froggy showed up
Malice or Calligos' Sslyth buddy
a daemon host
Clownbro
Ork.
Doesn't matter what type, it's gotta be an Ork.
gib clown bf
I wish we could have the Solitaire join us
The ending has him show up to tell you about a new threat or something, if they make that DLC I hope we get to hang out with him more.
Would Harlequin have sex with mon-keigh as a joke?
of course. And impregnate her too, as a prank
Its a really funny prank, until the clown gets pregnant and now you have to marry her.
>Wanting to frick the thing that regularly portrays Slaanesh for the Eldar
Your pain shall be twofold
I survived Marzipan's gifts, I can probably handle this.
Marzipan's gift brought pain to the body and mind.
A Solitaire will bring pain to your soul.
Sounds kinky. It's fine, I can fix him / he can fix me.
>A Corsair mon'keigh-fricker
>a Blank
>Vindicare Assassin
>Daemonhost for heretics
pet monke, kroot, ork freeboota, death cult assasin, guard veteran of some sort maybe a catachan,
Aeldar Corsair and Ork Freebota are the ones I want to see the most
A Tau or a Necron. Might be fun.
>Malice
I don't think a goddamn Chaos God of Anarchy and Terror is going to be in a Rogue Trader's retinue.
Malice is a name of a Sslyth
Why not? Its not like Malice or Malal has had anything better to do, the last decade or two.
>within the realm of possibility for a Rogue Trader to have on their ship.
Pretty much anything
I simply want more xenos. Kroot and Sslyth (Malice seems perfect for this) feel most obvious and easy to justify.
Tau, because they're nowhere near Tau space but if they were they could easily add one to the crew.
>Fire Warrior companion
>Frequently makes statements about basic tactical doctrines which annoys Abelard, mainly since he finds them agreeable
>Has zero understanding of what Chaos is, talks about how Imperial transportation is quite strange with how often the ship is boarded by hostiles
>Makes frequent bad recommendations which make everyone groan, such as trying to be diplomatic with Uralon or the Necrons
>Is unerringly Iconoclast, to the point of sometimes bein a detriment
>Will get into heated debates with Yrliet and somehow always win
They have a basic idea of what Chaos is.
Before Cadia fell they thought Chaos Daemons were just ultra-hostile aliens but afterwards they ran into Chaos enough to recognize it for what it is, i.e psychic predators who are worshipped by spiky humans.
The game is set right as Cadia is falling. Chaos for the Tau is still something only the Ethereals really know about.
>so Iconoclast that even Iconoclast RTs and Abelard are disgusted by it
There were Tau player characters is orgininal ttrpg. I've already wrote about it in this thread, there is a warp gate through which tau can get to Koronus
Excentric outcast necron lord or cryptek.
Sane necrons can be incredibly reasonable if they have a grudge to settle with someone else
An Ork mechanic would be neat.

do those even exist
yes. mentioned and implied several times in books
Post some pussy
the very high-quality ones in the game's story are used for that very purpose. there's a wide variety of them
it's like you should go play bg3 instead
already did.
i want a cool dress like hers. why am i wearing rags for the coronation?
how long do you think it takes her to get ready every morning
an hour tops. she probably has a dozen handmaidens doing everything simultaniously
i'd wager that her hair takes longer to do. the dress despite looking very ornate isn't that hard to put on especially when you have dozens of maids to help you
So at what point am i gonna get the cat fight between the people i'm fricking simultaniously?
Somewhere in Chapter 4
it's not even a catfight you just choose 1 and the others just accept it like spineless ninnies
gay and out of character for some of them
After talking to calcazar but before going to eufrates2 for me.
is it possible to leave jae's quest for act 4? i'm curious if there's different content if you don't have to queue for it
did they fix abelard losing the debuff in act 3 if he downs in combat yet
no. just git gud and don't die
almost everyone got one shot by that fricker who spawns where you recruit abelard
how does that even happen? usually if abelard dies the entire party is fricked, back when i took him to act 3 i never had that problem because he was always the last guy standing
also do we even know if the slide is from not healing the debuff or just going to commorragh at all?
when is the last Yrliet romance scene supposed to play?
>jimmy goes into calcazr's mantion all mad about elina
>comes out
>doesn't talk about it
>you can't talk to him
what was that all about?
He walked in on Calcazar plowing Yremerys
s-she's dead...
Exactly
technically it was possible for her to get ressurrected except she probably had it arranged with tervantias who is dead at that point
So all those people with prosthetics. They replace their limbs after unfortunate accidents, right? They don't just chop off their limbs to get a metal arm, r-right?
admec do tho
well yeah, I mean normal people not the cog spergs
Nobles do it purely for fun and to show just how wealthy they are. Most people however would only get them for replacement from injury.
Ask these cats
He barges in even before his quest is complete, they aren't related. It's to show what's to come later in his romance, it'll be mentioned. Doesn't happen without it
don't remember this, is it romance only?
apparently it is according to anon here
Yeah, in act 4, when you first arrive at Footfall and go behind chorda's brains'n'cheese, a cutscene triggers near the el cazador's place with the guard. Heinrix asks you to wait, he approaches the guards, guard boy say "no one's allowed inside even (you)", Heinrix then kills him for this and proceeds inside, then comes back without saying much. There's a check for something that I don't remember, maybe his mercy/harsh global attitude or his romance-heresy counter, when you ask him if he's proud for what he's done to the boy. He then replies with either 0 fricks given if harsh, or says what he temporarily lost control of his sanctioning and doesn't really understand what just happened.
Honestly the whole scene is a really good touch for his char development and should be there even without his romance imo.
>should be there even without his romance imo.
but he doesn't lose control of his powers if you're not in a relationship. It's only because he starts asking himself uncomfortable questions is why that shit is happening
That's fair. But then again, I wish there was a proper friendship route for jimmi
What happened to Aspyce? Did she die?
lore question: how do eldar soulstones differ from the deldar soul trap thingie? don't both just hold a soul in a crystal type thing?
Craftworlder soulstones don't require constant suffering to prevent them from being eaten by Slaanesh.
what does the soul trap do exactly that makes it different? was wondering if you could use one to substitute for a soulstone if you were really desperate
You totally could, mon..., Rogue Trader. I am volunteering my soul trap to keep my cousin's soul safe for the time being. It's gonna be fine, I promise
... ah frick it eats the soul or is slowly killing it or something right?
Not at all! The soul will be fine, it will have some fun even. It's like a pleasure palace for the soul
>looks at "fun" cronos parasite engine "gift"
got it, thanks marz
back to the drawing board
Spiritstones are wholesome. And don't empower
but functionally could you use a soul trap to "save" a soul and put it in a soulstone later, or repurpose it so it doesn't have whatever makes it evil? just felt weird that soulstones are so rare but these things are everywhere and hold souls too
Are they everywhere? I thought they're mostly Archon-grade stuff
well i had a bunch in my inventory for some reason
>clicks tongue
what do?
Sad I couldn't do the "come closer" trick and kiss him right there. Ah well, the headbutt will do.

God imagine her filling you with the Emperor's light haha
any good sister argenta fan art out there?
Are DE supposed to be crazy rape bandits that grab every single person they come across or are they supposed to be a crime syndicate that extorts people and only snatches them if they can't pay?
yes
it's a magical tapestry of your dudes. But they lean more on the raid and pillage side.
if you aren't rich only one happens. if you have money both happen
They live off literal suffering, why the frick would they take money over that?
Is Eufrates II ship battle bugged?
Just had 1 big chaos ship to fight and it didn't fire on me, I thought it was gonna be fleet vs fleet
Yrliet still doesn't have a Character AI profile? Why? Many other characters, even non-companions got it. I want to bully/indulge her
because she's boring. nobody want to talk to her
Reminder that even Kunrad has one kek
Jimmi has several
What ai character profile
Shadowbanned by Heinrix, Argenta and Pasqal AIs
Bring this up on leddit, someone might make it.
(Serious advice, not a go back joke)
Name a better comedy duo than Yrliet and Marazhai. You can't.
jimmy and marazhai
Marazhai and Ulfar have some moments too. Really Marazhai + everyone is great in general.
>didn't nag jimmy enough
>he leaves me for the inquisition
it's so fricking over for me. men complain when women nag, but if we don't you do the dumbest shit
You can't keep him on heretic run, it's a known fact
i'm not doing a heretic run. he just prefers to hump his rosette to real sex
Hold up, you screwed his "corruption"? It's so over, how? He only needs like 3 flags out of 5
frick if I know. I MIGHT have fricked it up in cumrag when I was checking out different options and continued from the wrong save
Time to unzip toybox and pray to the omnissiah
where in toybox would I need to look to fix the error of my ways?
In search and pick search for CorruprionInterrogator (yes this exact spelling) and set it to 3 or 4 doesn't matter, before hitting the icebrick episode. You may also start some corruption etudes in etudes tab, janus, cumrag etc. for additional fluff in the dialogue.
Note that unlocking said etudes increases CorruprionInterrogator counter, don't let it go above 4 or you'll frick up again
it worked, thanks. I still don't know where exactl I fricked up, i only had 1 corruption flag. looks like that cumrag frick up like I thought since it adds two flags, I think
Janus has 1, then the dinner, then cumrag has 2 different mutually exclusive flags, then his incident on Footfall also should give you another flag, and there was probably something else which I don't remember
OR it might be because i' sucking drukhari dick on the side. Hmm......
my impression of that romance was he mostly nags (you)
he nags you like once on janus and that's it.
he kept doing it in act 3
yes jimi i know you hate xenos
no jimi i won't kill the xenos
no jimi not this one either
yes jimi i know you got tortured so did i i'm still keeping the xenos
that has nothing to do with romance
wait... a bunch of pelletguns can canonically zerg rush a bunch of space marines to death?
pic related always made me wonder how many spacemarines there are. There have to be A LOT otherwise it could be pheasable to just run at them with rusty spoons. There are figuratively infinite humans/demons/xenos and only a finite amount of angels of the emperor. Wouldn't a million Termagants be a better strategy to kill a squad of space marines over a hivetyrant or something equally big?
so much of 40k runs on rule of cool that it's basically irrelevant how many there would logically be
I don't think you understand, even in RAW that space marine is probably not in any danger
a GEQ suad going toe-to-toe with even one MEQ is basically hoping to win in death by 1000 cuts but the reality is that the MEQ will probably rip through them, especially if it has something like a chainsword
Supposedly about a million space marines. Since there are about a 1000 chapters of at maximum 1000 members. But that number only works if every chapter is codex compliant, which we know a lot arent, like the Black Templar who might have about 16k marines, and the Dark Angels who will kill you for even asking.
Also the 1k chapters is definitly a highly conservative number, since those are the active chapters that are certified and easy enough to contact to count.
Yes
Wildly inconsistent spees murrine power levels are lore accurate
Yes. This is why you should never underestimate the power of a lasgun. It might make just a dent in the ceramite but when you've got a thousand Guardsmen shooting at you, with tens of thousands more in reserve, you're going down. This is why the Traitor Legions always get BTFOed. Doesn't matter how badass and chaos-empowered you are, the Imperium can throw innumerable Guardsmen, Basilsks and Leman Russes against you and win by attrition. All it takes is a few lucky lasbolts into your optics or throat plate, an Ogryn to grab you, stand too close to indirect fire or take a 120mm round to your chest and a Space Marine drops like a chump.
Space Marines are nowhere near as strong as memes make them out to be. Limit of 1000 marines per chapter was always nonsensical, it always falls aparat in any simulation, be it video or a tabletop game and book authors ignore it as well.
>Limit of 1000 marines per chapter was always nonsensical
what is the exact wordking though? If it's vague enough you couldalways lawyer it into "1000 combat ready space marines", and have like 200000 more "in training"
The Black Templars, effectively do that by claiming that since they have been in a unending crusade since the chapters founding, they arent breaking any rules despite having a lot more Marines than any chapter legally should.
Emperor never said the crusade was over.
Therefore it never ended.
Rogue Traders still being allowed to exist is a sign of that.
Just add a -0 to all of GWs numbers to make it make sense. Simple as.
The problem with "simulations" is that it's really fricking hard to simulate the kind of reaction times, communications, coordination and just sheer cohesion a force of Space Marines is capable of between their augmentations, sensory equipment and sheer ludicrous amount of training and experience. Then you add in the sheer concentration of firepower and resilience and you end up with something that is far greater than the sum of its parts.
Yes, a squad of ten Marines may struggle against a full company of Guardsmen with heavy weapons support etc. But they'll tear through a platoon so fast the neighbouring units will have barely any time to react. And they can do THAT over and over with those advantages up above if they are given any kind of room to maneuver, because they're just going to be constantly inside the OODA loop of a "mortal" opposing force.
You don't see that simulated well because it is, frankly, pretty damn hard TO simulate that kind of thing. (This is also why for example soviet-style forces tend to perform better in wargames than in practice - the impact of western-style unit initiative and independence is actually pretty hard to simulate in command exercises.) Also it'd be an pretty unfun thing to be up against in any kind of game because playing the OPFOR means you basically don't get to actually do much unless the opponent screws up or has a truly awful starting position.
The closest I've seen trying to depict it in a 40k setting is the "squad mode" rules for the Deathwatch TTRPG, under which a cohesive fireteam of Marines will essentially treat entire squads and platoons of cultists or guardsmen as little more than speed bumps.
Some perspective, anon;
A typical Lasgun wielded by a typical guardsman in 40k is represented as firing 1-2 shots, hitting 50% of the time (4+) with no outside factors, having a relative strength of 3 (Whereas a Guardsman's toughness is 3, and a Marine's is 4), having no armor penetration (0AP), and dealing '1' damage (Normal troops and such have 1 wound, Marines have 2).
Marine armor is good enough to 'save' (block) normal damage 2/3rds of the times (3+ save).
The keys to this are the 0 AP and the 3+ save. And entire squad of Guardsman can fire shots off and not cause a single wound, or they might pop off and wipe a 5-man squad of Marines.
It's why most Guardsmen squads carry around Meltas and Plasma guns.
In universe a guardsman needs an average hitrate of atleast 35% on a range of 30 meters, to be qualified to become/stay a guardsman.
Yes. Anyone who doesn't understand how strong the lasgun has never faced an entire wall of lasguns. Imagine every other second your armor melting away.
>several lasguns firing superheated beams almost continuosly, hundreds of shots per clip
>surprised when it can compromise even marine armor
The lasgun is done really dirty by being shown side by side with very scary shit
Space Marines aren't as impressive as some of the BL books make them out to be.
The modern US military could probably wipe out a chapter of 1000 of them in a straight up-fight, even without resorting to WoMDs.
If the chapter was stuck on the planet maybe. But if the chapter had access to its own warmachines/tanks/planes, then no.
Would unironically make it easier (bigger targets for missiles etc. to hit).
The one exception would be a decent sized starship, which would probably have a checkmate just because space isn't militarized.
You forget how much bullshit their enhancements give them. A butt naked marine could sneak their way into every seat of goverment and kill every leader.
Give them equipment and they walk over everyone, and I'm sure they could get normal people to defect to them and act like the guard
I simply don't see what answer something like a Rhino has for a BVR missile.
40K combat is incredibly short range and stationary compared to real life.
Would you?
For me it's
>Void. Take. You
and then proceeding giving him a heartattack until he confesses
yeah, the empra line is only available after telling him to go frick himself
Not true, I remember seeing it in closeness route
I don't think it has anything to do with routes. those are just flavour of the moment, they don't actually influence the outcome and don't lock each other out, so you can confuse him even farther by first bullying him and then patting his head for being a good boy
>says that he loves you
>says it again after the ice sculpture incident
>you can tease him that it only took him almost dying to say that despite him already having said that before
literally unplayable
I'm kinda glad I didn't press the void line during my own run, no ruined immersion outta 10
I got to chapter 4 on christmas and stopped playing, should I try to finish?
I got bored by solved combat and lack of meaningful ability progression
Abelard trivializes the Defiler fight when doing a no generator destruction run. Locks it into attacking him
are Tau just mega autistic or are they just too "young" as a species to understand shit like the Warp and etc as concepts?
They barely have souls so Chaos usually ignores them.
Chaos doesn't ignore them, they find them really hard to locate.
Some Tau have been corrupted already and the more psychicly active races in the alliance are acting like a back door for chaos bullshit
Think about it like this. If an Eldar soul is like a giant bonfire, then a Human soul is like a campfire and a Tau soul is like a candle. The bonfire attracts a lot more attention than the campfire, but the candle might not even be seen.
Mix of both. Tau souls are incredibly small, so they have very little presence in the Warp. As such they have no psykers, and psychic abilities actually have less dway on them. On top of that their methods of transport don't involve Warp Travel, so they have no real experience with Chaos. That changed when they reverse-engineered a Warp drive and one of their Expansion Spheres tried to do a Warp Jump with no gellar field. The Tau on board were fine but the auxilaries were immediately assaulted by daemons.
This led to that sphere executing many of their surviving auxilaries once they finished the jump.
Tau as a whole have some vague knowledge of Chaos, but primarily only through Human cults, who they've just deemed as groups of delusional lunatics.
Small souls must mean they have big breasts to make up for it right?
I don't think that's how it works
All of my Tau propaganda shows them with big breasts, clearly it's GW who are wrong.
The tau are b***hes, they can't even melee
I have high hopes for Dark Heresy and inevitable Sororitas romance in that game.
>argenta wants to stay and fight the genestealer cult on a planet while everyone else wants to get the frick off world
lol
How do you justify keeping Yrilet as Dogmatic
you don't. you either kill her on janus when she outlives her usefulness, or kill her when she starts talking shit, or when she kills your officer, or when she continues talking shit
Pretty sad. Seems like she was made only for Iconoclast. And keeping around Marazhai makes no sense for any character.
we need an "A jest" sign that you can show jimmy and abelard every time you joke but they take it very seriously
Do you think the "reflection" iconoclast got to plap Lanaevussy??
no. he's gay. that's peak iconocuckism
No. Iconowiener is a bisexual icon
What does he say about the Eldar?
I've heard that "reflection" romanced Yrliet and faster, but she died eventually. Idk if true
He says he saved the Crudarach survivors and made a strong alliance with them, and says he also suffered his losses, while gripping a wraithbone amulet that if you pass a hard Xenos test you recognize is a love token.
Iconochad level we never had a chance to become. Damn you Owlcat
At this point i honestly believe Abnett is worse for 40K than Matt Ward ever was.
WE NEED A BIGGER PARTY SIZE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I like all characters I want to take them all with me
I know. I always want more party members. Even increasing cap to 8 would be nice. Can't stand when crpgs have smaller squads than 6. At least with toybox you can manually add companions, but that completely fricks with balance.
Which origin has the best drip, i say either commissar or crime lord
crime lord had ugly shoes. commissar, psyker or female noble
You people think we have it bad now, but just you wait - they're gonna release books about the two forgotten legions, and then you'll now how good we had it
Already covered, the two lost Primarchs were killed during the Rangdan Xenocides and their marines were absorbed back into other legions.
nah, I mean actual lore. that give them names and backstories and motivations
Nah, they'll always remain open ended because it allows people to make their guys as they see fit.
It's funny that you think the ones in charge of 40k now have any inclination whatsoever to encourage OC.
40k is about Primarchs now. Lion and Angron were the last nail in the coffin.
Nobody cares about the non big 4 primarchs
Once they bring back Leman and Sanguinus the rest are whatever
t. Salamandergay who knows Vulkan's forever consigned to MIA (and honestly is glad for it)
After the sales for Lion, nah. They'll push out every Primarch just to keep wringing money out. HH fans are fricking rabid for them.
The only thing we know about them was that one was a hypocrite and might have been a traitor, and the other was humorless and a failure. Or vise-versa
That eldar gay should be cute psycho succubi, fricking owlcat you had one job. And how the frick you max heretic in this game? I finish it at 4 heretic and click every heretic path I could minus foulstone.
can you embrace the imperial truth in the game and denounce the HERESY that is the imperial cult?
I think you have an atheist option, while talking with the wolf marine about religion.
screenshot??
That knowledge is too meta and far away in time for a character to really know it, even a rogue trader
you can tell pasqal that you don't believe in the emprah. he'll treat you like a special needs child
Owlbug should’ve included a sex scene with a Daemonette like in DA:O with Desire demon.
In general RT seems to hate instant game overs compared to Pathfinder.
There's only like two and both are in cumrag.
Theres also one if you refuse to become the RT, and i think one in the climax of act 1 if all the shuttles are destroyed.
>marazhai tries to play chicken with me by suggesting that he should join winterscale
>agree to swap him for the snek
>haha i was merely pretending to be moronic
that's right, know your place
I loved shoving him into the hands of the inquisition as soon as I got out
voice too sexo
I agonized over doing the right thing with Idira - giving her to Heinrix because I felt guilty betraying a Theodora’s confidante. Thankfully Argenta helped me.
terrible choice
>t. Heretic traitor.
She’s a ticking time bomb on a spaceship which is the worst possible place for a psyker to get possessed or go on a rampage.
Keeping idira as a pet psyker and never taking her out on missions is my middle ground
why would you keep her then? she can't warn you if she's not there
They don't have sex in the warhammer 40k universe
explain slaanesh
too much heavy metal and cocaine
>heavy metal and cocaine with no sex
lol. lmao.
it was a very chaste and proper drug fueled metal rave
god damn winterscale is top lad. he needs a bigger presence in the game. We could become the bestest of frens
>invites yout to exchange stories at the bonfire
>there is no bonfire to exchange stories at
this game is extremely gay sometimes
Yeah. An absolute bro. Would be nice to have more missions with him.
His son is made for Aeldari Corsair coochie
>kill someone important with it
I will, bro. I'll kill a demon corrupting you and a c'tan. How does that sound?
Nice to see the RT Ganker breads back to being quite active
>moans and wet slapping noises
what did they mean by this?
benis in bagina :DD
Brazilian oil wrestling.
pizza is illegal
>This is the kind of shit that keeps Sisters of Battle against hand holding.
I hate slaneesh so much bros.
yes, too much hand holding can lead to slaanesh corruption. i have proof
You two be nice, also what the frick are you talking about?
I think i've figured out what prevented idira and argenta from becoming friends in my game. It was Jimmy all along. During idira's quest he's the one who speaks up against putting on the device, and argenta stays silent. Could this be it?
Shit, you need to take Argenta to Idira quest? I fricked up. I took Space Marine instead, thinking that he will have some interaction with Tervintas
you have to bring them along on several quests. i don't remember which ones, since I bring them almost constantly with me
It's probably the fact that idira is an open vessel for demonic warp energies and argenta is a devout nun of the adepta sororitas and specifically the orders militant which crusades against demonic entities and warp powers.
The only places I had them together was
>Cumrag, Told Idira not to Shoot Argenta
>Idira quest, Argenta said something but don't know if it changed anything
>Argenta quest, when Argenta returned with the Armor, Idira revealed that Argenta's prayers quell the daemonic voices and Idira would like to be around her more often.
I then had Fire ending for Argenta and Humanity ending for Idira.
quest, Argenta said something but don't know if it changed anything
for me it was Jimmy. Damn, guess he takes precedence
>tanned skin
>white hair
>young
#1 of my want list
>tfw just realized that I'm no longer on Daring and instead playing on hardest difficulty level.
>I put it on many hours ago to check out how balance will look like if I play with bigger party
>Ultimately I decided against bigger party because momentum mechanic completely shits itself with more party members
I forgot to switch back to Daring since I felt no difference. All this time I thought I'm on Daring and not Unfair.
Yeah, Daring to Unfair isn't that big of a difference.
The shitty guns that do 0 in Daring just do 1-2 in Unfair.
Big attacks either 1 shot you or get cucked by your armor stacking same as they would on Daring.
Enemy HP bloat is annoying until you get your builds going, then it doesn't matter.
The only real difference is skill penalties but they changed that a few patches ago now.
Does destroying the machine on Commorragh that prevents Slaanesh from invading do permanent damage to the Drukhari or would it just be a (albeit costly) annoyance in the long run?
it will make vect seethe. which means that it's a bigger problem than the drukhari let on
I assume the reason Vect seethes, is that we sink his courtroom.
Better yet!
Cumrag is the size of a solar system. You are atmost permanently ruining an area the size of earth.
Though it might make it slightly easier for demons to invade later down the line.
Ok, wtf is huskaerl?
A housecarl. Like a primitive senechal and bodyguard, who looks after you and your estate.
I'm trying to play melta... but at this point i gotthe melta ultima like 15 hours ago and i got no upgrade yet...
When is next thread?
same place, same time tomorrow
