is there any universe more edgy than warhammer 40k?
Is there any universe more edgy than warhammer 40k?
>He doesn't realize 40k is a parody of edgy sci-fi
warp travel isn't anywhere near that bad.
>grimdark
>edgy
no
I'd enjoy the 40K setting more if it took itself less seriously.
If it wasn't for FUCKING MAGNUS, Humanity wouldn't have to use the Warp to get around.
>its k bro, we're just pretending :)
There is something really disturbing in 40K. I know almost nothing about it but I love it, but imagining but I am living in such said universe... can't explain the emotion but it feels heavy on the chest.
It's quite fucked up to be honest.
What did Magnus do?
MAGNUUUUUUUUS
it's not that bad generally, but when inside a warp storm it just might be.
youtube.com
really 40k is just a ton of things taken from the various wars throughout history, things from varying sci fi universes, all cranked up to about 20 or so and wrapped into a neat universe.
Remember to give the operator the (you)s he needs to maintain his self worth
TL;DR - He knew Horus was going to be a little bitch, but he couldn't get to his father, the Emperor, immediately, so he went and shattered the fucking Webway, inadvertently turning it into a portal for daemons.
so it's like a sci fi military version of kingdom hearts, got it
The Imperial Webway, I might add. The Eldar still have their Webway to frolic around with.
Who do you want the next game to be about?
this. it would be boring as fuck without the backstory. you might as well be playing with plastic army men.
Nothing wrong.
Raven Guard pls
Smurfs
>posting the non-black version of the Salamanders
Also, I just realized that there's no "II" legion in this picture.
MMMMMAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGNNNNNNNNNNNUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Where is II?
II and XI are erased from history
Ah, gotcha.
>conveniently forgetting to mention that he had no idea what the fuck he was shattering because emps is a secretive piece of shit
Wolf fuckers please go and stay go.
DIS NOW AN ORK TEAD BOYZ!
Thats not how it works user. But it is pretty close
When will people realize that 40k and GW is a fucking retarded franchise and company? GW is literally the EA of tabletop gaming and people still suck their cocks.
40k is trash and people who like 40k have shit taste.
That text was horribly painful to read
It was so badly explained
Gone, executed by Russ and his legion to scour them from history for some reason only known to them and the Emperor.
Out of universe its so that you can have a chapter or warband made to be anything then base it on one of the missing legions rather than the existing.
That shit sits at the top of the "plot points GW forgets about" list. The only explanation is that "Big E fuck them up"
All about infinity, man.
>plot points GW forgets about
Wrong. They're intentionally left missing so that you can make your own dudes then base them off the scoured legions so that you don't have to strictly stick what canon dudes would do.
I hope they make gaunts ghost as an open hub first person shooter with armor and weapon customisation and squad based gameplay like sw republic commander or brother in arms.
With good old ragdoll and gore pre 2006 time.
The whole point of missing legions is to encourage homebrewing.
That's the point. It's supposed to be stupidly comedically edgy.
So, are Imperial Navy sailors even tougher than Imperial guard since they regularly go into a demon infested hell?
40k is a parody that started to take itself seriously
as a direct result its the single worst popular science fiction setting in existence
Most of the lore is garbage, it's just an excuse to play with toy soldiers.
Speaking of "parodies that started to take themselves too seriously"
But with it taking itself seriously, we get stuff like
Not really, most of the servitors and other ratings on the ship aren't affected by the travel through the warp, other than nightmares and a general sense of unease.
As long as the Gellar Field holds, the ship is totally insulated from the Warp.
This fucking image
Every fucking thread.
No, this is not a successful warp jump by any means what-so-ever.
This is what happens if the gellar field get fucked with entirely for a portion of the jump.
A total mission failure combined with hundreds of thousands, possibly a million lives lost is in no way a successful warp jump. A successful warp jump is appearing on time or before you even left right where you need to be with the most the crew experiencing being a little bit of whispering from shit that ain't there.
...
Why do sci-fi fans have literally no standards at all?
Mass Effect, Star Wars, Star Trek, Warhammer, all clumsy and worthless excuses for settings.
Sort yourselves out
How do you think the guard gets from planet to planet?
The navy is mostly pilots, engineers, and other assorted officers with mountains of slaves.
Was this movie secretly canon?
We excuse the setting if it means tech we can use that introduces unique mechanics and enemies.
Literally read the lorebook and human sphere of Infinity.
Maybe the Dark Souls universe, but I gotta admit WH40k is bleak enough to be edgier than it, I think.
Although maybe Doom is worse, as hell itself has literally invaded the real world and fucked up everything in that universe.
Any setting that has been around for long enough and had a lot of different writers working on it is going to be contradictory and clumsy.
There's no excuse for Mass Effect, though.
Ahem.
WH40K is leagues above other shit, It's like the only "serious" sci-fi setting that actually has fun
>As long as the Gellar Field holds
Then why did the thousand sons get that flesh disease, then turned into suits of armor?
i'd warp travel my dick into a harlequin
No it's not. Warhammer is complete and utter garbage.
In what way?
You claim they're bad but don't give reasons as to why.
not him but I think it's because they were doing too much magic fuckery
tl;dr version:
>I got bad rolls in Rogue Trader once
It's not serious at all, not even "serious".
You are confusing them with Death Guard, who caught zombie plague on a spaceship, and those were betrayed by Typhus IIRC.
Thousand Suns were mutating because of Tzeentch fuckery.
>people pay $100 a toy to play this shit
fucking kek, Games Workshop is the smartest business around selling $0.50 toys to kissless virgins to pretend they're meaningful SPESH WARRURS
I'm pretty sure we're all pretending to be commanders of SPEHS MAHREENS here. Space marines are also 2-3 bucks a model.
>HAHA WARHAMMER IS DUMB XD
fuck off back to your containment board, /lit/. you wouldn't know quality if it slapped you in the face.
Just the fact that there are ships that has operated for thousands of years flying around proves that the warp isn't nearly as dangerous as the picture makes it sound.
>he thinks WH40k is real
Are you retarded?
I get the impression that a teenager wrote this
>real-time rendering
For what purpose?
This would have been pretty cool without all the jaggies and frame drops. CG movies should look better than video games.
And why is the inquisitor literally donte?
Nigga, what? A Tac Squad of Space Marines is like 40 bucks. That's much more than any other game for the quality you get.
is this use of hammers for menial labor still banned by the time 40k comes around?
40k is vastly below them
mass effect, despite its raping, is a better setting
Because Game Workshop was fucking greedy jews and literally the only good or not bad media we've gotten out of 40k is Dawn of War 1 & 2 and Space Marine.
A tac squad contains 10 models.
40/10=4 dollars per model, guess I lowballed it.
You can buy a good hundred in 1/72 or 15mm for that money.
Knowing that I still play 40k.
people like you would say that their Japanese animus are by far superior to inferior western images
so just fuck off with your shitposts
This game is pretty edgy
>But that's unfair, I thought I get a cover save, you forgot cover save!
I honestly want to get into the warhammer scene
How do I start
And no, I just want the story
The problem arises that you then need at minimum 4 tac squads for a 2k point list. 40k is overpriced when you add it all up for a game that is incredibly lackluster in rules. Also, don't forget a 60 dollar codex that is changed every other year, and an 80 dollar rule book that is changed every 3 years.
Read the Horus Heresy books. They're at least decent.
So when they say the demons rape, is that literal? because i could get off to that
I'd kill someone to see a Twilight Imperium video game. Even as an RPG, anything.
>The game has space ghosts who leave graveyards of ships scattered in space. When you see this you think that you came across an abandoned/abducted fleet, you read the heatscans and detect no life signs within the ships. You board one of them and see nobody within them, only then to realize that every ship within the radius fires up and literally decimate your scouting fleet, or destroy you within and take your ships for their own.
>A virus plague that travels within the stars. It's so massive, that it travels through the galaxy like a misty miasma and stealing tech from other species. When you see them coming it looks like you're seeing skeleton ships where you see all the insides and parts, but covered in a mist that makes them look as if though the ships are covered in an aura.
Look up slaanesh.
>people like Star Trek because of the technobabble and setting
>not because of the characters
this is why everyone considers Sup Forums to be autistic and underage
I want an ork game that play like Luftrauser with Gear Up mix up
At least post the cutscene with sound
youtube.com
Also my favorite from the game
Just play kill team, it's the better way.
anything above 1250 is a meme.
>they dont understand the technology of the vessel they are traveling on
>somehow it uses caveman tech, corpse fueled furnace for power
Is this shit accurate or is the OP's pic an asspull?
...
40k is fucking retarded and has so many random writers who don't know what the fuck they're doing that it could be accurate depending on the writer.
THEY CALL ME DONTE THE HERETIC KILLA
HAS A NICE RINK TO IT DONTCHA THINK>?
...
AH THE MOST PURE CHAPTER
NO SHADY SHIT HERE
My thoughts exactly as i watched it.
Sci-Fi used to be called Sci-F- because they were meant to be 'what-if' theories based on actual science and the closer to real science it was the 'harder' it was. Now Faster-Than-life travel is a staple of the genre which used to be considered so 'soft' that you already crossed fantasy territory and could not really be called sci-fi anymore.
>Star Wars
>sci-fi
Space opera, nigger.
he/she/both/it sounds like fun, 10/10 chaos god would follow
>they dont understand the technology of the vessel they are traveling on
That is the only part right in the whole thing. They replicate the gellar field (the energy barrier blocking the warp) without knowing how it works since this handome motherfucker wont allow anybody to experiment or reverse engineer any machine.
Dune is pretty good.
Personally I thank my lucky stars that there haven't been any Dune games since the DOS era (that I know of).
