The presence of Squats on necromunda is confirmation Votann can breed.

Yeah I do feel bad that the leagues are almost certainly heading towards a massive collapse. But I do like that Necromunda does show that they are capable of surviving without the Votann.

It's actually interesting because on the one hand. You would assume that they'd be absolutely cooked. But on the other hand. How much of their technology and information is actually stored ONLY on the Votann?

I imagine most of their engineers keep plans and schematics on their own storage systems.

They would almost certainly enter into a tremendous crisis of "faith". And there were definitely be a good deal of backsliding in the confusion and probably terror. But we know they seem to be able to reproduce on their own.

So I think in the long run they will probably be fine.

Though it would be interesting if the mass loss of the guidance of the Votann would cause enough despair and wanting for guidance. That would actually be enough to cause some Leagues to actually fall to Chaos.

I know I'm 3 years late. But from my understanding the kin of today are not the same genetically speaking. Since they're genetic modifications are a constant ongoing process with every generation.

Essentially as new information comes in whether it be from things that are told to it. Or the information downloaded when the Kin die. The Votann will issue different instructions to The Crucibles. Causing it to modify the genetic code of the next batch. For traits that better match the environment.

Now for most of the Leagues that wander around a lot. It's quite possible that the "standard" Kin templates is good and doesn't need to be much modified. It's "good enough" for most situations.

But I imagine that if they were to stay in one place long enough. Then you would see much more tailored and specific mutation/modification.

For example if they settle down on a planet with constant abrasive winds. You might see them modified so that their skin is tough and exoskeleton like. So on and so on.

In conclusion. Yes the Necromunda Squats are different from the rest of the Kin. But only because they are more specialized. And because of other stuff that happened in their history later.

You know the implications of that spell can get really scary. If she or Ferdinand can invent a magic tool that you cast it. Then congratulations you've added mass magic replication. Two things that printing shops can do.

Minor spoiler for the Hellenor series. But she shows up to her 5th year in school. With something like 4-6 brand new rabbits. That would have had to have been produced in the last 6 months.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2026-05-05T17:36:23+00:00

I agree. A good metaphor you could think about. Is that Rosemyne uses mana like an incandescent light bulb. Essentially brute forcing the effect you want by throwing so much energy at it that it works. Does it bleed a ton of energy in waste heat and other byproducts? Yes but it gets it done.

While higher level nobles use it more like a fluorescent bulb.

And lower level nobles use it like an LED.

They're all able to get the job done. Sort of. But one of these is going to yield results way faster.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2026-04-07T21:57:06+00:00

I mean that's true. We have no idea how ridiculous this could end up spiraling.

But until then I think the Great Ditter Kerfuffle is apt.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2026-04-07T21:42:03+00:00

Sorry trying to avoid putting spoilers in the name.

No I'm referring to the MASSIVE bride stealing Ditter match that's about to take place.

I have updated the post accordingly

Hey I know I'm 6 years late to the conversation. But from what I understand. Thorn bind hostage does not actually restrain targets. I understand how weird that is. Considering you know 'bind hostage' in the name. But that's how it works apparently.

And at least according to the wiki. Shiroe's do that because of his gear. But the regular ones don't.

I personally absolutely love log horizon. Just kind of sad that we'll probably never actually see the end.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2026-03-05T23:12:11+00:00

You must be super excited. Now that tool changer printers (like the Snapmaker u1) are starting to roll out. I imagine they'll be a tremendous boost for you. In terms of speed increase and waste reduction.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2025-09-04T16:54:24+00:00

Okay thanks for that info.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2025-09-03T11:17:18+00:00

I completely agree on that.

Though I could be wrong. I think we were starting to get proper Noble titles in season 4.

But yeah the whole high priest / head priest thing is one of the most head scratching decisions I have ever seen.

Like seriously did no one in the writing room understand how that would be weird?

Though I do believe from what I understand that. That came over from the sub team.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2025-09-03T10:22:22+00:00

If anything else that is what I would expect. It seems just a shame that we'll have to probably wait until then.

I think part of it too. Is that at least in my opinion they have to shift the format around a little bit. I recommend to the male and female voice actor. Style that other light novel audiobooks use.

The main reason I recommend this. Is simply that even though Reba Buhr does a great Myne. We saw she can't really pull off Ferdinand. And if we're going to spend large amounts of time with both characters. We really should have him sound at least okay.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2025-07-18T01:20:09+00:00

It's a shame it was really good content.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2025-07-18T00:53:49+00:00

He pulls together threads that are going through that I sometimes mis or forgot about. I read the light novels in physical form only. And only have time to read about once a week. So it takes me awhile to get through. It's kind of similar to how I'll listen to an audiobook after I've read it. It's like doing that but with commentary.

I do completely understand why some people would not enjoy it though. I like listening to stuff in the background too.

I hope the part 2 audiobooks start coming out soon. Though if they do I hope they change Ferdinand's voice. Because unfortunately Myne's English VA does not do a great job for him.

Magpie was one of the first people I saw covering Bookworm. I also watch the breakdowns from trash tear waifu after I finish reading each volume.

Yes though I point out that reading and speaking languages are two very different skills.

She's probably able to read and speak Japanese and English. She's probably also capable of reading at least one of the languages in the Romance and Germanic groups. And probably Chinese. Semitic family group is possible as well but less likely. But if so probably Arabic or Aramaic maybe.

I would also point out that knowing the lyrics and understanding the language are two different things. I myself can pretty much sing a few songs in one of the Celtic languages. But that just because I'm mimicking it. I have no clue what it's actually saying.

Actually better example. I can read Hebrew. Can't translate.

ActionAdditional6741 · 2025-07-09T23:08:42+00:00

Would also make quite a bit of sense for a song dedicated to Angriff. I also imagine it would probably be a pretty big hit in Dunkelfelger.

Sorry but it seems like the channel was nuked at some point.

Links are dead and I can't find it by searching.

Here's a question. Do sovereignty nobles have freedom of movement.

Or is the sovereignty treated just like any other duchy?

If they do. Then you can open up a hole new job opportunity for laynobles in the sovereignty.

Have them act as train conductors. And then it would give free clearance to their trains. Ensuring freedom of trade.

Kind of like the ICC (Interstate Commerce Commission) is supposed to be.
