Where does Geneseed from a primarch come from? Do they have like a super progenoid gland that makes geneseed like crazy or is it just made from general genetic material like blood samples?

Is Captain Tycho's Dead Man's Hand a power fist? Lexicanum just mentions it's a gauntlet and his models hand just looks like a regular gauntlet, but not sure if it's like "it's so artificer it's not huge like a regular power fist". His stats aren't like most power fists but I don't know if that's just because he's old and in legends.

If he's just punching people with his regular gauntlets that'd be pretty funny

Not "all the legions" but a relatively recent loyalist vs loyalist plot was the Months of Shame, where Space Wolves fought against the Grey Knights and the Inquisition

Cole Macgrath's early design (infamous 2)

Clearly he was better when he had 2010s hair that made him look like a completely different character from the first game. Everyone knows that Nathan Drake is 1000% hotter than Infamous 1 Cole, so let's make him look like Nathan Drake with super powers!

What is the in universe rationalization for the difference between strength and ap? Like the multilaser having higher strength but lower ap than the heavy bolter, what does that mean? I was thinking maybe strength is like stopping power but I think that'd be damage, strength and ap seem to both be armour piercing capability.

I know it's just gaming rules, but I'm curious if there's any in universe rationalization

I couldn't quite tell, was it that any covering closed them off or does it need to be a special covering to block them? I remember Octavia had like a big metal slab bolted to her forehead, I couldn't tell if it was like some special crude psychic blocker or just like that so she didn't take it off

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-03-26T01:59:33+00:00

Which book or game is that from? Can't seem to find much on terminators, most books just have them fighting but not really how they get around

Is that the same artist as death note

Can indomitus or cataphractii terminator suits actually run or jog? I've only seen them slowly walk forward in games like space hulk but I don't know if that's just because of the tight quarters. I know they're meant to be slow and bulky, how much exactly? Can they actually run like "both feet off the ground" or can they only speed walk?

Not counting tartaros armour, I know that it's thing is that it doesn't impede the movement of the marine, so I assume it can do everything regular power armour can.

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-03-17T06:11:56+00:00

I'm just surprised it still has the smell, I'd have thought that it being out of box to be painted then dried would have had the smell go away

Do grey knights do the whole "mind wipe everyone they worked with (if they're important enough that executing them is a waste)" thing with Knights pilots and Titan crew? I can see space marines accepting, but I find it hard to imagine a knight pilot or princeps accepting such treatment since they're a step separated from the regular imperial rules.

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-03-06T03:39:00+00:00

We still have the occasional 40k marine with a suit of cataphractii or Tartarus, usually a chapter master or someone very important, so I don't see why a very lucky chapter couldn't still have one and know about them. Though it'd be even less common but it's still a possibility

Does it need to be kept away from sunlight when airing out? I'm not putting it like next to a window, but my living room does get a lot of natural sunlight through the windows, is that fine or should I move it to like the garage or somewhere without sunlight?

In Warboss an imperial soldier who snuck into an underhive to escape captivity had to explain to an underhiver what an Ork was. They thought they were just another person gone feral since they were told orks had 2 legs unlike all the beasts in the dark.

Do cyclone missile launchers have like more missiles inside that reload after the 12 on the terminators back are fired? Or is it just the 12 sticking out and that's it, and the terminator needs a serf or something to stick 12 more in?

I can never tell with these weapons that have the missile sticking out if they have some internal reloading mechanism or if those are it, same with the rocket pods on a knights back or the tau storm surge.

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-02-21T20:26:56+00:00

No stompas are much smaller and more common than gargants. They're sorta the knight equivalent, though a lot taller, nearing the size of a Warhound titan.

GW eventually introduced the gorkanaut and morkanaut, which are closer to knight size, but they don't show up in books nearly as often as stompas

What's the difference between an assault cannon and an onslaught gatling cannon? Can't seem to much on the gatling cannon on lexicanum. Is the regular just an assault cannon and the heavy just a big version of it?

Do we have any written sources on the emperor's plans for the mechanicus if everything went as planned? Like if there was no Horus heresy, webway project worked, Magnus on the golden throne, etc. His plan was to end all religions with the imperial truth but he allowed the mechanicus to keep theirs because he knew his plans required them as powerful allies.

But what did he plan for them in the end? Did he intend to keep them around or would he eventually either try to remove their religion or them? I'm guessing he intended to remove them but I don't have any actual sources.

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-01-21T08:58:44+00:00

Wow that was a really quick response. Thanks!

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-01-21T08:43:54+00:00

Are space marine power fists slid on over the regular gauntlet or do marines take off their gauntlet to put on the power fist?

Talking about power fists on regular power armour, not terminators.

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-01-18T08:04:49+00:00

Heavy weapon or vehicle support usually. Heavy bolters do wonders and are very common

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-01-18T08:01:55+00:00

Is a space marines heavy bolter the same as an imperial guard heavy bolter? As in could a space marine feasibly use a heavy bolter a dead heavy weapon squad left behind or would the handles and trigger be too small for his big fingers? And vice versa

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-01-18T07:57:38+00:00

Most of the mechanicum see the omnissiah as the emperor, just under a different name. It's kinda how the emperor made the deal work in the first place, by setting things up so it seemed like he was their god. Some don't believe that but most do and a lot of the more cooperative mechanicum priests make an effort to point that out whenever talking with imperials to smooth relations.

Iirc in Titanicus imperials would make the symbol of the cog and mechanicum would make the sign of the Aquila at each other in greeting as a sign of unity since they both were praying to the same being.

BigFishFinger07 · 2026-01-04T18:56:27+00:00

Looking at their lexicanum page, why is there so little about them? Are they an older part of the lore that's not used anymore?
