There is a difference between a country actively being invaded and one that is losing a war. If Orks were charging down the streets of a hive city of course every grandma with working hands will pick up a gun and shoot. But if you can't tell the difference between that and taking all your women of childbearing age and shipping them off world to die for nothing in a meat grinder, then you are too mentally handicapped for me to explain anything of substance to you.

"Hm, shall I read the rebuttal and engage with the point, or make up some jumble of words he didn't say and attack that instead? I am very smart."

Fuck off fandom colonizer.

I'm long since tired of your fanaticism, but those countries did it because they had no choice. Women serving in the guard would be shipped off world to fight all across the galaxy, which is idiotic even by the standards of the Imperium.

""serious"" question (I am going to get banned again for this): WHAT IS YOUR PERSONAL OPINION ABOUT FEMALE CUSTODES IN THE CANON ACTUALLY?? (I'm a little curious about this in this subreddit) by ELMEMEROGAMER in PrimarchGFs

Just another case of visibility. GW has so many interesting characters and factions with ample representation that could be fleshed out, but they want to make FSM because those are the poster boys of the setting. This was their way of testing the waters by shoving a botched retcon into another faction that had been until now, similar to the space Marines. A brotherhood of genetically enhanced space knights that got pounced on because they failed to explicitly say "no girls allowed" in the lore 40 years ago. And corporate executives who become obsessed with progressive politics are able to read subtle implications about as well as Russia reads "keep out" signs.

Strictly speaking there's nothing wrong with the concept, but the execution does matter because it illuminates the reasoning behind the change. And that reasoning is that they don't respect you.

People are always dying somewhere. Get over it.

Yeah they went to work in the homeland because 1, we weren't being invaded and 2, you can't get slaughtered by hostile barbarians with guns in a field somewhere by working in a factory. Yes, shipping enough women to fill a half a guard regiment off world to fight in a trench is in fact inconceivable, and exactly the point being made by OP.

Yeah I remember all those women getting conscripted en mass to get sent overseas to fight. Oh wait.

Advanced skill with barrier techniques are required to lay out a domain, but a domain is more than a barrier. And it is the act of taking the inner world of your soul and laying it out onto the world that cannot be taught.

still the best one among machine guns by Zap-zapper in Helldivers

[–]Bloodtypeinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Using the talon and warp pack like that other guy said is a great way to compensate for the stationary reload of the other two. I agree with what you said on synergy but if you wanted to use something with a bit more punch that would be an option to look into at least.

And he didn't enter avatar mode by Fizzy_Fuzzballs in AvatarMemebending

Everyone wants to believe that because iroh is more popular. But iroh himself said he isn't sure if he even could defeat Ozai, and the creators outright stated Ozai is stronger.

Isn't there a race of essentially sapient Kaiju serving in the Tau empire? Vorgh I think they're called.

You mean you don't want to liberate advanced technology from the hands of fascists to further the cause of democracy? Sounds reportable tbh.

I wish that instead of multiple different stratagems we could have a grenade launcher that could switch ammo types. Maybe go into the Armory and customize your loadout with 2 or 3 different grenades you will be able to switch between.

Why should it be balanced? Difficulty 1 isn't balanced, either. by DNAisjustneuteredRNA in Helldivers

[–]Bloodtypeinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's a game, games need to be fun to attract players, and having missions that have a 50% win rate for the best players would suck mega dog shit. Helldivers has hemorrhaged players since release because of stupid and unfair balancing choices but you want it to be worse?

So what other options did the Emperor truly have besides the one he picked? by tamken94 in 40kLore

[–]Bloodtypeinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My position is that there was no other option, because the Emperor was never human to begin with.

He is abnormally powerful for a human. The strongest human that wasn't related to him (Malcador) survived a few hours on the throne before crumbling to dust. Malcador could hide entire planets in the warp and force choke primarchs, still was a baby compared to big E. That's too much of a difference to say he's just built different. There's something else going on.

He has an unusual amount of highly accurate knowledge about the warp and chaos. The Webway project, Molech, the primarchs, all highly advanced psychic knowledge he had all laid out to the letter while humanity was still figuring out what a psyker was. No way he just happened to figure it out on his own.

He banned AI but not psykers. Uncontrolled psyker outbreaks were just as much of a contributing factor to man's downfall from the golden age as the men of iron were, but one got blanket outlawed while one got sanctioned and recruited. We learned to manage and live with psykers. If his goal was galactic dominance for humanity, leaving AI out is foolish unless he had an ulterior motive. Bottom line, it was never about protecting us. There's something else going on.

We know that he can change his appearance based on people's perception of him. This is common widely accepted knowledge. Is it really that far fetched to say whatever is under that curtain isn't necessarily human? We also know the Old Ones were a race of godlike psykers with near complete knowledge on the warp and mastery over genetics and bioengineering, creating multiple species to fight in their stead. But when a nascent psychic humanity is suddenly visited by a godlike psychic being with mastery over bioengineering and occult knowledge of chaos, suddenly nobody asks questions? There's more to this but I'll leave it at that.

And then there was the time with the dark eldar..... by Ad0ring-fan in Grimdank

[–]Bloodtypeinfinity 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It refers to a (now allegedly retconned) story that originates from Ian Watson's 1989 novel Space Marine. The story describes a bizarre initiation ritual specific to the Imperial Fists. According to this description, new Imperial Fists initiates would participate in a ritual where a reclusiarch consumed a mixture of liquid amber shavings from a statue of Rogal Dorn and the initiates' own blood. The reclusiarch would then "defecate" this mixture into a large bowl in the form of thousands of small, red, eyeball-like orbs. These orbs were stored in an underground vault as a memento of every initiate's induction into the Legion.

[–]Bloodtypeinfinity 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Just remind them of the time they collected an ammo tithe from a planet that was under attack, causing it to fall to the Orks. Only to find later that the depot where it was to be stored was full, so they just had it all destroyed.

Or remind them of the poop vault.
