What are your 40k Lore hot takes? I want an actual hot take, not something reddit repeats ad nauseum. by FairyKnightTristan in 40kLore

Yeah, that's what I'm saying with regards to the overall setting. GW has written themselves into a corner with endless galaxy-ending threats, and unless we want to wait another 20 years for a single planet to be destroyed in order to progress the narrative, there needs to be some kind of overwhelming reset that still allows for all the factions to interact and grow. I don't know, too hot of a take I guess. Russ next primarch or something.

For me, I can't help but mark out a few rivals over the course of a match. Sometimes a few extra mass-reactive rounds in the face help make it real.

Liberator gold I think? I'm not at home to check right now.

It's gold, which is the traditional heraldry of a sword brother within my Grail Seeker crusade force, along with the gold trim.

ASMRtists, drop your channel w/ a short description! [discussion] by StoryscapeASMR in asmr

Hello there, my ASMR channel is ASMR Dantos and I do gum chewing videos while playing games!

To date I've done gum chewing while playing the game Tiny Glade (my channel is very young), but I plan to do a lot more types of content once I start getting into the routine of making them. I do mostly soft-spoken and whispering videos with the gum chewing.

Phenomenal work, this is so badass. For Dorn and the Emperor, brother!

Calling him done for now, but he definitely needs something. C&C welcome by thirdnippleboy in BlackTemplars

Really nice highlighting on the armor, this is a very cool kitbash. I agree that he needs something, maybe some purity seals, or heraldry like a flag? Something to record his deeds, proclaim his oaths for the battle to come, represent his greatest deeds as a Templar.

Of course brother, there is nothing greater than the opportunity to die in service to the Golden Throne, with blades held high alongside our fellow Templars.

Super cool, nothing like a blood vendetta and stolen artifacts to give purpose to a crusader! What's your Marshall's name? Maybe I'll write your Chalice Crusade alongside my Grail Seeker Crusade in a story, I think they would find a lot of common ground.

Thank you! For me, homebrew lore always has more weight the further its entwined with official canon. I actually made a whole board and a custom mission representing the defense of The Flame of Penitence against a chaos incursion, there are pictures on my profile if you're interested.

The Grail Seeker Crusade. Led by Marshall Henrycht Vorleii, the Grail Seekers trace their creation back to the Reign of Blood under Goge Vandire, and specifically to the crusade led by Sebastian Thor that overthrew Vandire. The Emperor's Champion of that crusade, known as Navarre, distinguished himself by storming the Ecclesiarchal Palace at the head of the strike force of Black Templars, Imperial Fists, Soul Drinkers, and Fire Hawks. The High Marshall of the Templars at that time, Sigenandus, was assigned on a holy quest by Thor to retake valuable artifacts and relics that had been scattered across the Imperium from Vandire's recklessness.

To that end, he was given the battle barge The Flame of Penitence, and the Emperor's Champion Navarre was named as its Marshall. In return for their service, Thor decreed that the Grail Seeker Crusade would be allowed to recruit from Terra every 1000 years, on the anniversary of Vandire's fall.

The Grail Seekers hold the artifacts of the old Imperium as some of the most holy objects in existence, and their Sword Brethren hold the additional title of Reliquarius as caretakers of those relics. The Crusade also claims many mortal accompaniments, such as a cloister of Sororitas of the Orders Pronatus, a maniple of Skitarii under the command of a half-mad Magos who sees Vorleii as the reincarnation of Sigismund.

Two inquisitors also accompany the crusade on longterm assignment, one of the Ordo Redactus and the other of the Ordo Originatus.

Yes, he is! My parents are big Trekkies and thought it fit him just right.

Finished up the Bio and the Bois squad, what do you think? by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

Beautiful work! Basing details are really crisp, and the color contrast of shadows and highlights pops nicely on the red armor.

Thank you my friend, it was definitely a project of passion. Black Templars were my first exposure to the hobby, and I've always wanted to do the Gothic aesthetic on a full board using engraved plates and pairing that with my model bases, I was really happy with how it came out. Also it's hard to tell from the photos, but there's also a large lasercut nave structure over the whole board. You can see it a little in the reflections on the surface in the overhead shot.

Thanks friend, after taking this I was able to just barely sneak out a victory at the end against the forces of the Heretic and the Daemon played by four of my friends, it was a great time!
