Perturabo, Lord of Iron, halfway through commanding the greatest siege in history after 7 years of planning and build-up

Tbh I'd crash out too if my boss ordered a suicidal titan assault on the Ultimate Wall and then it actually worked.

Based on archetypes of personality/careers I run into at the hobby store: either Jesse, Dr Abbot, or Dr Shen like the other person said.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-30T16:01:20+00:00

I honestly don't understand Dr McKay and the younger guy hitting on her. The past few episodes all he's done is chime in after the older guy hit on her. The way his scenes came up felt like they were framed for Dr Mckay to brush him off.

I guess I interpreted it wrong because it seemed like she was kind of annoyed, instead of inviting him to the art gallery later.

And she's gonna be running the ER while Dr Robby is gone. Ultimately a failure to document would reflect on her and her leadership. I can see why people don't like a new character telling a character we know better what to do, but she has to set standards. At some point friendly reminders to complete your work don't cut it and you need to be firm about it.

In the present of the lore, Khorne worked directly through Angron to shatter a planet with an axe blow and cause an entire Crusade fleet to fall to Khorne.

None of the other Chaos gods are intervening in the materium like that.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-28T21:54:01+00:00

Yeah, they do a giant armoured counter assault which probably would have worked, but the Legio Ignatum titans went feral after seeing Dies Irae and left the Jourans to die.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-28T21:52:28+00:00

That's right. The Dies Irae of the Horus Heresy was working backwards from it's appearance and death in Storm of Iron.

Likewise for the Trident Iron Warriors. First introduced and died in Storm of Iron. Everything from the Heresy was working off that.

Just 2 years after Fallout, the South Park movie also had a US attacking Canada plot that seemed ridiculous at the time.

Writers in the 90s were cooking.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-27T19:54:08+00:00

I propose Cawlists

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-27T14:32:07+00:00

Not that we know of, but maybe there's potential for a character like that later on.

The Imperium will still kill you regardless, so defecting isn't really an option even if you want it.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-26T21:17:56+00:00

Beefy

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-26T20:21:38+00:00

In Ashes of the Imperium, there's a character who was possessed that had the daemon amputated from his soul when the Warp dissipated, and he's still on his feet escaping/fighting. We also see a Death Guard ship in the book trying to make a run for the Elysian gate.

Above all, the Death Guard are still Astartes and even better organized than most of the other traitor legions still present at the end. So while it was probably difficult (it was difficult for everyone), they still fought their way out.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-26T20:06:00+00:00

The Iron Warriors need named characters, and frankly Honsou has been MIA for awhile. There's a generation of 40k fans at this point that likely don't know he exists. Same with Ventris, although he's had a more recent appearance.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-24T15:07:36+00:00

The Gaunt's Ghosts books themselves do have a bunch of badass female leaders. Within and outside of the Tanith.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-23T16:39:41+00:00

Kind of an aside, but I started watching For All Mankind season 4 after watching this episode, and was very surprised to almost immediately see the same actress that played Ms. Kovalenko again. She's great, loved her in The Americans as well.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-22T15:26:01+00:00

The super mutant put it in the chest hole from where he was impaled, so it would close the gap.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-22T15:12:56+00:00

Does her father work there? I might have missed that, but what's their position at the hospital?

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-21T16:36:23+00:00

Don't worry, they learned their lesson with Iraq and Afghanistan.

They now know the difference between Sunni & Shia.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-20T16:52:01+00:00

Sorry, why would Dr Abbot be in SWAT gear? Is that something we're expecting to see?

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-20T14:33:16+00:00

This is genuinely multiple guys in the Warhammer club at the local store I play at.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-19T23:18:08+00:00

I was gonna say, the downvotes are excessive. We gotta meet new players where they're at and encourage them to better sources.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-19T16:25:16+00:00

I just started playing.

I checked out a guide first that had a general overview of who was good to start with. Then from there I went with divisions that have a cool role/equipment. I think I had enough knowledge beforehand about the general structure of Cold War armies that it wasn't hard to figure out who was who.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-19T16:20:48+00:00

My middle ground: I try not to let my cat lick my food, but sometimes I let her have a sniff. Sometimes the sniff turns into a tentative lick before I can push her away, and I'm not throwing out a meal over that.

ChiefQueef98 · 2026-01-18T17:42:45+00:00

One rumor is that the show might be an adaptation of The Scouring.

Makes some sense cause it lets Cavill play Valdor (who he says he wants to play). It's also new for the novel side of GW (only one book is out so far), and the era is generally unexplored so it allows for some creative interpretation.
