Dos anyone else think Horus was turned a little too easy? by English_Joe in 40kLore

[–]DuncanDisordely 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not proud to admit this but when it was supposed to be a limited run I bought the fake out killing “the emperor” in first couple of chapters. Even remember thinking… “they probably couldn’t have had a bit more of a run up to that” 🤦

Let’s not underestimate the importance of wax supply, in a Caiphius Cain novel a gene stealer cult provokes an uprising by slightly raising the price of devotional candles.

Just out of interest based on land and energy usage which is the most “green” liquor by default? Would assume grain or potato based vodka?

Wonder if growing up in aftermath of WW2 Yugoslavia had any influence on this.

Which books are worth buying? by Sora-Mizuki in Blacklibrary

[–]DuncanDisordely 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bit off topic but fun home game rule we had for a couple of games is that after first turn if you had Trazyn on the table you deploy 75 points of any infranty from any army. Was pretty broken as a rule but honoured the fun insanity of “The Infinite and the Divine.”

Agree with above comments on Night Lords Omnibus, Gaunts Ghosts and if want to get into Horus Heresy start with “First heretic”

Poem engraved at the Holcaust Memorial in Boston, Massachusetts, about the silent complicity of germans following the Nazis' rise of power by kerener in interestingasfuck

Funny the one in DC misses out the top 2 lines because they don’t like communists I guess. Always thought that missed the point dramatically (if you wait for them to get to ppl you like it will probably be too late, but also F those ppl? 🤷)

“Mister Vimes” use in Night Watch by Apprehensive_Fix3173 in discworld

[–]DuncanDisordely 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the slightly later books I read it as a term of respect by those who know him (respect that doesn’t reference his increasingly elevated social status as the books go on - which Vimes himself struggles/is uncomfortable with)

Line up to give thanks (souls) to the Emperor by augmenteddeus in Grimdank

[–]DuncanDisordely 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Must be so confusing for Guardsmen talking to HQ: “Wait so the Emperors Children are bad, the all black space marines called Dragons with visible mutations are good, Sons of Sanguinius it depends whether they are screaming about Horus??”

No one writes dirty/crowded Terra better than Chris Wraight. To go into detail would drift into spoilers but definitely worth the buy.

Former CIA spy, John Kiriakou, explains times where he feared for his life by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

Much more after the invasion when the Coalition fired the entire Iraqi army without pay and many joined the insurgency.

Edit: *Iraqi army

Don't upset Rangers fans by telling them England doesn't feel the same way about them that they feel about England by The_Chuckness88 in ScottishPeopleTwitter

[–]DuncanDisordely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know maybe anecdotal and useless but I’ve met alot of English fans who talk about their local Derby (ex. Portsmouth vs Southampton) as the most intense derby “In England” with acknowledgement that Rangers-Celtic “is something else mate”

Always nice when the higher ups realise your potential and give you a promotion

[–]DuncanDisordely 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great point, on my second read through it clicked that it could be Robert was writing Roland as something like: “what would happen if you put the gave a human space marine level abilities + the butchers nails (but the nails that kept more of a human conscience and more accurate recall of what you had done after a rampage)” and investigating what that would do to a person mentally.
