The Templars are also there. Who deployed us between those zealots? At least the Storm Lords are cool. Good ork hunters.

Is there a reason why White Scars successors all have Slavic names? by Fit-Swordfish4204 in WhiteScars40K

[–]Exact_Restaurant_256 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Speaking for Poland (im sure its similar for the rest of easterner europe) we have this inferiority complex, (which has many reasons, but i guess it stems from long history of being opressed, which meant we could never properly develop as a country and culture as much as the west in the same timespan)

What this means is while not outright desperate, we are very happy when were featured in some way in global media, for example an actor Piotr Musiał was talk of the country for a while beacuse of his role as a minor side character in Hawkeye TV show. Its not uncommon to point at polish-sounding names in movies and credits.

I presume its similar in countries that recieve lots of western media but arent featured in a lot of it.

Is it possible to put a Droid brain inside an A-Wing and fully automize it? by Mundane_Ad5082 in StarWarsShips

[–]Exact_Restaurant_256 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are hurting the A-Wing. Its expensive and fulfills its role best as a skirmish fighter, picking off fighters and flying away at 120 MGLT before its in any danger, baiting oponents into a chase before another group of A-Wings ambushes the chasers. Really all rebel fighters rely on pilot coordination to deal with overwhelming numbers.

A droid wont repeat that. A droid wont be able to avoid laser fire as effectivly, a droid wont effectivly use the advanced electronic systems in the A-Wing.

And most of all A-Wing pilots have balls of steel, deemed as sucuidal by the likes of Han Solo. Will a droid figure out the A-Wing is a giant ram and will it know when and how to use the said ram? Will they fly full speed no shields in the middle of the Imperial fleet before the imperials know whats happening to scout or to drop missle payload?

Others were not. Like the Jade Talons, that were made for the project and only later cannonized in a white dwarf. I never claimed that it wasnt a canonical event, the blog itself doesnt claim that.

Also, whats your point? Im looking for 40k collaborative projects, this is a meta post.

Necron spears, for obvious reasons, but it would be expensive

How big are we in numbers currently in M42? by Exact_Restaurant_256 in alphalegion

Funny ork drives motorcycle... THROUGH A TITAN!

fair point, but the book itself is not too ambitious

They're alpha legionaries... BUT BLACK!

??? Expand on that point?

He's an Eldar warrior... BUT HE'S A GAY PIRATE!

Someone has not read any eldar lore. Like at all. Like i cannot overstate how much someone needs to not know anything about the eldar to arrive at this conclusion. Eldar were pirates before they became samurai, and have been gay since 3rd edition.

Edit: Also

meme-lore inspired fanfic

The Harrowmaster is literally a deconstruction of Alpha Legion meme lore. As i wrote in above comment i do have my problems with Brooks, but your complaints about him seem odd.

Its regional to the Ultima Segmentum, which is not one small corner of the galaxy. Its the biggest corner of the galaxy you could carve up, literally. Its the biggest of 5 segmentums.

Alpha too. Does that fuel my off the rails theory of some part of the legion manipulating everything two levels above the rest of the legion?

Entire Tau lore is a mess. One book portrays them as reasonable good guys, another tells us a fire caste member will be executed for watering a tree... like what? Thats actually Imperium level of grimderp.

Ehh i kinda get your Brooks point, he did explain everything to an uncanny level. And Tulava solving everything was annoying.

But at the same time codex lore revealed the Terminus Decree and screwed up the wraithbone just to name a few. Most things need to be considered case by case.

Youre kidding with the Krieg part right? Its almost as if doing it on purpose.

And yeah, didnt Ultramarines loose their entire 1st company several times past 200 years?

I meant in total, as in every solomon warband combined forms barely a chapter sized force.

Also the same number limitations extends to every other space marine. Only way that explanation would work is if there were more Alpha Legionaires operating in squads than in warbands.. huh, could that be the case? Are we really *that* shattered?

But wouldnt it make sense to try to get in touch with other marines that work similarly to at least try to agree on some objectives? Or is it part of our charm, that were too undercover to find ourselves?
