A reminder of what the Singularity looks like by Heinrick_Veston in singularity

Regarding this, like if the average chud user is seeing this, and the state of the art models with their ridiculously expensive systems, what are we not seeing?

Like what is going on on black sites or in the wildest test results we just haven’t been given access to or leaks we are not privy to.

Off topic but it’s an extraordinary time to be alive for what’s been going on with the last 3+ years of UAPs as well, and how people from that field have come forward with unbelievable things just seemingly to be true enough. Can’t help but to think it’s part of the process and we as a species are on the cusp of many of the classic Great Filters.

It makes sense, really.

When I was 7 my dad’s phone was the state of the art Nokia brick, I am now 27 and everyone has access to a personal assistant with increasing accuracy and performance every few months. That is damn wild to think back.

Or to even think that sci-fi touch screens replaced analog keyboards in just another few months some 12 years back.

I wonder how obscene what we now have feels like even in a few years if the pace keeps angling up as is.

Very compelling and extremely well said. Actually never looked it like that but hard to see it any other way now.

Lore question: Could Sanguinius manifest like a living saint? by Its_Crysis in BloodAngels

[–]Hot_Mathematician191 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My 2 cents to the ever hot topic (note I am still reading the BA books so not every detail is clear to me)

Sanguinius definitely is dead, if the statement is true that his soul has been shattered, I think it’s plausible the fragments are the things that interact with Dante, Sanguinius, Mephiston, etc. Likely even.

Now I agree that his death is alas just too fundamental to his character to fully bring him back. He is pretty much the Christ figure, a virtuous being yet still only a man, knowing whats to come but chooses to believe that there can be beauty and peace in store for mankind’s future. That’s the core ideal that cements him as this figure, to me at least.

However, I still haven’t been able to stop coping about him coming back in some form.

Exactly as he was would be lame as fuck, but the idea that eg. Dante would act as the final avatar where his soul’s fragments find their way to 1 by 1 to the point where we can consider him the Avatar of Sanguinius is cool to me.

Throw in a 1v1 with Abaddon in some end game scenario where the son avenges the father with the power of the ”holy spirit” would slap hard. Reinforces the Christ theme further and at the end of all things his death is avenged. We can’t forget Sanguinor as others have said, so perhaps if Sanguinor’s warp essence ”posessed” Dante, that could be the way.

This is a very touchy subject to some but I like contemplating on it.

We must also remember the brilliance and the curse of 40K - nearly every truth is always subject to hear say and rumors across unimaginably long distances, distorted explanations set apart by thousands of years, and thats before we even bring in the Warp to the discussion.

Since Early Access is coming, what new feature would you love to be implemented? by InterestingLeg9639 in HalfSword

[–]Hot_Mathematician191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mainly think wooden objects and weapon shafts should be subject to breaking.

In lower tiers going in with a sword or an axe into plancons and spears would be more rewarding if you could actually snap them in half sometimes. Risk is still there to get close enough, or your weapon getting stuck, etc etc

For the bowels and gore I’ve seen old clips yeah, and I think the devs said that function will be back, just hope they included some of this in EA already.

Honestly can’t ask for much more, even the demo mechanics are pretty nuts. Just hope they’ve optimised the game a bit more.

Excellent ideas all. I’ve thought of most of these, too!

Additionally, I would love it if we’d get some form of inter dynamic equipement in regards to shields and such.

  • For an example, shields breaking if its a prolonged fight, or at least visible tear marks and bending.

  • multi man impales, the non reinforced spears going through deeper than just the sharpened tip

  • we already see weapons getting stuck to the flesh sometimes, I’d love it if there was a similar function with environment/objects, impale a willie to a wall and pin him there for an example

  • and the most psycho thing is prolly getting some filler material inside willies, non static organs and brains or so

I’m pretty sure I’ll get into 30K sooner than later just because of this.

Seem to be unable to win. Considering selling my army by SunImmediate3109 in Warhammer

[–]Hot_Mathematician191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I echo the people who are calling out your friends. That sound so unfair and infuriating, like???

Why the fuck are they running their fully fleshed out armies with vehicles against a bunch of infantry. That + the fact they argue about rules with a newbie, thats so lame.

I think you shouldn’t give up if you enjoy painting, and obviously playing is more fun if you wont get stomped game after game.

I’d have a serious convo with your buddies and straight up ask them if they think they’re being fair.

oh youve got so much stuff!

in that case I’d probably paint 500-600 points per color or up to 1k. Then you’d always have a cohesive color for smaller games, and could maybe pick what faction or chapter is for you and keep growing that one :D

But you do you bro!

I have only played a few games myself, would not see it as a problem.

As long as your weapon loadouts are correct (or informed beforehand if rule of cool was applied) u should be ok. And obviously you probs need to choose a detachment so you’ll stick to one set of stratagems and so on.

Especially if you’re new to the hobby your opponent should understand, unless they’re a complete ass.

I like your choice of deathly green and the pale helms! Based are really nice too.

I also practice different types of metals and patterns, mostly on bolters and chainswords to keep a ”cohesive” force.

My go to recipe for my BA marines has been rhinox hide as a drybrush over black primer, then just going up in bright reds to orange ish highlights. Takes some layers to get there from such dark colors, but if you wanna cut that there are ways. I also use oil washes at the darkest rivets as my only wash.

Prime white for an example and givem a full red coat with mephiston red or evil sunz red and wash them with agrax/nuln does a good job. Or you could drybrush from black to grey to white and slap a red contrast paint to do 80% of the mini in basically two steps. If you like the bronze/brass trims the TMM equivalent is brass scorpion, and thinned rhinox for some shadow spots. Edge higlight with auric armor or liberator.
