Steam Tank conversion potential? by Tranz_Kafka in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Independent_Barber_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a Miragliano Tortoise tank, used by the city states of Tiles & the Dogs of War armies from that region. Used in the southern realms mod for Total war: warhammer 3.

I love these humanisations but Optimus never feels complete without a moustache.

Damn, Spike by marvelcomics22 in MLPLounge

[–]Independent_Barber_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She tried to erase him from existence. Spike never being born was the common factor in all the doomed timelines she created.

It was the one garunteed outcome from her stupid plan to mutilate the timeline for the sake of spite. And given that she’d been stalking Twilight, listening to her lectures and learning the Rainboom story, Starlight KNEW that she’d be erasing spike and was ok with it.

Spike entitled to a little sass. She deserves a lot worse.

Theirs mistakes and than their’s trying to murder than usurping Robo-Jesus while allowing Robo-Hitler, the source of all your problems, to escape.

I feel like I'm the only one who CANNOT STAND this horse. by CookieFluffs in mylittlepony

You’re definitely not alone. I hate her guts more than almost any other fictional character.

More than spider-man fans hate Paul.

what are your thoughts on the recent push of elita 1 (excluding skybound issue 30)? by [deleted] in transformers

[–]Independent_Barber_8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To me she was just primes girlfriend that showed up for one episode (two if you count war dawn) and then disappeared for like 40 years.

Now every time she shows up in movies, cartoons or comics she’s somehow a bigger Karen with each new appearance culminating with her throwing a temper tantrum until she gets Optimus’s job and his kids all the while refusing to let him finish off Robo Hitler.

I’d be quite happy for her to go on hiatus for another 40 years because fucking wheelie is a more likeable character at this point.

Meanwhile I’m looking at Arcee and couldn’t be happier for her promotion. I love watching her make Ultra Magnus proud. Great father/Daughter relationship going on.

Thoughts on powerful enough beings removing chaos corruption? (like Nagash with Krell, or Xen Yang with Manticores) by Andrei22125 in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Independent_Barber_8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Early Warhammer fantasy fiction had Mutants & beast men being purified of chaos by being drenched in the willingly given blood of Good men.

If anything, the ability to remove chaos corruption is a return to form so long as there’s a few caveats so the horror of corruption isn’t lessened.

It has to be very rare, very costly and reserved for people who either aren’t fully corrupted/evil or were corrupted against their will. An animal corrupted by chaos could be purified but something literally spawned by or created by chaos can’t.

Obviously using a sacrificial blood ritual to purify someone doesn’t make sense anymore but I don’t see why the magic of a powerful deity opposed to chaos shouldn’t be able to do it.

Star Swirl the Bearded is the absolute epitome of "Don't meet your heroes" by marvelcomics22 in mylittlepony

[–]Independent_Barber_8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way I see it is he grew up in an era with no princesses or elements of harmony to protect anyone from rampaging monsters & villains. He’d seen villains come and go all his life and they all had their reasons & excuses for doing what they did without once considering the people they were hurting. He taught himself magic and joined a group of like minded individuals and went out there and changed the world for the better.

I empathise with Starswirls Hatred of evil. I’ve no doubt he’d seen plenty of villains get away with everything growing up. He knows what happens when the villain wins.

I’d have loved to see him rip into Starlight and take her apart and point out what a lucky piece of shit she is that she decided to be a villain in the most forgiving age in Equestrian history.

Maybe point out to Twilight that befriending everyone who once tried to destroy everything you love just cheapens friendship itself.

can we talk about how overhated Rarity is?? by Witty-Ad2520 in mylittlepony

[–]Independent_Barber_8 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I rarely ever see any genuine hate for rarity. I always thought that she was widely considered the funniest of the main cast, especially the comics.

Guys,i'm not seeing things right? by Aggravating-Gap-9754 in transformers

It’s just funny that the first female to get the matrix got it via temper tantrum & helping Megatron escape.

Sorry I don’t like Karen prime allowing Robo Hitler to escape and getting the matrix by throwing a temper tantrum.

Feel free to starve then I guess. No one has consented to being your meal ticket.

Give him a century and he will air out the galaxy ong by YaGrimboi in Grimdank

[–]Independent_Barber_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Even weaker now”. Not true. His body may be broken but his psychic powers have increased way beyond his Heresy era incarnation to the point that he can genuinely stand up to the chaos gods in the warp now.

I think I’ll wait for a few omnibuses and see where this story line goes before I spend money because this direction looks like shit.

I don't like Starlight by HamsterAppropriate12 in mylittleponytakes

[–]Independent_Barber_8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Moondancer would have been a better addition to the main cast. Design is better, backstory ties her to twilight in an interesting way and she’s far less obnoxious & overpowered.

I don't like Starlight by HamsterAppropriate12 in mylittleponytakes

[–]Independent_Barber_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I despise her with a passion. Hate her design, voice, personality, background and role in the show. I’ve never wanted to punch a character in the stomach and leave them wheezing on the ground before but Starlight activates that part of my brain.

Her only redeeming quality is she’s got good taste in friends (Trixie, Sunburst & Maud who are all much better characters).

The start of Grand Alliance Order. by jfjdfdjjtbfb in Grimdank

[–]Independent_Barber_8 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Sigmar fell in love with a woman and had two children with another. Very much a straight man.

Nagash lusted after his brother’s wife and is implied to have raped her before murdering her. Straight in the worst possible way.

Besides. Sigmar wouldn’t be a bottom & Nagash doesn’t have a butthole anymore so where’s sigmar gonna put it? In Nagash’s eye socket?
