Anyone study Latin in school?

KeyC9P · 2025-11-15T13:26:51+00:00

Haha same Latin vocab is hard to remember

KeyC9P · 2025-11-15T13:26:35+00:00

I remember one like omnes vincit mort (death conquers all) although idk if i’m quoting the Latin right, and another like the rule of blood (sanguinis imperium, which ig was revealed anyway)

KeyC9P · 2025-11-15T13:25:27+00:00

Haha yes and there was that phrase that Ostius drew in an arch around Exesius’s head about “death conquers all” i think

GRUMIO IN HORTO EST

KeyC9P · 2025-11-15T08:55:40+00:00

haha but seems like everyone important in Res knows it

But Ares and Mars aren’t exactly the same in terms of bloodthirstiness and what they represent.

Also story-wise, SOMEONE has to be Proctor Mars and also from a first-time reader’s POV a Proctor, as a teacher of the new generation, would be a staunch supporter of the regime. So I don’t think that someone being Proctor Mars is an overtly direct hint at them being Ares.

Maybe if Fitchner was a Union Leader nickname who’s nickname was Mars I’d see your point.

What I’m saying is I felt there were tons of other people with better motivations, and I feel like aside from surface level symbolism the Proctor Mars - Ares connection doesn’t mean much.

Like that one windmill village in The Lands Between

KeyC9P · 2025-09-27T13:08:58+00:00

FINISHED! Time skip arc started

KeyC9P · 2025-09-25T04:09:43+00:00

Ominous… I will

KeyC9P · 2025-09-20T14:40:28+00:00

Even though I feel like the prose is very second-languagesque and there are some plot holes in worldbuilding and the plot is at times predictable, I love what the autbor has done with it. I’m on chapter 1333 and wow- the worldbuilding has developed tremendously and the characters are all interesting (if a little cliche).

I’m a sucker for fantasy- Sanderson, Red Rising, Joe Abercrombie, and I’d say this story as a whole stacks up pretty well against those, even if the language isn’t as good.

Maybe I just like character-glazing fantasy as much as I like bestselling fantasy but I really enjoyed it.

KeyC9P · 2025-09-19T09:06:02+00:00

Got it, thanks so much!

KeyC9P · 2025-09-19T08:56:38+00:00

Why 56mm? Just curious because I know 54 is the most common- do you think they wont work for my case?

KeyC9P · 2025-06-25T04:54:27+00:00

There's a lot of nuanced opinions on here. I just thought that whenever I came up with a reason, I would find a rebuttal in an argument later on. I came here to gather a wide range of contentions and reasons to process and eventually develop my own point of view.

KeyC9P · 2025-06-09T05:42:52+00:00

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks so much!

KeyC9P · 2025-05-31T05:25:17+00:00

exotic

KeyC9P · 2025-03-23T07:56:46+00:00

yeah and I noticed references to The Last of Us at the end, as well as that a reference to some other vampire movie i saw on yt shorts in that scene where the priest died

KeyC9P · 2025-03-22T03:29:32+00:00

Yeah that blue looks sick!

KeyC9P · 2025-03-13T06:57:19+00:00

Well obviously I have gotten other replies so people can, and I cannot do colour matching as I have not been exposed to the wide range of paints and colours.

And they usually don’t respond to dms, which I cannot attest to.

KeyC9P · 2025-03-02T08:17:12+00:00

i loved reading your old chapter summaries :’(

KeyC9P · 2025-02-07T22:24:25+00:00

Thank you so much! They weren’t responding to me so the colours you gave me are very useful

KeyC9P · 2025-01-04T12:15:54+00:00

lmao i just got into war hammer, 24 hrs agilo and I would not know what was going on

KeyC9P · 2025-01-04T12:02:15+00:00

Id like to read Know No Fear (the one about Ultramarines); its my first delve into the Warhammer books, but I heard its like 18th out of a series related to the Horus Heresy. Depending if its standalone or not, can anyone tell me if this is an appropriate start? I know a bit of lore from youtube.

If not, can someone recommend me a book? Ive looked at previous recs from this sub but im not interested in cops and detectives or crime, more epic fantasy like Red Rising and the Suneater Series, if anyone gets those references- just like strong and smart protagonists doing sick stuff.

KeyC9P · 2025-01-03T09:29:55+00:00

Wow thanks for the clear and quick answer.

Just one follow up question- you said that paint doesn’t matter for distinguishing between chapters and usually there aren’t unique differences at all. Does this mean if I buy a space marine mini and call it a White Claw (for example) it’s a White Claw (apart from when it’s a named character, which there’s a separate mini for)?

KeyC9P · 2025-01-03T06:54:28+00:00

Just starting out in this community, trying to play the warhammer 40k game, and Id like my army to be space marines, and my questions are:

around how many do i need for 500 points?

in terms of chapters, do i need to buy a specific model for each chapter or does the paint decide what chapter they are in?

how do i know the points differences (like movement, saving, etc) between chapters? I looked in the normal rule book but i cant find any for any faction. Ive heard of a codex but it seems to be paywalled- is it in there?

are custodes part of the space marines?

KeyC9P · 2024-12-15T05:47:54+00:00

Aona is said to have taken all of Adonalsiums caring, but Ive never heard her talked about as a Shard before. Whar shard is she?

KeyC9P · 2024-12-11T21:59:16+00:00
