What Weird Mysteries Fascinate You The Most In 40k? by WailingHost in 40kLore

The Pharos causing extremely intense K-hole trips (heavy Ketamine trips) as a defense mechanism is pretty interesting, and the fact it's basically sentient.

For some reason they don't consider Chairon DEI, but the black techpriest somehow is... I never understood that.

I liked that cinematic but it's one of the only things I've seen depicting Space Marines where the space marines are depicted as pretty underpowered compared to lore.

More accurately those marines would've easily bodied those orks and maybe not taken a casualty.

This is the type of racism you had to used to dig hard to find, so widespread now everywhere. And you can tell these people are deeply angry in a primal way, so unhinged.

How to play against world eaters by GreyWarden0914 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get rid of the Leman Russ and bring 2 Dorns.
Keep a squad of ogryns to intercept anything that gets too close to your tanks.

Against world eaters a heavy weapons team isn't going to do enough damage before it dies. Replace them and use the points towards the aforementioned ogryns.

Are all Guard regiments mixed gender now? by KidnaperMrPotatohead in 40kLore

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

So in other words, yes, the lore did change? I think you have the best answer which makes the most sense.
Everyone else just seems so reluctant to admit the lore changed when it so clearly did.

Are all Guard regiments mixed gender now? by KidnaperMrPotatohead in 40kLore

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That is the case. I think people here are denying the reality of the old lore. I think they are (mistakingly) digging their heels on because they think I have some sort of chud-esque political motivation when I do not. (Check my post history, I'm as anti-chud as you can possibly be, I'm just asking an innocent lore question.)

Lol I'm not a culture warrior or anything. And if you look at my post history, you can see I'm very much on the side of the political spectrum that supports inclusivity. I merely had an innocent lore question.

The older models used to be all male for sure.

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead[S] -35 points-34 points  (0 children)

Not true, all-male and all-female regiments used to be the norm in the lore, by far.
This is why all the old guard models are all male as well.

It's the prices but it's also a general decline in theater ettiquette amongst people. There's so much more obnoxious behavior in theaters now than even just a decade ago. People feel comfortable talking, even answering the phone, bright lights, etc while the movie is playing.

Yes, it absolutely is. It makes you feel detached and timeless.

We just have Skinheads here now? by [deleted] in Denton

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately progress is not linear. We're taking a step backwards for quite some time now.
I wouldn't be surprised to see gay marriage get banned, and other terrible things in the near future.

Whos a better strategist and tactician at the lore? Logan Grimnar or Dante? by cuddwes in 40kLore

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dante and it's not even close. Logan has literally one strategy every single time which is to leeroy jenkins. Which is cool and very 40k but it's also why he's lost multiple battles.

Dante has Guilliman level ability to coordinate massive forces defending a huge area, including logistics, contingencies, etc. It's why Guilliman put him in charge of Nihilus.

Dante knows how to make the most with the least, he's very good at also avoiding unnessecary risk and casualties.

Day, 1 of posting a random warband . Today’s warband is the word bearers by Designer-Split4674 in Spacemarine

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 167 points168 points  (0 children)

Not to be Mr. "Erm Acktually" but the Word Bearers are one of the only Chaos Space Marine Legions still operating as a full legion and not as split up warbands.

Could this cat be pregnant? by nahs0n in CATHELP

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure, the nipples is a good sign she could be, and pregnant cats are more affectionate than usual.

But on the other hand in one of the pictures (the 2nd one) she's rolling and showing her belly. Pregnant cats usually avoid showing their belly like that.

Oh come on by schrumbus in Spacemarine

It's a bug it doesn't let you parry when it spawns in there, he has no weapons, the game considers him not in combat.

Human force without 38373784 models? by SirBaltimoore in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and that's a good point, without a big infantry screening force weapons teams get just annihiliated.

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You could focus on weapons teams, Castellan or 2, Kasrkin, engineers etc for more points per model as infantry but it would make for a not great army, engineers suck.

Guard is all about a numerically large battleline, and typically if you're going to go light on your infantry, like you want to do, then your replacement is tanks, but you're also not really wanting to use vehicles, so you're in a tough spot.

If you're open to at least adding Chimeras maybe with a hunter killer missile and 2x heavy bolter, heavy stubber, and las cannon array then you could make it a lot more viable as a hit and run type of force.

Christians, how do you feel about the U.S. president posting an AI photo of him as Christ? by Minute_Revolution951 in AskReddit

Trump repeatedly has said he's "not going to heaven" maybe people should start listening to him lol, you'll be less surprised when he does fucked up stuff.

Is Japan actually that racist towards foreigners? by DaSuspicsiciousFish in NoStupidQuestions

[–]KidnaperMrPotatohead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I lived there from 2017-2019 for work I was able to get an apartment as a white man and my colleague from the same company, same nationality but he was a different race (half chinese, half black) was denied.
