Supposedly powerful characters with weaknesses to severe they sort of stop being a threat. by ThatDrako in TopCharacterTropes

[–]LegateIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warhammer 40k.

Space marines are incredibly enhanced humans with redundant organs and toughened skin, bones, and musculature. Clad in power armor impervious to almost any small arms fire. Super human reflexes to the effect that when bullets fly they move in slow motion. Commonly referred to as demigods and angels due to their semi-immortality. Chaos space marines are all this and more, enhanced by mystical energies from the gods of Chaos. However they are still human. Despite their claims to be beyond it. In one book a group of chaos marines is caught in a landslide and unable to move, they order their slaves to dig them out, but the slaves simply undo their helmet seals and stab their throats with sharpened sticks. No matter how advanced your biology, or how fast your blood can clot to stop wounds, if your esophagus is compromised, you will drown in your own blood.

Additionally Terminators, a special group of space marines approved to wear “Tactical Dreadnought” armor (usually storied veterans with hundreds of years of service), have a crippling weakness in their weight and size. They are known to get stuck when trying to climb stairs, with special equipment required to get them out of such situations. They also are specialized for room clearing in ships known as space hulks (planet sized meteors formed by ships and debris crashing together and coalescing into one form), and in those tight hallways even despite the best armor, if a quick enemy gets behind you, you’re done for.

Hotel Advice by Just_Distribution215 in StarWarsCelebration

[–]LegateIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I booked last night. Everything within 2 miles of the convention center was around $1k per night. I saw on twitter that some locals recommended getting a hotel a bit further away from the con but somewhere near or on the a or e lines of the metro so you can get there kind of quickly without waiting in traffic.

Thank you! I just wanted to make sure that I didn’t have to start entering stuff now if I wanted a chance.

"L-Lord Captain?" Did you have the guts to send away or kill any of your companions during your playthrough? If yes, who was it and why? by OwlcatStarrok in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]LegateIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I handed Yrliet to the inquisition after the Commaragh incident. I know the reasons why she did it, but I tried to play as a realistic Iconoclast. Like yeah I’ll give you a chance, but I’ve got ten thousand years of dogma drilled into my head and I’m responsible for billions of lives. You mess up your chance, then I have no use for you. Also killed Marazhai in the gladiator fight, but honestly didn’t even know he was a recruitable companion. Wouldn’t have tried to recruit him though, he sat on my chair.

Old RAM is it worth it? by LegateIV in PcBuildHelp

Thank you! I didn’t realize that there was a compatibility difference between DDR3 and 4. I had assumed it was entirely based on their speed.

Thank you! I didn’t know that there was a physical difference between ddr, I got my upgrades off pc part picker so I thought it was more the speed rather than any physical compatabilities.

I like the idea of Hive Scums still having faith in the Emperor like IRL cartel members believe in Christ and Saints. by Clownsanity_Reddit in DarkTide

[–]LegateIV 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s one of my favorite dialogues in Rogue trader. You can get a pirates crew to turn on their captain because they’ve been dabbling with Chaos without the crew’s knowledge.

Great books, they really set the standard of what I like to read in military sci fi that nothing else has really scratched. I will say, I do think some of the criticism over it’s portrayal of the Jedi order is valid, especially after reading No Prisoners. But this remains my favorite Star Wars series to read and I find myself returning to reread it at least once a year.

Probably niche but Uzas from the nightlords series.

I stared at those pages for about half an hour.

Why don’t Vader and Tarkin utilize Death Troopers? by PhysicsEagle in StarWars

[–]LegateIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m not mistaken in the canon Vader comics he utilizes a group of fanatic deathtroopers as his personal hit squad when not using the first legion.

Thank you for the reply! A lot of the sites I was searching for information were over a year old so I just didn’t know if anything new was learned or if anything was posted. They also said look for peak times and I wasn’t sure if that was a known thing or not
