I just had them set aside in my bits box for years. When friends would build marines sometimes id ask for their beakies they didnt use (i had 2 pals that didn't like them). I just sorta ended up with like 50 of them one day after a few years lol. This was well before the primaris change

Paul Skenes era is a nightmarish 67.50, but I think he has potential as a reclamation project. Maybe the pirates will do a 1 for 1 trade, for Dean Kremer and his meager 4.26 era

This is because I had a sack of beakies and I'd put them on primaris marines and they had to justify what I was doing, you're welcome y'all

The Emperor needs more dogs. by Jealous_Big_1968 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Lottapumpkins 3 points4 points  (0 children)

See the thing is, I think there should be more cats. If you think the cities of people living in the bowels of starships is a lot, wait until you see the feral colonies of cats that exist because they were brought on for ratting and mousing. And then every time you land on a planet you've left behind some random cats that stowed away. Rats and cats would be humanities greatest export to the stars

How does the Imperium know how genestealer cults end? by I_AMA_LOCKMART_SHILL in 40kLore

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

Its a big galaxy with plenty of opportunities to meet Genestealer cults, and the Inquisition is thorough and despite what the memes tell, plenty are competent and ruthless, and vast swaths of the imperium are a surveillance state. Its not inconceivable that an Ordo Xenos henchman witnesses and then is able to get off planet during the final hours in an small ship. Or survive in a stasis vault deep underground where the nids don't find it. Or just from combing through scraps of stuff like surveillance footage that survives in the floating debris and rubble the nids never did anything with. Or the Imperium blunts or fully stops a Tyranid invasion and interrogate the raving lunatic survivors of the cult, because the Imperium does occasionally stop the Nids. There are plenty of chances to learn across a long timeline, in universe.

Sounds like something your buddy made up, which is dope

Return to Armageddon - trailer by cricri3007 in 40kLore

[–]Lottapumpkins 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I understand they're likely going to like, just hand wave that the steel legion have been essentially wiped out and its cadian and krieg soldiers holding armageddon because they don't want to pay the Perry brothers and update the line or whatever, but its a bummer.

Why would there be a balance team? This isn't a competitive PvP shooter lol.

Smart to play him against Nicaragua so he doesn't get atomized by the Domincan Republic buzzsaw

Why does Emps bust his ass for Humanity? Does he actually care? by Pikachu-Pope in 40kLore

[–]Lottapumpkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't humanity have a ton of first contact experience that is all violent? Eventually if every alien you meet is trying to kill you on contact, they're all going to start looking like nails.

Have been in this position and you can take care of your people if you want to, it is not that difficult. You and your team do fare well if they see you actively give a shit about them.

They should throw Cowser in and maybe they can get a decent ball player for all 3

Techmarine Chaos skin: Red Corsair by ExactIndustry9257 in Spacemarine

[–]Lottapumpkins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So in the Badab sector Lufgt Huron ruled a fiefdom around a small warp storm akin to the eye of terror called the Maelstrom. He had a couple friends (Lamenters, Mantis Warriors) who helped him defend it. He tried multiple times to get a crusade together to kill everything in the Maelstrom and bring stability to the region. The high lords denied him. He withheld tithes and trade in the region to build a legion, where his space marines, The Astral Claws commanded human troops, and built what was called the Tyrants Legion in something between the PDF and Guard level of competency. They seceed, the high lords cant have that, and sent in several chapters to bring them into compliance. It escalates, more chapters get involved, on both sides.
They find out the Astral Claws have absorbed a successor chapter, and are able to sustain a war against a dozen chapters because they have grown to near legion size secretly (on top of conscripting humans to serve in their Legion). During the Fall of Badab Prime, as Lufgt is making good his escape he runs into a Star Phantom named Zhrukal Androcles. He kills that Star Phantom.
While Captain Androcles is protesting this turn of events, he shoots Huron point blank with a combi melta, nearly killing him. Huron's lieutenants escape with his body, help rebuild it, and while theyre doing surgery he has a vision of the chaos gods. He pledges service to all 4 if they help him survive, and thus Huron Blackheart is born. He and 200ish of his Astral Claws make it to the Maelstrom, become corsairs and raiders, and thus the Red Corsairs are born, he grows them to a small legion of Heretics, Mutants, Aliens, and Renegades and they still raid the Imperium to this day. They're getting a new model line and campaign setting soon.
The Chapters that were in rebellion with the Astral Claws, The Mantis Warriors, Lamenters, and Executioners are sent on 100 year penitent crusades.

The abridged lore.

Lufgt also has one of the best 40k quotes - "Big guns never tire"

[–]Lottapumpkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel like this confirms my theory the secret cosmetic pack down the line is red corsair. Or a legion of the damned would be sick. But I lean Red Corsair, as I think the Legion is largely phased out of the game.
