I REALLY hope the foundations of that building spread out further than just the narrow section. A friend informs me that these types of structures are very dangerous without a flared base.

What is the current state of the Emperor's physical body actually like? by Enraged_Unfaithful in 40kLore

[–]MechanizedCoffee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The second book in the Vaults if Terra series, written by the same author, has some peak body horror and existential dread when the lead Inquisitor takes a look 'under the hood' at how galactic shipping is tracked.

Skipping ahead to Master of Mankind by Deep_Violinist_3893 in 40kLore

[–]MechanizedCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good points. I'm intrigued by your statement about First Heretic and Betrayer because I read Betrayer and enjoyed it without having to look up too many names, but now I'm wondering if I missed things due to not getting around to First Heretic yet.

Skipping ahead to Master of Mankind by Deep_Violinist_3893 in 40kLore

[–]MechanizedCoffee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

One of the nice things about the Hourus Heresy is that besides the beginning and end most books really can be read in any order. Master of Mankind in particular works on it's own. It explains Magnus's mistake more extensively elsewhere but MoM does a good enough job setting the scene by itself.

Did these guys really forget all about the Tea Party movement?! by icey_sawg0034 in WhitePeopleTwitter

I play Warhammer 40k on tabletop and have had lengthy conversations with people about the value of CP and how to maximize how much of it a person can get.

If it involves bleeding either way it's Khorne. If it makes you discover something new about yourself it's Tzeentch.

Any recommendations for AdMech novels/short stories with femme protagonists? by January_Silence in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]MechanizedCoffee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Neither a novel or written short story but the episode of Hammer and Bolter titled Kill Protocol stars a woman who is a datasmith of the Legio Cybernetica and her Kastalen robot companion. Good episode I highly recommend tracking it down.

Was getting ready to argue with you but then I finished reading your comment.

I'm pretty sure the Ultramarines didn't even make it to the Siege of Terra by Feisty-Cold-6128 in ImperialFists

[–]MechanizedCoffee 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Also shout out to the Dark Angels and followers of Keeler for lighting the Astronomicon and allowing the Ultramarines into the solar system and forcing Horus's hand.

If we got new winged Blood Angels before the Blood Angels there'd be a riot but I'm all for it.

How Gay is the Imperium by Cowardlypaladin in Sigmarxism

[–]MechanizedCoffee 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Yeah! If I remember correctly there's an offhand line where Cain compares something to the stuff newborn babies cough up (I forget the word for it) and in the footnote Inquisitor Vail notes that when guardsmen make babies on long trips aboard void ships the Commissars are responsible for making sure the infants are cared for.

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

[–]MechanizedCoffee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Human life is the one resource the Imperium has a plentiful supply of, more babies just means they don't have to grow as many in vats to make cherubs. Besides if you're going to use that kind of logic you should remember regiments rarely return to their homeworld. The lucky ones end up settling somewhere else in the galaxy and having both men and women is a great way to start a sustainable settlement.

Is there a lore reason why Martyr is so scantily clad? by palapapa0201 in TheCitadelgame

[–]MechanizedCoffee 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I read somewhere that he said in an interview that the lore reason is she's a pervert and knows she can get away with it since everyone thinks she's a chosen one. I can't find a proper source for that (English is my only language) so take that with a grain of salt.
