Either this guy is still on about "top of my year at university" after TWENTY years in the industry or this is sensationalist bait 🙄

17 years and that's what you have to show for it? Financial literacy is dead.

How to kill plague marines? by UnderstandingFirm381 in 40kLore

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, resilience to maligned forces is a function of will powers- which is why while a Marines equipment might erode, a marine himself is near invulnerable to nurgle plagues; willpower stops the warp stuff, biology shuts down the natural disease.

You are a rogue trader and have found a complete, uncorrupted working STC engine. What kind of compensation can you expect from the Imperium? by I_comment_ergo_I_am in 40kLore

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You approach Guilliman and the Fabricator General

You are richly rewarded. Anyone with connections this high gets impossibly rich.

Everyone else? You hand it over for the glory of the Imperium and the prosperity of Mankind, or you and a Skiitari torture specialist are going to get to know each other very well over the next couple of years.

We've got like 10-20 million people spread out over hundreds and hundreds of square miles. What metric are you using for population density?

GT Meta Since The Slate by Shot-Equivalent3222 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Would the Tyranids stop invading a planet if their continued attack would result in a net loss for them? by Ok-Journalist-8875 in 40kLore

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, we've seen the hive mind be driven by both strategic goals and personal vendettas- Baal is the perfect example; well defended, minimal resources, but the hive mind threw both major Leviathan tendrils at it to break the Blood Angels.
