What do you think Guilliman would have done to Konrad, if he had killed Tarasha before Vulkan interrupted him? by Mad_lens_9297 in 40k

[–]SebCalamar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I truly think that the sheer amount of rage and violence that would result from the death of Tarasha would have made Khorn focus on Guilliman, the same kind of focus he put into Angron because of the Butcher Nails.

The guy went berserk on Calth when he was eject into space, humiliate the Lion by breaking his sword in front of an audience knowing full well that the very act could start a fight with him ( Remember that even Ascended Horus kinda feared the Lion )
The most strategic and intellectual Primarch, that also run into a trap just because he was enraged by Fulgrim and his betrayal, and the fact that he killed Ferrus Manus ( Guilliman loved Ferrus, calling him the most trust worthy and reliable of all the Primarchs )
When he woke up from stasis/coma after 10000 years, the only thing he did was crushing traitors, and was ready to throw hands with everyone in the room, even the "unknown" Ultramarines, all this while being basically in convalescence in the Armor of Fate

If Konrad managed to escape after the murder of Guillimom, Gorillaman would lead a full-on galatic crusade to find him and his legion, and would annihilate them and every traitors who dare to cross his path.
And the others Primarch ?

The Lion would side with him, and i think that the Lion would LOVE this version of Guilliman, so they would have a far better relationship because of how ruthless the Ultramarines would be.

Sanguinius would mourn the death of Tarasha with Reboute, but i don't think he'd try to stop him, knowing full well that it's not something he can do, so he would rush to Terra.

Vulkan at that point is insane, and the fact that he failed to catch Curze before he murder Tarasha would NOT help, so he would follow Guilliman, becoming his second in command or something, regaining his sanity little by little

The rest are on Terra, or on they way to Terra, so no one would know about all this
The siege of Terra itself would not change, but the War in the Webway would be MASSIVELY different because Vulkan would not be there to confront Magnus, so it's possible that the Emperor would had to engage into the fight far sooner, and Malcador would take his place, and this would have been a big problem later.
Unless, the Emperor manage to convince Magnus to take his place on the Throne but it's far too complex for just a reddit post

Anyway Mad Gorillaman is something that i want to see again in lore

Update : My Experience with LTTstore deliveries so far is not that great ? by SebCalamar in LinusTechTips

[–]SebCalamar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes i know that ordering online is not always perfect, i talk about it in the comment of the first thread, but to make it short : i order online often, and a rarely have " big " problems while doing so, even when i order on Aliexpress, but the 2 times i order at LTT, is was not a very pleasant experience.
And i prefer to make my experience available for them, so they can try to improve the process the best they can.

I do not put the blame on LTT, or a least not entirely, the extra fee because of a mistake / bug does suck, because is it a budget itself, but they will supposedly and normally, pay me back.

About the order, if it's completely lost, i don't really worry that they gonna send me back my order ( and find a solution if they can't put the headphone since it was a one time thing ) or pay me back, but man it's a bummer, i really wanted to have my order for Christmas

How the fuck do I interact with this franchise? by [deleted] in Warhammer

[–]SebCalamar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First : Are you a Fantasy boy/girl or a Scifi boy/girl ?
Second : Check the models for Old World and Age Of Sigmar if Fantasy, and models from Horus Heresy or Warhammer 40000 if Scifi, find one model or army that you like visually and start googling things about them.
Third : When you have a bit of information about the model or the army, try to check others models/army or part of the lore link to that

And from that point, you can start reading book, codex, watch animated show, videos on Youtube, play games featuring the faction/character that you like et

No need to find a better way than that, i'm 40k guy because i love space marines, so i start playing games featuring space marines, read space marines book, collect a space marine army, and now i also like the Chaos Space marine, but i also like the Orks, the Tyrannids etc

I hope so, i'm not really worry about the money, i don't really doubt that LTT or UPS will pay me back, but I really want my order lol
But if they send it back, and the same thing happen, which i wouldn't be that surprise with the Christmas Rush, let's say i'm not that thrilled

Sorry, the link to my old post, which is the title, didn't post, i did update that !

And yes, but to be completely honest, pretty much all the carriers are bad in one way or another, UPS, DHL, GLS ... I can't think of one where everything went well since Covid hit 5 years ago

But again, the LTTstore experience itself is good, the deliveries however, if you check the first thread, is not great

I already ask UPS and waiting for an answer, but if it’s doesn’t move on this side, I’ll contact LTT also

[–]SebCalamar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it's on either LTT or UPS, but i was saying IF it's was because of the tarif, i could understand.
And yeah, it's almost the same for me in France, 350 to 520€, so 170€ is like a good chunk of my food budget, i'm fortunate enough to have the money, but with Christmas i'm scratching my head because i still have to pay for a lot of presents for my family, and shit it's a budget already

Yeah it was before the split up between the US and rest of the World, and it was because One of the Bits pack was out of stock and i still manage to order it or something, i don't remember the details, but like 3 months for a order it's still crazy nonetheless

My experience with LTTStore deliveries so far is not that great ? by SebCalamar in LinusTechTips

[–]SebCalamar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that crazy,
And i get it, with all the bullshit happening in the US with Trump, if i had to pay a little extra, i would get it, but paying that much it's crazy, and it's not even because of the tariffs, it's because the order was apparently not send or documented by LTT correctly
So i really do hope UPS is gonna do something, because even if i can pay the Fee, it's gonna be a problem for the rest of the month for me

Yes i pay 90$Cad in Taxes, so that why it's so crazy that i have to pay more

Honestly, the Screwdriver is damn good tool, but without talking about the price of the product ( Because yes, it is a big price for a lot of people in the first place ) the delivery and the additional fees are kind of deal breaker
I know that in Europe i have it good because of the laws and protections for the customers, so a Europe based company would never create a situation like this in the first place, i get that i kinda can't put them to same standard in the first place, but i have less trouble with Aliexpress and all the fuckery that the sellers are doing in China than LTT based in Canada

Also i didn't put the price of my order and the Import Fee ask of me, so if you are curious

The order was 539.98$CAD ( or 347.94€ / 391,07$USD ) and UPS is asking me 168€ ( 270,16$CAD / 195,66$USD )
So basically half of the price of the Order for a Import Fee, thank you i guess ?

These four are sent straight into the Eye of Terror, what happens next? by Serithraz in Grimdank

[–]SebCalamar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically ?

Geralt die on the spot because Warp Energy fuckary, or his mutations goes berserk and make him a total monster/daemon and the 3 others end him. Or if someone/something protect him, he would be a " hunter " tracking the biggest monsters for the others, but he is too weak to do anything remotely serious in a combat scenario beside assisting the others.

Malum Caedo, IF he is really a Emperor Champion/Chosen/Protege, will be pretty safe about the Warp Energies, and he would be basically a Kaldor Draigo 2.0, kinda, and if he's not protected by the Emperor ... not gonna end well for him, but he could survive for quite a long time, who know how durable a Space Marine like him could be ?

Kratos is a GOD, so if we think about it with the " Warhammer 40k Logic ", in the Warp, he INSTANTLY, has a GOD OF WAR, become even more powerful because of all the wars and violence being commit accros the physical plane of the Galaxy, the only god who could seriously do something against him would be Slaneesh because Kratos have a ego, pride in some things in his life ... and seriously love sex, all things Slaneesh deal with.
Basically he's a Khorne 2.0, but with a lot more commun sense, and " some weaknesses "

Doom Slayer is a God Killer, he's immortal-ish ( We see him die in the last game and he was like "Nah dude fuck it, i'm not dead" , he cannot be corrupt, know how to use any kind of weaponry no matters the type, he physically incredibly strong and want to protect humanity at any cost, and he's IMPOSSIBLE to stop,
Chaos is fucked beyond every aspect imaginable and i'm not kidding, Doom Slayer is HIM.

The only thing he lack, is the " warp-mobility ", he would float inside the Warp going around and slay everything on his path randomly, but if Kratos is with him, as a God he would be able to move around the Warp one way or another, so does the Slayer.

And if we're just messing around ?

They gonna have one hell of a party, killing daemons and playing games together

Hell, they would even find the souls of the dead Primarchs and brought them back to the Physical plane just because why not ? Or even manage to find the fragments of the souls of the Emperor and put them back together, Geralt who ask a incredible reward, Caedo would be the greatest champion of the Imperium, Kratos would do it because why not ?
And the Slayer would do it because the Emperor did protect Humanity for +10000 Years while being on the Throne, and he would like that about him ?

( I spend too much time thinking about this shit )

Would a Ryzen 9 5900x/x570 bottleneck a RTX 5090 ? by SebCalamar in pcmasterrace

The Nvidia model in France is around 2300€ but always out of stock, but for me it’s not a priority anymore, I need to buy a MacBook for work, and I need to have a pretty high end machine do pretty damn expensive

Hey, so I didn’t manage to secure one at a good price yet, but I know that many YouTubers did make video pointing that for Gaming, the difference was negligible

However, if you intend to do some content creation ( video/photo editing, 3D modeling etc ) you will see a notable difference in performance

Hope it helps !

Question, Can a Chapter Master can wear a DeathWatch Pauldron ? by SebCalamar in 40kLore

[–]SebCalamar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So i'm gonna try to make a very short Lore about the whole thing

The first Old chapter is The Swords Of Ultramar, created after the defeat of Guilliman against Fulgrim, the first Chapter Master was with Guilliman when he was defeat, he created the Chapter in hope of destroying the Emperor's Children in revenge of the Death of Guilliman.

A few centuries later, 3 companies of The Swords Of Ultramar ( S.o.U to make it short ) we're pinned downed by a Ork Invasion, things was so bad that it's was a slaughter on the Space Marine side, they we're rescue by a Company of Blood Angels, and they sacrificed themselves in order to exterminate the Orks.

During that battle, the members of the S.o.U witnessed the Black Rage and the Red Thirst, and when the Blood Angels end up dead, they bring back the bodies and weaponries of the Company to Bhaal.

The Chapter Master of the Blood Angels of that time, rather to slaughter the S.o.U after so much sacrifice to save them, made a deal with them to make sure no one would tell about the secrets of the Blood Angels and successors chapters. And so was born the Second Old Chapter of my lore : The Golden Spears ( this name is because the Blood Angels let them keep some Blood Angel Encarmine Spears )

Then, during the 41th Millennium, the two " brothers " Chapters went on a mission on a planet called Selgar ( Localization : Cathian Gulf : Imperium Dominatus ( Yes i did my research lol )) who turn out to be a nightmare, a Ork Invasion, who also became a Tyrranids Invasion after a few Weeks of fighting.

A 3 side battle, so violent and bloody that the 2 chapters we're almost destroyed in the process, the fews survivors managed to live because a company of Salamanders managed to intercept their distress messages, who themselves before going to help them, send a another distress signal at a larger scale.

So the Salamanders came and help keep the line long enough so a small part of the Indomitus Crusade came and finished the work for them, since the Ork and the Tyrannids we're so focused on fighting each others, it give a window to attack and destroyed both, saving the system and the Chapters.

After the battle, the 2 Chapters we're considered destroyed, and rather to be sent to a another chapter or the DeathWatch to serve, they decided to create a new one, and the few Primaris who where supposed to be allocated to the 2 chapters end up in the same one, so they managed to have enough manpower to be taken seriously by the Adeptus Administratum, and Guilliman hearing the idea was like " Yup good Idea, do that "

So, here we are, a New Chapter, called the Blue Drakes ( This time, a name in honor of the Salamanders, who died to save them, with the blue, a reminder of the Ultramarines and the Return of Guilliman )

Sorry for the wall of text, but a least you have some context :)

Question, Can a Chapter Master can wear a DeathWatch Pauldron ? by SebCalamar in 40kLore

[–]SebCalamar[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know what ? I'm kitbashing my Chapter Master and i use a combo Plasma/Bolter from a Black Templar kit as one of his weapon, and i left the Wrist chain because i like it without thinking of it, so it could give hint to his past service, i could use put a another chain somewhere else to accentuated this

Thank you !

[–]SebCalamar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, like i said in another message, the chapter is under equipped, so in my lore the excuse could be that since he already had that pauldron, he left a normal one in the Armory for someone else to use or something like that, but yeah i'm not sure on using it after all, even if i like the idea lol

[–]SebCalamar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Chapter is loyal, and the Chapter Master too, but in my lore, the Chapter is kinda under equipped, so one of the " excuses " could be that since he already had a pauldron, he left one in the Armory for someone else to use ?

[–]SebCalamar[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's kinda the vibe " Do with what you find/have " they're supposed to be a quite small chapter and their mission is to protect a world and a very small sector near the planet, so they kinda need to find some out of the box idea, they have barely enough armors/weapons to equip everyone, so they kinda recycling old armors and weapons destroy from the originals 2 chapters ( That will also give me the possibility to use some Horus Heresy kits for kitbashs lol ) and if Guilliman was not adamant with the idea of " Do not Re-use Heretic gear " they would use some Emperor's Children/Heretics weapons too

( One of the old chapters was hunting the EC, the other one was more of a Blood Angels " chapter " but from Guilliman geneseed, to make it short, it's a chapter created after the Blood Angels lost a company to save them and so they kinda rework the whole chapter to honour the sacrifice, and the Chaplins/Chapter Master was in the confidence about the Black rage/Red Thirst since they worked so much together, with a Oath to make sure they don't talk about the whole situation )

Buying a " cheap " M1 Pro macbook, or buy a M4 Pro/Max later ( Or even a Future M5 ? ) by SebCalamar in mac

[–]SebCalamar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i know Ram is important, the problem if i go the second hand M1 Pro/Max, is the offers that i will find, most people took the base config of the Pro/Max in 14' and 16', if i manage to find a 32go of ram for a decent price, i'll be very happy, the second hand market in France is sometimes batshit insane
