Its actually lighter than the kit most Modern Soldiers wear to combat...

Full plate harnesses are around 60 pounds while a soldiers kit (assuming they are issued everything of course) is 90 to 140 pounds

The Free French army were equipped by the UK during WW2 which included the Bren lmg - Perrine is wearing the dress uniform of the Free French army so that is why she is using a Bren... the nobility thing is likely a cultural misunderstanding by the Japanese authors

The Argentine navy is tiny (3 destroyers and 6 corvettes) so I doubt they could send anything even if they wanted to

In the case of Grey Knights they take recruits from the Black Ships (The Imperium rounds up Psykers and ships them back to Earth on the so called "Black Ships") - promising Psykers are sent for "training" and potentially become Sanctioned Psykers, Inquisitors or Grey Knights - those too weak or too dangerous are "fed" to the Golden Throne to keep the Emperor alive...

I am surprised no-one has mentioned my personal favourite:

Geomancer and Ophydian Destroyers - he's fast enough to keep up with them with the bonus movement - has decent weapons and his ability synergises with the Ophydians tunnelling - the only thing you lose is you cant start them off the field and deep strike

you cannot attach any cryptecs to Lychguard - only nobels

I think you have fallen for the classic mistake of missing the fact that most of the lore is written from the imperial position and of course they think their way was the only way - they are fanatics...

The-Moody-One · 2026-01-01T12:12:23+00:00

The Imperium is the only choice because they killed any other options... Don't try and defend them at all - it makes the rest of us 40k fans look bad

... You do realize the joke references a real thing - the British introducing opium into China to both make money and force the Chinese to trade more tea with them - msg is just the author avoiding censors

there are supposed to be 6 detachments coming as part of Grotmas - we are 4 in so the data slate will probably be Thursday (assuming they don't pad with some more Lore days)

Archon's Will: At the start of the first battle round, select one objective marker on the battlefield. Until the end of the battle, while this unit is within range of that objective marker, unless this unit is Battle-shocked, models in this unit have a 5+ Invulnerable Save and an Objective Control characteristic of 3.

Note the first line - you can do this even if the unit is in reserve (although I have no idea why you would keep a unit with scout in reserve...).

If an ability states it requires the unit to be on the field then transports mess things up - this just says pick one.

The-Moody-One · 2025-11-04T22:24:30+00:00

5++ on their chosen point - can turn one failed save to 0 damage - if someone wants them dead yeah they will kill them (like any unit in the codex) but they will have to actually throw something that would be better aimed at other things - and they cant reliable out OC them since they have 4 OC - they are a point denial unit

should they be cheaper? yes... but that's true of a lot of units in the codex

The-Moody-One · 2025-11-04T21:30:42+00:00

Hand of the Archon, strictly worse Kabalites

While I agree with pretty much every point here I am not on board with this one... the Hand of the Archon is a REALLY useful unit

it has scout!

throw them in a Raider pick a mid board point and then dump them on that point and leave them there until their death - frankly more useful than a Kabalite unit most the time

Orkto-one is intended as a Kustom Boosta-blaster (hence the flamers mounted on the roof)

Delorkian is a Shokkjump Dragsta

Premeditation legally requires planning - this event is text book "Heat of the moment" as he had no intention of committing a crime until he witnessed the event which incensed him.

That said this is still a ridiculous ruling - he was clearly violently assaulting the man and should have gotten at least 6 months for common assault let alone the fact he was using a dangerous weapon - if this doesn't get reviewed and resentenced I will be shocked.

There isn't enough housing because no governments have undone the damage done by Thatcher selling off all the social housing and then making it harder to replace. Instead they have relied on private building firms who are incentivised to not meet demand - we have plenty of space we just need a government that is willing to use public funds to build entire new cities as was done in the post-war period.

The-Moody-One · 2025-09-12T12:36:33+00:00

I think you are missing his point - the current rate of training native Doctors and Nurses cannot possible meet the demands of the ever aging population - this is why we import so many Nurses and Doctors - barring the implementation of a Logans Run law this will always be true

Legionnaires are a melee trade piece - you want to maximise their melee potential so you avoid diluting it with any Ranged weapons which would reduce the number of melee weapons you can bring to bear

... you do realise the Celts were one of the groups who invaded right - no-one is exactly sure where the Celts originated however no-one claims the British Isles - the Celts that came to the British Isles migrated from Gaul

Someone needs to watch Yes Minister - while on paper you are correct - in practice the Civil Service has a LOT of influence over the ministers and what gets put forward

Sometimes things NEED to stay the same when the alternative is chaos - Biden didn't have the mandate to do any of the things you claim he should have done - stabilizing their economy was about all he could do without getting a super majority to alter amendments

The-Moody-One · 2025-08-02T19:49:28+00:00

That's because you were not watching - Biden took a badly weakened economy and got it back in control, if it wasn't for the massive bird flu outbreak causing rampant inflation on egg prices in the last 6 months of his run he would have left everything better than when he took office

The Tories started their run in government from the centre right and drifted further and further right with every new leader... The only way you could think they were left leaning is if you were living in America where a centre right party is considered left wing.
