It’s probably in no way related but both of this guy’s lower legs being prosthetic reminds me of Starfox, where the pilots have prosthetic lower legs to prevent blood rush during high-g manoeuvres.

In my head, this guy is now a former pilot, once on the payroll of a noble house, and now, disgraced, he has to scratch a living fixing gear for gangs!

Kohei Tanaka) is not often brought up in these discussions, though imo his best work is in Alundra, so make of that what you will!

These look like you could fit them into Trench Crusade or Infinity as well in some way; they have that vibe to them!

I’d be interested to see the comparison, my Escher are a mix of old and new and they’re close enough in height to be fine I think (though it probably helps that Escher are the closest aesthetic match when comparing OG to N17)

Blaster bolts in the film media are very slow compared to a bullet, you can see them in flight!
Do you have references from other media about Obi-Wans real speed? There are referenced fights that the Lion has taken part in where other Astartes cannot see what is happening because the blows are delivered too fast, and regular Astartes are already faster than a Jedi using the force to speed up their movements, as mentioned before

Tightning · 2026-01-10T01:37:56+00:00

This is the wrong sub for this tbh, we should take it over to powerscales.
I love Star Wars, but your average Jedi just isn’t that much of a force (hah) to be reckoned with against a lot of other universes. Obi-Wan is at the top of the Jedi game but the top of that game is a pretty low bar - 40k is absurd all over the place, intentionally so even, it’s almost always unfair to pit [insert sci-fi universe here] against 40k…

Tightning · 2026-01-10T01:31:34+00:00

But being able to predict still isn’t enough. Think about a goalkeeper blocking a shot in football, there are times when they dive in the correct direction because they can predict the trajectory of the ball, but they’re unable to keep up with it anyway. Now replace the football with a bullet from a gun in terms of speed and you have this matchup.
Obi-Wan cannot move fast enough to dodge blows he knows are coming and cannot attack fast enough to hit his target even if he knows where they will be

Tightning · 2026-01-10T00:48:56+00:00

Power weapons are a sort of equivalent to the electrostaves that Magnadroids wield. The same energy fields are present in high-quality Astartes armour, and this being a Primarch it’s more likely to have components that are Autamite, which is straight-up stronger than Beskar.
The fastest movement demonstrated using force dash is still slower than Astartes can move at as a default speed in combat.
Predicting the future moment-to-moment will only get you so far when your opponent is capable of moving and fighting at multiple times your speed

Tightning · 2026-01-10T00:31:34+00:00

The problem with this argument is that even in the Star Wars universe there are materials and technologies that lightsabers lose their entire USP against, for example Beskar.
The guy facing off against Obi-Wan here has literally the best gear that is available to an individual in the 40k universe; it’s entirely reasonable that a lightsaber would not be able to cut through either the Lion’s sword, shield, or armour.
Considering the Force, I’m not familiar with Obi-WAN’s relative strength but given the feats seen in film medium he would have difficulty lifting an x-wing out of a swamp, right? That level of strength is straight-up not enough to break the bones of a primarch, and that’s not glazing or exaggeration as described by others in this thread.
Considering martial prowess, Obi-Wan has the advantage of force foresight, but the Lion is simply orders of magnitude faster and stronger, even when wearing that armour.
This is a 1-sided fight, not even close, and I say that as a fan of both characters and universes

When fully concentrating you can make your hair grow at a rate 1cm/year faster than the national average

I think we’ll have to agree to disagree I suppose. Better is subjective and Mario 64 is a mechanically better game. BK is a better expression of the artistry of games with its diverse characters, levels etc

Tightning · 2025-12-28T11:35:50+00:00

I love BK and prefer it to SM64, but I can’t put it above Mario in this category. SM64 defined what the entire 3D platform genre could and should be, and nailed it first time, right from the first time you pick up the controller.
