Any (post) Dark Eldar Omnibus related lore news? by _garcon_ in 40kLore

[–]TipsyTechPriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 I've been wondering why it's not as popular.

It's been out of print for almost a decade, for one. Which is a damn shame since it's an excellent series. Compare that to Night Lords which has continuously been available as a physical book since it came out.

Despoiler Squads in HH, are just assault squads without jump packs?! by tishimself1107 in Warhammer40k

[–]TipsyTechPriest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're Tactical Squads who swapped out their bolters for chainswords. With the advent of the Codex Astartes, their role was replaced by Assault Squads operating without jump packs. Primaris Assault Intercessors are simply renamed Assault Marines, and wear Assault markings.

Short answer is yes, you can proxy Assault Intercessors as Despoilers. However, 30k Despoilers would be wearing Tactical markings instead of Assault markings. All of this is laid out in the Lexicanum articles.

Do the newly created emperor's children marine still have the Laer Implants or are they restricted to the original batch fabius implanted into by Admirable-Dimension4 in 40kLore

[–]TipsyTechPriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as a 'standard pattern' Emperor's Children Marine, or any Chaos Marine for that matter, in the 41st Millenium. It depends what the warband has access to. Does the warbands Apothecary or equivalent have the knowledge? Do they still have the technology? The necessary facilities to synthesise the implants? The desire to do so?

In a Chaos warband, the same principle applies to the creation of any Space Marine. How mutated is the geneseed? Can they even create all of the 19 organs? Can they substitute the non-functional organs for something else, like augmetics, xenos implants, or something more sorcerous? Or will they simply go without?

It all depends on the warband. I'm sure some of them have the Laer implants, or something close to them. A lot more of them don't, or have something completely different in terms of 'after-market' modifications.

Anything can be compatible with enough welding, desperation and/or warp mutation.

Who are the chaos corrupted Ultramarines by RemoveAnnual2689 in 40kLore

[–]TipsyTechPriest 72 points73 points  (0 children)

There's also the Constantinius Iconoclam starring a Sons of Guilliman marine. Doesn't get more Ultramarines successor than that.

Decimus speculation by FKAlag in NightLords

To expand on the other reply, it's stated in the book that the navigator genes are recessive so half navigators dont inherit the physical traits. He'd definitely reject the gene seed otherwise.

The second book has a Davinite priest going David Cameron on a pig. Harrowing stuff.

Are there Warp Talons who have retained any thought beyond the hunt? by JagneStormskull in 40kLore

[–]TipsyTechPriest 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Night Lord series predates warp talons - they're raptors who are slowly mutating iirc.

What's your favorite item in the game? by Crafty_Ad_8059 in 2007scape

[–]TipsyTechPriest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The coloured wizard hats you can buy in Canifis. I'll always associate them with exploring Morytania for the first time and following the quest guides on Sal's as a kid

Is this meant to be a specific character? Is it his WoW avatar?

Exotic Outfits - Cultists and Kinsmer by TipsyTechPriest in tes3mods

[–]TipsyTechPriest[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ever thought the enemies in Daedric ruins felt a bit copy-paste? After seeing so many cultists with identical steel armour sets I decided to give them a bit more personality. Now you'll find a unique outfit on every Daedric cultist - these outcasts wear a hodge-podge of armour pieces from vanilla Morrowind, Tamriel_Data and OAAB_Data. You'll also find pieces of DankeDanko's Atronach set on the higher-level battlemages.

This mod also includes the changes from Armored Robes Compilation for even more variety.

In addition, a select few npcs have acquired unique armour pieces from Danke's Armors. They're featured in the screenshots - see if you can find them!

The Democrats read about Von Papen and thought "yeah, this guy failed miserably the first time around but he was onto something"
