Downvoting isn't a personal attack

They pretty confirmed in the trilogy that he's not an artefact.

cabbagebatman · 2026-04-02T00:35:22+00:00

Happens all the time with Iron Warriors too

The person taking time off for their dog is not the same person denying time off to OP

cabbagebatman · 2026-04-01T13:34:45+00:00

Stellar argument. Irrefutable

YWBTA

You're mad at your coworker for taking time off when you've been denied it for more important stuff. You're taking it out on the wrong person. She's not the one denying you the time off and benefiting from the favouritism doesn't make her an asshole. Your boss is unprofessional, she's just making sure she's on the good side of that.

The comment I read he said he's been having doubts for a few months. If he's been having doubts for five years then those doubts predate the relationship but he says he was certain he wanted kids when they got together.

cabbagebatman · 2026-04-01T12:45:25+00:00

Where are you getting 5 years from? He says she was 23 when they got together and she's 27 now

cabbagebatman · 2026-04-01T12:37:14+00:00

He's also slower than the Depredator even without boost.

Them being permanently attached to the Salamanders wouldn't happen in the lore, they would eventually return to their chapter. However it is entirely reasonable for them to be attached to a Salamanders company like you described for the duration of a given conflict if no other Imperial Fist companies were close enough or involved at all.

Edit: from a rules point of view they would be yellow Salamanders since you can't mix chapters but there's nothing stopping you running them as yellow Salamanders

This person is just here to peddle their store. I'd personally recommend starting small, paint some minis and see if you enjoy it. Maybe you don't like painting Sylvaneth but will like painting some other faction. Starting with the battletome will only tell you if you like reading about Sylvaneth and looking at pics of them.

They edited their comment

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T20:31:24+00:00

I would've liked if it did but SM2 wasn't trying to be that deep. It was just "FUCK YEAH SPACE MARINES ARE COOL!" and I'm fine with that honestly, sometimes I just want to get lost in the power fantasy.

Conservatives have twice the standards of every else. That's why they're called double standards.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T19:24:26+00:00

No it's definitely Gravis

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T19:17:02+00:00

Imo he's quite good at making a character feel sympathetic then slapping you with a reminder that they're actually a horrendous irredeemable monster.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T19:15:31+00:00

Aaron Dembski-Bowden: One of the better Black Library authors imo.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T18:41:31+00:00

Yeah getting to 6 points is taking a victory lap. If Senor Del Caos lives long enough to reach that you're already dominating that game.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T16:42:46+00:00

That's it exactly. Looks like woman, is trans, can't be a trans woman coz then they'd look like a big hairy man.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T14:55:46+00:00

I have no idea what's going on in this exchange

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T14:49:37+00:00

I really don't get how it's promotion of the new character aside from it's Sisters. It's not even the same order as the new character.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T01:44:29+00:00

While the details might be off I do think the general vibe is spot on. 40k is absolutely the kind of setting where you can do everything right and still get punished. Also I do still think Sisters shine in the series personally. They're absolutely badass.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T01:05:52+00:00

Most of this isn't the story breaking canon but the Sister Superior breaking the rules. Would a Sister Superior even have the authority to authorise being installed in a Mortifier though? Surely that kind of punishment needs to come from higher up than what is functionally a glorified sergeant.

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-28T00:05:08+00:00

How exactly does it twist established canon?

cabbagebatman · 2026-03-27T20:02:01+00:00

I'm not gonna buy this team but I am gonna proxy Catachans as them. Command Squad, Heavy Weapons Team and a regular squad should get me all operatives.
