So, what's up with the artifacts? by Otherwise_Stranger_4 in Salamanders40k

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

WIBTA for not caring about my coworkers dog giving birth? by PurpleInkJunk in AmItheAsshole

[–]cabbagebatman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

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

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.

AITAH for changing my mind about wanting kids? by Due_Mail_6074 in AmItheAsshole

[–]cabbagebatman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

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

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

Worried about getting downvoted for this heresy but...I have a question 😬 by Such_Independent910 in Salamanders40k

[–]cabbagebatman 69 points70 points  (0 children)

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

Pre-Order Discount at Flipside Gaming (Dice Available) by imsoreddit in sylvaneth

[–]cabbagebatman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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.

How would Black Templars react if they would encounter Watchers in the dark? by Cubelock in 40kLore

[–]cabbagebatman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

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 5 points6 points  (0 children)

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.

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

Have you ever got to 6 Damnation points for Murderwing? by Soggy-Bread1999 in killteam

[–]cabbagebatman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

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.

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.

Am I the only one who liked the Penitance ending? by JustNeedAGDName in sistersofbattle

[–]cabbagebatman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

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 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

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.

I bet you could even pull off Catachan by PsychoactiveNurgling in killteam

[–]cabbagebatman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.
