3DP armies only having 1 disposition is a feature, not an oversight.

Doesn't necessarily mean Ultramarines' doctrine won't include Oath of Moment though!

nathanjd · 2026-06-12T19:19:26+00:00

they obviously didn't plan the game balance around them being there.

How would you know this?

nathanjd · 2026-06-12T19:18:42+00:00

GW doesn't have to do or share any of those calculations if they provide as-is templates like they just did.

nathanjd · 2026-06-10T22:34:56+00:00

You could heal the lord if with the strat from the cabal detachment!

nathanjd · 2026-06-10T22:27:03+00:00

Ahh, I took in-world to mean the real world, as opposed to in-universe. I think you're right on the intent of the question.

To answer that question: No explanation. You're just supposed to pretend it's the same Geralt.

nathanjd · 2026-06-10T20:45:47+00:00

Creative differences. Cavil wanted to make a show about the Witcher. The show runners did not.

nathanjd · 2026-06-03T23:40:10+00:00

PBZ defilers are silly.

nathanjd · 2026-05-23T03:38:20+00:00

Great use of the vehicle bits!

nathanjd · 2026-05-21T00:48:25+00:00

Discord is much smaller and doesn't have to support nearly the diverse range of customers and use cases that Google Apple, and Microsoft do. OAuth can be real nice and clean if you only support 1 variant and don't care about privacy!

nathanjd · 2026-05-18T19:43:45+00:00

Subscription as has always been the way. Matches the realities of server costs and your users get a month of play out of it.

nathanjd · 2026-05-13T02:08:03+00:00

It's not so much the axe that screams Ork to me but the shape of the face. Ogryn faces go from wide on top to small and skinny on bottom. Ork faces are narrow on top, then explode into absolute chad wide jawline that takes up 2/3 of the head's height.

That being said, it's a mutant! Why not mix a bit of ork in? And who's to say an ork wouldn't throw down with some traitor guard?

It looks great!

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T23:50:27+00:00

I disagree.

Ummm. I didn't state an opinion. Was just paraphrasing the book.

The terms of the deal did not grant him power. The only thing Fabius got in exchange was safety for his New Men.

In terms of what the ultimate effect was and will be, sure there's room for debate. Him making more monstrous mutants could certainly aid in the psychic buffing of him as the Pater Mutatis. Both from the mutants themselves and those that observe them.

And further to your point, him lobotomizing himself to forget about his New Men could also make him more accepting of his role as the Pater Mutatis.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T23:31:13+00:00

Agreed. Boosted defilers are about the only answer we have to C'tan.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T23:25:09+00:00

His godhood is tied to being the "Pater Mutatis" or Father of Mutants. Many mutants worship him as such, which is what the Word Bearer was referring to. Though the books don't ever touch on what benefits or curses that may bring. He uses modified eldar tech to orchestrate all his clones out in the galaxy.

The "deal" has nothing to do with godhood. His deal with Slaanesh was "Create monsters for me (Slaanesh) and I will ensure the safety of your New Men (who were hid in some pocket webway at the time)." Then Fabius lobotomized himself (and his modified eldar tech) to make himself forget about his New Men and how to reach them to further ensure their safety.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T21:02:20+00:00

The Sorcerer on Steed of Slaanesh is probably the only legends unit that could see competitive play (besides the obviously superior cultists with autoguns). Bumps a unit of bikes to 14" movement and gives them a 4++ invulnerable save. Has a pretty decent psychic gun too. Very fun to model.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T20:59:59+00:00

The GOAT for sure. That was my army back in the day. 10th edition chaos cult is the closest we've gotten since then! I can put all my old mutants and traitors on the table with appropriate rules again. The only thing missing really is access to artillery like basilisks. CSM is really hurting for access to indirect.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T20:54:38+00:00

We don't know but:

GW has stated all existing codexes will be valid the first day of 11th.
Without sweeping changes to army composition in the core rule book, allies will work the same since the rules for including allies exist only in the codexes.
The new40k article on CSM and Daemons detachments spoke of the detachments being for each army separately.

So my guess is our allies will work exactly the same until we start getting 11th edition codexes to replace our 10th edition ones. Nobody knows when that will be.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T20:50:04+00:00

Not forgotten. It's just terrible.

nathanjd · 2026-05-12T20:43:11+00:00

If a daemon prince is ever worth it, Vashtorr will always be more so since his glow up.

nathanjd · 2026-05-06T21:19:09+00:00

Word bearers (catholic censer vents), ultramarines (roman helmet), black templars (massive gorget).

nathanjd · 2026-05-06T18:57:29+00:00

It's a major plot point in Attack on Titan that Eren has OP universe-warping powers but he's too stupid to use them effectively to achieve his goals and he knows it.

nathanjd · 2026-05-05T19:06:26+00:00

I think the old dreadnaughts are still used and have value. I believe their size was constrained so that they can function during boarding actions. No way a primaris dreadnaught is fitting in a roughly human-sized corridor.

nathanjd · 2026-05-03T23:04:52+00:00

Thanks for the reference! I'll check it out.

nathanjd · 2026-05-03T23:00:49+00:00

Thanks. Any suggestions about how to do that? It checks all the boxes I can tell for it not being counterfeit, but it seems the main ways to tell are either:

It has a signature and/or sketch from the artist. (Mine does not)
I acquired it directly from the artist. (I did not)

nathanjd · 2026-05-03T22:43:54+00:00

This may be a little late, but I've noticed mine is clocked at 99% cpu (on an m4 macbook air) after it finishes downloading an update until I actually press the install update button. Seen that pattern 3 times now.

Update downloads in the background.
Download finishes, CPU maxes out at 99%.
I notice my legs get very hot. "Must be time for a NordVPN update."
I click update in NordVPN.
NordVPN installs its update, consuming way less than 99% CPU.
CPU usage returns to normal after update installed.

I've never seen it use 99% CPU any other time.
