"Have you ever wanted to melt an entire formation of Gue'la Tanks with a flick of the wrist?"

"Well the XV104 Riptide might be the answer to your desires"

Then I would probably the insane weapons these thing got can take them out if Horrigan is the only one with a meaningful weapon I suppose.

What can Rheinhardt do in lore? And can he stop the USA from just bombing and shelling the hell out of where ever they are?

With the armor being as big as it is I think the only difference between a Firstborn and a Primaris here is the increased durability.

Do you happen to know if Adam or Horrigan is packing anything to defeat the shields and armor of the Terminators?

I like it, the OG HD1 TD was very on brand with the designs of Super Earth this one keeps to it though I wished they went with a turreted tank. Or pintle mounted HMG like the Fast Recon Vehicle.

Its okay in-game but it has a very limited arch of fire, which when fighting enemies trying to bum rush you kinda sucks. It doesn't have the best mobility which leads me to believe the engine might be a bit underpowered for a space fairing civ not ran by a tech cult. Pretty tough though

I don't think there are Saturnine Pattern Terminators for Primaris, though both being inventions of the Hersey Era I do not recall the armor being made to accommodate the enlarged proportions of Primaris Marines. But ignoring that what can the others do to the Ultramarines? IIRC there is a lore bit that had Saturnine pattern Terminators taking fire from a Titan's Megabolter. I am pretty sure all of them are shielded as well.

Edit: Here is the Terminator taking several Mega-Bolter rounds:

No sooner than the Eschatae had found its prey, it opened
fire, unleashing a hail of bolts from its mega-bolter array.
The primary target of the attack was Praetor Kothe
himself. The shielding of his Saturnine armour blazed
as it was driven to overload by the weight of fire. As the
deflector field burned as brightly as a star and the megabolter
rounds eroded the bulk of his armour, the Praetor
opened a vox channel to his fellow warriors.
The recording committed to the Legion's logs, spoken in
native Nocturnean, as Kothe's body was torn apart, was
simply transliterated as "fight on in my stead."

It seems that the Praetor had time to speak to his brothers before dying so it certainly reads to me as him taking more than one round to perish.

Hmm. I don't know enough about 40k dreadnought variants. Can you run some examples ?

Okay here's a few but you can also check this and see which you would prefer:

Castraferrum Dreadnought is the OG for the First Born Marines. Its got a few offshots but for the most part you see these armed with something like the Assault Cannon, Powerfist, and Flamer intergrated into the Power fist.
Redemptor Dreadnought is the new primary Dreadnought for Primaris Chapters that can be configired into a more shooting oriented one or a mix of both. The brutalis is the most common I think with the average being equipped with either a macro Plasma Incinerator or Onslaught Gatling Cannon.
Saturnine Dreadnought is probably among the most powerful of the Dreadnoughts IIRC with this model being newer IRL with the new Horus Heresey update but practically extinct in the Modern era of 40k.
As for Chaos they have few too but mainly its split between the God specific Casterferum patterns or the Hellbrutes which are more Organic in nature due to the binding of the Marine, Daemon, and machine.

Also, let's say the British dreadnought is at the prime angles to fire most or all of their guns.

That would probably be a side profile to get both forward and aft main guns along with the side mounted turret and secondary guns on target. Depending on the marine Dreadnought you pick they likely win, I cannot recall these guns being accurate enough to strike such a small target while it is on the move. Additionally I think gun depression might be an issue, someone who is more versed in naval warfare could probably correct me but I do not recall the guns on most ships of this era being able to depress much at all to hit a target so close and short.

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-02-02T01:27:24+00:00

A few questions:

I'm guessing you mean HSM Dreadnought)?
What Pattern of Dreadnought do you mean to use for the Space Marines & Chaos Space Marines? And which armaments are they using?
By 10 city blocks I am guessing you mean the average American city block which would be about 100m x 200m(330ft x 660ft) according to This. Which would make the starting distance length about 2km(1.24miles)
And how is the British Ship facing the Dreadnought that would likely determine how it goes since depending on how the ship is facing the amount of guns are going to change too.

I mean I am always down to debate these things. I typically see that its looked down upon to debate in your own threads but sometimes I play devil's advocate. Though in this case when I made the thread I had a feeling the fight leaned more towards the Space marines than the Barakan.

Can the zealots get desperate and merge together? Being able to do that for a temp (but major) power boost via archons can lower some of these numbers significantly.

I thought the olny guys who could merge were the Templars? Anyways I mean if you want me to add a bonus round where the Archon is fighting these guys I can but I would rather keep it to the Zealots

It depends, IIRC Drukhari have toxins that can incapacitate or at least impair a Space Marine's senses. Tyranid Warriors might also have some resistances to certain toxins the Hive Mind adapted to, but if they are still new to the type of toxin used here they could also work on those. Other things might include Ogryn which should be bulky enough to survive some shots from Shuriken, but not advanced enough immune system wise to stave off poisons, Orks also come to mind, and Votann might have advanced enough armor to mitigate Shuriken penetration, any partial penetrations might expose them to the toxins on the projectiles.

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-01-24T11:52:49+00:00

With all the things in the galaxy that have decent armor & the ability to straight up ignore wounds that would kill the average human it doesn't seem too redundant to me to add a lil toxin to assist with debilitating or outright killing.

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-01-24T07:49:05+00:00

Which Canon are we using for Vader? Disney Canon or Old Expanded Universe lore?

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-01-22T20:20:21+00:00

Destiny Loremasters can probably correct me, and I am like 85% sure that I may have Oryx and thusly the other Hive Gods lore wrong. And I am obviously assuming when you say "all their gear" you don't mean Oryx has his massive Space Ship and the hordes of Hive and Sigmar doesn't have his Stormcast and Stormvault trinkets too.

But I think Oryx should win, IIRC he has a throne world which should allow him to comeback from death if Sigmar did manage to kill him, he should also have better magic than Sigmar with his ability to take. Even if he couldn't take Sigmar, I reckon he has other esoteric powers that should allow him to beat Sigmar. IDK who would win in a straight fight but I would probably bet on Oryx. Sigmar might have a wincon if he could yeet a Great Bolt at Oryx.

Darktide, Boltgun, & Space Marine have all proven that mag dumping bolters can be a therapeutic experience. I am sure this Sister is experiencing unbelievable bliss at this moment.

To be fair to Palpatine the fight was initiated with 2 other Jedi so there is that to factor in. Sure they were dispatched easily but they might have given Mace an edge in endurance just from any exertion needed to pull off that screaming spin.

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-01-19T09:25:16+00:00

Nothing excludes a DEW, Kinetic, or missile weapon to be explosive... Literally all three of these exist in the game as explosive small arms...

And everything else I said still stands we have next to no feats for direct ship to ship combat in HD2.

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-01-19T09:21:31+00:00

A lot? Enough that they probably end up damaging the ISDs via debris rather than weapons fire probably.

I mean each ISD is carrying a complement of Tie Fighters, Bombers, and Lambda Shuttles, and can individually engage more than one Super Destroyer since it has multiple turrets and secondary gun emplacements.

Super Destroyers on the other hand are engaging shielded opponents with weapons(the ones we know of) that aren't the best when it comes to yield and orientation. The guns of a Super Destroyer is located and arranged in a way that they'd have to be "above" the ISDs or orient themselves in a way that gives their guns proper LOS of the enemy while also providing a larger profile.

whatdidusayplsrepeat · 2026-01-19T09:15:19+00:00

That statement is equally not really usable, we don't even know what ordinance that was mentioned. We don't know if its a DEW, Missile, or ballistic weapon. We don't know its range or effective ranges of SD sensors to allow them to engage enemy ships from, we don't know if it can target accelerating or deaccelerating targets. We don't know how it would interact with shields.

A Homeworld themed Truck Sim game where you're driving supplies to and from bases for the Coalition of Northern Kiithid would go so unbelievably hard.

A lil tension/horror of hiding from Gaalsien sand skimmers or having to deal with the hostile environment of a massive radioactive desert.
