I think it would be really cool if we got a series of books about the death eagles or sons of the pheonix, where its confirmed they are loyalist EC and they are basically running aroumd the galaxy doing all these missions for trazyn trying so they can get clonegrim back and restore the honor of their founding chapter. There is so much you could do with that storyline.

female space marines is only a hot topic because of female gender supremacist politician scum... otherwise the concepts that create each of these individual ones itself are quite interesting. female space marines however don't seem to have a specific point to existing...which is the point of any inclusion, that it is of substance and import. why do women fight here? what are they trying to achieve which is beyond themselves? what are the struggles they have that are actually profound and not mundane? the reason people bristle at female inclusion is because women themselves refuse to grant a reasonable answer, because of which they are rejected as part of the collective canon... they also don't take the effort to form their own philosophy and ideas into a new setting or something that fits into the general cannon either. to me, they make no sense even in the imperial guard or cult mechanus sometimes.. i don't think space marines are boring though, it's just that we haven't had enough deliberation on their various perspectives what they venerate about the emperor in particular that drives their loyalties and principles, each chapter is a potential new interpretation of the core ideas of their main legion. for now there are only those who think more in line with the ecclesiarchy like the black templars or those who are closer to the more secular/free form thinking of the ultramines or raven guard (not a negative)

Hello, I want to ask if you would be interested in voice acting for fan fiction w40k audiodrama involving imperial guard, drukhari and chaos cultists on Armageddon. The idea is to get several w40k you tubers to cooperate on it. There is no official endorsement from GW, so it is purely fan made project. If the idea seems interesting to you, let me know and I will send the script, so you can decide if you like it or not. Sorry for asking this way, but I did not find an email address in your profile info. Thank you

I kinda agree with what you said about Astartes all having similar personalities, except Chaos Marines having a bit more variety which is why I really love the Fallen/Risen in Lion: Son of the Forest (eg Zabriel, Kai, Borz) because they’re still regular space marines, but they’re pretty like, human just because of the amount of time they’ve spent living non space marine lives

Vandred is a possessed. 100% shares his body with a Tzeentch demon. The NL trilogy is that one exception of Night Lords *not* being chaos worshipping lunatics. Iron Warriors, however, piss me off. It probably (likely) stems from the heresy books of Perturabo hating chaos and applying that to the legion. The Iron Warriors have always been pragmatic about everything. Perturabo being a demon prince is 100% on brand for him malding so hard that he falls to chaos to prove a point that it’s just another tool to control. His legion is the same way. Cutting off mutations is not the same as not using daemon engines/warp powers/worshipping chaos. They have daemon engines down to a science, there’s a reason they have more warpsmiths than the other traitor legions. Mutations are abberant, and while legionnaires remove them, just as many keep them. Storm of Iron should be a must read.

I think the issue here is that GWs is half heartedly trying to keep up the 'every one is evil' aspect without writing the lore to promote that. People talk about the chaos gods having positive traits, and while I'd say that's true in lore, I'd also say it's so far out of balance that you still can't call chaos anything but evil. GWs could alter the lore to make chaos more... complex... but since Imperium is the biggest draw, they won't do it
@identity753611 күн бұрын
I‘d say they have their positive traits but they are twisted mirror images of the actual entities that formed at some point. And those were already a negative inclined version of the entities that were likely there before the war in heaven and the actions of the old ones twisted the warp into what it is now. So yes they have positive spects but due to what the mortal souls projecting into the warp feel on average they have turned into a version of themselves that will ALLWAYS pervert even those. 100% of the time. It will NEVER stay in the positives. Ever. They are broken gods either way.

I have an idea thou its a bit anti climactic. In this concept, the galaxy has entered a period of stagnation and fragmentation, where once-great factions like the Imperium of Man and the Eldar have decayed beyond repair. The Imperium is splintered into countless independent groups, each operating in isolation, and the dream of the Emperor's evolved humanity is forever unrealized. Humanity survives, but without unity or purpose, scattered so far across the stars that they rarely, if ever, encounter one another. Similarly, the Eldar wither away, and the threat of Chaos and Tyranids, while still present, has been reduced to mere skirmishes, no longer capable of galaxy-wide destruction. Drawing inspiration from Dune's "Scattering," the fragmented state of humanity ensures survival but at the cost of progress, leaving them as the sole intelligent species in a galaxy where no group can dominate or unite. The grimdark atmosphere is maintained, not through grand battles, but through the slow decay of civilizations that can no longer reclaim their former glory.

What i like about 40 K is that its grim dark means stagnation or resistant to change, Its like a very conservative society where if someone tried to change things it might back fire and makes it worse. that being said i liked the Emperor children and fulgrim pre heresey, i liked their ideals and out look in life despite their arrogance and short comings. That being said i heavily dislike plots that includes clones, idk why? but it just kinda felt cheap.... Never liked clones as a substitute to the real thing. The only thing that would have made sense for me for fulgrim to return is that he stayed trapped in that painting ever since. As for primarchs returning i would be fine if they found a way that doesn't shift the status quo that much. Its like the emperor returning, while that cool it doesn't feel grim darky.....
