40K Lore For Newcomers - What Is... Necromunda? - 40K Theories

[@40KTheories]

*ADDENDUM* : Slight error regarding the enforcers. It turns out they are 'Palanite Enforcers' as opposed to 'Palatine Enforcers'. My mistake.

[@Ajehy]

40K Theories - as long as they’re not “Palpatine Enforcers”. Those guys couldn’t fight off one Jedi farmboy and his angry cyber-dad.

[@panopticon0]

No big deal. I'm sure Palatine was the intended word but they couldn't trademark it so "Palanite" it is.

[@simonnarvaez6783]

Do You know anything of the game of necrumnda that was on development ?

[@Sir_Bucket]

@@Ajehy but.... but they wouls control, THE SENATE

[@danf3201]

I mean, Palatine is the name Fulgrim used for his inner circle as Ancient Rylanor said he was part of it. So if it was Palatine then the Imperial Fists are not doing their job very well.

[@fort809]

“Besieged by a race that many historians would believe to be the orks” Yeah, that’s definitely what wiped out the continuity. Haha, definitely not a massive demon invasion, because demons don’t exist! *inquisitor releases bolt pistol from my forehead*

[@Sir_Bucket]

Yeah totally like the 2 (and only 2) invasions of Armaggedon hahahaha. Who is this Agron anyway?...

[@glenmcgillivray4707]

Isn't Angron the traitor who blew up Cadia? Damn heretic. They blew up a fortress world but the Imperium fights on! Suspicion is that the leader of any heretic command force is named Angron for some reason. It is probably a given title.

[@MidoriOfTheShuinsen]

The Enforcers are basically a mixture of Judge Dredd and Robocop. They just have more military grade gear.

When asked to describe Necromunda I start with this. Me "Ok imagine New York city." "Ok I'm imagining it. What next." Me "that's it just stack the sections of the city on top of each other with the entire city itself being only as wide as the island of Manhattan." "Ok and what else." Me "no that's it. Its basically just New York."

Necromunda reminds us that 10,000 years ago a mighty Adeptus Astartes legion brought a numbered plant back into compliance and is still providing recruits, still paying off the debt of defying the Emperor

they would if they could, but that knowledge was lost by the tech priests of mars because they didn't think it was needed.

@@leaderofstars8774 or more likely the whole of mars was ripped apart under the their schism and now large parts of the planet still have techno horrors, and scrap code running around through the data banks.

[@glenmcgillivray4707]

The Imperium does not lack for worlds, nor new forges nor mining regions. The workforce for these forges might as well live near the manufactorum to reduce commute times. What do you mean necromunda is a hive, nonsense it was built as a hab block on the roof of the manufactorum. Shame the mining region ran dry of critical materials and the mechanicus moved on without bothering to resettle anyone not actually important to their operation.

[@AdamWhistle1]

Yes, because then the setting would not be as GRIM and DARK as possible. Any measure that would be considered common sense to us is HERETICAL and SUPER HERETICAL to Imperium (or just considered either unnecessary or impractical or a waste of resources). Same reason why they can't just clean up the planet so the surface is habitable.
