"You have been judged guilty of violating the Lex Imperialis. This is the law of the Emperor's realm. It is His law. If, as you loudly claim, I have erred in my judgement, He would strike me down where I stand.

Be thankful I have saved you from committing such a crime." - Arbritrator Leskanza, 5th Precinct, Colaran Hive.

Its a big rabbit hole but so worth it. I have never played the table top but I have read a ton of the novels and played some of the video games. I love how you have obvious bad guys like Dark Eldar and Chaos and then you have the "good guys" who are still terrible enough to make Hitler look like a nice guy.

[@stanboyd1]

Oh also its debatable on whether Tyranids are evil or just animals, I mean they do act based on hive minds, but so do many insects in the real world, whether or not tyranids are subject to morality of good and evil is in debate, are they immoral killers or are they just a hungry lion feeding on antelope.

[@genericscout5408]

The books are much less crazy I think than the meme culture around 40k.

[@Joshua-me7fx]

@stanboyd1 that's what I love, then there's rhe heresy in the "good guys" as well, this whole despair and violence and survival atmosphere in this universe, with little thought given to a universe without the fighting, so deeply entrenched in surviving, its easy to get lost in.

The Arbites are by far my most favorite non-battlfield faction in 40k, probably because i'm a huge fan of jugde dredd and a nerd when it comes to law enforcement in media. I got myself 5 Soulshackle Boxsets and painted all the Arbites in one sitting, which i never do with my other armies. 😭

This needs to be a character you can build on Darktide.

Considering we play death row inmates of the Imperium, I'm not sure that could work. However! The choice of a sort of max level Arbites prestige class for say the Veteran might work.

They had that already. Ordo hereticus

[@CousinJesse1]

My homebrew often sends chapter serfs to serve as subordinates to Arbites agents within the system. The cooperation between inquisition, chapter, and arbites helps with stability which is always a fragile thing when populations the size of those found on hive worlds are involved. It’s inevitable that criminal organizations and ambitions rebel groups rise.

Hope we get more Arbites novels as they are so cool and help with he universe building of how the common person lives and interacts with these elements of the Imperium.

I want to see crazy rules for 40K. Especially for large scale campaigns. Where you can truly go wild with time, the warp & Legion/Chapter creation. Maybe your Chapter 's planetary system was warp isolated/influenced. Which caused a mutation allowing for Space Marine procreation. A mini version of the Emperor's galaxy. Where everything worked out. They have male & female marines, no Chaos & planetary transportation via a web-way. A storied history where several humanoid types were saved from isolated greatest demons & zenos alike. Only to have the entire thing come crashing down. When the real empire discovers them.

I am so glad that they switched over to more of a Judge Dredd thing cuz it fits them so much better than just a bunch of MP's that are Space Marines as you know damn well Space Marines would not have the time to be doing all that they're not built for that they don't care about criminality and uprisings unless they're told to go there to kill things😅😅😅😅😅

[@ianyoder2537]

I really wish there was something like a miscellaneous imperial loyalists faction to give larger scale tabletop representation of hive gangers, rouge traders, abites, and others. At the very least combine the inquisition, officio assassin, and grey nights into one inquisition codex instead of having 3 separate smaller incomplete feeling codexes. Then maybe add in arbites and tempestus scions as troupe choices for more variety. (I just really want arbites units.) While I'm out here making wishes that I know will never come true give the tau more xenos auxiliary. make another xeno guard hibred faction between the tau and human trators. Give the orks more gretchin and units like a night goblin equivalent. Make a dark mecanicum faction but non chaos allied, I want to see xeno's tech, AI robots, and other tech heresy. Chaos xenos. And finally maiden world Eldar.

Well many chapter worlds are death worlds with little or no civilized presence to begin with, and many others recruit from the scum of the under city of the hives, but for those that are more civilized like ultramarines successors that is an interesting question

Good question, Fun fact though the guys the wrote 2000 AD (Judge Dredd) did work for GW and left to do their own thing!

[@lordterra1377]

How comparable are they to Space Marines? They seem to use similar armor and gear, but are they also creates from a gene seed? They can fire a bolter, which appears to be a regular version and not the scaled down variant used by some Imperial Officers.

[@chrispoole9463]

They do not compare at all. Astartes are Trans humans. Arbites are humans.

[@crazymachinima1]

Absolutely not comparable. They are just very well trained humans, their armour is carapace equivalent, and all weapons they use are human sized. They have excellent training, upper ranks likely cybernetic and genetic modifications, but ultimately, the best of the best would be comparable to a Tempestus Scion stormtrooper martial ability-wise.

[@Chrivs]

The Inquisition will FELL the Pain from an Arbite if they see a inquisitor do anything that goes against the law (Book of Judgment) And really!

I thank you for the transmission, Rememberencer. You mentioned Enforcers a few times, would these include the Palanite Enforcers or are they totally separate as I know they are tasked with enforcement of the Planetary Governor's will? Would it be possible to eventually receive a transmission based on Palanite Enforcers and Palanite Subjugators one day if they are a separate entity? Thank you again., I hope you have a fulfilling week ahead.

[@Txinela]

They are actually different. Palanite enforcers are pdf enforcers, and in this case, enforcers of Necromunda's Governor (don't remember the name). PDF (planetary defense forces, not the file format xD) are just the governor's private army. The thing is, this can lead to confussion because enforcer is also a rank inside the adeptus arbites, plus, i think the adeptus arbites are actually the pdf of Terra xDD.
