[@gama343]

@@sirpieman300 Right? People wank the War in Heaven stuff so hard, but we know how powerful the necrons were back then: exactly as powerful as they are now! All the necrons coming back online are veterans of the War in Heaven, the only difference is that there's less of them, and as far as I can tell, the biggest thing the necrons had going for them was their numbers. Think about it, the necrons lost over half their forced shattering the C'tan, and that still leaves them with enough that if they all wok up they would potentially match the population of the Imperium. This, combined with the fact that these veterans of the War in Heaven regularly have pretty even matches against modern 40k armies paints a pretty clear picture that the necrons were the original horde army. From this, we can deduce that the rest of the old factions were really not that crazy in terms of power, just in terms of population numbers. Necrons still have trouble fighting the orks, because despite having less advanced technology, the orks have the same mindset of the krorks and make up for the tech and intelligence loss by being the ones with the numbers advantage this time. On a side-note, just the fact that regular Guardsmen can fight a necron force and put up any kind of resistance and Space Marines can duel necron elites on even ground kind of debunks the idea that krorks were all Primarch tier monsters, because if they were, just fielding a few dozen of them would have won any ground battle against the necrons, yet that clearly didn't happen. Eldar are a bit more complicated, since their tech actually improved AFTER the War in Heaven, and they still have access to most of it, but their numbers dwindled. They can't use their psychic powers freely anymore, and they can't field Avatars left and right, but their vehicles, weapons and training should be a fair bit better. I imagine eldar back in the day would have been like Imperial Guard Primaris Psykers, except fielded in numbers like the regular Guard, while current eldar are more like a cross between Assassins and Space Marines. Meanwhile, Dark Age humanity had nearly as much mastery over both science and warpcraft as both the necrons and the eldar, and melded those two branches of development perfectly. What's that? You necrons need a C'tan to yeet someone back in time? That comes as a standard feature on our star ships. Oh? The orks are being annoying picking fights with you? Huh, we don't have that problem because we kill them all so quickly and completely that they don't have fun, hell we don't even give 'em time to leave any spores behind. The eldar need to make special protected tunnels to travel through the warp? Again, standard feature of our star ships, with no need for a fancy guide or psychic abilities to find our way because the navigational computer can map the best route through the constantly shifting currents of the warp in real time.

Regarding the faith shenanigans, End and the Death Volume 3 might have given a hint to it. To avoid too many spoilers, a particular psychic action is achieved by having a bunch of regular humans focusing on a very specific concept in a similar way. Said action wasn't possible for the somewhat powerful psykers trying to do it beforehand. It could be that synchronous, co-operative thoughts and feelings have a greater impact in the warp. In this case, the shared zealous faith in the Emperor helps to stave off the psychic dampening from the pylons.

@@matijasostojic4288 Its not an instant cut off. Its slowly eroding your connection untill you're fully cut off. For weak willed people like serfs it can be instant because they're just that small.

[@jesustejeda4908]

I remember learning that Rogal Dorn had a slight anathema to psychic effects because of how much of a brick wall his mind is. Maybe the sisters and the faithful in general are more resilient here because, despite the emperor's connection to the warp, Faith is a strong tool for keeping someone's soul more closely focused onto the person's body. Maybe chaos hates it when people's souls are too strongly attached to the material realm and thats why it affects it like that.

[@CommissarMitch]

It is hinted in The Book of Martyrs that Faith is not tied to Psyker power. Because that would mean every Sister of Battle is a psyker, which would be very noticeable from the start.

[@gama343]

Faith is not a psyker power, just like plenty of daemonic sorcery rituals are not psyker powers. Invoking the aid of a powerful warp entity does not require being a psyker, but the power ultimately does come from the warp. Big E has to beam the power to the Sisters through the warp, using their faith as a beacon to know who to give that power to. In a similar way, if a bunch of cultist, who are not psykers, do a big sacrifice to get some boons from a Chaos god, the gods use the flood of tortured souls as a beacon to know who to juice up.

I see the difference between Tzeentch and Vashtorr, vis a vis Big Plans, as this: Vashtorr has an outcome he's building towards, because he wants to get results. Tzeentch just plans for the sake of plans, that are all deliberately set to smash into one another. Tzeentch does five-car pileups for plans, because the schemes themselves, and the change they bring, are the point of the exercise. That's why Vashtorr seems to have more success in his plans. He's actually trying to succeed. For Tzeentch, the fact the plans were set in motion is success enough.

[@Sercotani]

yep, thats pretty much every faction. An act of planning in itself is Tzeentchian, the more ambitious the better. It sounds weird but consider how any excess, including war, death, ambition etc feeds Slaanesh. Also the fact that all manners of bloodshed feeds Khorne. Stagnation and contentment with one's lot feeds Nurgle. Being a living being in 40k means feeding all the Chaos Gods. Vashtorr is just Chaos Undivided.

[@mrfun177]

I love that GW finally does something with all the dark age tech the admech have hidden away in their vaults cus dark age tech is just on another scale. For example the dark age humans had weaponized time to such a degree that their guns fired rounds that would instantly travel to their target or would duplicate the target with another copy being made nanoseconds in the past so the target would be crushed by having another copy of it inside of its space.

[@cr90captain89]

it would create a giant nuclear reaction (two ships atoms being in the same space at the same time) which they would then slam over the head with a singularity cannon (black hole) to contain the massive explosion such a large reaction would create. the two weapons names are the chrono gun & the already mentioned singularity cannon.

I think the reason the sisters and Admech can be used in this situation is because they are believing so hard in something that's not the chaos gods that they are weaponizing their own ignorance and manifesting their own god in the warp which gives them power. We've already seen the same thing with Slenesh, enough belief in something or someone can make or strengthen a God. So, it's possible that the reason the emperor was so powerful was because of their insane Faith in the God Emperor and the Omnisia and it created a feedback loop in time to give him his power in the 30k like how Slenesh has always existed even though she appaired in a specific point in time.

Like, psychic powers don't work since it's just so much harder to pull out the energy from the Warp to do so and voidships have troubles because transition to and from realspace costs much more power. But maybe it was retconned.

In today's episode of the Ridiculous Tour: Bricky starts using nested quotes, having multiple characters quote each other in order to create maximum confusion. DK just WAAAAAAGHs his way through the whole episode. And Shy is in the lab, and has just discovered how to turn lead into gold! All this to come, after the break!

[@ajackass5950]

Dk just going " yeah yeah yeah" and repeating everything bricky says over and over because smooth brain

[@sheevismycity4789]

Brick has got it completely backwards. The sisters faith is so stong it influences the warp, not the other way around. The warp isn't "why" they have faith. At least not beyond how the warp sustains basic existence and emotion ect. Even then faith can persist without some of that.

“We must destroy additional pylons”

[@SpamRage]

I feel so bad for bricky having to let that clown ride his coat tails

[@stratis1274]

Sisters of Battle are the 40K Green Lanterns sheer force of will to make their faith work, lol.

[@remygallardo7364]

In this story; The Necrons and the Mechanicus engage in Gurren Lagann level shenanigans because an inquisitor got a lil blow-up-a-pipeline-y.

[@gabrielchin4161]

One of the reasons I like Vashtorr is because he still does things directly, compared to the other gods in general.

[@lukefishlock2715]

You discription of the Admech vs the Necrons is hilarious. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@thefanciesttortoise557]

Cawl is the type of guy to actually test a hydrogen bomb against a coughing baby

[@jajordan2106]

What would win a hydrogen bomb or a billion coughing babies?

[@fernhausluv44]

39:03 - It's not possible for a person, let alone TWO people to be this wrong. As both a Jojo and W40k fan...grave psychic pain has been bestowed upon me.

[@solidsentinel1285]

I can’t wait for Vashtor to find the lock and open it up to the Kahn

[@mtvjacknife816]

23:06 What if they're actually just suggesting that the faith in the emperor does not actually work through the chaos warp? and faith in the emperor is actually "real power" outside of the warp?

[@bonogiamboni4830]

51:40 lmao, bricky said "this train has just arrived at its spot" *literally* right as the train i'm on stopped at its station. Vashtorr is managing to meme his way to realspace even outside of the nexus.

[@nomcarver4436]

38:29 your telling me cawl had a gogo gadget deploy backhhole thing on the ready? Don’t we love man made doomsday machines from the golden age of technology beyond my comprehension.

[@rahjar]

The doomsday-off had a certain Duck Dodgers in the 24th and a half century vs marvin the martian vibe...

[@aquaisuseful682]

It’s like a giant nerd science fair. CAWL: NO I HAVE THE BIGGER GUN Silent King: BEGONE FOR I AM SUPERIOR!

[@madisonmcclure8243]

Jeez! What is with the death rate of astropaths? I can’t think of a single moment I’ve heard y’all talk about them (minus Olivia?) where there wasn’t one exploding, tearing their eyes out, or just simply dying at the drop of a hat. Somebody hates Garmin.

[@ajackass5950]

Ao DK only says " yeah" and poorly sumerizes what was just said💀

[@khylerbane4523]

This went from a Necron Admech war to Jackass, arms race edition.

[@connorsmith1005]

Next poster should be Rap Rock Vashtor

[@gabeitch8779]

Chad imperium breaks necron toy, soyjack silent king cries dishonorable combat.

[@nicholaspokorny5058]

When you guys described mountains being yanked off of a planet, I was thinking of Mega-Maid from Spaceballs.

[@percevilleburns7100]

We all know that bricky is not single and deffidently talking to the people in the walls

[@Azrael178]

Admech Vs necrons is a "warp free zone TM" Somehow demons win...

[@RolandTheJabberwocky]

Vashtorr being like,"Y'all finished with that half a planet? 👀"

[@IceZachara]

The way all episodes should end - a Limp Bizkit reference which forces Bricky to rage quit

[@Volvith]

Throwing black holes and dying stars at each other is somehow the most Necron V.S. Cawl bullshit. Necrons: "We will blast these inferior monkeys out of existence. How dare they think they're equal to u--" Cawl: *>casually yeets a black hole that eats half a planet

[@muthpeterpatrik]

I like that the guys don't get it about faith : not the warp furckery that comes with faith in wh40k is the thing that helps the faithful in the pariah nexus. It is faith itself. Intrinsically faith gives guidiance for the believers (it does not matter what they believe in), and in the nexus you lose motivation and purpose. Faith gives those.

[@the-answer-is-42]

Technically you could argue that the nexus could cause people to lose faith as well.

[@sheevismycity4789]

This. Like for the tepmlars it's about having a extremely structured motivation and will, which props you up in the absence of emotion. Or faced with a external influence of apathay. They do their duties because they are so fundamental to them, integrated into their very psyche.

[@muthpeterpatrik]

@the-answer-is-42 Yes, of course , and most of the time it does. But it seems it has problems with fanatics
