“Your arrogance blinds you, Inquisitor, and makes you unable to see how far you have fallen. Once, my kind would have been proud to call you ally, even friend. Now I dirty my hand shaking yours.” The Farseer’s mask remained still, but her disgust was still evident. “Am I to believe that your kind is somehow still at their pinnacle, xeno?” the Inquisitor responded, the thinnest sneer lining their lips. The Farseer turned to look towards the stars. “No. My kind has fallen far, but yours has fallen further.” “At least my kind doesn’t have a god devoted to devouring their souls,” the Inquisitor snorted. The Farseer looked back and tilted their head just slightly. “Oh?”

Apparently, back during the Eldar's peak years, Craftworlds used to be some kind of merchant/exploration ships, which would make the people who used and lived in it the Ancient Eldar equivalent of Rogue Traders. And also, just like their human equivalent, the Ancient Eldar noble class equivalent used to really look down on these Proto-Craftworlders... Yet these 'noble' Eldars were also the ones who murder-fucked Slaanesh into existence. The fact that it's the outcasts of the Ancient Eldar society and their descendants that now makes up the majority of the Eldar that survived to the present time is a delicious irony.

For those wondering there is actually a 6th named Craftworld you can play as called Altansar though I don't fault him too much as they did only recently come back from the Eye of Terror when their most famous member Maugen Ra found and piloted them out just as the Great Rift formed. They are a very umm shy lot since they aren't seen without their armor and they tend to barely speak above a whisper which if you've been in the Eye for 12k years it's understandable. Because of this though they are viewed with suspicion by the other Craftworlds but if Maugen Ra is around they won't say anything. They also full heartedly support the Ynnari if I recall.

The Aeldari won, sent their message, stuck around long enough to help the White Scars send theirs, and both withdrew. I also just made that story up, but it probably happened at some point.

The interesting part about Alaitoc is that their rules reflect a fighting force of sneaky rangers, that is almost entirely at odds with the culture of the Craftworld proper. Which makes perfect sense narratively: 99.999% of the time, if you're in armed conflict with Alaitoc, you're fighting their outriders and rangers. Just because of how insular and isolationist the core of their polity is. Which means if, for whatever reason, you wanted to run a Craftworld army that reflected Alaitoc's _core_ population - the highly regimented and disciplined "home guard" - you'd be better served using the custom Craftworld rules. It's just very odd, albeit logical, that "Alaitoc" rules reflect more the outcasts and peripheral population, rather than the Craftworld as it is described in the lore. While the books talk about Alaitoc as being the most disciplined about their Path, you aren't running those guys. You're running the guys who deliberately deviate from that culture.

[@kharnmelchiah4038]

I think its interesting how different it can be when it comes to language. Wraithbone in german localisation is known as "Phantomkristall" which would translate to "phantom/wraith crystal". The bonesingers are also known as "Kristallsänger"(crystal singers). Makes me wonder how much different other stuff is called. Seeing the stuff, it makes sense to call it bone as crystals are usually shiny, so I wonder why the localisation team for German thought "okay, we call it crystal, fuck it"

Hey Shy? Your illustrations do more justice to these eldaari designs than their original creators.

6:49, um eldar aren't inspired by Japanese stuff. They're actually based on Greeks. Ulthwe is Delphi and biel-tan is Sparta, also dire avengers have crests on thier helms like Greek warriors. Like I don't know how you came to the conclusion that the eldar are based on Japanese stuff especially when the tau are a faction.

Also Celtic and Gaelic

Me, who has never read into elder before: "Oh I dunno, yellow and blue isn't that bad of a colour sch--" "Oh."

[@sethzac2424]

Unlike the last attempt this craftworld episode wasn’t a letdown, and I’m actually looking forward hearing more

[@lolmeister9764]

The chapter titles got me rolling, keep it up guys

[@judeblack4360]

36:15 Now I’m imagining an Iyanden wraith construct krumping on the battlefield in front of some poor guardsman

[@TheGallantDrake]

that was an excellent "lah di dah di dah"

As they fucked up and talked about everything else but the topic I'll cover this important part of GW LORE: Grandmaster Bip'bop, Which?-King of Craftworld Ahrtsan, is known for using needleguns with needles harder than polycrete. Their secret?: master bonesingers leaving paintbrushes in a pot of gunmetal grey for two weeks and cured to dry with a hardness of 12 on the Mohs scale. They also have an overly complicated but perfectly thin paint scheme consisting of multiple intersecting chequerboard patterns. The only player who has ever fielded an Ahrtsan Craftworld army was later revealed to be an iron man wearing a flesh suit. Their duplicity was revealed the moment they played an Eldar army unironically.

Probably already been said somewhere here, and I’m not combing through 500 odd comments to see, but the big kit bash ork was made by the store manger of the Manchester UK GW and it’s even better in person 😁

[@TheMagnumDon]

oh shit, a Dornian Heresy Episode? would absolutely love to see it

[@eichler721]

The Necrons are the most powerful no question. However the Necrons want bodies again and to get their souls back. That's the only reason the Tyranids and Chaos are the most dangerous to the galaxy cause they want to eat and destroy it. Edit: also Eldar Wraith Constructs are very powerful and deadly so lucky for the Imperium they are rare and not something the Eldar seek.

[@Rajunganclips]

[@sergiovergaramontemiranda2116]

Ahh yes the Vanilla space elves. After the so much BDSM flavor finally some classic food

[@warsmith5849]

Few days back I fell asleep while listening to this podcast. Dnow why but I had a dream, where I was on a date with mechanicus girl, we went to the cinema and she gifted me eye augmentation, cuz I wear glasses. I thought that was Hella cute and I accepted them.

[@pifilixxiv3192]

Imagine getting a bionic eye as a date gift, Hella weird but cute

[@Matwho]

WH40k has always said, sure the lasgun is weak but wait till you get shot at by a million of them. Meanwhile eldar in 7th, "Ok? They still won't hit." (insert neo meme.)

[@animalbrained]

baby bricky and dk being mortified by blood bonds, a very common trope, is extremely funny to me

[@AceTaxiaGaming]

Wraith Guard are like Termies
