I love how Ogryn have had an increase in intelligence in recent days. At first they had just enough braincells to count to 3, make the sense sentences a 5 year old can muster, and shot every bullet they had because "haha! Gun loud!" But now- now they can actually think! Not much, but still. Trigger discipline, philosophy, memories of what momma said years ago, etc. In the ever growing darkness that is 40k, Ogryn are a small but bright light in the shadows. Emperor bless their naive but inspiring hearts.

[@weaponizedlizardmen360]

@@vincentlee7359 no, they're not the same. Ogryns have been described in the past as essentially giant animals. Relying on instinct most of the time rather than brain power. It's only been recently where it has been changed to that ogryns are now decently capable thinkers. The "smart" ones are of course the ones that have the bonehead chip installed but "normal" orgyns now can at least speak correctly and think for themselves. They're still dumb but not giant beasts in the shape of a humanoid. They're more like giant 7 year old's.

I can see him sitting on the edge of his cot, bent over this tiny vox recorder in his palm extra carefully because he doesn't want to break it and upset Elise. I can see the emotions on his big face as his mind occassionally drifts a bit before he corrects himself. My favorite part is when he mentions fighting chaos marines In melee because i know he sat up and puffed his chest out in pride because he knows that was a hard fight.

I always love when people in command respect Ogryrns, they may be slow but they love so deeply and are so selflessly loyal to there friends, and as shown by this one can even out muscle and take down space marines if they get into close combat. I honestly would of read a whole series just about Ms Elise and her Ogryrn bodyguard ☺️

[@ComotoseOnAnime]

Course they can, Space Marines are 2.3 meters tall, most Ogryns if they're not hunched down too much are around 3 meters tall and about half a meter wider than most space Marines, it'd be like an Ork Nob bearing down on a Marine, they can rip em limb from limb if they get their hands on em, it's just usually they get hit with a bolter shell before they can get the chance or the marine has a superior melee weapon than a combat knife and several hundred years of melee experience. But like all things Space Marines aren't invincible. If they're caught out in the open and are unfortunate enough to be at a disadvantage in reach or leverage, they're going to get bodied by those adorable lugs.

Back when I still played the table top game, a friend of mine found out the hard way to neve mix Commissars and Ogryn bodyguards in the same command squad. In those days at least, if a squad's morale broke an attached commissary would automatically execute the squad leader to keep the squad from retreating.Ogryn bodyguards auto-attacked anyone in melee distance who killed their VIP, so a bad leadership check would result in the commissar killing your army's leader and then immediately getting pasted by the Ogryn standing 2 feet away.

I'm only 5'10, but I've had the "large guy" frame my whole life. I legitimately have trouble walking through door ways straight on my shoulders and back are so broad. I've always been freakishly strong. As a kid I was able to lift other kids up above my head. I was also in martial arts from a young age and always considered myself to be the protector and guardian of my friends. I'm decently intelligent, I've worked in aerospace and other complicated professions. But I've always felt my best characteristics were my loyalty and willingness to defend and protect the weak and innocent at any cost. I've been reading up on Ogryns a lot lately. They're starting to really steal my heart. Stuff like this just paints how pure hearted these guys actually are. They're about as pure hearted as a real warrior/soldier can get. At the end of the day, when violence is involved, if you have any love or compassion in your heart, you have to find ways to justify, normalize, and even trivialize what you're doing. They enjoy battle and conflict, but not for the blood shed, simply because they get to be who they are. Unbridled potential. A true machine bred for purpose. Like a thorough bred race horse. It cares not for the shady betting, cares not for the rain. Cares not for the result, cares not for the crowd. It simply wants to perform because that's what it has spent it's life training to do. Ogryns may enjoy the blood shed and laugh a little at their exploits, but at the end of the day, they're fighting because they love their small'uns and simply want to protect them. They have this very Lenny and the bunny vibe, without accidentally snapping it's neck. This shit made me cry. It's so wholesome. I want an ogryn friend
